Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of filter boxes, and more specifically to a filter box for a dryer that is convenient for maintenance. Background Art

[0002] The filter box of a dryer is a key component designed to improve the safety, efficiency, and service life of the device. Its main function is to capture fibers, cotton fluffs, and other tiny particles that fall off during the drying process, maintain the air circulation in the dryer, avoid efficiency reduction caused by blockage, and effective filtration can prevent cotton fluffs from accumulating inside the dryer, reduce the maintenance frequency, and extend the device life. In the early dryer designs, the problem of cotton fluff and fiber accumulation was not fully emphasized. Cotton fluffs and fibers would accumulate in the ventilation openings and exhaust systems inside the dryer during the drying process. These accumulated cotton fluffs are flammable and may cause fires. With the popularization of household appliances, users have higher and higher requirements for the convenience and maintenance of dryers. The filter box of a dryer enables users to easily clean and maintain the device, improving the convenience and comfort of use.

[0003] Deficiencies of the prior art: Some filtering devices may not be able to capture very fine cotton fluffs and fibers, especially when operating at high loads or for long periods. Fine cotton fluffs may still enter the dryer interior. The design of some devices may make the cleaning and replacement of the filter screen complicated or inconvenient, increasing the maintenance difficulty and time cost for users. Some filtering devices may age or be damaged in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, resulting in a decline in filtration efficiency or the need for frequent replacement. If the filter screen accumulates too much cotton fluff, it may impede air flow, thus affecting the energy efficiency and drying performance of the dryer, increasing energy consumption. Although the filtering device reduces cotton fluff accumulation, it still needs to be cleaned regularly. Otherwise, the accumulated cotton fluff may still pose a fire hazard. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a filter box for a dryer that is convenient for maintenance to solve the problems existing in the above background art.

In addition, the forms of each structure described in the following implementation manners are only examples. A filter box for a dryer that is convenient for maintenance involved in the present utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following implementation manners. All other implementation manners obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , the present utility model provides a filter box for a dryer that is convenient for maintenance, including a filter box 1. A first hinge buckle 102 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the filter box 1. A hinge door 103 is movably connected to the inner circumferential side wall of the first hinge buckle 102. A cavity 106 is formed inside the filter box 1. A fixing frame 107 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cavity 106. A metal screen filter 108 is movably connected to the outer circumferential side wall of the fixing frame 107. A polyester filter 109 is movably connected to the outer circumferential side wall of the metal screen filter 108. A metal mesh 110 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the filter box 1. As the main part of the dryer filter system, a cavity 106 is designed inside for installing and fixing the filter device, protecting and supporting the metal screen filter 108 and the polyester filter 109 to ensure the filtering effect.

[0023] Among them, an interface 101 is fixedly connected to the top end of the filter box 1. Located at the top end of the filter box 1, it serves as a channel for the gas inside the dryer to enter the filter box 1, ensuring that the gas generated during the drying process can smoothly enter the filtration system for treatment. A door lock buckle 105 is fixedly connected to the side of the filter box 1. Fixed on the side of the filter box 1, it is used in conjunction with the hinged lid door 201 to provide an additional locking function, ensuring that the hinged lid door 201 is more stable when closed and preventing it from accidentally opening during the operation of the dryer.

[0024] Among them, a second hinge buckle 2 is fixedly connected to the side of the filter box 1. The outer side wall of the outer ring of the second hinge buckle 2 is movably connected to the hinged lid door 201.

[0025] Among them, ventilation holes 104 are provided on the side of the hinged door 103, and a magnet 111 is fixedly connected to the side of the filter box 1.

[0026] Among them, a fixing buckle 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the filter box 1, and a buckle hole 301 is provided on the side of the fixing buckle 3.

[0027] Among them, a buckle ball 305 is movably connected to the inner side wall of the inner ring of the buckle hole 301. The outer side wall of the outer ring of the buckle ball 305 is movably sleeved with a buckle housing 303. A spring 304 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the inner cavity of the buckle housing 303. A fixing plate 302 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the buckle housing 303. These components together constitute a convenient disassembly mechanism. The fixing buckle 3 is installed on the side of the filter box 1. By cooperating the buckle hole 301 with the buckle ball 305 and utilizing the elastic force of the spring 304, quick locking and unlocking are achieved. The user only needs to gently press or rotate the buckle housing 303 to make the buckle ball 305 break out of the buckle hole 301, thereby easily disassembling the filter box 1 for cleaning or replacement. The fixing plate 302 is used to fix the buckle housing 303 in place.

[0028] The working principle of the present utility model: A cavity 106 is designed inside the filter box 1, and inside the cavity 106, through a fixing frame 107

[0029] A metal screen filter 108 and a polyester filter 109 are installed. When the dryer is working, the generated gas may contain impurities such as cotton fluffs, fibers, and tiny particles. These impurities enter the filter box 1 through the interface 101. First, the metal screen filter 108 serves as the primary filter and can intercept larger cotton fluffs and fiber particles. Subsequently, the gas passes through the polyester filter 109 to further filter out tiny particles and impurities, ensuring that the finally discharged gas is clean and pollution-free. The ventilation holes 104 opened on the side of the hinged door 103 allow the gas to pass smoothly, while maintaining a certain ventilation effect to prevent excessive internal pressure. A fixing buckle 3 is fixed on the side of the filter box 1. A snap ball 305 is movably connected in the snap hole 301 on the fixing buckle 3. When it is necessary to disassemble the filter box 1 for cleaning or replacing the filter, the user only needs to gently press or rotate the snap housing 303 to make the snap ball 305 disengage from the snap hole 301 under the action of the spring 304, and then the filter box 1 can be easily removed. This design does not require any tools, simplifies the operation steps, and reduces the maintenance difficulty. A magnet 111 is also fixed on the side of the filter box 1 to assist in fixing the hinged door 103 or the hinged cover door 201 to ensure that they are more stable when closed and prevent accidental opening during the operation of the dryer. Through the effective filtration system, the blockage and wear of the internal components of the dryer by impurities are reduced, ensuring smooth air circulation, thereby improving the drying efficiency and shortening the drying time. The metal filter box 1 and the filter can withstand the high temperature of the gas discharged from the dryer, reducing the accumulation of flammable substances such as cotton fluffs in the pipeline and reducing the fire risk caused by high temperature.

[0030] The above are only the 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 principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
