Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a steam cleaner, and in particular a steam cleaning brush.
  • An object of the present invention is to meet the disadvantages of the prior art documents mentioned above and in particular, first of all, to propose an effective steam cleaner (that is to say, which cleans the floors properly). ), while being simple to design and manufacture.
  • the steam cleaner according to the present invention comprises a front suction slot which sucks more than the rear suction slot, since the first branch brakes less the suction flow than the second branch (because the passage sections of the first branch are larger than those in the second branch).
  • This implementation makes it possible to promote the suction of impurities from the front (dust and large particles such as rice grains, coffee beans, noodles, kibble cat ...) because the Applicant has found that statistically these impurities were most often picked up during a forward movement (when the nozzle of the cleaner or broom was pushed).
  • the suction power of the front suction slot is greater than that of the rear suction slot, which is well suited to the actual cleaning conditions.
  • the construction is simple because there is no mechanism for directing the flow forward or backward, it is by simple fixed geometry of the parts of the nozzle / cleaner that the invention makes it possible to propose a suction more important on the suction slot before the rear suction slot: the conduit of the second branch has a passage section much smaller than the conduit of the first branch.
  • the suction of the impurities being effective, the steam cleaning is also effective because the soil facing the steam diffuser no longer present impurities (dust ...) that would be "stuck" to the ground by the steam flow .
  • the nozzle has a width (that is to say a dimension in a direction transverse or perpendicular to a direction of the movements of and fro cleaning), and the front suction slot and / or the rear suction slot are arranged in the direction of width, over at least 70% of that width.
  • the second branch comprises at least one passage section whose surface is less than or equal to one-third of the area of the smallest of the passage sections of the first branch.
  • the smallest of the passage sections of the first branch may have an area of 725mm 2 ⁇ 25mm 2
  • the second branch may comprise at least one passage section whose surface is 240mm 2 ⁇ 15mm 2 , for a 1500W power steam cleaner approx.
  • the steam cleaner comprises a Y-junction at which the first branch and the second branch join the main suction duct, and a flow of air from the second branch undergoes a change of direction of flow greater than 90 ° to the passage of the Y junction, and a flow of air from the first branch undergoes a flow direction change of less than 60 ° to the passage of the Y junction.
  • the upstream velocity vector is almost collinear with the downstream velocity vector, within ⁇ 60 °.
  • the upstream velocity vector has direction and direction opposite to the direction and direction of the downstream velocity vector.
  • the airflow of the second branch makes a "hairpin turn,” or “hairpin turn” at the passage of the Y-junction, while the air flow of the first branch does not undergo a significant change of direction.
  • the air flow of the second leg is braked, which further benefits the suction through the front suction slot.
  • a scalar product between a velocity vector of the airflow for the first branch upstream and a velocity vector of the airflow for the first branch downstream of the Y-junction is positive, whereas a scalar product between a velocity vector of the air flow for the second branch in upstream and a velocity vector of the air flow for the second branch downstream of the Y junction is negative.
  • upstream means a velocity vector taken less than 3 cm upstream of the Y junction
  • downstream means a velocity vector taken less than 5 cm downstream of the Y junction.
  • the front face comprises at least four notches.
  • the steam cleaner comprises at least one hanging brush arranged between the front suction slot and the steam diffuser and / or between the rear suction slot and the steam diffuser.
