Definitions

  • the invention relates to a suction device for cleaning purposes with one Dirt collecting container having a suction inlet, via a suction channel is in flow connection with a suction unit, and with a filter, which is arranged between the dirt collecting container and the suction unit is, wherein the filter has a frame on which a flat Filter element is held.
  • suction devices are known in various forms. With their help can for example, a floor surface can be suctioned off, the suction unit provides a suction flow, so that dirt through the suction inlet into the Dirt collecting container can be transferred. In the flow direction behind the dirt collecting container is the filter on which the Dirt separates while the air drawn in by the suction unit passes through can.
  • DE 21 06 058 A1 proposes the filter element to stretch over a rigid, basket-like support frame and by means of a temporary valve opening associated with the outside atmosphere To cause pressure fluctuations, so that the filter element against the Support frame strikes and adhering dust is knocked off.
  • Such Design has the disadvantage that in normal operation of the suction device Suction flow not only the filter element but also the basket-like one Support frame must pass. This requires an increased flow resistance and thus a reduced cleaning performance.
