Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Upright-type vacuum cleaner with an upper body with dust collection container, with a bottom unit, which is movable by a chassis on the surface to be cleaned, the upper body is at least pivotally mounted relative to the ground unit and can be locked in a parking position, in the the vacuum cleaner standing on the surface to be cleaned is in a substantially vertical position, with a motor fan for generating a negative pressure acting on the surface to be cleaned, and with an air line leading from the bottom unit into the dust collecting container, which has an interface and fluidly behind the interface a formed as a hose or hose-tube combination component that allows independent of the ground unit suction operation.
  • the following describes three types of vacuum cleaner that differ in their construction and operation. As common features all have a motor-driven blower, a dust collection room and one or more adapted to the particular purpose tillage equipment.
  • the vacuum cleaner has a housing which is movable on rollers and / or skids on the ground to be processed.
  • the engine fan and the dust collector are arranged in the housing.
  • the soil treatment device - here called floor nozzle - is connected via a suction hose, possibly with an intermediate suction pipe with the dust collection chamber.
  • the housing is brought into the desired position during the suction process by pulling on the suction tube.
  • the motor fan and the dust collector are also arranged in a housing. From the housing extends on one side of a suction pipe, which connects a floor nozzle with the dust collector, and on the other hand, a handle with which the housing is maneuvered into the desired position.
  • An essential feature of an upright is a movable floor unit, which carries a torso with a large dust collector.
  • the two parts are pivotally mounted to each other and usually fixable in a parking position in which the upper body is approximately vertical when the ground unit is in the use position on a horizontal ground. In this position, the upright is automatic.
  • this locking is released and tilted the upper body by a certain angle in a working position. The swing angle depends on the one hand on the size of the User and others from the respective use.
  • a handle on the upper body is used to guide the entire device.
  • the air line has an interface and fluid behind the interface designed as a hose or hose-tube combination component.
  • a piece of pipe is held in a plug-in receptacle in most cases.
  • different suction attachments can be placed on the suction end and the resulting arrangement can be used as in a conventional vacuum cleaner.
  • a relatively long hose is used, see recordable WO 2007/008770 A1 , It is also known to use stretchable flexible tubes in length.
