Abstract
A high-pressure washer has a housing and an actuator rotatably supported about an actuator rotation axis. A control element is arranged rotatably at the housing and is provided to control the actuator. The control element and the actuator are fixedly connected to each other for joint rotation by one or more universal joints.
Claims17
A high-pressure washer comprising:
- a housing;
- an actuator rotatably supported about an actuator rotation axis;
- a control element arranged rotatably at the housing and configured to control the actuator;
- the control element and the actuator fixedly connected to each other for joint rotation by one or more universal joints.
A method for assembly of a high-pressure washer, wherein the high-pressure washer comprises a housing, an actuator rotatably supported about an actuator rotation axis, a control element arranged rotatably at the housing and configured to control the actuator, and wherein the control element and the actuator are fixedly connected to each other for joint rotation by one or more universal joints;
- the method comprising:
- inserting a component group, comprised of the control element and the connecting member, in a mounting state of the component group through an opening in the housing;
- inserting the connecting member of the component group into the actuator while guiding the component group by the control element;
- transferring the component group from the mounting state into a state of use by pushing the control element against the connecting member supported at the actuator;
- and
- subsequently securing the control element at the housing of the high-pressure washer.
