A cleaner includes: a suction motor that generates suction force; a dust separation unit that is disposed behind the suction motor and separates dust from air sucked by the suction force of the suction motor; a dust container that stores dust separated by the dust separation unit; a handle disposed behind the dust separation unit; a battery housing disposed under the handle; and a battery that is detachably coupled to the battery housing and is separable downward from the battery housing.

A vacuum cleaner including: a suctioning unit; a main body including a cyclone part for separating dust from suctioned air and a dust container for storing the separated dust, and a body cover for opening and closing the lower side of the body; a filter unit, disposed in the body, for filtering air separated from the dust; an actuating unit capable of moving in the body between the outside of the filter unit and the inner circumference surface of the body; an operating unit disposed outside the body which operates in order to move the actuating unit; a transmission unit penetrating the body and connecting the actuating unit with the operating unit; and an elastic member disposed outside the body which elastically supports the operating unit.

Provided is a vacuum cleaner including a base configured to form a lower surface of a cleaner body; moving wheels provided at both side surfaces of the cleaner body and rotated for travel of the vacuum cleaner and also configured to support the cleaner body to be rotated in normal and reverse directions; and a dust container installed at a front of the moving wheels and configured to collect suctioned dust, wherein the base includes a center portion; a first half portion configured to extend to be inclined upward from a front end of the center portion; and a second half portion configured to extend to be inclined upward from a rear end of the center portion, and a rotating center of the moving wheels is located between the first half portion and the second half portion.

A vacuum cleaner that includes: a cleaner body; a wheel; a dust container; a cover member that is configured to (i) rotate, about an axis that is outside of a plane of the cover member, between a first position and a second position and (ii) cover, based on the cover member being located at the first position or the second position, the first opening of the cleaner body and a portion of the dust container; a cover member coupling portion that couples the cover member to the cleaner body and that is configured to rotate about the second axis with the cover member; a suction nozzle that is coupled to the dust container and that is configured to guide dust into the dust container; and a display that is coupled to the cover member and that is configured to display operating information of the vacuum cleaner is disclosed.

Provided is a vacuum cleaner including a cleaner body; a moving wheel provided at each of both side surfaces of the cleaner body, rotated for travelling of the vacuum cleaner and configured to support the cleaner body to be rotatable in normal and reverse directions; a wheel motor assembly connected to the moving wheel and configured to rotate the moving wheel for the travelling of the vacuum cleaner; a main motor provided inside the cleaner body, located at a rear side further than a vertical extension line of a rotating center of the moving wheel and driven to suction dust; and a battery provided inside the cleaner body, located at the rear side further than the vertical extension line of the rotating center of the moving wheel and configured to provide electric power to the main motor and the wheel motor assembly, wherein a center of gravity of the cleaner body is located at a rear of the vertical extension line of the rotating center of the moving wheel due to an arrangement of the main motor and the battery.

A cyclone module for a vacuum cleaner includes a primary separator, a bulk collection chamber, at least one secondary separator, and a fines collection chamber. First and second doors are provided for closing debris outlets at the bottom ends of the bulk and fines collection chambers, respectively. The fines collection chamber is elevated within the bulk collection chamber, with the second door spaced above the first door.

A cleaner includes: a suction motor that generates suction force; a dust separation unit disposed under the suction motor and separates dust from air; a handle disposed behind the suction motor; and a battery disposed under the handle and behind the dust separation unit to supply power to the suction motor.

A hand vacuum cleaner may have an air treatment member and a pre-motor filter downstream from the air treatment member. A suction motor and fan assembly may be is positioned downstream of and below the pre-motor filter, a post motor filter may be positioned downstream of the suction motor and fan assembly and in the lower end of the hand vacuum cleaner. A clean air outlet may be positioned below the suction motor and fan assembly whereby air travels downwardly from the suction motor and fan assembly and through the post motor filter to the clean air outlet.

A hand vacuum cleaner may include a suction motor and fan assembly that is positioned downstream of a pre-motor filter and in an upper end of the hand vacuum cleaner. A post motor filter may be positioned downstream of the suction motor and fan assembly and may be in the lower end of the hand vacuum cleaner. The clean air outlet may be positioned below the suction motor and fan assembly whereby air may travel generally downwardly from the suction motor and fan assembly and through the post motor filter to the clean air outlet.

A vacuum cleaner comprising a dirty air intake and a cyclonic separating apparatus connected in series. The cyclonic separating apparatus comprises a plurality of cyclonic separators connected in parallel. The vacuum cleaner further comprises a bleed valve provided upstream of the plurality of cyclonic separators. The bleed valve opens to admit bled air into the plurality of cyclonic separators in response to a drop in pressure in the vacuum cleaner. The bleed valve is also connected to the inlets of the plurality of cyclonic separators via a common plenum.
