Abstract
An improved mechanism for moving a wiping/raising insert of a suction nozzle for a vacuum cleaner is described. The suction nozzle comprises a base plate. The mechanism for moving the insert comprises an operating pedal and a frame for supporting the insert and for bringing this insert from a first working position into a second rest position. The pedal is rotatable about a first axis of rotation and the frame is rotatable about a second axis of rotation. According to the invention, the first and the second axis of rotation lie in a plane inclined at an angle α ranging between 80° and 100° with respect to a plane of the base plate.
