Description

SaugeinrichtungSuction device
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Saugeinrichtung an einer Kehrmaschine gem. Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to a suction device according to a sweeper. Preamble of claim 1.
Eine derartige Saugeinrichtung ist bereits aus der Deutschen Offen!egungsschrift 24 46 728 bekannt. Deren Luftleitvorrichtung ist als rückwärtige, boden- parallele Verlängerung der Saugeinrichtung ausgebil¬ det, so daß die Luft zwischen dieser und der Boden¬ oberfläche angesaugt wird. Dabei sind hohe Strömungs¬ verluste in Kauf zu nehmen, was den Kehreffekt spürbar reduziert. Größere Bodenebenheiten führen außerdem zu erheblichen Druckschwankungen, welche sich auf das Kehrergebnis ebenfalls negativ auswirken. Je näher die Luftleiteinrichtung zur Bodenoberfläche angeordnet ist, desto größer ist die Gefahr ihrer Zerstörung beim Auffahren auf Hindernisse, je weiter sie von der ßodenoberfl che entfernt ist, desto ge¬ ringer ist die Kehrwirkung.Such a suction device is already known from German Offenlegungsschrift 24 46 728. Their air guiding device is designed as a rearward, parallel extension of the suction device so that the air is sucked in between the suction device and the surface of the floor. High flow losses have to be accepted, which noticeably reduces the sweeping effect. Larger bumps also lead to considerable pressure fluctuations, which also have a negative impact on the sweeping result. The closer the air guiding device is to the surface of the floor, the greater the risk of its destruction when hitting obstacles, the further it is from the surface of the floor, the less the sweeping effect.
Demgegenüber liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, die der Saugeinrichtung von der Rückseite zugeführte Luftströmung in ihre Wirkung bei geringem strömungstechnischen Aufwand zu verbes- In contrast, the present invention is based on the object of improving the effect of the air flow supplied to the suction device from the rear with little aerodynamic expenditure.
sern, ohne die Gebläse!e stung zu erhöhen.. without increasing the fan power. .
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß nach dem Kenn¬ zeichen von Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the characterizing part of patent claim 1.
Der Lösungsgedanke beruht auf der Erkenntnis, daß eine im Rahmen der Kehrwirkung ausreichende zusätz¬ liche Luftströmung unter Verzicht auf aufwendige strömungstechnische Einrichtungen schon allein da¬ durch erzielbar ist, daß ein gesonderter, düsenför ig gestalteter Strömungskanal für die zugeführte Luft vorgesehen ist, wobei diese Luftströmung schräg gegen die Bodenoberfl che gerichtet ist.The idea of the solution is based on the knowledge that an additional air flow which is sufficient in the context of the reciprocal effect can be achieved without the need for complex fluidic equipment simply by providing a separate, nozzle-shaped flow channel for the supplied air, this air flow is directed obliquely against the floor surface.
Bei weitgehender Unterdrückung der bodenparaüelen Luftströmung gelangt die durch den Unterdruck vor der Saugöffnung der Saugeinrichtung angesaugte Luft durch einen die Lüftdüse bildenden Ansaugtrichter mit hoher Strömungsgeschwindigkeit auf die zu kehren¬ de Bodenoberfläche und kommt dort unterstützend zum Saugluftstrom der Saugeinrichtung zur Wirkung. Das Überraschungsmoment dabei ist, daß das Ausmaß dieser Wirkung etwa vergleichbar ist mit bekannten Blasluft¬ düsen, die über einen Druckschlauch an einem Ventila¬ tor angeschlossen sind. Gerade auf diesen zusätz- liehen strömungstechnischen Aufwand kann "aber nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Vorschlag verzichtet werden. Die Erfindung beschreitet damit erstmals einen Weg, wonach dieser Aufwand beschränkt wird auf die Anord¬ nung einer gesonderten Luftdüse, die bei geringen Strömungsverlusten eine ausreichende, von Bodenun¬ ebenheiten unabhängige Kehrwirkung erzeugt.If the air flow, which is parallel to the floor, is largely suppressed, the air sucked in by the negative pressure in front of the suction opening of the suction device reaches the floor surface to be swept at a high flow rate through a suction funnel forming the release nozzle and is there to support the suction air flow of the suction device. The surprising factor here is that the extent of this effect is roughly comparable with known blown air nozzles, which are connected to a fan via a pressure hose. Especially on this additional loan flow technical effort may be omitted according to the inventive proposal "but. The invention thus for the first time treading a path, after which this effort is limited to the Anord¬ voltage of a separate air nozzle that generates a sufficient flatness of Bodenun¬ independent reciprocal action at low flow losses.
Um. die Anströ wirkung der Luft auf die Bodenober¬ fläche der räumlichen Ausdehnung der Saugöffnung der Saugeinrichtung anzupassen ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, daß die Luftdüse mit einer schlitzförmi¬ gen, sich quer zur Fahrtrichtung erstreckenden Aus¬ trittsöffnung ausgebildet ist. Die mit hoher Geschwin¬ digkeit ausströmende Luft wird auf der Bodenober¬ fläche ähnlich der Anströmung einer Prallplätte umge¬ lenkt. Der von der "Blaswirkung" erfaßte Schmutz wird auf diese Weise von der Bodenoberfläche abgelöst und der Saugöffnung zugeführt.Around. The inflow effect of the air on the floor surface to adapt to the spatial extent of the suction opening of the suction device is provided according to the invention in that the air nozzle is designed with a slot-shaped outlet opening which extends transversely to the direction of travel. The air flowing out at high speed is deflected on the floor surface in a manner similar to the flow against a baffle plate. In this way, the dirt caught by the "blowing effect" is detached from the floor surface and fed to the suction opening.
Der Ansaugtrichter besitzt zweckmäßig eine Rückwand, die mittels einer gummielastischen Dichtungsleiste zur Bodenoberfläche hin verl ngert ist. Diese Dich¬ tungsleiste ist vorteilhaft so zu bemessen, daß nur noch ein sehr kleiner Abstand, z.B. von 10mm bis zur Bodenoberfläche offenbleibt, derart, daß eine bodenparallele Zuluft weitgehend unterdrückt wird. Unebenheiten der Bodenoberfl che vermag die Dichtungs¬ leiste zu überwinden, indem sie sich elastisch ver¬ formt.The suction funnel expediently has a rear wall which is extended to the floor surface by means of a rubber-elastic sealing strip. This sealing strip is advantageously dimensioned such that only a very small distance remains, for example from 10 mm to the floor surface, in such a way that supply air parallel to the floor is largely suppressed. The sealing strip can overcome unevenness in the floor surface by being deformed elastically.
Die Wirkung sowohl der primären Saugluftstörung als auch der Luftströmung in der Luftdüse kann noch da¬ durch verbessert werden, daß die Saugeinrichtung^ beidseitig mittels dicht über der Bodenoberfläche endenden gummielastischen Dichtungsplatten abgeschlos¬ sen ist, welche sich nach rückv/ärts bis hinter die Luftdüse erstrecken.The effect of both the primary Saugluftstörung and the air flow in the air jet may still da¬ be improved in that the suction device is sen abgeschlos¬ ^ both sides by means closely over the bottom surface ending elastic joint plates which AERTS extend rückv / up behind the air nozzle .
Im Rahmen der Erfindung kann der Ansaugtrichter jede strömungstechnisch geeignete Querschnittsform auf¬ weisen und darüberhinaus mit Einrichtungen wie Luft¬ klappen zum Regulieren von Luftmenge bzw. Strömungsge- 'schwindigkeit versehen seinBe within the scope of the invention, the velocity stack can have any suitable cross-sectional shape of flow auf¬ and moreover with means such as flaps Luft¬ for regulating amount of air flow velocities or 'speed provided
