Abstract

The invention relates to a high-pressure cleaning appliance with a motor-pump unit, comprising a pump head on which is positioned a piston subassembly, which carries a drive motor with the interposition of a planetary gearing, and has a plurality of pistons which can be moved back and forth in the longitudinal direction of the motor-pump unit and each penetrate into a pumping chamber of the pump head, and also comprising a swash-plate unit which interacts with the pistons, the planetary gearing having a sun gear which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the motor shaft of the drive motor and is coupled to a ring gear via planet gears rotatably mounted on a planet gear carrier, the planet gear carrier being connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the swash-plate unit. In order for it to be possible for the planetary gearing to be lubricated to good effect even when the motor-pump unit is oriented substantially vertically, it is proposed for the piston subassembly to have an oil sump into which penetrates an oil-delivery tube which is aligned coaxially with the motor shaft and is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the planet gear carrier, it being possible for oil to be fed to the planetary gearing from the oil sump via the oil-delivery tube.
