Hitachi Electric uses CFRP to achieve lightweight and advanced vacuum cleaners

Recently, Hitachi Electric announced that it will launch a new “Boost Cyclone” on the new cyclone cleaner on July 23, 2011. By using carbon fiber reinforced resin (CFRP), the suction part of the vacuum cleaner can be easily lifted. According to Hitachi Electric, using a vacuum cleaner in the home, when changing the direction of the suction head, cleaning the steps and the unevenness, it often causes the suction head to lift up or lift the suction head. This time using the CFRP to achieve a light and strong suction head section.

This time, CFRP was used in the extension tube part that can be contracted up and down, the upper part of the housing of the suction head, and the rotating brush shaft part of the suction head. According to Hitachi Electric, the extension tube reduces the thickness from 2mm to 1.4mm compared to the original resin. The thickness of the upper part of the tip housing is reduced by about 30% compared with the original resin, and the rotating brush shaft of the tip also replaces the original aluminum alloy. By using CFRP, the weight of the extension tube portion and the tip portion was reduced from the original 940 g to about 820 g, which was reduced by about 13%.

Hitachi Electric will use CFRP extension tubes and suction heads as "Carbon Lite". The three types of cyclone vacuum cleaners released this time will be "CV-SU7000", "CV-SU5000" and "CV-SU3000", and at the same time The two high-end models "CV-PU300" and "CV-PU20" of the Karu Pack, a vacuum cleaner for bag-type vacuum cleaners, have adopted Carbon Lite.

In addition, according to Hitachi Electric, the top models of two high-end models and paper-bag vacuum cleaners for cyclone cleaners achieved a degassing rate of 99.999% when measured in accordance with IEC specification “60312-1”. . In addition, in the paper-bag vacuum cleaner, the power of the suction is improved by improving the fan and the motor, and the CV-PU 20 having a dust collection rate of 99% achieves the highest power of 650 W in the bag-type vacuum cleaner.

In terms of initial monthly production and estimated market prices, the Cyclone CV-SU7000 will have monthly production of 4,000 units and 80,000 yen per month, the CV-SU5000 will produce 5,000 units per month, about 70,000 yen, and the CV-SU3000 will have monthly production. 6000 sets, about 60,000 yen. In terms of paper-bag vacuum cleaners, CV-PU300 produces 5,000 units per month, about 60,000 yen, CV-PU20 produces 10,000 units per month, about 50,000 yen, and CV-PU10 produces 15,000 units per month and 40,000 days. Yuan around.

Hitachi plans to use this new model to increase the proportion of its vacuum cleaners, which actually sell for more than 30,000 yen, from the current 5% to about 10%. According to reports, the current vacuum cleaner market in Japan is calculated at 5.3 million to 5.4 million units per year, which is basically the same, but advanced vacuum cleaners account for 55% of the amount.
