Zusammenfassung:A vacuum cleaner includes a floor nozzle, a handle, a hand nozzle that can be stored at least partially in the handle, and a backbone between the floor nozzle and the handle. The vacuum cleaner further includes a motor and dustcup on the backbone. Air flow conduits define a first air flow path between the dustcup and the floor nozzle and a second air flow path between the hand nozzle and the dustcup. A flow valve is operable between an open position and a closed position based on the position of the backbone relative to the floor nozzle. When the valve is in the open position, the first air flow path is open to the floor nozzle; when the valve is in the closed position, the first air flow path is closed to the floor nozzle, focusing suction to the hand nozzle.
