Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Netzbetreibbaren vacuum cleaner with a housing, comprising a usable as a floor space backplane and side walls, wherein in the rear wall a plug shaft for receiving a power plug is arranged.
  • Such a vacuum cleaner has in a known manner a power cord with a power plug, via which the vacuum cleaner is connected to the mains.
  • a cable drum inside the housing, to which the mains cable can be wound up by means of an automatic winding device ( DE 10 2008 003 351 A1 ).
  • the power plug When wound up, the power plug then protrudes from a plug slot, from which it can be removed via an access opening.
  • the plug shaft including the access opening, is arranged in the rear wall of the housing. In this position, the mains plug must lie in the connector slot so far that the contacts are located inside the connector slot and do not touch the ground when the vacuum cleaner is placed on the rear panel. This applies to all country variants of power plugs. At the necessary depth of the plug shafts therefore removal of the power plug is difficult.
  • the EP 1 181 886 A2 shows a vacuum cleaner in the rear wall and side wall cylindrically merge into each other.
  • the plug shaft is arranged in this vacuum cleaner approximately in the one-clock position between the rear wall and side wall.
  • the invention thus raises the problem in a vacuum cleaner of the type mentioned to facilitate the removal of the power plug.
  • the achievable with the invention advantages result from the fact that the access opening of the connector shaft extends into a side wall of the housing. As a result, the access range is increased to the power plug without the cross section of the connector shaft must be extended. In this case, it is particularly advantageous if the part of the access opening extending into the side wall at least partially releases the base part of the plug. The user no longer has to pull on the smooth and hard-to-grip contacts.
  • the part of the access opening extending into the side wall has a triangular ground plan.
  • a semicircular floor plan could be used.
  • An extended plug bay area below the power plug allows the user to more easily grip the plug from multiple sides.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 show a inventively designed vacuum cleaner 1 in different views. From the in FIG. 1 shown rear view can be seen that in the housing 2 of the vacuum cleaner 1, a plug shaft 3 is arranged, from which a power plug 4 protrudes. The figure also shows that the outer contour 5 of the connector shaft 3, which defines the access opening 6, is asymmetrical. The power cord connected to the power plug 4 is wound in a known manner on a cable drum located in the housing 2. Power cord and cable drum are not recognizable due to their arrangement in the housing 2 in the figures.
  • FIG. 2 shows that the access opening 6 of the vacuum cleaner 1 according to the invention extends not only in the rear wall 7, but to the right in the direction of travel side wall 8.
  • a triangular section 9 in the outline of the access opening 6 is pulled so deeply into the side wall 8 that the base part 10 of the power plug 4 is partially released and the user can grab the plug 4 there.
  • the plug 4 then no longer has to be pulled out at the contacts 11.
  • an extended plug bay area 12 below the power plug 4 the user can grip the plug 4 easier from several sides.

Description

  • Die Erfindung betrifft einen netzbetreibbaren Bodenstaubsauger mit einem Gehäuse, umfassend eine als Standfläche benutzbare Rückwand und Seitenwände, wobei in der Rückwand ein Steckerschacht zur Aufnahme eines Netzsteckers angeordnet ist.
  • Ein solcher Staubsauger besitzt in bekannter Weise ein Netzkabel mit einem Netzstecker, über welchen der Staubsauger an das Stromnetz angeschlossen ist. Bei Bodenstaubsaugern ist es üblich, im Inneren des Gehäuses eine Kabeltrommel anzuordnen, auf die das Netzkabel mit Hilfe einer automatischen Wickelvorrichtung aufwickelbar ist ( DE 10 2008 003 351 A1 ). Im aufgewickelten Zustand ragt dann der Netzstecker aus einem Steckerschacht, aus dem er über eine Zugriffsöffnung entnommen werden kann. Bei dem bekannten Bodenstaubsauger ist der Steckerschacht samt Zugriffsöffnung in der Gehäuserückwand angeordnet. In dieser Position muss der Netzstecker so weit im Steckerschacht liegen, dass die Kontakte sich im Inneren des Steckerschachts befinden und beim Abstellen des Staubsaugers auf der Rückwand nicht den Boden berühren. Dies gilt für alle Ländervarianten von Netzsteckern. Bei der notwendigen Tiefe der Steckerschächte ist deshalb eine Entnahme des Netzsteckers schwierig.
  • Die EP 1 181 886 A2 zeigt einen Staubsauger, bei dem Rückwand und Seitenwand zylinderförmig ineinander übergehen. Der Steckerschacht ist bei diesem Staubsauger etwa in der Ein-Uhr-Position zwischen Rückwand und Seitenwand angeordnet.
  • Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, bei einem Bodenstaubsauger der eingangs genannten Art die Entnahme des Netzsteckers zu erleichtern.
  • Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem durch einen Bodenstaubsauger mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.
  • Die mit der Erfindung erreichbaren Vorteile ergeben sich dadurch, dass sich die Zugriffsöffnung des Steckerschachts bis in eine Seitenwand des Gehäuses erstreckt. Hierdurch wird der Zugriffsbereich auf den Netzstecker vergrößert, ohne dass der Querschnitt des Steckerschachts erweitert werden muss. Dabei ist es insbesondere vorteilhaft, wenn der sich in die Seitenwand erstreckende Teil der Zugriffsöffnung das Basisteil des Steckers wenigstens teilweise freigibt. Der Benutzer muss dann nicht mehr an den glatten und schwer zu greifenden Kontakten ziehen.
  • Es ist zweckmäßig, wenn der sich in die Seitenwand erstreckende Teil der Zugriffsöffnung einen dreieckigen Grundriss besitzt. Alternativ könnte ein halbkreisförmiger Grundriss zum Einsatz kommen.
  • Durch einen erweiterten Steckerschacht-Bereich unterhalb des Netzsteckers kann der Benutzer den Stecker einfacher von mehreren Seiten greifen.
  • Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen rein schematisch dargestellt und wird nachfolgend näher beschrieben. Es zeigt
    • Figur 1 die Rückansicht eines Bodenstaubsaugers,
    • Figur 2 eine perspektivische Ansicht des Bodenstaubsaugers gemäß Figur 1, und Figur 3 den auf die Rückwand gestellten Bodenstaubsauger.
  • Die Figuren 1 bis 3 zeigen einen erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Bodenstaubsauger 1 in verschiedenen Ansichten. Aus der in Figur 1 gezeigten Rückansicht ist erkennbar, dass im Gehäuse 2 des Staubsaugers 1 ein Steckerschacht 3 angeordnet ist, aus dem ein Netzstecker 4 ragt. Die Figur zeigt außerdem, dass die äußere Kontur 5 des Steckerschachts 3, welche die Zugriffsöffnung 6 definiert, asymmetrisch ausgebildet ist. Das mit dem Netzstecker 4 verbundene Netzkabel ist in bekannter Weise auf eine im Gehäuse 2 befindliche Kabeltrommel gewickelt. Netzkabel und Kabeltrommel sind aufgrund ihrer Anordnung im Gehäuse 2 in den Figuren nicht erkennbar.
  • Figur 2 zeigt, dass sich die Zugriffsöffnung 6 des erfindungsgemäßen Staubsaugers 1 nicht nur in der Gehäuserückwand 7, sondern bis in die in Fahrtrichtung rechte Seitenwand 8 erstreckt. Dabei ist ein im Grundriss dreieckiger Ausschnitt 9 der Zugriffsöffnung 6 so tief in die Seitenwand 8 gezogen, dass das Basisteil 10 des Netzsteckers 4 teilweise freigegeben ist und der Benutzer den Stecker 4 dort greifen kann. Der Stecker 4 muss dann nicht mehr an den Kontakten 11 herausgezogen werden. Durch einen erweiterten Steckerschacht-Bereich 12 unterhalb des Netzsteckers 4 kann der Benutzer den Stecker 4 einfacher von mehreren Seiten greifen.
  • In Figur 3 ist erkennbar, dass die Kontakte 11 des Netztsteckers 4 auch bei auf der Gehäuserückwand 7 stehendem Staubsauger 1 nicht den Boden 13 berühren.
