Abstract
A vacuum cleaner nozzle has a front edge (10) and a rear edge (11), an underside (12) intended to face a floor or some other substructure to be vacuum-cleaned. The underside (12) is provided with one front (13) and two (14, 15) rear rest surfaces for supporting of the nozzle on the floor or similar, the front rest surface (13) being positioned centrally along the front edge (10) and the two rear rest surfaces (14, 15) being positioned separate from each other and symmetrically along the rear edge (11). In order to design the nozzle such that it can be used as an all-round nozzle for carpets as well as smooth floors, without comprising any movable part and being able to be produced at low cost and still to give the desired cleaning effect in use, the rest surfaces (13, 14, 15) comprise lint pickups (13′, 14′, 15′) having inclined fibres that project from the rest surfaces, arranged such that the fibres of the front rest surface (13) incline towards the rear edge (11) while the fibres of the rear rest surfaces (14, 15) incline towards the front edge (10), and the nozzle is free from other rest surfaces that might get in contact with a smooth, hard floor.
Description
- The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner nozzle, which nozzle has a front edge and a rear edge, an underside intended to face a floor or some other substructure to be vacuum-cleaned, and an upper part provided with a connection for connecting the nozzle to the vacuum-cleaner, which underside is provided with one front and two rear rest surfaces for supporting of the nozzle on the floor or similar, the front rest surface being positioned centrally along the front edge and the two rear rest surfaces being positioned separate from each other and symmetrically along the rear edge.
- A floor nozzle of the above mentioned type is previously known from e.g. DE-C2 31 00 164 (≈U.S. Pat. No. 4,458,378) and is intended to be easy to handle also when vacuum-cleaning relatively dense air permeable carpets and thereby to provide for a sufficient cleaning action. Since it is a pure carpet nozzle it is not suitable for vacuum-cleaning smooth, hard floors.
- For many years, most floor nozzles for all-round use have been provided with a brush rim that extends around the circumference of the nozzle and that is lowered in connection with the vacuum-cleaning of smooth floors and raised in connection with the vacuum-cleaning of carpets in which latter case the nozzle slides on a bottom plate that usually is provided with one lint pickup in front of and one behind the suction opening of the nozzle. Such lint pickups are for example described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,319,379 and consist of strips of plush or velveteen type material that nowadays are made of a plastic material having all the fibres thereof made at a slight inclination in the same direction. When such a strip is used as a lint pickup, it slides easily over a carpet when the relative movement is with the nap, but in the opposite directional movement the fibres stand up as rakes and collect any threads and the like that it runs across. The two lint pickup strips are therefore assembled with their fibres inclining towards each other, towards the suction opening of the nozzle. When the brush rim around the circumference of the nozzle is lowered, the lint pickups do not reach the floor but are inactive.
- Nozzles for all-round use can have rolling wheels or sliding strips or steel pins for sliding in order for the nozzles to be easier to push forward and pull back in connection with the vacuum-cleaning. It is a problem in connection with the use of wheels that hair from humans, dogs and other pets is wound up on the wheel shafts during vacuum-cleaning, finally to brake the rotation of the wheels completely such that, if not noticed in time, the wheel will slide on the floor and a part of the circumference of the wheel will be worn down and become planar. Nozzles with sliding strips of fibre material, such as a felt-like material, that extend in the normal direction of movement back and forth of the nozzle during vacuum-cleaning are known e.g. from EP-B1 0 865 406 and SE-C2 523 406. When the nozzle is pushed back and forth over e.g. carpet edgings, laths, etc., such sliding strips may however hitch on these and in time even be ripped off from the nozzle. SE-C2 523 406 hence suggests that the end surfaces of the sliding strips are cut off obliquely in order to decrease the risk of hitching.
- GB 400,618 A shows a nozzle with three pads and an outer flange that acts as rest surfaces and the nozzle. Three channels are formed between the pads and the outer flange, a middle channel being in fluid communication with a front and a rear channel, respectively, and containing a centrally positioned exhaust. The nozzle seems to be adapted for wall-to-wall fitted carpets or other soft substructures while hard floors might be scratched.
- DE 203 121 836 U1 discloses a nozzle with three pads in contact with the substructure, one or two rear pads and an oblong front pad along the entire length of the front edge, such that the air can be sucked through the short sides of the nozzle.
- DE 103 01 113 A1 discloses a nozzle with at least one lint pickup arranged before or after the suction opening. The lint pickup(s) is/are arranged to pivot in recesses such that they are folded down when they scrape up lint and are pivoted away when they part with the lint.
FIG. 1 shows a bottom plate for a nozzle with acentral lint pickup 4 at the front edge, and immediately behind it asuction opening 3 followed by asecond lint pickup 4′. In the shown embodiment, the rear portion of the nozzle is so large that even thesecond lint pickup 4′ is positioned in front of the middle of the nozzle. It seems that the air is sucked in only via one channel that mouths in the short sides of the nozzle. - One object of the present invention is to achieve a nozzle without any loose parts, which can be used as an all-round nozzle for carpets as well as smooth floors, and which can be produced at low cost and still give the desired cleaning effect in use.
- In the nozzle mentioned in the introduction, this objective is achieved by the rest surfaces according to the invention comprising lint pickups that project from the rest surfaces and by the nozzle being free from other rest surfaces that might get in contact with a smooth, hard floor. The front, centrally positioned rest surface and its lint pickup take up about a third of the length of the front edge, while the portions on the side thereof of the front edge form front inlet channels for dust loaded air to be sucked into the vacuum cleaner. Such a nozzle can be used as an all-round nozzle that is adequately easy to move around on carpets as well as on smooth, hard floors. It has no movable parts whatsoever and is cheap in production.
- Preferably, the lint pickups have inclined fibres arranged such that the fibres of the front rest surface incline towards the rear edge and the fibres of the rear rest surfaces incline towards the front edge.
- The lint removers can be directly mounted on the rest surfaces but suitably they are recessed pockets formed in the rest surfaces. In that way, adapting between the stiffness of the fibres and their mobility and length projecting from the rest surfaces, is facilitated. The lint pickups are moreover protected from being scraped off from the rest surfaces. It is suitable that the lint pickups project a distance in the magnitude of 1 to 2 mm from the rest surfaces.
- The two rear, separately positioned rest surfaces and their lint pickups preferably take up about one third each of the length of the rear edge, and the portion between them of the rear edge forms a centrally positioned rear inlet channel for dust loaded air to be sucked into the vacuum cleaner. The chosen positioning of the lint pickups with the central, front one at the apex and the two rear ones at the base corners of an equally sided triangle, and the friction between the inclined fibres of the lint pickups and the substructure to be vacuum-cleaned, will make the nozzle self-cleaning.
- The front inlet channels suitably extend somewhat over the front corners of the nozzle. Hereby, the vacuum-cleaning of corners between walls or between a wall and furniture, etc., is improved.
- The rest surfaces are advantageously designed such that a rest surface portion that is positioned between a lint pickup and an inlet channel that passes it, inclines away from the lint pickup in a direction towards the inlet channel. Hereby, the cleaning ability of the nozzle is improved.
- The nozzle preferably comprises a bottom plate in which the rest surfaces and the channels are formed, and a top cover connected to the bottom plate, which cover comprises the connection for connecting the nozzle to the vacuum-cleaner. The two front inlet channels each lead to a respective hole through the bottom plate, such that the dust loaded air is sucked into a room that is defined by the cover and the bottom plate. These holes are positioned between respective ends of the central, front rest surface and the respective adjoining rear rest surfaces and the bottom plate is designed to split the rear inlet channel in two, such that the two branches formed lead to a respective one of the holes. The two front channels are furthermore advantageously extended such that they extend also beyond their own holes and up to the other respective hole. Hereby, the sucked-in air flows are better balanced. If desired, it is also possible to increase the flow velocity the closer to the holes you get, by designing the channels such that their height is gradually decreased from the edges of the nozzle and up to the holes.
- Suitably, the bottom plate is, at least at one end of each pocket for the associated lint pickup, provided with a recess in order to facilitate introduction of a tool for loosening and exchanging of the lint pickup. Thereby, it is possible to change to a lint pickup with other properties, such as for needle-loom carpets or clinker floors that have sharp edges between the slabs.
- It is also suitable that the sides of the channels are softly rounded in order to minimize the flow resistance and to prevent building up of sucked-up material in unsuitably formed spots of the channels.
- The front edge is preferably slightly concave in the horizontal direction and the rear edge is slightly convex in the horizontal direction. This makes it easier for the dust to be sucked into the nozzle and at the front edge there will be less friction against e.g. a skirting-board and you do not risk that the nozzle presses the dust balls against the skirting-board. When pulling the nozzle back against a threshold, it will be easier for dust, gravel, etc., to be sucked in centrally at the rear edge and the friction against the threshold will naturally be lower.
- In the following, the invention will be described in greater detail with reference to the preferred embodiments and the enclosed drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is a view of an underside of a preferred embodiment of a bottom plate with a lint pickup, for a vacuum cleaner nozzle according to the invention. -
FIG. 2 is a view in perspective of the actual bottom plate inFIG. 1 , without the lint pickups. -
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view along line III-III inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 4 is a view in perspective of the entire vacuum cleaner nozzle. - The vacuum cleaner nozzle in the drawings has a
front edge 10, arear edge 11 and anunderside 12 that is shown inFIG. 1 and intended to face a not shown floor or some other substructure to be vacuum-cleaned, as well as an upper part in the form of acover 2 that is provided with aconnection 3, 6 to connect the nozzle with the vacuum cleaner and that is shown inFIG. 4 and described in greater detail in connection with the description of that figure. Theunderside 12 is provided with one front and two rear rest surfaces to support the nozzle on the floor or the like. Thefront rest surface 13 is positioned centrally along thefront edge 10 and the tworear rest surfaces rear edge 11. - According to the invention, the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15 comprise
lint pickups 13′, 14′, 15′ having inclined fibres that project from the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15, arranged such that the fibres of thefront rest surface 13 incline towards the rear edge while the fibres of the rear rest surfaces 14, 15 incline towards the front edge, and such that the nozzle is free from other rest surfaces that might get in contact with a smooth, hard floor. Such a nozzle can be used as an all-round nozzle that is adequately easy to move around on carpets as well as on smooth, hard floors. It has no moving parts whatsoever and it is cheap in production and still it gives the desired cleaning effect in use. - The
lint pickups 13′, 14′, 15′ can be mounted directly on the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15, but suitably they are recessed inpockets FIG. 2 . In that way, adapting between the stiffness of the fibres and their mobility and length projecting from the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15, is facilitated. Thelint pickups 13′, 14′, 15′ are moreover protected from being scraped off from the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15. It is suitable that thelint pickups 13′, 14′, 15′ project a distance in the magnitude of 1 to 2 mm from the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15. - The front, centrally positioned
rest surface 13 and itslint pickup 13′ preferably take up about a third of the length of thefront edge 10, while the portions on the side thereof of thefront edge 10 formfront inlet channels lint pickups 14′, 15′ similarly take up about one third each of the length of therear edge 11, and the portion between them of therear edge 11 forms a centrally positionedrear inlet channel 18 for dust loaded air to be sucked into the vacuum cleaner. The chosen positioning of the lint pickups with the central, front one 13′ at the apex and the tworear ones 14′, 15′ at the base corners of an equally sided triangle, and the friction between the inclined fibres of thelint pickups 13′, 14′, 15′ and the substructure to be vacuum-cleaned, will make the nozzle self-cleaning. - The
front inlet channels front corners rest surface portion 13″, 14″, 15″ that is positioned between alint pickup 13′, 14′, 15′ and aninlet channel lint pickup 13′, 14′, 15′ in a direction towards theinlet channel - The nozzle preferably comprises a bottom plate 1 in which the rest surfaces 13, 14, 15 and the
channels top cover 2 connected to the bottom plate, which cover comprises theconnection 3, 6 for connecting the nozzle to the vacuum-cleaner. Thecover 2 and theconnection 3, 6 is shown inFIG. 4 and is described in greater detail in connection with the description of that figure. The twofront inlet channels respective hole cover 2 and the bottom plate 1. Theseholes front rest surface 13 and the respective adjoining rear rest surfaces 14, 15 and the bottom plate 1 is designed to split therear inlet channel 18 in two, such that the twobranches holes front channels own hole other hole holes channels holes - As is best shown in the perspective view of
FIG. 2 , the bottom plate 1 is, suitably at least at one end of eachpocket lint pickup 13′, 14′, 15′, provided with arecess 23′, 24′, 25′ to facilitate introduction of a tool for loosening and exchanging thelint pickup 13′, 14′, 15′. Thereby, it is possible to change to alint pickup 13′, 14′, 15′ with other properties, such as for needle-loom carpets or clinker floors that have sharp edges between the slabs. - It is also suitable that the sides of the
channels - The
front edge 10 is preferably slightly concave in the horizontal direction and therear edge 11 is slightly convex in the horizontal direction. This makes it easier for the dust to be sucked into the nozzle and at thefront edge 10 there will be less friction against e.g. a skirting-board and you do not risk that the nozzle presses the dust balls against the skirting-board. When pulling the nozzle back against a threshold, it will be easier for dust, gravel, etc., to be sucked in centrally at therear edge 11 and the friction against the threshold will naturally be lower. - It is clear from
FIG. 2 that the bottom plate 1 has onefront 13 and two rear 14, 15 surfaces that are raised and that have onepocket rear pocket front pocket 23, there is arecess 23′, 24′, 25′ in order by a suitable tool to be able to access between the bottom of the pocket and the lint pickup in order if needed to sever off the latter that e.g. may be glued or fastened by snap action in the pocket. In order to allow for snap mounting, the lint pickup can be attached to a stiff, not shown, carrier. Between the rest surfaces 13, 14 and 15, theinlet channels suction holes rear channel 18 is shown to be split by a flow divider in twochannels front inlet channels front corners rest surface portion 13″, 14″, 15″ that is positioned between apocket inlet channel pocket inlet channel channels - It is clear from the cross-section of the bottom plate 1 shown in
FIG. 3 that thelint pickups 13′, 15′ attached in thepockets front rest surface 13 incline towards therear edge 11 of the nozzle while the fibres of therear rest surface 15 incline towards thefront edge 10 of the nozzle. Suitably, the projecting portion of thelint pickups 13′, 15′ has a length in the magnitude of 1 to 2 mm from the rest surfaces 13, 15. The material of the bottom plate 1 can be metal, or if desired, plastics. - The
upper part 2 of the nozzle, shown inFIG. 4 and shaped as a cover, is designed as is known per se and is provided with a connection for connecting the nozzle to the vacuum cleaner. The connection comprises a T-piece 3 with alateral pipe portion 4 and a tube shapedpole portion 5 that projects perpendicularly from the middle of the lateral portion. At its ends, thelateral pipe portion 4 is rotatably mounted in thecover 2, such that the tube shapedpole portion 5 projects from thecover 2 and can be freely rotated between an essentially horizontal position and an essentially vertical position. One end of an angular pipe 6 is rotatably mounted in the tube shapedpole portion 5. The other end of the angular pipe 6 is intended to receive a not shown vacuum cleaner pipe or the like, which connects the nozzle with a not shown vacuum cleaner hose. The two rotatable mountings are naturally made not to allow an amount of air through that could otherwise considerable impair the suction ability of the vacuum cleaner. The double rotatable mounting in the connection between the vacuum cleaner pipe and the nozzle gives a considerable freedom of movement that makes it easier for the nozzle to access narrow spots. The dust loaded air sucked into the nozzle passes through theinlet channels holes cover 2, from which it goes on to thelateral portion 4 and the tube shapedpole portion 5 of the T-piece 3 and leaves the nozzle through the angular pipe 6, in order to be sucked into the vacuum cleaner via the connected vacuum cleaner pipe and the subsequent hose. The T-piece 3 is preferably streamlined at least internally in the transition between thelateral pipe portion 4 and the tube shapedpole portion 5, such that each pipe branch has the shape of a pipe bend rather than a pipe elbow. Theupper part 2 is united with the bottom plate 1 in a suitable way, such as by gluing.
