A vacuum cleaner with a housing, in which a dust collection chamber is arranged, which is able to be closed by a dust chamber cover on which a cover release element for a clip element is provided which interoperates with a counter-clip element of the housing to hold the dust chamber cover in a closed position, wherein the cover release element is integrated flush into the contour of the dust chamber cover and is to be released by pressing it, wherein the cover release element is embodied in one piece with the dust chamber cover, and wherein the cover release element forms a movable actuation tongue molded onto the dust chamber cover to leave a separating gap running over a part of an area between the cover release element and the dust chamber cover.
A vacuum cleaner comprising:
- a housing having a counter-clip element;
- a dust collection chamber disposed within the housing;
- and a dust chamber cover for closing the dust collection chamber and having a cover release element with a clip element engaging the counter-clip element of the housing to hold the dust chamber cover in a closed position, the cover release element being integrated flush into the contour of the dust chamber cover and being releasable by a pressing action, wherein the cover release element is embodied in one piece with the dust chamber cover, and wherein the cover release element forms a movable actuation tongue molded onto the dust chamber cover to leave a separating gap running over a part of an area between the cover release element and the dust chamber cover.
