A surface cleaning apparatus including an air flow path extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet, a main body comprising a handle, a suction motor and fan assembly that is positioned in the air flow path, and an air treatment member removably mounted to the main body. The air treatment member has an air treatment chamber that is positioned in the air flow path when the air treatment member is mounted to the main body and a cleaning tool electrical connector. When a cleaning tool is connected to the air treatment member, the cleaning tool is connected in air flow communication with the air treatment member and the cleaning tool is electrically connected to the air treatment member.

A hand vacuum cleaner comprises a main body has a driving handle and houses a suction motor and fan assembly, the suction motor and fan assembly having a suction motor axis of rotation wherein the driving handle has a hand grip portion that extends upwardly and forwardly when the hand vacuum cleaner is oriented with the upper end above the lower end. An air treatment member has a dirt collection region having an openable door provided on a front end of the air treatment member.

A hand vacuum cleaner has an air flow path extending from a dirty air inlet provided at a front end of the hand vacuum cleaner to a clean air outlet, a main body housing a suction motor, and an air treatment member that is moveably mounted to the main body between an operating position and an emptying position. The hand vacuum cleaner also includes a post-motor filter housing, wherein a post-motor-filter is removably receivable in the post-motor filter housing, and wherein moving the air treatment member to the emptying position enables access to the post-motor-filter.

Methods and apparatus for cleaning a surface with a cleaning device having a body with a handle, a connector, and one or more cleaning heads that are removably attached to the cleaning device. Each cleaning head include a lower surface arranged to contact a surface to be cleaned and a dirt collection chamber permanently attached to the cleaning head. The cleaning head may include a support structure to support the dirt collection chamber and a cleaning sheet. The cleaning head also may include a suction nozzle. At least a portion of the dirt collection chamber may be made of a filter material.

A cleaner for collecting dust is provided. The cleaner includes a suction head, a dust collector having a first end mounted on the suction head and including a first dust collecting chamber, an extension member slidably mounted on the dust collector at the other end opposite to the first end of the dust collector, and a first dirt removing member disposed at one end of the extension member and having elasticity.

A hand vacuum cleaner having a main body and a cyclonic air treatment stage wherein the pre-motor filter has an outer perimeter defining a volume and the cyclone axis and the motor axis each extend through a central portion of the volume and wherein the post-motor filter has a curved outer perimeter that defines a volume, the volume has a radially inner central portion and the cyclone axis and the motor axis each extend through the central portion of the volume.

The present disclosure discloses a cleaning base station. The cleaning base station includes a base and a vibration device. The vibration device includes a driving mechanism and a cleaning element. The driving mechanism is fixed to the base. The cleaning element is connected to the driving mechanism. The cleaning element is configured to contact a part-to-be-cleaned of a cleaning robot. The driving mechanism drives the cleaning element to vibrate so as to clean the part-to-be-cleaned of the cleaning robot. The present disclosure also discloses a cleaning robot system using the cleaning base station described above. The present disclosure has the advantages of reducing a user's burden of manual cleaning and avoiding contamination of a floor surface by the part-to-be-cleaned of the cleaning robot.

A dust bin and a vacuum cleaner combination provided with the dust bin are provided. The dust bin includes a dust chamber, a dust inlet detachably connected to a dust suction apparatus, and a sealing structure for implementing the sealing between the dust suction apparatus and the dust bin. The dust suction apparatus has a dust outlet joined to the dust inlet. The vacuum cleaner combination includes a dust suction apparatus and a dust bin detachably connected to the dust suction apparatus. The dust suction apparatus has a housing and a dust cup assembly connected to the housing. The dust cup assembly includes a cup body and a filter apparatus disposed in the cup body. Compared with the prior art, in the present invention, a detachable multi-purpose dust bin with a simple structure is disposed, so that the dust collection chamber of the vacuum cleaner is flexibly increased.

A surface cleaning apparatus comprises an air treatment chamber having a first end comprising a first end wall, an axially spaced apart second end comprising a second end wall, a sidewall extending between the first and second end walls, an air treatment chamber air inlet and an air treatment chamber air outlet provided at the second end. A dirt collection region, which is contiguous with the air treatment chamber, is positioned axially from the first and second end walls and is closer to the second end wall than the first end wall.

This document describes a mobile cleaning robot including a chassis having a forward portion and an aft portion; a blower affixed to the chassis; a bin supported by the chassis and configured to receive airflow from the blower, the chassis enabling evacuation of the bin through a bottom of the robot. The bin includes a top, a bottom, a sidewall, and an internal barrier. The bin includes a first volume and a second volume separated by the internal barrier and a filter unit supported by the internal barrier and removably disposed in an airflow path between the first volume that includes an intake port in the bin and the second volume that includes an exhaust port in the bin.
