Abstract: A brush assembly for a vacuum cleaner comprises a brush section including a suction opening and a suction space; a neck including a large-diameter section, the front part of which is inserted in the brush section, a cylindrical small-diameter section connected and incorporated to the large-diameter section through a shoulder, and a sound-absorbing material included in the large-diameter section and having a predetermined thickness, so that a cylindrical path is formed therein, which is interconnected to the suction space of the brush section; and a connector pipe including an expansion-pipe section, the diameter of which is enlarged so that the small-diameter section of the neck is interposed to be fixed in the expansion-pipe section, a cylindrical path formed therein, which is interconnected to the cylindrical path of the neck.

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner with noise and vibration greatly reduced is disclosed. The vacuum cleaner includes a blower assembly which comprises a vibration absorbing assembly for absorbing vibrations occurring due to high speed revolutions of electric blower, a noise shielding assembly for shielding the noise so as to prevent the noise from being propagated from the electric blower to outside of the vacuum cleaner, a flow path changing assembly for curving and extending a flow path by bending the flow path of air after passing through the electric blower, and a noise absorbing assembly suppressing the noise by absorbing the noise propagated through the flow path. The vacuum cleaner further includes a blower assembly receiving section, which shields and absorbs the noise.
