Vacuum cleaner nozzle
First Claim
1. Vacuum cleaner nozzle comprising:
- a nozzle body, said nozzle body having;
at least one edge,a bottom side,a nozzle, said nozzle having a nozzle bottom,a suction pipe connecting piece to connect a suction pipe to said nozzle body, anda bottom plate, said bottom plate closing off said nozzle bottom towards said bottom side, said bottom plate having at least one flow channel, said flow channel having a bottom directed and opening toward a floor to be cleaned, said flow channel further having a longitudinal axis and a longitudinal cross section, said flow channel further having a second cross section perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, said flow channel further open towards said bottom side, said flow channel leading into a common suction channel connected to said suction pipe connecting piece, said flow channel further having an end on said longitudinal axis away from said suction channel, wherein at least two of said flow channels are placed symmetrically in relation to said suction channel, said flow channels further being substantially parallel to said edge of said nozzle body, said second cross section of said flow channels further being parabolic in shape whereby said second cross-section increases toward said suction channel from said end, said longitudinal cross section of said flow channels being parabolic in shape, said longitudinal cross section extending substantially at a perpendicular to said bottom plate along said longitudinal axis of said flow channels whereby said longitudinal cross-section increases from said bottom of said flow channel towards the floor and from said end of said flow channel towards said suction channel.

Abstract
The vacuum cleaner nozzle of the invention is provided with a nozzle body equipped with a suction pipe connecting piece and with a bottom plate which closes off the nozzle body towards the bottom, whereby at least one flow channel which is open towards the bottom and lets out into a central suction channel connected to the pipe connecting piece is located in the bottom plate. The flow channel is here double-parabolic in profile, meaning that it is parabolic in its cross section as well as in its longitudinal section extending perpendicularly to the bottom plate in relation to the longitudinal axis of the flow channel. The cross-section increases in this case from the bottom of the flow channel in the direction of the floor and from the end of the flow channel away from the suction channel in the direction of said suction channel. Thanks to this configuration of the suction channel, even distribution of the suction capacity is achieved over the entire width of the vacuum cleaner nozzle.
