Abstract

A vacuum cleaner comprising a housing containing a housing part for receiving components of electrical appliances, and a dust compartment which can be closed by a dust compartment cover that is mounted in such a way that it can pivot between a position wherein the dust compartment is closed and a position wherein the dust compartment is opened. Said cover is provided with a socket for the electrical supply of additional appliances, said socket being connected to an electrical line leading out of the housing part. The aim of the invention is to ensure the operating safety of the inventive vacuum cleaner over a very long period of time. To this end, the housing is provided with a compartment for automatically inserting a section of the electrical line during the pivoting of the dust compartment cover from the opening position to the closing position.
