    Abstract: A vacuum cleaner with a blockage sensor and methods of identifying an obstructed airway in a vacuum are described. The vacuum cleaner has a motor and a circuit board to provide electrical current to the motor including an amperage flow sensor to determine the electrical current draw of the motor, and a blockage determiner to sample the electrical current draw and count the number of times the sampled electrical current draw exceeds a threshold amperage within a window of time. The blockage determiner can sense a blockage within the airflow path or the beater bar, and can optionally shut down the motor prior to motor failure.

    Abstract: A pre-ionizer for use with an electrostatic precipitator is provided according to an embodiment of the invention. The pre-ionizer includes two or more corona ground elements arranged in a substantially parallel orientation. A corona ground element of the two or more corona ground elements includes a substantially elongate body including a proximate end and a distal end and first and second projections formed on the proximate end and the distal end. The first and second projections retain the corona ground element in the electrostatic precipitator. The pre-ionizer further includes one or more corona charge elements positioned between two adjacent corona ground elements of the two or more corona ground elements. When a high voltage electrical field is placed across the two or more corona ground elements and the one or more corona charge elements, the pre-ionizer at least partially ionizes airflow through the pre-ionizer.

    Abstract: A vacuum cleaner air/liquid separator is provided according to the invention. The separator includes an offset air/liquid airflow inlet for receiving an air/liquid airflow, with the offset air/liquid airflow inlet possessing a width and a height. The separator further includes a substantially cylindrical separator chamber communicating with the offset air/liquid airflow inlet, wherein the offset air/liquid airflow inlet is radially offset from the separator chamber. The separator further includes a lead-in track extending from the offset air/liquid airflow inlet and at least partially around the circumference of the separator chamber. The lead-in track tapers from substantially the width of the offset air/liquid airflow inlet into the separator chamber. The air/liquid airflow is entrained into a downward spiraling path in the separator chamber by the lead-in track.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for particulate containment and collection are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, an apparatus includes a shroud attachable to the floor machine and having a skirt portion positionable proximate a work surface to define an at least partially enclosed chamber therebetween, an intake member attached to the shroud and positioned proximate the chamber, the intake member having an intake aperture positionable proximate the work surface and in fluid communication with the chamber; and a vacuum duct having a first end fluidly coupled to the intake member and a second end coupleable to a vacuum source. The containment chamber confines at least some of the particulates produced by the floor machine, thereby improving the effectiveness of the vacuum source. The shroud may be removably attachable to the floor machine. In a further aspect, the shroud may have an exhaust aperture disposed therethrough, the intake member having an engagement portion slideably engaged into the exhaust aperture to permit the intake aperture to be adjustably positionable proximate the work surface. In a further aspect, an apparatus includes a diffusion member disposed proximate the intake aperture and positionable proximate the work surface. The diffusion member creates a high-velocity airflow at or near the work surface, thereby improving the effectiveness of the vacuum source at removing the particulates from the work surface. In still another aspect, an apparatus further includes a floor machine having a treatment member engageable with a work surface. Alternately, an apparatus further includes a vacuum source.
