Battery powered vacuum trash collector

摘要

A battery powered trash collector mountable on a cart in which the collector, comprised of a pivoted cylindrical bin having a hinged lid surmounted by a vacuum blower, is mounted on a frame to the cart. A flexible hose of inverted U-shape has a nozzle at its outer end adapted for abutting, nozzle closing engagement with the ground or other surface and is supported by a leaf spring secured to the hinged lid. The nozzle is controlled by a handle through a telescoping connection secured to the hose, and a pair of electrical energy sources are provided for energizing the D.C. motor driven vacuum blower. A switch is provided in the handle of the telescoping connection for momentarily energizing the motor while a series/parallel speed controller switch is provided for selectively energizing the motor at one of two given speeds for maximum energy efficiency.
