The road to some of the technical advances that make Dyson proud has been a long one. The goal is to make appliances that last not just a year or two, but for a long, long time. Techniques that don’t need consumables and which, most importantly, get the job done quickly and efficiently. Let’s see what’s so special about Dyson V6 vacuum cleaners?
And instead of a heart, the small, digitally controlled Dyson v6 engine
What’s it for, being so small??
The Dyson V6 is the name of the British company’s smallest, lightest, fastest and most powerful digitally controlled motor. The motor plays such a huge role in the design of cordless vacuum cleaners that their new range is named just like it – the Dyson V6.
How it works and why it’s so important? “The engine doesn’t have to be big and voracious at all,” says. A big powerful motor is a burden, it is inevitably placed in the body of the device, which moves on wheels and “tied” to the socket. And in the Dyson cordless vacuum cleaner, the motor also needs to be housed in a housing, but in which!
In a lightweight, portable, not restricting the movements of the user. At the same time, the motor must provide constant high suction power and run long enough on batteries: to suffice for a full cycle of cleaning, because cordless vacuum cleaners Dyson should be full-fledged vacuum cleaners, not kitchen electric vacuum cleaners, just to pick up crumbs.
The long-awaited baby
A vacuum cleaner motor you can hold with two fingers! It’s
Dyson V6
.
And lo and behold. Hard to believe, but that’s the Dyson V6 engine. Tiny and economical, it spins at 110,000 rpm. The digitally controlled Dyson V6 motor weighs in at only 218g and produces 425w of power – roughly the same as a full-sized, high-powered corded vacuum cleaner.
The Dyson V6 runs on powerful batteries, with no carbon brushes to wipe off, wear out, cause sparks and overheat the motor – nothing unnecessary, heavy, short-lived or harmful.
The way to such a technological breakthrough is not quick and not cheap.
The Dyson V6 engine took seven years to develop, and the company has invested tens of millions of pounds in it.
With inhuman precision
Dyson V6: pick it up in six seconds!
Imagine just one of the steps in assembling a Dyson V6 digitally controlled motor. You need to install the ball bearings and apply microdots of adhesive in exactly the right places microdots – because with a little more adhesive the part will move and affect the operation of the engine . How long would it take a person, even a jeweler by trade, to achieve microscopic precision?? Is this even humanly possible??
The Dyson V6 is so small, and has so many high-tech components, that it can only be assembled by special robots working with absolute precision and very high speed: a new Dyson V6 engine is “born” on an automated line every six seconds, with 50 robots dashingly handling the assembly.
15 small cyclones and a Dyson V6 Total Clean filter
Counting cyclones?
We are so accustomed to call any bagless vacuum cleaner multi-cyclone, that we forget about the essence: what it actually – multi-cyclone technology. In Dyson models, a multi-cyclone is really “many cyclones,” but a large number of them can not only separate large debris from the air, but also qualitatively filter out the smallest of its particles. In full-sized Dyson vacuum cleaners, there are up to 54 of these, and fifteen in the Dyson V6 range of cordless models, working in parallel on two levels. Each cyclone is modified to increase airflow and centrifugal force. This is what captures the smallest dust particles from the air and separates them.
The fifteen-cyclone technology is called 2 Tier Radial, and it’s patented. Beyond capturing the finest dust?
Firstly, it delivers consistent suction power to the cleaner.
Second, it eliminates the need to change the filter. So you don’t need to change the filter. Completely ! It is designed to last for the life of the device. The filter “stops residual particles down to 0,3 micron at the exit. What? Bacteria, pollen, microscopic dust mite debris from our carpets and mattresses.
Nozzles: fluffy and others
Direct-drive nozzle for carpets and Fluffy nozzle for hard floors
For carpets
“Master, it’s okay that I lay on a white mat?”
Let’s start with the “others”: e.g. the new direct-drive nozzle. Direct drive 35 watts ensures no matter how fast the airflow, the nozzle rotates. The nozzle has two kinds of bristles to remove different types of dirt. Stiff nylon bristles effectively grip dirt from carpets. We tested the nozzle as part of a solo model test – the results are excellent. Well, the bristles made of carbon fiber remove fine dust from hard surfaces – tiles, linoleum, laminate. Bristle bristles extend across the entire width of the nozzle, leaving no gaps.
For hard floors
Big or small dust – doesn’t matter.
“I don’t feel like eating breakfast this morning. You can clean it up?”
The nozzle Fluffy “fluffy, soft as fluff” – English. is designed to effectively remove different types of dirt – both coarse and fine. Four rows of soft, anti-static carbon fibre bristles collect fine dust: they remove the static electricity that causes fine dust to cling to the floor. For large debris, it has a large roller with the softest nylon filament surface. The Fluffy mop pad rolls up tightly to the floor, so it cleans joints and crevices. The roller is also driven directly and rotates at a constant speed.
Small, but stiff and self-contained
The cat slept on the chair, it’s all hairy. Trouble? Not at all!
Powerful compact brush for cleaning upholstered furniture and car interiors. Its tough nylon bristles pick up hair, pet hair, and even stubborn dirt from upholstery without damaging the surface: they’re too gentle for that. What’s interesting is that the roller of this small nozzle is not driven by the air flow, but by an electric motor: it is more reliable.
What does it take to vacuum the ceiling?
Easy… lift the vacuum cleaner.
Stand on a stool, climb on a table, window sill, stepladder, balance on a stack of finally useful Big Soviet Encyclopedia? Find out how to shift the center of gravity. No, not your own, but a vacuum cleaner’s!
Dyson cordless vacuum cleaners have a center of gravity near the handle. Ironically, this combined with the lightweight aluminum dust pipe makes it easy to pick up the cleaner and move it up and sideways at any angle. You can vacuum the ceiling, walls, window frames and sills, curtain rods, chandeliers, picture frames – anything.
What does it take to vacuum a car?
In any position, on any surface.
Easy to clean. Simply change the nozzle.
As well as any non-floor surfaces – like picking up pet hair from furniture or crumbs from a table? Typically, in upright vacuum cleaners “2 in 1” from the main part removed a small handheld vacuum cleaner – low-power, which can not attach the necessary nozzles, so a large surface, it handles very long, sucking dust through a small hole or a tiny nozzle.
Dyson has gone one step further: to turn a Dyson cordless vacuum cleaner into a handheld, you simply remove the aluminium tube and attach any of the included attachments directly to the body and handle. This technical solution allows you to vacuum all surfaces in your home and car with the same speed and efficiency as a floor. And with the same wide nozzle if you need it – whether it’s for the floor or the carpet.
20 minutes, 16 minutes, 6 minutes – and not a single second of idle time
That’s how long the Dyson V6 cordless vacuum cleaner lasts before it needs recharging. 20 minutes – stable performance in normal mode, 16 minutes – with direct attachment, 6 minutes – in turbo mode, when the suction power increases threefold. Smooth operation provides powerful and high capacity battery.
Dyson V6 cordless vacuum cleaners have a trigger button that turns the vacuum cleaner on. The button is very sensitive: It operates with just a light touch. When you release the trigger, it shuts off. This solution was designed to ensure that the vacuum cleaner does not work for a second in vain – for example, in the pauses, which are always there when cleaning – and did not waste battery power. It is on when you vacuum and off when you get distracted.
Storage is also an art
Almost an art object. Modern art.
Dyson V6 vacuum cleaners are technologically advanced not only when they work, but also when they’re just modestly stored. You can place them anywhere you like: it comes with a special docking station for storing and charging the vacuum cleaner. It’s wall-mounted, and allows you to place the vacuum cleaner and its accessories compactly and ergonomically.
The use of all these technologies – a miniature motor Dyson V6, multi-cycle technology 2 Tier Radial, the shifted center of gravity, unique nozzles – not just gives vacuum cleaners Dyson V6 advantage over competitors, and takes them to a whole new level of quality and comfort in cleaning: you can easily, and most importantly, very effectively vacuum any surface in the house and car interior, while saving time and electricity and achieving purity not only floor, ceiling and furniture, but also the air in the house
