Vacuum cleaner utensil
In a vacuum cleaner utensil ( 1 ) comprising a suction opening ( 3 ) and a lint picker ( 5 ) at a side of the suction opening ( 3 ), the lint picker ( 5 ) is mounted in a recessed portion having a plurality of rims ( 7 a - 7 d ) along lines at an angle between 20° and 70° to a longitudinal axis (A-A) of the suction opening ( 3 ) that form edges pointing towards the suction opening ( 3 ). Preferably, the lint picker has a plurality of triangular-shaped elements ( 5 a - 5 d ). Preferably, the lint picker has a plurality of elements ( 5 a - 5 d ) that have first and second boundaries along lines at an angle between 20° and 70° to the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the suction opening ( 3 ), an angle between the first and second boundaries not exceeding 120°. Another aspect of the invention provides a vacuum cleaner comprising a suction unit, and a nozzle arranged for being coupled to the suction unit, wherein the nozzle is formed by such a vacuum cleaner utensil ( 1 ).
1. A vacuum cleaner utensil, comprising:
a suction opening;
a lint picker at a side of the suction opening, wherein the lint picker is mounted in a recessed portion,
wherein the recessed portion has at least two rims from a plurality of rims oriented along lines at an angle between 20° and 70° to a longitudinal axis of the suction opening, and meet each other to form edges pointing towards the suction opening.
2. The vacuum cleaner utensil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lint picker has a plurality of triangular-shaped elements.
3. The vacuum cleaner utensil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lint picker has a plurality of elements that have first and second boundaries along lines at an angle between 20° and 70° to the longitudinal axis of the suction opening, an angle between the first and second boundaries not exceeding 120°.
4. A vacuum cleaner comprising:
a suction unit, and
a nozzle arranged for being coupled to the suction unit, wherein the nozzle is formed by a vacuum cleaner utensil as claimed in claim 1 .
