Abstract
A hard bag cleaner is provided where cleaner air is exhausted through a lower positioned motor-fan system disposed in the hard bag portion of its cleaner. Air then moves upwardly along the side of the hard bag portion of the cleaner to be exhausted horizontally outwardly therefrom. A series of vertically extending guiding vents formed by vertically extending louvers baffle exhaust air flow and also serve as an inner support for a filter mounted outwardly against these louvers.
