There is provided a robot cleaner having an improved dust-collecting capability and an improved suction force and capable of being manufactured in a small size. The robot cleaner includes a main body comprising a fan motor and having a suction port provided in one side thereof; a plurality of cyclone units configured to separate foreign substances in air suctioned through the suction port; and a plurality of suction flow paths connecting the plurality of cyclone units and the suction port.

A cleaner comprises a cleaner main body, a first main body formed in a spherical shape and a second main body protruding from the front of the first main body such that the width at a second point located forward of a first point is smaller than the width at the first point.

A vacuum cleaner includes: a cleaner body including a battery chamber; a motor provided in the cleaner body to provide suction force; a battery detachably mounted in the battery chamber to provide electric power to the motor; a battery cover rotatably mounted in the cleaner body to open and close the battery chamber; and a charging stand on which the cleaner body is held and which includes an opening prevention rib located on a rotation path of the battery cover in a state in which the cleaner body is held on the opening prevention rib and preventing opening of the battery cover.

An upright vacuum cleaner (1) includes a brushroll (11); a motor assembly (200) including a motor housing (21) and a motor (22), in which a rotating axis of the motor (22) and a rotating axis of the brushroll (11) are disposed in a non-parallel manner, and the motor (22) drives the brushroll (11) rolling by a drive belt (13) and is rotatable between a first upright position of tensioning the drive belt (13) and a first oblique position of loosening the drive belt (13); a body assembly (300) including a body (31), a bridging member (32) and a dirt cup (37) mounted on the body (31), in which the bridging member (32) is rotatably connected with the motor housing (21) to make the body (31) rotatable between a second upright position and a second oblique position, and the motor (22) is moved by the bridging member (32) from the first oblique position to the first upright position when the body (31) moves from the second upright position to the second oblique position.

A vacuum cleaner may include a cleaner body having a suction motor and a suctioning portion configured to be in communication with the cleaner body and to suction air and dust. One of a battery assembly having a battery or a cord reel assembly having a power cord may be installed in the cleaner body. The vacuum cleaner may also include a controller to control the suction motor by modifying a pulse width modulation (PWM) duty cycle of an inverter providing power to the suction motor based on whether the battery assembly or the cord reel assembly is installed in the cleaner body.

Provided is a vacuum cleaner separating and collecting dust, or the like, using a multi-cyclone and mesh filter. The vacuum cleaner includes a cleaning unit sweeping dust and foreign objects clinging on the mesh filter down along an outer circumferential surface of the mesh filter and a rotary unit coupled to the mesh filter and relatively rotating the mesh filter with respect to the cleaning unit. Since the cleaning unit automatically/manually cleans a surface of the filter during an operation of the cleaner, the surface of the filter may be maintained to be clean and a load applied to a fan unit due to a foreign object or dust may be reduced.

The present disclosure relates to a vacuum cleaner for separating and collecting dust and other contaminants by using a multi-cyclone and a mesh filter, including a cleaning unit for sweeping dust and foreign materials attached to the mesh filter along an outer circumferential surface of the mesh filter, and a rotation unit coupled to the cleaning unit for rotating the cleaning unit relative to the mesh filter, whereby the cleaning unit can clean a surface of the filter automatically or manually during an operation of the cleaner, so that the filter surface can be kept clean, and a load on a fan unit caused due to foreign materials or dust can be reduced.

A vertical vacuum cleaner (1) is provided, including a brushroll (22); a motor assembly (200) including a motor housing (21) and a motor (22), in which the motor (22) is configured to drive the brushroll (22) to roll via a drive belt (13) and is rotatable between a first upright position where the drive belt (13) is tensioned and a first oblique position where the drive belt (13) is loosened; a body assembly (300) including a body (31) and a bridging member (32) rotatably connected with the motor housing (21); a lever driving device rotatably disposed to the motor housing (21) and having two ends respectively fitted with the bridging member (32) and the motor (22), in which the bridging member (32) is configured to drive the motor (22) to move from the first oblique position to the first upright position via the lever driving device.

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 cleaner includes: a suction motor that generates suction force; a dust separation unit that separates dust from air sucked by the suction force; a motor housing that covers the suction motor; a flow guide that surrounds an outer side of the motor housing and guides air discharged from the dust separation unit to the suction motor; and a body that forms an external appearance by surrounding the flow guide and guides air discharged from the suction motor together with the flow guide.
