  • FIG. 3 schematically shows how the cam 38 engages the web 54, for two different working positions of the handle device 26, the spar 27 is also shown schematically. Of these, only those features of the grip device 26 are provided with reference numerals, which refer to that working position in which the grip device 26 occupies an angle of approximately 55 ° with respect to the base 12.
  • the user may, as mentioned, pull on the handle 42, so that the cam 38 is pulled in the direction of the handle 29.
  • the cam 38 comes into contact with the upper segment 48 in the region of its contour 53, so that the cam 38 and the lever 45 interact.
  • a pulling force acting on the handle 42 thus leads to tilting of the lever 45 about the tilting axis 44, in the illustration of FIG. 3 in the counterclockwise direction.
  • the second portion 47 approaches the bottom wall 30, so that the valve pin 34 is pressed into the interior of the tank 19.
  • processing liquid received in the tank 19 can emerge from the valve 31 for acting on the floor surface to be processed.
  • the lever 45 returns to its original position due to the prestressing of the restoring spring 33 and the gravitational force exerted on the valve pin 34.
  • valve 31 The actuation of the valve 31 is possible regardless of the specific working position of the gripping device 26, since its pivoting about the pivot axis 45 relative to the base 12 and thus to the tank 19, the cam 38 is moved in the web 54. Independently of the angle between the gripping device 26 and the base 12, the cam 38 and the lever 45 can therefore cooperate in a working position of the gripping device 26.
  • the cam 38 and the lever 45 can cooperate, the cam 38 and the lever 45 are mechanically decoupled from each other. They are not engaged with each other, do not engage behind each other or undercut. Furthermore, neither effective locking elements are provided between the tank 19 and the base 12 nor between the tank 19 and the motor housing 17. The tank 19 is rather placed directly on the base 12 and positioned in the reservoir receptacle 22. If the grip device 26 assumes a working position, this allows the tank 19 to be removed from the reservoir receptacle 22 in an approximately vertical direction, specifically manually and in particular without tools. A prior release of locking elements, which act between the tank 19 and the single-disc 10 otherwise, is not required for this purpose. This gives the user to be easy to handle Way the ability to transport the tank 19 to a remote from the single-disc machine 10 location, for example, for filling or emptying of the tank 19th
  • FIG. 4 The removal of the tank 19 from the reservoir receptacle 22 is in FIG. 4 shown schematically.
  • continuous contour lines as well as the cut walls of the tank 19 shown hatched represent the same when positioned in the reservoir receptacle 22.
  • Contour lines represented by dashed lines symbolize the tank 19 when it is removed from the reservoir receptacle 22 in a vertical direction symbolized by an arrow 55.
  • the right side wall 51 of the tank 19 is formed in stages. How best of the FIGS. 2 to 4 becomes clear, the side wall 51 forms a first upper wall portion 56, which extends from an upper side 57 of the tank 19 in the direction of the pivot axis 25.
  • the first wall section 56 merges into a second wall section 59 axially offset with respect to the pivot axis 25.
  • the second wall section 59 merges at a further step 60 into a third wall section 61 axially offset with respect to the pivot axis 25, which in turn is connected to the bottom wall 30.
  • the joint 23 engages in the lateral recess formed by the third wall section 61.
  • the first portion 46 of the lever 45 is arranged, and in it the cam 38 moves parallel to the wall portion 59, when the handle device 26 is pivoted about the pivot axis 25.
  • the step 58 between the wall sections 56 and 59 extends arcuately with respect to the pivot axis 25.
  • the length of the arc corresponds approximately to a quarter circle, in the representation of FIG. 3 approximately from the vertical to the horizontal in a clockwise direction.
  • the second wall portion 59 forms subsequent to the web 54, a guide track 62 for the cam 38.
  • the guide track 62 is limited by the step 58.
  • the step 58 at the lower end forms a relative to the pivot axis 25 radial projection 63 on which the guideway 62 ends.
  • the gripping device 26 can be transferred from the plurality of working positions into a parking position, for example for transport or when the single-disc machine 10 is not being used. This is done by being pivoted about the pivot axis 25 so that the handle bars 27 and 28 are pivoted laterally past the tank 19 until they are arranged in a horizontal and parallel to the plane defined by the base 12. In this parking position, the gripping device 26 can be locked to the base 12, and the single-disk machine 10 can be set up for space-saving storage, for example, such that the gripping device 26 is vertically aligned (FIG. Figures 5 and 6 ).
  • cam 38 When pivoting in the park position, the cam 38 is guided by the guide track 62 with some play and approximated to the projection 63.
  • the cam 38 and projection 63 In the parking position of the handle 26 contact cam 38 and projection 63 almost, and facing contact surfaces 64 on the cam 38 and 65 on the projection 23 have only a small distance of a few millimeters from each other.
  • the cam 38 and the projection 63 can cooperate to secure the tank 19 in the reservoir receptacle 22 when the grip device 26 assumes its parking position. Namely, if it is attempted to bring the tank 19 in the direction defined by the arrow 55 relative to the base 12 at a distance, the projection 63 is moved toward the cam 38 to. This leads to, the contact surfaces 64 and 65 can cooperate so that the cam 38 blocks the projection 63. As a result, it is not possible to remove the tank 19 from the reservoir receptacle 22 when the grip device 26 assumes its parking position.
  • the cam 38 is also referred to as the first securing member 66 and the projection 63 as the second securing member 67 of the single-disc machine 10.
  • the securing members 66 and 67 together form a securing device 68 for securing the tank 19 in the reservoir receptacle 22. They cooperate in a securing position when the grip device 26 assumes the parking position.
  • the gripping device 26 assumes a working position
  • the cam 38 and the projection 63 are arranged at a distance from one another and do not act together, so that they assume a release position. In this release position, the tank 19 can be removed without tools from the reservoir receptacle 22 and positioned in this position.
  • the securing of the tank 19 in the reservoir receptacle 22 is to a certain extent "automatically” by pivoting the grip device 26 in the parking position. Incidentally, it is also effective when the single-disc machine 10, as in the Figures 5 and 6 shown, is turned off with vertically oriented grip device 26. Although the tank 19 generates in this case a horizontally oriented tilting moment with respect to the base 12. However, aelleskippmoment can be applied by the securing position engaging securing members 66 and 67. Even with the in the Figures 5 and 6 shown position of the single-disk machine 10, therefore, the tank 19 does not fall out of the reservoir receptacle 22.
  • the single-disk machine 10 is particularly easy to handle for a user in the manner explained above, wherein the tank locking and tank unlocking takes place automatically by pivoting the gripping device 26. Since the cam 38 can be used both for locking the tank 19 and for actuating the valve 31, the single-disc machine 10 moreover has a particularly simple structural design.
  • the tank 19 can be closed via a filling opening 69 which can be closed by means of a cover 70 (FIG. Figures 3 and 6 ), are filled with the machining fluid.
  • the filling opening 69 is arranged at a distance from the upper side 57.
  • the maximum achievable liquid level 71 during operation of the single-disc machine 10 also at a distance from the top 57, and above the liquid level 71 is formed laterally next to the lid 70, an empty reservoir 72 for the processing liquid ( FIG. 3 ).
