Suction nozzle-hanging apparatus for use in vacuum cleaner

1. A suction nozzle hanging apparatus for use in a vacuum cleaner, comprising:

a fixing part formed on a suction nozzle assembly, the suction nozzle assembly having a suction nozzle and an extended tube connected to the suction nozzle; and

a counter fixing part formed on a cleaner body and joining with the fixing part to support the suction nozzle assembly on the cleaner body,

wherein the fixing part is disposed to be rotatable on a longitudinal axis of the extended tube.

2. The suction nozzle hanging apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fixing part comprises:

a sleeve disposed to be rotatable on a longitudinal axis of one of a joining connector of the suction nozzle and a counter joining connector of the extended tube, the sleeve being disposed on an outer circumferential surface thereof; and

a bent protrusion formed on an outer circumferential surface of the sleeve and projected and bent downward from the sleeve.

3. The suction nozzle hanging apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the bent protrusion comprises a plurality of bent protrusions disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the sleeve in a spaced-apart relation to each other.

4. The suction nozzle hanging apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the counter fixing part comprises a pocket part having a protrusion-accommodation recess formed at a rear surface of the cleaner body to accommodate the bent protrusion.

5. The suction nozzle hanging apparatus as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the pocket part projects a predetermined distance from the rear surface of the cleaner body.
