Disclosed is a vacuum cleaner holding apparatus. The disclosed vacuum cleaner holding apparatus comprises: a holder including a first charging terminal provided so as to be electrically, connectable to a vacuum cleaner equipped with a first battery; a base which includes a second charging terminal provided so as to be electrically connectable to a second battery, and which is provided to receive a first power adapter provided to supply power to the first charging terminal and a second power adapter provided to supply power to the second charging terminal; and a support connecting the holder and the base and having a cavity formed therein.

A charging base (400) includes: a base seat (401) installed on a floor surface; a columnar tower part (402) provided on the base seat (401); a first support (403) provided on the tower part (402) and capable of supporting a vertical first electric vacuum cleaner (100); and a second support (404) provided on the tower part (402) and capable of supporting a vertical second electric vacuum cleaner (200). An electric vacuum cleaner system 1 includes the charging base (400) configured as described above, the vertical first electric vacuum cleaner (100), and the vertical second electric vacuum cleaner (200).

A cleaning tray is provided for docking an extraction cleaner, including upright or robot extraction cleaners, for self-cleaning. The cleaning tray may include one or more sprayers for spraying a cleaning fluid toward a suction nozzle, brush chamber, and/or agitator of the extraction cleaner. Systems for self-cleaning extraction cleaners are also provided.

A handheld vacuum device is presented. That handheld vacuum device comprises a housing, a vacuum-generating system, and a hook. The housing has a handle, while the vacuum-generating system is disposed within the housing, and is configured to generate vacuum pressure that creates suction for the handheld vacuum device. The hook is coupled to the housing, and has a bent portion that is configured to engage an external structure for hanging the handheld vacuum device from the external structure.

A combination of a floor cleaner and a cleaning tray. At least a portion of a base of the floor cleaner is received by a reservoir of the cleaning tray. The floor cleaner further including an upright portion movable between an inclined use position and an upright storage position. The brushroll is powered by a brushroll motor. The brushroll motor includes a control circuit that controls the brushroll. The control circuit has a first switch that is open when the floor cleaner is in the upright position and closed when the floor cleaner is in the inclined use position. The second switch is in parallel with the first switch. The second switch is opened in response to the portion of the base being removed from the cleaning tray and the second switch is closed when the portion of the base is in the cleaning tray.

The present disclosure relates to a cleaner station including: a housing; a dust collecting motor configured to generate a suction force for sucking dust in a dust bin of a cleaner; a dust collecting part disposed at an upper side in a gravitational direction of the dust collecting motor; a coupling part including a coupling surface to which the cleaner is coupled; and a cover opening unit disposed on the coupling part and configured to open a discharge cover of the dust bin, such that the cover opening unit may automatically open the discharge cover of the dust bin without a user’s effort.

A debris collection base and a cleaning system. The debris collection base includes: a body including a first splicing end, a debris collection cavity spaced apart from the first splicing end, and a debris collection channel extending from the first splicing end to be in communication with the debris collection cavity; and a bearing seat module used for bearing a cleaning robot and including a second splicing end, a debris collection opening spaced apart from the second splicing end, and a debris inlet channel extending from the second splicing end to be in communication with the debris collection opening, the second splicing end being capable of being spliced with the first splicing end or separated from the first splicing end, and the debris inlet channel being in hermetical communication with the debris collection channel when the first splicing end is spliced with the second splicing end.

New and novel structure(s) and methods for cleaning, and/or mapping, and/or initiating cleaning and/or extending cleaning surfaces have been disclosed. Additionally, novel means and methods of combining two independent cleaning devices has been disclosed. Additionally, the capacities (vacuum force, battery capacity /debris storage) of one device may be increased by conjoining the two in various modes. As such, the invention at hand uniquely and inventively improves upon the known devices in this field.

The present disclosure relates to a cleaner system including: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.

A cleaning apparatus including a vacuum cleaner and a docking station is provided. The cleaning apparatus includes a vacuum cleaner including a dust collecting chamber in which foreign substances are collected, and a docking station configured to be connected to the dust collecting chamber to remove the foreign substances collected in the dust collecting chamber. The dust collecting chamber is configured to collect foreign substances through centrifugation, and configured to be docked to the docking station, and the docking station includes a suction device configured to suction the foreign substances and air in the dust collecting chamber docked to the docking station.
