Dustpan apparatus integrated with vacuum assembly

Abstract

The present invention discloses a dustpan apparatus integrated with a vacuum assembly. The apparatus comprises a dust collector assembly having a top wall, a bottom wall and a rear wall. At least a portion of a periphery of the top wall, the bottom wall and the rear wall adjoins to define a vacuum housing having a front suction inlet. Further, the top wall defines a dust pan configuration. The apparatus further comprises a handle attached to the dust collector assembly. Further, a motor assembly disposed at the handle is in fluid communication with the suction inlet of the vacuum housing. A filter assembly is disposed between the vacuum housing and the motor assembly. The motor assembly is configured to generate an air stream from the suction inlet to the vacuum housing, thereby enabling suction of debris via the suction inlet.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A dustpan apparatus integrated with a vacuum assembly, comprising:
 a dust collector assembly having a top wall, a bottom wall and a rear wall, wherein at least a portion of a periphery of the top wall, the bottom wall and the rear wall adjoins to define a vacuum housing having a front suction inlet, wherein the top wall defines a dust pan configuration;   a handle attached to the dust collector assembly;   a motor assembly in fluid communication with the suction inlet of the vacuum housing;   a motherboard connected to the motor assembly, and   a filter assembly disposed between the vacuum housing and the motor assembly,   wherein the motor assembly is configured to generate an air stream from the suction inlet to the vacuum housing, thereby enabling suction of debris via the suction inlet.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the handle extends from the rear wall of the dust collector assembly in substantially a C-shaped configuration. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the motor assembly is disposed within the handle. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprises a rechargeable power source assembly configured to supply power to the apparatus, wherein the power source assembly is disposed as a portion of the handle and configured to detach from the handle, wherein the power source assembly is connected to the motherboard and the motor assembly. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the power source assembly comprises a housing, a power source disposed within the housing, at least one AC to DC transformer and one or more electrical connectors, wherein the electrical connector extends from an exterior side of the housing. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the electrical connector is movable between an extended position and a storage position, wherein the electrical connector is configured to rest in a groove defined on the housing in the storage position, and the electrical connector is configured to pivotally move away from the groove to the extended position. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the top wall extends beyond an end portion of the bottom wall and terminates at an angle downwards with respect to the bottom wall to form a beveled edge to facilitate to sweep dust over the dust pan configuration with ease. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein a portion of the bottom wall defined as a detachably base. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the rear wall comprises an opening and the filter assembly is removably disposed at the opening, wherein the filter assembly is configured to slide and detach from the rear wall after removal of the base. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the handle comprises a front portion attached to the rear wall of the dust collector assembly. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the front portion comprises a plurality of apertures configured to fluidly connect the motor assembly to the vacuum housing. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprises one or more indicators configured to indicate a capacity of the power source and charging status of the power source. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprises a floor grip disposed at a base of the handle configured to provide grip while the apparatus is placed on a surface. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the power source assembly comprises a tap extending from the housing, wherein the tab enables to detach the power source assembly from the handle. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprises a switch connected to the motherboard to enable to control an operation of the apparatus, wherein the switch is disposed at a top portion of the handle.
