ApplicationApliil zfl ,1948,erialNo. 23,049 Q This invention relates to a new and useful improvement'in utility conveyances and more par ticularly to a wheeled carry-all for supporting portable vacuum cleaners.-
There are now on the market certain vacuum cleaners which are made to slide on the floor or to be carried by a handle. When slid on the floor the usable length of hose is shortened as the cleaning attachment is usually carried about waist high. When the cleaner is carried by hand, only one hand is available for manipulating the attachments. This invention comprehends the furnishing of a novel cart which supports the vacuum cleaner in an upright position. The use of the cart permits the use of both hands for the manipulation thereof.
Another object constitutes the provision of an ambulatory cart which is so balanced thatit is maintained substantially in the upright position and remain stationary and which may be tilted slightly to enable locomotion.
The invention consists in certain novel combination and arrangements of parts as will hereinafter be more fully set forth in the claims. In the accompanying drawings, there has been illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of the invention wherein the parts are combined and arranged according to the best mode that has thus far been devised for the practical application of the principles of the invention.
In Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the vacuum cleaning cart;
Figure 2 is a front elevation of the same;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the vacuum cleaning cart;
Figure 4 is a perspective rear view of the cleaning cart;
Figure 5 is a view of the handle with portions broken away;
Figure 6 illustrates a modified form of a base and handle securing means;
Figure '7 is a view of the disassembled cleaner support members; and
Figure 8 is a view with parts broken away of modified form of spread bar and end of member 34.
Referring to the drawings in detail, handle W has on the upper end thereof hand grip member l l. The handle I ii is removably secured to member 12, which member constitutes a handle attaching means. Mount-ed in the lower part of member I 2 is axle It which has on the outer ends thereof rotatably mounted wheels l6 and H3. It is generally preferred that these wheels be pro vided with rubber tires. Secured to member l2 3 Claims. 1 (01. 15-257) and'eirtending outwardly therefrom is cleaner sup-'- ber shown generally at 34 is removably secured port'base member 2!: which terminates in the leg 22. provided with a rubber shoe or the like 24 which prevents abrasion of the-floor surface. Mounted on member 20 are vacuum support members 26 and 28. These are secured to the base members bya suitable bolt 29 and wing nut 30. Se-
cured to the handle Ill-and formed as shown in: Figure 1 is stair guide member 32, which is se- 1 cured to the base by bolt 29 and wing nut so.
This enables the cart'to be taken up and down stairways with comparable ease and without damage to such stairs. For supporting the vacuum cleaner and for holding the attachments, a memto the handle H]. In the upper and the lower ends of the member 34 are shown supporting and spread bars 36 and 3B. Passing through'these bars and the handle are bolts 4B and &2 which are held in place by wing nuts 44 and it. The
In Figure 6 is shown a modified form of vacuum cleaner supporter base member, in which member 66 is formed integral with the base member 29 and the handle it] fits over the member fit and is removably secured thereto by any suitable means such as cotter pin 62. In Figure 7 is shown the vacuum support members 26 and 23 before being assembled. In Figure 5 is shown the upper end of the handle II] which consists of two parts, the upper part being so arranged as to slide over the other part so that during shipping, the handle may be disassembled. This also permits the adjusting of the height of the handle to a suitable height for the operator.
In Figure 8 is shown a modified form of spreader bar 5 which has one side at least made of spring steel, and this side has groove 66 formed therein. The canvas or like material 68 is folded over a cord ill, and this cord is sewn in the upper end of the canvas 68. This enables the cord to be slipped into the groove 66 and provides easy Generally, it is preferred that this legbewidth and said base having an axle receivin'gi opening in one end and the opposite end of the base being turned downwardly to provide a rigid supporting leg, a vacuum: cleaner supporting means mounted on the base intermediatethe-ends thereof, a handle attaching means .on thebase adjacent the end having the axle receiving" open ing therein, an upwardly-extending handle re movably secured on the handle attaching means, an axle mounted in the axle receiving opening.
