Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner in which the main body of the vacuum cleaner is divided into two parts approximately at the center, and is comprised of a front case and a rear case.

In conventional vacuum cleaners of this type, the overall length of the vacuum cleaner body was relatively short and the height was high, so when the front case was separated from the rear case, the front case Because casters and the like are attached to the bottom surface, it is impossible to keep the front case alone in a stable state.

For this reason, the outer surface of the case is easily damaged, and since dust is collected inside the front case, the dust inside may be accidentally released to the outside, which is extremely inconvenient.

The present invention eliminates these conventional drawbacks and provides a vacuum cleaner that has a simple structure and allows stable placement of the front case alone.

The present invention will be explained below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, 1 is a flat vacuum cleaner body with a wide width and a low height. It is divided into two parts in the front and back from approximately the center, and the inside is a dust collection chamber. It consists of a front case 2 and a rear case 3 that houses and installs an electric blower, cord reel, etc.

The front case 2 has a recess 4 formed on its upper surface, and a handle member 5 is installed in the recess in a substantially horizontal direction.

A latch member 6 for connecting and separating the front case 2 and the rear case 3 is attached to the rear end of this handle member, and the front end of the handle member 5 is made to substantially coincide with the front end of the front case 2. Furthermore, the front end surface of the front end of the handle member 5 is formed into a plane substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the front case 2, which is substantially parallel to the direction of airflow flowing from the front case 2 side to the rear case 3 side during operation of the electric blower. It is a form of formality.

7 is a suction port provided on the front end surface of the front case 2, 8 is a caster attached to the bottom surface of the front case 2, 9 is a shock absorbing bumper attached around the front case 2, and the suction port from the side to the front It is provided near the lower part.

On the other hand, the rear case 3 has wheels 10 for running on both sides of the bottom, bumpers 11 for shock absorption on the sides, and a main body switch 1 on the top.
2. A top plate 14 to which a cord winding operation section 13 and the like are attached and an exhaust port 15 are provided, respectively.

Since the present invention has the above configuration, when the front case 2 and the rear case 3 are connected, the caster 8 of the front case 2 and the pair of wheels 10 of the rear case 3 maintain a stable state. It can run freely on the floor.

In addition, when separating the vacuum cleaner main body 1 into a front case 2 and a rear case 3 and removing dust from the filter member installed in the front case 2, the front end of the front case 2 is placed downward. As shown in Figure 2, it can be placed on the floor or the like.

That is, the front end of the handle member 5 provided on the upper surface of the front case 2 substantially coincides with the front end of the front case 2, and the handle member 5
The front end surface of the front case 2 is formed into a plane substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the front case 2, which is substantially parallel to the direction of air flow from the front case 2 side to the rear case 3 side. 2, with the separation surface from the rear case 3 facing upward, and insert the handle member 5.
It can be stably placed on the front end surface of the front case 2 and the front end of the front case 2.

In addition, in this embodiment, in this mounting state, the bumper 9 for shock absorption attached around the front case 2 comes into contact with the mounting surface, so that the front end surface of the front case 2 is not damaged at all. It is.

As described above, the present invention includes a front case in which a filter member is installed, and a rear case that is detachably provided at the rear of the front case and houses electrical components such as an electric blower inside. In the vacuum cleaner, a handle member is provided on the upper surface of the front case, and the front end of the handle member is substantially aligned with the front end facing the dividing surface of the front case, and the front end surface of the handle member is placed on the front case side. Since the plane is approximately perpendicular to the center axis of the front case, which is approximately parallel to the direction of air flow from the front case to the rear case side, only the front case can be connected to the front end surface of the handle member with the separating surface of the front case facing up. With the front end of the front case, the dust collected in the front case can be placed without spilling to the outside.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

The drawings show one embodiment of the present invention, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the main body of the vacuum cleaner, and Fig. 2 is a side view of the front case placed on the floor or the like. In the figure, 1 is the vacuum cleaner body, 2 is the front case, 3 is the rear case,
5 is a handle member, 9 is a bumper.

Claims (1)
