  However, in the above conventional configuration, when taking out the dust bag filled with dust from the main body, open the dust collector lid and take out with the handle, but when the dust bag is full, Since there was no gap between the handle and the dust bag, it was difficult to remove.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide an easy-to-use vacuum cleaner in which a basket body can be easily detached from a dust collection chamber and a dust collection bag can be easily taken out from the basket body. To do.

  In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, an electric vacuum cleaner according to the present invention is equipped with an electric blower that generates suction air, a dust collection chamber having an opening, and a dust collection chamber that is detachably attached to collect dust. A basket portion having a basket portion in which a dust collection bag is set, a handle portion for lifting the basket portion, an openable and closable dust collection portion cover for covering the opening portion, and an opening for the dust collection portion cover to the dust collection chamber. The handle portion is configured to be slidably attached to the basket body and biased in the pulling direction, and operates the buckle when the dust bag is discarded. As a result, the dust collector lid is lifted by the urging force of the handle, making it easier to open the lid, and the handle moves upward, creating a space between the dust bag and the handle so that the basket can be easily It can be taken out.

  The electric vacuum cleaner of the present invention can provide an easy-to-use electric vacuum cleaner in which the basket body can be easily detached from the dust collection chamber and the dust collection bag can be easily taken out from the basket body.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an electric blower that generates suction air, a dust collection chamber having an opening, a basket portion that is detachably attached to the dust collection chamber and in which a dust collection bag for collecting dust is set, A basket body having a handle portion for lifting the basket portion; an openable / closable dust collecting portion cover for covering the opening portion; and a buckle for locking the dust collection portion cover to the opening portion of the dust collecting chamber. The part is configured to be slidably attached to the basket part and urged in the pulling direction. When the dust bag is taken out, the buckle is released, and the dust is collected by the urging force of the handle part constituting the basket body. The lid can be lifted and opened easily, and the handle can be lifted in the pulling direction from the sliding lower point, so that a space is created between the dust bag and the handle so that the basket can be easily taken out.

  In the second invention, when the handle portion constituting the basket body of the first invention closes the opening of the dust collecting chamber with the dust collecting portion lid, the handle portion slides in contact with the dust collecting portion lid, It is configured to be pushed down, and the basket body can be easily attached to the dust collecting chamber even when the opening of the dust collecting chamber is closed with the dust collecting portion lid.

  In addition to the first or second invention, the third invention has a biasing means for biasing the dust collector lid in the opening direction of the opening of the dust collecting chamber, and the dust collector lid is a buckle. It is configured to be fully open in the released state. By operating the buckle when removing the dust bag, the dust collector lid is fully opened by the handle portion biasing force and the dust collector lid biasing force, allowing the basket to be easily removed. Is.

  In the fourth invention, the urging means of the third invention is constituted by a torsion coil spring, and the urging means can be easily provided at low cost.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, when the dust collection cover of the third aspect is fully opened, the opening is completely exposed and the basket can be easily taken out.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

(Embodiment 1)
The vacuum cleaner in the 1st Embodiment of this invention is demonstrated using FIGS. 1-4. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the electric vacuum cleaner according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a side view of the main body of the electric vacuum cleaner.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a vacuum cleaner body, which includes an electric blower (not shown) and a dust collecting means (not shown), and a connection pipe 3 provided at one end of a hose 2 at the front of the vacuum cleaner body 1. Is provided with a suction port 4 to be detachably connected.

  The other end of the hose 2 is provided with a hand grip pipe 6 having a grip portion 5 that is gripped during cleaning. Reference numeral 7 denotes a telescopic or jointable suction pipe, whose downstream end is detachably connected to the hand grip pipe, and the other end is detachably connected to the floor suction tool 8.

  In FIG. 2, the cleaner body 1 has a dust collection chamber 9, and is provided with a dust collection portion cover 10 that covers the dust collection chamber 9 so as to be freely opened and closed.
