Electrolux Ergorapido nozzle extension adapter

thingiverse

This is a nozzle adapter for the handheld unit of an electrolux ergorapido cordless vacuum cleaner. The vacuum is otherwise great, but it's way too bulky to fit under most furniture. The adapter, inspired by this great design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2050570, changes this by allowing you to extend it to any length you want with a piece of a standard 32x1.9mm pvc pipe. I settled for about 50cm extension that gives plenty of reach while still not too heavy for the adapter. Note that the adapter and the nozzle part don't fit together, they are designed to be connected by a pipe with outer diameter 32mm and wall thickness 1.9mm. I included an stl file for a 120mm pipe which can be used if you don't need more reach than that or if you have trouble finding a fitting pipe. FreeCAD source included. Let me know if you need help modifying it to fit other pipe dimensions. 32mm outer diameter is standard, but it seems they vary in wall thickness between different manufacturers. The nozzle part is slightly conical and is designed to go inside the extension pipe, so it might have to be modified to fit other than 1.9mm pipes.
