Abstract

When the vacuum cleaner approaches a wall etc., the right cover 41 moves so as to project to the outside from a bumper 3. A part of the suction port body 2 expands to the side, and an expansion space A covered by the right cover 41 is formed on the right-hand side of the suction port body. Dust and dirt on a floor surface facing to this space are sucked through a main suction port 20. Also, side suction ports 34 made of a flexible material are communicatingly formed in both end portions at the right and the left of a dust suction chamber 18 of the suction port body 2 so that dust and dirt is also sucked through the side suction port 34 when the side of wall is cleaned. The side suction port 34 is formed so as to project to the side from the overall width of a cleaner body, so that dust and dirt at the side are easily sucked for cleaning when the vacuum cleaner runs along the side of wall etc.
