ABSTRACT:
An upright vacuum cleaner conversion and storage pedestal for receiving and supporting a vacuum cleaner and adapting the cleaner to flexible hose cleaning tasks is disclosed having a wheeled base or bed releasably fastenable to the bottom of the cleaner with a vacuum transmitting conduit in the base positionable in substantially airtight relation with the suction mouth of the cleaner and communicating with a coupler for joining a flexible air hose to the conduit so that the pedestal supported cleaner may be used in much the same manner as a conventional canister type cleaner. A leg may be pivotably supported beneath the base, movable between a stowed horizontal position and an extended position for supporting the cleaner and pedestal on a stairway with wheels of the base resting on one step surface and the leg resting on the next lower step surface so as to adapt the upright vacuum cleaner to vacuuming stairways and the like. The pedestal or base may extend laterally beyond a supported cleaner and include attachment arrangements for supporting cleaner accessories. A quick release cam arrangement may be provided for securing the cleaner to the pedestal. A method of adapting an upright vacuum cleaner for vacuuming stairways is also disclosed.
