Abstract A hand-held cleaner is disclosed which is capable of performing suction operation to suck fallen leaves, refuse and the like and blowing operation to drift them together selectively with ease, and as opposed to the conventional one, which is not required to be changed in a manner of holding handles to greatly change position of a body including an engine depending upon type of operation, thereby enabling various operations to be performed easily and improved operational efficiency and manageability to be realized. The hand-held cleaner 10 comprises a blower body 10A including a prime mover 12, and a blower suction path 20 and a blower blow-off path 30 which are located on said blower body 10A in such a manner that the axis S of the former and the axis F of the latter are substantially in parallel with each other when viewed in plan, said blower suction path 20 being adapted to be rotatable.
A hand-held cleaner comprising: a blower body including a prime mover and a blower fan having a horizontal rotation axis, and an L-shaped blower suction joint pipe and a blower blow-off outlet which are located on said blower body in such a manner that the axis of the former and the axis of the latter are substantially parallel with each other, and each are orthogonal with respect to said horizontal rotation axis, said blower suction joint pipe being constructed and arranged to be freely rotatable about said horizontal rotation axis in a vertical plane.
