An electric blower includes a motor unit, a shaft, a centrifugal impeller, a fan cover, a motor unit case, and a bracket located away from centrifugal impeller and toward motor unit in a direction in which a central axis of the shaft extends. The bracket includes a first portion located outward of the vent in a radial direction, and a second portion located outward of the first portion and outward of an outer circumference of the motor unit case in the radial direction. A first airflow passage and a second airflow passage are formed in the bracket, the first and second airflow passages communicate with an airflow passage formed by the centrifugal impeller and the fan cover.

A cyclone unit is for separating liquid and particles from a suction flow. A main flow inlet to the outer housing of the cyclone unit includes an opening. The transition between the main flow inlet and the outer housing at this opening has, at least for a portion of the opening, a radius of curvature of at least 0.5 mm. The large radius of curvature prevents the formation of static water drops.

A wet vacuum cleaner uses a cyclone unit for separating liquid and particles from a suction flow. A main flow inlet to a cyclone chamber is spaced internally from its respective end by a separation distance. The separation distance is at least 0.1 times (effective/equivalent) diameter of the main flow inlet, which assists in preventing formation of large droplets which follows a path to a main flow outlet.

A vacuum cleaner including a motor, a suction opening, an exhaust opening, and an air passageway in fluid communication with the suction source and the exhaust opening. The motor receives power from a power cord that enters the lower portion of the main body through a power cord opening. The main body also includes a drain opening, configured to allow egress of any liquid in the main body. The power cord opening is higher than the drain opening. The vacuum also includes a protective tubular frame that surrounds the battery. The tubular frame is energy-absorbing, and is removable and replaceable.

A surface cleaning apparatus having a fluid delivery system and a fluid recovery system is provided with a housing including an upright body and a base coupled with the upright body. Cleaning fluid and electrical wiring can be routed between the upright body and the base via a yoked spine section of the upright body.

A portable cleaner has a recovery tank, including a container for receiving and storing recovered liquid and/or dirt and an openable tank lid for covering the container. The container and the tank lid are removable from the cleaner as a unit. The portable cleaner also has a main housing configured to removably support the recovery tank in a vertical orientation in which the tank lid at least partially defines a top side of the portable extraction cleaner. In addition, a tank latch is provided in the tank lid, the tank latch configured to selectively secure and release the tank lid to the main housing when the recovery tank is supported by the main housing.

A cleaner head for a cleaning appliance including an agitator rotatable about an axis; a housing having a front side, a rear side, and first and second sides which extend between the front and rear sides, said housing defining a chamber which at least partially surrounds the agitator, the chamber having a dirty air inlet and a dirty air outlet; and a spray nozzle device for spraying cleaning fluid onto the agitator in a direction towards the rear side of the housing, said spray nozzle device being fluidly connectable to a cleaning fluid supply tank of a cleaning apparatus.

A portable debris removal system cleans debris and fluids from newly machined parts generally includes an enclosure assembly where a user cleans a machined part with a compressed air gun. The air within the enclosure assembly is evacuated for decontamination through a series of filters with remaining contaminates collected in a waste vessel. Ambient air and air gun expressed compressed air are drawn into the system via the Venturi effect created by a Venturi vent positioned on the bottom of the enclosure assembly.

A portable cleaner has a recovery tank, including a container for receiving and storing recovered liquid and/or dirt and an openable tank lid for covering the container. The container and the tank lid are removable from the cleaner as a unit. The portable cleaner also has a main housing configured to removably support the recovery tank in a vertical orientation in which the tank lid at least partially defines a top side of the portable cleaner. In addition, a tank latch is provided in the tank lid, the tank latch configured to selectively secure and release the tank lid to the main housing when the recovery tank is supported by the main housing.

An electric work machine includes a motor, a first connector, a second connector, an energizing circuit, a manual switch, and a controller. The controller electrically disconnects the first connector from the motor based on a first voltage value below a first threshold at a start of motor rotation. The controller maintains an electrical connection of the first connector to the motor based on the first voltage value below the first threshold and equal to or greater than a second threshold during discharge of the first battery.
