Abstract: A distribution unit for a dust separating apparatus of a vacuum cleaner is provided. The distribution unit distributes air and dust to the dust separation unit includes a body having an inlet for introducing the air and dust to the body, a plurality of branch passages for distributing the air introduced into the body to the dust separation unit, and a main passage for connecting the inlet with the branch passages, and wherein a passage cross-sectional area of the main passage at the branch passage is greater than a passage cross-sectional area of the inlet.

Abstract: A dust collection assembly of a vacuum cleaner is provided. The dust collection assembly includes a dust collecting box, a filter, a flow guide unit, an exhaust guider, and an upper cover. The dust collecting box and the flow guide unit are integrally formed in a single body. The dust collecting box includes a first and second dust collecting spaces for collecting foreign objects. The filter is disposed in the inside of the dust collecting space to primarily filter foreign objects during operation of a cyclone. The flow guide unit guides airflow and has small cyclones integrally formed therein, for secondarily filtering the foreign objects in air. The exhaust guider guides airflow and has a plurality of discharge holes through which air filtered by the small cyclone flows. The upper cover is disposed on the upper side of the exhaust guider.

Abstract: A dust collecting unit of a vacuum cleaner is provided. The dust collecting unit includes: a plurality of storing chambers and a plurality of filtering chambers provided in the inside of a multi-cyclone dust collecting unit. To improve reliability of the product, the storing chambers and the filtering chambers are integrally formed as one body.

Abstract: A dust collection unit for a vacuum cleaner includes a collection body having a plurality of filtering chambers different from each in a volume and a plurality of storing chambers storing foreign objects filtered in the filtering chambers, a bottom seal member defining a bottom of the collection body, and an exhaust member guiding airflow in the filtering chambers. The exhaust member contacts tops of the filtering chambers as well as an outer circumference of the collection body.

Abstract: A dust collection unit for a vacuum cleaner includes a first cylindrical filtering chamber for filtering foreign objects contained in air using a cyclone airflow, a plurality of second filtering chamber formed along an outer circumference of the first cylindrical filtering chamber to receive the air passed through the first cylindrical filtering chamber, a first storing chamber formed under the first filtering chamber to store the foreign objects filtered in the first filtering chamber, a second storing chamber for storing the foreign objects filtered in the second filtering chambers, and a connection plate interconnecting opposite ends of the second storing chamber to define the first filtering chamber, the connection plate having a lower end located to be higher than a lower end of the second storing chamber.

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner includes a dust collector which includes a first dust separator and a dust container in which a first dust storage unit is formed. A cover is coupled to the dust separating unit and is used to selectively open or close the dust storage unit. The cover is detached from the dust container together with the dust separating unit when the dust container is emptied. The vacuum cleaner may further include a second dust separator on the main body of the vacuum cleaner. In this instance, a second dust storage unit may be formed in the dust collector, and dust separated in the second dust separator may be stored in the second dust storage unit.
