図１〜図４において、掃除機本体１０の下方に設けた電動送風機室１２内には、電動送風機１１が、長手方向である回転軸を掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されている。   1 to 4, in the electric blower chamber 12 provided below the cleaner body 10, the electric blower 11 has a rotation axis that is a longitudinal direction on a substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. It is arranged to match.

また、この電動送風機室１２の上方中央には、電源供給用のコード１４（図示せず）が収容されるコードリール１５が、掃除機本体１０に対し水平方向に備えられ、このコードリール１５の中心軸方向が、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されている。   A cord reel 15 that accommodates a power supply cord 14 (not shown) is provided in a horizontal direction with respect to the cleaner body 10 at the upper center of the electric blower chamber 12. The central axis direction is arranged so as to coincide with the substantially central line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10.

また、このコードリール１５の上方中央には、サイクロン塵埃分離部１６ａを有し塵埃を捕集する集塵部１６が、略円筒形状の長手方向である略円筒の中心軸を掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されている。   Further, in the upper center of the cord reel 15, a dust collecting portion 16 having a cyclone dust separating portion 16a for collecting dust is arranged with the substantially cylindrical central axis, which is the longitudinal direction of the substantially cylindrical shape, of the cleaner body 10. It arrange | positions so that it may correspond on the substantially center line 13 of a longitudinal direction.

掃除機本体１０上端には運搬用の取っ手部１７が設けられ、掃除機本体１０上部後方には、操作用でかつ、内部に吸気通路が形成されて延長管１８を兼ね備えた操作用の操作ハンドル１９が配設されている。   A handle 17 for transportation is provided at the upper end of the vacuum cleaner main body 10, and an operation handle for operation is provided at the rear of the upper portion of the vacuum cleaner main body 10 for operation and also has an extension pipe 18 formed therein. 19 is disposed.

掃除機本体１０の下方には上下、左右に首振り回動可能に取り付けられた吸込具２０を具備し、掃除機本体１０の背面にはホース２１を有し、ホース２１の他端は、操作ハンドル１９と連結されている。吸込具２０の吸込み口２２から吸引された塵埃は、吸気通路２３通り、集塵部１６へと流れる。   Below the vacuum cleaner body 10, there is provided a suction tool 20 attached so as to be swingable in the vertical and horizontal directions. A hose 21 is provided on the back of the vacuum cleaner body 10, and the other end of the hose 21 is operated. A handle 19 is connected. Dust sucked from the suction port 22 of the suction tool 20 flows through the intake passage 23 and to the dust collecting part 16.

また、図４において、延長管１８には、取付凹部２４が形成され、延長管１８を掃除機本体１０の接続開口２５に差し込んだ時、ハンドルレバー２６の係合突出部２７が、延長管１８に形成された取付凹部２４に係合されるロック機構となっている。このロック機構により係合突出部２７が上記取付凹部２４にロックされて、延長管１８を掃除機本体１０に保持される。   In FIG. 4, the extension pipe 18 is provided with a mounting recess 24, and when the extension pipe 18 is inserted into the connection opening 25 of the cleaner body 10, the engagement protrusion 27 of the handle lever 26 is connected to the extension pipe 18. This is a locking mechanism that is engaged with the mounting recess 24 formed in the. With this locking mechanism, the engagement protrusion 27 is locked to the mounting recess 24, and the extension pipe 18 is held in the cleaner body 10.

また、ハンドルレバー２６のロックの解除は、掃除機本体１０の上面に設けた解除レバー２８を押すことにより行われる構成となっている。
上記構成より、掃除機本体１０を構成している重量物である、電動送風機１１、コードリール１５及び、集塵部１６が、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されている為、重心バランスがよくなり掃除機本体１０のスタンド状態での安定性が向上し転倒しにくくなる。 In addition, the handle lever 26 is unlocked by pressing a release lever 28 provided on the upper surface of the cleaner body 10.
From the above configuration, the electric blower 11, the cord reel 15, and the dust collecting part 16, which are heavy objects constituting the cleaner body 10, are aligned with the substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. Therefore, the balance of the center of gravity is improved, the stability of the vacuum cleaner body 10 in the stand state is improved, and it is difficult to fall down.

また、図１、図４に示すように、延長管１８を兼ね備えた操作ハンドル１９の端部に設けた把手部２９も、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されていることから、掃除機本体１０を操作する際、重心が片寄らず、使用者の手首にかかる負担を軽減させ使用性を高めることが可能となる。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the handle portion 29 provided at the end of the operation handle 19 that also has the extension pipe 18 is aligned with the substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. Since it is arranged, when operating the cleaner body 10, the center of gravity does not shift, and the burden on the user's wrist can be reduced and the usability can be improved.

また、図１、図４に示すように、掃除機本体１０上端に形成された運搬用の取っ手部１７のグリップ部３０も、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置されていることから、掃除機本体１０を持ち上げて運ぶ際、重心が片寄らず、使用者の
手首にかかる負担を軽減させ使用性を高めることが可能となる。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the grip portion 30 of the carrying handle portion 17 formed at the upper end of the cleaner body 10 also matches the substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. Therefore, when the vacuum cleaner main body 10 is lifted and carried, the center of gravity is not offset, and the burden on the user's wrist can be reduced and the usability can be improved.

また、図３、図４に示すように、掃除機本体１０を立てた状態において、吸込具２０の中央部を、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上に配置させたことにより、掃除機本体を立てた状態における重心バランスがよく、掃除機本体１０の起立状態の安定性が向上するものである。   Also, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, in the state where the cleaner body 10 is erected, the central portion of the suction tool 20 is disposed on the substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. The balance of the center of gravity in the state where the cleaner body is set up is good, and the stability of the standing state of the cleaner body 10 is improved.

さらに、吸込具の掃除機本体に対して回動する回転軸には、掃除機本体１０を傾動させて動作させる時以外は、回動を規制する係止部（図示せず）が設けられ、掃除機本体１０を運搬する際に持ち上げた際に、係止部が作用し、吸込具が下向きに回動しない様にしてあるので、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上である掃除機本体１０の重心全体が作用する略鉛直方向と、吸込具２０の中央部を通る重心の方向が略同一線上で合致するため、その結果、使用者が、取っ手部を持ち掃除機本体を運搬する時に、片寄りがなくなり、重心バランスがよく、手首に負担がかかりにくくなり、使い勝手が良くなる。   Furthermore, the rotating shaft that rotates relative to the cleaner body of the suction tool is provided with a locking portion (not shown) that restricts rotation except when the cleaner body 10 is tilted and operated. When the vacuum cleaner main body 10 is transported, the locking portion acts so that the suction tool does not rotate downward, so that the vacuum cleaner main body 10 is approximately on the center line 13 in the longitudinal direction. Since the substantially vertical direction in which the entire center of gravity of the vacuum cleaner body 10 acts and the direction of the center of gravity passing through the central portion of the suction tool 20 coincide with each other on substantially the same line, as a result, the user holds the handle portion and holds the When transporting, there is no deviation, the center of gravity balance is good, the wrist is less burdened, and the usability is improved.

尚、上述の実施の形態１では、掃除機本体１０内部にコードリール１５を備えている場合について説明をしたが、縦型電気掃除機の形態によっては、コードリール１５を備えておらず、長い電源コードを直接掃除機本体１０に接続させている形態もあり、この場合、コードリール１５が無い分、電動送風機室１２の上方中央には、塵埃を捕集する集塵部１６が、略円筒形状の長手方向である略円筒の中心軸を掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致するように配置される構成となる。   In the first embodiment, the case where the cord reel 15 is provided in the cleaner body 10 has been described. However, depending on the form of the vertical vacuum cleaner, the cord reel 15 is not provided and is long. There is also a form in which the power cord is directly connected to the cleaner body 10. In this case, a dust collecting portion 16 for collecting dust is substantially cylindrical at the upper center of the electric blower chamber 12 because there is no cord reel 15. It becomes a structure arrange | positioned so that the center axis | shaft of the substantially cylinder which is a longitudinal direction of a shape may correspond with the substantially center line 13 of the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10.

この様な構成においても、掃除機本体１０を立てた時に、重量部品の電動送風機１１ならびに集塵部１６の重心を通る各々の中心線が、掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致して配置されていて、かつ、操作ハンドル１９の把手部２９ならびに運搬用の取っ手部１７も掃除機本体１０の長手方向の略中心線１３上と合致して配置されることで、上述したコードリール１５を有した構成と同様の効果である、「掃除機本体の重心バランスがよく、掃除機本体の安定性が向上する。また、使用者が、掃除機本体を運搬する時に、片寄りがなくなり、重心バランスがよく、手首に負担がかかりにくくなり、使い勝手が良くなる。」といった効果も発揮できるものである。   Even in such a configuration, when the cleaner body 10 is erected, the center lines passing through the gravity centers of the heavy-duty electric blower 11 and the dust collecting portion 16 are substantially on the longitudinal center line 13 of the cleaner body 10. And the handle portion 29 of the operation handle 19 and the handle portion 17 for transportation are also aligned with the substantially center line 13 in the longitudinal direction of the cleaner body 10. This is the same effect as the configuration having the cord reel 15, “the balance of the center of gravity of the vacuum cleaner body is good and the stability of the vacuum cleaner body is improved. Also, when the user carries the vacuum cleaner body, It is possible to exhibit the effects of “no slippage, good balance of the center of gravity, less strain on the wrist, and better usability.”

以上のように、本発明は、掃除機本体の運搬可能な操作ハンドル及び、取っ手部に関するもので、持ち運び時の使い勝手及び、使用性の向上を実現できる縦型電気掃除機に適用できる。   As described above, the present invention relates to an operation handle and a handle portion that can be transported in a vacuum cleaner body, and can be applied to a vertical vacuum cleaner that can realize ease of use and improvement in usability.
