Abstract
The invention describes a vortex finder for a cyclonic separator. The vortex finder includes a plurality of stationary vanes around which incoming air is guided into the vortex finder, in which a side of the vanes facing the incoming air is provided with a protrusion at a stagnation point. The protrusion is shaped so as to guide the incoming air into the vortex finder, and have a concave side following a shape of a neighboring vane, and a rounded top. Further, the protrusion has a height in a range between 70% and 130%, and in a range between 85% and 115% of a gap width between the vanes. The gap width between adjacent vanes increases from an outside to an inside of the vortex finder. A vacuum cleaner that includes a cyclonic separator has such a vortex finder.
