Surface cleaning apparatus
A surface cleaning apparatus having an upright assembly, a power source, and a coiled electrical cable. The upright assembly including a frame and a telescoping handle at last partially extending from the frame and movable between an extended position and a contracted position. The coiled electrical cable being provided within a portion of the telescoping handle and configured to uncoil or coil when the telescoping handle is moved between the extended position and the contracted position.
Surface cleaning apparatus with different cleaning configurations
A reconfigurable surface cleaning apparatus is provided.
Surface cleaning apparatus
A portable surface cleaning apparatus has a main body and air treatment member assembly is removably mounted to the main body. The air treatment member assembly air outlet and/or the suction motor inlet end is provided at the lower end of the air treatment member assembly when the surface cleaning apparatus is located on a floor and a pre-motor filter underlies the air treatment member assembly and/or the suction motor.
DUSTPAN ACCESSORY TOOL FOR VACUUM CLEANER
A vacuum cleaner includes a body movable over a surface to be cleaner, a suction source positioned in the body, and a suction port in fluid communication with the suction source. The body includes a plurality of feet. A dustpan attachment is removably coupled to the body. The dustpan attachment includes a housing having a recess and a vacuum port fluidly coupled to the suction port, and a pair of flanges extending from the housing. Each flange is removably coupled to a respective one of the plurality of feet. When each of the pair of flanges is coupled to a respective one of the plurality of feet, the recess cooperates with the surface to form a suction channel having a suction inlet formed in a front of the housing and opening forwardly, wherein the suction inlet is in fluid communication with the suction port.
Integrated vacuum for motor vehicle
A vehicle having an on-board vacuum includes an interior trim quarter side panel assembly disposed adjacent a third row of seats, and an on-board central vacuum system integrated into the interior trim quarter panel assembly. The interior trim quarter side panel assembly includes an outermost surface, an armrest portion positioned between an inboard sidewall and an outboard sidewall of the interior trim quarter panel assembly, and generally sloping toward an interior floor of the vehicle, and a handle pocket defining an opening in the armrest portion and a cavity below the outermost surface. The on-board central vacuum system includes a vacuum hose coupled to a vacuum motor assembly, and a vacuum nozzle handle coupled to the vacuum hose and nestingly received within the handle pocket such that in a stowed position within the handle pocket cavity, the vacuum nozzle handle is located at or below the outermost surface.
Accessories for a surface treatment apparatus having a plurality of operational states and surface treatment apparatus configured to actuate the same
A surface treatment apparatus may include a coupling, a handle, an accessory coupled to the coupling, and a toggle proximate the handle. The accessory may have at least two operational states. An actuation of the toggle may cause the accessory to transition between operational states.
DEBRIS BIN
A debris bin includes a box body, a debris suction opening, and a debris outlet opening. The box body has an inner cavity. The debris suction opening is defined on the box body and communicates with the inner cavity of the box body. The debris outlet opening is defined on the box body and communicates with the inner cavity of the box body. The inner cavity is provided with a supporting surface for supporting debris. The supporting surface is inclined, and a top edge of the supporting surface and a bottom edge of the supporting surface are arranged parallel to each other and horizontally. The debris outlet opening is located at a side of the bottom edge of the supporting surface.
SURFACE CLEANING APPARATUS
A portable surface cleaning apparatus has a main body and air treatment member assembly is removably mounted to the main body. The air treatment member assembly air outlet and/or the suction motor inlet end is provided at the lower end of the air treatment member assembly when the surface cleaning apparatus is located on a floor and a pre-motor filter underlies the air treatment member assembly and/or the suction motor.
VACUUM CLEANER PROVIDING HANDS-FREE CONNECTION AND DISCONNECTION OF A NOZZLE ASSEMBLY FROM A WAND ASSEMBLY
A vacuum cleaner is provided. The vacuum cleaner includes a housing. A cavity is provided in the housing. A nozzle assembly is received in that cavity. A cover conceals the nozzle assembly in the cavity when the cover is in a closed position and allows access to the nozzle assembly when in an opened position. A nozzle support holds the nozzle assembly in the cavity. The nozzle support is displaceable between a nozzle storage position when the cover is in the closed position and a nozzle presentation position when the cover is in an opened position.
Surface cleaning apparatus
A portable surface cleaning apparatus for a floor surface includes a main housing assembly adapted to be hand carried by a user, the main housing assembly carrying a fluid delivery system adapted for storing cleaning fluid and delivering the cleaning fluid to the surface to be cleaned, and a fluid recovery system adapted for removing the cleaning fluid and debris from the surface to be cleaned and storing the cleaning fluid and debris that was recovered, the main housing assembly comprising a base housing, a supply tank received on the main housing assembly, a recovery tank received on the main housing assembly separately from the supply tank.
