Definitions

  • the invention relates to a high-pressure cleaning device with a housing which surrounds an electric motor pump unit which can be connected to an electrical voltage supply source by means of a connecting cable.
  • High-pressure cleaning devices of this type are known to the person skilled in the art in a variety of configurations.
  • a cleaning liquid preferably water
  • the high-pressure cleaning device comprises an electric motor which drives a high-pressure pump.
  • the electric motor and high-pressure pump are designed as a structural unit in the form of the motor pump unit, which can be connected to an electrical voltage supply source by means of an electrical connection cable.
  • the motor pump unit is arranged in the housing in a manner protected against splashing water, and the connecting cable is usually led through an opening in the housing, although care must be taken to ensure that the desired splash water protection also exists in the area of the opening.
  • rubber-elastic sealing elements are usually used, which ring-shaped surround the connecting cable in the area of the opening and seal the opening. This is associated with a not inconsiderable manufacturing and assembly effort.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a high-pressure cleaning device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it can be manufactured and assembled more cost-effectively.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in a high-pressure cleaning device of the generic type in that the housing has a through opening for the passage of the connecting cable, the through opening being covered by a cover held on the housing.
  • splash water protection can also be achieved in the area of the through opening in a cost-effective manner, without having to use sealing elements which surround the connecting cable in a ring in the area of the through opening. Rather, direct access of spray water to the through opening from the outside can be avoided by means of the cover by covering the through opening.
  • the connecting cable usually carries at its free end an electrical connecting element, for example a connector. It is particularly advantageous here if the connection element can be passed through the opening. This can further simplify the assembly of the high-pressure cleaning device, since a fully functional motor pump unit, to which an electrical connection cable with an electrical connection element is already connected, can be inserted into the housing, both the electrical connection element and the connection cable being passed through the through opening can be. The through opening can then be covered by the cover to ensure the necessary splash protection.
  • the preassembled motor pump unit including the connecting cable with the connecting element arranged at the free end can therefore be tested before installation and, if successful, it can be inserted unchanged into the housing. It is advantageous if the through opening is arranged on a rear wall of the housing.
  • the cover in combination with a housing wall having the through opening, forms a flow labyrinth for cooling air flowing into the housing.
  • the cover covers ventilation openings of the housing and comprises a cooling air access offset to the ventilation openings.
  • the through opening of the housing also serves as a ventilation opening through which cooling air can flow.
  • the cooling air opening of the cover is arranged offset to the through opening, so that on the one hand the required splash protection is ensured and on the other hand an adequate supply of cooling air for the motor pump unit can be ensured.
  • the cover comprises a cover plate which is arranged at a distance from the housing and covers the through opening. This enables the connection cable to be routed on the outside in an area adjoining the through opening between a wall of the housing and the cover plate. It is advantageous if the arrival end cable is led down from the area of the housing covered by the cover plate.
  • the cover forms a holder for the connecting cable.
  • the cover has at least one support hook for receiving the connection cable, so that the connection cable can be hung on the support hook in the wound state.
  • the cover has at least two support hooks around which the connecting cable can be wound. It is advantageous if the support hooks point in the opposite direction. It can be provided, for example, that the cover has an upper and a lower support hook, which are L-shaped and each comprise a first leg, which is oriented essentially perpendicular to the cover plate, and a second leg, the second leg of the point both support hooks in the opposite direction.
  • the cover is preferably designed as a one-piece plastic part.
  • the high-pressure cleaning device has a detergent tank for storing a detergent that can be added to the pressurized cleaning liquid. It is advantageous if the high-pressure cleaning device comprises a detergent dosing valve with which the user can dose the amount of detergent added. It is advantageous if the cover has a holding device for the detergent metering valve. The cover then not only takes on the function in the area of the passage opening of the to ensure splash water protection, but it also serves to hold the detergent dosing valve. As a result, the manufacturing and assembly costs of the high-pressure cleaning device can be reduced further.
  • the detergent added to the cleaning liquid can be filtered using a detergent filter.
  • a detergent filter This can reduce contamination, in particular of the high-pressure pump, and consequently the service life of the high-pressure cleaning device can be considerably improved.
  • the cover comprises a holding element for the cleaning agent filter. This enables a further reduction in the manufacturing and assembly costs of the high-pressure cleaning device and also has the advantage that the cleaning agent filter is easily accessible for a user, so that he can replace the cleaning agent filter with a few simple steps if necessary.
  • a cleaning agent line is connected to the cleaning agent filter and is led through the through opening.
  • the through opening thus not only allows a passage for the electrical connection cable, but also serves to pass the cleaning agent line at the same time. This enables a further design simplification of the construction of the high-pressure cleaning device.

  • the housing 12 accommodates a prefabricated, fully functional motor pump unit 30 with an electric motor 32 and a high pressure pump 34, which are known per se and are therefore only shown schematically in the drawing.
  • An electrical connection cable 36 is connected to the electric motor 32 in the usual manner and therefore not shown in the drawing, which has an electrical connection element in the form of a connection Plug 38 carries.
  • Such connectors 38 are known to those skilled in the art. To obtain a better overview, the connector 38 is therefore not shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the connecting cable 36 is passed through a through opening 42 of the housing 12, which is arranged in the region of the rear wall 18. It is completely covered by a cover 46 detachably held on the rear wall 18.

  • the cover 46 is then supported by the circumferential collar 64 on the rear wall 18 of the housing 12, the cover plate 48 being positioned approximately parallel to the rear wall 18 at a distance from it.
  • the cover plate 48 carries an elastically deformable holding arm 80, into which a cleaning agent filter 82 can be inserted, which is held by the cover 46 by means of the holding arm 80. This is particularly clear from Figure 1.
  • the cover plate 48 has a cooling air opening 86 which is arranged laterally offset with respect to the through opening 42 of the rear wall 18 and is of circular design and is guided through the first and second cleaning agent lines 88, 90.
