A dust collecting apparatus for a vacuum cleaner separates dust and liquid particles from intake air. In an embodiment, the apparatus has a cyclone body with a cylindrical part including an air inlet passage and an air outlet passage, a tapered part, and a contaminant receptacle coupled to the tapered part of the cyclone body. The tapered part has a diameter that decreases from the cylindrical part toward the contaminant receptacle. In some embodiments, a screen with holes sized to pass liquid particles is disposed inside the cyclone body, so that liquid particles and dust are separated during operation.
