- the invention has for its object to provide a comparison with the prior art improved vacuum cleaner with filter carrier.
- a vacuum cleaner with a stable support of the filter support to be provided.
- Vacuum cleaners are electrical energy powered devices for receiving dust, including both mains powered and battery or cordless tools.
- a vacuum cleaner may include, for example, a motor-blower unit for generating a suction air flow, a nozzle for collecting dust, a suction air guide, and a dust bag.
- the suction air can be freed from the dirt that can be kept away from the filter cloth and collected in the dust bag.
- the dust bag in the dust chamber of the vacuum cleaner which can be closed, for example, by a lid arranged.
- the dust chamber of the vacuum cleaner is limited by its inner surfaces, for example by the bottom, side and / or top surface.
- the suction air is connected via a connecting piece with the dust bag.
- the nozzle can be arranged for example on the lid of the dust chamber.
- the dust bag has a planar, ie flat filter flange with an inlet into which the nozzle, for example when closing the dust chamber cover, can dip.
- the filter flange In order to improve the seal between the nozzle and the inlet opening, the filter flange often has a seal at the inlet opening. In the mounted position is the Filter flange inserted into the filter carrier, so that the nozzle can dip into the inlet opening.
- the filter flange plane of the filter support means the plane that the planar filter flange defines in the mounted position.
- the planar filter flange thus lies, when it is mounted on the filter carrier, in the filter flange plane of the filter carrier.
- the projection of the support point or the axis of rotation onto the filter flange plane is to be understood as the geometric figure that arises due to a parallel projection directed perpendicular to the filter flange plane. It is an achievable advantage of the invention that can be stably supported by the Abstützabstand the filter support.
- a stable support of the filter support can be achieved on at least one support point, wherein at least one support point can rest on a support point.
- the support point according to the invention By the support point according to the invention and / or the support point, a stop for the filter support is reached. In this way, a reliable limitation of the pivoting range of the filter carrier can be achieved. Further, penetration of the filter carrier into the dust chamber, and thus a reduction of the dust volume which can be absorbed by a dust bag, can be avoided.
- the inventors have recognized that taking advantage of the law of leverage a high force acting on the filter support can be absorbed to a large extent by the support point. Usually the starting point of such a force, e.g. may occur due to accidental support of the user to the filter support, on the side facing away from the pivot of the filter support.
- the distance between the support point and the attachment point is less than the distance between the attachment point and the pivot, so that the force is transferable to a large extent on the support point on the support point.
- the support point is advantageously arranged at the location at which forces normally act on the filter support.
- a mechanically load-bearing filter carrier can be further achieved.
- Advantageously, can be minimized by the invention, the deformation of the filter support under a load, resulting in a long life of the filter support - A -

- the filter support is located on the support point, so that the filter support can assume a stable position when immersing the nozzle. The invention thus provides a reliable connection between nozzle and dust bag can be achieved.
- the support distance is at least one third of the length of the filter support.
- the length of the filter carrier is to be understood as the maximum extent of the filter carrier whose direction runs in the filter flange plane and is perpendicular to the projection of the axis of rotation. This makes it possible to increase the stability of the support of the filter carrier.
- a force acting on the filter support force can be absorbed to a large extent by the support point, whereby the stability of the filter support can be increased.
- the support point is arranged on a second inner surface of the dust chamber.
- the first inner surface is fixed, particularly preferably immovably connected to the second inner surface.

- the mounted filter flange has an inlet opening, and the distance of the center of the inlet opening to the projection of the axis of rotation on the filter flange level of the Abstützabstand deviates by more than 50%.
- the distance of the center of the inlet opening deviates from the support distance by at most 20%, particularly preferably by at most 10%.
- this can effectively transmit the force exerted on the filter support when the nozzle is dipped onto the support, with short force paths being available to dissipate this force.
- a small deformation of the filter support is reached when dipping the nozzle into the opening of the filter flange, so that the filter support can not escape the nozzle.
- the filter flange has a seal at the inlet opening.
- a filter unit is arranged on a second inner surface, which has the support point. During normal operation of the vacuum cleaner, the filter unit is at least partially flowed through by the suction air.
- the filter unit can remove and / or add particles to the suction air, and can thus represent an additional filter in addition to the dust bag.
- the filter unit can be realized, for example, as a motor protection filter, or add odorants to the suction air.
- the filter unit is removable, wherein this is mounted in an end position in which the filter unit is in its intended operating position.
- the filter carrier has at least one wing-like element on which the support point is arranged.
- the wing-like element is from the flange guide, whereby a stable support of the filter carrier can be made possible. Via the flange guide, the filter flange can be guided into the mounted position in which the filter flange is arranged on the filter carrier.

Furthermore, it is possible to avoid pressing off the inserted dust bag, which makes it possible to achieve that the dust bag can unfold freely. Due to the curvature of the wing-like element whose stability can be increased, whereby a deformation of the filter support when supporting on at least one support point can be reduced.
- the filter carrier has a guide projection on the support point for stabilizing the position of the filter carrier.
- a guide projection on the support point for stabilizing the position of the filter carrier.
- the guide projection can be achieved by the guide projection, that in a force acting support point and support can come to rest safely on each other. Further, this position of the filter support can be securely maintained by the guide projection.

- FIG. 1 shows a filter carrier in a dust chamber of a vacuum cleaner
- 2 shows a filter carrier with a mounted planar filter flange
- 3 shows a projection of a support point and the axis of rotation of the filter support on the filter flange plane.
- FIG. 4 a filter carrier in a dust chamber of a vacuum cleaner with a filter unit.
- FIG. 1 shows a filter carrier 20 in a dust chamber 11 of a vacuum cleaner 10.
- FIG. 2 shows the filter carrier 20 with a mounted planar filter flange 30 of a dust bag, wherein the dust bag is not shown for purposes of illustration.
- Fig. 3 shows the projection 25 of a support point 23 and the projection 26 of the axis of rotation 22 of the filter support 20 on a Filterflanschebene 24.
- the dust chamber 1 1 of the vacuum cleaner 10 can be closed by a lid, not shown in the figures.
- the dust bag for receiving the dust from the suction air is disposed in the intended operation of the vacuum cleaner 10 in the dust chamber 1 1, and has a planar filter flange 30.
- the vacuum cleaner further comprises a filter support 20 for receiving the planar filter flange 30, wherein the filter support 20 is rotatably mounted via a rotary joint 21 with a rotation axis 22 on a first inner surface 12 of the dust chamber 1 1.
- the filter support 20 has a flange guide.
- the filter support 20 has two support points 23 for supporting the filter support on two support points 14 of the dust chamber.
- a safe immersion of a nozzle not shown in the figures in the inlet opening 31 of the filter flange 30 when closing the lid is made possible, since a yielding of the filter support 20 is prevented by the support.
- a Seal 32 is arranged, through which the seal between the nozzle and the inlet opening 31 is improved. For reasons of illustration, only one support point 23 and support point 14 are shown in the figures.
- the filter support 20 further includes a filter flange plane 24 defined by the mounted planar filter flange 30. From Fig. 3 it can be seen that the projection 25 of the support point 23 on the Filterflanschebene 24 has a support distance 27 to the projection 26 of the rotation axis 22 on the Filterflanschebene 24, wherein the support distance 27 is perpendicular to the projection 26 of the rotation axis 22.
