Abstract
A vacuum cleaner separation system having: a cyclone tube having a cyclone chamber and an inner wall having a substantially cylindrical appearance defining a center axis; an inlet channel offset with respect to the center axis for receiving dust laden air; a dust outlet for discharging dust from the cyclone tube; an air outlet for discharging air from the cyclone tube; and a helical member arranged within the cyclone tube in an opposite region of the cyclone tube with respect to the air outlet. The helical member defines or partly defines a helical passage around the center axis from the inlet channel to the cyclone chamber for generating a centrifugal flow in the cyclone chamber. The helical passage has a substantially constant cross sectional area and the helical passage is rotated 360° or less than 360° around the center axis.
