  • Publication number: 20260041295
    Abstract: A vacuum attachment tool includes a hollow body extending from a first end to a second end, and a conduit connector disposed at the second end of the hollow body. The hollow body defines a flow path. The conduit connector includes an inner collar having an inner diameter sized to receive a first vacuum conduit having a first diameter. The conduit connector also includes an outer collar having an inner diameter sized to receive a second vacuum conduit having a second diameter greater than the first diameter. The outer collar includes a first tab that includes a plurality of teeth operable to engage a locking mechanism of the first vacuum conduit and the second vacuum conduit. The outer collar is integrally formed with the inner collar.

  • Patent number: 12453452
    Abstract: A vacuum conduit pipe adapter includes a hollow body extending from a first end to a second end, a vacuum conduit connector positioned at the second end of the hollow body and operable to connect the vacuum conduit pipe adapter to a vacuum system, and a pipe connector positioned at the first end of the hollow body. The pipe connector includes a plurality of cylindrical fitments, where each fitment is formed circumferentially about a respective central axis and includes an inner surface having an inner diameter sized to receive a pipe having a different diameter than the other fitments. The central axis of each fitment is radially offset from the central axis of each other fitment.

  • Patent number: 12419476
    Abstract: A wand assembly for a vacuum cleaner includes a first wand, a second wand telescopically arranged with the first wand, and a rotatable locking cuff including first and second locking ramps. The first wand includes a first plurality of grooves arranged in a first row and a second plurality of grooves arranged in a second row, with each row extending in a longitudinal direction. The second wand includes first and second locking teeth integrally formed with the second wand and engageable with the respective first and second pluralities of grooves. Rotation of the locking cuff relative to the wands causes the first locking ramp to deflect the first locking tooth into engagement with one of the first plurality of grooves, and causes the second locking ramp to deflect the second locking tooth into engagement with one of the second plurality of grooves to fix a length of the wand assembly.

  • Publication number: 20250275661
    Abstract: A vacuum accessory includes a nozzle body and a squeegee attachment assembly. The squeegee attachment assembly includes a housing selectively connectable to the nozzle body and defining a suction inlet and a squeegee assembly rotatably connected to the housing such that the squeegee assembly is rotatable relative to the suction inlet. The squeegee assembly is at least partially disposed within the suction inlet and rotatable between a forward position, in which the squeegee assembly occludes a forward side of the suction inlet, and a rearward position, in which the squeegee assembly occludes a rearward side of the suction inlet.
