ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a wet vacuum accessory for a domestic vacuum cleaner that separates liquid droplets from the suction airstream before the airstream is drawn into the vacuum cleaner intake hose. A suction intake passage is formed between a pair of baffles, which discharges the airstream into a reservoir that is isolated from the airflow outlet of the accessory body by the baffles. The reservoir is provided with a relatively large cross sectional area, which reduces the suction airstream velocity sufficiently to allow liquid entrained in the airstream to fall into the reservoir before the airstream is drawn out of the accessory into the vacuum cleaner intake hose. In the preferred embodiment a hollow handle of the accessory is provided for connection to the vacuum cleaner intake hose.
