Abstract

PURPOSE:To ensure satisfaction and a sense of ease by a method wherein a microcomputer is actuated to receive inputs from a voice synthesization IC and a melody IC and a voice for notifying the end of working and a relieving melody are broadcast after a dusting off is completed by the changing over of a switch and the starting of a motor. CONSTITUTION:A main switch 19 is provided on a switch substrate 18 on an internal wall surface of a motor chamber 13 and a remote control switch is provided at the handling side of a hose. The respective switches are of a double- speed type switch which is capable of changing an output of a motor 14 high or low. The main switch 19 or the remote control switch is changed over to start a dusting motor 8 and the bottom of a main filter 7 is struck with a collar 8a to remove fine dusts. After the stoppage of the dusting motor 8, about 4sec. passes for the silencing of the motor, a microcomputer is actuated to broadcast a voice notifying the end of working and a relieving melody automatically for about 36 sec. from a speaker 12.
