DUST COLLECTOR, VACUUM CLEANER, AND CLEANING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17989025 titled 'DUST COLLECTOR, VACUUM CLEANER, AND CLEANING DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a dust collector for a vacuum cleaner that includes a dust collecting casing, a cyclone module, and a discharge door. The cyclone module separates foreign substances by creating a swirling flow of air. The discharge door can be switched between an open position and a closed position, controlling the opening and closing of a foreign substance discharge port.
- The dust collector includes a dust collecting casing, a cyclone module, and a discharge door.
- The cyclone module separates foreign substances by inducing a swirling flow of air.
- The discharge door can be switched between an open position and a closed position.
- When the discharge door is in the open position, the cyclone module can rotate freely.
- When the discharge door is in the closed position, the cyclone module is locked and cannot rotate.
Potential Applications
- Household vacuum cleaners
- Industrial vacuum cleaners
- Commercial cleaning equipment
Problems Solved
- Efficient separation of foreign substances from the air flow
- Easy and convenient discharge of collected dust and debris
Benefits
- Improved cleaning performance
- Reduced maintenance and cleaning effort
- Enhanced user experience with easy-to-use dust collector
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a dust collector of a vacuum cleaner, the dust collector including a dust collecting casing including an air inlet, an air outlet, and a foreign substance discharge port, a cyclone module configured to separate foreign substances by inducing a swirling flow of air drawn in via the air inlet, and a discharge door switchable between an open position in which the foreign substance discharge port is opened and a closed position in which the foreign substance discharge port is closed, wherein the cyclone module includes a fixed part and a rotating part having a rotating state in which it is allowed to rotate with respect to the fixed part when the discharge door is in the open position and a locked state in which it is prevented from rotating with respect to the fixed part when the discharge door is in the closed position.
