A vacuum cleaner (also simply known as vacuum or hoover in colloquial British English and a sweeper in eastern US dialects such as Pittsburgh English) is a device that uses an air pump to create a partial vacuum to suck up dust and dirt, usually from floors.
Daniel Hess of West Union, Iowa, invented the first vacuum cleaner in 1860. Calling it a carpet sweeper instead of a vacuum cleaner, his machine did, in fact, have a rotating brush like a traditional vacuum cleaner, which also possessed an elaborate bellows mechanism on top of the body to generate suction of dust and dirt. Hess received a patent for his invention of the first vacuum cleaner on July 10, 1860.
The first manually-powered cleaner using vacuum principles was the "Whirlwind", invented in Chicago in 1868 by Ives W. McGaffey.
In 1876, Melville Bissell of Grand Rapids, Michigan created a vacuum cleaner for his wife, Anna, to clean up sawdust in carpeting(this is what I mean, the magic of love) Shortly after, Bissell Carpet Sweepers were born. [3] In 1899 the first motor-driven vacuum cleaner was invented by John Thurman.
The first powered cleaner employing a vacuum was patented and produced by British inventor Hubert Cecil Booth in 1901. Booth started the British Vacuum Cleaner Company and refined his invention over the next several decades.
In 1910 P.A. Fisker patented a vacuum cleaner using a name based on the company’s telegram address—Nilfisk. It was the first electric vacuum cleaner in Europe. Today the Nilfisk vacuums are delivered by Nilfisk-Advance.
In 1905 "Griffith's Improved Vacuum Apparatus for Removing Dust from Carpets" was another manually operated cleaner, patented by Walter Griffiths Manufacturer, Birmingham, England.
Membership in the Vacuum Cleaner Manufacturers' Association, formed in 1919, was limited to licensees under his patents.
The first vacuum cleaners were bulky stand-up units and not easily portable. And then, the technology made vacuum cleaners varied in many different kinds, depended on the user’s need and satisfaction.
