1. A cleaner comprising a dust collecting device for separating dust from air, wherein the dust collecting device comprises:
- a dust collecting case comprising a dust discharging port configured to collect dust and discharge the collected dust when opened;
a discharge cover coupled to one side of the dust collecting case and configured to open and close the dust discharging port; and
a sealing member comprising;
a first portion provided to extend along an inner surface of the dust collecting case when the dust discharging port is closed,a second portion extending from the first portion and extending along a coupling surface of the dust collecting case when the dust discharging port is closed, anda third portion configured to contact the discharge cover,wherein the coupling surface is configured to move the second portion to contact the third portion to create a seal between the discharge cover and the dust collecting case when the dust discharging port is closed.

19. A cleaner comprising a dust collecting device for separating dust from air, wherein:
-
the dust collecting device comprises; a dust collecting case comprising a dust discharging port configured to collect dust and discharge the collected dust when opened; a discharge cover coupled to one side of the dust collecting case and configured to open and close the dust discharging port; and a sealing member comprising; a first portion configured to be in surface contact along a coupling surface of the dust collecting case when the dust discharging port is closed, a second portion extending from the first portion and extending along a coupling surface of the dust collecting case when the dust discharging port is closed, and a third portion configured to contact the discharge cover, wherein the coupling surface is configured to move the second portion to contact the third portion to create a seal between the dust collecting case and the discharge cover, the sealing member has a restoring force; and when the dust discharging port is switched from an opened state to a closed state, a shape of the sealing member is deformed to seal the dust collecting case and the discharge cover.
