Vacuum cleaner attachment for animal grooming includes brush with rotating head for collection and removal of animal hair

摘要

The brush for brushing animal fur is connected to the end of a vacuum cleaner hose (3) and comprises a hollow base (5) and a plane cover. Projecting filaments (8) attached to the solid parts of the cover form teeth or bristles for the brush. The filaments can be rotated, so that they project for cleaning, and are then turned inwards to remove hair. The brush for brushing animal fur is connected to the end of a vacuum cleaner hose (3) and comprises a first hollow part forming a base (5). A second part (6) forms a plane cover for this base, and is provided with apertures (7). Projecting filaments (8) attached to the solid parts of the cover form teeth or bristles for the brush. The filaments are mounted so that they can either extend outside the chamber as comb teeth, or extend inside the chamber. The filaments can extend outwards during the initial stage of brushing, and then the support can be rotated about a longitudinal axis so that they extend inwards so that the accumulated hair is drawn into the chamber and hence through the vacuum cleaner hose (3).
