Abstract

An improved self-propulsion hovering vacuum cleaner for domestic or industrial application designed with air outlets which are predisposed symmetrically along the longitudinal axis of the underside of the casing for directing more air to the front and back directions of the vacuum cleaner to achieve a more even distribution of air underneath the vacuum cleaner to reduce juddering or rocking effects. The underside of the casing has a curve up surface predisposed symmetrically along the longitudinal axis of the underside of the casing for better retention of air to enhance the hovering effect. In another embodiment of the present invention, there are air distribution channels predisposed symmetrically on both sides of the underside of the casing along the longitudinal axis of the underside of the casing, said air distribution channels are in communication with the air outlets for directing more air to the front and back directions of the vacuum cleaner. The improved hovering vacuum machine is also equipped with self-propulsion features and self-cooling features.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 13 April 2007 (13.04.07)
1. A hovering vacuum cleaner comprising: - a suction inlet; a filter in a filter chamber; a casing enclosing the filter chamber; an impelling motor; a shell shaped structure enclosing the impelling motor; air outlets predisposed symmetrically at both sides of the underside of the casing, said shell shaped structure covering the air outlets at both sides of the casing; a pathway for air to flow from the inlet through the dust filter, the impelling motor and emit through the air outlet; a skirting predisposed along the perimeter of the underside of the casing to entrap air emitted through the air outlet and to create a cushion of air at the bottom of the casing to have a hovering effect; a curve up surface predisposed symmetrically along the longitudinal axis of the underside of the casing for better retention of air to enhance the hovering effect; characterized by forward and backward directional vanes installed at the air outlets at predetermined angles to direct air flow emitted through the outlet to the front and back directions of the vacuum cleaner,
2. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to claim 1, further comprising air distribution channels which arc predisposed symmetrically on both sides of the underside of the casing along the longitudinal axis of the underside of the casing, said air distribution channels are in communication with the air outlets for directing more air to the front and back directions of the vacuum cleaner.
3. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to any one of the claims 1 to 2, further comprising a jet outlet predisposed at the back of vacuum cleaner enable the entrapped air to flow through for self-propelling the vacuum cleaner for ease of maneuvering by the user when the vacuum cleaner is energized.
4. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to claim 3, wherein ihe jet outlet can be partially or fully closed by a jet outlet Hd.
5. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to any one of ihe claims 1 to 4, further comprising a combination of wheels for ease of maneuvering by the user when the vacuum cleaner is not energized.
6. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to any one of the claims 1 to 5, further comprising a shell shaped structure covering the impelling motor and in communication with the air outlets for directing the air flow emitted from the impelling motor to the bottom of the vacuum cleaner through the air outlet.
7. The hovering vacuum cleaner according to any one of the claims 1 to 6, further comprising air return holes on the underside of the casing for portion of the entrapped air to return to the exhaust chamber for cooling down ihe vacuum cleaner.
