CA 2248375

A vacuum cleaner (10) includes a housing (14), an agitator brush (40) mounted for relative rotation in the housing (14) and a motor (30) including a shaft (42) for driving the agitator brush (40). A flexible belt (44) connects the drive shaft (42) of the motor (30) to the agitator brush (40). Further, a mechanism (50) is provided for disconnecting the belt (44) from either the motor drive shaft (42) or the agitator brush (40). That mechanism (50) includes an element or lug (54) carried on a shifter (52) and an actuator (56) for selectively displacing the shifter (52) and element/lug (54) carried thereon between a first position wherein the element/lug (54) is out of engagement with said belt (44) and a second position wherein the element/lug (54) engages the belt (44), thereby forcing the belt (44) out of engagement with either the motor drive shaft (42) or the agitator brush (40).

L'invention porte sur un aspirateur (10) comprenant un corps (14), une brosse de battage (40) montée de façon à effectuer une rotation relative dans le corps (14), et un moteur (30) comprenant un arbre (42) entraînant la brosse de battage (40). Une courroie flexible (44) raccorde l'arbre d'entraînement (42) du moteur à la brosse de battage (40). D'autre part, un mécanisme< >(50) permet de déconnecter la courroie (44) soit de l'arbre d'entraînement (42) du moteur, soit de la brosse de battage (40). Ce mécanisme (50) comprend un élément ou oreille (54) supportée par un levier de déplacement (52) et un actionneur (56) qui permet de déplacer sélectivement le levier (52) et l'élément/oreille (54) entre une première position dans laquelle l'élément/oreille (54) est dégagé de la courroie (44) et une seconde position dans laquelle l'élément/oreille (54) vient en contact avec la courroie (44), dégageant celle-ci soit de l'arbre d'entraînement (42) du moteur, soit de la brosse de battage (40).
