Le fonctionnement de l'aspirateur 2 va maintenant être décrit. Lorsque le moto-ventilateur 13 est alimenté électriquement, il établit une dépression notamment dans le dispositif de séparation de déchets 5 de telle sorte que de l'air et des déchets sont aspirés par le conduit d'aspiration 18. L'air chargé de déchets pénètre ensuite dans le récipient de stockage de déchets 7 via l'ouverture d'admission d'air 9 qui peut par exemple déboucher tangentiellement dans le récipient de stockage de déchets 7. L'air est ainsi mis en rotation et les déchets sont centrifugés vers l'extérieur et ces déchets sont collectés par le récipient de stockage de déchets 7.The operation of the
Le flux d'air s'écoule ensuite successivement à travers l'orifice de sortie d'air 11, la tubulure de liaison 16, et l'orifice d'entrée d'air 14 et l'orifice de refoulement d'air 15 du moteur d'aspiration 6. Puis, le flux d'air est diffusé radialement vers le filtre 26 par les ouvertures latérales 24, et s'écoule à travers la partie de filtration 27 avant de s'échapper hors du boîtier 3 au travers des ouvertures d'évacuation d'air 28.The air flow then flows successively through the
Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple.
