  • Patent number: 12215711
    Abstract: A vacuum motor assembly that includes a motor comprising a drive shaft; an impeller having a plurality of impeller blades spaced radially around a center portion of the impeller. An impeller cover that forms an air channel is spaced around the impeller and the impeller cover includes a front portion; a back portion engaged to the front portion; and a back support. The drive shaft of the motor passes through the drive shaft receiving hole of the back support and engages with the impeller. A front surface of the impeller defines a vertical plane and a first air channel interior distance from the front portion inner surface to the vertical plane within the airflow channel is greater than a second air channel interior distance measured from a back portion inner surface to the same vertical plane.
