Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small-sized spinning rotor with good cleanability. <P>SOLUTION: The vacuum cleaner is composed of a spinnable rotor 30 and cleaners 32 which scrape up dust. The rotor 30 has cleaner installing sections 30a which project approximately radially and at which one ends of the cleaners 32 are attached on the end side and in a longitudinal direction and rib bodies 30b which also project approximately radially and is positioned on an opposite spinning direction side of the cleaner 32 and receives the opposite spinning direction side of the cleaner 32 when the rotor 30 spins. When the rotor 30 spins, the opposite spinning direction side of the cleaner 32 is received by the rib body 30b and becomes more elastic to enhance the polishing effect and the cleaning effect on a cleaned surface. Additionally, the cleaner installing section 30a and the rib body 30b are formed in a projecting manner to effectively receive suction air sucked and increase the rotary torque of a spinning rotor 16 while cleaning out the dust by the spinning of the cleaner installing section 30a by which the cleanability is enhanced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、回転して被掃除面の塵埃を掻き上げる回転ロータと、その回転ロータを組み込んだ掃除機用床吸込具と、その掃除機用床吸込具と連結される電気掃除機に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a rotary rotor that rotates and sweeps up dust on a surface to be cleaned, a floor suction tool for a vacuum cleaner incorporating the rotary rotor, and a vacuum cleaner connected to the floor suction tool for the vacuum cleaner. is there.

従来のこの種の回転ロータについて、図10、図11を用いて説明する。図10は、従来の回転ロータを収納した掃除機用床吸込具の上カバーを外した状態の斜視図、図11(a)は、同回転ロータの側面図である。   This type of conventional rotary rotor will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 10 is a perspective view of a state in which an upper cover of a floor suction tool for a vacuum cleaner storing a conventional rotary rotor is removed, and FIG. 11A is a side view of the rotary rotor.

図10及び11(a)において、従来の回転ロータ1は、外形断面形状が略円形で掃除機用床吸込具2に回転自在に取着されたロータ3と、ロータ3の外周に設けた螺旋状の溝部3aに一端が装着されると共に被掃除面の塵埃を掻き上げるブラシ状清掃体4aやブレード状清掃体4bから構成され、ベルト5を介して掃除機用床吸込具2に内蔵された電動機などの駆動手段6で回転駆動されるようになっている。   10 and 11 (a), a conventional rotary rotor 1 includes a rotor 3 having a substantially circular outer cross-sectional shape and rotatably attached to a floor suction tool 2 for a cleaner, and a spiral provided on the outer periphery of the rotor 3. One end is attached to the groove-shaped groove 3 a and the brush-like cleaning body 4 a and the blade-like cleaning body 4 b for scraping dust on the surface to be cleaned are built in the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool 2 via the belt 5. It is rotationally driven by driving means 6 such as an electric motor.

上記構成により、図示しない電気掃除機を運転し、掃除機用床吸込具2に内蔵された駆動手段6を運転すると、回転ロータ1が回転し、ブラシ状清掃体4aやブレード状清掃体4bで床などの被掃除面上の塵埃が掻き上げられ、その掻き上げられた塵埃は、掃除機用床吸込具2の底面に設けた開口部7より流入し、吸引通路8を経て、図示しない電気掃除機に吸引されるようになっている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   With the above configuration, when a vacuum cleaner (not shown) is operated and the driving means 6 incorporated in the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool 2 is operated, the rotary rotor 1 rotates, and the brush-like cleaning body 4a and the blade-like cleaning body 4b Dust on the surface to be cleaned such as the floor is picked up, and the dust thus picked up flows from the opening 7 provided in the bottom surface of the floor suction tool 2 for the vacuum cleaner, passes through the suction passage 8, and is not shown in the figure. It is attracted | sucked by the cleaner (for example, refer patent document 1).

しかしながら、上記従来の回転ロータ1のブラシ状清掃体4aやブレード状清掃体4bは、単に、ロータ3に放射状に装着されただけなので、こしが弱く、回転ロータ1を回転させたときに、被掃除面を軽くなでるだけで、掃除性能は決してよくなかった。こしの強いブラシ状清掃体4aにするために、剛性の強いブラシ毛或いは、太いブラシ毛でブラシ状清掃体4aを形成することも可能だが、それでは、ブラシ毛の先端で被掃除面に傷をつけるという問題があり有効ではなかった。   However, since the brush-like cleaning body 4a and the blade-like cleaning body 4b of the conventional rotary rotor 1 are simply attached to the rotor 3 in a radial manner, the strain is weak, and when the rotary rotor 1 is rotated, it is covered. The cleaning performance was never good just by stroking the cleaning surface lightly. In order to make the brush-like cleaning body 4a strong, it is possible to form the brush-like cleaning body 4a with strong bristle or thick brush hair. There was a problem of attaching, and it was not effective.

そこで、上記問題を解決するために、図11(b)に示すように、ロータ3の外周面で、かつ反回転方向側に、すなわち清掃体4の後方に凸部3bを形成し、ロータ3が矢印方向に回転したときに、凸部3bで清掃体4の反回転方向側を受けて、清掃体4のこしを強くするようにしたものが考案されている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。

Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), a convex portion 3 b is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 3 and on the counter-rotating direction side, that is, behind the cleaning body 4. Has been devised in which the convex portion 3b receives the counter-rotation direction side of the cleaning body 4 to make the cleaning body 4 more rigid (for example, see Patent Document 2).
JP 2005-21403 A Microfilm of actual application No. 2-17038 (No. 4-348)

しかしながら、図11(b)に示すような従来の回転ロータ1の構成では、清掃体4をロータ3に略放射状に植設するようにしているため、清掃体4の植設寸法Pを確保すると共に、ロータ3の強度確保の観点から、ロータ3の中心Cと清掃体4の下端との間Gを所定の距離確保する必要があった。このため、ロータ3の外径寸法を小さくすることができず、掃除機用床吸込具2の薄型化を図るのが困難になるという課題があった。   However, in the configuration of the conventional rotary rotor 1 as shown in FIG. 11B, the cleaning body 4 is implanted in the rotor 3 substantially radially, so that the planting dimension P of the cleaning body 4 is ensured. In addition, from the viewpoint of securing the strength of the rotor 3, it is necessary to secure a predetermined distance G between the center C of the rotor 3 and the lower end of the cleaning body 4. For this reason, the outer diameter size of the rotor 3 cannot be reduced, and there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce the thickness of the floor suction tool 2 for a vacuum cleaner.

本発明は、上記従来の課題を解決するもので、簡単な構成で、小型で、掃除性能に優れた回転ロータ、掃除機用床吸込具及び電気掃除機を提供する事を目的とする。   This invention solves the said conventional subject, and it aims at providing the rotary rotor, the floor suction tool for vacuum cleaners, and the vacuum cleaner which were simple structure, were small and were excellent in the cleaning performance.

前記従来の課題を解決するために、本発明の回転ロータは、掃除機用床吸込具に回転自在に取着されるロータと、被掃除面の塵埃を掻き上げる清掃体とからなり、前記ロータは、略放射状に突出すると共に、先端側側部にかつ長手方向に前記清掃体の一端が装着される清掃体取着部と、同じく略放射状に突出すると共に前記清掃体の反回転方向側に位置し、前記ロータが回転した時に前記清掃体の反回転方向側を受けるリブ体を有するもので、ロータが回転した時に、清掃体の反回転方向側がリブ体で受けられるので、清掃体のこしが強くなり、被掃除面の磨き効果及び清掃効果が向上する。   In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, a rotary rotor according to the present invention includes a rotor that is rotatably attached to a floor suction tool for a vacuum cleaner, and a cleaning body that scrapes up dust on a surface to be cleaned. And a cleaning body attachment portion that protrudes substantially radially and has one end of the cleaning body mounted on the front end side and in the longitudinal direction, and also protrudes substantially radially and on the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body. And a rib body that receives the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body when the rotor rotates. When the rotor rotates, the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body is received by the rib body. It becomes stronger and the polishing effect and cleaning effect of the surface to be cleaned are improved.

また、清掃体取着部やリブ体が突出して形成されているので、掃除機用床吸込具内に吸引される吸い込み風を効率よく受け、回転ロータの回転トルクが大きくなると共に、清掃体取着部の回転によって塵埃が巻き上げられるので、掃除性能が向上する。さらに、清掃体の一端を清掃体取着部の先端側側部に装着するようにしているので、清掃体の装着側端部とロータの中心との距離の確保が容易になるので、その分ロータの外径寸法を小さくすることができ、掃除機用床吸込具の小型化を図ることができる。   Further, since the cleaning body attaching portion and the rib body are formed to protrude, the suction air sucked into the floor suction tool for the vacuum cleaner is efficiently received, the rotational torque of the rotary rotor is increased, and the cleaning body removal is performed. Since dust is rolled up by the rotation of the landing portion, the cleaning performance is improved. Furthermore, since one end of the cleaning body is attached to the tip side portion of the cleaning body attaching portion, it becomes easy to secure the distance between the mounting side end portion of the cleaning body and the center of the rotor. The outer diameter dimension of the rotor can be reduced, and the floor suction tool for a vacuum cleaner can be reduced in size.

また、本発明の回転ロータは、掃除機用床吸込具に回転自在に取着されると共に断面略S字状のロータと、前記ロータの端部にかつ長手方向に形成された清掃体取着部に一端が装着されると共に被掃除面の塵埃を掻き上げる清掃体とからなり、前記ロータが回転した時に前記清掃体の反回転方向側を受ける突出部を、前記ロータ断面における前記清掃体取着部と前記ロータの回転中心との間に配したもので、ロータが回転した時に、清掃体の反回転方向側が突出部で受けられるので、清掃体のこしが強くなり、被掃除面の磨き効果及び清掃効果が向上する。   The rotary rotor of the present invention is rotatably attached to a vacuum cleaner floor suction tool, and has a substantially S-shaped cross section, and a cleaning body attachment formed at the end of the rotor and in the longitudinal direction. And a cleaning body that scrapes up dust on the surface to be cleaned and that receives the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body when the rotor rotates. It is arranged between the landing part and the rotation center of the rotor, and when the rotor rotates, the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body is received by the protruding part, so that the cleaning body becomes stronger and the effect of polishing the surface to be cleaned And the cleaning effect is improved.

また、ロータの断面が略S状に形成されているので、掃除機用床吸込具内に吸引される吸い込み風が効率よく、しかも無駄なくロータで受けられ、回転ロータの回転トルクが大きくなると共に、ロータの回転によって塵埃が巻き上げられるので、掃除性能が向上する。さらに、清掃体の一端を、略S字状のロータの端部に設けた清掃体取着部に装着するようにしているので、清掃体の一端とロータの中心との距離の確保が容易になるので、その分ロータの外径寸法を小さくすることができ、掃除機用床吸込具の小型化を図ることができる。   Further, since the rotor has a substantially S-shaped cross section, the suction air sucked into the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool is efficiently received without waste, and the rotational torque of the rotary rotor increases. Since the dust is wound up by the rotation of the rotor, the cleaning performance is improved. Furthermore, since one end of the cleaning body is attached to the cleaning body attaching portion provided at the end of the substantially S-shaped rotor, it is easy to ensure the distance between the one end of the cleaning body and the center of the rotor. Therefore, the outer diameter dimension of the rotor can be reduced correspondingly, and the floor suction tool for the vacuum cleaner can be reduced in size.

また、本発明の掃除機用床吸込具は、請求項1〜4のいずれか1項に記載の回転ロータを備えたもので、こしの強い清掃体と、清掃体取着部、リブ体で巻き起こされる風、さらに清掃体取着部、リブ体に吹き付けられる吸引風による回転トルクの増大で、優れた掃除性能を発揮することができる。   Moreover, the floor suction tool for vacuum cleaners of this invention is equipped with the rotary rotor of any one of Claims 1-4, and is a strong cleaning body, a cleaning body attachment part, and a rib body. Excellent cleaning performance can be exhibited by the increase in rotational torque due to the wind that is wound up, and the suction wind that is blown onto the cleaning body attaching portion and the rib body.

A pair of rib bodies 30b that protrude and are positioned between the pair of cleaning body attaching portions 30a and receive the side opposite to the rotation direction of the cleaning body 32 when the rotor 30 rotates in the direction of the arrow.

本実施例では、図4に示すように、ロータ30の清掃体取着部30aの先端側側部に設けた溝部31に清掃体32の基部32bを装着することにより、清掃体32の長手方向中心線L1と清掃体取着部30aの長手方向中心線L2とが直交するようになっている。   In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the longitudinal direction of the cleaning body 32 is obtained by mounting the base portion 32 b of the cleaning body 32 in the groove portion 31 provided on the front end side portion of the cleaning body attaching portion 30 a of the rotor 30. The center line L1 and the longitudinal center line L2 of the cleaning body attaching portion 30a are orthogonal to each other.

次に、ロータ30の製造、加工方法についていくつか述べる。
第1の方法は、捩り押出し金型にて、ロータ30の材料を捩りながら押出すもので、1工程で目的の捩り角度に仕上げることができる。ただ、反り、うねりが生じやすく精度が確保しにくく、また、捩り角度が大きくなるほどこの傾向が顕著になるという難点があり、捩り角度は、360度程度が限界で、それ以上は実用上製品にならない。
Next, several methods for manufacturing and processing the rotor 30 will be described.
In the first method, the material of the rotor 30 is extruded while being twisted by a twist extrusion die, and the target twist angle can be finished in one step. However, warpage and undulation are likely to occur, and it is difficult to ensure accuracy, and this tendency becomes more prominent as the torsion angle increases. The torsion angle is limited to about 360 degrees, and beyond that, it is practically a product. Don't be.

第2の方法は、ロータ30の材料を金型で捩りながら押出して、一旦目的の捩り角度より小さな角度のロータ30を作り、このロータ30を後加工にて、目的の捩り角度まで捩って仕上げるもので、後加工が最小限に抑えられるので、断面形状の歪も少なく、精度のよいロータ30を製造することができる。唯一の欠点は、工程が2段階になることである。   In the second method, the material of the rotor 30 is extruded while being twisted by a mold, and a rotor 30 having an angle smaller than a target twist angle is once formed. The rotor 30 is twisted to a target twist angle by post-processing. Since it is finished and post-processing is minimized, the rotor 30 with high accuracy can be manufactured with less distortion of the cross-sectional shape. The only drawback is that the process is in two stages.

第3の方法は、ロータ30の材料をまっすぐに押出して、後加工で、目的の捩り角度まで捩って仕上げるもので、1工程(直線押出し)による製品素材の精度が非常に高く、これを元に後加工で捩るため、捩りによる歪が小さく精度のよいロータ30を製造することができる。また、後捩り加工により、同一金型でも自由にロータ30の捩り角度を設定することができる。欠点としては、中空素材や、大径の素材は捩り加工による断面変形が生じやすく、あまり大きな捩り角度には向かない。   In the third method, the material of the rotor 30 is extruded straight and finished by post-processing to the desired twist angle. The accuracy of the product material in one process (linear extrusion) is very high. Originally, the rotor 30 is twisted by post-processing, so that the rotor 30 can be manufactured with low distortion and high accuracy. Further, the twist angle of the rotor 30 can be freely set even in the same mold by post-twisting. As a disadvantage, hollow materials and large-diameter materials are easily deformed in cross-section by twisting, and are not suitable for a large twist angle.

第4の方法は、同一ライン上に捩り方向に回転する可動盤等の設備を設けて、金型で、ロータ30の材料を押出しながら、同時に捩り加工も行い、目的の捩り角度に仕上げる製法で、捩り工程を別に設ける必要が無く、また、可動盤の回転速度で自由に捩り角度が設定できるというメリットがあるが、設備が複雑になるという欠点がある。   The fourth method is a production method in which equipment such as a movable plate that rotates in the twisting direction is provided on the same line, the material of the rotor 30 is extruded with a mold, and the twisting process is simultaneously performed to finish the target twisting angle. There is no need to provide a separate twisting process, and there is a merit that the twisting angle can be freely set by the rotational speed of the movable platen, but there is a disadvantage that the equipment becomes complicated.

したがって、ロータ30の製造にあたっては、ロータ30の断面形状、材質、厚み、強度、捩り角度、必要な精度等を勘案し、製造方法、加工方法を適宜決定するようにすると良い。また、押出し加工によるロータ30の代表的な製造方法を上記したが、本発明のロータ30は特に、清掃体取着部30aとリブ体30bが放射状に突出して形成されているため、押出しバランスも崩れ易く、押出し時にうねりを生じる場合がある。よって、製品の直進度を確保するために、押出し後に延伸加工を施してもよいものである。   Therefore, in manufacturing the rotor 30, it is preferable to appropriately determine the manufacturing method and the processing method in consideration of the cross-sectional shape, material, thickness, strength, torsion angle, required accuracy, and the like of the rotor 30. Moreover, although the typical manufacturing method of the rotor 30 by an extrusion process was described above, since the cleaning body attachment part 30a and the rib body 30b are protrudingly formed especially in the rotor 30 of this invention, an extrusion balance is also sufficient. It tends to collapse and may cause undulation during extrusion. Therefore, in order to ensure the straightness of the product, a drawing process may be performed after the extrusion.

次に、上記構成による回転ロータ30と、それを組み込んだ床吸込具10の、動作、作用について、図5を用いて説明する。   Next, operation | movement and an effect | action of the rotary rotor 30 by the said structure and the floor suction tool 10 incorporating it are demonstrated using FIG.

図5において、図示しない電気掃除機並びに床吸込具10の電動機22の運転を開始すると、回転ロータ16が、実線矢印方向に回転する。そして、清掃体32の先端が被掃除面に接するときに、その清掃体32の反回転方向側が、その清掃体32の反回転方向側に位置するリブ体30bの先端で受けられるので、清掃体32のこしが強化され、被掃除面上の塵埃を効率よく掻き上げることができる。掻き上げられた塵埃は、電気掃除機によって作用する吸引力により、床吸込具10の底部に設けた吸い込み口13から流入し、吸引口21、接続管18を経て、電気掃除機に吸引される。   In FIG. 5, when the operation of the electric vacuum cleaner (not shown) and the electric motor 22 of the floor suction tool 10 is started, the rotary rotor 16 rotates in the direction of the solid arrow. And when the front-end | tip of the cleaning body 32 touches a to-be-cleaned surface, since the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body 32 is received by the front-end | tip of the rib body 30b located in the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body 32, a cleaning body 32 strainers are strengthened, and dust on the surface to be cleaned can be efficiently scraped. The dust that has been scraped up flows from the suction port 13 provided at the bottom of the floor suction tool 10 by the suction force acting by the vacuum cleaner, and is sucked into the vacuum cleaner through the suction port 21 and the connecting pipe 18. .

以上のように本実施例によれば、清掃体32のこしがリブ体30bにより強化されるので、清掃体32を径の細い繊維からなるブラシを用いても、塵埃の掻き上げ性能が劣化することがなく、被掃除面の磨き性能を向上させることができる。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, since the strain of the cleaning body 32 is reinforced by the rib body 30b, even if the cleaning body 32 is made of a brush made of a thin fiber, the dust scavenging performance deteriorates. The polishing performance of the surface to be cleaned can be improved.

また、清掃体取着部30aやリブ体30bがロータ30の表面より突出して形成されているので、掃除機用床吸込具10内に破線矢印のように吸引される吸い込み風を効率よく受け、回転ロータ16の回転トルクが大きくなるので、その分電動機22を小型化することができ、さらに清掃体取着部30aやリブ体30bの回転によって、団扇で風を扇ぐような作用が働き、清掃体32で掻き出された塵埃が、効率よく巻き上げられることになり、電気掃除機の吸引力が多少低下しても、十分な掃除性能を発揮することができるものである。   Moreover, since the cleaning body attaching part 30a and the rib body 30b are formed so as to protrude from the surface of the rotor 30, the suction air sucked into the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool 10 as indicated by the broken line arrow is efficiently received, Since the rotational torque of the rotary rotor 16 is increased, the motor 22 can be reduced in size, and the rotation of the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b acts to blow the wind with a fan, and cleaning. The dust scraped out by the body 32 is efficiently wound up, and sufficient cleaning performance can be exhibited even if the suction force of the electric vacuum cleaner is somewhat reduced.

さらに、清掃体32の基部32bが清掃体取着部30aの先端側側部に装着されているので、すなわち、清掃体32の長手方向の中心線L1と、清掃体取着部30aの長手方向の中心線L2が略直交することにより、清掃体32の装着側端部とロータ30の中心との距離G1の確保が容易になるので、その分ロータ30の外径寸法を小さくしても、回転ロータ16としての必要な強度を確保できるので、掃除機用床吸込具10の小型化を図ることができる。   Further, since the base portion 32b of the cleaning body 32 is attached to the distal end side portion of the cleaning body attachment portion 30a, that is, the longitudinal center line L1 of the cleaning body 32 and the longitudinal direction of the cleaning body attachment portion 30a. Since the center line L2 is substantially orthogonal, it is easy to secure the distance G1 between the mounting side end of the cleaning body 32 and the center of the rotor 30, so that even if the outer diameter dimension of the rotor 30 is reduced accordingly, Since the required strength as the rotary rotor 16 can be ensured, the floor suction tool 10 for a vacuum cleaner can be reduced in size.

また、ロータ30を金属材料で形成することにより、ロータ30に、清掃体取着部30aやリブ体30bが突出されて形成されても、十分な強度が確保され、回転ロータ16が掃除機用床吸込具10に組み込まれて高速で回転しても、何ら支障なく、使用できる。   Further, by forming the rotor 30 with a metal material, sufficient strength is ensured even when the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b are formed protruding from the rotor 30, and the rotary rotor 16 is used for a vacuum cleaner. Even if it is incorporated in the floor suction tool 10 and rotated at high speed, it can be used without any trouble.

また、回転ロータ16を回転駆動する駆動手段として、電動機22を用いることにより絨毯面や多少の凹凸がある被掃除面であっても、回転ロータ16の回転が著しく低下することなく確実に、掃除を行うことができる。   Further, by using the electric motor 22 as a driving means for rotationally driving the rotary rotor 16, even if the carpet surface or a surface to be cleaned with some unevenness is reliably cleaned without significantly reducing the rotation of the rotary rotor 16. It can be performed.

なお、図6に示すように、清掃体取着部30aとリブ体30bの断面を、吸い込み風を受ける側が窪むように湾曲させると、吸い込み風をより効率よく受けるようになり、ロータ30の回転トルクがより大きくなり、掃除性能を大幅に向上させることが出来る。なお、断面を湾曲させるのは、清掃体取着部30aとリブ体30bのいずれか一方でも良い。   As shown in FIG. 6, if the cross sections of the cleaning body attaching portion 30 a and the rib body 30 b are curved so that the side receiving the suction air is recessed, the suction air is received more efficiently, and the rotational torque of the rotor 30 is increased. Becomes larger and the cleaning performance can be greatly improved. In addition, any one of the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b may be curved.

また、上記実施例では、回転ロータ16を駆動する駆動手段として、電動機22を用いたが、電動機22を用いる代わりに、回転ロータ16を吸引風で回転させるようにしても良い。具体的には、特に図示しないが、床吸込具10の外郭11の一部に、外部と回転ロータ室17とを連通する孔を設け、その孔から流入する高速の空気を、ロータ30の一部に設けた羽根車(図示せず)あるいは、清掃体取着部30aとリブ体30bに直接当てて、回転トルクを発生させて、回転ロータ16を回転させるようにしても良い。   Moreover, in the said Example, although the electric motor 22 was used as a drive means which drives the rotary rotor 16, you may make it rotate the rotary rotor 16 with a suction wind instead of using the electric motor 22. FIG. Specifically, although not particularly illustrated, a hole for communicating the outside and the rotary rotor chamber 17 is provided in a part of the outer shell 11 of the floor suction tool 10, and high-speed air flowing from the hole is supplied to the rotor 30. Alternatively, the rotating rotor 16 may be rotated by generating a rotational torque by directly contacting the impeller (not shown) provided in the portion or the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b.

なお、上記実施例では、ロータ30に、一対の清掃体取着部30aと一対のリブ体30bを交互に設けたが、図7に示すように、清掃体取着部30aとリブ体30bのそれぞれ2対を交互に設けるようにすれば、吸引風による回転トルクがより強くなると共に、回転ロータ16の回転がよりスムーズになり、清掃性能をより向上させることができる。   In the above embodiment, the rotor 30 is provided with a pair of cleaning body attaching portions 30a and a pair of rib bodies 30b alternately. However, as shown in FIG. 7, the cleaning body attaching portions 30a and the rib bodies 30b If two pairs are provided alternately, the rotational torque due to the suction air becomes stronger, the rotation of the rotary rotor 16 becomes smoother, and the cleaning performance can be further improved.

図8は、本発明の第2の実施例における回転ロータの断面図である。尚、上記第1の実施例と同一部分について、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。   FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the rotary rotor in the second embodiment of the present invention. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted.

図8において、本実施例における回転ロータ38は、アルミニウムなどの金属材料からなり螺旋状に捩られると共に断面略S字状のロータ38aと、前記ロータ38aの端部にかつ長手方向に形成された清掃体取着部38bと、清掃体取着部38bに一端が装着されると共に被掃除面の塵埃を掻き上げる清掃体32とから構成され、前記ロータ38aが回転した時に前記清掃体32の反回転方向側を受ける突出部38cを、前記清掃体取着部38bと前記ロータ38aの回転中心Cとの間に配したもので、他の構成は、上記第1の実施例と同一である。   In FIG. 8, the rotary rotor 38 in the present embodiment is made of a metal material such as aluminum and is spirally twisted, and has a substantially S-shaped cross section 38a, and is formed at the end of the rotor 38a and in the longitudinal direction. The cleaning body attaching portion 38b and the cleaning body 32 having one end mounted on the cleaning body attaching portion 38b and scooping up dust on the surface to be cleaned are configured so that when the rotor 38a rotates, The protrusion 38c that receives the rotation direction side is disposed between the cleaning body attaching portion 38b and the rotation center C of the rotor 38a, and the other configurations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

以上のように本実施例における回転ロータ38によれば、回転ロータ38が矢印方向に回転すると、清掃体32の反回転方向側が2点鎖線で示されたように突出部38cで受けられるので、清掃体32のこしが強くなり、被掃除面の磨き効果及び清掃効果が向上する。   As described above, according to the rotary rotor 38 in the present embodiment, when the rotary rotor 38 rotates in the direction of the arrow, the anti-rotation direction side of the cleaning body 32 is received by the protruding portion 38c as shown by the two-dot chain line. The cleaning body 32 becomes stronger and the effect of polishing the surface to be cleaned and the cleaning effect are improved.

また、ロータ38aの断面が略S状に形成されているので、掃除機用床吸込具10内に吸引される吸い込み風が効率よく、しかも無駄なくロータ38aで受けられ、回転ロータ38の回転トルクが大きくなると共に、ロータ38aの回転によって塵埃が巻き上げられるので、掃除性能が向上する。   Further, since the rotor 38a has a substantially S-shaped cross section, the suction air sucked into the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool 10 is received efficiently and without waste by the rotor 38a, and the rotational torque of the rotary rotor 38 is increased. And the dust is wound up by the rotation of the rotor 38a, so that the cleaning performance is improved.

さらに、清掃体32の一端である基部32bを、略S字状のロータ38aの端部に設けた清掃体取着部38bに装着するようにしているので、清掃体32の基部32bとロータ38aの回転中心Cとの距離の確保が容易になるので、その分ロータ38aの外径寸法を小さくすることができ、掃除機用床吸込具10の小型化を図ることができる。   Further, since the base 32b, which is one end of the cleaning body 32, is attached to the cleaning body attaching portion 38b provided at the end of the substantially S-shaped rotor 38a, the base 32b of the cleaning body 32 and the rotor 38a are mounted. Since it is easy to secure the distance to the rotation center C, the outer diameter of the rotor 38a can be reduced correspondingly, and the vacuum suction floor suction tool 10 can be downsized.

また、特に図示しないが、清掃体32の毛足が非常に長い場合は、回転ロータ38が図8に示した矢印と逆方向に回転しても、清掃体32の反回転方向側を突出部38cで受けることができるので、清掃体32のこしが強くなり、被掃除面の磨き効果及び清掃効果が向上する。   Although not shown in particular, when the hair of the cleaning body 32 is very long, even if the rotary rotor 38 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow shown in FIG. Since it can be received by 38c, the cleaning body 32 becomes stronger and the polishing effect and the cleaning effect of the surface to be cleaned are improved.

図9は、本発明の第3の実施例における電気掃除機の全体構成を示す図である。尚、上記第1の実施例と同一部分について、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。   FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the overall configuration of the electric vacuum cleaner according to the third embodiment of the present invention. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted.

図9において、本実施例における電気掃除機40は、前部に塵埃を捕集する集塵室41と、後部に電動送風機42を内蔵した電動送風機室43をそれぞれ備えた掃除機本体44と、前記集塵室41に連通するように一端が掃除機本体44に接続されるホース45と、ホース45の他端に設けられたハンドルパイプ46に一端が着脱自在に接続される延長管47とを備え、前記延長管47の他端に、上記第1の実施例における床吸込具10が接続される。ハンドルパイプ46には、掃除機本体44の運転を操作する本体スイッチ46aと、床吸込具10に内蔵された電動機22の運転を操作する吸込具スイッチ46bが設けられている。   In FIG. 9, the vacuum cleaner 40 in the present embodiment includes a dust collection chamber 41 that collects dust at the front portion, and a vacuum cleaner body 44 that includes an electric blower chamber 43 that incorporates an electric blower 42 at the rear portion, A hose 45 having one end connected to the cleaner body 44 so as to communicate with the dust collection chamber 41, and an extension pipe 47 having one end detachably connected to a handle pipe 46 provided at the other end of the hose 45. The floor suction tool 10 according to the first embodiment is connected to the other end of the extension pipe 47. The handle pipe 46 is provided with a main body switch 46 a for operating the cleaner main body 44 and a suction tool switch 46 b for operating the electric motor 22 built in the floor suction tool 10.

上記のように構成された電気掃除機の動作、作用は、以下の通りである。
掃除機本体44内に収納された電源コード(図示せず)を引き出し、そのプラグ(図示せず)を室内のコンセント(図示せず)に差し込んで、ハンドルパイプ46に設けた本体スイッチ46a、吸込具スイッチ46bを操作すると、電動送風機42及び床吸込具10内の電動機22の運転が開始し、それに伴い、吸込具10の底部に設けた吸い込み口13から、清掃体32で掻き上げられた被掃除面上の塵埃が、外気と共に吸引され、延長管47、ハンドルパイプ46、ホース45を経て集塵室41に至り、そこで吸引風に含まれた塵埃が捕集され、きれいになった空気は、掃除機本体44の後部に設けた排気口(図示せず)から排気される。
The operation and action of the vacuum cleaner configured as described above are as follows.
Pull out the power cord (not shown) housed in the vacuum cleaner main body 44, insert the plug (not shown) into an indoor outlet (not shown), the main body switch 46a provided on the handle pipe 46, the suction When the appliance switch 46b is operated, the operation of the electric blower 42 and the electric motor 22 in the floor suction device 10 is started, and accordingly, the object scraped up by the cleaning body 32 from the suction port 13 provided at the bottom of the suction device 10. The dust on the cleaning surface is sucked together with the outside air, reaches the dust collecting chamber 41 through the extension pipe 47, the handle pipe 46, and the hose 45, where the dust contained in the suction air is collected and the cleaned air is It exhausts from the exhaust port (not shown) provided in the rear part of the cleaner body 44.

本実施例によれば、床吸込具10に組み込まれた回転ロータ16の清掃体32のこしがリブ体30により強化されるので、清掃体32を径の細い繊維からなるブラシを用いても、塵埃の掻き上げ性能に優れ、また、細い繊維のブラシを用いることで、磨き効果も向上する。   According to the present embodiment, since the strain of the cleaning body 32 of the rotary rotor 16 incorporated in the floor suction tool 10 is reinforced by the rib body 30, even if the cleaning body 32 is a brush made of a fiber having a small diameter, The scraping performance is excellent, and the brushing effect is improved by using a thin fiber brush.

また、清掃体取着部30aやリブ体30bがロータ30の表面より突出して形成されているので、掃除機用床吸込具10内に吸引される吸い込み風を効率よく受け、回転ロータ16の回転トルクが大きくなるので、その分電動機22を小型化することができ、さらに清掃体取着部30aやリブ体30bの回転によって、団扇で風を扇ぐような作用が働き、それにより清掃体32で掻き出された塵埃が、効率よく巻き上げられることになり、電動送風機42の吸引力が多少低下しても、十分な掃除性能を発揮することができるものである。   Further, since the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b are formed so as to protrude from the surface of the rotor 30, the suction air sucked into the vacuum cleaner floor suction tool 10 is efficiently received and the rotation of the rotary rotor 16 is performed. Since the torque is increased, the electric motor 22 can be reduced in size, and further, the rotation of the cleaning body attaching portion 30a and the rib body 30b acts to blow the wind with a fan, and thereby the cleaning body 32 The scraped dust is efficiently wound up, and even if the suction force of the electric blower 42 is somewhat reduced, sufficient cleaning performance can be exhibited.

さらに、清掃体32の基部32bが清掃体取着部30aの先端側側部に装着されているので、清掃体32の装着側端部とロータ30の中心との距離G1の確保が容易になるので、その分ロータ30の外径寸法を小さくしても、回転ロータ16としての必要な強度を確保できるので、掃除機用床吸込具10をより小型化することが出来、使用勝手の良い電気掃除機を提供することが出来る。   Furthermore, since the base portion 32b of the cleaning body 32 is mounted on the tip side portion of the cleaning body mounting portion 30a, it is easy to ensure the distance G1 between the mounting side end portion of the cleaning body 32 and the center of the rotor 30. Therefore, even if the outer diameter of the rotor 30 is reduced by that amount, the necessary strength as the rotary rotor 16 can be ensured. Therefore, the vacuum suction floor suction tool 10 can be further reduced in size and can be used easily. A vacuum cleaner can be provided.

以上のように、本発明にかかる回転ロータ、掃除機用床吸込具及び電気掃除機は、小型で、掃除性能に優れ、使用勝手が良いもので、各種電気掃除機に使うことができる。   As described above, the rotary rotor, the floor suction tool for vacuum cleaner, and the vacuum cleaner according to the present invention are small in size, excellent in cleaning performance, and easy to use, and can be used in various vacuum cleaners.
