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.

A hand vacuum cleaner comprises a cyclone, a conical pre-motor filter that is positioned rearward of the cyclone and a suction motor. The pre-motor filter has a front end that faces towards the cyclone air outlet. The conical pre-motor filter has an open interior volume, an outer surface, which is an upstream surface of the pre-motor filter, and an inner surface, which is a downstream surface of the pre-motor filter.

A cyclone separator useable in a surface cleaning apparatus comprises a cyclone chamber and a dirt collection chamber exterior to, and surrounding at least a portion of the cyclone chamber. The dirt collection chamber is in communication with the cyclone chamber via a dirt outlet. An air flow passage extending to the cyclone air inlet travels generally axially through the dirt collection chamber.

A surface cleaning apparatus has a cyclone chamber having a longitudinal cyclone axis of rotation wherein the dirt outlet is defined by a gap between the sidewall of the cyclone and a plate positioned at the dirt outlet end of the cyclone.
