A product that includes a compressor, a housing and a vibration isolation mount located between the compressor and the housing. The compressor includes an impeller, a first inlet located upstream of the impeller, a first outlet located downstream of the impeller, a second inlet located downstream of the first outlet, and a second outlet located downstream of the second inlet. During operation, fluid enters the compressor via the first inlet and exits the compressor via the first outlet. The mount creates a restriction between the compressor and the housing that causes fluid exiting the first outlet to re-enter the compressor via the second inlet.

A fan motor for a vacuum cleaner includes a motor mount defining a cooling flow path inlet, an impeller, an impeller cover defining an air inlet, an air discharge opening defined at the motor mount and configured to discharge air to an outer space of the motor mount, and a cooling flow path outlet defined vertically above the motor mount. The cooling flow path inlet is configured to introduce air from the outer space of the motor mount into an inner space of the motor mount to cool the motor part, and the cooling flow path outlet is configured to discharge air from the inner space of the motor mount toward a space that is defined between the impeller and the air discharge opening based on the space between the impeller and the air discharge opening having a lower pressure than the inner space of the motor mount.

A vacuum cleaner, includes a dirty air inlet, a clean air outlet and an air channel arranged between the dirty air inlet and the clean air outlet. A vacuum generator is arranged inside the air channel. A first filter is arranged in the upper reach of the vacuum generator. A second filter is arranged in the upper reach of the first filter. The vacuum cleaner further comprises a state sensor. When in a second state, the first filter and the second filter are not combined, and the state sensor is not triggered. Missing mounting prevention detection of a main filter and a pre-filter can be realised at the same time by means of a micro-control switch, thereby saving on cost.

A surface treatment apparatus may include an air flow path extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet and a main body. A suction motor may be provided in the air flow path. A cyclone bin assembly may be provided in the air flow path and may be removably mountable to the main body. A pre-motor filter chamber may be provided and may have a rear wall, a sidewall extending and an openable front wall opposite the rear wall and sealingly enclosing the pre-motor filter chamber. The pre-motor filter chamber may be disposed longitudinally between the cyclone bin assembly and the suction motor and the cyclone bin assembly may be positioned in front of at least a portion of the openable front wall of the pre-motor filter chamber. The front wall may be accessible when the cyclone bin assembly is removed from the main body.

A cleaner includes a dust bin, a motor housing disposed above and coupled to the dust bin, a handle coupled to the motor housing, a cyclone part disposed in the dust bin and configured to separate dust from air, a filter disposed in the dust bin and configured to filter air having separated the dust through the cyclone part, and a compression part configured to compress the dust in the dust bin. The compression part includes an operating part disposed in the motor housing and configured to move in a space between an outer portion of the filter part and an inner circumferential surface of the dust bin, a manipulation part disposed outside the motor housing and configured to be manipulated to move the operating part, and a transmission part that is disposed in the motor housing and connects the operating part and the manipulation part.

A hand vacuum cleaner has a cyclonic stage which comprises a stationary portion and an openable portion. The openable portion is rotatably mounted by a rotatable mount between a closed position in which a cyclone chamber is closed and an open position in which the cyclone chamber is open. The stationary portion comprises an upper portion of the first cyclonic stage and the openable portion comprises a lower portion of the first cyclonic stage. The rotatable mount is located at a rearward end of the openable portion.
