Abstract
This invention is a compressed air vaccum that attaches to an air hose and forces air down the handle. The air is then is forced through a venture, which causes vacuum to occur. It has a baffle deflection piece that stops the liquid and debris from coming up into the venture thus allowing the debris and liquid material to be dropped back into the canister of the vacuum. The handle, venture, and baffle are all one piece. The canister with the pick up tube for sucking is a separate piece and then they snap together. The canister is removable from the handle peice for easy clean up.
Claims3
This invention is a compressed air vacuum used by attaching compressed air into it to pick up things such as found in mechanics shops like antifreeze, oil spills, transmission fluid and also debris.
The debris and liquid are not intended to be caught in a vacuum bag but instead in the canister itself. This is because of the unique baffle deflection.
The canister is separate from the rest of the vacuum for easy clean up and disposal of debris and liquid.
