A dust collector for a vacuum cleaner disclosed herein includes an outer case forming a lateral appearance of the dust collector, and provided with a first cyclone unit capable of filtering out dust from externally-introduced air and allowing an introduction of the dust-filtered air therein, and an upper case coupled to an upper portion of the outer case to cover the first cyclone unit, the outer case including a second cyclone unit capable of separating fine dust from the air introduced into the first cyclone unit, and a fine dust collecting unit capable of collecting the fine dust separated through the second cyclone unit, wherein the second cyclone unit includes a left cyclone portion and a right cyclone portion disposed at both left and right sides of the fine dust collecting unit and each having outlets, each of the outlets communicating with an inside of the fine dust collecting unit.

A dust cup assembly (100) and a handheld cleaner (1000) having the same are provided. The dust cup assembly (100) includes: a cup casing (1); a device housing (2) configured as a tube shape and disposed in the cup casing (1), wherein an outer end face of the device housing (2) at an axial side thereof abuts against or extends beyond a partial inner surface of the cup casing (1), and a dust removal chamber (A1) is defined between an inner surface of the cup casing (1) and an outer peripheral surface of the device housing (2) and surrounds the device housing (2) along a circumferential direction of the device housing (2); and a negative pressure device (3) located within the device housing (2) and enabling dusty air to enter the dust removal chamber (A1) for dust and air separation.

An upright vacuum cleaner has a handle by which it can be manoeuvred across a floor in a floor cleaning mode, the handle being part of a releasable suction wand which can be used in an above-floor cleaning mode. The suction wand has a first section which comprises the handle, a second section, and a third section which comprises a suction nozzle. The first section is movable relative to the second section between floor cleaning and above-floor cleaning positions. The third section is extendable and retractable relative to the second section. The suction wand has a linkage which is configured to couple movement of the first section towards one of said positions, and extension or retraction of the third section.

A vacuum cleaner comprising a cyclonic separating apparatus including a dirty air inlet, a main body connected to the cyclonic separating apparatus and a motor and fan unit for generating an airflow through the cyclonic separating apparatus from the dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet, wherein the cyclonic separating apparatus includes at least a first cyclonic cleaning stage and an elongate filter arranged fluidly downstream from the first cyclonic cleaning stage, the elongate filter being housed in a duct at least partially surrounded by the first cleaning stage, and wherein the filter comprises an inlet portion and a filter portion defining a generally tubular filter chamber, the inlet portion including one or more radially facing inlets to permit air to flow into the inlet portion in a radial direction from where the air flows from the inlet portion to the filter chamber in an axial direction.

The invention relates to a floor vacuum cleaner comprising a dust collector arrangement mounted on rollers and/or runners, a suction hose, a suction tube, and a floor nozzle, wherein the floor nozzle is fluidically connected to the dust collector arrangement via the suction tube and the suction hose, wherein the dust collector arrangement comprises a dust separator, wherein the dust collector arrangement comprises a motorized fan unit for suctioning an air stream through the floor nozzle, wherein the motorized fan unit is arranged so that an air stream suctioned in through the floor nozzle, the suction tube, and the suction hose flows through the motorized fan unit and into the dust separator, wherein the dust collector arrangement has a housing and the motorized fan unit is mounted on or in the housing, wherein the dust separator is mounted in the housing.

A hand vacuum cleaner with a finger grip area that is provided between a forward side of the handle and a rear side of the main body, and wherein the suction motor is positioned between the cyclone and the finger grip area and an axis that extends between the front of the cyclone and the handle extends through the suction motor.

A surface cleaning apparatus comprises an air treatment chamber, a pre-motor filter and a suction motor. The suction motor and the pre-motor filter are laterally spaced from the air treatment chamber. When the surface cleaning apparatus is positioned on a horizontal surface with the upper end of the air treatment chamber above the lower end of the air treatment chamber, the pre-motor filter is positioned at a higher elevation than the suction motor.

The present disclosure relates to fine filter part kit (63), comprising a replacement fine filter part (15) that is adapted to be mounted to a fine filter section (12) for a dust extractor (1). The fine filter part kit (63) further comprises a filter lid (16) that is adapted to be mounted to a corresponding used fine filter part (15) to be replaced, already mounted to the fine filter section (12), and thereby seal an opening (28) of a particle containing space inside the used fine filter part (15) before removing the used fine filter part (15). In this way, release of particles contained in the particle containing space into the ambient air is prevented and a secure disposal of the used fine filter part (15) is enabled.

An upright surface cleaning apparatus comprises rear wheels that are moveable in a longitudinal direction and/or a lateral direction, which is transverse to the longitudinal direction, upon reconfiguring the upright surface cleaning apparatus between a storage position and an floor cleaning position.
