Abstract: A hand-held vacuum cleaner includes a housing. A nozzle is attached to and laterally offset from the housing and a brushroll is supported for rotation in the nozzle. A power drive is connected to the bushroll. A collection container is supported by the housing. A conduit external of the housing has one end detachably connected to the nozzle and another end communicating with the collection container. A vacuum source creates an airflow through the conduit to the collection container. An on-board cleaning tool is carried by the housing. The tool is removable from the housing for connection to the conduit when the one end is detached from the nozzle. The power drive includes a disconnect which stops bushroll rotation when the conduit is detached from the nozzle.

The housing includes a lid portion, a body portion and a hinge portion pivotally connecting together the lid portion and the body portion. The body portion has a space for an operating battery and a storage space for a space battery. A first latch portion is attached to a body portion. An attachment device is molded into the lid portion of the housing. The attachment device defines a second latch portion which cooperates with the first latch portion to releasably secure the lid portion in a closed position relative to the body portion. The aerator includes a pump and a motor operably connected to the pump. The pump and motor are attached to the lid portion of the housing and electrical connection with the working battery is completed when the lid portion is pivoted to the closed position relative to the body portion.
