Benefits of technology

[0008]The present disclosure provides a brush assembly of a vacuum cleaner that efficiently draws in fibrous dirt or dust such as pet hair from a surface being cleaned.
[0019]As described above, according to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, when the brush assembly moves forward and backward, the pet hair removal member rotates, alternately contacting a surface being cleaned, thereby efficiently removing dirt or dust such as pet hair from the surface being cleaned.
[0020]The pet hair removal unit removes dirt or dust such as pet hair using the duster without contacting the surface being cleaned, and thus is always clean when contacting the surface being cleaned. Therefore, cleaning efficiency is enhanced.

Problems solved by technology

Also, the present disclosure is not required to overcome the disadvantages described above, and an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may not overcome any of the problems described above.
