Vacuum cleaner base plate assembly
First Claim
1. A vacuum cleaner base plate assembly, comprising:
- a vacuum cleaner base plate adapted to fit to a chassis bottom of a vacuum cleaner, with the vacuum cleaner base plate including one or more nozzle apertures;
one or more trapped components configured to rest against the vacuum cleaner base plate;
a vacuum cleaner skid plate that fits to the vacuum cleaner base plate and that holds the one or more tapped components against the vacuum cleaner base plate when the vacuum cleaner skid plate is assembled to the vacuum cleaner base plate; and
one or more fasteners that removably affix the vacuum cleaner skid plate to the vacuum cleaner base plate, wherein the vacuum cleaner skid plate and the one or more trapped components are removably affixed to the vacuum cleaner base plate by the vacuum cleaner skid plate and the one or more fasteners.
