Abstract

The invention relates to a holding plate (1) for a vacuum cleaner bag with a base plate (2) with an opening (3), a locking element (4) arranged on the base plate with a horizontal swing to close the opening, and a spring element (6) arranged in such a way that the bending angle (B) of the spring element with a horizontal swing of the locking element in the opening direction brings the locking element out of the first position, in which the opening (3) is sealed, into the second position, in which the opening is open, in a previously determined swing angle range that is smaller than the corresponding opening angle (x) of the locking element (4), in such a way that the locking element can be brought from the second position into the first position by the restoring force of the spring element in the direction opposite to the opening direction, and the spring element is located behind the locking element in the opening direction.

Abstract

The invention relates to a neck (10) for a vacuum cleaner comprising a deflection device (1) and a connection device (11) for connecting the deflection device (1) to a connecting piece (20), which in turn connects a filter bag (13) to a suction pipe of the vacuum cleaner. The connection device (11) and the deflection device (1) are configured in such a way that the deflection device (1) is situated inside the filter bag (13) during the operation of the vacuum cleaner and that an air stream that enters the connection device (11) is deflected by the deflection device (1).
