Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner with remote control functionality.

Configuration of conventional example and its problems This type of conventional vacuum cleaner will be explained using drawings.

In Figure 1, 1 is a vacuum cleaner body (hereinafter referred to as the body) that has an electric blower and a dust collection chamber inside.
It consists of an upper main body member 1a and a lower main body member 1b. Reference numeral 2 denotes an opening of the dust collection chamber of the main body 1, and a fastening portion 3 that connects the upper main body member 1a and the lower main body member 1b is provided to protrude from the opening 3. Reference numeral 4 denotes a front lid that is provided in the opening 2 so as to be openable and closable via a rotating shaft 5, and the front lid 4 and the main body 1 are electrically connected to the side of the front lid 4 facing the rotating shaft 5. Terminal 6 for remote control to conduct
is provided. Further, when the front cover 4 is closed, a terminal receiving portion 7 is provided to protrude from the opening of the main body 1 facing the terminal 6.

However, with this configuration, when the front cover 4 is opened and closed, a load or impact may be applied to the front cover 4, the fastening portion 3, and the terminal receiving portion 7, causing damage, which has been a major problem.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, the present invention provides a vacuum cleaner that is resistant to loads and shocks.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the vacuum cleaner of the present invention has a vacuum cleaner main body which has an opening for a dust collection chamber at one end and is constructed by combining upper and lower main body members; It has a lid that opens and closes and is pivotally supported in a part of the opening, and a terminal for remote control that electrically connects the vacuum cleaner main body and the lid, and The terminal part is formed integrally with a fastening boss part that connects the upper and lower parts of the vacuum cleaner main body, so that the terminal part on the vacuum cleaner main body side and the fastening boss part are mutually reinforced to open and close the front cover. It becomes extremely strong against loads and shocks applied over time.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 2 to 4, the main body 8 has an electric blower built therein, and is composed of an upper main body member 8a and a lower main body member 8b. Reference numeral 10 denotes a dust collecting paper bag installed in the dust collecting chamber 11, the opening of which is pressed into contact with an intake port 13 provided in an opening/closing lid 12 for taking out the paper bag. The opening/closing lid 12 has a buckle 1
4 and a buckle spring 15 so that it can be opened and closed, and a part of the opening/closing lid is formed with a handle 16 for carrying the main body. The upper surface of the main body 8 has a storage chamber 19 that accommodates the gap suction port 17 and the shelf suction port 18, and the storage chamber is rotatably mounted around a bearing portion 20 provided on the main body above the storage chamber 19. It has a lid 22. 23 is an opening/closing knob provided on the front part of the storage chamber lid 22.

26 is a fixing boss provided on the joint surface 24 of the main body 8 with the opening/closing lid 12 and connects the upper main body member 8a and the lower main body member 8b; 27 is the fixing boss 2
6 is a terminal receiving part formed in a substantially L-shape at the corner of the main body 8 integrally with the opening/closing lid 12. When the opening/closing lid 12 is closed, it connects with the remote control terminal 28 provided on the opening/closing lid 12. and the main body 8 are electrically connected. 29 is a rotating shaft of the opening/closing lid 12, 30 is a bumper, and 31 is a fixing screw.

Further, the main body 8 can be divided into an upper main body member 8a and a lower main body member 8b with the bumper 30 as a boundary, and these are fixed with fixing screws 31, and a fixing boss 26 and a terminal formed in a substantially L-shape. The receiving portion 27 has an inclination such that the rotating shaft 29 side is lower, and is adapted to substantially join with the inner wall surface of the opening/closing lid 12.

The operation of the above configuration will be described. Dust-containing air is sucked in from the intake port 13 by the action of the electric blower 9, is filtered by the paper bag 10, and is discharged from the rear exhaust port. The opening/closing lid 12 and the main body 8 are electrically connected to each other through a remote control terminal 28 and a terminal receiving portion 27, and furthermore, an air intake port 13 and a hose (not shown) are electrically connected to each other, and a hose (not shown) provided on the hose is electrically connected to each other. The switch switches an electrical connector (not shown) provided on the main body 8 to turn the electric blower 9 on and off.

On the other hand, the fixing boss 26 is originally weak in strength because it protrudes from the joint surface of the main body 8 with the opening/closing lid 12.
By integrally forming the terminal receiving portion 27 and the terminal receiving portion 27 in a substantially L-shape, strength can be increased and impact resistance when opening/closing the lid 12 can be improved. Moreover, since it has an inclination, it serves as a guide when the opening/closing lid 12 is closed, and in the closed state, it is possible to prevent the opening/closing lid from shifting in the left-right direction. Furthermore, by making the joint surface corner portions where the dust collection bag is likely to get caught, protrude from the joint surface 24, it is possible to prevent the dust collection bag from getting caught. Furthermore, by making the fixing boss integral with the terminal receiving part, and by forming the other fixing boss without the terminal receiving part in an approximately L-shape of the same shape at the same position, the design is also cohesive. It also plays an important role in improving marketability.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the embodiments above, the vacuum cleaner of the present invention has a fixing boss and a remote control terminal receiving part integrally formed on the joint surface of the vacuum cleaner body and the opening/closing lid. By providing this, the strength can be increased due to the mutual reinforcing action of the fixing boss and the terminal receiving part, and it is possible to improve the impact resistance.
