Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner nozzle for cleaning surfaces such as floors, comprising a rotatable, elongated brush, which is provided with brush means, wherein the brush is rotatably driven and adapted to rotate during cleaning to brush off debris and dust from the surface or to accomplish agitation of the surface.
  • Document EP2659817A2 describes a nozzle having a nozzle casing provided with a floor cleaning roller movable inside and outside of nozzle casing and rotatable with respect to a nozzle casing during an operation of vacuum cleaner around a rotational axis.
  • a cylindrical portion is extended over 25% of width of nozzle casing, parallel to rotational axis, during operation of vacuum cleaner.
  • the floor cleaning roller and cylindrical portion are arranged such that the floor cleaning roller is contacted with the cylindrical portion when moving inside and outside of nozzle casing.
  • the cleaning roller is driven by a turbine which produces drive torque.
  • the drive torque from the turbine is transmitted via a first pulley rotatable and connected to the turbine and a first belt which is engaged with first and second pulley wherein the second pulley is engaged with third pulley by a shaft.
  • Second belt transmitting the drive torque from the third pulley to a transition means having from one side toothed structure which connects the cleaning roller, therefore the drive torque can be transmitted from the turbine to the cleaning roller.
  • this solution is unfavourable, namely when the turbine starts to rotate as a result of air flow produced by a suction unit, it has to drive all transition devices and the cleaning roller, therefore when the produced by the turbine the drive torque is smaller than resistance of rotation transition means and resistance produced by the cleaning roller especially when it is in contact with floor or carpet, the turbine is not able to turn the cleaning roller.
  • Document US8011063 B2 describes an overload clutch for a rotating agitation member for a surface cleaning machine including a clutch member connected to the agitation member to rotate therewith, a coupling member rotatable relative to the clutch member, and a torque lever having an end pivotally mounted to the coupling member.
  • the other end of the torque lever is biased to engage with the clutch member such that the agitation member is rotated together with the coupling member when a torque load from the agitation member is not greater than a preset level.
  • the torque lever pivots outward away from the clutch member and disengages from the clutch member to disconnect the torque lever from the clutch member when the torque load from the agitation member is greater than the preset level.
  • the rotating agitation member may get stuck, and the motor driving the rotating agitation member will be damaged due to frictional heat if power transmission from the motor to the rotating agitation member is not cut off. This is an object for said solution to disconnect the first torque lever from the clutch member when the torque load from the rotating agitation member is greater than the preset level.
  • nozzles provided with a clutch, namely a centrifugal clutch which prevents the nozzle from being damaged due to uncontrolled increase of a rotation speed e.g. when during a operation the nozzle is taken from the floor or carpet.
  • the drive torque is from the start constantly transmitted to the cleaning roller until means being controlled, exceeds preset level of the rotation speed then the transmission of the drive torque to the cleaning roller is stopped.
  • a nozzle for a vacuum cleaner according to the preamble of claim 1 is already known e.g. from DE-B-102015100317 .
  • the objective of the present invention is to provide a nozzle for a vacuum cleaner wherein the turbine or an electric motor which also can be used in the nozzle for producing drive torque is less loaded during the start working.
  • a nozzle for the vacuum cleaner having: a nozzle housing, a floor cleaning roller which can be removed from the nozzle housing and rotatable on an axle relative to the nozzle housing. The floor cleaning roller rotates about an axis of rotation during operation of the vacuum cleaner.
  • a driving means producing a drive torque "T" which is transferred to the floor cleaning roller by a transmission means, and a centrifugal clutch which is operatively connected between the floor cleaning roller and the transmission means wherein the centrifugal clutch comprises: a cup having at least one engaging element, wherein the cup is firmly connected with the floor cleaning roller, a driver spaced radially inwardly apart from the cup and rotatable about the axis of rotation, at least one slider which is movably retained by the driver, and a disconnecting means retained by the driver acting with force "F" on the slider towards the axis of rotation.
  • a nozzle has the centrifugal clutch which disengages the floor cleaning roller from the transmission means when the predetermined rotation speed of the driver is not exceeded, it also means that when it starting to operate, the floor cleaner roller is disengaged from the transmission means thereby easier starting to operate of a nozzle is achieved, namely the driving means starts easier to operate due to disengaged the floor cleaner roller.
  • centrifugal force "C” acting on the slider against the radial force "F” becomes lower than the radial force "F", what causes that the slider moves inward to the driver and disconnects with the engaging element, therefore the drive torque "T” transfer from the driving means to the floor cleaning roller is stopped. In that reason the drive torque "T” is only transferred from the transmission mean to the floor cleaner roller when the rotation speed of the driver exceeds the predetermined rotation speed.
  • the disconnecting mean comprises at least one slider made of material attractive to magnetism and movably retained by the driver and used to connect the driver with the cup by the engaging element, and a permanent magnet placed in the driver, in the axis of rotation or nearby
  • the disconnecting means includes at least one slider made of a magnetic material and movably retained by the driver and used to connect the driver with the cup by the engaging element, and an element made of material attractive to magnetism placed in the driver, in the axis of rotation or nearby.
  • the magnetic mean includes at a plurality of sliders made of magnetic material and movably retained by the driver and used to connect the driver with the cup by the engaging element, wherein sliders are magnetically urged toward each other in a direction towards the axis of rotation. Usage of a magnetic force i.e. at least one of the cooperating elements is made of magnetic material causes that the disconnecting means is compact, durable and doesn't require a lot of space.
  • the disconnecting means comprises a coil spring which produces the radial force "F" acting on the slider in the direction towards the axis of rotation.
  • the disconnecting means can comprise a pulling coil spring, which first end is attached to the closer end of the slider with respect to the axis of rotation and the second end of the pulling coil spring is attached to the driver close to the axis of rotation.
  • the driving means comprises: a turbine, an axle which is mechanically engaged with the turbine and connected with the transferring means for forwarding the drive torque "T" produced on the turbine by airflow which is created by the vacuum cleaner.
  • a nozzle doesn't require any additional power supply.
  • the driving means comprises: an electric motor with an axle which is mechanically connected with the transmission means for forwarding the drive torque "T" produced by the electric motor.
  • a nozzle can be used regardless of the value of the air stream produced by the vacuum cleaner.
  • an electric motor having smaller starting torque with a smaller electric power consumption.
  • the transmission means comprises: a first gearwheel connected with the driving means, a toothed belt, and a second gearwheel which is connected to the driver.
  • the transmission means are easy to produce and cost effective.
  • the engaging element is created by one through opening disposed in a cylindrical portion of the cup in order to receive a portion of the slider projecting from the driver for temporally engaging the cup with the driver after exceeding a predetermined rotation speed of the driver. This solution is cost effective and durable. Also it is not complicated in production and provides firmly connection between the cup and driver.
