Each operation mode is set by making the input value of the electric blower 8 different from each other while being associated with the operation signal input from the pipe section 3.

  The power cord 11 includes a power plug 14 at the free end.

  The pipe portion 3 sucks dust-containing air from the surface to be cleaned and guides it to the cleaner body 2 by the negative pressure acting from the cleaner body 2 as the electric blower 8 is operated. The pipe section 3 includes a connection pipe 19 that is detachably connected to the main body connection port 12 of the cleaner body 2, a dust collection hose 21 that is connected to the connection pipe 19, and a hand control pipe that is connected to the dust collection hose 21. 22, a gripping portion 23 provided protruding from the hand operation tube 22, an operation portion 24 provided on the gripping portion 23, an extension tube 25 detachably connected to the hand operation tube 22, and an extension tube 25 A suction port body 26 detachably connected to the suction port body 26.

  The connection pipe 19 is a tubular body communicated with the dust separation and dust collection container 7 through the main body connection port 12.

  The dust collection hose 21 is a hose which is flexible and is formed in an elongated substantially cylindrical shape. The dust collection hose 21 has one end connected to the connection pipe 19. The dust collecting hose 21 is communicated with the dust separating and collecting container 7 through the connecting pipe 19.

  The hand operating tube 22 has one end connected to the other end of the dust collecting hose 21. The hand operating tube 22 communicates with the dust separating and collecting container 7 through the connecting tube 19 and the dust collecting hose 21.

  The grip portion 23 is a portion that the user grips with his / her hand to operate the vacuum cleaner 1. The gripping portion 23 is provided so as to protrude from the other end portion of the hand operating tube 22 with an appropriate shape adapted to the hand so that the user can easily grip it by hand.

  The operation unit 24 includes a switch corresponding to each operation mode. Specifically, the operation unit 24 includes a stop switch 24a that receives an operation stop operation of the electric blower 8 by the user, and an activation switch 24b that receives an operation start operation of the electric blower 8 by the user. The start switch 24b may include a weak operation switch (not shown), a medium operation switch (not shown), and a strong operation switch (not shown). The user of the vacuum cleaner 1 can alternatively select the operation mode of the electric blower 8 by operating the operation unit 24.

  The extension tube 25 is a tube formed in an elongated substantially cylindrical shape that can be expanded and contracted.

The suction port body 26 communicates with the dust separation and dust collection container 7 through the extension pipe 25, the hand operation pipe 22 and the dust collection hose 21.

  When the start switch 24 b is operated, the electric vacuum cleaner 1 drives the electric blower 8 to apply a negative pressure (suction negative pressure) to the inside of the cleaner main body 2. This negative pressure acts on the suction port 28 of the suction port body 26 from the main body connection port 12 through the dust collecting hose 21, the hand operating tube 22 and the extension tube 25. Due to the negative pressure acting on the suction port 28, the vacuum cleaner 1 sucks dust collected on the surface to be cleaned together with air from the suction port 28 to clean the surface to be cleaned. The dust-containing air sucked into the suction port 28 is separated into air and dust by the dust separating and collecting container 7 accommodated in the cleaner body 2. The separated dust is collected in a dust separation and collection container 7. On the other hand, the separated air passes through the dust separation and collection container 7 and is sucked into the electric blower 8 and exhausted from the cleaner body 2.

  FIG. 5 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a dust separation / collection container according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the dust separating and collecting container 7 according to this embodiment includes a container main body 35, a suction pipe 36, a rectifying member 37, a discharge pipe 38, a partition wall 39, and a filtration part 41. (Filter part), the cup member 42, the columnar member 43, the filtration part 45, the disk 46, and the pleat filter part 48 are provided.

  In addition, the dust separating and collecting container 7 may be arranged in the vertical direction or in the horizontal direction with respect to the center line C of the cylindrical container body 35 in the state where it is mounted on the cleaner body 2. It may be arranged to be tilted at an arbitrary angle.

  The container body 35 is a bottomed cylindrical container, and is an exhaust air passage 55 defined between one bottom 35a and the partition wall 39, and a collection defined between the other bottom 35b and the cup member 42. A dust chamber 56 and a separation part 57 defined between the partition wall 39 and the cup member 42 are provided. The container body 35 includes a lid 58 that can be freely opened and closed on the other bottom portion 35 b of the dust collection chamber 56. The lid 58 is pivotally supported by a hinge mechanism 61 provided on the side wall 35 c of the container body 35 to open and close the dust collection chamber 56. When the container body 35 opens the lid 58, the dust accumulated in the dust collection chamber 56 can be discarded outside the container body 35.

  The suction pipe 36 is an inlet pipe that is connected to the side wall 35 c of the container body 35 and guides air along the inner peripheral surface of the container body 35. The suction pipe 36 makes the main body connection port 12 of the cleaner body 2 communicate with the separation portion 57 in the container main body 35. The suction pipe 36 has a flow path oriented in a tangential direction of a concentric circle with respect to the center line C of the container main body 35. When the electric blower 8 is driven and negative pressure acts on the container main body 35, a swirl flow F is generated in the container main body 35. Is generated.

  The rectifying member 37 rectifies the flow of the dust-containing air guided from the suction pipe 36 into the container main body 35, and is provided on the suction pipe 36 and extends toward the container main body 35.

  The discharge pipe 38 is an outlet pipe connected to the one bottom portion 35 a side of the container body 35 with respect to the suction pipe 36. The discharge pipe 38 allows the exhaust air passage 55 in the container main body 35 and the suction port (not shown) of the electric blower 8 to communicate with each other.

  The suction pipe 36 and the discharge pipe 38 are integrally formed on the side wall 35c of the container body 35.

  The partition wall 39 is a wall that partitions the suction pipe 36 and the discharge pipe 38, and has an opening 39 a that is substantially concentric with the container body 35. The partition wall 39 is held by the container body 35 and partitions both spaces so that the dust-containing air that has flowed into the separation portion 57 does not generate the swirling flow F and does not directly flow into the exhaust air passage 55. The opening 39a is an opening in which a surface orthogonal to the center line C of the container body 35 is opened in a circular shape. The partition wall 39 includes an inner cylinder 62 that extends into the separation portion 57 along the center line C of the container body 35. The inner cylinder 62 holds the cup member 42 and the disk 46 in the container main body 35. The inner cylinder 62 has side surfaces configured in a lattice shape, and has a large opening 62a that communicates the space inside and outside the cylinder.

  The filtration part 41 is a mesh filter having a cylindrical shape substantially concentric with the container main body 35, and is accommodated in the container main body 35 (more specifically, the separation part 57) so as to face the suction pipe 36 and provided in the opening 39a. . More specifically, the filtration unit 41 maintains a cylindrical shape so as to surround the side wall of the lattice-shaped inner cylinder 62, and the swirling flow F in the separation unit 57 is sufficiently developed, for example, immediately after the electric blower 8 starts to be driven or immediately after it is stopped. During the period when the swirl flow F is not developed, and naturally after the swirl flow F is developed, the dust is prevented from flowing from the separation portion 57 into the exhaust air passage 55. In addition, the filtration part 41 may be not only a cylinder shape but also a cone shape such as a cone shape or a polygonal cone shape.

  The cup member 42 has a bottomed cylindrical shape that is open toward the inner surface of the other bottom portion 35 b of the container body 35, and is disposed closer to the other bottom portion 35 b of the container body 35 than the filtration portion 41. The cup member 42 includes a side wall 53 that forms gaps 51 and 52 between the inner peripheral surface of the container body 35 and the inner surface of the other bottom portion 35b, and a bottom wall 54 having an opening 54a. The inside of the cup member 42 forms a dust collection chamber 56 together with the bottom 35b (that is, the lid body 58) of the container body 35. The cup member 42 has an inner peripheral surface that expands toward the other bottom 35 b (that is, the lid body 58) of the container body 35.

  Further, the cup member 42 causes the separation portion 57 and the dust collection chamber 56 to communicate with each other through the gaps 51 and 52 with the container main body 35. The gap 51 is formed over the entire circumference of the inner peripheral surface of the container body 35 and the outer peripheral surface of the cup member 42. On the other hand, the opening 54 a of the cup member 42 is an opening disposed closer to the center line C of the container body 35 than the gap 51, and allows the dust collection chamber 56 and the separation portion 57 to communicate with each other. Separation part 57 and dust collection room 56 are connected by gaps 51 and 52 and opening 54a. The gaps 51 and 52 guide the swirling flow F generated in the separation unit 57 to the dust collecting chamber 56 together with dust. On the other hand, the opening 54 a returns the swirl flow F guided into the dust collection chamber 56 to the separation unit 57.

  The columnar member 43 is extended along the center line C of the container body 35 from the bottom wall 54 of the cup member 42 to the other bottom portion 35b of the container body 35 (that is, the lid body 58). It is a hollow cylinder. The columnar member 43 is brought into contact with the lid body 58 to block the air flow between the hollow portion and the dust collection chamber 56. The columnar member 43 may be formed integrally with the inner cylinder 62, and the hollow portion thereof may be communicated with the inner cylinder 62.

  The filtering unit 45 is a mesh-like filter provided in the opening 54 a of the cup member 42. The filtering part 45 may be coarse enough that fibrous dust such as lint and cotton dust that has flowed into the dust collecting chamber 56 does not return to the separation part 57.

  The disk 46 is disposed between the filtering part 41 and the filtering part 45 and forms a gap with the bottom wall 54 of the cup member 42. The disk 46 is formed in an umbrella shape that approaches the bottom wall 54 of the cup member 42 from the inner periphery toward the outer periphery. The disk 46 is desirably large enough to overlap at least a part of the filtering part 41 and cover the filtering part 45 when viewed in the direction of the center line C of the container body 35.

  The pleated filter portion 48 is a filter provided in a flow path (that is, the exhaust air passage 55) between the opening 39 a of the partition wall 39 and the discharge pipe 38. The pleated filter unit 48 captures fine particulate fine particles that can pass through the filtering unit 41 during a period in which the swirling flow F of the separating unit 57 is not sufficiently developed, such as immediately after the electric blower 8 is started or stopped. The fine dust is not sucked into the electric blower 8.

  Further, the dust separation and dust collection container 7 has a flow path cross-sectional area S1 in the gap 51 between the inner peripheral surface of the container body 35 and the outer peripheral surface of the cup member 42, and the bottom wall 54 of the cup member 42 and the edge of the disk 46. Assuming that the channel cross-sectional area in the gap 63 is S2, there is a relationship of channel cross-sectional area S1> channel cross-sectional area S2.

  Furthermore, in the dust separation and dust collection container 7, assuming that the flow path cross-sectional area in the gap 52 between the inner surface of the other bottom portion 35 b of the container body 35 and the open end of the cup member 42 is S 3, the flow cross-sectional area S 3> There is a relationship of area S1.

  That is, the dust separation container 7 has a flow passage cross-sectional area that is narrowed toward the downstream in the path from the separation portion 57 through the dust collection chamber 56 to the separation portion 57 (flow passage cross-sectional area S3> flow). The cross-sectional area S1> the cross-sectional area S2), and the flow velocity of the swirling flow F flowing into the dust collecting chamber 56 is rapidly reduced.

  The opening 54a may be an opening group composed of a plurality of openings arranged concentrically and at equal intervals with respect to the center of the container body 35. The opening 54a has an appropriately small diameter (for example, a diameter of 5 mm) so that fiber dust such as lint and cotton that has flowed into the dust collecting chamber 56 without being blocked by the filtering unit 45 does not return to the separation unit 57. An opening group (filtering portion) including a plurality of openings having the following) may be used.

  Further, the gap 51 and the opening 54a are not limited to those formed or arranged in an annular shape around the center of the container body 35 over the entire circumference. Specifically, the gap 51 may be formed in an arc shape along the inner periphery of the container body 35. Further, the opening 54 a may be arranged such that a part of the circumference is opened in an arc shape while being arranged closer to the center of the container body 35 than the gap 51.

  FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a dust separation / collection container according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a rectifying member of the dust separating and collecting container according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the rectifying member 37 of the dust separating and collecting container 7 according to the present embodiment has a gap between the opening edge of the suction pipe 36 and the container body 35 and the filtering part 41 (or the inner cylinder 62). A rectifying plate 66 extending toward 65 is provided.

  The rectifying plate 66 is provided at the opening edge of the suction pipe 36, particularly at the opening edge located on the inner side of the container body 35 in the streamline direction of the air flowing through the suction pipe 36, and is guided from the suction pipe 36 into the container body 35. It is extended in the direction of the air flow. Further, the rectifying plate 66 is extended toward the tangential direction of the outer periphery of the filtering part 41. Further, the rectifying plate 66 is extended at an appropriate distance from the filtering part 41 so that the swirl flow F can pass through.

  FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing another example of the dust separation and dust collection container according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing another example of the rectifying member of the dust separation and dust collection container according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  FIG. 10 is a perspective view showing a rectifying tube of the dust separation and collection container according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the rectifying member 37 of the dust separating and collecting container 7 according to the present embodiment is formed in a tubular shape including a rectifying plate 66, and enters the container main body 35 from the opening edge of the suction pipe 36. This is an extended rectifier tube 68.

  The rectifying pipe 68 is fitted into the suction pipe 36 and fixed. The fitting between the rectifying pipe 68 and the suction pipe 36 is desirably an intermediate fit or an interference fit.

  In the dust separating and collecting container 7 configured as described above, when the electric blower 8 is driven, a negative pressure is applied to the exhaust air passage 55 via the discharge pipe 38. The negative pressure of the exhaust air passage 55 acts on the separation portion 57 through the opening 39a. Furthermore, the negative pressure of the separation part 57 acts on the pipe part 3 via the suction pipe 36. Then, the dust-containing air sucked into the pipe part 3 traces the pipe part 3 in the reverse direction and is guided to the dust separation and dust collection container 7.

  The dust-containing air guided to the dust separation dust collecting container 7 flows along the inner peripheral surface of the container main body 35 from the suction pipe 36 and generates a swirling flow F in the separation portion 57. At this time, the dust separation dust collecting container 7 smoothly moves the dust-containing air flowing into the container main body 35 from the suction pipe 36 into the gap 65 between the container main body 35 and the filtering part 41 by the rectifying member 37 or the rectifying plate 66 of the rectifying pipe 68. Lead to. Further, the dust separation dust collecting container 7 directs the swirl flow F that has circulated in the container main body 35 by the rectifying plate 66 toward the center line C side (more specifically, the filtration unit 41 side) of the container main body 35. That is, the swirl flow F is smoothly guided to the vicinity of the outer periphery of the filtration unit 41 by the rectifying effect of the rectifying plate 66. In this process, the swirl flow F centrifuges the dust-containing air into air and dust. A part of the separated air passes through the filtering part 41 arranged in the vicinity of the center of the vortex of the swirling flow F, and reaches the exhaust air passage 55 through the opening 39a (solid arrow Fr in FIG. 2). The remainder of the separated air and the separated dust flow along the inner peripheral surface of the container body 35 and flow into the dust collecting chamber 56 through the gaps 51 and 52.

  The dust flowing into the dust collection chamber 56 includes fine particulate fine dust that can be transmitted through the opening 54a and the filtering portion 45 in addition to the fibrous dust. The fibrous dust is collected while turning in the cup member 42 and accumulated so as to surround the columnar member 43.

  On the other hand, the air that has flowed into the dust collection chamber 56 tries to return from the dust collection chamber 56 to the separation portion 57 through the opening 54 a of the cup member 42. However, the air blown out from the cup member 42 through the opening 54 a is blocked by the disk 46 provided between the dust collection chamber 56 and the separation portion 57, so that the flow velocity decreases. Although a part of this air returns to the separation part 57, the other part merges with the swirl flow F flowing through the gap 51 to generate the circulation flow Fc in the dust collection chamber 56.

  The dust separating and collecting container 7 that generates such an air flow smoothly guides the swirling flow F to the vicinity of the outer periphery of the filtration unit 41 by the rectifying plate 66. As a result, a part of the air centrifuged from the dust-containing air rides on the flow of the swirl flow F and smoothly passes through the filtering part 41 to reach the exhaust air passage 55. That is, the dust separation / collection container 7 smoothes the flow of the air passing through the filtering unit 41, suppresses the spread of the turbulent flow area generated around the air, and suppresses the noise generated greatly in the turbulent flow area. Thus, the swirling flow F around the filtration part 41 smoothly passes through the filtration part 41, so that the noise generated in the container body 35 is suppressed, and the noise emitted from the suction port 28 of the suction port body 26 is about 1. Reduced by 4 dBA. Moreover, the dust separation dust collection container 7 showed improvement in the suction efficiency of about 10 W (about 2.2%) by suppressing the spread of the turbulent flow region generated around the filtration unit 41.

  Further, the dust separating and collecting container 7 captures the filtering unit 45 by reducing the flow velocity of the air returning from the dust collecting chamber 56 to the separating unit 57 and circulating a part of this air to the dust collecting chamber 56. The fine dust that cannot be exhausted stays in the dust collecting chamber 56 and is less likely to return to the separation portion 57 side, and as a result, the fine dust is prevented from reaching the pleated filter portion 48.

  Therefore, according to the dust separating and collecting container 7 according to the present embodiment, the cylindrical container main body 35 is provided, and the swirl flow F is generated inside the container main body 35 to perform the centrifugal separation of the dust-containing air and the separation. The generation of noise due to the swirling flow can be reduced while accumulating the generated dust.

  The vacuum cleaner 1 according to the present embodiment is not limited to a canister type, but may be an upright type, a stick type, or a handy type.
