Suction nozzle and vacuum cleaner having the same
A suction nozzle of a vacuum cleaner includes a suction nozzle body which includes a suction port adapted to draw in contaminants on a surface, and a contaminant attachment unit formed in the suction nozzle body. The contaminant attachment unit is adapted to attach contaminants thereto.
1. A suction nozzle of a vacuum cleaner, comprising:
a suction nozzle body including,
a suction port adapted to draw in contaminants on a surface; and
a contaminant attachment unit detachably formed in the suction nozzle body, the contaminant attachment unit adapted to attach contaminants thereto, wherein the contaminant attachment unit is located behind the suction port, and wherein the contaminant attachment unit comprises:
a tape roller including a roll of tapes on which a bonding agent is applied;
a roller axis for supporting the tape roller; and
an elastic support unit for elastically supporting the roller axis.
2. The suction nozzle of claim 1 , wherein the roll of tapes includes sheets of tapes which are connected to each other in order to be torn off in lengths equivalent to a circumference of the tape roller.
3. The suction nozzle of claim 1 , wherein the elastic support unit comprises:
a guide slit formed in the suction nozzle body to provide a vertical guide for the roller axis;
a support member for supporting the roller axis; and
an elastic member coupled between the guide slit and the support member for elastically pressing the support member onto the roller axis.
4. The suction nozzle of claim 3 , wherein the roller axis is adapted to extend and contract in an axial direction.
5. The suction nozzle of claim 1 , wherein the suction nozzle body further comprises a plurality of wheels located behind the contaminant attachment unit.
6. A suction nozzle of a vacuum cleaner, comprising:
a suction nozzle body including,
a suction port adapted to draw in contaminants on a surface; and
a contaminant attachment unit detachably formed in the suction nozzle body, wherein the contaminant attachment unit is a tape roller for attaching contaminants thereto.
7. A vacuum cleaner, comprising:
a cleaner body; and
a suction nozzle connected to the cleaner body, the suction nozzle including a suction nozzle body having a suction port adapted to draw in contaminants on a surface; and
a contaminant attachment unit detachably formed in the suction nozzle body, the contaminant attachment unit adapted to attach contaminants thereto, wherein the contaminant attachment unit is a tape roller.
8. The vacuum cleaner of claim 7 , wherein the tape roller is located behind the suction port.
9. The vacuum cleaner of claim 8 , wherein:
said tape roller including a roll of tapes on which a bonding agent is applied;
a roller axis for supporting the tape roller; and
an elastic support unit for elastically supporting the roller axis.
10. The vacuum cleaner of claim 9 , wherein the roll of tapes includes sheets of tapes which are connected to each other in order to be torn off in lengths equivalent to a circumference of the tape roller.
11. The vacuum cleaner of claim 10 , wherein the elastic support unit comprises;
a guide slit formed in the suction nozzle body to provide a vertical guide for the roller axis;
a support member for supporting the roller axis; and
an elastic member coupled between the guide slit and the support member for elastically pressing the support member onto the roller axis.
12. The vacuum cleaner of claim 11 , wherein the roller axis is adapted to extend and contract in an axial direction.
13. The vacuum cleaner of claim 12 , wherein the suction nozzle body further comprises a plurality of wheels located behind the contaminant attachment unit.
14. The vacuum cleaner of claim 11 , wherein the support member has a curved surface.
15. The vacuum cleaner of claim 11 , wherein the support member has a flat surface.
16. The vacuum cleaner of claim 3 , wherein the support member has a curved surface.
17. The vacuum cleaner of claim 3 , wherein the support member has a flat surface.
