Title:
SURFACE CLEANING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005104811
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A surface cleaning device 20 and 22 is used with a vacuum cleaner nozzle inlet 52 to clean a selected surface profile 84, includes a housing 24 with a surrounding sidewall 38 defining housing interiors 28 and 30. A divider 40 is disposed within the housing interiors 28 and 30, to separate into a first 28 and second 30 housing interior. The surrounding sidewall 38 terminates in a first opening 32 communicating between the first housing interior 28 and an exterior environment 36 and a second opening 34 communicating between the second housing interior 30 and the exterior environment 36. The first 32 and second 34 openings are approximately matched in profiles 33 and 35 to respective selected surface profiles 84 to clean. A divider aperture collar 42 is adjacent to the divider 40 forming a fluid communication between the first 28 and second 30 housing interiors. The divider aperture collar 42 is removably engagable to the nozzle 52 to create a substantially fluid tight communication selectively between either the first housing interior 28 and the nozzle 52 or the second housing interior 30 and the nozzle 52.
