Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a cleaner main body to be rotated to a given direction with respect to a wheel base as well as to prevent a power source cord from winding around the cleaner main body by having a power source cord out of a cord reel penetrated through a rotating shaft connecting the cleaner main body with the wheel base so as to be pulled out of the lower section of the wheel base. CONSTITUTION:A cleaner main body 1 is composed of a cord reel 5 taking a power source cord 4 up, an electric blower 6, a hose entry 7 connecting with a hose 2 and a dust collecting case lid 10 which is opened/closed via the electric blower 6 and a dust collector case lid rotating shaft 9. When the cleaner main body 1 is connected with a wheel base, a rotating shaft 13 at the main body side the outer diameter of which is smaller than the inner diameter of a rotating shaft 12 at the wheel base side, is penetrated through the rotating shaft 12 so that it is ought to be locked by a locking section. It may be, however, possible that the power source cord 4 winds around a caster 3 if the aforesaid situation is left as it is, a power source cord pull-out fitting 16 is provided so that the cord can thereby be pulled out across the caster 3.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner, and particularly to a vacuum cleaner in which the main body and wheel base of the vacuum cleaner can be rotated in any direction, and the power cord can be wrapped around the main body. The present invention relates to a vacuum cleaner having a configuration in which there is no such structure.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional devices, as seen in Utility Model Publication No. 43-29421, had already been devised in which the main body and wheel stand rotated separately, but no consideration was given to the possibility of the power cord becoming entangled. However, as it is, the power cord gets tangled with the main body of the vacuum cleaner when it rotates on the wheel base.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above conventional technology does not take into consideration how to pull out the power cord, and when the vacuum cleaner body rotates from the wheel base, there is a problem in which the power cord gets wrapped around the cleaner body.

An object of the present invention is to provide a vacuum cleaner whose main body can be rotated in any direction from a wheel stand and whose power cord does not wrap around the main body when rotated.

[Means to solve the problem]

The above object is achieved by passing the power cord from the cord reel through the rotating shaft that connects the vacuum cleaner body and the wheel stand and pulling it out from the bottom of the wheel stand.

[Effect]

The main body of the vacuum cleaner and the wheel stand are each connected by a rotating shaft, and by passing the power cord pulled out from the board reel through the rotating shaft, the power cord will not be disconnected even when the main body of the vacuum cleaner is rotated from the wheel stand. There is no problem of wrapping around the vacuum cleaner body.

【Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG.

1 is the main body of the vacuum cleaner. This vacuum cleaner main body 1 has a cord reel 5 for winding a power cord 4. Electric blower6. hose 2
Hose insertion lower connected to electric blower 6. It is composed of a dust collection case lid 10 that opens and closes via a dust collection case lid rotation shaft 9.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a wheel stand, which is equipped with a plurality of casters 3.

Further, the wheel base 11 is provided with a rotation shaft b12 for connecting to the cleaner main body 1.

When connecting the vacuum cleaner main body 1 and the wheel stand 11, a main body side rotation shaft 13 having an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the wheel stand side rotation shaft 12 is used.
can be passed through the rotating shaft 12 and locked by the locking part 14.

Note that a plurality of axles 15 are provided at the bottom of the cleaner body, making it easy to rotate the cleaner body 1 and the wheel stand 11.

However, if this continues, there is a possibility that the casters 3 may step on the power cord 4. To solve this problem, as shown in FIG. You should be able to pull it out from between.

According to this embodiment, it is possible to obtain a vacuum cleaner that can be easily rotated in any direction during cleaning, and in which the power cord does not wrap around the main body of the vacuum cleaner.

Furthermore, even if the protruding parts of the casters or the like hang on furniture or the like, the wheel stand can easily rotate and pass through.

Further, according to the second and final embodiment, the caster does not step on the power cord taken out from the wheel stand, so the power cord is not damaged.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, by passing the power cord through the rotating shaft that connects the vacuum cleaner body and the wheel base, the vacuum cleaner body can be rotated in any direction from the wheel base, and the power cord is connected to the vacuum cleaner body. This has the effect of providing a vacuum cleaner that does not get wrapped around the body.
