The action of an above-mentioned embodiment then, is described.
To shown in Figure 5, when cleaning, the tube connector section 26 of hose body 21 is connected to the main body suction inlet 19 of main body of dust collector 12 such as Fig. 1, extension tube 22 is connected to the hand operated section 27 of hose body 21, the tube connector 32 of floor cleaner brush 23 is connected to extension tube 22.
As a result, floor cleaner brush 23 is connected with the suction side of electric blower 18 via extension tube 22, hose body 21, main body suction inlet 19 and dust collecting part.
After becoming the state that to power by power supply unit, the user operates by the setting button 29 to the expectation of handle part 28, make electric blower 18 with the pattern starting of expectation via main body control section, and controlling organization 81 drives ion generator 85 and corona discharge by electrode 85a produces ion I.
In addition, driving by electric blower 18, negative pressure is had an effect to dust collecting part, main body suction inlet 19, hose body 21, extension tube 22 and floor cleaner brush 23 successively, and, the ion I that is produced by ion generator 85 is full of in the ion generating chamber 45, and its part is from tap 86 to housing 31(floor cleaner brush 23) the outside, be that extraneous gas is discharged.
The ion I that discharges will be attached to the dust charge neutrality of the outer surface of ground and housing 31 etc., and thus, these dust are difficult to because of the charged outer surface that is attached to ground and housing 31 etc.
In addition, the user loads floor cleaner brush 23 on swept surface and advances before and after making it, thus, sucks dust together with air from suction inlet 47, and, with the dust of air from suction port 48,48 air amounts and the ion I that is produced by ion generator 85.
Be inhaled into dust collecting part together with the dust of air intake via tube connector 32, extension tube 22, hose body 21, main body suction inlet 19 from floor cleaner brush 23.At this moment, the ion I by sucking is attached to the dust of the each several parts such as rotating brush 49, tube connector 32, extension tube 22, hose body 21 and main body suction inlet 19 by charge neutrality, and thus, fine dust (thin dirt) easily peels off.
Dust and the air separation of suction dust collecting part also is captured, and the air that separates with dust will become exhaust wind after electric blower 18 coolings being inhaled into electric blower 18, discharge to the outside of main body of dust collector 12.
In addition, in when cleaning, be that the situation of timber floor is inferior in the kind of swept surface for example, operate and make rotating brush 49 rotary actuations setting button 29 as required.
Particularly, when via controlling organization 81 motor 61 being driven, be connected to rotating brush 49 forwards rotation in suction chamber 41 of belt wheel 65 via synchronous belt 73, distolateral a connection of this belt wheel 65 and the rotating shaft 64 of motor 61.In addition, by the driving of motor 61, with another the distolateral fan that is connected 66 rotations of rotating shaft 64.
Rotating brush 49 is removed the dust on ground by each hairbrush 57a of each cleaning part 57.In addition, fan 66 produces negative pressure by rotation, from open communication 67 suction casing 31(floor cleaner brushes 23) outside air.
The air that sucks blows to the motor body 63 of motor 61(motor 61 via drive chamber's filter 75), with the motor body 63 of this motor 61(motor 61) cool off, and sent into ion generating chamber 45 via wind path section 68 by fan 66.
Therefore, by this air of sending into, be full of that ion I air in this ion generating chamber 45 in this ion generating chamber 45 are forced to and constantly from tap 86 to housing 31(floor cleaner brush 23) the outside send.
In addition, the part of the ion I in the ion generating chamber 45 43 is sent into and is full of in the control room 43 to the control room via communication air duct section 83, suppresses dust and is attached to controlling organization 81 and safety device 82 etc.
Then, pass control room filter 78 from open communication section 77 to suction chamber 41 send after, the negative pressure that generates by the driving by electric blower 18 flows at suction chamber 41 interior tube connectors 32 along longitudinally to central portion.
At this moment, ion I will be attached to the dust charge neutrality of inwall and the rotating brush 49 of suction chamber 41, easily will be attached to the inwall of these suction chambers 41 and the dust of rotating brush 49 and peel off.
In addition, the part of ion I with the extraneous gas of air in suction port 48,48 is drawn into suction chamber 41, rotation along with rotating brush 49, in suction chamber 41 from the rear of rotating brush 49 via above and the place ahead transported to the rear, bottom, to be attached to the dust charge neutrality of suction chamber 41 and rotating brush 49 and easily peel off from inwall and the rotating brush 49 of suction chamber 41, then flow to tube connector 32.
When cleaning finishes, operate and via main body control section electric blower 18 is stopped setting button 29, and via controlling organization 81 ion generator 85 is stopped.In addition, in the situation that motor 61(rotating brush 49 and fan 66) drive, controlling organization 81 also makes motor 61(rotating brush 49 and fan 66) stop.
According to an embodiment described above, by making the motor 61 of rotating brush 49 rotations of being located at floor cleaner brush 23, be used in fan 66 rotations that ion I that ion generator 85 is produced sends, thus, need to not be used for making in housing 31 interior other configurations the motor etc. of fan 66 rotations, so can not make floor cleaner brush 23(housing 31) maximize, and the ion I that produces can be sent reliably.
Particularly, when making rotating brush 49 rotary actuation by motor 61, owing to the hairbrush 57a of each each cleaning part 57 of cleaning part 57() easily producing static on ground and cleaning part 57 with the friction on ground, so by with ion I from ion generating chamber 45 to housing 31(floor cleaner brush 23) the outside send, can effectively neutralize because the static that the rotary actuation of rotating brush 49 produces by ion I, this ion I produced from ion generator 85 in the time that is made these rotating brush 49 rotary actuations by motor 61.
And the air that utilizes the rotation owing to fan 66 to suck comes the motor body 63 of cool motors 61(motor 61), thereby can suppress reliably with simple formation the Efficiency Decreasing that heating was caused of motor 61.
Particularly, the rotating brush 49 that is used for electric dust collector 11 is driven with common about 5000 rev/mins High Rotation Speed by motor 61, therefore, make fan 66 rotations by the rotation that utilizes this motor 61, can guarantee fully to send ion I and the air-flow of cool motors 61.
In addition, utilize the air of sending into to ion generating chamber 45 owing to the rotation of fan 66, the part of the ion I that will be produced by ion generator 85 is sent into the dust charge neutrality to the inside (being in the present embodiment control room 43) of housing 31, thus, even such as by the negative pressure that produced by the driving of electric blower 18 etc. and dust (fine dirt) is inhaled in the situation of control room 43 interior grades from the narrower gap of housing 31 etc., also can suppress controlling organization 81 and the adhering to of safety device 82 etc. of dust (fine dirt) in this control room 43.
And, by open communication section 77 control room 43 and suction chamber 41 is communicated with, thus, the ion I that sends into control room 43 41 can be sent reliably from open communication section 77 to suction chamber.
And, by this open communication section 77 being configured in a side that forms position opposite with the transfer chamber 44 of suction chamber 41, thereby when the ion I suction chamber 41 in is inhaled past tube connector 32 by the negative pressure that is produced by the driving of electric blower 18, this ion I is played a role with comparing in wider scope with rotating brush 49 along suction chamber 41.
In addition, in an above-mentioned embodiment, also can constitute: the various wind paths that will be communicated to drive chamber 42 are formed in the housing 31, thereby by fan 66 ion I are sent desired site to the housing 31.
