A cleaning device comprises: a housing having a dust collection chamber; a main body, moveable with respect to the housing, to be coupled to the housing and to be decoupled from the housing, the main body includes a handle; a fixing device, arrangeable in the main body, to couple the main body to the housing to the housing while the main body is moved to a first position with respect to the housing and to decouple the main body from the housing while the main body is moved to a second position with respect to the housing; and a releasing button arrangeable with respect to the main body, and connectable to the fixing device by a wire so that while the release button is connected to the fixing device, the release button is useable to operate the fixing device.

Described herein is a vacuum device. In various embodiments, the vacuum device includes a vacuum housing; a motor housing coupled to the vacuum housing; a motor disposed in the motor housing and configured to apply suction toward the vacuum housing; an inlet nozzle releasably coupled to a side of the vacuum housing and configured to receive a waste material; and a disposable vacuum bag disposed in the vacuum housing and configured to receive the waste material that passes through the inlet nozzle.

The present disclosure provides, in one aspect, a debris collection device for an autonomous cleaning robot includes a cleaning pad portion configured to contact a floor surface. The cleaning pad portion includes a backing and at least one cleaning pad connected to a bottom surface of the backing. The autonomous cleaning robot includes a vacuum bag portion configured to collect at least a portion of debris removed from the floor surface by a vacuum assembly of the autonomous cleaning robot. A volume of the vacuum bag portion is positioned vertically above the cleaning pad portion.

A reconfigurable surface treatment apparatus may include a wand and a pod removably coupled to the wand. The wand may have a first distal end that is configured to couple to a surface cleaning head and a second distal end that is configured to couple to a handle. The pod may include a suction motor assembly cavity, a battery cavity, and a dust cup cavity. The suction motor assembly cavity and the battery cavity may be disposed on opposing sides of a vertical plane, wherein the vertical plane extends along a central longitudinal axis of the pod. The dust cup cavity may be disposed between the suction motor assembly cavity and the battery cavity such that at least a portion of the dust cup cavity is disposed on each side of the vertical plane.

A suction apparatus includes a housing, at least one cyclone chamber, a collection container configured to as to be releasably connectable to the housing, and having a filter element. The suction apparatus further includes at least one positioning device within the cyclone chamber and configured for positioning at least one collection element within the cyclone chamber.

This invention relates to a bagged vacuum cleaner, i.e. to a vacuum cleaner in which dirt and debris is collected in a disposable bag. The vacuum cleaner (10) has a body (12), the body having a dirt-collection chamber (26), a motor (14) and an impeller (16). The body also has an inlet duct (30) upstream of the dirt-collection chamber, the inlet duct being connected to an inlet tube (36) adapted to fit to an opening of the disposable bag. A wall (40) of the inlet duct adjacent to the inlet tube (36) is transparent so that a user can look through the wall and into the inlet tube to observe whether or not the bag is full.

A vacuum cleaner has a vacuum cleaner bag having two layers made of filter material, which are joined together on at least three sides to form an inner chamber. An inflow opening is formed on a fourth side between the two layers, at least in regions, into which a connector for connecting to a vacuum cleaner can be inserted.

A pool cleaner comprises a housing including at least two wheels, a supply mast, and a timer disc assembly configured to receive water from the supply mast. The timer disc assembly includes an outer housing, a plurality of outlet ports extending through the outer housing, and a rotating timer disc positioned within the outer housing adjacent to the plurality of outlet ports. The timer disc assembly also includes at least one stationary port seal liner positioned between one of the plurality of outlet ports and the rotating timer disc. The at least one stationary port seal liner includes an elastomeric piece and a liner piece, and the liner piece is in contact with the rotating timer disc.

The present invention relates to a blowing-suction device. The blowing-suction device includes: a housing, having a first opening connected to the outside; an air tube, connected to the housing; an air flow generation apparatus that operably generates an air flow, where when the blowing-suction device is in the blowing mode, the air flow is blown out from the air tube, or when the blowing-suction device is in the suction mode, the air flow is sucked from the air tube; and a collection apparatus, configured to collect an object sucked by the blowing-suction device in the suction mode, where the collection apparatus is connected to the first opening both in the blowing mode and in the suction mode, and the collection apparatus further includes an air admission portion, and in the blowing mode, the air admission portion is open; or in the suction mode, the air admission portion is closed.
