Why are there now many different brands of bagless vacuum cleaners?

1

I thought Dyson had a patent on bagless vacuum cleaners but now everybody is copying him. Is it because the patent has now expired and so people can copy it? (as he once sued hoover for copying him but that was a long time ago, around 10 years ago)

Thankyou for your help
