In such a conventional configuration, the planetary gear 6 is mounted on the shaft of one motor 5 to reduce the rotation of the motor 5 and to be protruded from the outer ring of the planetary gear 6. Part into a key groove provided on the inner peripheral surface of the rotating brush 2,
Because the rotating brush 2 is rotated, if the rotating brush is rotated in the direction opposite to the direction of travel of the suction device main body, the rotating brush gives a pulling force at the time of return, but is light when going forward. There was a problem that the operation force became heavy because of the hindrance.

A method of increasing the rotational force of the electric motor 5 in order to improve the operating force in only one direction, forward or backward, is conceivable. In this case, this can be achieved by increasing the size of the electric motor 5, but if the size is increased in the radial direction, the outer diameter of the rotating brush 2 is inevitably increased, and the outer shape of the suction tool main body 1 is also increased. Getting worse. On the other hand, when the rotation is increased by increasing the length of the electric motor 5, the electric motor 5 has only the fixed shaft 13;
When the other end of the electric motor 5 comes to the vicinity of the central portion, it becomes difficult to support the electric motor 5 itself. Therefore, imbalance is likely to occur, causing vibration and noise.

The operation of the above construction will be described. When the suction tool main body 18 and the cleaner main body 22 are energized, the electric motor 30 incorporated in the rotary brush 19 rotates, is decelerated by the speed reduction device 31, and the rotational torque is increased. The brush holder 28 rotates. By the rotation of the brush holder 28, dust attached to the carpet or the like is scraped up by the brush 29 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the brush holder 28, and the scraped-up dust is passed through the extension pipe 20 and the hose 26 to the cleaner body 22.

The diameter of the rotating brush 19 is larger than that of the conventional one by incorporating the electric motor 30, but the larger the diameter, the more the rotation speed becomes the same as that of the conventional one. The peripheral speed is increased, and the performance of scraping dust from the surface to be cleaned can be improved.

At this time, a negative pressure is applied to the space surrounded by the suction device main body 18 and the floor surface, and outside air flows in from the outer periphery of the suction device main body 18. It is sucked into. Since a negative pressure also acts on the vicinity of the ventilation hole 50 inside the rotary brush 19 through the ventilation hole 50 provided facing the connecting body 21, the outside air rotates through the hollow portion of the hollow shaft 42 through the suction hole 55.

Further, since the electric motors 30 and 30b are disposed symmetrically inside the brush holder 28, the electric motors 30 and 30a rotate the rotary brush 19 in the same direction as the forward traveling direction of the suction tool main body 18. Are rotated in the same direction at the same time, a rotational force twice as large as that of only one piece is obtained, so that operability and dust collection performance can be improved. (Because the operation force when moving the suction tool body 18 at the time of going forward is heavy)
In addition, if the operability and dust collection performance of one electric motor 30 are sufficient depending on the type of the surface to be cleaned, the electric motors 30 and 30a can be reduced in size. Accordingly, the diameter of the brush holder 28 can be reduced within a range that does not hinder the dust collection performance, so that the suction tool main body 18 can be reduced in size. Electric motor 3
With the downsizing of 0 and 30a, the entire driving mechanism such as the reduction gear 31 can be downsized, so that the total mass can be reduced.

In order to obtain a large rotational force by using the motor 30a alone, there is a method of increasing the length of the motor 30. In this case, since the motor 30 has a cantilever structure, the motor 30 is provided at the center of the brush holder 18. The closer it is, the more likely it is to become unbalanced, which may cause vibration and noise. However, by using two electric motors 30, a balanced and smooth rotation can be achieved.

When the motor 30 is made large in diameter in order to obtain a large rotating force by itself, the outer shape of the brush holder 28 becomes large, the suction tool main body 18 becomes large, and it becomes difficult to enter a gap between furniture and the like. Although the usability is deteriorated, for example, by sharing the torque between the two motors, each motor can be reduced in size, and it is possible to prevent the suction tool main body 18 from being enlarged.

The operability of the suction tool main body 18 can be improved both at the time of going and returning. At this time, the turning on and off of the electric motors 30 and 30b may be performed by a switching configuration of the circuit. However, the clutch mechanism may be built in the reduction gear transmissions 31 and 31a or provided separately.

Further, when the suction tool main body 18 moves forward, the rotating brush 19 is rotated in the direction opposite to the traveling direction by one electric motor 30, and when returning, the rotating brush 19 is rotated in the traveling direction by the opposite electric motor 30b. If this is done, the operability will be degraded, but the dust collection performance can be improved both in the forward and backward directions. At this time, the turning on and off of the electric motors 30 and 30b may be performed by a switching configuration of the circuit.

Further, the electric motor 30 at the time when the operation force becomes large
It is also possible to change the specifications of the carbon brush and the motor at the time of return with a light operating force. In other words, it is possible to reduce the cost by reducing the specification of the motor at the time of going to a strong motor and the motor at the time of returning to a weak motor, so that the optimal electric motor can be arranged and the life of the suction tool body 18 can be extended. You can do it.
Further, if the electric blowers 30 and 30b are of a brushless type, the switching configuration of the circuit can be easily formed, and the circuit can be made small and inexpensive.
