Abstract

The float ( 5 ) on which a magnet ( 6 ) is placed is located at the bottom of the water tank ( 3 ) and is connected in the said water tank ( 3 ) with an articulated coupling in order to determine the amount of water that can be received in the water tank ( 3 ). The wet debris picked up by the wet and dry horizontal vacuum cleaner are collected in the water tank ( 3 ) and the motor ( 19 ) is stopped when the volumetric capacity of the wet debris from overflowing and to avoid liquid leakage into the motor compartment. In order to achive this a magnet ( 6 ) is placed on the float ( 5 ) and a reed relay ( 7 ) located at the back side of the upper body ( 2 ) at a distance suitable to detect the posiiton of said magnet ( 6 ), are used.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A wet and dry, horizontal vacuum cleaner, characterized with a float ( 5 ) with a magnet ( 6 ) placed on it, that is located at the bottom of the water tank ( 3 ) and is connected in the said water tank ( 3 ) with an articulated coupling, in order to determine the amount of water that can be received in the water tank ( 3 ).  
     
     
         2 . A wet and dry, horizontal vacuum cleaner, as defined in  claim 1 , characterized with a Reed relay ( 7 ) located at the back side of the upper body ( 2 ) at a distance suitable to detect the position of the said magnet ( 6 ).  
     
     
         3 . A wet and dry, horizontal vacuum cleaner as defined in claims  1  and  2 , characterized with a lock relay wherein the control knob ( 13 ) controlled by the user provides the starting/stopping or realizing the desired degree of a suction, by sending signals to the electronic control unit, to which the Reed relay that detects the movement of the float ( 5 ) with the magnet ( 6 ) mounted on it is electrically connected, and which provides the control of the wet and dry horizontal vacuum cleaner by stopping the motor ( 19 ) when the volumetric capacity of the wet debris is reached as determined by the manufacturer, in order to prevent wet debris from overflowing and to avoid liquid leakage into the motor compartment.  
     
     
         4 . A wet and dry, horizontal vacuum cleaner, as defined in  claim 1  to  3 , characterized with the lock relay which provides the control of a wet and dry, horizontal vacuum cleaner as, when the amount of wet debris collected in the water tank ( 3 ) reaches the upper limit of the level permitted by the manufacturer, the float ( 5 ) placed within the water tank ( 3 ), with a magnet ( 6 ) on the top, rises and the magnet ( 6 ) activates the Reed relay ( 7 ) and the activated Reed relay ( 7 ) in turn activates the lock relay at the electronic control unit, and stops the motor ( 19 ) independently of the user.
