Abstract
A surface cleaning apparatus comprises an air flow path extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet and includes a cyclone bin assembly, a screen and a suction motor positioned in the air flow path. The screen is axially removable from the cyclone bin assembly.
Claims22
A surface cleaning apparatus comprising:
- (a) an air flow passage extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet;
- (b) a cyclone bin assembly positioned in the air flow passage and having a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal direction, a top end and a longitudinally spaced apart openable bottom end;
- (c) a screen positioned in the air flow passage;
- and,
- (d) a suction motor positioned in the air flow passage downstream from the screen,
- wherein the screen is axially removable from the cyclone bin assembly and, when positioned in the cyclone bin assembly, the screen is suspended in the cyclone bin assembly from a fixed wall of the cyclone bin assembly.
