Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner equipped with a filter cleaning brush for removing dust attached to the filter.

Conventionally, there was no designated storage location for filter cleaning brushes used to remove dust adhering to filters, so when they were to be used, it took time to find them, and the brushes were easily lost.

There are also some filters that have a storage location built into the filter storage part to save time looking for them, but these use a part of the parts that support the filter to hold the filter. If it gets in the way when cleaning by washing with water, or if you activate a separate dust removal mechanism that applies vibration to the filter to remove dust, the vibration may cause the powder to fall out of the storage area and be lost. It had some drawbacks, such as being easy to use.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology, and the filter cleaning brush is kept in a storage part formed separately from the filter storage part in the dust collection case.

In this way, the time spent searching is saved, and the dust removing mechanism that removes dust by applying vibration to the filler is prevented from easily falling out of the storage location.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained according to the illustrated embodiments. 1 is a dust collection case of a vacuum cleaner, and a latch 2 is used to detachably connect a main body case (not shown) containing a built-in blower, cord reel, etc. is attached by a mounting member 3.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a filter cleaning brush, which is inserted into a housing portion 5 integrally formed with the mounting member 3 and held within the dust collection case 1 when not in use.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a storage section 5 that stores the filter cleaning brush 4.
, 7 is a projection formed on the rim of the lower end opening 11 of the cylindrical portion, 8 is a filter, and 9 is a housing portion for the filter 8 provided in the dust collection case 1 .

In the above configuration, the filter cleaning brush 4 is formed in advance so that both ends of the handle are slightly wide, and when the filter cleaning brush 4 is inserted into the storage section 5, the tip of the filter cleaning brush 4 has a cylindrical shape. It hits the protrusion 7 that passed through 6.

At this time, by setting the width of the tip handle portion 10 of the cleaning brush 4 and the dimension of the lower end opening 11 of the cylindrical portion 6 to be approximately the same, or by setting the dimension of the opening 11 to be slightly smaller, the filter cleaning brush 4 can have a protrusion. The filter cleaning brush 4 temporarily stops when it hits the cylindrical part 7, but by pushing it further in this state, it gets over the protrusion 7 and the filter cleaning brush 4 completely touches the cylindrical part 6.
It is stored and kept inside.

On the other hand, since the filter 8 is stored in the filter storage part 9 of the dust collection case 1, when discarding the dust accumulated inside the dust collection case 1, only this dust collection case 1 must be taken to the dust disposal area and then removed. Dust attached to the filter 8 can be removed in the field by using the filter cleaning brush 4.

Especially if it is not necessary to use the filter cleaning brush 4,
It is sufficient to take out only the filter 8 and throw away the dust inside the dust collection case 1.

Generally, the filter 8 is provided with a separate dust removal device that removes dust by applying vibrations. Since it does not have any effect on the storage part 5 of the brush 4, there is no worry that the brush will fall out of the storage part 5 and be lost.

As described above, according to the present invention, the filter cleaning brush storage part is formed in the dust collection case separately from the filter storage part, so when the dust collection case is not used to remove dust attached to the filter, the filter cleaning brush is stored inside the dust collection case. This saves you the trouble of looking for it, and it is less likely to get lost because it is not removed from the dust collection case every time you empty it.

Additionally, even if a dust removal device that vibrates the filter is activated, there is no need to worry about the filter falling out of the storage area.
