A handheld air purifier may include a suction body provided with a fan to suction air and a filter to filter foreign matter from the sucked air, a handle extending from the suction body, and an agitator provided in the suction body to loosen or scatter dust from a garment. The handheld air purifier may be configured to be attached to and detached from a main air purifier, and the main air purifier may suction dust off the handheld air purifier and sterilize the handheld air purifier when the handheld air purifier is mounted on the main air purifier. The agitator of the handheld air purifier may have a striking member exposed through a lower surface of the suction body, and may move out of and into the suction body to strike the garment so that the dust may be loosened and suctioned into the suction body and filtered by the filter.

A cleaner is provided. The cleaner includes a transfer device, and a dust collecting apparatus connectable to the transfer device and configured to filter out rubbish transferred from the transfer device. The dust collecting apparatus includes a housing in which a first dust chamber is formed, and including a guide recessed inwardly from an outer surface, a handle configured to be movable on the outside of the housing and provided to cover at least a portion of the guide, a first rubbish removal member configured to be movable inside the housing based on the movement of the handle, and configured to discharge rubbish collected in the first dust chamber, and a link configured to connect the handle to the first rubbish removal member, and having a movement guided by the guide.

A cleaning apparatus may include a vacuum cleaner with a dust collecting chamber; and a dust collecting station that is connectable to the vacuum cleaner through a seating portion with an opening in the front of the dust collecting station so. A controller is configured to, when the dust collecting chamber is seated on the seating portion, control a driving device to open the dust collecting chamber so that the opening of the seating portion communicates with the dust collecting chamber opening, and control a suction device to suction foreign substances in the dust collecting chamber through the dust collecting chamber opening, and the opening of the seating portion, and into a dust bag in the dust collecting station. A panel at the front of the dust collecting station may be opened to provide an opening at the front of the dust collecting station through which the dust bag is withdrawable.

Disclosed is a device for reducing a user-sensed weight of a wireless vacuum cleaner including a suctioning pipe and a suction motor disposed on a top of the suctioning pipe, the device comprising: a case disposed adjacent to the suction motor and having a space defined therein, and a rotatable assembly received in the space, wherein the rotatable assembly receives therein a motor and a battery, wherein the rotatable assembly is configured to rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise when the motor is activated.

A vacuum cleaner comprises a housing having a longitudinal axis. A motor-fan assembly is mounted in the housing and arranged to generate an airflow along an airflow path from a dirty air inlet to an air exhaust. A retractable nozzle defines the dirty air inlet and is moveably mounted on the housing. At least a portion of the retractable nozzle is arranged to move between a retracted configuration within the housing and a deployed configuration outside the housing. The portion of the retractable nozzle in the retracted configuration is aligned in a direction along the longitudinal axis and the portion of the retractable nozzle in the deployed configuration is aligned in a direction across the longitudinal axis.

A vacuum cleaner and suction nozzle thereof. The vacuum cleaner has a housing, dust collecting unit, filter assembly, motor assembly and roller brush. The suction nozzle has a bottom housing, front cover and roller brush. The housing includes a concave cavity; the bottom housing and the front cover latch together to form a chamber; the roller brush assembly and the separation piece fit into this chamber; the separation piece corresponds to a transmission component of the roller brush. When rotating at high speed, the roller brush forms a seamless and closed separation face with the separation piece, preventing foreign matter from entering the transmission component, thus avoiding reduced suction and damage due to a tangled synchronous belt or a shaft jamming a roller brush bearing.

A brushroll for a surface cleaning apparatus includes a brush dowel defining a central rotational axis which extends longitudinally through the brush dowel. The brush dowel includes bristle supports, sweeper supports, and a shroud surface extending between the bristle supports and the sweeper supports. A plurality of bristles protrude from the bristle supports.

A cleaning system including a motor, a battery receptacle, and a motor controller. The battery receptacle is configured to receive a battery pack. The battery pack includes one or more battery cells and a battery controller. The motor controller is configured to receive from the battery controller at least one selected from the group consisting of a first signal indicative of a first characteristic of the battery pack and a second signal indicative of a second characteristic of the battery pack. The motor controller is further configured to operate the motor at a defined speed, the defined speed being a first speed upon receiving the first signal and a second speed upon receiving the second signal. Wherein the first characteristic and the second characteristic are at least one selected from the group consisting of a capacity, a current, and a resistance.
