Embodiments of the present disclosure relates to a vacuum cleaner and, in particular, to a handheld vacuum cleaner.
Handheld vacuum cleaners are compact in size, very convenient to carry and use, and suitable for use in relatively small space. The handheld vacuum cleaner generally includes a shell, an air flow generating unit, a filter device, a dust collecting barrel and a suction nozzle. The air flow generating unit sucks air, and the air carrying dust enters the dust collecting barrel through the suction nozzle and is then filtered through the filter device, so most of the dust is left in the dust collecting barrel, and the air is discharged into the atmosphere by the air flow generating unit after passing through the filter device.
In the existing handheld vacuum cleaner, by turning on the air flow generating unit, suction power for sucking the dust is provided, a dust suction port of the vacuum cleaner is communicated with an air inlet side of the air flow generating unit, and the air flow entering from the dust suction port passes through the air inlet side of the air flow generating unit, exits from an air outlet side of the air flow generating unit and is discharged from an air outlet port on the shell of the vacuum cleaner. However, the inventor found that, during use of the vacuum cleaner, the air flow generating unit is always powered on, and the air flow generating unit will dissipate heat, while the air outlet port of the existing vacuum cleaner is provided on a side of the air outlet side of the air flow generating unit, and the air flow is discharged directly from the air outlet port of the vacuum cleaner after being discharged from the air outlet side of the air flow generating unit, then the heat dissipated by the air flow generating unit is kept in the shell and cannot be discharged immediately, such that when the vacuum cleaner is in use, the heat in the shell accumulates, and the temperature of the air flow generating unit continues to rise, which affects the service life of the air flow generating unit.
Chinese Patent No. CN208640587U discloses a handheld vacuum cleaner, including a filter device, a motor and a battery pack, the battery pack and the motor are arranged on upper and lower sides of a handle, and air flow discharged by the motor is discharged from a rear end of the handheld vacuum cleaner near a tail portion. For related structures, reference can be made to the Chinese Patent No. CN105615772B, which discloses a handheld vacuum cleaner, in which the battery pack and the motor are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the handle, but contrary to CN208640587U, air flow discharged by the motor is also discharged from a rear end of the handheld vacuum cleaner near a tail portion, so that with such arrangement, an air outlet port is closer to a user, and the air flow discharged from the motor will be blown towards the user, which affects experience of the user.
After the existing handheld vacuum cleaner is used, the filter device and the dust cup need to be cleaned. In the related art, generally, the entire filter device is pulled upwards to remove the filter device from the dust cup, and then the filter device and the dust cup are separately cleaned. The operation of pulling out the filter device is complicated and laborious, and the filter device shakes up and down, which easily disperses dust adhered on a surface into the air, causing the dust to spill out.
The handheld vacuum cleaners generally use a battery to drive the motor to rotate, and the battery is generally mounted in the handle of the handheld vacuum cleaner or between the handle and the base, and electrically connected to the motor. When the battery is working at a relatively high power, it will generate a relatively large amount of heat, and an excessively high surface temperature of the battery will cause risks, such that the power of the battery of the handheld vacuum cleaner is generally relatively low, and a low efficiency of the motor makes the cleaning effect and the cleaning efficiency unsatisfactory.
A cyclone separator of the existing handheld vacuum cleaner is arranged above a filter screen and arranged in the shell, a filter element is placed in the cyclone separator, and due to space limitations, only small filter cotton can be used for filtration, residual dust blocks the filter element after the vacuum cleaner has been used for a long time, which affects the filtering effect of the filter element, so the filter element needs to be cleaned or replaced. However, since the filter element is arranged in the cyclone separator, it is troublesome to disassemble and difficult to clean. Moreover, the cyclone separator is located above the filter screen, such that overall space of the vacuum cleaner is relatively large, the customer experience is poor, and arrangement of other components in the vacuum cleaner cannot be regulated.
An object of embodiments of the present disclosure is to provide a handheld vacuum cleaner, so that the heat emitted by the motor can be discharged immediately, to reduce the temperature of the motor when the vacuum cleaner is in use and prolong the service life of the motor, and the discharged air flow will not be directly blown to the user when the vacuum cleaner is in use.
In order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a handheld vacuum cleaner, including: a dust-air separating unit, an air flow generating unit, a battery pack assembly, and a handle, wherein the dust-air separating unit is provided with a dust suction port that defines a longitudinal axis (X) extending in a front-rear direction, the air flow generating unit is provided with an air inlet side and an air outlet side, the air inlet side is in communication with the dust-air separating unit, an outer wall of the handheld vacuum cleaner is provided with an air outlet port penetrating therethrough, the air outlet port is in communication with the air outlet side of the dust-air separating unit, and the air outlet port is arranged at least partially exceeding forward beyond the air flow generating unit in a dust-air suction direction along the longitudinal axis (X), the air flow discharged by the motor flows forward to exceed the air inlet side and is then discharged to the outside.
A handheld vacuum cleaner of the present disclosure, including: a dust-air separating unit, an air flow generating unit, a battery pack assembly, and a handle arranged between the air flow generating unit and the battery pack assembly, wherein the dust-air separating unit is provided with a dust suction port that defines a longitudinal axis (X) extending in a front-rear direction, an axis of the handle and the longitudinal axis (X) of the dust suction port intersect to form a certain angle, the air flow generating unit and the dust-air separating unit are communicated through an air inlet duct, an outer wall of the handheld vacuum cleaner is provided with an air outlet port for the air flow generating unit to discharge an air flow outward, the air outlet port is provided penetrating through an outer wall of an outer periphery of the air inlet duct, and a projection of the axis of the handle passes through the air outlet port.
An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides another handheld vacuum cleaner, including: a dust-air separating unit and an air flow generating unit, the dust-air separating unit is provided with a dust suction port that defines a longitudinal axis (X) extending in a front-rear direction, the air flow generating unit includes an air inlet side and an air outlet side arranged along the front-rear direction defined by the longitudinal axis (X) of the dust suction port, the air inlet side is closer to the dust-air separating unit than the air outlet side, the handheld vacuum cleaner is provided with an air outlet port communicated with the air outlet side, and the air outlet ort is arranged at least partially closer to the dust-air separating unit than the air inlet side.
Compared with the related art, for the embodiments of the present disclosure, since the dust air enters the dust-air separating unit from the dust suction port, the separated air enters from the air inlet side of the air flow generating unit and is discharged from the air outlet side of the air flow generating unit, the outer wall of the handheld vacuum cleaner is provided with the air outlet port penetrating therethrough, and the air outlet port is arranged at least partially beyond the air inlet side of the motor in front of the dust-air suction direction of the longitudinal axis X of the dust-air suction port. Therefore, when the air flow flows out from the air outlet port, it will pass through an outer periphery of the air flow generating unit, to take away the heat generated by the air flow generating unit, reducing the temperature of the motor and extending the service life of the motor. Moreover, the air flow is not discharged from the rear end of the handheld vacuum cleaner near the tail portion, and the air flow is away from the user when being discharged, which improves experience of the user.
In addition, the air flow generating unit and the dust-air separating unit are connected by an air inlet duct, and the air outlet port is at least partially located on an outer periphery of the air inlet duct.

Thus, a circuitous section will be formed between the first air channel 1 and the second air channel, when the air flow is discharged out from the air outlet side, it can pass through the first air channel first, and is then discharged from the air outlet port after passing through the second air channel, and when the air flow is in a process of turning from the first air channel to the second air channel, the air flow will collide and buffer in the circuitous section formed between the first air channel and the second air channel. Therefore, energy when the air flow is discharged from the air outlet port is reduced, thereby reducing noise generated by the vacuum cleaner during operation, so as to improve use experiences of the user.
In addition, a deflector is further included, the deflector is in communication with the air outlet channel and tapered at downstream of the air flow, wherein the deflector is arranged around the air inlet duct.

It is not difficult to find from the above that, since the shell 1 and the dust collecting cup 104 are detachably connected, the filter screen 201 is provided in the dust collecting cup 104, the cyclone separator 203 is provided in the dust collecting cup 104, and the shell 1 has the receiving cavity 505 therein, the filter element 13 is arranged in the receiving cavity 505 and located above the cyclone separator 203, so that after the shell 1 is separated from the dust collecting cup 104. The cyclone separator 203 is in the dust collecting cup 104, the filter element 13 is located in the shell 1, and the filter element 13 can be cleaned directly, making it convenient for cleaning. Therefore, during long-term use, the vacuum cleaner maintains a better dust filtering effect, and it will not be blocked by the dust to affect the use. In addition, the cyclone separator 203 is arranged in the dust collecting cup 104 and surrounded by the filter screen 201, so that the cyclone separator 203 does not occupy other space of the vacuum cleaner, reducing a volume of the vacuum cleaner and improving customer experiences. In addition, the volume of the vacuum cleaner is relatively small, such that arrangement of components inside the vacuum cleaner is more regular, and internal arrangement of the vacuum cleaner is more regular. In addition, the filter element 13 is placed in the shell 1, and a filter element 13 having a relatively large volume can be adopted, to improve the dust filtering capacity of the vacuum cleaner.
