<p>Vacuum devices having integrated cord storage and pivotable tool holders are disclosed. In one embodiment, a vacuum device (100) includes a housing (112), an airflow propulsion device (120), and a power cord (122). The housing (112) includes an outer surface having a recess (152) disposed therein, the recess (152) being sized to receive a plurality of loops of the power cord (122). First and second cord retainers (128A,B) are disposed within the recess (152) and project outwardly from the housing (112), the first and second cord retainers (128A,B) being sized to retain the plurality of loops of the power cord (122). The outer surface may be a bottom surface (150) of the apparatus (100). In another embodiment, the housing (112) includes a cord mount (125) disposed within the recess (152), the fixed end of the power cord (122) being connected to the cord mount (125) such that a localized portion of the power cord (122) proximate the cord mount (125) is directed approximately toward the first cord retainer (128A). Alternately, the localized portion of the power cord (122) may be inclined with respect to the base surface (153), or parallel with the base surface (153). In another embodiment, a vacuum apparatus (100) includes a housing (112), an airflow propulsion device (120), and a tool holder (300) pivotably attached to the housing proximate an outer surface (315) thereof.</p> |
