Vacuum cleaner repair

Probably, it is already impossible to even imagine a house in which there would not be a vacuum cleaner. This device was created specifically to simplify the process of cleaning the floors. But what if your irreplaceable assistant suddenly broke down, how to repair vacuum cleaners? In this article we will try to answer all your questions.

How is the vacuum cleaner arranged?

Before you take on the repair of the vacuum cleaner Samsung, LG or any other company, you have to understand how it works:

• Absolutely every vacuum cleaner is equipped with an air-sucking device that sucks in air.
• And in front of this device is a filter, which is designed to purify the air.

Important! But here the water vacuum cleaners work on a slightly different algorithm. Quite often the filter for Samsung vacuum cleaners is manufactured by Nera. Air is cleaned during the arrival in the filter Hepa, after which it is sent to the engine, which performs the function of cooling.

To avoid overheating, the engine must be cooled. In the event that the cooling is carried out to the extent necessary, the vacuum cleaner, or to be more precise, the Samsung vacuum cleaner motor, can continuously function for 120 minutes. The way in which the motor of the vacuum cleaner works is also influenced by the filter.

Important! Most often, a vacuum cleaner is not required. It is enough just to either clean or replace the filter in order to restore the capacity of the unit and its suction capacity.

How does the vacuum cleaner motor work?

The fan of the tangential type artificially hides behind the filters for fine and coarse air purification. The air passes through the center, and then is thrown out to the periphery, from there it enters the room through the HEPA filter. It captures particles of a size of one micron or micrometer.

The blade is covered with a lid, in addition, as a rule, it is made in the form of an aluminum curved partition. It stands between two metal planes. Thus, closed channels are obtained. The engine itself is often enclosed in a plastic casing, usually white, in which the outlet path for flows is specially cut through.

How to properly disassemble the vacuum cleaner to start the repair?

Repairing the vacuum cleaner with your own hands starts with removing the case. Absolutely in each of the cases there are different ways:

1. Remove all kinds of filters that block access to the engine.
2. Disconnect the electronic motor.
3. The motor housing, which is made of plastic, is unscrewed from the frame.
4. After this, remove the motor from the housing, then remove the fan from it. As a rule, a nut, in this case has a left thread, so twist extremely carefully.
5. Behind the fan is a collector-cover, which, in fact, hides the electrical part.

After the completion of the correct disassembly, changing any broken interior to a new worker will not be difficult. The main thing - you must take into account the brand, as well as the size of the previous part. Absolutely always pay attention to the size and material of old bearings.

Important! The vacuum cleaner itself must be switched off from the outlet when disassembling.

Typical breakdowns of vacuum cleaners

Such parts of vacuum cleaners are most often susceptible to damage:

• bearings;
• engine windings;
• brushes;
• power wire;
• fuse.

With some problems, you can repair the vacuum cleaner yourself, with some - you need to contact the service center, and in some cases - completely replace the unit with a new one.

Brushes

Brushes themselves are fastened in mines.

Important! It is very useful for beginners to know that it is ordinary graphite, carbon, coal. That is, if there is such a need, then you can sharpen these details, customize them in a necessary way, so that they stand up as it should.

Device:

• If the area of ​​contact with the collector itself is not that large, there is nothing to worry about - in time the brushes will work.
• The tips of the brushes are slightly erased in a semicircle inside.
• Each brush is pressed with a special spring, through which electricity also passes, - this provides a long supply of products.

Carbon will function until it becomes worn to the very bottom.

Important! With all this, the collector itself must be clean. Wipe it with some substance if necessary, remove the oxide film before the appearance of copper shine.

Shaft with

bearings The shaft is mounted to the stator on 2 bearings. They are made in completely different sizes, so it was easier to disassemble the motor of the vacuum cleaner. The rear bearing is small, but the front one is large.

The shaft must be carefully knocked out of the stator by absolutely any suitable means. Bearings have anthers. Despite the fact that the vacuum cleaner forms a vacuum, various kinds of dirt also get there.

Important! If you need to repair the vacuum cleaner due to a malfunction of this particular part, carefully remove the anthers with a screwdriver, if necessary, lubricate the parts. For this purpose, for example, the composition of the company HADO, EP-2, Litol-24, and others. Lubricate the inside, put the dust cover in its place.

Vacuum cleaner for some reason does not turn on

Often there are situations when the vacuum cleaner refuses to turn on at all. Do you need to disassemble the device in this case?- Not always.

The reasons for this phenomenon can be as follows:

• It so happens that the vacuum cleaner does not want to turn on. It should be all right, but the device does not work when it is turned on. This problem is probably directly related to electrical power. The socket, the plug or the cord broke. You should carefully inspect all the elements of the electrical circuit. The most common problem is found near the plug.
• Due to the fact that the power cord of the vacuum cleaner is quite mobile, it is extremely vulnerable, and often enough deformed places are formed on it during operation.
• If the vacuum cleaner is functioning, but its speed is not regulated, this is also a problem. There is a similar situation in the case when the contact disappears, which is easily eliminated by replacing the triac triac or the resistor.

To change the engine or not?

Typically, the malfunction of vacuum cleaners is incredibly easy to detect, and almost always they can be eliminated.

An exception can be unless only a short circuit inside the motor winding - to eliminate this damage by winding winding is difficult for the simple reason that the case itself is not folding. In this case, you have to change the entire engine, which is also a good option, because the engine is about ⅓ of the cost of the vacuum cleaner. Therefore, it is better to buy a new engine than a new vacuum cleaner.

From this article, you learned what may be a malfunction and how you can make minor repairs to the vacuum cleaner yourself. If you do not have the skills to work with electrical equipment, it is better to assign this task to a qualified master.
