Abstract: The invention concerns a vacuum cleaner comprising a housing including a tank element (1) with receiving means for receiving a suction hose (4) and that is under partial vacuum and wherein dust collection means may be provided, a chassis element (2) accomodating an air flow generator (5) and a top cover element (3) including air exhaust means, wherein common sealing means (10) are provided for providing an air tight seal between the tank (1) and chassis elements (2) and a dust tight seal between the chassis (2) and top cover elements (3). The main sealing between the two compartments is provided in a simple and efficient way as only one single main sealing member (10) is necessary for providing an air tight seal between all the housing parts. This makes the vacuum cleaner according to the assembly easier to assemble and provides for a more cost effective manufacture than it is the case with the known vacuum cleaners. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A three-dimensional object is formed by selectively depositing successive layers (14) of build material from a print-head (9) having a plurality of orifices or nozzles (10(1)-10(96)), such as an ink-jet type of print-head. The print-head (9) is moved (X-Y control) relative to a support platform (15) in a series of scans in the X-direction offset from one another in the Y-direction and possibly overlapping. The orifices (10(1)-10(96)) extend transversely of the scan X-direction and may be set at an angle (α) to it to control the resolution perpendicular to the scan direction. The platform (15) is movable relative to the print-head in the Z-direction for forming each successive layer (14). The build material is a flowable material and may be a radiation-curable material, such as an ultra-violet curable photo-polymer. The data according to which each layer is formed may be manipulated according to a selected build style to determine the selective activation of the print-head orifices.
