Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betrieb eines Saugreinigungsgerätes (1), insbesondere eines Saugroboters, wobei während eines Saugbetriebs Sauggut mittels eines Gebläses (2) des Saugreinigungsgerätes (1) von einer zu reinigenden Fläche entfernt wird und wobei das Gebläse (2) mittels eines Akkumulators (3) betrieben wird. Um die Lebensdauer des Akkumulators (3) zu verlängern und/oder die Ladezeit zu verkürzen, wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Akkumulator (3) während eines Ladevorgangs des Akkumulators (3) durch einen von dem Gebläse (2) erzeugten Luftstrom gekühlt wird. Darüber hinaus betrifft die Erfindung ein Saugreinigungsgerät (1), insbesondere einen Saugroboter.

The invention relates to a method for operating a Saugreinigungsgerätes (1), in particular a vacuum robot, wherein during a suction suction product by means of a blower (2) of the Saugreinigungsgerätes (1) is removed from a surface to be cleaned and wherein the blower (2) by means of an accumulator (3) is operated. In order to extend the life of the accumulator (3) and / or to shorten the charging time, it is proposed that the accumulator (3) be cooled during a charging process of the accumulator (3) by an air flow generated by the fan (2). Moreover, the invention relates to a Saugreinigungsgerät (1), in particular a vacuum robot.
