Definitions

  • Robot vacuums are used in private households and businesses to clean surfaces such as textile floor coverings and smooth floors.
  • a floor nozzle of the vacuum robot is moved independently on a floor surface to pick up dust.
  • the invention therefore faces the problem of specifying an improved vacuum robot.
  • a convenient way should be created to easily and safely carry the housing of the vacuum robot up or down the stairs when changing living levels.
  • FIG. 1 a robotic vacuum cleaner according to the invention is shown purely schematically.
  • the representation according to figure 1 shows two robotic vacuum cleaners 1 for cleaning and maintaining floor surfaces 2, each with a mobile housing 3.
  • a blower not shown, for generating a negative pressure for picking up dust by means of an air flow.
  • a separating system 4 ( 13 , 14 ) for cleaning the air taken in from dust and a dust collection container 5 ( 13 , 14 ) arranged to collect separated dust.
  • An extendable carrying handle 6 is advantageously arranged on the housing 3 .
  • the multi-part closure flap 11 has a horizontally pivotable upper flap part 12 on an upper edge 13 of the suction opening 10 and a horizontally pivotable lower flap part 14 on a lower edge 15 of the suction opening 10 .
  • Both flap parts 12, 14 of the closure flap 11 are shown swung open so that the suction opening 10 is exposed. Dust can thus be taken up in the collection container 5 via the suction opening 10 during suction operation.
  • the other half of the suction opening 10 is, as in figure 11 to see closed by the flap base 14 as soon as the vacuum robot 1 on the carrying handle 6, as on the right side of the figure 1 to see being raised.
  • the horizontally aligned lower flap part 14 falls onto the upper flap part 12 and the suction opening 10 is closed by both flap parts 12, 14 of the closure flap 11 together.
  • the two flap parts 12, 14 advantageously simply fall into the closed position shown by gravity.
  • the angled parting plane 16 means that the lower part 14 of the flap can be supported on the upper part 12 of the closed flap. In this way, a particularly tight closure of the intake opening 10 is achieved by the two-part closure flap 11 .
  • the angled parting plane 16 forms a chamfer open to the pivoting area of the lower flap part 14, so that the lower flap part 14 can rest against this chamfer when pivoting into the closed position after the upper flap part 12 has already pivoted in front of the intake opening 10 due to the deactivation of the fan was, as well as in figure 13 you can see.
  • Out of figure 13 shows a sectional view through the dust collection container 5 with the closure flap 11 .
  • the upper part 12 of the closure flap 11 automatically falls in front of the suction opening 10 of the dust collection container 5.
  • the two-part closure flap 11 enables smaller flap parts 12, 14 to be used, so that the pivoting range of the flap parts 12 , 14 can be smaller than with a continuous closure flap.
  • the separating system 4 is not covered by the closing flap 11, in particular not by the upper part 12 of the flap, during suction operation, so that the dust can be effectively separated.
  • the figure 15 shows the storage areas 24 of the flap parts 12, 14, which are already from the Figures 9 to 11 can be seen in a side view.
  • the flap parts 12, 14 are mounted in slots in the dust collection container 5, so that they remain easy to pivot even when heavily soiled.
