Front brush attachment device for vacuum cleaner

A front brush attachment device for a vacuum cleaner comprising:

• a. a multi component housing having a bottom side, a stop surface, and a protrusion;
• b. a brush roller chamber disposed within said multi-component housing and open on said bottom side of said multi-component housing;
• c. a suction duct disposed within said multi-component housing that feeds into said brush roller chamber;
• d. a rotationally driven brush roller supported in a rotating manner in said brush roller chamber;
• e. a spring-loaded locking lever, supported on said multi-component housing;
• and
• f. a rotating and tilting joint, connecting said multi-component housing to a vacuum cleaner, comprising:
• i. a tilting joint piece having a shoulder on its periphery, wherein said tilting joint piece is inserted into said suction duct and supported in a rotational manner about an axle aligned transversely in relation to said suction duct;
• ii. a rotatable joint tube coupled to said tilting joint piece with rotational mobility, wherein a recess is disposed on the connection end of said short rotatable joint tube;
• and
• iii. a cylindrical connector piece that couples said rotatable joint tube to said tilting joint piece and permits rotation of said rotatable joint tube;
• wherein said rotating and tilting joint may be directed into a locked position at said stop surface of said multi-component housing by an upwardly directed pivotal movement, and wherein in said locked position said protrusion engages said recess locking and securing said short rotatable joint tube against rotation, while said spring-loaded locking lever engages said shoulder, preventing tilting of said tilting joint piece.
