Abstract: A cordless vacuum cleaner including a structure mounted on transport members, a turbine carried by the structure, a beater brush secured to the structure and connected to a collector via a first duct, a suction device connected to the collector via a flexible second duct, means for selectively putting the first duct or the coupling for the second duct into communication with the collector, a first motor for driving the turbine, a second motor for driving the beater brush, an electrical circuit for powering the motors from a battery carried by said structure, and a three-position control member. When the control member is in a third position, the two motors are powered in series.
