Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An upright type cleaner comprising:
 a base provided with a suction port;   a main body connected to the base; and   a wand assembly detachably attached to the main body,   wherein the wand assembly is rotated in one direction under the condition that the wand assembly is supported by the main body, and thus is mounted on the main body.   
   
   
       2 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 the wand assembly includes a handle easily gripped by a user, and a pipe connected to the handle; and   a portion of the wand assembly adjacent to the handle is rotatably supported by the main body.   
   
   
       3 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein the lower end of the wand assembly is rotated in a direction coming close to the main body, and thus the wand assembly is locked with the main body. 
   
   
       4 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein the wand assembly is rotated in the other direction, and thus is separated from the main body. 
   
   
       5 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 rotary shafts provided on any one of the main body and the wand assembly; and   rotary grooves, into which the rotary shafts are respectively inserted, provided on the other one of the main body and the wand assembly.   
   
   
       6 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 5 , wherein the rotary shafts or the rotary grooves provided on the main body are disposed at the upper portion of the main body. 
   
   
       7 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 5 , wherein the rotary grooves are formed in a curved shape. 
   
   
       8 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a locking hook provided on any one of the main body and the wand assembly; and   a fastening part, to which the locking hook is fastened, provided on the other one of the main body and the wand assembly,   wherein the locking hook or the fastening part is elastically supported.   
   
   
       9 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 8 , further comprising a release button releasing the fastening between the locking hook and the fastening part to release the wand assembly from the main body. 
   
   
       10 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 9 , wherein the release button is provided on the upper portion of the main body. 
   
   
       11 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein the wand assembly includes a tool, which is detachably provided. 
   
   
       12 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 11 , wherein:
 the wand assembly further includes a handle easily gripped by a user; and   the handle of the wand assembly serves as a handle of the main body under the condition that the wand assembly is locked with the main body.   
   
   
       13 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , further comprising an elastically supporting unit elastically supporting the wand assembly in the opposite direction to the locking direction under the condition that the wand assembly is locked with the main body. 
   
   
       14 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein the wand assembly is mounted on the rear portion of the main body. 
   
   
       15 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 1 , wherein the wand assembly is rotated in one direction under the condition that the lower portion of the wand assembly is supported by the main body, and thus is mounted on the main body. 
   
   
       16 . An upright type cleaner comprising:
 a base provided with a suction port;   a main body connected to the base;   a wand assembly detachably attached to the main body;   a rotating unit provided to rotate the wand assembly; and   a locking unit provided to lock the wand assembly rotated in one direction with the main body.   
   
   
       17 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 16 , wherein the rotating unit includes rotary shafts provided on any one of the main body and the wand assembly, and rotary grooves, into which the rotary shafts are respectively inserted, provided on the other one of the main body and the wand assembly. 
   
   
       18 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 16 , wherein the rotating unit includes a bending part provided on the wand assembly, and a rotary groove, into which the bending part is inserted such that the wand assembly is rotatable, provided on the main body. 
   
   
       19 . The upright type cleaner according to  claim 16 , wherein the locking unit includes:
 a locking hook provided on any one of the main body and the wand assembly; and   a fastening part, to which the locking hook is fastened, provided on the other one of the main body and the wand assembly,   wherein the locking hook or the fastening part is elastically supported.   
   
   
       20 . An upright type cleaner comprising:
