Suction device with a suction inlet
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mobile suction devices for construction sites or workshops face challenges in easy handling and disposal of dirt collection, as they often require the entire device to be moved to a disposal site, which is cumbersome, especially when they cannot be rolled.
Innovation Solution
A mobile suction device design where the dirt collection container can be easily removed and inserted into the suction device housing, featuring a container attachment that allows for stacking and easy access to the suction inlet, along with a filter system for hygienic disposal, and a container attachment that provides additional storage and operational functionality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the suction inlet is arranged on the upper side of the suction device housing, then easy access to the suction inlet is achieved, but stacking another container on the upper side is prevented
Solution Approach 1:
The suction device housing is divided into a basic housing and a cover that can be separated. The suction inlet is arranged on the cover, which can be detached from the basic housing. This segmentation allows the cover with the suction inlet to be accessed independently while the basic housing remains available for stacking containers.
2Ease of operation
If the entire suction device is moved to a disposal site, then dirt collection can be emptied, but handling becomes cumbersome especially when the device cannot be rolled
Solution Approach 1:
The dirt collection container is extracted as a separate removable component from the suction device housing. Users can remove the dirt collection container independently and transport it to disposal sites, avoiding the need to move the entire heavy suction device. This extraction principle significantly reduces the weight that needs to be transported for dirt disposal.
Solution Approach 2:
The suction device is segmented into separable components: the basic housing containing the suction unit and the removable dirt collection container. This segmentation enables independent handling of the lightweight dirt collection container for disposal purposes while the heavier basic housing remains stationary.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the suction inlet is arranged on the basic housing, then stacking is possible, but access to the suction inlet becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The suction device housing is divided into a basic housing and a cover that can be separated. The suction inlet is arranged on the cover, which can be detached from the basic housing. This segmentation allows the cover with the suction inlet to be accessed independently while the basic housing remains available for stacking containers.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This design simplifies the handling and disposal of dirt by allowing the lightweight dirt collection container to be taken to the disposal site separately, enhancing user convenience and hygiene, while maintaining the suction device's compactness and functionality.
Implementation Method 1
a suction unit (24) arranged in the suction device housing (21) for generating a suction flow
Implementation Method 2
a filter arrangement (26) for retaining dirt contained in the suction flow in the dirt collection space (25)
