Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cleansing unit.
  • a cleansing unit comprising at least one upwardly extending face with a lowermost aperture, and suction means disposed within the casing, said suction means having a suction inlet disposed proximate said opening and being associated with dirt collection means to which dirt is delivered by the suction means.
  • the cleansing unit of the invention may be positioned, preferably fixed in position, on the floor of a kitchen or other room or area to be swept. Dirt or the like may be swept along the floor towards the opening in the cabinet and, when sufficiently close thereto, can be sucked into the unit upon activation of the suction means and collected in the dirt collection means. Suitable controls, e.g. a switch, may be provided on or in the vicinity of the unit for operating the suction means when desired to collect the swept-up dirt. The need to remove the dirt from the floor by means of a dustpan or the like is thus avoided.
  • the casing of the unit may be formed of any suitable material, for example wood or plywood.
  • the casing may be of the same colour and appearance as other units (e.g. cupboards) in the kitchen so as to blend with surrounding fitments and be unobtrusive.
  • the suction means is for preferance a material handling fan, most preferably a centrifugal fan.
  • the suction inlet may be a nozzle, e.g. of fish-tail configuration, which is provided at or in the vicinity of the opening in the casing.
  • Dirt collection means may be provided by a bag, preferably a cloth bag, to which dirt is passed from the suction means.
  • the illustrated cleansing unit includes a box like casing 1 sitting on the floor 2 of a room and having a front face 3, shown removed in the drawings for the purpose clarity.
  • An elongate slot 4 is provided at the bottom of face 3.
  • centrifugal fan 5 associated with a fish-tail configuration suction nozzle 6, the inlet of which locates at the slot 4 when the face 3 is in position.
  • a cloth dirt collection bag 7 communicates with the centrifugal fan 5 via a tube 8 on the end of which the bag 7 is removably mounted.
  • An access opening (not shown) is provided in the casing so that access may be gained for removing the bag 7 from tube 8 for emptying purposes. Suitable controls, not shown, are provided for operating the fan 4.
  • the invention provides a simple and effective solution for removing swept up dirt from the floor of a room.
