Embodiment Construction

[0032] figure 1 A vacuum cleaner is shown comprising a vacuum cleaner body 10 and a suction head 20 articulated relative to the vacuum cleaner body 10 and arranged for contact with the ground to be cleaned. The cleaner body 10 includes a manipulation interface 12 (handle) for the user, a suction mechanism 11 (such as an electric ventilator) and an elongated suction duct 13 defining a longitudinal axis (L) of the cleaner body 10 .

[0033] The suction head 20 is hinged relative to the main body 10 of the vacuum cleaner, and the suction head is connected with the suction mechanism 11 through an air circuit. In fact, the suction head 20 typically comprises at least one suction slit opposite the floor to be cleaned and connected to a suction mechanism in order to allow the dirt of the floor to be driven towards the collection container or filter of the vacuum cleaner. In order to follow the stroke of the suction head 20, the vacuum cleaner includes a ball and socket part to allow...

Abstract

The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner including: a vacuum cleaner body (10) including means for vacuuming (11) and a handling interface (12) for a user, a brush head (20) arranged to be in contactwith a floor to be cleaned and hinged relative to the vacuum cleaner body (10), an air circuit between the means for vacuuming (11) and the brush head (20) and including a first deformable air channel having a first end connected to the brush head (20). The invention is characterized in that the stick vacuum cleaner includes at least one ball-joint part mounted in ball-joint connection relative to the vacuum cleaner body (10) and on which part is carried a second end of the first deformable air channel, and in that the air circuit includes at least a second deformable air channel, at least partially housed within the ball-joint part, and connecting said carried second end to a portion of the air circuit of the vacuum cleaner body (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a vacuum cleaner comprising a suction head, and in particular to a vacuum cleaner whose suction head is hinged relative to the rest of the body of the vacuum cleaner so as to provide a large degree of mobility in use. Background technique [0002] Articulations for vacuum cleaners and their suction heads are known in the prior art, such as that given in document DE3913419, which discloses a universal joint type of articulation. On the contrary, this system in particular has the disadvantage of strongly deforming the hose forming the air duct between the suction head and the electric ventilator housed in the body of the vacuum cleaner, which can lead to excessive Early break. Furthermore, this system represented by connected chains is complex. [0003] Document US8627545 discloses a vacuum cleaner with an articulated suction head, the travel of the main body of the cleaner and its handle is limited, especiall...
