These springs are so designed that in the the remainder of the machine and to the surfaceinoperative relationship ofthe vibrator the arma; agitating elements in connection with, which it ture 28 is supported and held substantially' mid- .nds its usefulness; In'the drawing a cleaner way betweenthe poles 31- and 32 and movement nozzle is found indicated bythe reference charactoward either pole division 31er 32 that is, either l05 ter 1, and the cleaner fan chamber, to which the upwardly or downwardly, results in theplacing of nozzle is interiorly connected, by the character 2, the springs under 4either tension or compression; therebeing a rotatable fan 4 positioned within The arms 20, 2O are also extended forward of the fan chamber. Surface-contacting nozzle lips the armature 28 andy through openings 19, 19 into 13 and-14 'define the nozzle mouth under which the nozzle where they carry suitable surface-agi- 11i) tating elements. In Figure 1 of the drawing a plurality of vibrators are shown each being connected to a rigid beating member 15. In Figure 2, however, the arms 20, 20 of theI vibrator carry not only a rigid beating member 15, but also a brush 15a. The openings 19, 19 to which the arms20, 20 extend into the nozzle are of sufcient dimensions to` permit the movement of the arms 20, 20 under the action of the vibrator.
In the operation of the.described construction the surface covering undergoing cleaning would be lifted against the vnozzle lips 13 and 14 by the action of the suction-creating fan 4 which creates a reduced pressure within the nozzle. The
beater element 15, and in the case of Figure 2, 15'
and 15a, would be slightly raised by the lifted surface covering thereby moving the armature 28 in the direction of the pole division 31 of the core 26. With the coil 25 energized, as it would be in the operative relationship, and with armature 28 slightly displaced toward pole 31, upon the current passing through its maximum value, an alternating current being assumed, armature 28 would be drawn to a position adjacent pole 31, placing springs 23, 23 under tension. Upon the reversal of current and the consequent reduction in ux, the spring 23 at each link 20 would force armature 28 downwardly, thru pivoting the links and the momentum acquired by the armature would carry it in the direction of poles 32 past the mid-point and, as the current again increased to maximum value, armature 28 would be'drawn ,in the direction of pole 32 placing each spring 23 under compression. In the next half cycle of current the operation would be reversed, the armature again being moved to the poles 31 at the opposite ends of the core 26. results in the alternate lifting and forcing downwardly of the beating elementscomprising the rigid beater 15, or beater and brush 15 and 15a, as the case may be. As is evident from the above description both the beating .blow of the agitating elements and the lifting force is effected by the magnetic vibrator. By correctly designing the weight of the moving parts and the strength of the springs 23, 23 it is clear that an extremely efficient' vibrating unit can be produced.
I claim:

An electric vibrator comprising spaced staf tionary poles of opposite polarities, an alternating current winding adapted to reverse the polarities of said poles, each of lsaid poles being divided, a movable armature extending between saidn poles and mounted for movement toward and from each division of each pole, and resilient means opposing the movement of said armature on either side of a mid-position between the divisions of each pole and adapted to reverse the direction of travel 'of said armature upon the reversal of polarity of said poles caused by said winding.
