Figur 1 zeigt einen Bodenstaubsauger 1 in Betriebsstellung, d. h. mit den nicht gezeigten Rädern auf dem Boden. Das Gehäuse 2 des Staubsaugers 1 ist in seinem in Zugrichtung rechten Bereich 3 mit einer Haltevorrichtung 4 ausgestattet. Diese ist dazu vorgesehen, ein korrespondierendes Rastelement an einem Saugwerkzeug (nicht dargestellt), insbesondere an einer Bodendüse, aufzunehmen. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine sogenannte Parkposition. Ein Staubsauger mit einer Bodendüse, verbunden über einen Saugschlauch und ein Saugrohr und in der Parkposition aufgenommen, ist beispielsweise aus der DE 40 36 314 C2 bekannt und deshalb hier nicht näher dargestellt. Figur 2 zeigt den Staubsauger 1 auf der Gehäuserückseite 5 stehend in einer sogenannten Aufbewahrungsstellung. In den Figuren 1 und 2 ist die Haltevorrichtung 4 im rechten Gehäusebereich, in Figur 1 noch eine eine weitere Haltevorrichtung 6 im hinteren Gehäusebereich erkennbar. Eine dritte Haltevorrichtung auf der linken Gehäuseseite ist vorhanden, aber in den Figuren nicht erkennbar. Bei dem gezeigten Staubsauger sind beide Haltevorrichtungen 4 im seitlichen Bereich mit Beleuchtungseinrichtungen ausgestattet, siehe auch Figuren 2 und 4. FIG. 1 shows a canister vacuum cleaner 1 in the operating position, ie with the wheels not shown on the ground. The housing 2 of the vacuum cleaner 1 is equipped with a holding device 4 in its right-hand region 3 in the pulling direction. This is intended to receive a corresponding locking element on a suction tool (not shown), in particular on a floor nozzle. This results in a so-called parking position. A vacuum cleaner with a floor nozzle, connected via a suction hose and a suction tube and received in the park position, for example, from DE 40 36 314 C2 known and therefore not shown here. FIG. 2 shows the vacuum cleaner 1 on the rear side of the housing 5 standing in a so-called storage position. In the Figures 1 and 2 is the holding device 4 in the right housing area, in FIG. 1 nor a further holding device 6 in the rear housing area recognizable. A third holding device on the left side of the housing is present, but not visible in the figures. In the vacuum cleaner shown both holding devices 4 are equipped in the lateral area with lighting devices, see also Figures 2 and 4 ,

In der Figur 1 ist ebenfalls ein Hauptschalter 19 in Form einer Fußtaste erkennbar, über den ein in den Zeichnungen nicht erkennbares Staubsaugergebläse eingeschaltet wird.In the FIG. 1 is also a main switch 19 can be seen in the form of a foot switch, via which a not visible in the drawings vacuum cleaner fan is turned on.

Wie in der Figur 2 und insbesondere in der Figur 3 erkennbar ist, umfassen die seitlichen Haltevorrichtungen 4 einen Einführbereich 7 und einen Haltebereich 8 für das nicht gezeigte Rastelement an der Bodendüse. Beide Bereiche 7 und 8 sind jeweils mit einer eher punktuell wirkenden Beleuchtungseinrichtung ausgestattet, im Folgenden Punktbeleuchtungen 9 bzw. 10 genannt. Unter den seitlichen Haltevorrichtungen ist jeweils eine weitere, streifenförmige Beleuchtungseinrichtung angeordnet, im Folgenden Leuchtstreifen 11 genannt. Die Punktbeleuchtungen 9 und 10 erleichtern dem Benutzer das Einführen des Rastelements, der Leuchtstreifen 11 dient darüber hinaus noch zusätzlich zur Ausleuchtung des Saugbereichs und sogar zur Beleuchtung des Aufbewahrungsraums des Staubsaugers 1.Like in the FIG. 2 and in particular in the FIG. 3 can be seen, the lateral holding devices 4 comprise an insertion region 7 and a holding portion 8 for the not shown locking element on the floor nozzle. Both areas 7 and 8 are each equipped with a rather punctually acting illumination device, hereinafter referred to as point illuminations 9 and 10 respectively. In each case, a further, strip-shaped illumination device is arranged below the lateral holding devices, referred to below as light strips 11. The point lights 9 and 10 facilitate the insertion of the locking element to the user, the light strip 11 also serves in addition to the illumination of the suction area and even to illuminate the storage space of the vacuum cleaner. 1

Figur 4 zeigt die Beleuchtungseinrichtungen 9 bis 11 mit den seitlichen Haltevorrichtungen als Einzelheit. Auf beiden Seiten sind Beleuchtungsplatinen 12 erkennbar, die im eingebauten Zustand im Gehäuseinneren liegen. Sie sind über eine Leitung 13 mit einer Versorgungs- und Steuerelektronik 14 verbunden. Auf jeder Beleuchtungsplatine sind mehrere LED's 15 als Lichtquellen angeordnet, siehe Figur 5. Von den Lichtquellen führen an jeder Beleuchtungsplatine Lichtleiter 16 in den Einführbereich und in den Haltebereich und bilden dort die Punktbeleuchtungen 9 und 10. Weitere LED's 15 sind einer Sichtscheibe 17 zugeordnet, die ebenfalls als Lichtleiter fungiert und den Leuchtstreifen 11 bildet. Die Oberflächen der Lichtleiter 16 und 17 schließen bündig mit der Oberfläche des Gehäuses 2 ab. FIG. 4 shows the lighting devices 9 to 11 with the side holding devices as a detail. On both sides lighting panels 12 can be seen, which are in the installed state inside the housing. They are connected via a line 13 to a supply and control electronics 14. On each lighting board, a plurality of LED's 15 are arranged as light sources, see FIG. 5 , Of the light sources lead on each lighting board light guide 16 in the insertion and in the holding area and form there the point lights 9 and 10. Further LED's 15 are associated with a lens 17, which also acts as a light guide and the light strip 11 is formed. The surfaces of the light guides 16 and 17 are flush with the surface of the housing 2.

Die Versorgungs- und Steuerelektronik 14 ist mit einer Schaltungseinrichtung 18 ausgestattet, die bei einer Betätigung des Hauptschalters 19 (siehe Figur 1) zusätzlich zum Staubsaugergebläse die Beleuchtungseinrichtungen 9 bis 11 einschaltet. Die Schaltungseinrichtung 18 umfasst außerdem zwei Kondensatoren 20, welche eine Stromzufuhr von 30 bis 60 Sekunden zu den Beleuchtungsplatinen 12 aufrecht erhalten, nachdem der Hauptschalter erneut betätigt und damit der Staubsauger 1 ausgeschaltet wurde. Diese Zeit reicht für eine weitere Beleuchtung zum Ziehen des Netzsteckers (nicht dargestellt), Abstellen des Staubsaugers 1 und Einführen des Rastelements. Es versteht sich von selbst, dass die Stromzufuhr von 30 bis 60 Sekunden zu den Beleuchtungsplatinen 12 auch nach dem Ziehen des Netzsteckers ohne Betätigung des Hauptschalters 19 aufrecht erhalten bleibt.The supply and control electronics 14 is equipped with a circuit device 18, which upon actuation of the main switch 19 (see FIG. 1 ) turns on the lighting devices 9 to 11 in addition to the vacuum cleaner fan. The circuit device 18 also includes two capacitors 20, which maintain a power supply of 30 to 60 seconds to the lighting boards 12 after the main switch is operated again and thus the vacuum cleaner 1 has been turned off. This time is sufficient for further lighting to unplug the power plug (not shown), parking the vacuum cleaner 1 and inserting the locking element. It goes without saying that the power supply of 30 to 60 seconds to the lighting boards 12 is maintained even after pulling the power plug without operating the main switch 19.
