Filter cleaning in a vacuum having a flap element

摘要

The invention relates to filter cleaning in a vacuum having a switchable flap element, the cleaning of the filter or of parts of the filter being carried out by supplying a secondary air flow to the interior of the filter to be cleaned, and air being able to flow through the filters separately from each other from the outside to the inside in the vacuum container in a sealed manner, and a flap element disposed in a chamber housing being pivotable, by means of the pivoting of which openings may be closed and released, the secondary air flow reaching the surface of the filter to be cleaned from the inside toward the outside in pulses, characterized in that the flap element comprises at least two partial flaps, the pivoting of which is actuated by a pivot drive, the respective partial flap optionally closes the outflow opening of the respective filter chamber in the direction of the intake opening of the suction turbine, the blow-out side of the suction turbine delivers the created overpressure air into an overpressure chamber in which a chamber housing is disposed, the at least one drive element to be suddenly actuated comprises openings to be opened and closed, upon the opening of which the overpressure air flows through the chamber housing optionally into an impulse channel which branches off at that location and introduces the air into one or into the other filter chamber for cleaning.

主权项

1. A vacuum cleaner with a filter cleaning and a switchable flap element, the filter comprising two filter halves, wherein the cleaning of the filter takes place by supplying a false-air flow to an interior of each filter half to be cleaned, and air flows through the two filter halves separately from each other from the outside to the inside in a vacuum cleaner receptacle in a sealed manner and a flap element disposed in a compartment housing is pivotable, by the pivoting of which outflow openings are closed and released, the false-air flow reaching a surface to be cleaned of the filter halves from the inside to the outside in a pulse-like manner, wherein the switchable flap element comprises two partial flaps connected to one another at a common pivot point, the pivoting of the switchable flap element being actuated by a pivot drive,
each one of the two partial flaps selectively closing off two outflow openings of a respective filter compartment of two filter compartments in the direction toward the intake opening of a suction turbine, a blow-out side of the suction turbine delivering created overpressure air into an overpressure chamber in which a compartment housing is disposed that has at least one opening to be opened and closed by a drive element that can be operated abruptly, upon opening of which the at least one opening the overpressure air flows through the compartment housing selectively into pulse channels branching off from the compartment housing, which passes the overpressure air into a respective one of the filter compartments for cleaning purposes, wherein the switchable flap element is a Y-flap element, and the compartment housing is disposed in the overpressure chamber approximately aligned with the center longitudinal axis of the filter, the interior of the compartment housing being connectable in an air-coupled manner to the overpressure chamber through the at least one opening and further comprising a lever disposed in an interior of the compartment housing that is connected to the Y-flap element at the pivot point and integral in rotation with the Y-flap element, the pivot actuation for the Y-flap element being effected by the lever.
