[0044] Specifically, the second connecting end 3 includes a cylindrical base 32 with both ends open, and a dust cup 33 clamped on the rear end of the base 32, the gas-dust separation component 31 is placed in the inner cavity of the dust cup 33, the air inlet 4 is arranged at the front end of the base 32, the base 32 has an air inlet channel 34 and an air outlet channel 35, and the air inlet channel 34 and the air outlet channel 35 both extend to the outside of the base 32, when the dust cup 33 is clamped on the base 32, the air inlet channel 34 and the air outlet channel 35 both extend to the bottom of the inner cavity of the dust cup 33, the air inlet channel 34 and the air outlet channel 35 located in the dust cup 33 are arranged in parallel, and the air inlet channel 34 and the air outlet channel 35 are arranged in parallel. 4 is connected to the air inlet 4, the end of the air outlet channel 35 is connected to the air chamber 5 in front of the second connection end 3, the air-dust separation component 31 is located at the bottom of the dust cup 33, and is located between the air inlet channel 34 and the air outlet channel 35. The air-dust separation component 31 is implemented by a product in the prior art. Dirty air enters the air inlet channel 34 from the air inlet 4 and is separated by the air-dust separation component 31. Dust gathers in the dust cup 33 on the rear side of the air-dust separation component 31. The separated air enters the air chamber 5 through the air outlet channel 35, then flows into the exhaust hood through the air outlet hole 51, and then is discharged through the air guide plate 62.

The exhaust component 6 is arranged in front of the first connecting end 1, and an exhaust port 61 for discharging air is arranged in front of the exhaust component 6, which is used to guide the exhaust wind direction to the upper wind guide plate 62. By setting the exhaust port 61 to the front side, the exhaust port 61 will not blow directly to the user due to the push-pull action when the vacuum cleaner is used, and the wind guide plate 62 also avoids the dust caused by the exhaust airflow blowing directly to the ground.

[0049] The present invention is not limited to the exact details of the above-mentioned embodiments. For example, the accessories such as the floor brush and the long tube used in the vacuum cleaner are conventional technologies in the field and are not specifically described in this embodiment.
