         2 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the suction holes include:
 a first suction hole formed in front of the sweeper; and   a second suction hole formed at the rear side of the sweeper.   
     
     
         3 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a manipulation unit projecting the sweeper out of the housing,
 wherein a projection hole through which the sweeper projects is formed in the bottom of the housing.   
     
     
         4 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the manipulation unit comprises:
 a mounting member installed in the housing and to which the sweeper is mounted;   a plurality of pressing members pressing the mounting member;   a connector rod connecting the pressing members to each other; and   a knob coupled with the pressing members and rotating the pressing members.   
     
     
         5 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 4 , further comprising an elastic member disposed between a lower side of the mounting member and an inner surface of the housing. 
     
     
         6 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the knob is exposed over the upper side of the housing. 
     
     
         7 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the pressing members rotate about the connector rod when the knob rotates. 
     
     
         8 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the pressing members include V-shaped protrusions formed on the lower sides respectively and the mounting member has seat recesses, formed in an upper surface, on which the protrusions seat. 
     
     
         9 . The suction head as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the pressing members comprise a first pressing member disposed at a left side of the housing and a second pressing member disposed at a right side of the housing;
 the connector rod connects a side of the first pressing member to a side of the second pressing member; and   the knob is coupled with the first pressing member.
