Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner having an air flow passage and a first Luftströmungsumschabites adjacent to the air flow passage in which the air flow is deflected by a deflection angle from a plane of the flow channel.
  • the publication DE3311494A1 discloses a vacuum cleaner, in whose housing a flat, U-shaped air duct is installed.
  • the channel is fitted in a recess formed in the outer surface of the vacuum cleaner housing so as to protrude partially outward.
  • the air duct at one end of its outlet opening have a curved wall portion which is harmoniously adapted to the curved in the same way Lucasleitrippen the housing L predominantly videllyslasses.
  • SC16 a bagless vacuum cleaner, in which an air duct with a substantially rectangular cross section is divided by three partitions into four separate sub-channels. In arranged at the entrance and at the exit of this channel deflecting sections entering or exiting air is diverted by about 90 °.
  • a vacuum cleaner with a filter housing having an air flow passage and a filter cavity with a filter inserted therein.
  • the airflow passage is divided by one or more walls into a plurality of separate, elongate channels.
  • the channels are to the filter cavity open and there are adjacent to the filter. As a result, air entering through the inlet channels is deflected in the direction of the filter.
  • the publication EP 1 929 914 A2 discloses a vacuum cleaner with a fan downstream filter.
  • the filter is mounted in a housing on the narrow edges of a plurality of parallel webs, which form between them channels through which the exiting air from the filter and out of the vacuum cleaner is deflected.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an improved vacuum cleaner with an air flow passage and an adjoining the air flow passage shipsströmungsumschabites in which the air flow is deflected by a deflection angle from a plane of the flow channel to provide.
  • flow noise and the flow resistance should be kept low.
  • the vacuum cleaner should also be easy and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the partition wall of the air flow channel in the cover of the vacuum cleaner housing may lead to a harmonization of the guided through the channel air in the sense that the air flows through the channel substantially laminar.
  • vortex formation in the air flow deflection section can be counteracted, with the result that the Air flow also has a higher laminarity here.
  • the reduced vortex formation can result in significant noise reduction.
  • the flow resistance can be reduced, so that a larger amount of air can be promoted, which in turn has a positive effect on the dust absorption of the vacuum cleaner.
  • a vacuum cleaner is an electrical energy powered device for receiving dust, including both mains powered and battery powered devices.
  • a vacuum cleaner may e.g. a motor-blower unit for generating a suction air flow, a nozzle for collecting dust, a suction air guide for guiding the suction air flow, a Staubabscheideech and a filter.
  • a Staubabscheidetician is a device that removes dust-laden suction air from the dust.
  • the Staubabscheideisme may for example contain a dust bag or it may be formed as a vortex separator, which can be dispensed with a dust bag.
  • a dust collection unit may also include a filter to retain dust from the dust-laden air.
  • the filter may e.g. be designed as an exchangeable cartridge filter.
  • a plane of the air flow channel is a plane in which the flow channel extends.
  • the flow channel does not necessarily have to be straight. If it is curved, the plane of the flow channel is necessarily the plane of that curvature.
  • the air flow diverting portion directs the flow out of the plane of the air flow channel. Therefore, in a straight air flow passage, each plane of the variety of planes through which the air flow passage passes can be regarded as the plane of the air flow passage except for the plane parallel to the deflection of the air flow turning section (that is, parallel to the turning angle of the air flow turning section).
  • the Luftströmungsumschites can basically be in the flow direction before or after the air flow channel.
  • deflected does not necessarily mean that it is deflected out of the plane of the air flow channel, especially in the flow direction.
  • deflected in the case of an air flow deflecting section upstream of the air flow duct, it is deflected out of this plane in the direction opposite to the flow.
  • deflected means merely that the direction of the air flow at that of the air flow channel remote end of the Heilströmungsumschabitess is not in the plane of the air flow passage.
  • a preferred air flow channel is subdivided into two parallel sub-channels by exactly one partition wall, which measures substantially the entire cross-section of the air flow channel.
  • the partition at least partially projects into the first Luftströmungsumschabites.
  • a flow with particularly high laminarity is achievable.
  • further partition walls slow down the flow rather than increase its laminarity.
  • embodiments of the invention are of course conceivable in which several, in particular e.g. two, three or four partitions are provided which then channel e.g. divide into three, four or five subchannels.
  • the Luftströmungsumschabsacrificing upstream of the air flow passage in the flow direction that is, the air enters via the Luftströmungsumschabsacrificing in the air flow passage.
  • the Heilumlenkabsacrificing downstream of the air flow channel in the flow direction that is, the air exits through the Heilströmungsumschabites from the air flow channel.
  • the partition according to the invention can have a positive effect on the flow path. In particular, vortex can be avoided and thus the laminarity of the flow can be increased. As a result, flow noise can advantageously be reduced and the flow resistance reduced.
  • the vacuum cleaner comprises, in addition to a first Luftströmungsumschabêt, which is upstream of the air flow channel in the flow direction, a second Heilströmungsumschabrough downstream of the air flow channel in the flow direction.
  • the second air flow diverting portion directs the airflow out of a plane of the air flow channel by a deflection angle.
  • the partition wall or one of the plurality of partitions also extends at least partially into the second air flow deflection section.
  • those embodiments should also be included, in which a different partition wall protrudes into the second air flow deflection section than into the first air flow deflection section.
  • the flow-harmonizing properties of the partition wall can be utilized both on the side on which the flow is introduced into the air flow channel and on the side on which the air flows out of the flow channel. As a result, a particularly favorable flow and thus a particularly high noise reduction and flow resistance reduction can be achieved.
  • a preferred partition lies in a plane which runs parallel to the deflection of the air flow in the first and / or second Heilströmungsumschabites.
  • the partition wall is parallel to a plane in which the deflection angle of the Heilströmungsumschabitess lies. This makes it possible to achieve a particularly favorable flow profile in the air flow deflection section, which is particularly low-vortex.
  • the partition wall divides the air flow channel into sub-channels of the same cross-sectional area dimension.
  • the size of the cross sectional area of each subchannel is the same.
  • the air flow channel is divided with a partition in exactly two sub-channels of the same cross-sectional area dimension.
  • the partition is for this purpose in a center of the air flow channel.
  • the cross-sectional areas of the subchannels are symmetrical with respect to the partition wall.
  • the invention has a particularly advantageous effect, especially with comparatively large deflection angles.
  • the invention is suitable for both acute and obtuse deflection.
  • a particularly preferred deflection angle is about 90 °.
  • the air flow in the second Heilströmungsumschabêt is deflected by a deflection angle of at least 45 °, more preferably at least 60 °.
  • the invention is also suitable here for both acute and obtuse deflection.
  • a particularly preferred deflection angle of the second Lucasströmungsumschites is about 90 °.
  • the first and the second deflection angle lie in a common plane.
  • the deflection angles lie in different planes.
  • the air is diverted C-shaped through the air flow passage and the two air flow diverting sections, i. the ends of the deflection sections lie on the same side of the flow channel.
  • the air flow through the air flow passage and the turning sections is deflected in an S shape, i. E. the ends of the turn portions lie on opposite sides with respect to the air flow passage.
  • the preferred partition passes through the air flow channel over its entire length. Preferably, it traverses the entire cross section of the channel over the entire length of the air flow channel.
  • the air flow channel is preferably substantially straight. By a straight air flow channel, the air flow can be advantageously conducted particularly low-vortex.
  • at least one of the partition walls, particularly preferably all partition walls in the air flow channel preferably extend substantially straight along the longitudinal extent of the air flow channel. This also makes it possible to avoid vortex formation in the channel particularly well, which can contribute to a particularly strong noise reduction and a particularly strong reduction of flow losses.
  • the partition wall extends or extends the partition walls extending from the air flow passage in the first Luftströmungsumschabêt / s straight in the Luftströmungsumschabêt. Furthermore, the or runs the partitions that extend from the air flow channel in the second Heilströmungsumschabêt / en also straight in the airflow section. As a result, a particularly favorable flow can also be achieved in the first and / or second air flow deflection section.
  • One or more of the partition walls extending into the first air flow diverting section are preferably attached to the wall of the air flow diverting section on at least one side.
  • One or more of the partition walls extending into the second air flow diverting section are preferably attached to the wall of the air flow diverting section on at least one side. This too can contribute to a particularly favorable flow course in the first and / or second Heilströmungsumschabêt.
  • the preferred air flow passage including the first air flow turning portion forms part of the suction air passage of the vacuum cleaner.
  • Fig. 1 is a vacuum cleaner 1 with a motor-blower unit (not shown) for generating a suction air flow to see.

As in Fig. 4 can be clearly seen, the partition wall 7 extends in the air flow channel 4 over the entire height of the channel 4, so that the two sub-channels 8, 9 are completely separated from each other.
  • the wall 7 extends like a web from the inner surface 12, 13 opposite the opening 10, 11 of the air flow deflecting section 5, 6 in the direction of this opening 10, 11.
