Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a holding plate for a vacuum cleaner bag, with a base plate on which a flap for closing an inflow opening is pivotally mounted, wherein on the opening side of the flap, a strip-shaped, flexible spring element is provided by means of which the flap is biased in the closed position ,
  • the WO 01/26526 discloses a filter bag for a vacuum cleaner in which a closure member is pivotally mounted for closing an inflow opening.
  • the closure member is biased by a spring element in the closed position, wherein the spring member is formed as a snap spring, so a spherical bulge on pointing spring strip.
  • a high closing force can be provided, the disadvantage being that the spring force increases sharply when the opening travel is large.
  • the counterforce of the spring remains small at a large opening angle of the closure element.
  • the DE 10 2007 004 329 discloses a retaining plate for a vacuum cleaner bag, in which an opening and closing mechanism is provided with a pivotable flap.
  • This flap is biased by a spring element in the closed position, wherein the spring element can be inserted on the opposite side to the pivot axis of the flap in a blind hole on the flap.
  • the flap returns a greater angle than the spring.
  • the spring is mounted very close to the axis of rotation in order to achieve a small bending angle can. This leads to the closing force being comparatively small when the flap is closed.
  • the insertion of the end of the spring in a blind hole can also reduce the bending angle of the spring, however, this leads to the fact that the blind hole forms an obstacle in the air flow and therefore negative effects on the suction power can be achieved.
  • a receptacle is formed on the flap, into which a bent middle section of the spring element can be inserted. This ensures that the spring element in a closed position of the flap can apply a high closing force, but when opening a middle curved section can be inserted into the receptacle, wherein the free flexibility of the central portion of the spring element causes only one in the open state lower spring force acts. The inclusion of the flap can thus compensate for a certain bending movement of the spring element.
  • the spring element is arranged in a closed position with the middle distance spaced from a bottom of the receptacle and when opening the flap of the spring element, the central portion is at least partially moved to the bottom of the receptacle.
  • the receptacle extends from the side of the pivot axis over more than half the length of the flap, so that the spring element can be sufficiently bent in a central region, in particular relative movement between the flap and spring element can be made possible. Due to the comparatively long design of the spring element, a high closing force is provided with the flap closed.
  • side walls which are each arranged adjacent to a longitudinal edge of the spring element.
  • the side walls can at least partially protruding on an inside of the flap.
  • a trough-shaped design of the receptacle is possible, in which case the inner contour of the flap facing the inflow opening is deformed more.
  • the spring element bears against a projection of the flap at an end opposite the pivot axis.
  • This projection can be arranged as a central strip within the receptacle to provide a defined contact point of the spring element end.
  • the spring element is preferably formed curved transversely to its longitudinal extent, in this respect has a bulge transverse to the longitudinal direction, so that the spring element acts as a snap spring, wherein the restoring forces initially drop after an initial bending.
  • the spring element is fixed adjacent to the pivot axis of the flap on the base plate. On the opposite side, the spring element is slidably mounted on the flap, so that set by the rigid arrangement of the spring element predictable forces when opening the flap.
  • a holding plate 1 is fixed to a filter material 2 of a vacuum cleaner bag and comprises a base plate 3, which is optionally also connected to a frame. Within the holding plate 3, a pivotable flap 4 is arranged for closing an inflow opening.
  • the flap 4 and the base plate 3 may be made of plastic and be connected to each other via a film hinge, which forms an axis of rotation 10.
  • a strip-shaped spring element 8 is provided in order to bias the flap 4 in the closed position at which the flap 4 covers the inflow opening and abuts against a stop on the base plate 3.
  • the spring element 8 is arranged in a receptacle 5 on the flap 4 and fixed with a first end 83 on the base plate 3.
  • the spring element 8 is supported on a projection 11 of the flap 4.
  • the projection 11 is formed as a web, which rests against the end portion 81.
  • a respective side wall 6 of the receptacle 5 is provided, so that the spring element 8 can move within the receptacle 5 and is thereby guided through the side walls 6.
  • the spring element 8 with a central portion 80 which preferably extends over more than half the length of the spring element 8, within the receptacle 5 bend. Because the spring element 8 is arranged in a closed position of the flap 4 in the receptacle 5, that the spring element 8 is arranged at a distance from a bottom 7 of the receptacle 5. If the flap 4 is now opened, the spring element 8 can bend in the receptacle 5 and move with the central portion 80 to the bottom 7.
  • the spring element 8 extends over more than half the length of the flap 4, starting from the pivot axis 10, preferably over more than 70% of the length of the flap 4.
  • the spring element 8 is shown in section, which is formed curved transversely to its longitudinal extent. This ensures that the most of a sheet metal spring element 8 has a high closing force, but act after an initial bending only lower spring forces, in particular due to the possibility that the spring element in a position 8 'adjacent to the bottom 7 of the recording 5 is pressed.
