A dust separating apparatus for a vacuum cleaner is provided. The dust separating apparatus includes a cyclone configured to provide a plurality of cyclone airflows therein and a dust container provided separate from the cyclone. The cyclone includes a first air inlet configured to receive an airflow containing dust and a dust outlet configured to discharge dust separated by the plurality of cyclone airflows. The dust outlet is located in a central portion of the cyclone. The dust container is removably placeable into communication with the dust outlet to collect dust separated in the cyclone. A vacuum cleaner including the dust separating apparatus is also provided.

Vacuum cleaner and dust separating apparatus thereof

A distribution unit for a dust separating apparatus of a vacuum cleaner is provided. The distribution unit distributes air and dust to the dust separation unit includes a body having an inlet for introducing the air and dust to the body, a plurality of branch passages for distributing the air introduced into the body to the dust separation unit, and a main passage for connecting the inlet with the branch passages, and wherein a passage cross-sectional area of the main passage at the branch passage is greater than a passage cross-sectional area of the inlet.

Dust separation apparatus of vacuum cleaner

The present exemplary embodiments relate to a dust separating apparatus for a vacuum cleaner. The dust separating apparatus for a vacuum cleaner according to present exemplary embodiments includes a cyclone in which a plurality of cyclone airflows is formed; a dust outlet for discharging dust separated by the plurality of cyclone airflows; and a dust container for storing dust discharged from the dust outlet, wherein the cyclone includes a body in which air flows along an inner surface thereof, and a pair of sides, each of the sides forming one of both side surfaces of the body and defining an outlet for discharging air.
