Definitions
- the present invention relates to a suction nozzle to be fitted to an electric household appliance for performing cleaning by means of suction, such as a vacuum cleaner, an electric broom or a multi-purpose drum vacuum cleaner or a robot vacuum cleaner, for sucking up dust and/or fluids and/or dirt from a surface.
- suction such as a vacuum cleaner, an electric broom or a multi-purpose drum vacuum cleaner or a robot vacuum cleaner, for sucking up dust and/or fluids and/or dirt from a surface.
- the present invention relates to a suction nozzle with a dust-raising device.
- a vacuum cleaner, an electric broom or a similar electric household appliance for performing cleaning by means of suction comprises a suction nozzle for sucking up dust, dirt or fluids from a surface.
- a suction nozzle is generally referred to by the term "brush”.
- suction nozzle and “brush” are considered to be equivalent.
- vacuum cleaner will be used with a broad meaning so as to include all those apparatus, for professional or domestic use, which perform cleaning by means of suction.
- vacuum cleaner will comprise a vacuum cleaner, an electric broom, a so-called multi-purpose drum vacuum cleaner or a robot vacuum cleaner, a centralized suction system for domestic or industrial use and an apparatus for supplying and sucking in steam.
- a known suction nozzle comprises a base plate shaped so as to have at least one base plate channel open towards a surface to be vacuumed, a suction channel which, during use, is joined to the base plate and is in fluid communication with the base plate and optionally a covering body which can be connected to the base plate/suction channel assembly.
- the other end of the suction channel communicates with a suction tube usually via a rotatable joint.
- suction nozzles in which the suction channel, during use, is joined to the covering body.
- width of a suction nozzle will be understood as meaning the maximum dimension (or footprint) of a suction nozzle without the covering body and calculated substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the base plate channel.
- suction efficiency will be understood as meaning essentially the ratio, in percentage terms, of the vacuumed material to the material to be vacuumed.
- the vacuuming tests are carried out in accordance with the provisions of the standard EN 60312-1:2013-05.
- the Applicant has discovered that the suction efficiency on these surfaces is increased by suitably shaping the front and/or rear edge of the base plate channel so as to raise the material to be vacuumed when the suction nozzle is pushed forwards and/or pulled backwards.
- the invention relates to a suction nozzle for a vacuum cleaner or the like, comprising a base plate with a base plate channel open towards the surface to be vacuumed, wherein said base plate channel comprises a first edge, a second edge, a first channel wall, a second channel wall and a channel bottom substantially opposite an opening formed between said first edge and said second edge, wherein said first channel wall comprises a first main wall and said second channel wall comprises a second main wall; wherein said first and second main walls are inclined so as to converge towards the bottom and wherein said first channel wall also comprises a first edge wall inclined so as to diverge from the second main wall towards the bottom.

- the tip of the rear tooth 9 is substantially in the form of a sharp edge.
- Figures 3 and 5.3 show a third embodiment of the present invention.
- the third embodiment is substantially a combination of the first embodiment with front tooth 8 and the second embodiment with rear tooth 9. All the comments made for the first and second embodiments are applicable to the third embodiment and will not be repeated.
- the dimensions and the inclination of the front edge wall 312 may remain unchanged along the whole front edge 31 or may vary.

- the front edge wall 312 and/or the rear edge wall 322 rub against the surface to be cleaned, which may be a non-compact or fibrous surface, such as a carpet, rug, mat, stair or hallway carpet or the like.
- the friction favors raising of dust (or other trapped particles) which are therefore more effectively vacuumed.
- the teeth bend the fibers and open up interstices which, once again, facilitate suction of the particles.
- the (front and/or rear) edge wall reduces slightly the width of the opening of the base channel and thus improves the suction performance compared to a base plate channel without teeth.
