US Patent 11992170 Wearable vacuum cleaner

A wearable vacuum cleaner includes a harness configured to support the wearable vacuum cleaner on a user's back, a housing connected to the harness, a suction motor assembly disposed within the housing and operable to create a working airflow, and a collection bin configured to receive debris separated from the working airflow. The collection bin includes an opening adjacent a bottom portion of the collection bin and a lid moveably coupled to the collection bin to selectively cover the opening in a closed position and uncover the opening in an open position. The lid is movable to the open position to empty the contents of the collection bin through the opening while the collection bin remains attached to the housing.
