SUCTION TOOL AND VACUUM CLEANER USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suction tool which enables the cleaning of places such as narrow areas and inaccessible depths on a chest of drawers.SOLUTION: A suction tool 7 comprises: a telescopic connection pipe part 8; an articulated part 9 having a plurality of articulations 11; and a suction head 12 connected to the articulated part 9. The articulated part 9 is structured in such a way that two articulations 11 neighboring to each other are connected on a shank and the two neighboring articulations are combined with the shank as an axis. Each of the articulation 11 has a protruding notch 33 at one end and two or more grooves 31, 32 at the other end. The notch 33 of one articulation 11 of neighboring articulations selectively fits into the two or more grooves of the other articulation 11 to thereby enable position restriction of the articulations with the angle between them varied. This allows the suction tool 7 to be bendable in a stepwise manner, thereby enabling the cleaning of inaccessible places.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
