る。The dust collecting part (6) has a dust collecting part (14) inside the part corresponding to the head of the elephant, and extends the part corresponding to the nose of the elephant from the front end of the dust collecting part (14) to the front of the suction cylinder (15). Is formed. The lower surface of the suction cylinder (15) is inclined upward. A vertically elongated elongated suction port (16) is formed on the inclined bottom surface of the suction cylinder (15), and the outlet is provided at the outlet end of the suction cylinder (15) to the dust collection chamber (14). A synthetic rubber flap valve (17) is attached to cover the end openable and closable. (18) is a dust disposal opening formed in the bottom surface of the dust collection chamber (14), and (19) is a bottom cover that opens and closes the opening (18), and the bottom cover (19) is a base end. Is pivotally supported on one side of the periphery of the opening (18), and has hooking hooks (20) at its open ends and a pair of hooking protrusions (21) (21) at both ends. Then, the protrusions (21) (21) are fitted and positioned in the recesses (22) (22) formed in the peripheral edge of the opening (18), and the hooking part (20) for hooking the opening (18). 18) The bottom lid (19) completely closes the opening (18) by being hooked in the hooking recess (23) of the edge, and further the protrusions (21) (2).
If you hold 1) by hand and move it downward, the hook for hook (2
The bottom lid (19) is opened by disengaging the engagement between the hook (0) and the hooking recess (23). (24) is detachably mounted in the dust collecting chamber (14) diagonally so as to be located between the flap valve (17) and the dust disposal opening (18) and the intake opening (13). It is a filtered body. Incidentally, (25) is an exhaust hole.

好適である。When the vacuum cleaner is used, the charging plug is removed and the secondary battery (7) is used as a power source. By holding the handle (3) by hand and turning on the power switch (8), the fan motor (12) is turned on. It rotates at high speed, and the suction port (1
Dust is guided into the dust collection chamber (14) from 6), the dust is stored in the dust collection chamber (14) due to the filter plate (24), and the air passing through the filter plate (24) is blown by the fan (12a). ) Through the exhaust port (25) to the outside of the body. At this time, since the suction port (16) has a vertically long shape, it is preferable to clean the main body of the cleaner (1) while shaking it in the left-right direction because a large area can be cleaned.
ゴミ捨て時には底蓋（19）の突部（21）（21）を手で持
って引っ張ることにより底蓋（19）がゴミ捨て用開口
（18）から開き、収塵室（14）内に収納されたゴミは簡
単に捨てることができる。When throwing away dust, hold the protrusions (21) (21) of the bottom lid (19) by hand and pull to open the bottom lid (19) from the dust dumping opening (18) and store it in the dust collection chamber (14). The trash can be easily thrown away.
