Silencer system for a vacuum motor in a suction cleaner
The present invention relates to a silencer system for a vacuum motor in a suction cleaner, which may be constructed using only one or two parts to form a housing for the vacuum motor including the silencer system. The system may have a main fan silencer system for the main fan and a second motor cooling silencer system for the motor cooling fan. The main fan is encapsulated in a housing surrounded by a substantially circular first wall part in such a way that a first cavity is formed between the housing and the first wall part. The system further includes two ducts, each duct connected at one end with a serpentine shaped exhaust air duct and at the other end with a second cavity connected with the first cavity by an opening in the first wall part.
1. A silencer system for a vacuum motor in a suction cleaner, comprising:
a vacuum motor having a main fan encapsulated in a housing surrounded by a substantially circular first wall part in such a way that a first cavity is formed between the housing and the first wall part, and,
two ducts, each duct connected at one end with a serpentine shaped exhaust air duct and at another end with a second cavity, said second cavity being connected with the first cavity by an opening in the first wall part,
wherein the vacuum motor further comprises a cooling air fan, said silencer system further comprising a cooling air inlet channel and a cooling air outlet channel, an inlet air chamber being connected with said cooling air inlet channel, and an outlet air chamber being connected with said cooling air outlet channel, and
wherein the outlet air chamber is adjacent to a cooling air outlet of the vacuum motor.
2. The silencer system according to claim 1 , wherein the inlet air chamber is adjacent to a cooling air intake on the vacuum motor.
3. The silencer system according to claim 1 , wherein an inlet opening of the cooling air inlet channel is placed in a lower position than an outlet opening of the cooling air outlet channel.
4. A silencer system for a vacuum motor in a suction cleaner, comprising:
a vacuum motor having a main fan encapsulated in a housing surrounded by a substantially circular first wall part in such a way that a first cavity is formed between the housing and the first wall part, and,
two ducts, each duct connected at one end with a serpentine shaped exhaust air duct and at another end with a second cavity, said second cavity being connected with the first cavity by an opening in the first wall part,
wherein the vacuum motor further comprises a cooling air fan, said silencer system further comprising a cooling air inlet channel and a cooling air outlet channel, an inlet air chamber being connected with said cooling air inlet channel, and an outlet air chamber being connected with said cooling air outlet channel, and
wherein the cooling air inlet channel is partly located in the inlet air chamber.
5. A silencer system for a vacuum motor in a suction cleaner, comprising:
