Vacuum cleaner with above-floor cleaning tool

A vacuum cleaner comprising:

• a nozzle base comprising a primary suction opening and a secondary suction opening formed therein, said secondary suction opening being spaced from said primary suction opening;
• a suction source positioned within a first cavity defined in said nozzle base;
• a dust cup assembly releasably positioned in a second cavity defined in said nozzle base, said dust cup assembly defining a dirt and dust collecting chamber, said dust cup assembly comprising:
• a first inlet, said first inlet being in fluid communication with said primary suction opening,
• an outlet, said outlet being in fluid communication with said suction source, and
• a second inlet, said second inlet being in fluid communication with said secondary suction opening, and
• a handle assembly, said handle assembly comprising:
• an elongated connecting portion having a first end and a second end, wherein said elongated connecting portion is removably attached to said nozzle base at said first end, and
• a handle removably attached to said elongated connecting portion second end.

A vacuum cleaner comprising:

• a nozzle base comprising a first end and a second end;
• a first suction opening positioned adjacent said nozzle base first end;
• a second suction opening positioned adjacent said nozzle base second end;
• a suction source positioned within said nozzle base, said suction source being in fluid communication with said first and second suction openings;
• a dust cup assembly releasably connected to said nozzle base, said dust cup assembly defining a dirt and dust collecting chamber, said dust cup assembly comprising a first inlet communicating with said first suction opening and a second inlet, spaced from said first inlet, communicating with said second suction opening;
• and
• a handle pivotally connected to said nozzle base.

A vacuum cleaner comprising:

• a nozzle base including a first suction opening and a second suction opening spaced therefrom;
• a suction source located within said nozzle base, said suction source being in fluid communication with said first and second suction openings;
• an elongated connecting portion removably attached to said nozzle base;
• a dirt and dust collecting chamber located on said nozzle base, said dirt and dust collecting chamber comprising a first inlet communicating with said first suction opening, an outlet communicating with said suction source, and a second inlet communicating with said second suction opening;
• and
• an above-floor cleaning assembly comprising:
• a tool handle, said tool handle being removably attached to one end of said elongated connecting portion to also form a handle for the vacuum cleaner when so attached.

A vacuum cleaner comprising:

• a nozzle base comprising a primary suction opening and a secondary suction opening formed therein, said secondary suction opening being spaced from said primary suction opening;
• a suction source positioned in said nozzle base;
• a pair of wheels rotatably mounted to said nozzle base for moving said nozzle during vacuuming;
• a handle portion pivotably attached to said nozzle base;
• and
• a dust cup assembly releasably mounted to said nozzle base, said dust cup assembly defining a dirt and dust collecting chamber, said dust cup assembly comprising:
• a first inlet, said first inlet being in fluid communication with said primary suction opening,
• an outlet, said outlet being in fluid communication with said suction source, and
• a second inlet spaced from said first inlet, said second inlet being in fluid communication with said secondary suction opening.
