Vacuum cleaner station, vacuum cleaner system, and method for controlling vacuum cleaner station

Abstract

A cleaner system includes: a cleaner; a cleaner station; and an imaginary plane including an imaginary suction flow path through line penetrating a suction flow path in a longitudinal direction and an imaginary suction motor axis defined by extending a rotation axis of a suction motor, in which when the cleaner is coupled to the cleaner station, the plane penetrates at least a part of the cleaner station, such that a center of gravity of the cleaner is disposed to pass through a space for maintaining balance of the station, and as a result, it is possible to stably support the cleaner and the station while preventing the cleaner and the station from falling down.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cleaner system comprising:
 a suction part that defines a suction flow path configured to receive air,   a suction motor configured to rotate about a rotation axis to thereby generate suction force for suctioning the air through the suction part,   a cyclone configured to separate dust from the air introduced through the suction part, and   a dust bin configured to store the dust separated by the cyclone; and   a cleaner station comprising:
 a housing, 
 a dust collecting part configured to collect the dust suctioned from the dust bin, 
 a dust collecting motor accommodated in the housing and configured to generate a suction force for suctioning the dust in the dust bin into the dust collecting part, 
   wherein an extension of a longitudinal axis of the dust bin intersects a longitudinal axis of the cleaner station based on the dust bin being seated on the cleaner station, and   wherein a flow path part connecting the dust bin and the dust collecting part is formed in the cleaner station based on the dust bin being seated on the cleaner station.   
     
     
         2 . The cleaner system of  claim 1 , wherein the flow path part is a flow path downward from the dust bin. 
     
     
         3 . The cleaner system of  claim 1 , wherein the flow path part is connected to an inside of the dust bin when a discharge cover of the dust bin is opened. 
     
     
         4 . The cleaner system of  claim 1 , wherein the cleaner station further comprises a dust passage hole configured to communicate with the flow path part, and
 wherein the dust passage hole is disposed to face the dust bin, and the dust passage hole is connected to an inside of the dust bin when a discharge cover of the dust bin is opened.   
     
     
         5 . The cleaner system of  claim 1 , wherein the flow path part comprises a first flow path part configured to connect to the dust bin, and a second flow path part configured to connect the first flow path part and the dust collecting part, and
 wherein the extension of the longitudinal axis of the dust bin penetrates the first flow path part based on the dust bin being seated on the cleaner station.   
     
     
         6 . The cleaner system of  claim 5 , wherein the second flow path part is inclined with respect to the first flow path part. 
     
     
         7 . The cleaner system of  claim 5 , wherein the first flow path part and the second flow path part are connected, and the first flow path part is disposed higher from a ground surface than the second flow path part. 
     
     
         8 . The cleaner system of  claim 5 , wherein the extension of the longitudinal axis of the dust bin intersects an extension of the second flow path part. 
     
     
         9 . The cleaner system of  claim 5 , wherein a length of the first flow path part is less than a length of the second flow path part. 
     
     
         10 . The cleaner system of  claim 5 , wherein the second flow path part is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the suction part based on the dust bin being seated on the cleaner station. 
     
     
         11 . The cleaner system of  claim 1 , wherein the cleaner station further comprises a sealer configured to seat an outer circumferential surface of the dust bin. 
     
     
         12 . The cleaner system of  claim 11 , wherein the dust collecting motor is configured to rotate about a dust collecting motor axis,
 wherein the suction flow path extends in a longitudinal axis of the suction part, and   wherein, based on the dust bin being seated on the sealer, the sealer is disposed between the dust collecting motor axis and the longitudinal axis of the suction part.   
     
     
         13 . The cleaner system of  claim 12 , wherein the dust collecting motor axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the suction part. 
     
     
         14 . The cleaner system of  claim 12 , wherein the dust collecting motor axis intersects the rotation axis of the suction motor.
