[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] Ordinary household vacuum cleaner sucks a floor surface into an elliptical main body or a spherical main body with wheels and a tip of an extension pipe through a connecting hose. It is designed to be used by connecting tools and the like. Then, while pulling the main body while holding the vicinity of the grip portion of the connected connecting hose, the floor suction device is slid back and forth along the floor surface to perform cleaning. This type of vacuum cleaner, which pulls and cleans, has a large cleaning radius because the floor suction device is attached to the end of the extension pipe connected to the connecting hose, so the moving distance of the main unit is small and the accessory Can be stored compactly in the case.

In addition to the pull-type vacuum cleaner, there is also a stand-type vacuum cleaner having a structure in which the main body is upright. The floor-type vacuum cleaner has a floor suction device integrally attached to a lower portion of the main body, and performs cleaning while pushing and sliding the floor suction device together with the main body. Therefore, here, a vacuum cleaner that pulls the main body is referred to as a "pull-wheel type", and a vacuum cleaner having a pushing structure is referred to as a "push-wheel type". “Push-type” vacuum cleaners have the advantage that they can immediately start cleaning the floor, or they can store the entire vacuum cleaner in a small floor space in a stand state while standing upright.

During cleaning, for example, when a buzzer sounds and a visitor is notified, the power switch is turned off by operating the hand switch (10).
Lift the tip side of the main body (2), and the left and right rear wheels (6)
Rotate around the fulcrum. Lift the tip side to support wheels (24)
When the main body (2) is brought into contact with the floor surface (1), the main body (2) is supported by three points of the left and right rear wheels (6) and the auxiliary wheels (24) to be in an upright stand state. Here, holding the extension pipe (11), the engaging piece (34) of the fixing mechanism (30) is inserted into the mounting hole (32) of the main body (2). The engagement piece (34) and the mounting hole (32) are fitted to each other with a gentle taper, and the main body (2) and the extension pipe (11) are interconnected and fixed.
The fixed state of the main body (2) and the cylindrical pipe (11) is shown in FIG. The inclination angle θ of the extension pipe (11) in the fixed state is about 120 degrees, and the suction surface of the floor suction tool (12) is parallel to the floor surface (1). Further, the grip surface (14) of the grip portion (9) is also held substantially parallel to the floor surface (1) as shown.

In the above embodiment, the vacuum cleaner in which the floor suction device (12) is connected to the end of the extension pipe (11) is illustrated and described. Other attached suction tools such as a round brush or a suction nozzle can be connected. In addition, although the main body (2) is illustrated as a substantially elliptical vacuum cleaner, the main body may have a rectangular shape or a cylindrical shape. Further, although the exhaust ports (22) and (23) are provided on the back surface, they may be provided at other positions such as side surfaces. Furthermore, a power brush that rotates a rotary brush with an electric motor built into the floor suction device (12) is employed, and the power switch of the rotary brush is configured to rotate in conjunction with the fixing of the fixing mechanism (30). You can also. The power switch of the power brush in this case is, for example, an engagement piece (34)
A switch that is turned on by using the insertion operation of the device can be configured by a known means that is disposed near the mounting hole (32). In this way, the fixing mechanism (30) is fixed and the power brush is automatically switched to the configuration that always rotates, and a "push-cart" type vacuum cleaner for carpets that is convenient for handling is provided. Be composed.
