Cleaner hose

A cleaner hose, comprising:

• an elongated hose body including a reinforcement wire material and a hose wall, said reinforcement wire material being wound spirally and continuously over a whole length of said hose body, said hose body including a first end portion and a second end portion;
• a first connection cylinder operative for connection to a cleaner operating pipe, said first connection cylinder being attached to said first end portion of said hose body;
• and
• a second connection cylinder operative for attachment to a cleaner body, said second connection cylinder being attached to said second end portion of said hose body;
• wherein said reinforcement wire material is shaped like a steeply slanted spiral in a portion of said hose body near at least one of said first end portion and said second end portion of said hose body so that first adjacent spiral portions of said reinforcement wire material are close to each other while said hose wall is loosened toward an inner circumferential surface of said hose body;
• and
• wherein said reinforcement wire material is shaped like a gently slanted spiral in an intermediate portion of said hose body except said at least one of said first end portion and said second end portion of said hose body so that second adjacent spiral portions of said reinforcement wire material are separated from each other in an axial direction of said hose body,
• said cleaner hose further comprising:
• a conductive wire;
• and a resin layer covering said reinforcement wire material and said conductive wire, said conductive wire being disposed adjacent to and parallel to said reinforcement wire material with an interval between said conductive wire and said reinforcement wire material, said resin layer having a recessed thin portion at a position between said reinforcement wire material and said conductive wire so that said reinforcement wire material and said conductive wire covered with said resin layer are easily separated from each other.
