Systems and methods for providing an air agitator nozzle system are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, the system comprises a vacuum and a nozzle. The vacuum is configured to suck particles from a floor surface. The nozzle is configured to spray air at the floor surface to loosen the particles and to push the loosened particles toward the vacuum to be sucked from the floor surface.

A surface cleaning apparatus has a cyclone chamber and a dirt collection chamber exterior to the cyclone chamber. The cyclone chamber has a sidewall extending from a first end to an axially opposed second end. A dirt outlet communicating with the dirt collection chamber is provided in the sidewall at a location intermediate the first and second ends of the cyclone chamber.

A dust remover for a vacuum cleaner, in which dust adhering to a plurality of filters having a cylindrical shape for filtering dust introduced into the vacuum cleaner is removed by repeatedly hitting an inner wall of each of the plurality of filters through rotation of a motor, includes a filter support plate having a plate shape; a plurality of filters arranged spaced apart from each other at regular intervals below the filter support plate in a circumferential direction; a hitting module rotatably provided on the filter support plate to extend to an inner space of each of the filters and configured to hit an inner surface of each of the filters; and a pressure control damper rotatably provided on the filter support plate and configured to optionally open/close a suction pressure of each of the filters.

A separation structure for a dust cup of a vacuum cleaner is provided and includes a cyclone separator. The cyclone separator is provided with a connecting ring, a plurality of arc blades, a plurality of flat plates, a conical tube and a cylindrical tube. Each arc blade has a top fixedly connected with the connecting ring and a bottom fixedly connected with a respective flat plate. The flat plates are fixedly mounted at a large end of the conical tube. A plurality of air inlets are formed by gaps defined by the connecting ring, the arc blades and the flat plates. The cylindrical tube is fixedly connected with and communicated with the conical tube. A small end of the conical tube is received in the cylindrical tube. An included angle between each arc blade and the respective flat plate is an obtuse angle.

A separation structure for a dust cup of a vacuum cleaner is provided and includes a main body and a separator. The separator is fixedly mounted in an internal space of the main body. The internal space of the main body is divided by the separator into a first chamber, a second chamber and a third chamber. The separator is provided with a through hole, an air intake portion and a plurality of sedimentation portions communicated with the air intake portion. The plurality of sedimentation portions are arranged around the air intake portion. A length of the air intake portion is smaller than a length of each of the plurality of sedimentation portions. The air intake portion is communicated with the second chamber, the plurality of sedimentation portions are communicated with the third chamber. The first chamber is communicated with the second chamber via the through hole.

A surface cleaning apparatus has a housing defining at least part of a cyclone chamber and a pre-motor filter chamber. In one embodiment, the housing is pivotally mounted to the main body of a hand vacuum cleaner. The housing is moveable between an in use position and an emptying position, in which the cyclone chamber and the pre-motor filter are concurrently openable.

A cleaner is disclosed, which comprises a main body including an suction inlet through which air containing dust enters, a dust separator provided to separate dust from the air while the air entering from the suction inlet is moving, a first dust collector configured to collect the dust separated by the dust separator, a cyclone portion configured to rotate the air to separate the dust from the air, and a second dust collector collecting the dust separated by the cyclone portion. The dust separator is provided with a plurality of plate shaped members arranged at a predetermined angle with respect to a moving direction of the air, and arranged to be spaced apart from one another to move the air.

A debris canister and filter assembly, which may be used in a vehicular vacuum cleaner, includes a debris canister having an inlet, an outlet, and a peripheral side wall. The peripheral side wall at least partially defines an interior space of the debris canister. A filter is disposed in the interior space of the debris canister, and includes filter media having a non-pleated portion and a pleated portion. The peripheral side wall forms a corner of the debris canister, and the filter media has a rounded-corner shaped to fit adjacent to the corner of the peripheral side wall.
