。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an upright vacuum cleaner.
[従来の技術]
電気掃除機の歴史は既に数十年を数えるが、国内はとん
どの家庭に普及し、今や各家庭必須の電化製品の一つと
なっている。それだけに電気掃除機の種類は多く、その
機能も高度化されている。[Prior Art] Vacuum cleaners have been around for several decades, and they have spread to almost every household in Japan, and have now become one of the essential electrical appliances in every household. For this reason, there are many types of vacuum cleaners, and their functions are becoming more sophisticated.
しかし機能の開発に限界はなく、各メーカにおいて日々
新しい機能が開発されて付与され、より便利より使いか
ってのよい新製品が紹介され上布されているのが現状で
ある。However, there is no limit to the development of functions, and the current situation is that each manufacturer develops and adds new functions every day, and new products that are more convenient and easier to use are introduced and put on the market.
通常最も普及している一般型電気掃除機は、空気吸引の
ためのモータ駆動のファンや吸引しtこ空気からごみを
濾過し貯蔵する紙パツクなどを内蔵する本体と、床面を
移動して空気とともにごみを吸引するための床ノズルと
、該床ノズルと本体とを結ぶホースとから構成されてい
る。General vacuum cleaners, which are the most popular type, have a built-in main unit that includes a motor-driven fan to suck air, a paper bag to filter and store dust from the suction air, and a vacuum cleaner that moves across the floor. It consists of a floor nozzle for sucking in air and dirt, and a hose that connects the floor nozzle to the main body.

掃除機使用者である。By the way, recently I connected the main body (1) and the floor nozzle (2) with a hose (
For the above general vacuum cleaner connected in step 3), connect the main unit (1)
) Upright type vacuum cleaners have appeared in which a floor nozzle (2) is attached directly to the floor nozzle (2). Figure 5 is a side view of the upright vacuum cleaner, Figure tJ6 is a perspective view of it being used on a normal floor, and Figure 7 is a side view of it being used in a low place. 1) is the main body, (la) is the grip, (2) is the floor nozzle, (6) is the handle, (7) is the wheel, (8) is the floor,
(9) is an arrow indicating the tilting direction of the main body (1), and (10) is the user of the vacuum cleaner.

)から取り外し折り曲げて本体(1)とともに格納する
のに対し、アップライト型の掃除機では、把手(6)で
ぶら下げたままあるいは押して格納できるので、取扱が
ずいぶん便利である。When using this upright vacuum cleaner, the user grasps the handle (6) of the vacuum cleaner with one hand, adjusts its length, and then starts the fan motor built into the main body (1). By pushing the handle (6), the dust on the floor surface (8) to be cleaned is sucked together with air and cleaned. Compared to conventional vacuum cleaners, where you hold the long hose (3) and drag the main body (1) across the floor (8) to clean, upright vacuum cleaners can be cleaned by simply pushing it with one hand. This makes cleaning much easier than regular vacuum cleaners. In addition, when storing a general type vacuum cleaner, the hose (3) is attached to the main body (1).
), then folded and stored together with the main body (1), whereas with an upright vacuum cleaner, it can be stored hanging from the handle (6) or by being pushed, making handling much more convenient.
このように、アップライト型の電気掃除機は、一般型掃
除機に比較して幾つかの利点を備えているところから、
一般に好評を博し、その需要の伸びが期待されている。In this way, upright vacuum cleaners have several advantages compared to general vacuum cleaners.
It has been well received by the public, and demand is expected to grow.
[発明が解決しようとする課題]
上記アップライト型電気掃除機を利用して掃除を行う際

。[Operation] The vacuum cleaner according to the present invention has wheels on the back of the main body, so when cleaning low-height places such as under a desk, lower the main body to near the floor and use the wheels. The wheels are used to support the main body, and the wheels are also used to move the cleaner. In this case, the weight of the main body is supported by the wheels, so the weight of the main body does not rest on the hands of the cleaner user who grips the handle. Further, if the vacuum cleaner is moved by rotating the wheels and the material of the wheels is appropriately selected depending on the specifications of the floor surface, damage to the floor surface due to the wheels can be prevented.
