Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner for use in general households.

Conventional Structure and Problems Conventionally, this type of vacuum cleaner has generally provided a fan motor unit 2 and a cord reel a inside a main body 1, as shown in FIG. Ta. This main body 1
After cleaning is completed, the cord 6 is placed on top of the storage box 4 and stored. When the cord is stored, the cord 6 is wound up on the cord reel 3 inside the main body 1, and the cord 6 is wound on the cord reel 3 inside the main body 1, and the cord 6 is placed on the storage box 4 and stored. The item 9 is placed in the storage box 4.

When cleaning, the cord 5 is pulled out from the cord reel 3 and used, and the cord reel inside the main body 1 is passed around to the user together with the main body 1 in an empty state.

Even though it is empty at the time of cleaning,
Since the cord reel 3 is located inside the main body 1, the main body must be moved around to accommodate the space required, making the vacuum cleaner itself difficult to handle.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves these conventional problems and provides a vacuum cleaner that is smaller in size and easier to handle.

Structure of the Invention The vacuum cleaner of the present invention includes a vacuum cleaner body equipped with a fan motor unit, a cord for supplying power to the fan motor unit, and a cord reel box provided inside with a cord reel for winding the cord. The cord reel box is provided separately from the vacuum cleaner main body, and while it has a cord reel for storing the cord, the vacuum cleaner main body is miniaturized and operability is improved.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In Figures 2 to 5, 6 is the vacuum cleaner body;
08 is a storage box in which a fan motor unit 7 is provided, and accessories such as hoses 9 are stored in the storage box.
is included.

Furthermore, a cord reel box 1o is attached to the side wall of the storage box 8, and a cord reel 11 is installed in the cord reel box 1o.
is provided. The main body 6 is placed and stored on the storage box 8 when not in use, and the cord 1 coming out from the main body 6 is
2 is wound on a cord reel 11. FIG. 2 shows the vacuum cleaner in its stored state. cord reel box 1
o has a configuration as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and is composed of a winding shaft 13, a partition disk 14, 14 fixed to the winding shaft 13, a bearing portion 16, and a winding spring 16. Figure 3 shows the cord 12 wound up and the spring 16
has fully grown. Further, FIG. 4 shows a state in which the cord is pulled out, and the spring 16 is wound up and energy is stored.

A stopper 17 is provided to prevent the spring from stretching naturally in this state. Further, the winding shaft 13 is provided with a gripping member 19 that grips a plug 18 attached to the tip of the cord 12 and winds the cord 12 therein.

The operation in the above configuration will be explained. When the main body 6 is removed from the storage state shown in Fig. 2 and the cord 12 is pulled out from the cord reel box 10, it becomes the operating state shown in Fig. 6.It is smaller than a conventional vacuum cleaner because it does not have a cord reel part. It becomes a vacuum cleaner with a standardized and easy-to-handle form. In this state of use, the cord reel box remains attached to the storage box 8. When cleaning is completed and the vacuum cleaner is to be stored, the main body 6 is placed on the storage box 8, and the stopper 17 is released by gripping the plug 18 attached to the tip of the hood 12 with the gripping member 19.

By the force of the spring 16, the cord 12 is wound around the winding shaft 13 from the tip end to which the plug 18 is attached, and is stored in the cord reel 11 where the cord 12 branches. In this way, code reel 1
1 is separate from the main body 6, the main body 6 can be designed more compactly than conventional ones, and has the advantage of being easier to move around.

Although the above embodiment shows an example in which the cord reel 11 is provided on the side wall of the storage box 8, the point is that the cord reel may be provided separately from the main body and separated from the main body.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, the vacuum cleaner of the present invention has the following features:
In particular, by providing the cord reel separately from the main body, the size of the main body can be reduced, making it easy to move around during cleaning and improving the ease of handling.
