Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner filter bag comprising a bag wall and a holding plate connected thereto, which can be connected, in particular brought into engagement, with a holding device of a vacuum cleaner.
  • Vacuum cleaner filter bags are today mainly made of nonwovens. Due to their excellent dust holding capacity, vacuum cleaner filter bags made of nonwovens have virtually replaced filter bags made of paper.
  • the production of filter bags made of nonwovens differs fundamentally from the production of PandabeuteIn. Common are rectangular flat bags, which are formed from an upper and a lower side wall, which are welded together at the edge.
  • Such filter bags are for example from the DE 201 01 466 , the EP 0 161 790 , the EP 0 639 061 , the EP 1 059 056 or the EP 1 661 500 known.
  • the vacuum cleaner filter bags are usually distributed several times folded in a carton. In the folded state, the vacuum cleaner filter bags are then inserted by the consumer in the designated space of the vacuum cleaner. Since the space of the vacuum cleaner usually in at least one spatial direction has a smaller extent than the vacuum cleaner filter bag, the filter bag in the space can often develop insufficient. As a result, the filter bag may under certain circumstances unfold its capacity insufficient. On the one hand it can happen that not all areas of the side walls are flowed through evenly. As a result, the media passage speed can increase and the separation efficiency of the filter bag decreases. On the other hand, not so much space can be available for the storage of the dust particles.
  • the service life of the filter bag may decrease, since the pressure drop of the bag increases rapidly and thus the volume flow which is conveyed through the vacuum cleaner drops relatively quickly. Inadequate deployment also reduces the usable volume available for receiving dust. A partially unfolded bag can hold correspondingly less dust, the bag must be changed earlier.
  • the invention provides a vacuum cleaner filter bag comprising a bag wall and a holding plate connected thereto, which can be connected, in particular brought into engagement, with a holding device of a vacuum cleaner, characterized in that the vacuum cleaner filter bag additionally comprises a fastening device, by means of which part of the bag wall of the vacuum cleaner filter bag can be fixed in at least one spatial direction during operation of the vacuum cleaner.
  • the vacuum cleaner filter bag By providing in addition to the mounting plate fastening device, it is possible to position the vacuum cleaner filter bag in the space of a vacuum cleaner, that a better development and thus a lower tendency to clog the filter bag can be achieved. In particular, during operation, a smaller volume flow drop can be made possible than with a corresponding filter bag without fastening device. Thus, the life of the vacuum cleaner filter bag can be improved.
  • a part of the bag wall can therefore be fixed on the holding plate in at least one spatial direction, in particular in all spatial directions or absolutely, in particular with respect to the mounting device of the vacuum cleaner and / or with respect to the space of the vacuum cleaner.
  • Another part of the bag wall can be fixed by means of the fastening device, in particular with respect to the space of the vacuum cleaner.
