In the sixth embodiment, a process of the vacuum cleaner head 100 switching from the working state to the non-working state is as follows. Under an external force, the first switching component 31 moves away from the first stopping ridge 215 and compresses the second elastic component 32 until the first switching component 31 leaves the first stopping ridge 215. At this moment, under an elastic force of the first elastic component 25, the first abutting block 217 moves from the first extreme position I to the second extreme position II until the second stopping ridge 216 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 10 and reaches to the second extreme position II.

A process of the vacuum cleaner head 100 switching from the non-working state to the working state is as follows. Under the external force, the cover 21 moves from the second extreme position II to the first extreme position I. The first switching component 31 moves away from the first stopping ridge 215 and compresses the second elastic component 32 to give way to the first stopping ridge 215 under the external force. When the cover 21 moves until the first stopping ridge 215 is in contact with the housing 10, the external force on the first switching component 31 is withdrawn, the first switching component 31 is reset to a state that the first switching component 31 abuts against and is restricted by the first stopping ridge 215 (i.e., the first extreme position I) under the elastic force of the second elastic component 32. At this time, a part of the air inlet 211 is located in a cavity of the housing 10 or the air inlet 211 is totally located in a cavity of the housing 10, the movable component 23 acquires sufficient kinetic power and generates sufficient electricity energy to supply the power to the lighting member 24, such that the dust suction head 100 switches from the non-working state to the working state.
