发明名称 Appliances for cleaning or otherwise treating floor and other surfaces
摘要 An appliance for treating a surface comprises a body (10) housing a container (30) and a surface-treatment head (50) adapted to engage a surface. A recess (150) is formed in the body (10) to receive said container releasably through an opening (145) formed at one side of said body (10). Upper and lower means (31, 32) are provided for locating said container (30) within said recess (150). The upper locating means (31) comprises abutment means (214) arranged and adapted to engage the container (30) at an upper end (351) thereof and limit movement of the container (30) in an upward direction as it is inserted into the recess (150), whilst permitting the container (30) to be pivoted about the abutment means (214) so as to bring a lower end of the container (30) into the lower end of the recess (150). The lower locating means (32) on a base member (151) of the recess (150) includes lateral shoulders (155) which are arranged to engage laterally spaced ribs (316) formed at the underside of the container (30) and detent means (160, 317) to hold the base of the container (30) releasably in the required position. A lateral handle (312) is formed on the container (30) at the side thereof which, in use, is disposed adjacent to the opening in the body (10) to facilitate insertion and removal of the container (30).
