PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cleaning implement for a vacuum cleaner, and a cleaning apparatus provided with the cleaning implement.SOLUTION: A cleaning implement 8, 10 comprises a connector 22 for connecting the cleaning implement 8, 10 to a vacuum cleaner 4 such that the cleaning implement 8, 10 is in fluid communication with the vacuum cleaner 4. The connector 22 comprises an engagement portion 38 and a catch 44 pivotally connected to the engagement portion 38 such that the catch 44 has a pivot axis X; and the catch 44 comprises a pressing portion 52 spaced from the pivot axis X and a latching element 50 arranged on a portion of the catch 44 extending from the pivot axis X to the pressing portion 52. The catch 44 is arranged such that pressing on the pressing portion 52 pivots the catch 44 from a first configuration, in which the latching element 50 is in an engagement position for preventing disengagement of the connector 22 from the vacuum cleaner 4, to a second configuration, in which the latching element 50 is in a disengagement position in which the connector 22 can be disengaged from the vacuum cleaner 4. |
