Abstract
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.
