Problems solved by technology

Although such autonomous vacuum cleaners have the advantage of being able to easily reach under furniture, they have the problem that they cannot reach corners due to their circular shape
Also, since they have to be lightweight and battery powered, they h

Embodiment Construction

[0012] figure 1 A perspective view and a block diagram of a vacuum cleaning device 1 according to the invention are schematically shown. The device 1 comprises a vacuum source device 100 , a cleaning head device 200 and a flexible hose 300 .

[0013] Vacuum source apparatus 100 is implemented as a cabinet with wheels, although wheels are not required to practice the invention. Other displacement means such as drive rails or belts, drums or crawlers are also possible. The tank, also called "tank", carries a motor 110 that drives a suction device, for example of the ventilator type, centrifugal type, or a pump 120 . The suction device 120 communicates with the device inlet 130 and with the exhaust device 140 . In use, air will be drawn in through the appliance inlet 130 and exhausted through the exhaust 140, thereby entraining dust particles, etc., which are trapped in the fluid path arranged in the fluid path from the inlet 130 to the exhaust 140. In the dust accumulator de...

Abstract

A vacuum cleaning apparatus (1) comprises: - a vacuum source device (100) provided with vacuum generating means (110,120) and an inlet (130); - a cleaning head device (200) provided with a mouthpiece (240) and an outlet (250); - and a flexible hose (300) for connecting the cleaning head outlet (250) to the vacuum source inlet (130). The cleaning head device (200) is implemented as a steerable carriage, with wheels (210), at least one motor (220) and a control device (230) for controlling the motor (220). The vacuum cleaning apparatus (1) is provided with a handlepiece (400) arranged at some midsection of the flexible hose (300) and provided with a sensor device (500) for sensing the orientation of the handlepiece (400), the sensor device (500) having a signal output (501) coupled to a signal input (231) of the control device (230). The control device is adapted to control the movements of the cleaning head device on the basis of the sensor signals received from the sensor device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to vacuum cleaners and accessories for vacuum cleaners. Background technique [0002] Vacuum cleaners are well known. They basically consist of a housing that houses the suction motor, a suction nozzle and a flexible hose that connects the nozzle to the housing. Generally, the user manipulates the nozzle. There are several types of nozzles. One type of nozzle used to slide or roll over the ground has a relatively long stiff conduit with a handle connected to a flexible hose, and the user manipulates the nozzle via the handle and conduit. [0003] The vacuum cleaning action involves some setback. People tend to bend over when vacuuming even on straight surfaces, and especially when reaching and cleaning under furniture, which can cause back pain. In addition, cleaning performance is an important issue. [0004] Autonomous vacuum cleaners have been proposed. In these devices, which may also be referred to as...
