  • the improvement in which the inlet has a flank facing but spaced from the outlet by a gap defined by and between said flank and said outlet and communicating between the ambient air and the interior of the cyclone, through which gap ambient air is inducted by the dust-laden air that enters through the inlet, and an arcuate baffle between the inducted air and the dust-laden air in the inlet, the baffle being arcuate in the same direction as the outer wall of the cyclone to deflect the inducted air into the same direction in which the dust-laden air from the inlet rotates in the cyclone.
