The present invention relates to a nozzle (1) for a vacuum cleaner. The nozzle (1) has a base (3) having an edge (4, 5) and a suction aperture (11) in the base (3). At least one flexible flap (24, 26) protrudes from the base (3) between the edge (4, 5) and the suction aperture (11). The flexible flap (24, 26) has first and second sections (32, 33) separable by an opening (35). The first and second sections (32, 33) are urged towards each other when the nozzle (1) is moved in a first direction in which the edge (4, 5) is a leading edge to close the opening (35) or tend the opening(35) towards closure, and the first and second sections (32, 33) are biased away from each other when the nozzle (1) is moved in a second direction in which the edge (4, 5) is a trailing edge to open the opening (35) or to further open the opening. The present invention also relates to a vacuum cleaner comprising a nozzle (1) for a vacuum cleaner. |
