Upright Vacuum Cleaner

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an upright vacuum cleaner in which dust can be removed easily from a cyclone tube thereof without a user's hand or a nozzle being soiled.SOLUTION: The upright vacuum cleaner includes: a cleaner body 2 having an aspiration mechanism unit 4 structured to contain an electric blower 5 and a dust separation means connected to the lower part of the aspiration mechanism unit 4; and a nozzle connected to a receiving connection port 6 disposed on the bottom of the cleaner body 2, wherein a periphery 35B as the side of a dust chamber 35 of a cyclone tube 9 that constitutes the dust separation means 8 includes a waste hole 37 that communicates with the interior and exterior of the cyclone tube 9, and the waste hole 37 includes an open / close lid 36. As a result, it becomes possible to cause dust accumulated in the cyclone tube 9 to naturally drop into a dust box or the like after the cleaner body 2 is laid down and the open / close lid 36 is opened while the cyclone tube 9 is attached to the aspiration mechanism unit 4 and the nozzle 3 is attached to the cyclone tube 9. Thus, dust can be removed easily without soiling a hand and the nozzle 3.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an upright electric vacuum cleaner called a handle type electric vacuum cleaner, and more particularly to a cyclone type upright electric vacuum cleaner. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, this type of upright electric vacuum cleaner has a vacuum cleaner main body and a suction nozzle constituted by providing a handle on the upper part, and a dust separation member is detachably attached to a suction mechanism part with a built-in electric blower, and the suction nozzle is introduced from the suction nozzle. An upright electric vacuum cleaner in which dust contained in the suction airflow is separated by the dust separating means by the suction airflow generated by the electric blower (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). [0003] Moreover, in the prior art, the cyclone which comprises the said dust separation means is connected to the lower part of the said suction mechanism part. And the suction ai...
