The vacuum cleaner bag problem
In 1978, while vacuuming his home, James Dyson, the
inventor of
Dyson vacuum cleaner, realized his bag vacuum cleaner
was constantly losing suction power. He noticed how dust quickly
clogged the pores of the bag and blocked the airflow, so that
suction dropped rapidly. He set to work to solve this problem. 5
years and 5,127 prototypes later, the world's first cyclonic bagless
vacuum cleaner arrived.
The first Dyson vacuum cleaner
James Dyson decided to manufacture his own vacuum cleaner. In June 1993 he
opened a research center and factory near his home in England to begin making
his Dyson vacuum
cleaner, which collected the finest particles of dust
(microscopic particles as small as cigarette smoke) without clogging. The result
was the Dyson Cyclone vacuum cleaner, the first vacuum cleaner that didn't lose
suction.
More cyclones
The original team of 3 Dyson vacuum cleaner engineers grew to 350
scientists in a new research center, investigating ways to make products work
better. Determined to create vacuum cleaners with even higher suction, the cyclonics
vacuum cleaner team set to work developing an entirely new type of
cyclone vacuum system. They discovered that spreading higher airflow through
many cyclones generated even higher suction power in vacuum cleaners, which
picked up more dust from the floor. Hence the Root Cyclone™ vacuum
cleaner was created..
