A cleaner includes a main body and a suction head connected to the main body to suck foreign objects into the main body therethrough, the suction head including a housing including a suction port, and a drum module disposed in the housing, and to be rotated to scatter the foreign objects to be sucked through the suction port so that the scattered foreign objects are drawn into the housing through the suction port, and the drum module including a drum body, a first blade coupled to outer circumference of the drum body, a second blade separated from the first blade in a circumferential direction of the drum body and having a mass greater than a mass of the first blade, and a mass compensation member arranged on the outer circumference of the drum body to compensate for a difference in mass between the first blade and the second blade.

Drum module for cleaner and cleaner including the same

A vacuum cleaner including a cleaner body including a motor configured to generate a suction force and a foreign substance collection chamber; and a suction head connected to the cleaner body. The suction head may include a drum brush, a one-way roller disposed in front of the drum brush, and a housing having a suction port. The drum brush and the one-way roller may be configured so that, when the suction head is moving forward on a surface to be cleaned, the drum brush and the one-way roller rotate so that foreign substances on the surface are suctioned by the suction force into the housing through the suction port to be guided to the foreign substance collection chamber, and when the suction head is moving rearward on the surface, rotation of the one-way roller is restricted to prevent the foreign substances suctioned into the housing from being discharged outside of the housing of the suction head through the suction port.

Vacuum cleaner

Disclosed is a vacuum cleaner. The present vacuum cleaner includes a drum mounted with a brush, a first motor for rotating the drum, a sensor for sensing a load applied to the first motor, a second motor generating suction pressure, and a processor for controlling at least one from the first motor and the second motor according to a size of a load sensed from the sensor.
