As described above, the present invention includes a suction tool body and a small nozzle detachably mounted on the suction tool body, and the small nozzle includes a nozzle portion, a connecting portion, and a connecting portion. The nozzle part and the connecting part, and the connecting part and the connecting part are connected so that one of them can move up and down and the other can rotate, and the nozzle part cannot rotate with respect to the suction tool body. It is mounted in a fixed state and communicates with the inside of the suction tool body when it is mounted on the suction tool body.Since the mounting part of the small nozzle with respect to the suction tool body is in a non-rotatable fixed state, it is airtight. The airtightness can be maintained well even after being used for a long time, and the suction tool body can be rotated in the vertical and horizontal directions well with the brush nozzle attached, air tightness It attained to achieve both improved operability.
