  • Patent number: 7815704
    Abstract: A device for detachably securing a dust filter bag in dust aspirating equipment, comprises a flange part of rigid material seated externally on the bag wall and having a passage opening aligned with an inlet opening in the bag wall, and an equipment specific adapter plate of rigid material, which on the one hand is able to be secured to the dust aspirating equipment and on the other hand is able to be detachably connected with the flange part by means of a plug and detent joint. The adapter plate has a through opening which in the connected state is flush with the passage opening in the flange part and together with same has a through opening constituting a flow opening with the same and an annular seal and in the connected state effective between the adapter plate and the flange part for sealing off the through opening from the outside.

  • Patent number: 6136056
    Abstract: A connection member for a filter bag for vacuum cleaning equipment. The member has a base with two superposed base layers of stiff material which together define a first passage opening. A slide element, located between the two layers of the base, has a second passage opening therein which in an initial position is aligned with the first passage opening. By pulling on a handle portion of the slide element, the first passage opening is closed by a closure element that is connected to the slide element. The closure element, in the initial position, is in the form of a strand of incompletely cured plastic material. Upon application of a tensile force, the strand is adapted to plastically deform. The plastic material furthermore adheres on the one side to the slide element and on an opposed side to the base. Upon movement of the slide element into the closed position, the material is adapted to stretch in the longitudinal direction and to be drawn out as a diaphragm closing the first passage opening.
