Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with a suction hose, the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the suction hose of a vacuum cleaner is a pipe having an end portion with a suction port for flexibly sucking up dust and the like and attachable to a suction port in the housing of the vacuum cleaner.
  • a dust-generating tool device such as a floor grinder, a planer or a drill / cutter
  • the suction hose serves as a connecting line, which connects the tool unit with the vacuum cleaner.
  • dust-laden air is transported from the dust-generating tool directly to the receptacle of the vacuum cleaner through the suction hose.
  • the suction hose has a length which is usually greater than the device dimension of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the suction hose could be accidentally transported to a location other than the vacuum cleaner, which would lead to undesirable work delays.
  • a vacuum cleaner with a housing and with a suction hose, which has a fixable on the housing device terminal end and an end with a suction port at the other, free end, as well as with a housing arranged Saugschlauchhalte vibration having a holding element with a protruding from the housing body, having a receptacle for partially holding the tail of the suction hose.
  • the tail of the suction hose can be set in the receptacle of the holding element.
  • the Receiving the holding element has a cylindrical portion-shaped configuration for receiving the end of the suction hose, said tail has such an outer contour that this is held in the inserted state by clamping in the receptacle.
  • the recording of the holding element and the tail of the suction hose must be exactly matched. If this is not the case, the suction hose is not sufficiently securely held on the housing of the vacuum cleaner after winding.
  • suction hose is usually wound up only roughly by the users of the vacuum cleaner, so that under certain circumstances, the tail of the suction hose does not come to rest in a position for insertion into the receptacle of the holding element of Saugschlauchhalte ultrasound. If necessary, therefore, the last winding of the suction hose can not be sufficiently tight, so that the suction hose is wound up only loosely and therefore can fall down during transport of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a vacuum cleaner which does not have the aforementioned disadvantages and allows a simple, flexible and secure fixing of different sections of the suction hose on the vacuum cleaner.
  • a first holding means for holding a first portion of the suction hose and a second holding means for holding a further portion of the suction hose are provided on the first holding element.
  • the at least one holding element thus has at least two attachment possibilities for at least two, mutually different sections of the suction hose.
  • an exact alignment of a particular section when winding the suction hose for a safe Fixation of the suction hose to the vacuum cleaner is no longer mandatory.
  • the fixation of the suction hose is no longer necessarily dependent on the formation of the tail of the suction hose alone and it can be used on the same vacuum cleaner various, designed according to the connection requirements suction hoses. This increases the flexibility and thus the scope of the vacuum cleaner.
  • Saugschlauchhalte acquired on a higher fitness for use over the useful life of the vacuum cleaner over the previously known solutions.
  • a suction hose is kept stable, so that even with vibrations, eg. B. due to the moving of the vacuum cleaner on an uneven surface, this does not accidentally fall from the vacuum cleaner. Damage to the suction hose, z. B. by grinding on the ground or due to other mechanical stresses, such as accidental crushing by a user's foot, are excluded.
  • the end piece provided at the free end of the suction hose has an outer contour that is tapered towards the free end, preferably conically, so that the end piece can be easily inserted into a receptacle of one of the retaining elements.
  • the Saugschlauchhalte pain comprises at least a second, spaced from the first holding element holding element, wherein the further holding element also has a projecting from the housing body, which has a further receptacle for partially holding a further portion of the suction hose.
  • a wound suction hose is fixed in the fixed state thus at least two points with additional clamping forces on the housing of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the Saugschlauchhalte pain may also have more than two, spaced apart holding elements. Especially for vacuum cleaners with large device dimensions or relatively long suction hoses is a Saugschlauchhalte vibration with more than two holding elements advantageous.
  • At least a third holding means for holding the further portion of the suction hose is provided on the second holding element, so that at this point an advantageous fixation of the corresponding portion of the suction hose is ensured.
  • the third holding means is formed analogously or at least similar to the first holding means on the first holding element.
  • At least a fourth holding means for holding a portion of the suction hose is provided on the second holding element, so that two different mounting options for fixing of corresponding portions of the suction hose are also given to the second holding element.
  • the receptacles are arranged at least by two holding elements on a common receiving axis, whereby the suction hose extends in the inserted state between these straight.
  • the second holding means and / or the fourth holding means comprises at least one provided on the inner contour of the corresponding receptacle retaining bead, which reduces the receiving cross-section of the corresponding receptacle at least partially.
  • the dimension of the receiving cross section of the receptacle is advantageously matched to the corresponding dimensions of the suction hose. Due to the regional narrowing by the retaining bead, a partially acting clamping force is exerted on the suction hose, which also on the suction hose axially, d. H. can take over forces acting in the direction of its longitudinal axis.
  • the suction hose is additionally fixed to the housing of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the suction hose usually has a corrugated tube-like outer structure.
  • the at least one retaining bead is therefore advantageously configured such that when a suction hose is inserted into the receptacle, this retaining bead engages in a wave trough, ie between two wave crests, of the corrugated pipe-like suction hose.
  • the suction hose is particularly advantageous secured against axial or along its longitudinal axis acting forces on the housing of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the corrugated tube-like suction hose is securely fixed in this case without significant mechanical stress.
  • the retaining bead advantageously extends along the inner radius of this receptacle. If the suction hose holding device comprises more than two holding elements, each with at least one receptacle, then all these receptacles advantageously each have at least one holding bead as an additional holding means, for example for fixing sections of the suction hose spaced apart from one another.
  • the first holding means and / or the third holding means comprises a plug connection, wherein in the merged state, the first element of the plug connection is preferably held by clamping in the second element of the plug connection.
  • the first element of the connector comprises a projection and the second element of the connector comprises a receiving groove for receiving the projection, which allows a simple configuration of the connector.
  • the projection is arranged on the corresponding holding element, wherein the projection at least partially surrounds the corresponding receptacle of the holding element and protrudes from the main body of the corresponding holding element, and the receiving groove is preferably provided on the outside of the free end of the suction hose, wherein the receiving groove at least partially along the Scope of the suction hose runs.
