PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vacuum cleaner capable of surely operating a safety valve. SOLUTION: A recessed portion 5 opened at the lower part is provided on the bottom part of a cleaner body provided with a dust collecting portion and incorporating an electric blower, the recessed portion 5 is provided with a wheel portion 8, and the communicating hole 19 of the safety valve 13 is opened. Thus, when the safety valve 13 is operated, even when a sheet-shaped article is present on a surface to be cleaned such as a floor surface and is sucked, not only a gap G between the recessed portion 5 and the wheel portion 8 forms the path of outside air but also a small diameter wheel 10 of the wheel portion 8 steps on the object to form a larger path of the outside air. Thus, by preventing the vent hole 19 from being completely closed and surely operating the safety valve 13, the electric blower is surely protected. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
