[0035] Example 4, as Example 4 of the present invention, focuses on combining the implementation processes of Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3.

[0036] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, push the mounting shell 61. During the movement of the mounting shell 61, the return spring 62 will be compressed, and the connecting cylinder 71 will be inserted into the interior of the mounting inner cylinder 64. The limiting ball 66 will match the connecting block 72. After the installation is completed, the mounting shell 61 will be released. Under the reset operation of the return spring 62, the mounting component 6 and the connecting mechanism 7 will be engaged. After the mounting component 6 and the connecting mechanism 7 are installed, the filter component 5 will be threaded into the middle position of the muffler body 1, and then it can be used.

[0037] During use, dust will pass through mesh plate 1 534 and mesh plate 2 535 and be filtered. The dust will remain on the surface of both. If the air velocity at the outlet decreases during subsequent long-term operation, it means that there is a lot of dust accumulated on the surface of mesh plate 1 534 and mesh plate 2 535, and they need to be cleaned. Then, filter cartridge 1 51 and filter cartridge 2 52 are disassembled, and filter cartridge 3 53 is disassembled and cleaned. After cleaning, they are reinstalled.
