Abstract
A connection arrangement between a vacuum cleaner and a suction tool includes a pivot element pivotably connected to the suction tool and a rotation element rotatably coupled to the pivot element. A suction wand, hose, handle or other vacuum port of the vacuum cleaner is removably connected to a connection end of the rotation element. Coupling ends of the pivot and rotation elements are inserted one in the other, and respectively have circumferential grooves that form a circumferential channel therebetween. Plural partial ring segment elements are received in the circumferential channel to form a connection ring that rotatably secures the pivot and rotation elements. The ring segment elements are inserted into or removed from the channel through a selectively coverable opening in the rotation element or the pivot element. A catch cooperates with a detent to hold a vertically pivoted, rotationally centered rest position of the components.
