Definitions
- ABSTRACT A hose coupling arrangement is provided which directly connects the cleaner, proper, with its suction hose and also with a pneumatic pulse-carrying conduit that activates cleaning action.
- the hose coupling arrangement because of its configuration, insures easy communication between that portion of the pneumatic pulse-carrying conduit extending along the hose and that portion of the pneumatic pulse-carrying conduit fixed to the cleaner.
- a vacuum cleaner is a canister or tanktype cleaner.
- a housing which normally rests on the floor, includes a motor, dirt-storing bag and fan system therein for creating a vacuum and filtering dirt-laden air drawn into it by reason of the vacuum.
- a hose extends from this housing, and is normally provided at its opposite end with some type of cleaning nozzle such as a crevice tool, furniture tool or floor nozzle.
- Actuation of such a cleaner is generally occasioned by manipulation of a switch mounted on the cleaner housing by either the hand or foot of the user so as to provide suction at the tool end of the suction hose.
- a switch mounted on the cleaner housing by either the hand or foot of the user so as to provide suction at the tool end of the suction hose.
- Such an arrangement requires user effort in moving between the cleaner housing and the manipulative end of the suction hose when the cleaner is turned on and off.
- a remotely actuated cleaner with the initiating button for cleaning action mounted proximate the tool end ofthe hose, would provide the advantage of greater user efficiency since initiation or termination of cleaner operation would not require user movement between the cleaner hose end and the cleaner, per se.
- Such a cleaner is disclosed in application Ser. No. 397,151 (Hoover Case 2101), filed concurrently herewith, invented by Charles C. Coons and titled A Fluid or Pneumatically Actuated Floor Care Appliance.
- remote actuation of it is dependent entirely upon the use of a pressure pulse created at the tool end of the suction hose which is carried down the hose and thence into the cleaner.
- Actuation may be fluidic (pneumatic) so that a direct communication (conduit) for the pressure pulse must be provided between the actuatable electric switch mounted in the cleaner housing and the remote end of the suction hose where the pressure pulse is created.
- the invention is provided in a canister cleaner as exemplary of a floor care appliance, with the same including an electric switch mounted within the canister cleaner housing and including the provision for either manual actuation at the housing or remote, pneumatic pulsing actuation.
- the pressure pulse or impulse can be by a button-operated piston or a squeeze bulb or any other equivalent means (not shown).
- This pulse is led through a pneumatic, flexible conduit or relatively small diameter, mounted with the suction hose, proper, so that pressure pulse may be communicated down the hose towards the cleaner housing and electric switch.
- a hose coupler part is fixedly mounted to the suction hose by means of a clamp ring or the like.
- the pneumatic conduit communicates with this coupler part by means of a rigid tube, mounted within the coupler part, over which the pneumatic, flexible conduit is telescoped.
- This coupler part terminates in a generally flat face which includes an arcuately extending groove opening towards the housing coupler part.
- a bore, in the hose coupler part, extends from the rigid tubular member to the groove so as to be in confluent communication with the arcuate groove.
- the housing coupler part is mounted fixed relative to the cleaner housing and extends inwardly thereof so as to provide communication for the flow of suction cleaner air inwardly into the cleaner.
- This coupler part also includes a bore extending longitudinally relative to the axis of the coupling part so as to open to the arcuate groove of the hose coupler part when the suction hose is assembled with the cleaner housing.
- the just-mentioned pulse-carrying bore extends inwardly towards the cleaner housing and then turns at a generally rightangle, with this portion of the bore receiving another rigid tubular piece that also extends outwardly of the housing coupler part.
- Attached to the extending end of the rigid tubular piece is another pneumatic, flexible conduit, also of relatively small diameter, that extends around one-half the periphery of the cleaner and then inwardly of the cleaner housing, adjacent the hinge for the top section of the housing of the cleaner, to be confluently connected at its inner terminating end to a pneumatically actuatable push-push mechanism and switch that provides initiation of the cleaner motor.
- a bayonet coupling arrangement is utilized for the connection of the two coupler parts that insures proper orientation of the arcuate groove with its abutting bore to secure confluence.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional, elevational view of a cleaner incorporating the hose coupling arrangement of the instant invention
- FIG. 2 is a partial cross-sectional elevational view of the same cleaner and showing the hose coupling arrangement somewhat enlarged;
- FIG. 3 is generally a cross-sectional elevational view of the hose coupling arrangement of the instant invention taken on line 33 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 but looking in the opposite direction and taken on line 44 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 5 is generally a cross-sectional elevational view of the hose coupling arrangement taken on line 55 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 6 is a fragmentary elevational view of the cleaner housing adjacent the hose entrance and with the hose end shown in phantom.
- a canister cleaner 10 having a housing 11 composed of a medial housing section 12, an upper housing section 14, a lower housing section 16 and a medallion section 18, with these sections cooperating to form the canister cleaner l0, proper.
- a motor 20 that provides the driving force for a fan system 22 having a pair of fans 24 and 26 so that high performance for the cleaner 10 is obtained to yield an acceptable and easily marketable cleaner for the housewife.
- a housing coupling fitting 28 communicates with the interior of the canister cleaner housing 11, with the same being mounted on the medial housing section 12 so that it communicates with a chamber 30, within the housing 11, within which is disposed a conventional dirt-collecting bag 32.
- the flow of cleaner air then, is through the housing coupling fitting 28, the dirtcollecting bag 32 and from thence to the motor 20, for cooling, with this air being motivated by the fans 24 and 26.
- a hinge 36 mounts the upper housing section 14 to the medial housing section 12 so that the canister cleaner 10 may be opened and the dirt-collecting bag 32 replaced when necessary.
- a cord reel 38 is conveniently housed between the upper housing section 14 and the medallion section 18. This cord reel conventionally carries a cord 40 which may be unreeled by the user of the cleaner and plugged into a handy wall outlet (not shown) to provide electrical power for the cleaner.
- a handle 42 is fixedly attached to the housing 11 to provide a user grasping means so that the cleaner 10 may be pulled along the floor or carried in a manner similar to a suitcase.
- a pair of large rollers 44, 44 (only one shown) are mounted at the rear portion of the housing 11 and a single caster wheel 46 is mounted in the front portion of this cleaner housing so that a threepoint floor-engaging configuration is employed.
- a push-push mechanism or structure 60 (e.g. FIG. 2) is motivated by a pressure pulse or impulse carried by a first pressure pulse conduit 64 mounted to and carried by a suction hose 66, with the hose having a handle wand or hose tube (not shown) attached to its remote end (not shown) so that cleaning tools for a variety of purposes may be mounted on the end of the handle wand for the various cleaning operations undertaken by the user of the canister cleaner 10.
- a second pressure pulse conduit extends around (not shown) and within the cleaner 10 and is connected to the push-push mechanism or structure 60. Impulse or pressure waves, then, are carried by the first and second pressure pulse conduits 64 and 70 to the push-push mechanism 60 after having been created by a buttonoperated piston, squeeze bulb or the like (not shown) located in the remote or wand end (not shown) of the cleaner hose 66.
- the cleaner 10 also includes a manually operated switch button 74 extending outwardly of the medallion section 18 of the cleaner 10, adjacent the top of the cleaner so that a user may initiate cleaner action manually, at the cleaner housing, itself.
- Suction hose 66 is substantially conventional and includes, at the boundary of its interior wall, a coiled spring formed in the manner of a helix and extending for the length of the suction hose 66.
- a vinyl coating 132 is extruded over the coiled spring 130 to form a unitary wall so that they coact together to provide the needed flexibility for the hose 66.
- Disposed over the outside of the vinyl coating 132 is a nylon scrim sleeve, with this sleeve being united to the vinyl coating by the application of another vinyl coating 134 and heat to unify all the components of suction hose 66.
- the above description refers only to that portion of the hose in which the flexible tubing 128 is not disposed.
- the flexible hose 128 is situated against the first vinyl coating 132 and the scrim sleeve and the second vinyl coating 134 placed thereover so that the flexible tubing 128 extends parallel to the axis of the hose 66, heat and the second vinyl coating 134, of course,.
- a coupling member 136 of suction coupling fitting has a general annular configuration save for an enlarged, peaked portion 138 that accommodates the flexible tubing 128. This coupling member is fixedly mounted on the end of suction hose 66.
- the coupling member 136 includes a pair of transversely extending coincident bores 140, 140 (only one shown) and also the male members 142, 142 and 143 of bayonet coupling arrangement 144.
- Received in the bores 140, 140 are a pair of diametrically opposed pins 146, 146 (only one shown with lateral section rotated to bottom) that are integral with a hose crimp ring 148.
- This ring is of a split configuration and may include a living hinge (not shown) opposite to the split for'easy encompassing assembly around the suction hose 66.
- the hose crimp ring is less than a full circumference to provide a gap at its top that accommodates the bulge occasioned by the first pressure pulse conduit 64.
- the hose crimp ring also includes an inner periphery 147 having a helix surface so as to conform to the outer helix surface of suction hose 66.
- a hose connection collar 150 taking the form of a hollow cylinder having a radially extending circular flange 151 is disposed in the end of suction hose 66.
- the outer diameter of the cylinder portion is slightly smaller than the internal diameter of the suction hose 66 so that it is easily received within suction hose 66.
- the outer diameter of the flange 151 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the suction hose 66 so that it provides a seating face against which a portion of the first coupling fitting 136 engages.
- a felt gasket 152 is also utilized in suction coupling fitting 135 between the end of hose 66 and the flange 151 to provide a sealing relationship between the suction coupling fitting 135 and the suction hose 66.
- First pressure pulse conduit 164 extends through and terminates at the cleaner end of the suction coupling fitting 135 in the following manner.
- Flexible tubing 128 extends into the peaked portion 138 of coupling 136 in a space 139 to be confluently connected to short rigid rube 154 that is confluently connected, in turn, to an axially extending bore 156 provided in a tube seal 158.
- Tube seal 158 is annular in shape and made of compressible material so as to be sealingly received in another axially extending bore 160, coaxial with bore 156, and formed in coupler member 136. Beyond the tube seal 158, the bore 160 gradually necks down as it approaches the cleaner so as to form a smaller diameter bore 162 extending towards and terminating nearly at the cleaner end of the coupler member 136.
- a segmental, arcuate groove 164 is formed that communicates with the axially extending bore 162.
- Arcuate groove 164 makes allowance for some misalignment between the termination of the first pressure pulse conduit 64 and the beginning of the second pressure pulse conduit 70, in the event that the suction coupling fitting 135 and the hose coupling fitting 28 are engaged, with some slight imperfection in the axial alignment of axially extending bore 162 in coupler 136 and a similarly axially extending bore 166 in the housing coupling fitting 28.
- the axially extending bore 166 in housing coupling fitting 28 is, of course, directly connected with the segmental, arcuate groove 164 in suction coupling fitting 136.
- bore 166 merges with a transverse bore 168 that extends to and terminates at the arcuate periphery of housing coupling fitting 28.
- a short rigid tube 170 extends into bore 168 and outwardly therefrom to provide an easy connection to a second flexible tubing 172 of second pressure pulse conduit 70.
- Second pressure pulse conduit 70 then extends around the cleaner (not shown) and into the housing 11 thereof adjacent the hinge 36 for connection to the push-push mechanism 60.
- handle 42 includes attached integrally at its lower end a tube fitting 174 of generally hollow, annular shape having a bore 175.
- Tube fitting 174 includes an outer rim portion 176 that extends radially inwardly relative to the remainder of tube fitting 170 to form, essentially, a stepped bore within tube fitting 174.
- An enlarged flange 178 on housing coupling fitting 28 is nested within the inner portions of this stepped bore and maintained in this position by the press-fit of housing coupling fitting 28 with the housing 11 through which it extends.
- bayonet lugs 142, 142 and 143 of suction coupling fitting are also nested after having been inserted through a series of three bayonet cutouts 180, 182 and 182 in rim portion 176 and turned clockwise.
- bayonet cutout 180 is of larger dimension than the'bayonet cutouts 182, 182.
- bayonet lug 143 is larger than bayonet lugs 142, 142, with bayonet lug 143 being only slightly smaller than bayonet cutout 180 but larger than bayonet cutouts 182, 182.
- the bayonet coupling arrangement 144 serves to orient the adjoining terminations of first and second pressure pulse conduits 64 and 70, respectively, to provide direct communication therethrough, with a series of inwardly projecting shoulders 184, 184, 184 limiting turning movement (clockwise) of suction coupling fitting 135 to align the first and second pneumatic pulse conduits.
- the operation of the invention should now be selfevident.
- the hose coupling fitting 135 and attached hose 66 is mounted to cleaner 10 by alignment of the bayonet lugs 142, 142 and 143 with bayonet cutouts 182, 182, 180, respectively.
- the hose coupling fitting 136 is then inserted through the bayonet cutouts and the bore 175 of tube fitting 174.
- the hose coupling fitting 135 is rotated clockwise into abutment with inwardly projecting shoulders 184, 184, 184 to lock the bayonet lugs behind the rim portion 176.
- the arcuate groove 164 is placed in confluent communication with bore 166 of housing coupling fitting 28.
- The'aforesaid requisite insertion depth also places the confronting faces of housing coupling fitting 28 and hose coupling fitting 135 into abutting relationship.
- the flow path of cleaner suction air is then complete and is conventional.
- the flow path for the pneumatic pulse through the coupling arrangement is also complete. This flow path, within hose coupling fitting 135, being through flexible tube 128, rigid tube 154, the tapered portion of bore 162, segmental arcuate groove 164 and then within housing coupling fitting 28 through bore 166, bore 168, rigid tube and thence to flexible tube 162 to the push-push mechanism 60.
