Vacuum cleaner
First Claim
1. A vacuum cleaner comprising:
- a cleaner body;
a dust container that is located at the cleaner body, at least a portion of the dust container being exposed to an outside of the cleaner body through a front surface of the cleaner body;
a cover member that is connected to the cleaner body and that is configured to selectively cover an upper portion of the dust container;
a suction hose that is configured to receive dust through a suction part at one end and that is connected to a front end of the cover member at the other end;
a grip portion that is located at the cover member and that is configured to be gripped by a user to open and close the cover member; and
a locking assembly that is located inside the cover member and that is configured to selectively lock the cover member to the cleaner body or release the cover member from the cleaner body,wherein the cover member comprises;
a cover base that is configured to cover an upper surface of the cleaner body, the cover base including a cover restricting protrusion that protrudes outward from an outer surface of the cover base, andan outer cover that is coupled to the cover base and that defines a space for accommodating the locking assembly and a sensor configured to check an obstacle disposed outside of the cleaner body, the outer cover defining a protrusion entrance that passes through a side surface of the outer cover and is configured to receive the cover restricting protrusion to allow the cover restricting protrusion to protrude outward relative to the side surface of the outer cover,wherein the cleaner body defines a protrusion restricting hole disposed at an inside surface of the cleaner body and configured to receive the cover restricting protrusion protruding outward relative to the side surface of the outer cover, the inside surface of the cleaner body being configured to cover the side surface of the outer cover and the outer surface of the cover base, andwherein the cover restricting protrusion is configured to, based on the cover restricting protrusion passing through the protrusion entrance of the outer cover, protrude outward relative to an outer circumference of the outer cover and insert into the protrusion restricting hole of the cleaner body.
