Abstract: In general, the present disclosure is directed to a hand-held surface cleaning device that includes a relatively compact form-factor to allow users to store the same in a nearby location (e.g., in a drawer, in an associated charging dock, on a table top) for easy access to perform relatively small cleaning tasks that would otherwise require retrieving a full-size vacuum from storage. A hand-held surface cleaning device consistent with aspects of the present disclosure includes a body (or body portion) with a motor, power source and dust cup disposed therein. The body portion also functions as a handgrip to allow the hand-held surface cleaning device to be operated by one hand, for example.

IPC: A47L9/24

Abstract: A flexible hose for use with surface cleaning devices is disclosed that includes a support structure that allows a user to collapse and lock the same into a storage configuration, and then easily unlock the same using a relatively minor amount of force, e.g., a user-applied pulling force or mechanical force. Thus, in a general sense, a hose consistent with the present disclosure may include two relatively stable/steady-state configurations, namely a storage configuration and an in-use configuration. Thus, the hose allows a user to collapse and lock the hose when not in use, and to transition the hose to an in-use configuration to target various types of surfaces to clean including, for instance, floors, walls and ceilings which may be many feet (e.g., up to 5 feet or more) from the surface cleaning apparatus.

CPC classification number: A47L9/10

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner may include a suction motor, a body defining a filter cavity, the filter cavity being fluidly coupled to the suction motor and configured to receive a filter, a filter cover removably coupled to the body, the filter cover extending over at least a portion of the filter cavity, and a release configured to transition between a releasing position and a retaining position to removably couple the filter cover to the body. The release may include a body release portion, at least a portion of the body release portion being rotatably coupled to the body and a cover release portion, at least a portion of the cover release portion being slidably coupled to the filter cover, wherein a rotational movement of the body release portion causes a corresponding linear movement in the cover release portion to transition the release between the releasing position and the retaining position.
