Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning system with a base station for an automatically movable household appliance for cleaning and maintaining floor surfaces, the base station having a housing, the housing having an interface for coupling to the household appliance, the interface forming a suction channel between the base station and the household appliance, wherein the base station comprises a fan for generating a negative pressure for receiving dirt from the household appliance into the base station by means of an air flow via the suction channel, wherein the cleaning system has at least one separating and collecting module for separating dirt from the air flow, the separating and Collection module is designed to be coupled to the housing of the base station.
  • Base stations With the base stations known hitherto, it is not possible in the same cleaning system to choose between a base station with a separation system, for example a cyclone separator, or a separation system provided with a dust bag. Base stations are currently only available either with a cyclone separator or with a dust bag as the separator system.
  • a separation system for example a cyclone separator, or a separation system provided with a dust bag.
  • the invention therefore has the problem of specifying an improved base station.
  • a base station characterized in that the cleaning system at least one first separable separating and collecting module with a first separating system for separating dirt from the air flow and at least one second separable separating and collecting module with a second separating system for separating dirt from the air flow that is different from the first separating system the same base station can be equipped modularly with different separating systems using the connectable separating and collecting modules. This enables the customer to vary the separation technology for the separation system. Depending on the customer or region, either bagless or bag separation is preferred. With the modular choice between the separation and collection modules with different separation systems, the customer can select a suitable separation system specifically according to his needs.
  • the first separation system comprises a dust bag and the second separation system comprises a cyclone separator.
  • a separation system in the form of a dust bag included in the separation and collection module customers who pay particular attention to hygiene can choose a suitable separation system.
  • Customers who prefer to use a cyclone separator, for example due to pets in the household, in order not to have any costs for the dust bags, can also use the cleaning system with a suitably equipped separating and collecting module.
  • the second separating and collecting module has a collecting chamber, this collecting chamber having an emptying opening to which a vacuum cleaner can be coupled for emptying the collecting chamber.
  • the customer can easily remove the collection chamber in the separation and collection module via the emptying opening using a conventional floor vacuum cleaner suck off. In this way, the base station can be emptied without the customer coming into contact with the dirt.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the first separating and collecting module and the second separating and collecting module each have a supply air opening and an exhaust air opening, the supply air opening and the exhaust air opening of the two separating and collecting modules being positioned identically. With the supply and exhaust air openings in the same position in the separating and collecting modules, it is easily possible to direct the air flow generated by the base station blower through the respective separating and collecting module when the separating and collecting module is coupled to the housing of the base station and thus the dirt to be deposited via the respective separation system.
  • the supply air opening is positioned above the exhaust air opening when the separating and collecting modules are coupled to the housing of the base station.
  • the supply air opening and the exhaust air opening are positioned on different sides of the separating and collecting modules.
  • the housing of the base station has a feed opening and a discharge opening, the feed opening contacting the supply air opening when the separating and collecting modules are coupled to the housing of the base station and the discharge opening when the separating and collecting modules are coupled contacts the exhaust port of the base station.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the first separating and collecting module and the second separating and collecting module are constructed identically on the outside. With the externally identical structure of the separating and collecting modules, a particularly simple coupling with the same base station of the cleaning system is possible.
  • a further advantage of the embodiment of the invention is that the separating and collecting modules can be locked in the housing of the base station for coupling.
  • a secure coupling can be established by locking the separating and collecting modules in the housing of the base station.
  • the openings of the separation and collection modules can be arranged correctly and close to the openings at the base station.
  • the separation and collection modules can be inserted laterally into the housing of the base station. This has the advantage that positioning and sealing can be achieved by projecting the openings for suction and discharge. Furthermore, the installation space of the base station can be reduced since the separating and collecting module thus forms part of the outer wall of the housing of the base station.
  • a cleaning system is shown purely schematically in the figures with the reference number 1.
  • the representation according to Figure 1 shows a cleaning system 1 together with a household appliance 50 arranged thereon.
  • the cleaning system 1 comprises a base station 2, onto which the independently movable household appliance 50 can run.
  • the housing 3 of the base station 2 is shaped accordingly and offers a drive-on ramp 12. If the household appliance 50 moves onto this ramp 12, the household appliance 50 is coupled to the base station 2 via an interface 4 ( Fig. 2 ) which have a suction channel 5 ( Fig. 2 ) forms.
  • This interface 4 is in Figure 2 particularly easy to recognize. Dirt can be transferred from the household appliance 50 into the base station 2 via this interface 4.
  • the one at the For this purpose cleaning and maintenance of the floor surfaces of dirt picked up by the independently movable household appliance 50 is sucked out of the household appliance 50 via an air flow, which is generated by a blower, and conveyed into the base station 2.
  • the air flow is then freed of the dirt picked up in a separating and collecting module 6, 7 and the separated dirt is collected in the collecting module.
  • To empty the collecting module it is designed to be removable from the housing 3 of the base station 2. After the collection module has been emptied, it can be coupled again to the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • a suitable separation system can be selected and used by simply coupling the corresponding separation and collection module 6, 7 to the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • This is in Figure 3 indicated where two with the housing 3 of the base station 2 separable and collecting modules 6, 7 are shown. In this way, the same base station 2 can be provided with different separating systems in a modular manner via the separable and collecting modules 6, 7 which can be coupled.
  • the separation technology for the separation system can be varied customer-specifically.
  • the customer can select a suitable separating system according to his needs.
  • the first separation system is preferably designed as a dust bag arranged in the separation and collection module 6.
  • the second separation system is preferably designed as a cyclone separator and accommodated in the second separation and collection module 7.
  • This second separating and collecting module 7 advantageously has a collecting chamber in which the separated dirt is collected.
  • This collecting chamber advantageously has an emptying opening, to which a vacuum cleaner of a conventional type can be coupled for emptying the collecting chamber.
  • a connection opening 13 is provided in the housing 3 of the base station 2, via which a conventional vacuum cleaner can also be coupled for emptying the collection chamber.
  • FIG 4 is one of the externally identical separators and collecting modules 6, 7 according to Figure 3 shown in a single view.
  • the positioning of the supply air opening 8 and the exhaust air opening 9 of the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 can be seen very well from this individual view.
  • the supply air opening 8 and the exhaust air opening 9 are positioned identically in the case of the separating and collecting modules 6, 7, which are identical in structure.
  • the supply air opening 8 is located above the exhaust air opening 9. It can also be seen that the supply air opening 8 and the exhaust air opening 9 are positioned on different sides of the separating and collecting module 6, 7.
  • the supply air opening 8 is located on the front side
  • the exhaust air opening 9 for ejecting the air from the separating and collecting module 6, 7 is located on the side, but can also be arranged on the rear, below or above.
  • FIGS Figures 5-7 An embodiment is shown in which the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 can be inserted laterally into the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • Both the separating and collecting modules 6, 7, which can be used from above, according to the embodiment from FIGS Figures 1-3 as well as the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 which can be inserted at the side can be simply locked in the housing 3 when coupled to the base station 2, so that optimal positioning is possible.
  • the supply air openings 8 are contacted by the supply opening 10 in the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • the exhaust air openings 9 of the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 are contacted with a discharge opening 11 during the coupling in the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • the air flow for separating dirt that has been taken up can be passed very easily through the separating and collecting modules 6, 7.
  • the fan for generating the negative pressure is preferably located downstream of the discharge opening 11 in the housing 3 of the base station 2.
  • these have structural designs for locking and sealing.
  • the latching between the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 and the housing 3 of the base station 2 is preferably implemented via snap hooks on the separating and collecting modules 6, 7.
  • ring rubber seals are provided on at least one side, which enable the openings to be sealed airtight.
  • the separating and collecting modules 6, 7 have the same connection in terms of power, position and geometric shape by means of contacts to an electrical supply system of the base station 2.
