Abstract:
An onboard vacuum system for a mobile vehicle. The onboard vacuum system includes a vacuum cleaner unit stored in a non-visible location in a motor vehicle sleeper compartment. The vacuum cleaner unit includes a motor and filter as well as a refuse container. The hose from the vacuum cleaner is wound onto a hose reel that may have a retractor. The hose and nozzle from the hose reel or coil protrude within the sleeper compartment. In one version, the hose and nozzle protrude and may be withdrawn from a storage cabinet for clothing allowing access to the entire sleeper floor and bunks for vacuuming operations.
