DUAL STAGE CYCLONE VACUUM CLEANER

摘要

The present disclosure provides a home cleaning, appliance (A) including a housing having a nozzle (C)1 which includes a main suction opening (24). An airstream suction source (B) is mounted to the housing and includes a suction airstream inlet and a suction airstream outlet. The suction source selectively establishes and maintains a flow of air from the nozzle main suction opening to the airstream outlet. A cyclone main body (D) is mounted to the housing and communicates with the nozzle main suction opening. The cyclone main body includes. a first stage separator (80) and a plurality of second stage separators (86). A dirt cup (110) is connected to the cyclone main body for collecting dust particles separated by the first stage separator and the plurality of second stage separators. An air manifold (180) is mounted to the first stage separator for fluidly connecting the first stage separator to the plurality of second stage separators. The air manifold includes a top wall (190) and a side wall (196) which cooperate to direct partially cleaned air from the first stage separator to the plurality of second stage separators. A mounting assembly (216, 218, .220) is connected to the side wall and configured to secure the plurality of second stage separators to the air manifold. An outer cover (240) is connected to the mounting assembly. The outer cover encircles the plurality of second stage separators. A cover (310) is connected to the air manifold for directing air discharged from the plurality of second stage separators to the inlet of the airstream suction source.
