Definitions
- the invention relates to a high-pressure cleaning device with the features of the preamble of patent claim 1.
- a cleaning liquid preferably water
- cleaning liquid can be supplied to the pump via a liquid supply line, for example a suction hose.
- the cleaning liquid can be pressurized by the pump and then delivered via a liquid delivery line, for example a pressure hose.
- the high-pressure cleaning device can have a first connection element, and for connecting the liquid delivery line, the high-pressure cleaning device can have a second connection element.
- the pressurized cleaning liquid can be fed to a dispensing element, for example a spray lance or a spray gun, via the liquid delivery line. By means of the dispensing element, the pressurized cleaning liquid can be directed onto the surface to be cleaned.
- the electric motor is supplied with energy using an external voltage source, for example a public power supply network.
- the high-pressure cleaning device can have a power cable that is connected to the external power source.
- an external voltage source is not always available.
- handling the high-pressure cleaning device is often made more difficult by connecting it to the external power source. It is therefore, for example, from the DE 10 2008 019 524 A1 a high-pressure cleaning device is known which has at least one rechargeable battery to supply energy to the electric motor and therefore does not necessarily have to be connected to an external voltage source.
- the provision of at least A rechargeable battery makes handling the high-pressure cleaning device easier, but battery-operated high-pressure cleaning devices often only have a low electrical output and the cleaning liquid cannot be put under too much pressure. This affects the cleaning results that can be achieved using battery-operated high-pressure cleaning devices.
- the WO 2013/121779 A2 discloses a high-pressure cleaning device that uses two rechargeable batteries.
- the batteries each have several battery cells that are connected in series with one another.
- a lower housing part of the device housing of the high-pressure cleaning device is divided by partitions into a battery chamber, a motor chamber and a pump chamber.
- An electric motor and control electronics are arranged in the motor chamber.
- a battery connection is electrically connected to the control electronics, which in turn is electrically connected to the electric motor.
- From the US 5,100,058 A is a high-pressure cleaning device known with a device housing in which an electric motor and a pump driven by the electric motor are arranged. To supply energy to the electric motor, several batteries are arranged in a battery compartment of the device housing.
- the US 2009/0120460 A1 discloses a pre-spray unit for carpets.
- the pre-spray unit has a device housing in which a pump driven by an electric motor and an electrical control device are arranged.
- the device housing accommodates two batteries connected in series to supply energy to the electric motor.
- the object of the present invention is to develop a battery-operated high-pressure cleaning device of the type mentioned in such a way that the batteries can be replaced in a simple manner and the battery receiving device and the electric motor can be cooled in a simple manner.
- the electric motor By connecting at least two rechargeable batteries in series, the electric motor can be provided with an electrical supply voltage, which results from the sum of the output voltage of the individual batteries.
- This allows the use of an electric motor with a nominal voltage greater than 36 V, and this in turn allows the cleaning fluid to be placed under high pressure so that a better cleaning result can be achieved.
- the pressure of the cleaning liquid can be, for example, at least 70 bar, preferably at least 100 bar.
- the output voltage of the batteries is doubled by the series connection while the current remains the same, so that the series connection also doubles the electrical power.
- the maximum electrical power of the high-pressure cleaning device is at least 1 kW.
- the high-pressure cleaning device has a battery receiving device with a battery receiving compartment into which the batteries can be inserted and from which the batteries can be removed. This makes replacing the batteries easier.
- the battery receiving device is arranged outside the device housing. This makes assembly of the high-pressure cleaning device easier and also has the advantage that the battery receiving device is easily accessible to the user in order to replace the batteries.
- the battery receiving device is arranged above the device housing when the high-pressure cleaning device is in the upright position of use.
- the battery receiving device is therefore easily accessible to the user when the high-pressure cleaning device is in the upright position of use. This makes it easier for the user to replace the batteries.
- the device housing has air inlet openings and an air inlet channel is arranged between the air inlet openings and the battery receiving device. Cooling air can flow into the device housing via the air inlet duct and the air inlet openings arranged on the device housing, with the cooling air also cooling the battery receiving device as it flows through the air inlet duct. Since the air inlet channel runs between the device housing and the battery receiving device, the battery receiving device reduces the risk of splash water entering the device housing via the air inlet openings.
- the air inlet openings are arranged on a ceiling wall of the device housing.
- a suction unit is arranged in the device housing for sucking in cooling air via the air inlet duct and the air inlet openings.
- the suction unit is arranged in a motor housing that surrounds the electric motor, the motor housing having at least one air inlet.
- the cooling air sucked in via the air inlet duct, the air inlet openings of the device housing and the at least one air inlet of the motor housing can flow along the electric motor in order to cool it. It is particularly advantageous if the sucked-in cooling air then reaches the control housing via an air duct, so that the control electronics positioned in the control housing can also be cooled with the help of the cooling air.
- an electrical control device is arranged in the device housing of the high-pressure cleaning device with a splash-proof control housing and control electronics positioned in the control housing, the control electronics having a voltage supply circuit, and the batteries each being connected to the voltage supply circuit via separate electrical connecting lines and by means of the Power supply circuit are connected in series with one another.
- a splash-proof control housing is arranged within the device housing.
- the control housing is preferred as from Device housing is designed as a separate component.
- the control housing accommodates control electronics that include a power supply circuit.
- the batteries arranged outside the control housing are each connected to the power supply circuit positioned inside the control housing via separate electrical connecting lines.
- the batteries connected in series with each other With the help of the voltage supply circuit, the batteries connected in series with each other, with the output voltages of the batteries being added to a supply voltage for the electric motor.
- the summation of the output voltages takes place within the splash-proof control housing surrounded by the device housing.
- the risk that the user comes into contact with the relatively high supply voltage of the electric motor if the device housing is damaged and in particular if the battery receiving device is damaged can be reduced.
- the requirements for the battery receiving device with regard to splash protection can be kept rather low, since no sum is formed from the output voltages of the batteries within the battery receiving device.
- the output voltages of the batteries are transmitted via the individual connecting lines to the voltage supply circuit arranged in the splash-proof control housing, and the sum of the output voltages is only formed in the control housing using the voltage supply circuit.
- the batteries can be inserted into the battery compartment without tools and can also be removed from the battery compartment without tools.
- the batteries discharge as the high-pressure cleaning device operates.
- an internal or external charging device can be used.
- the batteries are to be connected to an external charging device, they can be removed from the battery compartment and then reinserted into the battery compartment after charging.
- the high-pressure cleaning device is conveniently operated in a standing position of use in which a longitudinal axis of the device housing is aligned essentially vertically. In such a position of use, the high-pressure cleaning device only requires a relatively small footprint to set up.
- the pump is arranged below the electric motor in the upright position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device and the control device is positioned laterally next to the pump.
- the control device in such an embodiment of the invention, in the standing position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device, it is at a relatively small distance from the base of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the risk of damage to the control device in particular the risk of damage to the splash-proof control housing, can be kept low. Even if the high-pressure cleaning device tips over from its standing position of use into a lying position in which the longitudinal axis of the device housing is aligned essentially horizontally, there is practically no risk that the splash-proof control housing will be damaged.
- the high-pressure cleaning device has two impellers that can be rotated about a common axis of rotation. This makes it possible to easily move the high-pressure cleaning device along a floor surface. For this purpose, it can be tilted from its standing position of use around the common axis of rotation of the wheels like a sack truck, so that it can then be moved along the floor surface using the wheels.
- control device is arranged adjacent to the common axis of rotation of the wheels.
- control device is at least partially positioned between the two wheels. In such a configuration, the control device only occupies a relatively small distance from the floor surface even when the high-pressure cleaning device is moved, so that there is little risk that the control device and in particular the splash-proof control housing will be damaged if the high-pressure cleaning device accidentally tips over.
- a positively guided cooling air flow can flow through the control housing. This allows the control electronics arranged in the control housing to be effectively cooled.
- control housing is in flow connection with the motor housing of the electric motor via at least one air duct, with cooling air sucked into the motor housing being able to be fed to the control housing via the at least one air duct.
- a suction unit is arranged within the motor housing for sucking in cooling air from the environment of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the sucked-in cooling air can flow along the electric motor for cooling and can reach the control housing via the at least one air duct, so that the control electronics positioned in the control housing can also be cooled by the cooling air.
- the cooling air can escape from the control housing via at least one air outlet opening.
- the at least one air outlet opening is preferably arranged on a bottom wall of the control housing, which is arranged below the control electronics positioned in the control housing in the vertical position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the batteries of the high-pressure cleaning device are held in a releasably lockable manner in the battery receiving compartment. This can prevent an unintentional change in position of the batteries in the battery compartment.
- the battery receiving device has a plurality of locking elements, each of which can be moved back and forth between a locking position and a release position, with the locking elements each being assigned a battery and an actuating element and the locking elements being moved out of the locking position by actuating the respectively assigned actuating element the release position can be moved.
- the batteries can each be locked individually in the battery compartment.
- a locking element is used for this purpose.
- Each locking element is assigned a separate actuating element, by actuating which the Locking element can be moved from the locking position into a release position, so that the battery can then be easily removed from the battery compartment.
- the batteries can thus be removed one after the other from the receiving compartment, with one actuating element having to be actuated for removal.
- the movable locking elements By providing the movable locking elements, it is not necessary for the batteries to have movable parts in order to secure the batteries in the battery receiving compartment. The manufacturing costs of the batteries can thereby be reduced and the susceptibility of the batteries to faults can also be kept low.
- the locking elements protrude from a wall of the battery compartment in their locking position.
- the locking elements In their locking position, the locking elements can dip into a receptacle of the respective assigned battery and fix the battery.
- the locking elements In their release position, the locking elements can release the holder of the respective battery, so that the battery can be removed from the battery compartment without being hindered by the associated locking element.
- the locking elements are spring-elastically preloaded into their locking position. Under the effect of the preload acting on them, the locking elements automatically assume their locking position, and by actuating the respective associated actuating element, the locking elements can be moved into the release position against the preload acting on them.
- the locking elements can be moved from the locking position into the release position against a resilient restoring force by inserting the batteries into the battery receiving compartment. This makes it easier to insert and secure the batteries into the battery compartment.
- the locking elements that initially assume their locking position become from the respectively assigned battery, when it is inserted into the battery compartment, moves into its release position against a resilient restoring force. When the batteries have reached their end position in the battery compartment, the locking elements are moved back into their locking position under the action of the resilient restoring force, each locking a battery in the battery compartment.
- the locking elements each have a locking hook.
- the locking hook can dip into an associated receptacle of the battery to secure the battery in the battery compartment.
- the locking hook can engage behind a locking projection on the battery.
- the actuating elements preferably have a push button. This makes it easier to operate the actuating element.
- the push button can be pressed downwards essentially vertically in the vertical position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device in the direction of its base. This has the advantage that the stability of the high-pressure cleaning device is not affected by the actuation of the actuating element.
- the actuating elements each interact with a locking element via a driver, for example an inclined surface.
- the actuating elements can, for example, be displaceable in a straight line in a sliding direction, preferably essentially vertically downwards in the standing position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device, whereby they each contact a driver which transmits the movement of the actuating element to a locking element, so that the locking element is removed from the Locking position moved into the release position.
- each driver is rigidly connected to a locking element.
- each driver forms a one-piece plastic molding together with a locking element.
- the locking elements each have a locking hook.
- the locking hook can be connected in one piece to a driver.
- the battery receiving device has a plurality of output elements, each of which is assigned to a battery, the batteries inserted into the battery receiving compartment being movable by the respective associated output element in the direction opposite to the direction of insertion, when the locking element assigned to the batteries assumes its release position.
- the user In order to remove a battery from the battery compartment, the user must operate the actuating element assigned to the battery in such an embodiment of the invention. This results in the locking element associated with the battery being moved from its locking position into its release position, and this in turn results in the battery being moved by the associated output element in the direction opposite to the insertion direction.
- the user can easily grasp the battery moved by the output element by hand and completely remove it from the battery compartment.
- the provision of the output elements in combination with the provision of the actuation and locking elements, enables one-handed operation such that the user can grasp a battery with one hand and insert it into the battery receiving compartment, with the battery being fixed in its end position in the battery receiving compartment, and the user can the inserted battery with one hand in the battery compartment removed by first activating the actuating element assigned to the battery and then grabbing the battery and removing it from the battery compartment.
- the respective associated output element can preferably be acted upon by a spring force that is directed opposite to the direction of insertion.
- the batteries are secured by the associated locking element. If the locking element is moved from its locking position into its release position by actuating the associated actuating element, the battery is moved in the direction opposite to the insertion direction under the effect of the spring force exerted by the output element.
- the output elements can, for example, have an output spring which is tensioned when the battery is inserted and thus applies a spring force to the battery, under the action of which it is moved in the direction opposite to the direction of insertion after an actuation of an actuating element.
- the batteries can preferably be inserted into the battery receiving compartment in the upright position of use of the high-pressure cleaning device in the direction of the base of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the high-pressure cleaning device is only subjected to a force directed towards the standing surface, so that the stability of the high-pressure cleaning device is affected by the insertion the batteries are not affected.
- the batteries can be inserted into the battery compartment essentially in a vertical direction from top to bottom.
- the battery receiving device has a receiving trough which surrounds the battery receiving compartment and can be closed by means of a lid.
- the lid is conveniently pivotably mounted on the receiving tray.
- the pivot axis of the lid is conveniently aligned horizontally when the high-pressure cleaning device is in the upright position of use.
- the lid is biased towards a closed position of the lid. This makes it easier to handle the high-pressure cleaning device when replacing a battery, since the cover automatically assumes its closed position due to the preload acting on it, provided it is not being held by the user.
- the high-pressure cleaning device preferably has a first connection element for connecting a liquid supply line and a second connection element for connecting a liquid delivery line, the two connection elements being arranged on a front side of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the air inlet duct is preferably arranged on a rear side of the high-pressure cleaning device. This means that the risk of splash water penetrating the device housing via the air inlet duct and the air inlet openings can be kept particularly low.
- the high-pressure cleaning device has a U-shaped push bar with two push rods and a handle connecting the push rods to one another, the push bar being mounted on the device housing so that it can be moved back and forth between a parking position and an operating position.
- the handle In the parking position, the handle is at a smaller distance from the device housing than in the operating position. In the operating position, the handle can be easily grasped by the user to move the high-pressure cleaning device. Should If the high-pressure cleaning device is started in a standing position of use, the push bar can be moved into the parking position so that it does not hinder further handling of the high-pressure cleaning device.
- the handle and preferably also the end regions of the push rods facing the handle are arranged laterally next to the battery receiving device in the parking position of the push bar. This has the advantage that the handle and in particular the end sections of the push rods protect the battery device from damage if the high-pressure cleaning device tips over.

- a supply voltage of 72 V can be provided to the electric motor 64. This allows the cleaning liquid to be placed under a pressure of at least 70 bar, preferably under a pressure of at least 100 bar, by means of the pump 68 driven by the electric motor 64.
- control housing 72 The risk of damage to the control housing 72 is low since it is arranged adjacent to the common axis of rotation 24, occupying a position between the pump 68 and the rear side 32. Should the high-pressure cleaning device 10 tip over from its standing position of use, so there is practically no risk that the control housing 72 will be damaged.
- the high-pressure cleaning device 10 can be moved by means of the two impellers 20, 22.
- the high-pressure cleaning device 10 has a U-shaped push bar 160, which has a first push rod 162 and a second push rod 164, which are slidably mounted on the device housing 14 and which are rigidly connected to one another via a handle 166.
- the push bar 160 can be between one in Figure 1 operating position shown and one in Figure 2 shown parking position can be moved back and forth. In the operating position, the distance between the handle 166 and the device housing 14 is greater than in the parking position.
- the handle 166 and the end regions of the two push rods 162, 164 facing the handle 166 are arranged laterally next to the battery receiving device 48. Should the high-pressure cleaning device 10 tip over backwards from its standing position of use, the handle 166 and the end regions of the push rods 162, 164 facing the handle 166 protect the battery receiving device 48, in particular the receiving housing 50, from damage.
