Abstract

The disclosure relates to a dust suction device for a hand-held power tool, comprising a housing, a fan unit accommodated in the housing for generating an air volume flow, at least one suction opening for suctioning off drill cuttings from a borehole, and at least one suction intake opening for generating a negative pressure in an adhesion region between the dust suction device and a workpiece on the basis of the air volume flow.

Claims (27)

1. A dust extraction device for a hand-held power tool, comprising:

a housing;

a fan unit accommodated in the housing and configured to generate an air volume flow;

at least one extraction opening configured to extract drilling debris by suction from a drill hole in a workpiece; and

at least one aspiration opening configured to generate a negative pressure in an adhesion region between the dust extraction device and the workpiece using the air volume flow,

wherein

the dust extraction device is configured to be electrically connected to a battery cell,

the dust extraction device has a battery interface,

the battery interface is designed to connect the dust extraction device to a hand-held power tool battery pack,

the extraction opening is connected to the adhesion region such that there is a negative pressure present both in the region of the extraction opening and in the adhesion region while the drilling debris is being extracted from the drill hole by the suction, and

the negative pressure in the region of the extraction opening differs from the negative pressure in the adhesion region.

2. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the dust extraction device has a dust collection chamber that has a filter element.

3. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a negative pressure in the dust collection chamber is less than the negative pressure in the adhesion region.

4. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein, in the direction of flow of the generated air volume flow, the filter element is arranged in front of the adhesion region.

5. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein:

the dust extraction device has a protective unit configured to protect the fan unit; and

the protective unit is arranged, in the direction of flow of the generated air volume flow, between the adhesion region and the fan unit.

6. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the dust collection chamber is connected, at least partially separably, to the dust extraction device.

7. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the dust extraction device has a control unit that controls the dust extraction device by closed-loop or open-loop control in dependence on a charge state of a battery.

8. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the housing has a handle that extends substantially parallel to the at least one aspiration opening; and

the battery interface is arranged on the handle.

9. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the housing has at least two separably connected housing parts;

the first housing part has at least the dust collection chamber; and

the fan unit and the second housing part comprises at least the adhesion region.

10. The dust extraction device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the dust extraction device with the second housing part removed is configured as a hand-held vacuum cleaner.
