Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2487387A] A hand-held vacuum cleaner comprises a housing having a flap (14, fig 1) on its underside which forms the bottom wall of a dust collection chamber 15. In use, the flap (14, fig 1) can be released to empty the chamber 15 of accumulated dirt and dust. The flap (14, fig 1) acts as a chute to help convey the dust to a suitable disposal receptacle. Also disclosed is a vacuum cleaner that comprises a filter 17 inside the collection chamber 15 that separates dirt and dust from the induced airflow. The filter 17 can be cleaned occasionally by operating a motor 36 which causes rotation of the filter 17 relative to a cleaning member, preferably in the form of a brush 39 disposed in engagement with the exterior of the filter17.
