Abstract: A vacuum cleaner nozzle includes a housing with, formed on an underside of the housing and extending in a transverse direction, a suction orifice that is bounded by what in a working direction aligned perpendicular to the transverse direction is a front suction-orifice edge and by what in the working direction is a rear suction-orifice edge, with a suction duct disposed in the housing and adjoining the suction orifice, with a suction port extension, which is also fluidically in communication with the suction duct and is disposed, relative to the working direction, on a rear side of the housing. The vacuum cleaner nozzle further includes a secondary air aperture disposed in front of the suction orifice and fluidically in communication with the suction duct.

Abstract: A floor nozzle for a vacuum cleaner has a housing, and a base on the housing constructed for sliding in a working direction on a floor and formed with a downwardly open slot-shaped port delimited relative to the direction between a transversely extending front port edge and a transversely extending rear port edge. The base has, extending forward from the front port edge, a part-cylindrical and downwardly convex front surface with a front radius of curvature and centered on a transversely extending symmetry axis and, extending rearward from the rear port edge, a part-cylindrical and downwardly convex rear surface having a rear radius of curvature also centered on the symmetry axis. The housing is constructed for movement of air upward through the port.

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner has a nozzle with an electric motor and a cleaning device driven thereby. A separate suction unit has an electric fan for drawing in air and a collector for separating dust from the drawn-in air. A suction conduit extends between the nozzle and the suction unit so the electric fan draws air and dust in through the nozzle, pulls it through the conduit, and separates the dust from the air in the collector. The conduit further has a rigid pipe having an outer end connected to the nozzle and an opposite inner end and a flexible hose connected between the inner end and the suction unit and opening into the collector. A power unit for the nozzle motor has a housing mounted on the pipe, a lithium-ion battery contained in the housing, and a control contained in the housing and operating the electric motor of the nozzle from the battery.
