Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007116177A1] The present invention relates to a liquid/gas separator (1), especially for a vacuum cleaner, comprising on the one hand an upstream pipe (3) and a downstream pipe (4) connected through a communication orifice (9), and on the other hand, mounted so as to be rotatable inside either pipe, a gas-permeable filtration means (5) designed to direct the in-drawn liquid to its periphery by centrifugation. The separator is characterized in that said filtration means (5) forms means of closing said communication orifice (9).
