Abstract (en)

Described is a vacuum cleaner (1) with liquid filtering comprising a suction device (2), a filtering chamber (8) having an air inlet section (9), put in fluid communication with the outside environment, and an air outlet section (10). The suction device (2) is operatively connected to the air outlet section (10) to generate a flow of air along the main path in such a way as to suck air through the inlet section (9). Moreover, the filtering chamber (8) comprises a tank (13) for containing the liquid having a bottom wall (14). In addition, the vacuum cleaner (1) comprises an air infeed duct (15) associated with the air inlet section (9) and having an infeed opening (16) positioned inside the filtering chamber (8); More specifically, the air infeed duct (15) extends inside the containment tank (13) away from the bottom wall (14) in such a way as to emerge from the level of the liquid. Moreover, the vacuum cleaner (1) comprises an air diversion obstacle (19) facing the infeed opening (16) for diverting the air towards the bottom wall (14) in such a way as to pass the air through the liquid for performing the filtering.
