Abstract
The multi-cyclone dust separating apparatus includes a first cyclone unit having a body and including an air inlet disposed at a side of the body, a first cyclone chamber adapted to form a first space for whirling air from the air inlet to separate dust form the air; a second cyclone unit adapted to be detachably disposed at the body of the first cyclone unit and including, a second air inlet to draw the air from the first cyclone chamber, at least one cyclone for whirling the air from the first cyclone chamber to provide a second separation of dust from the air; and a dust bin adapted to be detachably mounted to at least one of the second cyclone unit and the first cyclone unit.

A multi-cyclone dust separating apparatus, comprising:
- a first cyclone unit having a body and including,
- an air inlet disposed at a side of the body,
- a first cyclone chamber adapted to form a first space for whirling air from the air inlet to separate dust from the air;
- a second cyclone unit adapted to be detachably disposed at the body of the first cyclone unit and including,
- a second air inlet to draw the air from the first cyclone chamber,
- at least one cyclone for whirling the air from the first cyclone chamber to provide
- a second separation of dust from the air;
- and
- a dust bin adapted to be detachably mounted to at least one of the second cyclone unit and the first cyclone unit.
A multi-cyclone dust separating apparatus, comprising:
- a first means for whirling air to separate dust from the air;
- a second means for whirling air adapted to be detachably disposed within the first means for whirling air and adapted for a second separation of dust from the air;
- and
- a means for collecting the dust from at least one of the first and second means for whirling.
A second cyclone unit shaped to be detachably disposed within a first cyclone unit of a multi-cyclone dust separating apparatus, the second cyclone unit comprising:
- at least one air inlet configured to draw air from the first cyclone unit and adapted to induce whirling in the air from the first cyclone unit;
- a cyclone body in communication with the at least one air inlet;
- and
- a dust bin adapted to be detachably mounted to the cyclone body.
