Abstract
A cleaner includes a body including an insertion slot facing a floor and an installation space inside the body. The cleaner includes a dust housing detachably connected to the body. The dust housing includes a collection opening surface and a storage space that stores foreign substances collected through the collection opening surface. The cleaner has an agitator rotatably connected to the dust housing and exposed through the collection opening surface. The cleaner also includes a driving apparatus that rotates a driving coupler, which drives a driven coupler coupled to the agitator. The cleaner includes a lever located on either the driving coupler or the driven coupler. The lever selectively attaches or separates the driving coupler and the driven coupler. Manipulating the lever separates the driving coupler and the driven coupler and allows the sweep module including the agitator to be removed through the insertion slot in the body.
