Abstract
Disclosed are a dust receptacle fixing/separating apparatus that fixes and separates a dust receptacle with respect to a cyclone unit, and a cyclone dust collecting device having the same. The dust receptacle fixing/separating apparatus comprises a fixing/separating handle, a locking/unlocking part, and a fixing part. The fixing/separating handle pivots between a first position and a second position, the first position in which the cyclone unit and the dust receptacle are fixed to each other and the second position in which the cyclone unit and the dust receptacle can be separated from each other. The locking/unlocking part fixes and releases the fixing/separating handle when the fixing/separating handle is in the first position. The fixing part pivotably mounting the fixing/separating handle releases connection between the cyclone unit and the dust receptacle when the fixing/separating handle is in the second position.
