Multifunction vacuum cleaner

Abstract

Ae multifunction vacuum cleaner includes a container body, which houses a suction unit of air flows from the outside; a filter of the air flows sucked from the outside; an accumulation tank of materials sucked from the outside and filtered by the filter; and a steam production unit and a system sending steam to the outside of the container body.

The invention claimed is: 
     
         1 . A multifunction vacuum cleaner ( 1 ) comprising:
 a container body ( 2 ,  3 ), in which the following are disposed:   a suction unit ( 6 ) of air flows and materials from an outside;   an inlet ( 10 ) and an outlet ( 20 ) of the air flows;   a filtration path of the air flows and the materials sucked by said suction unit ( 6 ) defined between said inlet ( 10 ) and said outlet ( 20 );   a filter (V 1 ) of the air flows arranged along said filtration path;   a storage tank ( 11 ) of the materials sucked from the outside and filtered by said filter;   a steam production unit ( 23 ) arranged in said container body; and   a transport system ( 28 ,  29 ) to the outside of said container body of produced steam by the steam production unit.   
     
     
         2 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , wherein said container body comprises a first half-shell ( 2 ) and a second half-shell ( 39 ) constrained to each other in a separable way. 
     
     
         3 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , wherein said container body comprises a sound-proofing system ( 16 ) of at least said suction unit ( 6 ). 
     
     
         4 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , further comprising at least one emitting unit emitter ( 15 ,  15 A) of UV-C rays arranged in proximity to said filter (V 1 ). 
     
     
         5 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , wherein said steam production unit comprises:
 at least one loading tank ( 17 ) of a liquid to be vaporized;   a heating and vaporizing boiler ( 23 ) of said liquid to be vaporized; and   a pump ( 26 ) of said liquid to be vaporized from said at least one loading tank to said heating and vaporizing boiler.   
     
     
         6 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 3 , wherein said sound-proofing system comprises a capsule ( 16 ) made of a polyurethane material disposed peripherally to at least said suction unit ( 6 ). 
     
     
         7 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 5 , wherein said container body comprises at least a connecting socket ( 29 ) to steam user apparatuses connected to said boiler. 
     
     
         8 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 3 , wherein, in said sound-proofing system, through channels ( 18 ) of the sucked air flows are defined. 
     
     
         9 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , wherein said steam production unit comprises at least a probe ( 25 ) to detect a volume of a liquid to be vaporized. 
     
     
         10 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , further comprising a container ( 33 ) and a dispenser of substances selected from the group consisting of detergent substances, ionizing substances, and fragrance substances. 
     
     
         11 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , further comprising a separator ( 9 ) adapted to separate said materials sucked from said sucked air flows. 
     
     
         12 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 1 , further comprising an electronic operating control system equipped with selectable operating programs for a single or combined activation. 
     
     
         13 . The multifunction vacuum cleaner as in  claim 12 , wherein said operating programs include an operating program as a vacuum cleaner, an operating program as a steam source, and an operating program as unit for sanitizing environments.
