Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cleaner, and more particularly, to a vacuum cleaner, which draws in dirt or dust from a surface to be cleaned by using a suction force thus to carry out a cleaning operation.
  • a vacuum cleaner generates a suction force by using a suction motor installed in a cleaner body, and draws in dust or dirt along with air from a surface to be cleaned by using the suction force.
  • the drawn-in air laden with the dust or dirt is deprived of the dust or dirt while passing through a dust collecting unit, so that only the purified air is discharged to the outside of the cleaner body.
  • the conventional vacuum cleaner is configured, so that as disclosed in Korean patent publication No. 2006-13855 , a filter for filtering the air from which the dirt is separated is located in the dust collecting unit, or as Korean patent No. 623916 , a filter is covered with a grill unit, which supports the filter.
  • the conventional vacuum cleaner may present a problem in that if large dust or dirt is flowed into the dust collecting unit, the filter is clogged due to the large dust or dirt, thereby causing the suction motor to carry a large load thus to reduce the lifespan thereof, as well as causing a filtering efficiency for minute dust of the filter to deteriorate.
  • the conventional vacuum cleaner comes inconvenient to use.
  • the minute dust and the large dust or dirt are dumped together as because of structure, the dust collecting unit collects the minute dust along with the large dust or dirt.
  • the conventional vacuum cleaner is inconvenient in that as far as a user does not directly draws out the filter to the outside, she or he cannot accurately grasp a contamination level of the filter. In process of confirming the contamination level of the filter as described above, the user should pick up the contaminated filter with her or his fingers or by using separate tongs. Moreover, since the filter is in a state where it is inserted in a very narrow space, it is not only difficult to draw out the filter to the outside, but also to insert it again into the narrow space.
  • FR 2 844 174 A1 describes a complementary removable filter assembly.
  • an aspect of the present invention is to provide a vacuum cleaner capable of maintaining a dust collecting unit and a filter assembly, which collect large dirt or dust and minute dust, respectively, in different periods according to amounts of the dirt or dust collected therein, respectively, thereby improving a separating or collecting efficiency for minute dust.
  • Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a vacuum cleaner capable of easily grasping a contamination level of a filter with the naked eye.
  • the dust collecting unit and the filter assembly which collect large dirt or dust and minute dust, respectively, can be maintained in different periods according to amounts of the dirt or dust collected therein, respectively, thereby improving a separating or collecting efficiency for the minute dust.
  • the dust collecting unit may be mounted in an accommodating part horizontally projected in the front of the cleaner body and the filter assembly may be mounted in a seating space part formed in an lower side of the accommodating part, so that the filter assembly and the collecting unit are communicated with each other.
  • the filter assembly is disposed below the dust collecting unit to communicate therewith.
  • At least one of the casing and the cover may be formed of transparent material.
  • the cover may have a penetrated hole formed to communicate with the discharging hole, and the discharging hole and the penetrated hole may be communicated with in a sealed state with each other.
  • a cover at an upper side thereof may have a recessed groove part formed in the form of a loop along an outer side of the penetrated hole, and the dust collecting unit may have a coupling projection formed corresponding to the recessed groove part along an outer side of the discharging hole to couple with the recessed groove.
  • the cover has at least two gripping grooves recessed downward from an upper surface thereof, to enable the filter assembly to be gripped and drawn out from the cleaner body.
  • the top of the casing may be inclined, so that a dust accumulating space, which dust or dirt included in the air discharged from the discharging hole of the dust collecting unit is accumulated, is formed above the filter inserted in the casing.
  • the cover may include at least one fist supporting projection projected from a undersurface of the cover by at least one of the gripping grooves, and a second supporting projection projected from the undersurface of the cover, so that a lower end thereof is located on the same plane as that of a lower end of the fist supporting projection, and positioned in a spaced-apart relation with the fist supporting projection, and the first and the second supporting projections may support an upper surface of the filter, so that the filter is not freely moved in the casing due to a gap formed by the dust accumulating space.
  • the cleaner may further include a locking part to lock the cover to the casing.
  • the locking part may include at least one hook projected from one side of a undersurface of the cover adjacent to an outer circumference surface of the cover, at least one first hooking hole formed on one side of the top of the casing to accommodate and lock the hook therein, a locking lever hinged on the other side of the undersurface of the cover adjacent to the outer circumference surface of the cover and having a hanging prominence formed on the inside thereof, and at least one hanging projection formed on the other side of the top of the casing to engage with and lock the hanging prominence of the locking lever.
  • the filter may include a sponge filter, and a micro filter thinner that the sponge filter.
  • the filter filters the minute dust twice, so that the collecting efficiency for minute dust can be improved.
