A cleaner station includes: a housing configured to receive a cleaner, a dust collecting motor that is accommodated in the housing and that is configured to generate a suction force for suctioning a foreign substance out of a dust bin of the cleaner, a dust storage module configured to, based on the dust collecting motor being operated, receive the foreign substance from the dust bin, and a sterilization module configured to sterilize the foreign substance received in the dust storage module. The dust storage module that (i) comprises a transmission panel configured to transmit sterilization light emitted by the sterilization module and (ii) is detachably coupled to the housing together with the transmission panel.

Cleaner station

The present disclosure relates to a cleaner system including: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.

Vacuum cleaner station, vacuum cleaner system, and method for controlling vacuum cleaner station

A nozzle for a cleaner has a nozzle main body including an intake channel to suction air. The nozzle includes first and second rotary cleaning units spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction under the nozzle main body. Each of the first and second rotary cleaning units includes a rotary plate coupled to a dust cloth. The nozzle further includes a first driving device to drive the first rotary cleaning unit and a second driving device to drive the second rotary cleaning unit. The nozzle includes a water tank to store water. Further, the nozzle has a water supply channel to supply water in the water tank to the rotary cleaning units. The nozzle has a water pump and a pump motor to drive the water pump to pump the water to the dust cloth.

Nozzle for cleaner

A cleaner can include a cleaner main body including a suction motor configured to generate a suction force to suction air containing dust on a cleaning surface, the cleaner main body being configured to separate the dust from the air suctioned; a nozzle placed on the cleaning surface and configured to suck the air containing dust on the cleaning surface; and an extension tube to which the nozzle is detachably connected, one end connected to the nozzle and the other end connected to the cleaner main body to guide the air containing dust from the cleaning surface to the cleaner main body.

A cleaner includes a dust bin, a motor housing disposed above and coupled to the dust bin, a handle coupled to the motor housing, a cyclone part disposed in the dust bin and configured to separate dust from air, a filter disposed in the dust bin and configured to filter air having separated the dust through the cyclone part, and a compression part configured to compress the dust in the dust bin. The compression part includes an operating part disposed in the motor housing and configured to move in a space between an outer portion of the filter part and an inner circumferential surface of the dust bin, a manipulation part disposed outside the motor housing and configured to be manipulated to move the operating part, and a transmission part that is disposed in the motor housing and connects the operating part and the manipulation part.

Vacuum cleaner

A nozzle for a cleaner has a nozzle housing including a suction flow path configured to allow air and dust to flow therethrough. A water tank is mounted on the nozzle housing to store water. The nozzle also has first and second rotation cleaning units arranged on a lower side of the nozzle housing. Each of the first and second rotation cleaning units include a rotation plate coupled to a mop. The nozzle includes a first driving device that has a first driving motor to drive the first rotation cleaning unit. The nozzle also includes a second driving device that has a second driving motor to drive the second rotation cleaning unit. Further, the nozzle has a water discharge port provided at a bottom of the nozzle housing to supply water in the water tank to each of the first and second rotation cleaning units.

A cleaner system includes a cleaner and a cleaner station that performs a method for removing residual dust. The cleaner station is configured to suction dust stored in the cleaner. Residual dust in the cleaner station after suctioning dust in a dust bin of the cleaner is suctioned through a bypass hole that penetrates an outside and an inside of a suction tube.

Cleaner system

A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle housing including a suction flow path through which air containing dust can flow and a driving unit cover including a plurality of protruding surfaces, a first rotation cleaning unit and a second rotation cleaning unit disposed on a bottom side of the nozzle housing, each of the first rotation cleaning unit and the second rotation cleaning unit including a rotation plate designed to be coupled to a mop, rotation centers of the first rotation cleaning unit and the second rotation cleaning unit are eccentric with respect to a center of the driving unit cover, a driving device for driving the first rotation cleaning unit and the second rotation cleaning unit; and a water tank provided on the nozzle housing and for storing water to be supplied to the mops.

A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle housing including a suction flow path through which air including dust flows and at least a portion of which extends in a front and rear direction. First and second rotation cleaning units are arranged on the lower side of the nozzle housing to be spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction. Each of the first and second rotation cleaning units includes a rotation plate adapted for attachment of a mop. A first driving device including a first driving motor drives the first rotation cleaning unit and a second driving device including a second driving motor drives the second rotation cleaning unit. A water tank mounted on the nozzle stores water to be supplied to the mop.

A nozzle for a cleaner includes a nozzle main body, a rotation cleaning unit rotatably connected to the nozzle main body, the rotation cleaning unit including a rotation plate provided with a mop, and a water supply flow path configured to supply water from a water tank to the rotation cleaning unit, the water supply flow path having an outlet. The rotation plates includes a central shaft, at least one water passage hole spaced apart from the central shaft in a radial direction to receive water directly from the outlet of the water supply flow path, and a water blocking rib located outside of the water passage hole in the radial direction.
