PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vacuum cleaner by which a curved hose is readily and sanitarily contracted and stored by a user, or by which stand storage with good appearance is allowed. SOLUTION: When a hook 12 is fitted to a catching portion 11 to bring the vacuum cleaner 1 into a stand storage state, a push sensor 22 is pushed by a pushing portion 21 provided at the hook 12, and information that the hook 12 is fitted to the catching portion 11 (stand storage state) is transmitted to a controlling microcomputer (not illustrated) through an electric circuit not illustrated. At the same time, an inside space from a valve 26 to a vacuum cleaner body 2 is sealed by the valve 26, and operation for contracting a stretchable hose 14 and storing it into a cover 10 is started by the controlling microcomputer (not illustrated). Therefore, the user is allowed to readily and sanitarily store the curved stretchable hose 14 and the stand storage with good appearance is allowed. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
