  • the knob portion 48 is held and the drawer portion 40 is moved rearward relative to the dust collection case 30, and the drawer portion 40 is moved. It is removed (taken out) from the dust collection case 30 through the outlet 34 .
  • the drawer portion 40 especially the front end connecting portion 44 draws out (scrapes out) the dust in the dust collection chamber 32 through the discharge port 34 .
  • the operation of removing the drawer 40 from the dust collection case 30 is preferably performed on a trash can or a garbage bag with the outlet 34 directed in the direction of gravity.
  • the connecting portion 46 of the drawer portion 40 and the cover portion 37 of the dust collection case 30 are aligned with each other, and the drawer portion 40 is directed toward the inside of the dust collection case 30.
  • the dust collection case 30 can be moved forward in a straight line, and the hook portion 38 of the dust collection case 30 can be hooked on the claw portion 49 of the drawer portion 40 .
  • the connecting portion 46 of the drawer portion 40 and the cutout portion 16 of the main body housing 10 are aligned with each other, and the dust collection case 30 is directed toward the front end portion of the main body housing 10 . , so that the claws 23 of the latch member 21 on the main body housing 10 side are hooked to the latch engagement holes 36 of the dust collection case 30 .
  • the present embodiment even when the dust collection case 30 has an elongated shape, dust can be easily removed from the inside of the dust collection chamber 32, resulting in good workability.
  • the present embodiment enables the dust collection case 30 to have an elongated shape, thereby achieving a reduction in size in the radial direction.
  • the drawer part 40 has a regulation part 50 at its front end that functions as a valve that prevents dust from flowing out from the dust collection chamber 32 toward the suction port 33 . Further, the drawer portion 40 has a dust removal packing 54 for removing dust from the filter 61 . That is, the drawer portion 40 is not a dedicated member for drawing dust out of the dust collection chamber 32 . Therefore, compared to the case of separately providing a dedicated member for extracting dust from the dust collection chamber 32, it is possible to suppress an increase in the number of parts, an increase in product weight, and cost.
  • the drawer part 40 In order to close the suction port 33 with the restriction part 50, the drawer part 40 needs to extend to the front end inside the dust collection chamber 32. preferably extends to the front end within dust collection chamber 32 . That is, by incorporating the function of the restricting portion 50, which must extend to the front end portion in the dust collection chamber 32, into the drawer portion 40, the drawer portion 40 closes the suction port 33 and prevents dust from inside the dust collection chamber 32. can be suitably realized.
  • the drawn-out portion 40 has the restricting portion 50, it is not necessary to fix the restricting portion 50 to the dust collecting case 30 by screwing or the like, which facilitates assembly.
  • the restricting portion 50 can be easily attached to the holding portion 45 by fitting the mounting portion 52 into the holding portion 45 from the right side. If there is a step of fixing the restricting portion 50 to the dust collection case 30 by screwing or the like, the assembling performance is poor, especially when the dust collection case 30 has an elongated shape. Problems can be solved well.
  • the drawer portion 40 has a dust removal packing 54, and when the drawer portion 40 is removed from the main body housing 10 together with the dust collection case 30, the dust removal blade 56 slides on the outer peripheral surface of the filter 61 and contacts the outer peripheral surface of the filter 61. Remove accumulated dust. Therefore, the filter 61 is dust-removed in the process of removing the dust inside the dust-collecting case 30, and workability is good.
  • the drawer 40 may have a structure (brush or elastic blade) for removing dust from the inner wall of the dust collection chamber 32 .
  • This dust removing structure is preferably located at the front end of the drawer portion 40 .
  • This dust removing structure may be formed integrally with the restricting portion 50 . For example, if the size of the cover portion 51 is enlarged and brought into contact with the inner wall of the dust collection chamber 32, the inner wall of the dust collection chamber 32 becomes a simple dust removal structure.
  • the work machine of the present invention may be one that operates on power from a battery incorporated in the body housing, or may be a corded type that operates on power from an external AC power source.
