Abstract
An electric vacuum cleaner has a main body with a blower and a dust-collecting chamber, a triac that controls the blower, a floor nozzle coupled to the main body, a sensor that senses the current in a motor in the floor nozzle that drives its rotary brush, and a microcomputer. At a predetermined interval, the sensor sends a representative value of the current for that interval, which may be the maximum value, to the microcomputer. The microcomputer determines the duty cycle of the triac by performing a fuzzy interference procedure on the values that sent. Thus the supply of current to the blower can be varied automatically according to the conditions of use of the floor nozzle and the kind of floor surface cleaned.
