[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] As shown in the figure, a tunnel emergency smoke removal device includes a housing 1. Inside the housing 1, a plasma reactor 5 is installed. The plasma reactor 5 divides the internal cavity of the housing 1 into two cavities. One cavity is the air inlet cavity, and the other cavity is the air outlet cavity. A fan 4 is installed in the air outlet cavity. The air outlet of the fan 4 is connected to the outside air and is used to discharge the treated smoke outwards. The fan 4 serves as the power source for the smoke and dust to enter the housing 1. After startup, a negative pressure is formed inside the housing 1, and the smoke and dust in the channel can enter the housing 1, and then be discharged outwards after being absorbed and treated by the plasma reactor 5, realizing the process of smoke and dust treatment.

[0022] Specifically, an air outlet grille 7 is installed at a position near the air outlet of the fan 4 in the air outlet cavity. The air outlet grille 7 is installed on the surface of the housing 1. An air inlet grille 6 is installed at a position on the surface of the housing 1 near the air inlet cavity. The air inlet grille 6 and the air outlet grille 7 are respectively used to achieve the effects of air inlet and air outlet, and can also prevent large-sized sundries (such as paper, plastic tapes, etc.) from entering the housing 1.

[0023] Specifically, the plasma reactor 5 includes two negative electrode mounting plates 504. A plurality of negative electrode round tubes 505 are installed in a matrix arrangement between the two negative electrode mounting plates 504. It also includes electrode mounting brackets 502 located on both sides of the two negative electrode mounting plates 504. A plurality of high-voltage electrodes 503 are installed in a matrix arrangement between the two electrode mounting brackets 502. Each high-voltage electrode 503 passes through the center of the negative electrode round tube 505, and the electrode mounting bracket 502 is connected to the negative electrode mounting plate 504 through an insulating ceramic block 501; the central channel of each negative electrode round tube 505 is consistent with the flow direction of the smoke entering the housing 1. The plasma reactor 5 is connected to the power supply box 3, and the plasma generated by it can absorb the thick smoke particles, realizing the effect of efficiently treating smoke and dust; the principle of generating this plasma belongs to the conventional design in the prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0024] Specifically, the housing 1 is made of stainless steel, and a power supply box 3 is installed on its side. The stainless steel housing can avoid the problem of self-combustion after absorbing high-temperature thick smoke particles, which is beneficial to extending the service life of the smoke removal device; the power supply box 3 is used to connect external power equipment to provide power for the smoke removal device.

[0025] Specifically, a plurality of fixing ears 2 are installed at both sides of the housing 1. In this example, the number of fixing ears 2 on each side is two. The purpose is to facilitate fixing the housing 1 to a specified position by using the fixing ears 2, which is convenient for installation.

[0026] Specifically, there are multiple fans 4. The multiple fans 4 are coaxially and equally spacedly installed in the air outlet cavity. In this example, the number of fans 4 is four, and the number of fans 4 can also be increased or decreased according to the overall width of the smoke removal device.

[0027] Specifically, a transition fillet 101 is provided at one end of the outer housing 1 close to the air inlet cavity. The purpose of setting the transition fillet 101 is to facilitate the movement of the soot into the interior of the outer housing 1 from the position of the air inlet grille 6. By using the structural design of the transition fillet 101, the soot can quickly move towards the center of the interior of the outer housing 1, accelerating the speed of smoke removal. At the upper and lower positions of one end of the outer housing 1 away from the transition fillet 101, mounting strips 103 with a U-shaped cross-section are installed. This is set so that in addition to fixing the device by means of the fixing ears 2, the outer housing 1 can also be installed and fixed by different fixing methods. An installation channel is formed between the upper and lower mounting strips 103, and the outer housing 1 can be assembled in a manner similar to a slide rail.

[0028] Specifically, rectangular holes are provided at the positions of the outer housing 1 close to the fan 4 and the plasma reactor 5. Covers 102 are installed outside the rectangular holes. The rectangular holes are for facilitating the installation of the fan 4 and the plasma reactor 5 into the interior of the outer housing 1, and then the fan 4 and the plasma reactor 5 are sealed and protected by the covers 102.

[0029] When this tunnel emergency smoke removal device is in use, the emergency smoke removal device can be installed at a specified position by using the fixing ears 2 or the mounting strip 103 structure at the end of the outer housing 1. During operation, the fan 4 is started, and the fan 4 extracts the air inside the outer housing 1 outwards, creating a negative pressure inside the outer housing 1, causing the thick smoke in the emergency passage to enter the outer housing 1, and then pass through the center of the negative electrode circular tube 505. During the process of passing through the inside of the negative electrode circular tube 505, the soot can be absorbed and processed by the plasma generated inside. The processed air is led outwards through the fan 4 and the air outlet grille 7, completing the smoke removal process.

[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 within the protection scope of the present invention.
