Definitions
- the invention relates to a blower unit with the features of the first independent patent claim and a vacuum cleaner with the features of the further independent patent claim.
- blower units e.g. vacuum cleaners
- blower units sometimes cause considerable noise emissions. These can in turn have a negative effect in the area surrounding the blower unit or have a disruptive effect on a user of the blower unit.
- a major component of the noise emitted by a blower unit is the rotating sound.
- the cause of the rotating sound lies, among other things, in the interaction between static and rotating elements of the blower unit, which causes a periodically fluctuating flow and thus a periodically fluctuating force on various components of the blower unit. This ultimately leads to a vibration of individual, especially static, components of the blower unit, which is ultimately transmitted to the air and can be perceived as noise.
- a known measure for reducing the rotating sound of blower units is to arrange a damping or elastic material in transition areas or joints between two static components (e.g. housing parts) of a blower unit, so that the relevant components of the blower unit are not directly or essentially directly with one another are in contact but only indirectly through that between the Damping or elastic material arranged on components.
- the relevant components are thereby at least partially decoupled from a vibration point of view. This means that the transmission of vibrations from one component to the other can be reduced or avoided and the rotating sound of the blower unit can therefore be reduced overall.
- the damping or elastic material can be, for example, a plastic or a rubber.
- damping or elastic materials does not make sense in all applications.
- the use of such materials is problematic, particularly in the case of components that interact directly with a rotor of the blower unit (e.g. surround the rotor at least in sections).
- the reason for this is that in order to optimize the efficiency of the rotor, it is desirable to have the smallest possible gap between the rotor of a blower unit (or the blades of the rotor) and a component that at least partially surrounds the rotor in order to thereby minimize aerodynamic losses.
- the use of a damping or elastic material for vibration-related decoupling of the component surrounding the rotor at least in sections from other components of the blower unit enables relative displacements of the components in question to one another, which ultimately creates the risk of the rotor brushing against the housing part surrounding the rotor at least in sections .
- This can lead to mechanical damage to the rotor or to the component of the blower unit that at least partially surrounds the rotor.
- An increase in gap losses in the rotor in question and thus a reduction in the efficiency of the blower unit is also conceivable in this context.
- the use of damping or elastic materials and the arrangement of these materials at contact points of various components increases the material costs and the assembly effort of a blower unit.
- a blower unit in particular for use in a vacuum cleaner, comprising a blower rotor, a blower cover and a diffuser, the blower rotor being rotatably arranged in the blower cover at least in sections by a motor and the blower cover and the diffuser being connected to one another in this way at least in sections in that the blower cover and the guide apparatus form, at least in sections, a common flow housing or at least in sections a common boundary of a flow channel and wherein the fan cover is formed at least in sections from a first plastic and the guide apparatus is formed at least in sections from a second plastic that is different from the first is.
- a blower unit which comprises at least one blower rotor, a blower cover and a diffuser.
- the blower cover is arranged in such a way that it surrounds the blower rotor at least in sections or completely or forms a housing around the blower rotor at least in sections, so that the blower rotor can rotate in the blower cover. If the blower rotor is set in rotation, the blower rotor interacts with the blower cover via the flow guided through the blower rotor or between the blower rotor and the blower cover.
- the blower rotor is rotatably mounted in the blower unit, in particular on a shaft, so that it can be set in rotation via a motor of the blower unit.
- the blower cover and the blower rotor form, at least in sections, a common flow channel or a common flow housing, wherein an air flow sucked in by the blower rotor is passed or can be passed through the flow channel or the flow housing.
- the blower rotor forms at least one hub contour or inner wall of the flow channel or flow housing and the blower cover forms at least one housing contour or outer wall of the flow housing or flow channel.
- at least one rotor blade of the fan rotor extends at least in sections between the hub contour and the housing contour.
- the blower cover of the blower unit is further connected to the diffuser of the blower unit, in particular to an outer wall of the diffuser, with the blower cover and the diffuser forming a common flow housing at least in sections.
- the blower cover and the guide apparatus are in direct or substantially direct contact with one another, at least in sections.
- the blower cover and the guide apparatus, in particular where the guide apparatus and the blower cover are connected to one another touch each other directly or essentially directly (in the sense of: directly), at least in sections. It can therefore be provided that, particularly where the blower cover and the diffuser are connected to one another, no damping or elastic material is arranged between the blower cover and the diffuser.
- blower cover is connected at least in sections to an outer wall of the nozzle, so that preferably the blower cover and the outer wall of the nozzle form a common outer wall of a flow channel of the blower unit, in particular the flow channel extends at least in sections over the blower cover or blower rotor and extends the guide apparatus.
- essentially direct contact is also understood to mean that at least in sections a, preferably thin, intermediate layer, in particular an adhesive layer, is arranged between the components in question, which, however, is not suitable for vibration-related decoupling of the two components.
- adhesive layers for connecting components are deliberately made thin so that a There is essentially direct contact between the relevant components.
- the presence of an adhesive bond for connecting two components is also understood to mean direct or essentially direct contact between the components.
- the blower cover is formed at least in sections, in particular predominantly or completely, from a first plastic and the guide apparatus is formed at least in sections, in particular predominantly or completely, from a second plastic that is different from the first.
- the first plastic is therefore designed to be different in terms of material and the corresponding material properties (at least partially or completely) from the material of the second plastic and its material properties.
- at least those sections of the blower cover which are in direct contact with the nozzle are made of the first plastic and at least those sections of the nozzle which are in direct contact with the blower cover are made of the second plastic.
- At least the inner wall and/or the outer wall is formed at least in sections, in particular completely, from the second plastic. It has proven to be particularly advantageous in terms of vibration decoupling of the blower cover and the diffuser if the blower cover is made entirely of the first plastic and/or at least the outer wall of the diffuser is made of the second plastic or the diffuser is made entirely of the second plastic is.
- a blower unit according to the invention has the advantage that the blower cover and the guide device are at least partially decoupled from one another in terms of vibration technology by using different plastics. If, during operation of the blower unit, the blower cover is stimulated by the rotor rotating in the blower cover or the air flow sucked in by the rotor, the vibration of the blower cover is not transmitted or not completely transmitted to the diffuser due to the different material properties of the blower cover and diffuser. The rotating sound of the blower unit is therefore reduced compared to a uniform material design of the blower cover and diffuser. Furthermore, the goal of reducing rotating sound is determined solely by the choice of material for the blower cover and guide apparatus achieved.
- the use of a damping or elastic material to decouple the guide device and the blower cover can therefore be omitted, which allows the blower unit to be manufactured particularly cost-effectively and easily. There is also no need for regular renewal of the damping or elastic material in the life cycle of a blower unit, which can increase the reliability of the blower unit.
- the diffuser and the blower cover can be fixed in their position relative to one another. This in turn allows the gap between the blower cover and the blower rotor or the rotor blades of the blower rotor to be made particularly small, which in turn enables particularly low gap losses and a correspondingly higher efficiency or energy-efficient operation of the blower rotor.
- the blower rotor serves to suck air into the blower through an inlet opening of the blower unit or the blower cover or to introduce kinetic energy into the air flow. It can be provided within the scope of the invention that the fan rotor comprises at least one, preferably several, rotor blades, preferably in order to introduce kinetic energy into the air flow sucked in by the fan rotor.
- the guide device serves to influence a swirling air flow emerging from the fan rotor in terms of its flow direction and speed.
- the diffuser is designed in such a way that at least the swirl or the peripheral speed of an air flow emerging from the fan rotor is reduced or can be reduced by the diffuser and / or an axial or essentially axial outflow from the diffuser is realized or can be realized.

- the guide apparatus comprises an inner wall and an outer wall, with the inner wall and the outer wall forming a flow channel or a flow housing at least in sections.
- the diffuser is arranged in the blower unit in such a way that an air flow emerging from the blower rotor, in particular from a flow channel or flow housing formed by the blower rotor and the blower cover, is directed into the flow channel or the flow housing of the diffuser or . can be conducted.
- the blower unit comprises at least one motor, wherein the motor can be brought into operative connection with the blower rotor in such a way that the blower rotor can be set in rotation by the motor.
- the fan rotor is arranged on a shaft, wherein the shaft can be driven by the motor or set in rotation.
- the motor can preferably be designed as an electric motor.
- the first plastic of the blower cover has a larger modulus of elasticity than the second plastic of the diffuser, in particular that the modulus of elasticity of the first plastic is at least twice, preferably three times, as large as the modulus of elasticity of the second plastic. This has shown the advantage that the transmission of vibrations from the blower cover to the diffuser can be effectively reduced.
- the first plastic from the blower cover has a modulus of elasticity of at least 5000 MPa, in particular at least 6000 MPa, preferably at least 7000 MPa, particularly preferably at least 7200 MPa or 7200 MPa and / or that the second plastic from the diffuser has a modulus of elasticity of at least 1000 MPa, in particular at least 1500 MPa, preferably at least 2000 MPa, particularly preferably at least 2400 MPa or 2400 MPa.
- a selection of the first and second plastics, each with a modulus of elasticity in the above-mentioned value ranges, has proven to be particularly advantageous with regard to vibration decoupling of the blower cover and the control device.

Also or alternatively, it can be provided that the first plastic of the blower cover has a density of at least 1200 kg/m 3 , in particular at least 1250 kg/m 3 , preferably at least 1290 kg/m 3 or 1290 kg/m 3 and/or that the second plastic from the guide apparatus has a density of at least 1100 kg/m 3 , in particular at least 1150 kg/m 3 , preferably at least 1200 kg/m 3 or 1200 kg/m 3 .
- first plastic of the blower cover with a modulus of elasticity of 7200 MPa and a density of 1290 kg/m 3 and also a second plastic with a modulus of elasticity of 2400 MPa and a density of 1200 kg/m 3 has to be considered in terms of vibration technology Decoupling the guide apparatus from the blower cover and thus for reducing the rotating sound of a blower unit according to the invention has proven to be particularly advantageous.
