What is the purpose of a vacuum cleaner
Vacuum cleaner is a machine which basically cleans the surface from dust and other debris including pet hairs. This surface could be floor, Walls, Stairs, upholstery and many more[1].
As commercially, they are used in large places such as offices or in industrial places[2]. These come in difference sizes, shapes and purposes such as Upright, Handheld, Canister, Drum and Robots.
The vacuum cleaners used for home have limited space to clean. Due to this reason cordless vacuum cleaners are gradually replacing wheeled Canister models.

The industrial model usually not preferred in cordless models due to large space and limited running time capered to model used at homes.
Vacums were initially designed in 19th Century to clean carpets by blowing the dirt present on the surface but later on suction function was introduced which is still in use.
Which vacuum has the best suction power depends on the usage. Vacuum cleaner comes in different types. However famous types are explained below.
The Upright vacuum cleaner are most common type and easily available in the shops. These are light weight and resemble like a long stick or rod. This type of vacuum cleaner consists of cleaning head, the machine and the collection box.
The dirt and other items are initially swept through cleaning head by rotating brushes followed by suction generated with the help of motor. The collected debris are transferred through stick and collected in the box placed under the handle. These are also called cordless vacuum cleaners.
This is most popular and all time favorite type widely used all over the world. In this type of vacuum cleaner, the cleaner head and stick are connected with machine and collection box through flexible pipe.
These types have larger storage capacity compared to upright models and come in different sizes. Large dirt collection boxes require more running time. Due to this reason, canisters are powered through cord unlike upright models.
These are similar to canister type however they are particularly used for industrial purposes. It consists of Drum which is used as collection or storage box.
These are light in weight and used for home and some time for cleaning cars. These come without cord and have small running time and storage. Although the battery is charged through power cord but they are used without cord.
These are mostly used for places where other types cannot work such as stairs, narrow space and in cars.
These types of vacuum cleaners are called automatic vacuum cleaners. These come in shape of round flat box. These are wifi enabled devices. In this type, human are not directly involved in cleaning process. Through apps, cleaning schedule is set. On pre assigned time, these automatically start working.
These are used for floors only unlike other types such as upright, handheld and canister. These are mostly use for cleaning places such as below sofa and other unreadable places to clear pet hair and dust on floor.
This is another type of vacuum cleaner in which no dirt bags are used. These types basically work on the principle of centrifugal force. The collection box is situated right on top of cleaning head.
A cyclone of air is created with vacuum cleaner motor rpm which suck the dust and other material. The dust and other debris is moved upward from surface due to vortex caused by machine and collected in collection box or chamber which is later emptied by removing from the device.
