Abstract: A cyclone separator for a suction cleaning appliance is provided, including a separating container for separating cleaning liquid drawn in by suction, with an inlet through which suction air and cleaning liquid can be drawn by suction into an interior of the separating container, thereby forming a cyclone, a suction extraction line extending into the interior and connectable to a suction unit, with an outlet through which suction air can be drawn out of the interior, and a partition wall shielding the outlet from cleaning liquid, a space being provided between an inner wall of the separating container and the partition wall. The cyclone separator can include at least one transfer element arranged between the partition wall and the inner wall for transferring cleaning liquid from the partition wall to the inner wall, the transfer element bridging the space except for a maximum remaining space of 2 millimeters.
