Abstract

L'aspirateur (1) comprend un corps principal (2) comportant un boitier d'aspirateur (3) ; une tête d'aspiration (9) par laquelle de l'air extérieur peut être aspiré par l'aspirateur (1) ; un moteur d'aspiration logé dans le boitier d'aspirateur (3) ; et un manche de préhension (15) raccordé mécaniquement au boitier d'aspirateur (3). La tête d'aspiration (9) est montée mobile par rapport au boitier d'aspirateur (3) entre une position rétractée dans laquelle la tête d'aspiration (9) est rapprochée d'un bord avant du boitier d'aspirateur (3), et une position déployée dans laquelle la tête d'aspiration (9) est éloignée du bord avant du boitier d'aspirateur (3), l'aspirateur (1) étant configuré de telle sorte qu'un basculement vers l'arrière du manche de préhension (15) et du boitier d'aspirateur (3) entraîne un déplacement de la tête d'aspiration (9) vers la position déployée.The vacuum cleaner (1) comprises a main body (2) having a vacuum cleaner case (3); a suction head (9) through which outside air can be sucked by the vacuum cleaner (1); a suction motor housed in the vacuum cleaner housing (3); and a grip handle (15) mechanically connected to the vacuum cleaner housing (3). The suction head (9) is movably mounted relative to the vacuum cleaner housing (3) between a retracted position in which the suction head (9) is brought closer to a front edge of the vacuum cleaner housing (3) , and a deployed position in which the suction head (9) is remote from the front edge of the vacuum cleaner housing (3), the vacuum cleaner (1) being configured such that a rearward tilting of the handle grip (15) and the vacuum cleaner housing (3) causes a movement of the suction head (9) to the deployed position.
