BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The filter is composed of a dense part where air does not easily flow and a sparse part where air flows easily.The flow in the passage should be arranged so that a high-speed flow passes through a dense part and a low-speed flow passes through a sparse part.

Since the flow velocity of the air flow becomes uniform, generation of turbulence can be prevented and noise can be reduced. In addition, the smooth flow of air is not hindered, so that the pressure loss can be reduced.

The flow of air generated by the rotation of the filter is collected in a sparse portion where the flow is easy to flow, and the noise having a non-uniform flow velocity is forcibly collected and rectified in the center of the filter to reduce noise. Further, since the flow velocity of the air flow after passing through the filter becomes uniform, generation of turbulence can be prevented and pressure loss can be reduced.

According to the invention of claim 5 of the present invention, a plurality of filters having density are arranged so that density is alternated in the direction of air flow. The flow avoids dense parts that are difficult to flow, and passes through sparse parts that are easy to flow, so the exhaust flow path becomes long in a meandering shape without taking a large space, and during this time the exhaust sound is attenuated and noise is reduced. Is performed.

According to the invention of claim 6 of the present invention, the electric blower for sucking dust and the dust collecting chamber on the suction side thereof are provided.
The filter according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein a flow having a high flow velocity in a suction side or an exhaust side passage of the electric blower passes through a dense part, and a flow having a low flow velocity passes through a sparse part. Since the air flow velocity after passing through the filter becomes uniform, turbulence can be prevented and noise can be reduced, and the smooth air flow is not hindered. Therefore, a vacuum cleaner having a strong suction force can be provided.
