Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of elevator cars, and in particular to an elevator car air purification constant pressure device. Background Art
[0002] The air purification system of an elevator car generally consists of a fan and a filter device. The fan draws in the dirty air in the car, filters it through the filter device to achieve purification, and then sends it back into the car by the fan. For example, an elevator car roof with an air purification function disclosed in announcement number CN222006968U includes a car roof panel installed on the elevator car, a suspended ceiling installed on the car roof panel, a receiving cavity formed between the car roof panel and the suspended ceiling, a matching blower and air purifier are provided in the receiving cavity, an air supply port and a return air port connected to the interior space of the elevator are formed on the suspended ceiling, a pre-filter is provided between the return air port and the air purifier, and a mounting base is detachably connected to the suspended ceiling. By setting a pre-filter between the air purifier and the return air outlet, the dirty airflow can be preliminarily filtered before entering the air purifier, thereby extending the service life of the air purifier and reducing its maintenance frequency. Through the coordination of the quick-release plate and the card frame, the staff can remove the pre-filter. Compared with the air purifier, the pre-filter is easier to clean and disassemble.
[0003] However, existing elevator car air purification systems have the following problems: the air inlet of the filter device is easily clogged with dust over a long period of time, causing the intake air flow rate to be significantly smaller than the exhaust air flow rate, which in turn causes the air pressure inside the elevator car to decrease, affecting riding comfort. Most existing elevator car air purification systems use a single filter element, and the equipment needs to be shut down for maintenance, resulting in ventilation interruption. In addition, traditional filter screens accumulate dust and need to be manually disassembled and cleaned, resulting in low efficiency and affecting usage. Summary of the Invention

The closed-loop system, comprised of an air pressure sensor and controller, dynamically monitors the pressure differential between the inside and outside of the cabin. When the pressure differential exceeds a threshold, the controller immediately triggers a cleanup procedure, ensuring the air pressure remains within a set range and enhancing passenger comfort.

The two supporting plates 51 are respectively fixed at the two ends of the inner side of the shell 1. A guide tube 52 is fixed between the two supporting plates 51. The guide tube 52 integrates guidance and support. The double supporting plates 51 constrain the axial movement trajectory of the pneumatic component 6 through the guide tube 52, and at the same time provide a mounting base for the cleaning mechanism 4, making the spatial layout more compact.

[0023] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8The bottom of the pneumatic component 6 is provided with an air duct 8 leading to the elevator car. The air duct 8 is fixed to the bottom of the guide tube 52.

[0024] See also Figure 4 and Figure 6 When the pneumatic component 6 extends to one side of the first conical cover 2, the air guide pipe 8 communicates with the air path of the second conical cover 3 through the elastic guide piece 9. When the pneumatic component 6 extends to one side of the second conical cover 3, the air guide pipe 8 communicates with the air path of the first conical cover 2 through the elastic guide piece 9. Through the alternating working mode of the first conical cover 2 and the second conical cover 3, a seamless connection of filtering and cleaning is achieved. When the air pressure drops due to dust accumulation on one side of the conical cover, the pneumatic component 6 automatically switches to the other side to continue supplying air, ensuring that the air pressure in the elevator car is constant. The pneumatic component 6 includes a telescopic tube 61. The outer side of the telescopic tube 61 is provided with a guide ridge 62 that is slidably connected to the guide tube 52. The telescopic tube 61 is provided with two sections of air cavities 63 that limit the sliding of the piston 44.

The telescopic movement of the pneumatic component 6 triggers a double cleaning action synchronously through the pressure rod 66, thereby having a purge function, that is, the compressed air in the air cavity 63 is blown back into the conical cover clamping cavity through the air guide hole 46, and the airflow is used to peel off the attached particles. It also has a brushing function, that is, the spiral blade 45 is squeezed by the pressure rod to drive the movable rod 41 to rotate, driving the cleaning brush 43 to physically scrape the surface of the filter screen. The integrated design of the brush plate 42 and the spiral blade 45 realizes self-cleaning through pneumatic kinetic energy, reduces the frequency of equipment shutdown maintenance, and reduces operation and maintenance costs.
[0025] See also Figure 2 and Figure 6A clamping cavity 21 is provided in the first conical cover 2 and the second conical cover 3, and an air inlet 22 communicating with the clamping cavity 21 is provided on the outer surface of the first conical cover 2 and the second conical cover 3. The conical cover structure expands the contact surface between the filter area and the air flow channel. The conical cover can adopt a HEPA filter to improve the air purification efficiency per unit time.
[0026] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: In the initial state, Figure 2 As shown, the air guide pipe 8 is connected to the right through hole 64 through the sphere 91, so that the external air enters the elevator car after being filtered by the second conical cover 3. When there is a lot of dust on the surface of the second conical cover 3 and the air inlet 22 is blocked, resulting in a decrease in the air pressure inside the elevator car, the air pressure sensor 10 can automatically detect and feedback to the controller, so that the electric telescopic rod 71 starts to drive the telescopic tube 61 to slide to the right through the push plate 72 under the control of the controller. At this time, the right piston 44 starts to compress the air in the right air cavity 63 and blows it out from the air inlet 22 of the second conical cover 3, thereby blowing open the blockage of the air inlet 22 from the inside. At the same time, due to the pressure rod 66 on the inner side of the end of the telescopic tube 61 squeezing the spiral blade 45 outside the movable rod 41, the movable rod 41 is forced to drive the brush plate 42 to rotate outside the second conical cover 3, and then the cleaning brush 43 on the brush plate 42 cooperates with the blowing of the air flow to clean the outer surface of the second conical cover 3. When the telescopic tube 61 extends toward the second conical cover 3, the ball 91 is compressed by the telescopic tube 61 to compress the spring 92 and shrink into the air guide tube 8. As the telescopic tube 61 slides, the air guide tube 8 and the right through-hole 64 are staggered. The right through-hole 64 is sealed with the guide tube 52 through the external rubber ring 65 until the through-hole 64 on the left moves to the position of the air guide tube 8. At this time, the ball 91 automatically bounces up under the elastic force of the spring 92 and is embedded in the through-hole 64 on the left to achieve the positioning of the telescopic tube 61. At this time, the air guide tube 8 is connected to the air path of the first conical cover 2 on the left through the ball 91, thereby completely switching the air intake, so that the outside air enters the elevator car after being filtered through the first conical cover 2, and the air pressure in the elevator car returns to normal. Similarly, when there is a lot of dust on the surface of the first conical cover 2 and the air inlet 22 is blocked, causing the air pressure inside the elevator car to drop, the air pressure sensor 10 can automatically detect and feedback to the controller, so that the electric telescopic rod 71 starts to drive the telescopic tube 61 to slide to the left through the push plate 72 under the control of the controller until the air intake is completely switched, so that the external air enters the elevator car after being filtered through the second conical cover 3 again, so that the air pressure in the elevator car returns to normal. The above method realizes automatic cleaning of the air inlet of the elevator car, ensuring that the interior of the elevator car is in a constant pressure state.
[0027] This technology is particularly suitable for areas with densely populated high-rise buildings. It effectively addresses the issues of insufficient air quality and pressure in elevators caused by the high floors and long passenger cycles of high-rise buildings, while also reducing property management costs through automated maintenance. Its modular design also facilitates integration into existing elevator ventilation systems, promising broad commercial prospects.
[0028] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
