Abstract
A trap for use with a vacuum cleaner includes a trap body formed in a substantially cylindrical shape. The trap body includes a suction opening formed at one axial end to suck in a target to be trapped and an insertion opening formed at the other end to be inserted into a vacuum cleaner. An adhesive is provided on at least a portion of an inner surface of the trap body. The trap for use with a vacuum cleaner includes a net portion. The net portion blocks a plane orthogonal to an axial direction of the trap body. The net portion includes a net formed in at least a portion to transmit air sucked in through the suction opening. The trap body includes a protrusion formed on at least a portion in a circumferential direction of an outer surface thereof to protrude outward.

A trap for use with a vacuum cleaner that is detachably attached to a suction hose of the vacuum cleaner to trap a target to be trapped by utilizing a suction force of the vacuum cleaner, the trap comprising:
- a trap body with a substantially cylindrical shape, the trap body including a suction opening formed at one end to suck in the target to be trapped and an insertion opening formed at an other end to be inserted into the suction hose of the vacuum cleaner;
- and
- a net portion mounted to the trap body to block a plane orthogonal to an axial direction of the trap body, and including a net formed in at least a portion to transmit air sucked in through the suction opening, wherein
- the trap body includes, in an axially central portion, a protrusion formed on at least a portion in a circumferential direction of an outer surface thereof to protrude outward,
- an adhesive is provided on at least a portion of an inner surface of the trap body,
- at least one first recessed groove, extending axially and recessed radially inward, is formed near the insertion opening of the trap body,
- at least one liquid leak prevention groove, extending circumferentially and bulging radially outward, is formed near the suction opening of the trap body,
- the protrusion has an inner space communicating with an inner space of the trap body, and
- the adhesive is also provided on an inner surface that forms the inner space of the protrusion.
