An arm member extends from the inlet conduit linearly rearwardly to the upper end of the pistol grip handle. A housing is provided at a lower end of the pistol grip handle. All operating components of the hand vacuum cleaner are located between a lower end of the housing and the inlet conduit.

A vacuum cyclonic separator that includes: a main body having a top surface with an air outlet, a bottom perimeter defining a bottom aperture of the main body, at least two downwardly facing air inlets and at least one side wall extending between the top surface and the bottom portion and shaped such that air received within an interior cavity of main body moves in a cyclone and wherein the at least two downwardly facing air inlets are in at least substantially the same plane as the bottom perimeter of the main body; and a dump valve assembly capable of being opened and closed with one hand where the dump valve is engaged with the bottom portion to seal the bottom aperture of the main body.

A hand vacuum cleaner has a first air treatment stage comprising a first stage air treatment chamber and a first stage longitudinal axis extending between the front and rear ends of the first air treatment stage and a second air treatment stage downstream from the first stage air treatment chamber, the second air treatment stage a second stage air treatment chamber and a second stage dirt collection chamber that is exterior to the second stage air treatment chamber. The second stage dirt collection chamber extends forward of the second stage air treatment chamber. A plane that is transverse to the first stage longitudinal axis extends through the first stage air treatment chamber and the second stage dirt collection chamber, and the first stage air treatment chamber and the second stage dirt collection chamber are concurrently openable.

A hand vacuum cleaner has a main body housing a suction motor, the suction motor having a suction motor axis of rotation. A cyclone assembly is removably mounted to the main body. The cyclone assembly comprises a first cyclonic stage and a second cyclonic stage. The first cyclonic stage comprises a first stage cyclone, and the second cyclonic stage comprises a plurality of cyclones in parallel. The first cyclonic stage is provided at a front end of the hand vacuum cleaner, the second cyclonic stage is positioned rearward of the first cyclonic stage, and the suction motor is positioned rearward of the second cyclonic stage. The first stage cyclone axis of rotation, the second stage cyclone axes of rotation and the suction motor axis of rotation are parallel. The first stage cyclone axis of rotation extends through the second cyclonic stage and the suction motor.

A robot cleaner capable of extending the service life of a filter by including a cyclone unit is provided. The robot cleaner includes a main body including wheels configured to rotate about a rotation axis, a brush device provided in the main body to draw in air containing dust, a first chamber, through which the air drawn in through the brush device is introduced, configured to change a traveling direction of the introduced air, and a second chamber connected to the first chamber and including a dust separator separating dust contained in air, and arranged side by side with the first chamber in a direction in which the rotation axis extends.

A surface cleaning apparatus or a docking station for a surface cleaning apparatus comprises a housing body has air flow path extending from an air inlet of the housing body to an air outlet of the housing body and, a non-cyclonic momentum separator positioned in the housing body wherein a portion of the momentum separator is spaced from the housing body wherein a chamber is provided exterior to the momentum separator and within the housing body. An air flow conduit extends from the air inlet of the housing body to an air inlet of the momentum separator, and the air flow conduit extends through the chamber. A portion of the momentum separator that is spaced from the housing body comprises at least two sides of the momentum separator, and the at least two sides of the momentum separator are porous and comprise an air outlet of the momentum separator.

A dust-collecting device includes a cylindrical casing and an insertion part. The casing includes an introduction port introducing dust-containing air. The insertion part is positioned inside the casing to allow a swirling flow of the dust-containing air to be formed between the insertion part and the casing. The insertion part includes a cylindrical side surface part spaced away from and facing the casing and a projection part. The projection part includes, in a side of the first dust-collecting part, a projection surface projecting outward from the side surface part. The projection surface includes plural straightening parts and a connection part. The straightening parts are formed spirally toward the side of the first dust-collecting part, from upstream to downstream sides of the swirling flow. The connection part connects a downstream end side of one of the straightening parts and an upstream end side of another one of the straightening parts.

A working trolley with built-in dust suction system includes a dust suction system and a trolley. Through directly assembling the dust suction system with the trolley, useless structures in the dust suction system is eliminated, so that the dust suction system can be assembled with the trolley with a more simplified structure. Through directly assembling the dust suction system with the trolley, the trolley breaks the old and stereotyped way of using, and the trolley is no longer just a carrying tool of a vacuum cleaner, thereby greatly increasing the effectiveness of usage of the trolley. On the other hand, the present invention enables a dust storage bucket of the dust suction system to have a feature of being independently dismountable, so that an operator does not need to dismount other components when replacing the dust storage bucket, thereby facilitating operation for the operator.

A vacuum cleaner includes a suctioning unit, a main body including a cyclone unit for separating dust from the air suctioned through the suctioning unit, a body forming a dust container for storing the dust separated by the cyclone unit, and a body cover for opening and closing the lower side of the body. A filter unit is arranged in the body for filtering air. An actuating unit is configured to move in the body along a space between the outside of the filter unit and the inner circumferential surface of the body.
