L'ensemble formant grille 40 est dispose au rive-au de ['orifice 24 de sortie de l'air du corps 20 du cyclone de maniere a empecher une circulation inverse des substances polluantes collectees a travers l 'orifice 24 de sortie de ['air. L'ensemble formant grille 40 inclut un corps de grille 41, une pluralite de petite trous 42 formes dans une circonference exterieure du corps de grille 41 pour former un passage en direction de l' orifice de sortie d'air 24, et une plaque 43 de forme conique, qui empeche une inversion de deplacement des substances polluantes et est formee sur l'extremite inferieure du corps de grille 41. Dans l'aspirateur general comportant le disposi tif de collecte de poussiere a cyclone agence comme decrit precedemment, l'air charge de substances polluantes est aspire par une force d' aspiration qui est produite au niveau de l' orifice d'aspiration 2 de l'aspirateur, pour penetrer dans le corps 20 du cyclone dans une direction tangentielle au moyen de la premiere canalisation de  The grid assembly 40 is arranged on the shore of the air outlet port 24 of the body of the cyclone so as to prevent reverse circulation of the polluting substances collected through the outlet port 24 of [ air. The grid assembly 40 includes a grid body 41, a plurality of small holes 42 formed in an outer circumference of the grid body 41 to form a passage towards the air outlet port 24, and a plate 43 of conical shape, which prevents an inversion of displacement of polluting substances and is formed on the lower end of the grid body 41. In the general vacuum cleaner comprising the device for collecting cyclone dust arranged as described above, the air charge of polluting substances is sucked in by a suction force which is produced at the suction port 2 of the vacuum cleaner, to penetrate into the body 20 of the cyclone in a tangential direction by means of the first channel of

Loreque le courant d'air atteint le fond du receptacle a poussiere 30, l ' air circule dans une direction inverse, ciest-a-dire qu'il remonte dans le corps 20 du cyclone. L'air traverse ensuite les petite trous 42 de l'ensemble formant grille 40, liorifice de sortie d'air 24 et la seconde canalisation de raccordement 22, puis est evacue dans le corps 1 de l'aspirateur (repere par une fleche representee par une ligne formee de tirets sur la figure 2). De telles substances polluantes, qui flottent  When the air current reaches the bottom of the dust receptacle 30, the air circulates in a reverse direction, that is to say it rises in the body 20 of the cyclone. The air then passes through the small holes 42 of the grid assembly 40, the air outlet port 24 and the second connection pipe 22, then is evacuated in the body 1 of the vacuum cleaner (marked with an arrow represented by a line formed by dashes in Figure 2).

Conformement a l'aspirateur general comportant le dispositif de collecte de poussiere a cyclone, etant donne que les substances polluantes de l'air charge de substances polluantes entra1nees dans lt orifice d' aspiration 2 vent filtrees par le dispositif de collecte de poussiere a cyclone dispose dans le tube de prolongement 3, la quantite de substances polluantes, qui traversent le filtre en papier 4 dans la chambre de collecte de pression 5, est reduite. Par consequent la duree de vie utile du papier filtre 4 est prolongee. Meme ainsi, le papier filtre 4 est un element consommable en ce que l'utilisateur doit payer pour remplacer les filtres en papier qui vent jetes apres  through the chamber containing the engine (not shown). In accordance with the general vacuum cleaner including the cyclone dust collection device, since the polluting substances in the air charged with polluting substances entrained in the suction port 2 wind filtered by the cyclone dust collecting device has in the extension tube 3, the quantity of polluting substances which pass through the paper filter 4 in the pressure collection chamber 5 is reduced. Consequently, the useful life of the filter paper 4 is extended. Even so, the filter paper 4 is a consumable item that the user has to pay to replace the paper filters that are thrown away after
