Vacuum cleaner
First Claim
1. A vacuum cleaner comprising:
- an electric blower;
an electric blower controller for controlling the electric blower;
an electric blower current detector for detecting at least a current flowing in the electric blower; and
a dust chamber provided at an upstream of the electric blower, for collecting dust particles sucked by the electric blower, wherein a predetermined level of a current is made to flow in the electric blower regardless of a dust particle amount in the dust chamber.

Abstract
A vacuum cleaner includes an electric blower; an electric blower controller for controlling the electric blower; an electric blower current detector for detecting at least a current flowing in the electric blower; and a dust chamber provided at an upstream of the electric blower, for collecting dust particles sucked by the electric blower. A predetermined level of a current is made to flow in the electric blower regardless of a dust particle amount in the dust chamber. Preferably, the vacuum cleaner further includes voltage detector for detecting a voltage of a power supply applied to the vacuum cleaner. More preferably, the vacuum cleaner further includes a frequency detector for detecting a frequency of a power supply applied to the vacuum cleaner.

2. A vacuum cleaner comprising:
-
an electric blower;
an electric blower controller for controlling the electric blower;
an electric motor for driving a rotational brush for brushing dust particles to be removed from a surface to be cleaned;
an electric motor controller for controlling the number of rotation of the electric motor;
a current detector for detecting at least a total current equal to a sum of a current flowing in the electric motor and a current flowing in the electric blower; and
a dust chamber provided at an upstream of the electric blower, for collecting dust particles sucked by the electric blower, wherein the total current is controlled to be maintained at a predetermined level regardless of a condition of the surface to be cleaned and a dust particle amount in the dust chamber. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19)
