集尘器以及电动吸尘器Dust collectors and electric vacuum cleaners

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种可连接和可分离于电动吸尘器主体的集尘器，以及一种包括该集尘器的电动吸尘器。The invention relates to a dust collector which can be connected and detached from the main body of the electric vacuum cleaner, and an electric vacuum cleaner including the dust collector.

背景技术Background technique

传统上，广为人知的旋风式真空电动吸尘器如图10所示(请参阅日本专利JP2001-104223A，第38和45段，图2)。Conventionally, a well-known cyclone vacuum electric cleaner is shown in Fig. 10 (see Japanese Patent JP2001-104223A,paragraphs 38 and 45, Fig. 2).

该电动吸尘器包括一个上部开口的尘杯1，一个用于在该尘杯1中产生负压的电动鼓风机2，等等。在尘杯1的侧壁1A上设有吸入口3，该吸入口3通过吸入通道5与用于吸入灰尘的吸入单元4连通。The electric vacuum cleaner includes adust cup 1 with an upper opening, anelectric blower 2 for generating negative pressure in thedust cup 1, and so on. Asuction port 3 is provided on aside wall 1A of thedust cup 1 , and thesuction port 3 communicates with asuction unit 4 for sucking dust through asuction channel 5 .

由吸入单元4吸入的灰尘穿过吸入通道5和尘杯1的吸入口3被引入尘杯1。在尘杯1中产生旋流以便将灰尘与空气分开，并且随后只有空气从尘杯1的开口的上部吸入电动鼓风机2并排到外部。Dust sucked by thesuction unit 4 is introduced into thedust cup 1 through thesuction channel 5 and thesuction port 3 of thedust cup 1 . A swirl flow is generated in thedust cup 1 to separate the dust from the air, and then only the air is sucked into theelectric blower 2 from the upper part of the opening of thedust cup 1 and discharged to the outside.

根据该电动吸尘器，由于灰尘收集于尘杯1中，所以不需要纸包过滤器。According to this electric vacuum cleaner, since the dust is collected in thedust cup 1, the paper bag filter is unnecessary.

但是，在这样的电动吸尘器中，灰尘和空气仅仅是通过在尘杯1中产生的旋流来分离，所以收集在尘杯1中的灰尘几乎没有得到压缩，从而尘杯1中迅速集满灰尘，因此会产生尘杯1中收集的灰尘实际上非常少的问题。However, in such electric vacuum cleaners, the dust and air are separated only by the swirling flow generated in thedust cup 1, so the dust collected in thedust cup 1 is hardly compressed, so that thedust cup 1 is quickly filled with dust , so there will be a problem that the dust collected in thedust cup 1 is actually very little.

因此，提出一种电动吸尘器，其具有用于压缩在灰尘收集部位收集到的灰尘的压缩装置(请参考，日本专利申请2003-097017)。Therefore, there is proposed an electric vacuum cleaner having a compressing device for compressing the dust collected at the dust collecting portion (please refer to Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-097017).

但是，在该技术中，因为用于操作该压缩装置的球状突起设置在电动吸尘器主体的下部，远离于为了握持该电动吸尘器的主体而设置于主体上部的握管部，所以当用一只手握持该主体时，必须用另外一只手拨动球状突起才能操作该压缩控制装置，从而导致该压缩装置难于操作。However, in this technique, since the spherical protrusion for operating the compression device is provided at the lower part of the vacuum cleaner body, away from the grip pipe part provided at the upper part of the main body for gripping the main body of the vacuum cleaner, when using a When the main body is held by one hand, the other hand must be used to move the spherical protrusion to operate the compression control device, thus causing the compression device to be difficult to operate.

例如，联动机构70包括一连接操纵杆85的齿轮装置以及一与该齿轮装置连接的连杆装置。For example, thelinkage mechanism 70 includes a gear arrangement connected to thejoystick 85 and a link arrangement connected to the gear arrangement.

该连杆装置具有可向上和向下延伸的连杆104和104，其可拆卸地附着于压缩组件100的对侧。如图7所示，连杆104和104插入设置在集尘室55的顶板55A的相对两端中的孔55f和55f，使得连杆能够上下移动。The linkage arrangement has upwardly and downwardlyextendable links 104 and 104 that are removably attached to opposite sides of thecompression assembly 100 . As shown in FIG. 7, thelinks 104 and 104 are inserted into holes 55f and 55f provided in opposite ends of theceiling 55A of thedust collecting chamber 55 so that the links can move up and down.

齿轮装置包括设置在操纵杆85的腿86上的齿条72、与齿条72咬合的扇形齿轮73、设置在该齿轮73的轴74上的扇形齿轮75，以及如图8所示设置在连杆104和104上端用于与扇形齿轮75咬合的上下延伸的齿条组件105和105。The gear device comprises arack 72 arranged on theleg 86 of thejoystick 85, asector gear 73 engaged with therack 72, asector gear 75 arranged on theshaft 74 of thegear 73, and as shown in FIG. The upper ends of therods 104 and 104 are used for therack assemblies 105 and 105 extending up and down engaged with thesector gear 75 .

向下突出的轴87和87设置在操纵杆85的腿86和86的下部，轴87和87的上部形成有凸缘87F和87F。Downwardly protrudingshafts 87 and 87 are provided at the lower portion of thelegs 86 and 86 of thejoystick 85 , andflanges 87F and 87F are formed at the upper portion of theshafts 87 and 87 .

如图5所示，轴87和87上附有弹簧S1和S1，弹簧S1和S1的上部咬合凸缘87F和87F，弹簧S1和S1的下部咬合集尘室55的顶板55A的上表面。操纵杆85受到弹簧S1和S1弹压力的弹压，并且设置于操纵杆85的相对的两端的凸出物85A和85A邻接于罩盒71和71的下表面，且操纵杆85受到限制以至于操纵杆85不能在超出预设量的范围移动。As shown in FIG. 5 , springs S1 and S1 are attached to theshafts 87 and 87 , the upper parts of the springs S1 and S1 engage theflanges 87F and 87F, and the lower parts of the springs S1 and S1 engage the upper surface of thetop plate 55A of thedust collection chamber 55 . The operatinglever 85 is biased by springs S1 and S1 biasing forces, and theprotrusions 85A and 85A provided at opposite ends of the operatinglever 85 abut against the lower surfaces of thecasings 71 and 71, and the operatinglever 85 is restricted so that the operating Therod 85 cannot move beyond a preset amount.

每个扇形齿轮73可旋转地安装在每一个罩盒71上，每个扇形齿轮75的直径大于每个扇形齿轮73的直径。Eachsector gear 73 is rotatably mounted on eachcase 71 , and eachsector gear 75 has a diameter larger than that of eachsector gear 73 .

当操纵杆85克服弹簧S1和S1的弹力作用而向下移动时，齿轮73和73逆时针转动(见图8)，齿轮75和75同时与齿轮73和73一体进行逆时针转动。齿轮75和75的逆时针转动导致齿条106和106与连杆104和104一起向下移动。When thejoystick 85 moves downward against the elastic force of the springs S1 and S1, thegears 73 and 73 rotate counterclockwise (see FIG. 8 ), and thegears 75 and 75 rotate counterclockwise together with thegears 73 and 73 at the same time. Counterclockwise rotation ofgears 75 and 75causes racks 106 and 106 to move downward along withlinks 104 and 104 .

因为每个齿轮75的直径大于每个齿轮73的直径，所以连杆104和104向下移动的量大于操纵杆85向下移动的量。Because the diameter of eachgear 75 is larger than the diameter of eachgear 73 , thelinkages 104 and 104 move downward more than thejoystick 85 moves downward.

连杆104和104的下移导致压缩组件100也向下运动。The downward movement of thelinks 104 and 104 causes thecompression assembly 100 to also move downward.

这样，当操纵杆85向下移动时，压缩组件100通过联动机构70向下移动。Thus, when thelever 85 is moved down, thecompression assembly 100 is moved down by thelinkage mechanism 70 .

如图5所示，还设有一个用于打开和关闭底盖59的开关机构90，开关机构90包括一个设置在联动机构70附近的可上下移动的臂91，一个根据臂91的上下移动而绕着轴92旋转的连接组件93等等。As shown in Figure 5, aswitch mechanism 90 for opening and closing thebottom cover 59 is also provided. Theswitch mechanism 90 includes anarm 91 that is arranged near thelinkage mechanism 70 and can move up and down. Acoupling assembly 93 that rotates about anaxis 92 and so on.

如图4所示，臂91支撑在罩盒71内并可上下移动，并且臂91上部的操作部分91A通过罩盒71上设有的孔71B向上伸出。操作部分91A形成一个用于打开和关闭底盖59的操作部分。臂91被一个弹簧(未图示)向上弹压。As shown in FIG. 4 , thearm 91 is supported in thecase 71 to move up and down, and the operatingportion 91A on the upper part of thearm 91 protrudes upward through thehole 71B provided in thecase 71 . Theoperation portion 91A forms an operation portion for opening and closing thebottom cover 59 . Thearm 91 is biased upward by a spring (not shown).

如图5所示，连接组件93轴接于设置在侧壁55S上的轴92。如图5所示，钩94设置在连接组件93的下部，钩94咬合于设置在底盖59上的咬合部件(未图示)以使底盖59未被打开。As shown in FIG. 5 , theconnection assembly 93 is pivoted to theshaft 92 provided on the side wall 55S. As shown in FIG. 5 , the hook 94 is disposed on the lower part of theconnection assembly 93 , and the hook 94 engages with an engaging member (not shown) disposed on thebottom cover 59 so that thebottom cover 59 is not opened.

当按压臂91的操作部分91A以便克服弹簧的弹力而向下移动臂91时，该连接组件93顺时针转动，并且连接组件93的钩94松开底盖59的咬合部以便打开底盖59。When the operatingportion 91A of thearm 91 is pressed to move thearm 91 downward against the elastic force of the spring, thelink assembly 93 turns clockwise, and the hook 94 of thelink assembly 93 releases the snapping portion of thebottom cover 59 to open thebottom cover 59.

如图4所示，沿箭头P1的方向绕左侧所示的轴线J1转动可以打开底盖59。这样，在按压臂91的操作部分91A时，通过开关机构90来打开底盖59。As shown in FIG. 4 , thebottom cover 59 can be opened by turning in the direction of the arrow P1 about the axis J1 shown on the left. Thus, when theoperation portion 91A of thearm 91 is pressed, thebottom cover 59 is opened by the opening andclosing mechanism 90 .

同时，该联动机构70以及开关机构90被保护它们的罩盒71所覆盖(见图4)。At the same time, thelinkage mechanism 70 and theswitch mechanism 90 are covered by acover box 71 protecting them (see FIG. 4 ).

电动吸尘器的主体11设有可以操作在集尘器的主体53上设置的提手部分54的操作装置。例如，该操作装置具有一设置在盖40里的孔41，和插入设置在孔41中的按钮42。该按钮42被一个弹簧(未图示)向上弹压，且通常用于盖住孔41。Themain body 11 of the electric vacuum cleaner is provided with an operating device capable of operating ahandle portion 54 provided on themain body 53 of the dust collector. For example, the operating device has a hole 41 provided in thecover 40 , and abutton 42 inserted into the hole 41 . Thebutton 42 is biased upward by a spring (not shown) and normally serves to cover the hole 41 .

上下延伸的导向筒43设置在盖40的孔41之下，设置在按钮41的下表面的轴44可上下移动地插入导向筒43的导向孔43A中，以便按钮42可以上下移动。A guide cylinder 43 extending up and down is provided under the hole 41 of thecover 40, and a shaft 44 provided on the lower surface of the button 41 is inserted into the guide hole 43A of the guide cylinder 43 so that thebutton 42 can move up and down.

另外，凸缘45形成于按钮42的下表面，并且凸缘45邻接于此后描述的操纵杆85(见图2)。In addition, aflange 45 is formed on the lower surface of thebutton 42, and theflange 45 is adjoined to a lever 85 (see FIG. 2 ) described later.

当按钮42向下移动时，该操纵杆85也向下移动。When thebutton 42 is moved down, thejoystick 85 is also moved down.

Therefore, through the pleated filter unit P, thedust collector 50 Negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure chamber 57 .

负压通过集尘室55的过滤器F2、集尘室55的内部、以及灰尘分离装置60中的网过滤器F1，作用在灰尘分离装置60的空气通道62中，然后负压通过集尘器50的吸入口52，作用在集尘软管12、延伸管14和吸入单元15产生负压，使得通过吸入单元15吸入空气和灰尘。The negative pressure passes through the filter F2 of thedust collection chamber 55, the inside of thedust collection chamber 55, and the mesh filter F1 in thedust separation device 60, and acts in theair channel 62 of thedust separation device 60, and then the negative pressure passes through the dust collector Thesuction port 52 of 50 acts on thedust collection hose 12, theextension pipe 14 and thesuction unit 15 to generate negative pressure, so that air and dust are sucked in through thesuction unit 15.

通过延伸管14和集尘软管12，吸入的空气和灰尘被引入到集尘器50的吸入口52。吸入吸入口52的灰尘和空气被吸入到灰尘分离装置60的空气通道62。Through theextension pipe 14 and thedust collection hose 12 , the sucked air and dust are introduced into thesuction port 52 of thedust collector 50 . The dust and air sucked into thesuction port 52 are sucked into theair passage 62 of thedust separating device 60 .

吸入到空气通道62的一部分空气，通过灰尘分离装置60中的网状过滤器F1被吸入到集尘器50的负压室57中，进一步，通过集尘室50的后部开口51的褶状过滤单元P和连接空气通道G，进入到电动鼓风机23的吸入口24中。Part of the air sucked into theair passage 62 is sucked into the negative pressure chamber 57 of thedust collector 50 through the mesh filter F1 in thedust separation device 60 , and further, passes through the pleats of therear opening 51 of thedust collection chamber 50 . The filter unit P and the connecting air passage G enter into thesuction port 24 of theelectric blower 23 .

另一方面，因为灰尘的质量远大于空气的质量，所以吸入灰尘分离装置60的空气通道62中的灰尘直接通过空气通道62，被压缩组件100的导向壁部101引导，并被引入到集尘室55中。也就是说，通过灰尘分离装置60来从空气中分离出灰尘，分离出的灰尘收集在集尘室55中。On the other hand, because the quality of the dust is much greater than that of the air, the dust sucked into theair passage 62 of thedust separating device 60 directly passes through theair passage 62, is guided by theguide wall portion 101 of thecompression assembly 100, and is introduced into the dust collecting chamber.Room 55. That is, the dust is separated from the air by thedust separating device 60 , and the separated dust is collected in thedust collecting chamber 55 .

此外，直接进入空气通道62中的空气通过压缩组件100的导向壁部101引导，并被引入集尘室55中。引入集尘室55中的空气通过集尘室55的后壁55H上的过滤器F2，被吸入到集尘器50的负压室57中，进一步通过集尘器50的后部开口51上的褶状过滤单元P和连接空气通道G，被吸入电动鼓风机23的吸入口24中。In addition, the air directly entering theair passage 62 is guided by theguide wall portion 101 of thecompression assembly 100 and introduced into thedust collection chamber 55 . The air introduced into thedust collecting chamber 55 passes through the filter F2 on the rear wall 55H of thedust collecting chamber 55, is sucked in the negative pressure chamber 57 of thedust collector 50, and further passes through the filter F2 on therear opening 51 of thedust collecting chamber 50. The pleated filter unit P and the connecting air passage G are sucked into thesuction port 24 of theelectric blower 23 .

清洁工作结束时，按压设置在操作部分13A上的操作开关13B使电动鼓风机23停止。然后，按下设在主体11上的按钮42。当按钮42被按下时，操纵杆85克服弹簧S1和S1的弹力而被按下来。When the cleaning work is finished, theelectric blower 23 is stopped by pressing the operation switch 13B provided on theoperation portion 13A. Then, thebutton 42 provided on themain body 11 is pressed. When thebutton 42 is pressed, thejoystick 85 is pushed down against the elastic forces of the springs S1 and S1.

当操纵杆85被按下时，压缩组件100被联动机构70向下移动。When thelever 85 is depressed, thecompression assembly 100 is moved downward by thelinkage mechanism 70 .

当压缩组件100被向下按压时，压缩组件100的叶片110滑过过滤器F2的表面F2a，清除沾在过滤器表面F2a上的灰尘。另外，通过向下移动压缩组件100，存储在集尘室55中的灰尘被压缩。因此，能够在集尘室55中存储大量的灰尘。When thecompression assembly 100 is pressed down, theblades 110 of thecompression assembly 100 slide over the surface F2a of the filter F2 to remove dust adhering to the surface F2a of the filter. In addition, the dust stored in thedust chamber 55 is compressed by moving thecompression assembly 100 downward. Therefore, a large amount of dust can be stored in thedust collecting chamber 55 .

当从按钮上松手时，操纵杆85通过弹簧S1和S1的弹力恢复到初始位置，压缩组件100和按钮42恢复到如图2所示的初始位置，与操纵杆85相连接。When the hand is released from the button, thejoystick 85 returns to the initial position by the elastic force of the springs S1 and S1, and thecompression assembly 100 and thebutton 42 return to the initial position shown in FIG. 2 and are connected with thejoystick 85 .

接下来，倾倒存储在集尘室55中的灰尘的例子如下所述：Next, an example of dumping the dust stored in thedust collecting chamber 55 is as follows:

首先，打开盖40，从主体11中取出集尘器50。当如图4所示的操作部分91A被压下时，通过开关机构90使底盖59沿箭头P1的方向绕轴线J1转动打开。First, thecover 40 is opened, and thedust collector 50 is taken out from themain body 11 . When the operatingportion 91A is depressed as shown in FIG. 4 , thebottom cover 59 is rotated open about the axis J1 in the direction of the arrow P1 by theswitch mechanism 90 .

然后，当同时握住操纵杆85和提手部分54时，操纵杆85被向下压向提手部分54，通过向下按压操纵杆85，通过联动机构70该压缩组件100被压到足够排出灰尘的位置。因此，集尘室55中的灰尘被从集尘器50的底口排出，从而容易倾倒灰尘。Then, when holding thelever 85 and thehandle portion 54 at the same time, thelever 85 is pressed down toward thehandle portion 54, and by pressing thelever 85 downward, thecompression assembly 100 is compressed enough to expel location of dust. Therefore, the dust in thedust collecting chamber 55 is discharged from the bottom port of thedust collector 50, thereby easily dumping the dust.

进而，因为压缩组件100能够从连杆104和104拆下，所以可以从压缩组件100上清除灰尘和类似物。Furthermore, since thecompression assembly 100 can be detached from the connectingrods 104 and 104, dust and the like can be cleaned from thecompression assembly 100.

图9所示的是另一实施例中的集尘器150的一个部分。配置该集尘器150以通过联动机构70绕轴201转动压缩组件200到图中虚线所示位置。该过滤器F2为弧形，并且在转动压缩组件200时，叶片滑过过滤器F2的表面F2a且集尘室55中的灰尘通过压缩组件200排出。同时，在图9中，参考符号202，其表示的是一个开口。Figure 9 shows a portion of a dust collector 150 in another embodiment. The dust collector 150 is configured to rotate the compression assembly 200 around the shaft 201 to the position shown by the dotted line in the figure through thelinkage mechanism 70 . The filter F2 is arc-shaped, and when the compression assembly 200 is rotated, the blades slide over the surface F2a of the filter F2 and the dust in thedust collection chamber 55 is discharged through the compression assembly 200 . Meanwhile, in FIG. 9, reference numeral 202 represents an opening.
