Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided which uses a plurality of batteries (38) that are sequentially used to power an appliance (10). While one or more batteries (38) are used to power the appliance, one or more spare batteries (38) are charged for subsequent use. The rate of charge of the batteries (38) is comparable to the rate of discharge of the batteries (38) by the appliance (10) or faster. Thus the appliance (10) may be essentially continuously used by the user removing the discharged battery (38) and inserting a charged battery (38).

Abstract translation: 提供一种方法和装置，其使用依次用于为电器（10）供电的多个电池（38）。 当使用一个或多个电池（38）来为设备供电时，一个或多个备用电池（38）被充电用于随后的使用。 电池（38）的充电速率与电器（10）的电池（38）的放电速度相当或更快。 因此，用户可以基本上连续地使用器具（10）来去除放电的电池（38）并插入充电的电池（38）。

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus 60 has a surface cleaning head 3 with an upper casing 62 pivotally mounted to it. A dirty air inlet 2 is provided in the surface cleaning head and a clean air outlet 17 is provided in the surface cleaning apparatus. An air flow passage 9, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 extends between the dirty air inlet and the clean air outlet and has a portion 14 with a longitudinal axis and a substantial linear longitudinal extent. A motor and fan assembly 15 is positioned in said portion of the air flow passage, such that the axial flow direction of the motor and fan assembly is parallel and coplanar with the longitudinal axis of the portion of the air flow passage. The surface cleaning apparatus may also be provided with a filtration member 11 and may be in the form of an upright or stick vacuum cleaner.
