Definitions

  • the dust-separation means is provided with a dust-separation case, and dust-collection case.
  • the dust-separation case includes an airflow inlet through which air is drawn, separation chamber communicating with the airflow inlet, and airflow-passage opening positioned on the downstream side of the separation chamber in the airflow direction.
  • the separation chamber includes a cylindrical wall surface, and an air-suction cylinder is arranged at a central part of the separation chamber surrounded by the wall surface.
  • the air-suction cylinder includes a large number of vent holes.
  • the airflow-passage opening is opposed to the pleated filter, and communicates with the inside of the air-suction cylinder.
  • a dust outlet is formed at an upper end of the dust-separation case. The dust outlet communicates with the separation chamber.
  • the cleaner main body 2 is further provided with a sensor for detecting the pressure of air to be drawn into the motor-driven blower 6, and display device for notifying clogging.
  • the sensor detects that a state where the pressure of the air drawn into the motor-driven blower 6 is less than a predetermined value continues for a predetermined period of time, the display device is operated by regarding the state as dust-clogging.
  • the second vent chamber 23 is positioned under the first vent chamber 22.
  • the first vent chamber 22 and second vent chamber 23 are separated from each other by a partition wall 24 belonging to the case main body 12.
  • the separation chamber 15, first vent chamber 22, and second vent chamber 23 collaborate with each other to constitute a passage by which the airflow inlet 13 and airflow outlet 14 communicate with each other.
  • the separation chamber 15 is positioned between the airflow inlet 13 and airflow outlet 14.
  • the filter 31 is provided with a filter frame 31a made of synthetic resin, and filter member 31b.
  • the filter frame 31a has a hollow cylindrical shape similar to a circular cone as a desirable example in order to secure a sufficient filtration area.
  • a major diameter part of the filter frame 31a is formed at one end thereof in the axial direction.
  • a base part 31c is formed integral with the major diameter part of the filter frame 31a.
  • the base part 31c is formed into a hollow cylindrical shape sharing the same axis with the filter frame 31a.
  • the dust-collection case 71 can be attached to the dust-separation case 12 by the following procedure. First, the upper case 72 of the dust-collection case 71 is opposed to the case main body 12a from above, and the tip of the convex part 76 of the upper case 72, and the upper end of the groove 67a of the guide part 67 are aligned with each other.
  • the air flowing through the first vent chamber 22 is drawn into the separation chamber 15 from the inlet 20 opened in the first sidewall 16.
  • the mainstream of the air passing through the separation chamber 15, and flowing toward the dust outlet 19 passes through a part rather closer to the cover 18 than to the first sidewall 16 in a concentrated manner.
  • the distal end part of the filter frame 31a with the small diameter is adjacent to the cover 18, and hence it is possible to securely carry away the dust collected at the distal end part of the filter frame 31a with the small diameter to the inside of the dust-collection case 71 by utilizing the flow of the air.
