Definitions
- the air motor is arranged in parallel with thecleaning inlet, but valve means are provided for varying the resistance to flow through the latter so that the distribution of air flow between the air motor and the cleaning inlet may be .varied.
- This valve means is preferably shifted in response to a change in the direction of movement of the nozzle over thesurface being cleaned.
- one wall of the suction cleaning inlet is pivoted so that the width of this opening is greater during movement of the nozzle in one direction than it is during movement in the opposite direction.
- the vertical component .of the pushing force applied to the handle or wandisin a downward direction and therefore adds to the weightof the nozzle. Consequently, it is advantageous to reduce the size of the cleaning inlet during forward motion, inasmuch as this reduces the area of the carpet or rug subject tosuction and therefore reduces the force resulting from this suction .which tends to pull the nozzle downwardly against the carpet.
- the rotary brush is disposed substantially entirely outside of :the region of low pressure sexisting within the nozzle. (3onsequently, the .rugflor carpet immediately undernea'ththe rotary brush has no tendency .to be sucked up. Different carpets, chiefly depending upon the nature of the backing, are lifted .from the :floor under the .influen'cenf suction different distances and hence it is:not possibleztorpropeily allow for this diiferentlifting-if the chamber in which the brush rotates issubjeetto suction.

- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken onthe line of Fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 is a:-bottom-view of the nozzle shown in th'e preceding figures, but'with a platem'ember removed "and;

- reference character'10 designates a body member, preferably intheform of adie casting. This member is formed with an exhaust "open ing at the rear in whichan elbow coupling 12 is mounted. by means of-a swivel'connection'14. A'v'ertical -wall 16 of the body member forms the rear boundary of asnction cleaning inlet 1-8.
- this passageway has an opening 34 through thewalhlfi into the space Stland an opening'36-.througharear wall- 38 of the body.
- the pivoted wa'llZti acts as a valvefor varying the resistanceto flow through the path of .flow from inlet 18 to the elbowlll. v a
- the lower end of shaft 42 carries a worm 52 which meshes with a worm gear 54 mounted on one end of a shaft 56 rotatably mounted in body member 10.
- the other end of this shaft carries a pinion 58 which meshes with an idler gear 60 which in turn drives a pinion 62 mounted on the end of a shaft 64 carrying rows of brush bristles 66, the shaft and bristles together constituting a rotary brush.
- 'Ihe gears 58, 60 and 62 are disposed in a pocket 67 formed in one end of body 10.
- This brush is enclosed within a brush chamber 68, the pivoted wall 20 constituting the rear wall of this chamber. .
- the forward wall 70 of the brush chamber terminates .well above the surface being cleaned so that the interior of the chamber is under substantially atmospheric pres sure.
- the brush is rotated in the direction of the arrow 72, that is with the lower part of the brush moving to- .wards the inlet 18.
- a plate member 74 is secured to the lower part of the body so as to constitute a gliding surface for supporting the nozzle on the rug or carpet and also a closure for enclosing the different elements of the gear drive between the shaft 42 and the shaft 64.
- the stops 27 for limiting forward movement of wall 20 conveniently may be formed as part of plate 74.
- the air drawn in through the opening 18 is drawn through the pile of the rug and removes the dirt therefrom which is carried into the opening 18 along with the dirt dislodged by the rotary brush.
- This dirtladened air passes through the opening 34 into the passageway 32 and thence through the .opening 36 to the elbow 12, as is shown by the arrows 78. Consequently, no dirty air passes through the turbine.
- the fingers "28 contacting the rug pivot the wall 20 to the position shown in Fig. 4, thus substantially reducing the area of the cleaning inlet 18 and hence materially increasing the resistance to flow therethrough.
- the decrease in the area of the inlet 18 during forward movement of the nozzle is also advantageous in that a smaller area of the rug is subject to suction and hence there is less resistance to movement of the nozzle.
- the vertical component of the pushing force applied to the nozzle is directed downwardly, thus tending to increase the resistance to movement over the rug and hence this increase is more or less counteracted by the decrease'in downward force resulting from the reduction in size of the inlet opening.
- the springs 26 and the fingers 28 together move the pivoted wall 20 to its forward position, as shown in Fig. 2, where the opening 18 is of maximum size. This reduces the resistance of flow of air through this inlet and consequently the rate of flow through the inlet 18 is increased, while the flow through the turbine is decreased and hence under these conditions more air is available for removing dirt from the rug and less is r 4 available for driving the turbine.
- the springs 26 are desirable as they aid in overcoming the suction force which, when the size of inlet 18 is small, has a greater tendency to hold wall 20 in its rearward position than when the inlet is large.
- the brush chamber 68 is disposed entirely outside the region of low pressure, there is no tendency for the rug directly underneath the brush to be lifted. Consequently, the brush may be so adjusted with respect to the bottom surface of plate 74 that the ends of the bristles 66 have the proper contact with the upper surface of the rug or carpet.
- This preferably is such that the bristles touch the surface rather lightly inasmuch as this gives a beneficial whisking effect which removes surface dirt more effectively than a heavier contact which causes the bristles to flex so that the sides, rather than the ends of the bristles, are in contact with the rug.
- lighter contact results in much less wear to both the rug and the bristles. This light brushing also aids in brushing up matted down nap, which is a problem with some synthetic carpets and rugs.
