The invention relates to a safe and return dust-less dust exhaust apparatus for a lapper. The dust exhaust apparatus is characterized by comprising a suction hood, a dust filtering device and a dust collecting pipe for connecting the suction hood with the dust filtering device, wherein the dust collecting pipe is internally provided with a suction ventilator, and the dust filtering device comprises a box-shaped housing and at least one of layers of plate-shaped dust filtering cores arranged in the housing. According to the dust exhaust apparatus for the lapper, provided by the invention, the conventional filter bag is replaced by the dust filtering cores in the dust filtering device, and the dust filtering device is better in air permeability and less in return dust, so that the dust exhaust apparatus is better in filtering effect, safer in process, capable of being protected by a hard housing, hard to damage and longer in service life. The suction ventilator can be additively provided with a motor speed adjusting device, and the housing is internally provided with the plurality of layers of detachable dust filtering cores, so that the proper dust filtering intensity can be adjusted according to the dust absorption requirements of different occasions such as the different fabrics, therefore, not only can the energy waste be avoided, but also the dust absorption effect can be guaranteed.
