Control circuitry for enabling drive system for vacuum cleaner

摘要

A self-propelled appliance comprises a base, electric motor mounting the base, a handle moveably depending from the base and a drive wheel mounted in the base and operatively connected to the motor. The control circuits comprising an enable switch and a base switch control the communication of power from the power supply to the motor relative to a gripping of the handle by a user of the appliance and a selective positioning of the handle relative to the base.
