The end of the central axis 4 pointing to the impeller shaft is coaxially fixedly connected to the friction cone 24, and the conical friction cylinder 31 is coaxially arranged with the friction cone 24.

[0023] Working principle and advantages of the present invention: When the particle separator for the fan is in use, the working process is as follows: like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, when the fan is started to exhaust oil smoke, the rotation of the impeller shaft synchronously drives the column 25 to rotate, so that while the column 25 rotates, the internal liquid obtains centrifugal force and flows into the slide cylinder 27 through the inclined branch pipe 26, so that the slide plate 28 obtains thrust, so that the slide plate 28 drives the conical friction cylinder 31 to approach the friction cone 24 through the slide rod 30 and contact it, thereby utilizing the friction force to drive the friction cone 24 and the center shaft 4 to rotate, thereby avoiding the load imposed on the impeller shaft by the center shaft 4 due to inertia when the fan is started, thereby protecting the impeller shaft and increasing the service life of the impeller shaft.

[0024] As described above, the impeller shaft rotates and draws the air containing oil smoke into the fan housing 1 through the oil deflector 2. Figure 2As shown, the filter mesh 8 filters out impurities in the air containing oil smoke, such as hair, debris, etc., to prevent the impurities from damaging the blades. The central shaft 4 rotates while driving the brush roller 7 to clean the air inlet side of the filter mesh 8 to brush off the adhered impurities. The coordinated action of the ring gear 10 and the gear 11 enables the brush roller 7 to rotate around its own axis, thereby performing a compound motion, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the filter mesh 8, achieving automatic cleaning, and saving time and effort.

[0025] As described above, the rotation of the central shaft 4 drives the oil fume separation assembly 5 to rotate, so that the radial arc strips 20 of the oil fume separation mesh 16 knock the large particles such as oil fume in the air that is about to enter the fan onto the inner wall of the oil deflector 2. Under the action of gravity, the oil stains slide to the bottom of the oil deflector 2, and the oil stains flow into the oil collecting box 6 through the oil leakage port 12. The oil collecting box 6 is detachable for easy cleaning, and the scraper plate 13 on the mesh bracket 15 scrapes off the oil stains on the inner wall of the oil deflector 2, thereby avoiding the accumulation of oil stains and improving the effect of removing oil stains.

[0026] When the fume exhaust work is finished, the impeller shaft stops rotating, thereby synchronously driving the column barrel 25 to stop rotating, so that the liquid inside the column barrel 25 loses centrifugal force, and under the action of the spring 33, drives the slide plate 2 34 to move right in the column barrel 25, so that the liquid in the slide cylinder 27 is sucked into the column barrel 25 through the inclined branch pipe 26, so that the slide plate 1 28 drives the conical friction cylinder 31 away from the friction cone 24 and resets through the slide rod 30, thereby disconnecting the power connection between the central shaft 4 and the impeller shaft, thereby avoiding the load applied to the impeller shaft by the central shaft 4 due to inertia when the fan stops, thereby protecting the impeller shaft and increasing the service life of the impeller shaft.

[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
