  • Publication number: 20220241918
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a dust container arrangement (15, 120, 210) adapted to be fluidly coupled to a fan arrangement (13) comprised in a power tool (1) via an at least partly flexible dust conduit (14). The dust container arrangement (15, 120, 210) comprises a frame (100, 126) which in turn comprises a holder part (102, 123) with a container inlet (101, 125). The dust container arrangement (15, 120, 210) further comprises a first container (107, 121) and a second container (108), which containers (107, 108; 121) are releasably attached to the holder part (102, 123) in a sealed manner. The first container (107, 121) is air-permeable such that air (A1) that is blown into the container inlet (101, 125) is permitted to escape through a wall (115 132) of the first container (107, 121), while the second container (108) is air-tight during operation and adapted to receive dust (113A, 113B, 113C) that is brought into the container inlet (101, 125).
