Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flexible duct for a vacuum cleaner. More specifically, the present invention relates to a flexible duct for a vacuum cleaner tool.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 are examples of flexible crevice tools 100 , 200 that can be used with a vacuum cleaner.
  • the tools 100 , 200 are intended to reach into and clean crevices or gaps to be cleaned.
  • Both of the tools shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprise a flexible duct 300 formed from a pliable casing material 400 which is reinforced by a rigid frame 500 . Any steering force applied to the tool 100 , 200 when it is in a crevice causes the pliable casing material 400 to bend.
  • the rigid frame 500 is used to improve the control and steering of the tool, and to prevent the flexible duct 300 from folding over itself or kinking. Folding or kinking of the duct should be prevented as this can restrict the flow of fluid drawn through the tool 100 , 200 , and may also cause damage to the flexible duct 300 .
  • the tools 100 , 200 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 have rigid frames 500 with a pliable casing material 400 fitted over the top to seal the duct.
  • a relatively thick casing material 400 is required in order to make a resilient duct 300 .
  • the casing material 400 stands proud of the frame.
  • the pliable casing 400 placed over the top of the frame 500 can therefore increase the overall profile of the tool.
  • the added thickness of the pliable casing material 400 may prevent the tool from used in narrower crevices.
  • the present invention provides a vacuum cleaner tool comprising a flexible duct, the flexible duct comprising a helical frame being formed of a rigid material and comprising a plurality of loops spaced about a helical axis, and a helical strip being formed of pliable material and provided between the loops of the helical frame to seal the frame, wherein each loop comprises a central band with at least one wing, the helical strip is secured to the at least one wing such that the exterior surface of the helical strip is flush with the exterior surface of the central band.
  • the duct of the present invention requires a helical strip to seal the space between the rigid frame loops.
  • the helical strip may be in the form of a single ribbon, or a series of bands that together provide a sealed duct.
  • the helical strip is used to link the loops of the helical frame.
  • the helical strip may be overmoulded or bonded onto the helical frame. Less material can then be used to make a sealed duct by providing a helical strip only between the loops of the helical frame, compared to a full sheath covering both the loops and the space between the loops.
  • the helical strip between the loops of the helical frame can be formed so that it is flush with the profile of the loops, instead of fitting a sheath over the frame and increasing the profile of the tool.
  • the profile of the tool can be reduced so that it can fit into narrower gaps and crevices.
  • the helical strip can be used to cover parts of the loops. For instance, the at least one wing on the loops can be covered or concealed by the helical strip whilst the central band of the loops are uncovered or exposed.
  • the at least one wing may extend all the way around the central band in a direction parallel with the helical axis, and the height of the at least one wing may be less than the height of the central band in a direction normal to the helical axis.
  • a greater contact area with the helical strip can be achieved by having a wing that has the same shape as, and extends away from, the edge of the central band.
  • the strength of the at least one wing is increased if it extends around the central band of each loop. For at least these two reasons, it can be said that the robustness of the duct is improved such that damage to the duct or tool can be prevented.
  • each loop has a raised section, which is the central band, and lower section, which is the at least one wing.
  • the height of the at least one wing may be less than the height of the central band in a direction normal to the helical axis.
  • the central band may be flanked by a wing on each side, so that the general profile of each loop can be said to have a raised central section (i.e. the central band) flanked by two lower sections (i.e. the wings). Both the inner and outer surfaces of the helical strip are provided flush with each of the central band once the strip is secured to the frame.
  • the at least one wing may have at least one anchor for securing the helical strip to the frame.
  • the at least one anchor point may be a hole, or a keying feature that engages with the helical strip allowing for a more robust tool.
  • the helical strip is provided only in the space between the loops of the frame. Thus, the anchor points allow the tool to withstand flexing without the helical strip coming away or unravelling from the frame. This is to be avoided as the helical strip provides a means for sealing the duct.
  • the cross section of the flexible duct may be a general rectangular shape, comprising two longer side surfaces connected by shorter top and bottom surfaces.
  • the general rectangular shape of the flexible duct allows for a narrow profile crevice tool that can fit into most gaps and crevices.
  • the requirement of a general rectangular shape does not preclude the curving or shaping of the sides of the rectangular duct for aesthetic or ergonomic purposes.
  • the helical strip may have indents provided on a surface of the flexible duct.
  • the indents allow for improved flexibility of the duct and also provide a crease for the duct to fold into as it flexes.
  • the indents may be provided on a side surface of the flexible duct. This allows for improved flexing of the duct in the desired side to side (or left/right) direction, instead of flexing in an up/down direction.
  • the tool of the present invention may be a telescopic tool comprising a first and second conduit; the first conduit has a narrower profile than the second conduit, the second conduit surrounds the first conduit such that the first conduit slides in and out of the second conduit allowing for extension of the tool, and the flexible duct forms part of the first conduit.
  • the use of the flexible duct on a telescopic tool allows for a longer tool that can be placed into gaps or crevices to be cleaned.
  • the provision of a rigid conduit together with a conduit having the flexible duct improves the handling and manoeuvrability of the tool since the user can hold onto the rigid conduit and steer to the tool.
  • the present invention provides a vacuum cleaner duct comprising, a helical frame being formed of a rigid material and comprising a plurality of loops spaced about a helical axis, and a helical strip being formed of pliable material and provided between the loops of the helical frame to seal the frame, wherein each loop comprises a central band with at least one wing, the helical strip is secured to the at least one wing such that the exterior surface of the helical strip is flush with the exterior surface of the central band.

  • FIG. 6 is a top view of the tool of FIG. 3 ;
  • FIG. 7 is a plan view of the tool of FIG. 3 .
  • the first conduit 2 is connected at one end to the second conduit 3 and at the opposite end to the first connector 4 .
  • the second conduit 3 is connected to the second connector 5 .
  • the second connecter 5 is located at the end opposite to where the first conduit 2 connects to the second conduit 3 .
  • the first connector 4 can be used for connecting a nozzle or cleaner head to the end of the tool 1 . Alternatively, the first connector 4 can act as an inlet for the tool without the need for a nozzle or cleaner head attachment.
  • the second connector 5 is used to connect the tool 1 to a wand or hose that further connects to a vacuum cleaner.
  • the tool 1 further comprises locking means 6 for locking the conduits 2 , 3 of the tool 1 out at maximum extension (as shown in FIG. 3 ) and also for locking the first conduit 2 in a retracted position when it is located within the second conduit 3 .
  • the first conduit 2 comprises a flexible portion or duct 7 and rigid portions 8 at either end of the flexible duct 7 .
  • the flexible duct 7 is shown in more detail in FIGS. 4 to 7 and comprises a helical frame 9 and a helical strip 10 .
  • the flexible duct 7 has a generally rectangular shape cross section, with two longer side surfaces 11 , 12 (best shown in FIG. 6 ) and two shorter top and bottom surfaces 13 , 14 (best shown in FIG. 7 ).
  • the flexible duct 7 can flex in directions normal to the helical axis 15 .
  • the flexible duct 7 is free to flex in a left to right direction, and also in an up and down direction, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 respectively. Dashed lines are used to illustrate the general degree of movement of the flexible duct 7 in directions normal to the helical axis 15 .
  • the helical frame 9 is formed of a single piece of rigid material and comprises a plurality of loops 16 that are arranged around the helical axis 15 .
  • the loops 16 are spaced at regular intervals along the helical axis 15 with a space between each loop 16 .
  • the profile of each loop 16 is shown in more detail in FIG. 5 .
  • Each loop 16 comprises a central band 17 flanked by wings 18 , 19 on either side of the band 17 , the band 17 being of greater thickness than the wings 18 , 19 . That is to say that the height of the wings 18 , 19 is less than the height of the central band 17 in a direction normal to the helical axis 15 .
  • Each wing 18 , 19 extends all the way around the central band 17 in a direction parallel with the helical axis 15 and is provided with anchors 20 which are used as keying features during the manufacturing process of the tool 1 .
  • One wing 19 is provided with two projections 21 that extend towards an adjacent loop 16 .
  • the projections 21 extend in a direction that is parallel to the helical axis 15 .
  • the projections 21 are positioned on the top and bottom of the wing 19 (best shown in FIG. 5 ).
  • the projections 21 act to restrict the movement of the flexible portion 7 in the up and down direction relative to the movement of the flexible portion 7 in the left to right direction.
  • the helical strip 10 is formed of a single piece of a pliable material in the form of a tape, bandage or ribbon.
  • the helical strip 10 is extends along the helical axis 15 and around part of the helical frame 9 .
  • the helical strip 10 is either overmoulded onto or bonded to the helical frame 9 such that the strip 10 fills the space between each of the loops 16 , providing a continuous coupling between the loops 16 of the frame.
  • the helical strip 10 seals the spaces in the helical frame 9 to provide a duct for fluid to be drawn through.
  • the helical strip 10 is provided between the loops 16 only on the wings 18 , 19 , such that the exterior of the helical strip 10 is flush with the exterior of the central band 17 .
  • the central band 17 of each loop 16 is exposed along the length of the duct 7 . Since the helical strip 10 is provided in the space between the loops 16 and flush with the loops 16 the overall exterior profile of the flexible duct 7 is reduced.
  • the helical strip 10 is able to flex and stretch, allowing the flexible portion 7 to bend or twist from a straight position and return back to its original shape.
  • the helical strip 10 has indents 22 provided on the side surfaces 11 , 12 of the duct 7 .
  • the indents 22 improve the flexibility of the duct 7 in two ways. Firstly, the indents 22 reduce the stiffness of the helical strip 10 on a side surface 11 , 12 that lengthens during a flexing movement (that is to say, the side surface 11 , 12 on the outside of the bend of the flexible duct portion 7 ).
  • the indents 22 allow for the material of the helical strip 10 to crease and fold more readily on a side surface 11 , 12 that contracts during a flexing movement (that is to say, on the side surface 11 , 12 on the inside of the bend of the flexible duct portion 7 ).
  • the anchors 20 provided on the wings 18 , 19 of each loop 16 of the frame 9 act as keying features as the strip 10 is overmoulded onto the frame 9 .
  • the pliable material flows over the wings 18 , 19 and into or onto the anchors 20 .
  • the anchors 20 are holes that are shaped so that the helical strip 10 is secured onto the frame 9 once the pliable material has cured.
  • the pliable material is only provided on the wings 18 , 19 such that, once cured, the exterior surface of the helical strip 10 is flush with the exterior of the central band 17 .
  • a mould insert can be placed inside the flexible portion 7 of the first conduit 2 and against the inside surface of the loops 16 such that the pliable material flows and cures against the mould insert. The mould insert is then removed after curing to leave behind a smooth interior surface of the duct 7 as the helical strip 10 is cured flush with the interior profile of the loops 16 .
  • the tool 1 is extended so that the first conduit 2 is exposed as it slides outs of the second conduit 3 .
  • the travel of the first conduit 2 is locked when the tool 1 is in an extended position (as shown in FIG. 3 ).
  • the profile of the tool 1 is such that at least the first conduit 2 can be placed into a gap or crevice.
  • the user can manoeuvre the tool 1 by holding either the second conduit 3 , or by holding an extension wand or handle connected via the second connector 5 .
  • the flexible duct 7 of the first conduit 2 can bend or flex against the walls or floor of the crevice.
  • the user will naturally force the tool 1 against the surface/floor of the crevice to be cleaned.
  • the flexible duct 7 will flex in an up/down and/or left/right direction.
  • the projections 21 limit the range of movement of the helical frame 9 . This improves the control of the tool 1 and gives the user the ability to steer the tool 1 in a crevice without the duct 7 flexing in an unwanted direction (i.e. up/down direction).
  • the movement of the flexible duct 7 in the left and right direction is improved by the indents 21 that are provided on the side surfaces of the helical strip 10 .
  • the indents 21 provide improved flexibility, in that they are able to stretch more easily than the rest of the helical strip 10 since less material is present.
  • the indents 21 provide a crease or fold for the helical strip 10 to bend into when flexing the duct 7 .
  • the steering of the tool 1 in a left/right direction is easier relative to steering in an up/down direction.
  • the flexible duct 7 is shown as part of a tool 1 for a vacuum cleaner, it will be appreciated that such a duct could be used on other parts of the vacuum cleaner, such as a suitable replacement for a hose, or a tube, or a conduit connecting parts of a vacuum cleaner.
