Filter for a vacuum cleaner

Robotic vacuum cleaner

Charging apparatus

A separating apparatus including a first cyclonic separating unit that includes a first cyclonic separator having a separator axis, a second cyclonic separating unit that includes a second cyclonic separator, the second cyclonic separating unit being movable between a first position and a second position with respect to the first separating unit in a direction which is parallel with the separator axis, a screen disposed within the first cyclonic separator such that it extends parallel with the separator axis. The screen is connected to the second cyclonic separating unit for movement with the second cyclonic separating unit. The separating apparatus includes a wipe for cleaning the screen, wherein the wipe is secured to the first cyclonic separating unit such that movement of the second cyclonic separating unit from the first position to the second position moves the screen relative to the wipe thereby cleaning debris from the screen.

Separating apparatus and vacuum cleaner

A vacuum cleaner including a cyclonic separating unit that includes a cyclonic separator having a separator axis and an end wall which is openable for the removal of dirt from the cyclonic separator, a screen disposed within the cyclonic separator such that it extends in the longitudinal direction of the cyclonic separator, wherein the cyclonic separator is movable relative to the screen between a first position and a second position in the longitudinal direction of the cyclonic separator; a catch arranged to secure the openable end wall in a closed position; and an actuator which is actuated to release the catch when the cyclonic separator is moved into the second position. In an alternative embodiment, there is provided a vacuum cleaner apparatus in which the actuator is enabled for subsequent release of the catch when the cyclonic separator is moved into the second position.
