Abstract: A convenience light with a supplemental electrical outlet is provided. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a housing, a first light source to emit light when the apparatus is coupled to a conventional electrical outlet, and a supplemental electrical outlet having at least the same amount of electrical receptacles as the conventional electrical outlet to which the apparatus is coupled. In another embodiment, the first light source selectively emits light and the apparatus also includes a control device to control when the light source emits light. In yet another embodiment, the supplemental electrical outlet selectively provides access to electrical power associated with the conventional electrical outlet and the apparatus also includes a control device to control when the supplemental electrical outlet provides access to the electrical power.

Abstract: An upright vacuum cleaner includes an upright housing section and a nozzle section. A cyclonic airflow dirt and dust separating chamber is defined in said upright housing section. A suction source pulls air and entrained dirt, dust, and other contaminants through a main suction opening formed in the underside of the nozzle and into the cyclonic airflow chamber. The cyclonic airflow chamber causes the suction airstream to travel in a cyclonic path such that the entrained contaminants are separated therefrom and deposited into a dirt container that defines the chamber. A main filter element filters residual contaminants from the suction airstream between the chamber and the suction source. The main filter element is preferably made from high-density polyethylene porous filter media.

Abstract: An upright vacuum cleaner (A) includes an upright housing section (B) and a nozzle section (C). A cyclonic airflow dirt and dust separating chamber (54) is defined in said upright housing section. A suction source (E) pulls air and entrained dirt, dust, and other contaminants through a main suction opening (26) formed in the underside (24) of the nozzle and into the cyclonic airflow chamber (54). The cyclonic airflow chamber causes the suction airstream to travel in a cyclonic path such that the entrained contaminants are separated therefrom and deposited into a dirt container (52) that defines the chamber (54). A main filter element (K) filters residual contaminants from the suction airstream between the chamber and the suction source. The main filter element is preferably made from high-density polyethylene porous filter media.
