また、前記隔壁体43の上部においては、吸込具4の上部材13に設けたスリット部16に相対して、U溝部44を形成している。U溝部44の底面には、隔壁体43の下方に設けた塵埃吸込口42と連通する洩らし孔45が形成され、前記スリット部16を介し外気と連通するものとしている。前記スリット部16に設けられる風量調整レバー17の取り付けにおいては、吸込具4の上面を摺動動作し、使用者の操作体となる摘み部46の下方へ延設した軸部47をスリット部上方より挿入し、挿入後、前記隔壁体43のU溝部44に嵌り合う構成で組み立てられるものである。前記軸部47先端へは、抜け止め作用並びに、隔壁体43のU溝部44の底面に設けた洩らし孔45の閉鎖面を形成する保持部品49を圧入嵌合している。前記構成において、風量調整レバー17の摘み部46を操作することで、前記洩らし孔45の開口を摺動に応じ閉鎖可能となり、洩らし面積の調整を行うことができる。その結果、回転ブラシ室34内の真空度調整を基に、吸込具4の被掃除面80への吸着力の調整を行えるものとしている。   Further, a U-groove 44 is formed in the upper part of the partition wall 43 so as to be opposed to the slit 16 provided in the upper member 13 of the suction tool 4. On the bottom surface of the U-groove portion 44, a leakage hole 45 communicating with the dust suction port 42 provided below the partition wall body 43 is formed, and communicated with the outside air through the slit portion 16. When the air volume adjusting lever 17 provided in the slit portion 16 is attached, the shaft portion 47 extending below the knob portion 46 that slides on the upper surface of the suction tool 4 and serves as a user's operation body is provided above the slit portion. After being inserted, it is assembled in a configuration that fits into the U groove portion 44 of the partition wall body 43 after insertion. A retaining part 49 that forms a closing surface of a leak hole 45 provided on the bottom surface of the U-groove portion 44 of the partition wall 43 and press-fitting is fitted to the tip of the shaft portion 47. In the above configuration, by operating the knob 46 of the air volume adjusting lever 17, the opening of the leakage hole 45 can be closed according to sliding, and the leakage area can be adjusted. As a result, the suction force on the surface to be cleaned 80 of the suction tool 4 can be adjusted based on the adjustment of the degree of vacuum in the rotating brush chamber 34.

35は図に示す通り前記回転ブラシ室34の後方に設けられ、前記塵埃吸引口42より以降電気掃除機本体1への吸引経路を形成するタービン室である。前記回転ブラシ室34と同様に、上部材13及び下部材12より延設する印籠嵌合部を有した壁面31、33で仕切られた空間部であり、吸引経路として構成したものである。主に前記回転ブラシ22の回転駆動源となるエアータービン30と、延長管3に接続する為の接続部54を備えた回転アーム9を配設している。これよりタービン室35に配設する各種機能手段の構成について説明する。   A turbine chamber 35 is provided at the rear of the rotary brush chamber 34 as shown in the drawing and forms a suction path from the dust suction port 42 to the vacuum cleaner body 1 thereafter. Similar to the rotating brush chamber 34, it is a space portion partitioned by wall surfaces 31 and 33 having stamping fitting portions extending from the upper member 13 and the lower member 12, and is configured as a suction path. An air turbine 30 that mainly serves as a rotational drive source for the rotary brush 22 and a rotary arm 9 having a connection portion 54 for connecting to the extension pipe 3 are disposed. The configuration of various functional means arranged in the turbine chamber 35 will now be described.

30は、長手方向に延びる複数のブレード36と、その両端に側壁37を形成させ略円筒状に形成したエアータービンであり、前記側壁37中央を貫通かつ片側一方に突出する軸体38を形成させると共に、回転摩擦抵抗を軽減する為の軸受け部品39並びに、前記回転ブラシ22への回転伝達を行う駆動ベルト25と、その取り付け及び回転減速を狙いとした歯車40を設けている。前記軸受け部品39においては、両端に潤滑油を含浸させたメタル軸受け39−aを設け、その中間部にはグリス噴入部を有した略円筒の形状に構成させた部品であり、前記軸体38を回転可能に貫通挿入している。また、その先端には小径歯車40を軸体38へ回転不能に圧入固定させ、前記エアータービン30の回転に動機させ構成にて取り付けられている。この周辺の外郭形状を含めた構成においては、前記エアータービン30より側面方向に且つ、吸込具4の側端まで突出させた軸受け部品39の先端に、回転伝達を行う駆動ベルト25を設け配設することにより、同じくそれら機能手段を覆う保持部を形成した外郭を、吸込具4の側端まで突出させる構成としている。突出させる外郭構成においては、前記機能手段に対し干渉を避ける為の最小限のクリアランスを有し、前記上部材13並びに下部材12より延設させた上下2つの外郭により、タービン室35及び回転ブラシ室34同様上下部品の狭持嵌合により構成されている。特に吸込具4の前方回転ブラシ22の側端と、その後方タービン室35中央より突出した軸受け部品39の先端とで、連結する駆動ベルト25らを覆う外郭構成においては、前記機能手段(回転ブラシ22、タービン室35、軸受け部品39、駆動ベルト25)を4辺とする略四角形配置構成とし、その中央部に外郭を形成しない貫通孔状の空間孔部14−aを形成させたものとなっている。   Reference numeral 30 denotes a plurality of blades 36 extending in the longitudinal direction, and an air turbine formed in a substantially cylindrical shape by forming side walls 37 at both ends thereof, and a shaft body 38 penetrating the center of the side wall 37 and projecting to one side is formed. At the same time, there are provided a bearing part 39 for reducing rotational frictional resistance, a drive belt 25 for transmitting rotation to the rotary brush 22, and a gear 40 for mounting and reducing the rotation. In the bearing part 39, metal bearings 39-a impregnated with lubricating oil are provided at both ends, and a part having a substantially cylindrical shape having a grease injection part at an intermediate part thereof is provided. Is inserted in a rotatable manner. Further, a small-diameter gear 40 is press-fitted and fixed to the shaft body 38 so as to be non-rotatable at the tip thereof, and is motivated by the rotation of the air turbine 30 and attached in a configuration. In the configuration including the outer shape of the periphery, a drive belt 25 that transmits rotation is provided at the tip of the bearing part 39 that protrudes in the lateral direction from the air turbine 30 to the side end of the suction tool 4. By doing so, it is set as the structure which makes the outer shape which similarly formed the holding part which covers those functional means protrudes to the side end of the suction tool 4. FIG. In the outer shell structure to project, the turbine chamber 35 and the rotating brush are provided by two upper and lower outer shells extending from the upper member 13 and the lower member 12 with a minimum clearance for avoiding interference with the functional means. Like the chamber 34, the upper and lower parts are sandwiched and fitted. In particular, in the outer configuration covering the driving belt 25 and the like connected by the side end of the front rotating brush 22 of the suction tool 4 and the tip of the bearing part 39 protruding from the center of the rear turbine chamber 35, the functional means (rotating brush) 22, the turbine chamber 35, the bearing component 39, and the drive belt 25) are arranged in a substantially square shape with four sides, and a through-hole-shaped space hole 14-a that does not form an outer shell is formed at the center. ing.

また、前記吸込具4の中央タービン室35を境に、相対した位置に同じく貫通孔状の空間孔部14−bを有した外郭部においては、内部に機能手段を配設させないものの、吸込具持ち上げ時の(所謂空中状態における)左右の質量バランス違いによる傾きを防止するための外郭部位として構成させている。また、その前記空間孔部14−a、14−bは、図8に示す様に、家屋内における吊り下げ収納用ヒンジA等への引っ掛けを可能としている。回転アーム9は、タービン室35内全幅に渡り、両端に回転軸51、52を設けた略円筒状の風洞部53に、掃除機本体1との接続手段となる延長管3への着脱を可能とした接続部54を構成し、前記上部材13並びに下部材12による上下からの壁面31、33の狭持による軸支持構成によって、回動自在に配設保持されている。また前記風洞部53の内側には、前記エアータービン30を配設している。その配設については、エアータービン30より片側に突出する軸体38並びに、軸受け部品39を前記回動アーム9の回転軸52内に貫通させ、連続回転可能とし、回転アーム9は前記吸込具4上部材13の食い切り範囲内55で前記接続部54の当接をもって回動止点を決定し、上下回動自在に同軸構成として配設している。   Further, in the outer portion having the through hole-like space hole portion 14-b at the opposite position with the central turbine chamber 35 of the suction tool 4 as a boundary, although no functional means is disposed inside, the suction tool It is configured as an outer portion for preventing an inclination due to a difference in mass balance between right and left (in a so-called aerial state) during lifting. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the space holes 14-a and 14-b can be hooked to a hanging storage hinge A or the like in the house. The rotary arm 9 can be attached to and detached from the extension pipe 3 serving as a connection means to the cleaner body 1 in a substantially cylindrical air channel portion 53 provided with rotary shafts 51 and 52 at both ends over the entire width of the turbine chamber 35. The connecting portion 54 is configured and is rotatably arranged and held by a shaft support structure in which the upper wall 13 and the lower member 12 hold the wall surfaces 31 and 33 from above and below. Further, the air turbine 30 is disposed inside the wind tunnel portion 53. With respect to the arrangement, the shaft body 38 projecting to one side from the air turbine 30 and the bearing part 39 are passed through the rotating shaft 52 of the rotating arm 9 so that the rotating arm 9 can be continuously rotated. The rotation stop point is determined by the contact of the connecting portion 54 within the cut-off range 55 of the upper member 13, and is arranged as a coaxial structure so as to be rotatable up and down.

タービン室35内下面には、吸込具4の下部材12を貫通する格子状孔とした第2吸引口20を設けている。第2吸引口20は、被掃除面80への吸込具4接地状態にて閉鎖されるものであり、吸込具4の持ち上げ時には、閉鎖状態から開放状態となり外気を吸引する。また、第2吸引口20は前記エアータービン30と相対しない位置に形成させたことにより、前記吸引された外気はエアータービン30を通過しない経路81を辿る為、単に前記塵埃吸込口42及びエアータービン30を通過する経路風量82の減圧を作用するものとなる。すなわち回転ブラシ22の回転駆動手段であるエアータービン30の駆動力低下を行い、吸込具4の持ち上げ時に露出する回転ブラシ22の回転数を同様低下せる効果を生み出すものとなっている。これは、所謂危険性の軽減を図る安全装置的な役割を果たす構成部位である。   A second suction port 20, which is a lattice-like hole penetrating the lower member 12 of the suction tool 4, is provided on the inner lower surface of the turbine chamber 35. The second suction port 20 is closed when the suction tool 4 is grounded to the surface 80 to be cleaned. When the suction tool 4 is lifted, the second suction port 20 is changed from the closed state to the open state and sucks outside air. Further, since the second suction port 20 is formed at a position not facing the air turbine 30, the sucked outside air follows a path 81 that does not pass through the air turbine 30, so that the dust suction port 42 and the air turbine are simply used. The pressure reduction of the path | route air volume 82 which passes 30 acts. That is, the driving force of the air turbine 30 that is the rotation driving means of the rotating brush 22 is reduced, and the effect of similarly reducing the number of rotations of the rotating brush 22 exposed when the suction tool 4 is lifted is produced. This is a component that plays a role of a safety device for reducing the risk.

また、前記第2吸引口20を形成した下部材12の外郭側、被掃除面80に対面する下面周囲には、軟質材からなるブラシ毛で構成した壁状部材62を配設している。前記壁状部材62は、硬質な木床等の被掃除面80へ吸込み具4を接地させた状態において、発生するローラー32高さ分の隙間63に伴う閉鎖不足を補うものであり、前記ブラシ長さ64をローラー32高さよりも長く形成し配設されている。被掃除面80への接地状態における吸込具4の集塵性能においては、前記第2吸引口20の閉鎖レベルに伴い吸塵作用に繋がる真空度が高くなることから、より閉鎖レベルの向上が要求されるものである。   A wall-like member 62 made of soft bristle is disposed around the outer surface of the lower member 12 in which the second suction port 20 is formed, and around the lower surface facing the surface to be cleaned 80. The wall-shaped member 62 compensates for the shortage of closure due to the gap 63 corresponding to the height of the roller 32 generated when the suction tool 4 is grounded to the surface to be cleaned 80 such as a hard wooden floor. The length 64 is formed longer than the roller 32 height. In the dust collection performance of the suction tool 4 in a grounded state with respect to the surface to be cleaned 80, the degree of vacuum that leads to the dust suction action increases with the closing level of the second suction port 20, so that an improvement in the closing level is required. Is.

(実施の形態2)
次に、本発明の実施の形態2における吸込具の構成について、図9及び図10を用いて説明する。図9に示すように、大きくは前記実施の形態1と同一の構成であり、一部上部材13並びに下部材12を貫通させ、吸込具4中央のタービン室35横左右2箇所に設けた空間孔部14−a、14−bにおいて、内側輪郭部に軟質材で構成するガイド体91を設けた構成としている。その詳細な構成においては、図10に示す様に、断面形状を略H状に形成したガイド体91の上下溝部92、93を、タービン室35側面から突出し吸込具4の側端より前方の回転ブラシ室34に連結させてなる外郭部の上部材13、並びに下部材12に狭持嵌合させて取り付けを行う構成としている。特にその取り付け範囲においては、前記貫通孔状の空間孔部14−a、14−b内側輪郭部全周に渡り配設するものとなっている。この構成における作用については、実施の形態1に記載した同様家屋内における吊り下げ収納用ヒンジ等の引っ掛けを可能とする事に加え、前記ヒンジ等の引っ掛け部との間に軟質材で構成させたガイド体91が介在することにより、干渉による吸込具4への傷つき防止を達成させるものとなる。
(Embodiment 2)
Next, the structure of the suction tool in Embodiment 2 of this invention is demonstrated using FIG.9 and FIG.10. As shown in FIG. 9, the structure is largely the same as that of the first embodiment, and a part of the upper member 13 and the lower member 12 are penetrated, and the space provided in two places on the left and right sides of the turbine chamber 35 in the center of the suction tool 4. In the holes 14-a and 14-b, a guide body 91 made of a soft material is provided in the inner contour portion. In the detailed configuration, as shown in FIG. 10, the upper and lower groove portions 92 and 93 of the guide body 91 having a substantially H-shaped cross section project from the side surface of the turbine chamber 35 and rotate forward from the side end of the suction tool 4. The upper member 13 and the lower member 12 of the outer portion connected to the brush chamber 34 are nipped and fitted to be attached. In particular, in the attachment range, the through hole-like space hole portions 14-a and 14-b are arranged over the entire inner contour portion. As for the operation in this configuration, in addition to enabling the hanging storage hinges and the like in the house as described in the first embodiment, a soft material is formed between the hinges and the like. By interposing the guide body 91, the suction tool 4 can be prevented from being damaged by interference.

(実施の形態3)
次に、本発明の実施の形態3における吸込具の構成について、図11及び図12を用いて説明する。特に主体的な部品並びに配置構成においては、前記実施の形態1と同一の構成であり、一部変更する構成について以下に説明する。上部材13並びに下部材12を貫通させ、吸込具4中央のタービン室35横左右2箇所に設けた空間孔部14−a、14−bにおいて、閉鎖面101を形成し吸込具4の外郭上方並びに下方が凹部102、103を形成する構成とし、前記外郭上方凹部102の回転ブラシ室34壁面に貫通口107並びに開閉自在となる蓋部品104を取り付けている。前記蓋部品104は、図12に示す様に、回転ブラシ室34内壁に相対した、湾曲状の板母材に摘み部105を形成した部品であり、前記回転ブラシ室34外郭部の内壁に設けられた保持リブ106により摺動可能に狭持して取り付けられている。吸込具4における通常使用時では、常時閉鎖されたものとして使用を行い、使用者の任意適開閉操作時のみ開口するものとしている。この構成における作用については、貫通させた空間孔部14−a、14−bの補強壁として作用するため吸込具4の強度を向上させると共に、前記凹部102の形成により、吸込具4前方より吸塵できず使用者が拾い上げた粗大塵埃を一時的に集積する部位として利用可能とし、前記蓋部品104の開口により吸引経路との連通が達成される事から、従来吸込具4の取り外しによる延長管等の別途吸塵手段の大口径部からの吸塵処理操作が不要となり、使用性の向上が図れるものとなる。また、任意適開閉操作時のみ開口するものとしている為、通常状態における回転ブラシ室34での真空度劣化に対しても防止する構成となり、集塵性能劣化の発生も無いものとなる。
(Embodiment 3)
Next, the structure of the suction tool in Embodiment 3 of this invention is demonstrated using FIG.11 and FIG.12. In particular, the main components and the arrangement configuration are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a configuration that is partially changed will be described below. The upper member 13 and the lower member 12 are penetrated, and the closed surface 101 is formed in the space holes 14-a and 14-b provided in two places on the left and right sides of the turbine chamber 35 in the center of the suction tool 4, and the upper part of the suction tool 4 In addition, the recesses 102 and 103 are formed in the lower part, and the through-hole 107 and the lid part 104 that can be opened and closed are attached to the wall surface of the rotating brush chamber 34 of the outer upper recess part 102. As shown in FIG. 12, the lid part 104 is a part in which a knob 105 is formed on a curved plate base material facing the inner wall of the rotating brush chamber 34, and is provided on the inner wall of the outer portion of the rotating brush chamber 34. The holding rib 106 is attached so as to be slidable. At the time of normal use in the suction tool 4, it is used as being always closed, and is opened only at the time of the user's arbitrary opening / closing operation. With respect to the operation in this configuration, the strength of the suction tool 4 is improved because it acts as a reinforcing wall for the space holes 14-a and 14-b that are penetrated, and dust is absorbed from the front of the suction tool 4 by forming the recess 102. Since it is possible to use it as a part for temporarily collecting coarse dust picked up by the user, and the communication with the suction path is achieved by the opening of the lid part 104, an extension pipe or the like by removing the conventional suction tool 4 etc. This eliminates the need for a dust-absorbing treatment operation from the large-diameter portion of the dust-absorbing means, thus improving the usability. In addition, since the opening is made only at the time of arbitrary appropriate opening and closing operation, it is configured to prevent the degree of vacuum in the rotating brush chamber 34 in the normal state, and the dust collection performance is not deteriorated.

(実施の形態4)
次に、本発明の実施の形態4における吸込具の構成について、図13及び図14を用いて説明する。主体的な部品並びに配置構成においては、前記実施の形態3と同一の構成であり、一部変更する構成について以下に説明する。前記外郭上方凹部102のタービン室35の壁面に貫通口115並びに開閉自在となる蓋部品110を取り付けている。前記蓋部品110は、図14に示す様に、タービン室35内壁に相対した、板状の母材に摘み部111を形成した部品であり、前記タービン室35外郭部の内壁に設けられた保持リブ112により摺動可能に狭持して取り付けられている。吸込具4における通常使用時は、閉鎖しておき、使用者の必要に応じた操作によりのみ開口するものである。この構成における作用については、前記実施の形態3と略同様であるが、一点吸込口に連通する事に比べ、真空度の高い部位での別途投入口の形成となるため、より強い吸塵作用を得ることになり、より使用性の向上が図れるものとなる。
(Embodiment 4)
Next, the structure of the suction tool in Embodiment 4 of this invention is demonstrated using FIG.13 and FIG.14. The main components and the arrangement configuration are the same as those in the third embodiment, and a configuration that is partially changed will be described below. A through-hole 115 and a lid part 110 that can be opened and closed are attached to the wall surface of the turbine chamber 35 of the outer upper recess 102. As shown in FIG. 14, the lid component 110 is a component in which a knob 111 is formed on a plate-shaped base material, which is opposed to the inner wall of the turbine chamber 35, and is held on the inner wall of the outer portion of the turbine chamber 35. The rib 112 is slidably attached by the rib 112. During normal use of the suction tool 4, it is closed and opened only by an operation according to the needs of the user. The operation in this configuration is substantially the same as in the third embodiment, but compared to communicating with a one-point suction port, a separate inlet is formed at a site with a high degree of vacuum. Thus, the usability can be further improved.

以上のように、本発明にかかる電気掃除機もしくは電気掃除用吸込具は、小型軽量化を基に、収納性並びに粗大塵埃処理ができるので、使用性を向上させる等の用途にも適用できる。   As described above, since the vacuum cleaner or the vacuum cleaner according to the present invention can be stored and treated with coarse dust on the basis of the reduction in size and weight, it can be applied to uses such as improving usability.
