Abstract

A suction tool for an electric cleaner of the present invention includes suction tool main body with suction inlet, rotary brush rotatably provided inside suction tool main body, brush body provided protruding from an outer periphery of rotary brush, and friction body rotatably provided to come into contact with brush body. This improves durability of brush body, and enables stable supply of negative ions to a cleaning surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A suction tool for an electric cleaner, comprising:
 a suction tool main body with a suction inlet;   a rotary brush rotatably provided inside the suction tool main body;   a brush body provided protruding from an outer periphery of the rotary brush; and   a friction body rotated by rotation of the brush body of the rotary brush.   
     
     
         2 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 the brush body is made of a material listed in the positive side of the triboelectric series, and at least a part of the friction body is made of another material in the negative side of the triboelectric series.   
     
     
         3 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 the brush body is made of a material listed in the negative side of the triboelectric series, and at least a part of the friction body is made of another material in the positive side of the triboelectric series.   
     
     
         4 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 the suction tool main body has a drive unit for rotating the rotary brush, and   the drive unit rotates the rotary brush counterclockwise when the suction tool main body is seen from a left side face of the suction tool main body.   
     
     
         5 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 a length of the friction body in the longitudinal direction is shorter than a length of the rotary brush in the longitudinal direction.   
     
     
         6 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 a plurality of pieces of the friction body is provided in the longitudinal direction.   
     
     
         7 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein
 the suction tool main body has a window for visual examination of the friction body from above the suction tool main body.   
     
     
         8 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 2  further comprising a plate made of a material listed in the negative side of the triboelectric series is provided on an outer periphery of the friction body. 
     
     
         9 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 3  further comprising a plate made of a material listed in the positive side of the triboelectric series is provided on an outer periphery of the friction body. 
     
     
         10 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 8 , wherein
 the plate is provided protruding from a surface of the friction body.   
     
     
         11 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 2  further comprising a board made of a material listed in the negative side of the triboelectric series is provided on a front part of the suction tool main body on a face opposing the rotary brush. 
     
     
         12 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 3  further comprising a board made of a material listed in the positive side of the triboelectric series is provided on a front part of the suction tool main body on a face opposing the rotary brush. 
     
     
         13 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1  further comprising a holding part is provided for detachably holding the friction body on the suction tool main body. 
     
     
         14 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 13 , wherein
 the holding part is provided inside the suction inlet of the suction tool main body such that the holding part forms a part of the suction inlet.   
     
     
         15 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 13 , wherein
 the holding part includes a buckle for detachably fixing the holding part onto the suction tool main body.   
     
     
         16 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 13 , wherein
 the friction body includes a friction main body and a shaft protruding from the friction main body for rotatably supporting the friction main body, the shaft including an insert on its one end and a holder on its other end;   the insert of the shaft of the friction body is held by the suction tool main body, and the holder of the shaft is held by the suction tool main body using the holding part; and   a length of the holder of the shaft is longer than a length of the insert of the shaft.   
     
     
         17 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 16  further comprising a rotation stopper is provided on one side of the shaft having the holder. 
     
     
         18 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 16  further comprising an antislip part is provided on one side of the shaft having the holder. 
     
     
         19 . An electric cleaner comprising:
 an electric cleaner main body with built-in electric blower for producing suction air; and   the suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 1 .   
     
     
         20 . The suction tool for an electric cleaner of  claim 9 , wherein the plate is provided protruding from a surface of the friction body.
