  • Patent number: 7540064
    Abstract: A suction nozzle and a head of a cleaner having the same includes a suction hole to which a suction force is applied; an air channel formed as a closed region having predetermined area and depth and having the suction hole therein; and scraper longer than an end of an edge of the air channel, positioned in the air channel, and for scraping carpet fibers in cleaning a carpet. Especially when cleaning a carpet, the suction nozzle and the head of a cleaner having the same sufficiently push back carpet fibers to their root portions by the scraper to suck dust and alien substances, so that the carpet can be cleaned more cleanly, a suction path through which external air is introduced is formed in a direction that a cleaning proceeds, and thus dust or alien substances can be effectively removed.

  • Patent number: 7040883
    Abstract: A vane supporting apparatus for a hermetic compressor elastically supports vanes contacting to both cam faces of a dividing plate with thin torsion coil springs, and forms curved surface portions on upper ends of the vanes where the torsion coil springs are contacted, and thereby, height of the supporting apparatus supporting the respective vanes is reduced to miniaturize the compressor, and also, to prevent contacted portions between the vanes and the torsion coil springs from being worn away.

  • Publication number: 20040126264
    Abstract: A compressor having cylindrical shape vanes, in which the compressor comprises a cylinder assembly having a suction flow path and a discharge flow path connected to an inner space and having vane insertion holes penetrated as a circular shape at upper and lower surfaces thereof; a Z-plate for dividing the inner space into a plurality of compression spaces in the cylinder assembly and for making a fluid be sucked, compressed, and discharged by being rotated by a motor unit; and cylindrical shape vanes inserted to the vane insertion holes and contacted with both sides of the Z-plate for dividing the respective compression spaces into a suction region and a compression region by a reciprocal movement. In the compressor having cylindrical shape vanes, vanes are smoothly operated, a process for construction components is simplified, and its construction components are simple, thereby enhancing a reliability of a driving and enhancing its assembly productivity.

  • Publication number: 20030108438
    Abstract: A compressor including a cylinder assembly having a compression space through which suction passages and discharge passages are connected, a rotation driving unit inserted into the compression space of the cylinder assembly to transfer a rotation force, a slant compression slanted plate installed in the compression space to divide the compression space into at least two parts and rotating by being connected to the rotation driving unit, and vane units attached on both sides of the slant compression plate to classify the partitioned compression space into a suction space and a compression. With this construction, a vibration and a noise can be reduced and a stable driving force can be obtained even with a relatively small capacity electric motor. In addition, since fluid can be compressed and discharged simultaneously in both sides of the slant compression plate, an excellent compression performance can be accomplished in a simple structure.
