Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisch betreibbares Bodenpflegegerät mit einem Motor und einer manuellen Leistungssteuerung für den Motor, wobei das Bodenpflegegerät eine Handhabe zur manuellen Auswahl einer Wunschbetriebsleistung des Motors durch einen Benutzer aus zwei oder mehr möglichen Wunschbetriebsleistungen umfasst. Das Bodenpflegegerät umfasst eine automatische Leistungssteuerung für den Motor, die dafür eingerichtet ist, die mittels der Handhabe manuell ausgewählte Wunschbetriebsleistung beim Einschalten des Motors des Bodenpflegegerätes zu übergehen und den Motor automatisch mit einer festgelegten Automatikbetriebsleistung anstatt mit der über die Handhabe ausgewählten Wunschbetriebsleistung zu betreiben. Aus solch einer automatischen Leistungssteuerung, die unmittelbar beim Einschalten des Bodenpflegegeräts eine manuell gewählte Wunschbetriebsleistung übergeht, ergeben sich dann zwei erfindungsgemäße Energiesparverfahren für ein solches Bodenpflegegerät.The invention relates to an electrically operable floor care appliance having an engine and manual power control for the engine, the floor care appliance comprising a handle for manually selecting a desired engine operating power by a user from two or more possible desired operating performances. The ground care device includes an automatic power control for the engine configured to override the desired manual power manually selected by the handle when the engine of the ground care device is turned on and to automatically operate the motor at a predetermined automatic operating power rather than the desired operating power selected via the handle. From such an automatic power control, which passes a manually selected desired operating power immediately when switching on the floor care device, then there are two inventive energy saving method for such a floor care device.

Erreichbare Vorteile können beispielsweise eine verbesserte Benutzerfreundlichkeit und ein gesenkter Energiebedarf sein.
