Abstract:

A power tool includes a power tool housing including a fluid inlet and a discharge outlet. A motor is supported by the power tool housing. A tool is configured to be moved relative to the housing by the motor. A fan is configured to be rotated by the motor, such that a fluid flow with debris generated by movement of the tool is drawn into the fluid inlet and through the discharge outlet. A filter is removably attached to the power tool housing. The filter includes a filter media configured to separate the debris from the flow of fluid. The filter media includes a collection container configured to store the debris. The filter also includes an opening in the filter media through which the flow of fluid with the debris enters the collection container, and a valve that is moveable between a closed position and an open position.

- Brookfield WI, US
Michael A. Verhagen - Milwaukee WI, US

International Classification:

A47L 9/00
A47L 9/06
A47L 9/24

Abstract:

An accessory tool for a vacuum cleaner includes a conduit and a nozzle. The conduit includes a first end coupled to the vacuum cleaner and a second end opposite the first end. The nozzle is coupled to the second end and includes a first portion with a first set of teeth and a first channel with an opening opposite the first set of teeth. The nozzle also includes a second portion with a second set of teeth and a second channel with an opening opposite the second set of teeth. The first set of teeth interlock with the second set of teeth, and are configured to cause the first portion and the second portion to pivot together relative to the conduit between a closed position and an open position. The nozzle is movable along an outer surface of the conduit from the second end toward the first end.
