ELECTRIC VACUUM CLEANER

According to the present invention, there can be provided an electric vacuum cleaner with excellent maintenance property, wherein: since dusts are compressed inside a bevel part, collected amount of dusts can be increased and floating return of dusts from a dust collection accumulation part to a collection separation part is suppressed, dust separation properties are improved and hair is prevented from being tangled to an air intake part; since dusts are compressed inside the bevel part, upward floating of dusts is suppressed during discharge of dusts; and since dusts adhered to a bypass filter (filter 2) are discharged simultaneously with the disposal of dusts, labor for filter cleaning can be reduced. A dust collection device for this electric vacuum cleaner has: an air intake part having a substantially cylindrical first filter on an upper section of an inner barrel; and an opened bevel part below the air intake part, wherein the air intake part and the bevel part communicate with each other via a second f
