Description

La présente invention concerne de manière générale les aspirateurs et plus particulièrement un suceur d'aspiration actif avec une brosse rotative recouverte par une trappe d'accès à la brosse.The present invention generally relates to vacuum cleaners and more particularly an active suction nozzle with a rotating brush covered by a brush access door.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif destiné à faciliter le nettoyage de la brosse rotative équipant un suceur de type actif.The present invention relates to a device for facilitating the cleaning of the rotary brush equipping a nozzle type active.

Il existe à ce jour des suceurs avec un marquage qui préconise d'utiliser un ciseau pour couper les cheveux emmêlés autour de la brosse. A cet effet, un rail est pratiqué dans la brosse pour guider idéalement le ciseau et éviter qu'il ne dérape.To date, there are nozzles with a marking that recommends using a chisel to cut the tangled hair around the brush. For this purpose, a rail is made in the brush to guide the chisel ideally and prevent it from slipping.

Il existe également des suceurs avec une trappe d'accès afin d'extraire la brosse pour faciliter l'enlèvement des cheveux sur la brosse.There are also nozzles with an access door to extract the brush to facilitate the removal of hair on the brush.

Ces différents dispositifs nécessitent l'utilisation de dispositifs extérieurs, comme par exemple une paire de ciseaux, pour extraire les cheveux pris dans la brosse. Dans ce cas de figure, l'opération de nettoyage nécessite un temps relativement long puisqu'il faut utiliser un dispositif extérieur et l'ergonomie n'est pas optimale puisqu'il existe des risques de blessures lorsque, par exemple, des ciseaux sont utilisés.These different devices require the use of external devices, such as a pair of scissors, to extract hair caught in the brush. In this case, the cleaning operation requires a relatively long time since it is necessary to use an external device and the ergonomics are not optimal since there are risks of injury when, for example, scissors are used. .

Un but de la présente invention est donc de répondre aux inconvénients de l'art antérieur mentionnés ci-dessus et de pouvoir nettoyer une brosse de suceur rapidement et cela de la manière la plus sécurisée possible.An object of the present invention is therefore to meet the disadvantages of the prior art mentioned above and to be able to clean a nozzle brush quickly and in the most secure manner possible.

Pour cela un premier aspect de l'invention concerne une trappe d'accès d'une brosse motorisée de suceur d'aspirateur, ladite trappe étant apte à recouvrir au moins en partie la brosse motorisée et la trappe d'accès comprend un dispositif coupant pour nettoyer ladite brosse motorisée.For this purpose, a first aspect of the invention relates to an access hatch of a vacuum cleaner motorized brush, said hatch being capable of covering at least partly the motorized brush and the access hatch comprises a cutting device for clean said motorized brush.

De cette manière, on peut s'affranchir de dispositifs annexes pour une plus grande rapidité de nettoyage en ayant à portée de main un dispositif de nettoyage de la brosse.In this way, we can dispense with additional devices for one more high speed of cleaning by having a brush cleaning device at hand.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la trappe comprend une excroissance dans laquelle est intégré le dispositif coupant.According to one embodiment of the invention, the hatch comprises an outgrowth in which the cutting device is integrated.

De cette manière, on peut protéger le dispositif coupant d'un contact direct avec le sol et également le sol comme par exemple des tapis ou des moquettes d'un contact direct avec le dispositif coupant, ce qui limite dans un cas comme dans l'autre les risques de dégradations.In this way, the cutting device can be protected from direct contact with the ground and also the floor such as carpets or carpets from a direct contact with the cutting device, which limits in a case as in the other risks of damage.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif coupant est composé d'une lame comprenant une extrémité coupante. L'utilité d'avoir une lame avec une extrémité coupante réside dans son efficacité à couper des éléments qui viennent encrasser la brosse, comme par exemple des poils et des cheveux.According to one embodiment of the invention, the cutting device is composed of a blade comprising a cutting end. The utility of having a blade with a cutting end resides in its effectiveness in cutting off elements that clog the brush, such as hair and hair.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif coupant est constitué d'une matière plastique ou d'une matière métallique. L'utilité de la matière plastique réside dans le fait que le dispositif coupant peut être moulé avec la trappe. La matière métallique confère une grande solidité et une grande efficacité au dispositif coupant.According to one embodiment of the invention, the cutting device is made of a plastic material or a metal material. The utility of the plastic material lies in the fact that the cutting device can be molded with the hatch. The metallic material imparts great strength and efficiency to the cutting device.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif coupant est positionné à une extrémité de la trappe d'accès et a une forme recourbée de manière à proposer une fonction d'arrachage. Le fait d'avoir le dispositif coupant à une extrémité de la trappe permet de se servir de la quasi-totalité de la trappe comme d'un manche. La forme de crochet du dispositif coupant permet d'avoir une fonction d'arrachage qui combiné à la fonction de coupe permet d'améliorer le nettoyage du suceur et plus particulièrement de la brosse.According to one embodiment of the invention, the cutting device is positioned at one end of the access door and has a curved shape so as to provide a tear-off function. Having the cutting device at one end of the hatch makes it possible to use almost the entire hatch as a handle. The hook shape of the cutting device makes it possible to have a pulling function which combined with the cutting function makes it possible to improve the cleaning of the nozzle and more particularly of the brush.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la trappe comprend un dispositif de verrouillage de la trappe au-dessus de la brosse motorisée et le dispositif de verrouillage comprend une languette mobile par rapport à la trappe et la languette est reliée à au moins deux ergots qui sont adaptés à verrouiller la trappe au-dessus de la brosse motorisée. De cette manière, la trappe est facilement dé-verrouillable du suceur et la présence des ergots permet un positionnement optimal de la trappe sur le suceur.According to one embodiment of the invention, the hatch comprises a locking device of the hatch above the motorized brush and the locking device comprises a tongue movable relative to the hatch and the tongue is connected to at least two pins that are adapted to lock the hatch above the motorized brush. In this way, the hatch is easily de-lockable from the nozzle and the presence of the pins allows a optimal positioning of the hatch on the nozzle.

Un deuxième aspect de l'invention concerne un suceur d'aspirateur qui comprend une trappe d'accès telle que définie ci-dessus et la trappe d'accès est amovible du suceur.A second aspect of the invention relates to a vacuum nozzle which comprises an access door as defined above and the access door is removable from the nozzle.

Un tel suceur permet d'avoir un outil de nettoyage toujours intégré à celui-ci.Such a nozzle allows to have a cleaning tool always integrated therewith.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le suceur comprend un corps sur lequel sont positionnées au moins deux ouvertures et les ouvertures sont adaptées à maintenir ladite trappe d'accès en position verrouillée sur le suceur. De cette manière, un tel suceur est adapté à intégrer une trappe qui comprend un dispositif de verrouillage tel que décrit ci-dessus.According to one embodiment of the invention, the nozzle comprises a body on which are positioned at least two openings and the openings are adapted to maintain said access door in locked position on the nozzle. In this way, such a nozzle is adapted to integrate a hatch which comprises a locking device as described above.

Un troisième aspect de l'invention concerne un aspirateur qui comprend un suceur tel que décrit précédemment.A third aspect of the invention relates to an aspirator which comprises a nozzle as previously described.

On comprendra mieux les buts, aspects et avantages de la présente invention, d'après la description donnée ci-après d'un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention présenté à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en se référant aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue d'une trappe conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 est une vue d'une trappe selon une variante de réalisation ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue d'une trappe selon une autre variante de réalisation ;
  • la figure 4 est une vue de dessus d'une trappe.
The aims, aspects and advantages of the present invention will be better understood from the description given below of a particular embodiment of the invention presented by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which :
  • the figure 1 is a view of a hatch according to the invention;
  • the figure 2 is a view of a hatch according to an alternative embodiment;
  • the figure 3 is a view of a hatch according to another embodiment;
  • the figure 4 is a top view of a hatch.

Comme visible aux figures 1 ou 3, l'invention concerne une trappe 1 d'accès d'un suceur 3 d'aspirateur. Cette trappe 1 d'accès permet l'accès à une brosse 2 motorisée du suceur 3 d'aspirateur comme représenté à la figure 3. Cette brosse 2 motorisée est amovible du suceur 3. Toujours en référence à la figure 3, ladite trappe 1 d'accès vient se positionner sur le suceur 3. Plus précisément, la trappe 1 d'accès vient se positionner au-dessus de la brosse 2 motorisée de manière à recouvrir au moins en partie la brosse 2 motorisée. La trappe 1 d'accès comprend une position de verrouillage quand elle est positionnée sur le suceur 3. Selon l'invention, la trappe 1 d'accès comprend un dispositif 4 coupant. Ce dispositif 4 coupant a pour but de nettoyer la brosse 2 motorisée lorsque celle-ci est encrassée par exemple par des poils ou des cheveux. Ce dispositif 4 coupant peut revêtir plusieurs formes. Une trappe 1 d'accès conforme à l'invention, et visible à la figure 1, comprend une lame 6 qui forme une aspérité sur le côté de la trappe 1 d'accès et la lame 6 comprend une extrémité 7 coupante. La lame 6 peut également comprendre deux extrémités coupantes (non représentées). En général, la trappe 1 d'accès définit un plan et cette lame 6 se trouve sensiblement dans le plan de la trappe 1 d'accès. La lame 6 peut être de forme quelconque, notamment pyramidale, comme cela est représenté sur la figure 1.As visible to figures 1 or 3 the invention relates to an access hatch 1 of a suction nozzle 3. This access hatch 1 allows access to a motorized brush 2 vacuum cleaner 3 as shown in FIG. figure 3 . This motorized brush 2 is removable from the nozzle 3. Still referring to the figure 3 , said access hatch 1 is positioned on the nozzle 3. More specifically, the access hatch 1 is positioned above the motorized brush 2 so as to cover at least part of the motor brush 2. The 1 access hatch comprises a locking position when it is positioned on the nozzle 3. According to the invention, the access hatch 1 comprises a device 4 cutting. This device 4 cutting aims to clean the brush 2 motorized when it is fouled for example by hair or hair. This cutting device 4 can take many forms. An access hatch 1 according to the invention, and visible to the figure 1 , comprises a blade 6 which forms an asperity on the side of the access hatch 1 and the blade 6 comprises a cutting end 7. The blade 6 may also comprise two cutting ends (not shown). In general, the access hatch 1 defines a plane and this blade 6 is substantially in the plane of the hatch 1 access. The blade 6 may be of any shape, in particular pyramidal, as shown in FIG. figure 1 .

Une variante de réalisation de la trappe 1 d'accès est représentée à la figure 2. La trappe 1 d'accès comprend une excroissance 5 qui s'étend à partir d'un côté de la trappe 1 d'accès. Le dispositif 4 coupant est intégré dans une cavité 102 pratiquée dans cette excroissance 5 de manière à protéger ledit dispositif 4 coupant d'un contact direct avec le sol ou l'utilisateur d'un contact avec le dispositif 4 coupant.An alternative embodiment of the access hatch 1 is shown in FIG. figure 2 . The access hatch 1 comprises an outgrowth 5 which extends from one side of the access hatch 1. The cutting device 4 is integrated in a cavity 102 formed in this protrusion 5 so as to protect said cutting device 4 from direct contact with the ground or the user from contact with the cutting device 4.

Dans une autre variante de réalisation de la trappe 1 d'accès, visible aux figures 3 et 4, le dispositif 4 coupant est positionné à une extrémité de la trappe 1 d'accès et a une forme recourbée, par exemple en forme de crochet, de manière à proposer une fonction d'arrachage. On peut également avoir une lame 6 coupante qui est recourbée à son extrémité afin d'avoir cette fonction d'arrachage (non représentée).In another embodiment of the access hatch 1, visible to Figures 3 and 4 , the cutting device 4 is positioned at one end of the access hatch 1 and has a curved shape, for example in the form of a hook, so as to provide a pulling function. It is also possible to have a cutting blade 6 which is bent at its end in order to have this pulling function (not shown).

Dans toutes les variantes énoncées ci dessus, la trappe 1 d'accès comporte une ouverture d'accès 200 qui se trouve au-dessus de la brosse 2 motorisée de manière à ce que la brosse 2 motorisée soit en contact avec le sol lorsque le suceur 3 est en fonctionnement.In all the variants mentioned above, the access hatch 1 comprises an access opening 200 which is above the motorized brush 2 so that the motorized brush 2 is in contact with the ground when the nozzle 3 is in operation.

Comme visible à la figure 4, la trappe 1 d'accès comprend un dispositif 8 de verrouillage (respectivement de déverrouillage). Ce dispositif 8 de verrouillage permet de verrouiller (respectivement déverrouiller) la trappe 1 d'accès au-dessus de la brosse 2 motorisée comme visible à la figure 3. A cet effet, le dispositif 8 de verrouillage comprend une languette 9 mobile par rapport à la trappe 1 d'accès et la languette 9 est reliée à au moins deux ergots 10 qui sont adaptés à verrouiller la trappe 1 d'accès au-dessus de la brosse 2 motorisée. Un élément élastique peut également être intégré à la languette 9 afin de ramener celle-ci à sa position d'origine (non représenté).As visible at figure 4 , the access hatch 1 comprises a device 8 for locking (respectively unlocking). This locking device 8 makes it possible to lock (respectively unlock) the access hatch 1 above of the motorized brush 2 as visible at figure 3 . For this purpose, the locking device 8 comprises a tongue 9 movable relative to the hatch 1 access and the tongue 9 is connected to at least two lugs 10 which are adapted to lock the access hatch 1 above the motorized brush 2. An elastic member may also be integrated with the tongue 9 to bring it back to its original position (not shown).

Plus précisément la languette 9, visible aux figures 3 et 4, comprend trois ergots 10 qui assurent le positionnement et le verrouillage de la trappe 1 d'accès. Dans le cas de cette réalisation, la trappe 1 d'accès comprend également trois autres ergots fixes 100 en vis-à-vis sur la trappe 1 d'accès et de l'autre côté par rapport aux trois ergots 10 de la languette 9. L'utilité de ces ergots fixes 100 est de travailler de pair pour garantir une distance et un parallélisme précis de la trappe 1 d'accès par rapport au sol, ce qui influe sur l'efficacité de dépoussiérage. Afin de rattraper les jeux entre la trappe 1 d'accès, la languette et le suceur, lorsque la trappe 1 d'accès est verrouillée sur le suceur, une lèvre en terpolymères amorphes comme l'éthylène-propylène-diène monomère (EPDM) est surmoulée sur la trappe 1 d'accès. En outre cette lèvre permet d'optimiser l'étanchéité de la trappe 1 d'accès et de pallier aux nuisances sonores conséquentes des vibrations.More precisely, the tongue 9, visible to Figures 3 and 4 comprises three pins 10 which ensure the positioning and locking of the access hatch 1. In the case of this embodiment, the hatch 1 access also comprises three other fixed lugs 100 vis-à-vis the access hatch 1 and the other side relative to the three lugs 10 of the tongue 9. The utility of these fixed lugs 100 is to work together to ensure a precise distance and parallelism of the hatch 1 access from the ground, which affects the efficiency of dedusting. In order to make up the clearance between the access hatch 1, the tongue and the nozzle, when the hatch 1 access is locked on the nozzle, a lip of amorphous terpolymers such as ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) is overmolded on the hatch 1 access. In addition, this lip makes it possible to optimize the watertightness of the access hatch 1 and to compensate for the consequent noise nuisance of the vibrations.

A cet effet et comme visible à la figure 3, le suceur 3 comprend une semelle ou un corps 11 sur lequel sont positionnées au moins deux ouvertures 12 et ces ouvertures 12 sont prévues pour accueillir les ergots 10 de la languette 9 permettant ainsi de déverrouiller ou verrouiller la trappe 1 d'accès au-dessus de la brosse 2 motorisée. Ces ouvertures 12 sont dimensionnées de manière à laisser passer les ergots 10 et elles comprennent une partie latérale 101 dans laquelle les ergots 10 viennent prendre appui lorsque la trappe 1 d'accès est verrouillée sur le suceur 3.For this purpose and as visible to the figure 3 , the nozzle 3 comprises a sole or a body 11 on which are positioned at least two openings 12 and these openings 12 are provided to accommodate the lugs 10 of the tongue 9 thus allowing to unlock or lock the access hatch 1 above of the motorized brush 2. These openings 12 are dimensioned so as to let the pins 10 and they comprise a lateral portion 101 in which the lugs 10 come to bear when the access hatch 1 is locked on the nozzle 3.

L'invention concerne également un aspirateur (non représenté) qui comprend un suceur 3 tel que visible à la figure 3.The invention also relates to a vacuum cleaner (not shown) which comprises a nozzle 3 as visible in FIG. figure 3 .

L'invention fonctionne de la manière énoncée ci-après.The invention operates in the manner set forth below.

Afin de déverrouiller la trappe du suceur, l'utilisateur doit actionner le dispositif 8 de verrouillage de manière à translater la languette 9 le long de la trappe 1. Les ergots 10 qui sont positionnés sur la languette 9 vont donc se déplacer en vis-à-vis des ouvertures 12 disposées sur le suceur 3. De cette manière la trappe 1, qui était retenue au moins par les ergots 10 en appui contre la partie latérale 101 des ouvertures 12, est libérée du suceur 3.To unlock the squeegee door, the user must actuate the locking device 8 so as to translate the tongue 9 along the hatch 1. The lugs 10 which are positioned on the tongue 9 will therefore move vis-à-vis -vis openings 12 arranged on the nozzle 3. In this way the hatch 1, which was retained at least by the lugs 10 bearing against the lateral portion 101 of the openings 12, is released from the nozzle 3.

Une fois la trappe 1 libérée, l'utilisateur peut alors tenir la majorité du corps de la trappe 1 dans la main de manière à s'en servir de moyen de préhension. Lorsque la brosse 2 motorisée est encrassée, l'utilisateur se sert alors de la trappe 1 munie du dispositif 4 coupant pour nettoyer la brosse 2 motorisée des éléments qui pourraient la bloquer dans sa rotation. Le nettoyage s'effectue alors soit en utilisant la fonction de coupe combinée à la fonction d'arrachage, soit en utilisant simplement la fonction de coupe. Dans un cas comme dans l'autre, l'utilisateur passe le dispositif 4 coupant le long de la brosse 2 motorisée.Once the hatch 1 released, the user can then hold the majority of the body of the hatch 1 in the hand so as to use a gripping means. When the motorized brush 2 is fouled, the user then uses the hatch 1 provided with the cutting device 4 to clean the motor brush 2 elements that could block it in its rotation. The cleaning is then performed either by using the cutting function combined with the tearing function, or by simply using the cutting function. In one case as in the other, the user passes the device 4 cutting along the motorized brush 2.

On comprendra que diverses modifications et/ou améliorations évidentes pour l'homme du métier peuvent être apportées au mode de réalisation de l'invention décrit dans la présente description sans sortir du cadre de l'invention défini par les revendications annexées.It will be understood that various modifications and / or improvements obvious to those skilled in the art can be made to the embodiment of the invention described in the present description without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the appended claims.
