Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Abscheiden von Staub aus staubbeladener Luft, insbesondere zur Verwendung in einem Staubsauger, in Form eines Zyklon-Abscheiders, bei dem die Luft einem wenigstens annähernd rotationssymmetrischen Behälter (11) über einen tangential angeordneten Einlass (12) zugeführt wird und nach dem Durchströmen einer Staubsammelkammer (14) über einen axial angeordneten Auslass abgeführt wird. Eine Vorrichtung zum Abscheiden von Staub aus staubbeladener Luft, welche einerseits auf dem Prinzip des Zyklon-Abscheiders basiert und deshalb eine Verwirbelung der Staubpartikel im Staubsammelbehälter verursacht und bei welcher andererseits die Trenngrenze weit über der Partikelgröße von lungengängigem Feinstaub (weniger als 2 µm) liegt, besitzt einen Behälter (11), der derart ausgebildet ist, dass die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit des Luftstroms im Einströmbereich des Auslasses (3) geringer als im Bereich des Einlasses (12) ist.
