Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electrical appliances, and specifically relates to an intelligent ashtray. Background Art
[0002] Most of the existing intelligent ashtrays are relatively large in size. The air flow in the air duct basically enters through the convex platform in the middle at the upper end of the device, passes through the purification cotton for filtration, and is discharged through the air duct by the suction of the fan; and most of the placing cylinders of the ashtrays are uncovered and exposed outside. Sometimes there are many remaining cigarette butts, which are ugly and messy and emit odors to the surrounding areas, and the application scenarios are limited.
[0003] The existing utility model patent with the publication number of CN 118383557 A and the publication date of July 26, 2024 discloses an intelligent ashtray, which includes a base. A vertical plate and a partition are arranged on the upper surface of the base. A horizontal plate is arranged at the top of the vertical plate. A housing is arranged between the horizontal plate and the base. Ventilation openings are arranged on the surface of the housing. An ashtray is arranged at one end of the horizontal plate. A fan is arranged on one side of the vertical plate. An activated carbon filtering mechanism for adsorbing particulate matter in the adsorbed smoke is arranged at the air inlet of the fan. A water filtering mechanism for filtering tar and nicotine in the air is arranged at the air outlet of the fan. A plasma mechanism for eliminating the remaining smoke smell in the air is arranged on the other side of the vertical plate;
[0004] This patent maintains sufficient water to contact the smoke and dust through capillary action. The tar in the smoke and dust is adsorbed on the filter screen during contact. Due to the large surface tension of the tar, it will not volatilize into the air again with the evaporated water; nicotine dissolves in water, and when the water evaporates, it will not carry away the solute and will not diffuse again;
[0005] However, an obvious problem is also exposed in the implementation of this patent: that is, the filtering effect of the second filter element in the water filtering mechanism on nicotine is very limited. The reasons are as follows: when filtering nicotine, the flow path of nicotine is equal to the length of the second filter element, and the contact area with nicotine is the entire surface area of the second filter element. Then this results in that the filtering effect of the second filter element cannot be extended on the original basis, and further leads to the problem of poor filtering effect. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] Aiming at the problems in the prior art, the utility model provides an intelligent ashtray to solve the problem of poor filtering effect of the existing filter element on nicotine.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present utility model to solve its technical problems is as follows: An intelligent ashtray, including a base, on the upper surface of the base, there are provided a vertical plate and a partition plate. At the top of the vertical plate, there is a horizontal plate. Between the horizontal plate and the base, there is a housing. On the surface of the housing, there are ventilation openings.

Specific embodiments
[0020] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0021] As Figures 1-5 shown, an intelligent ashtray includes a base 1, a vertical plate 2 and a partition 4 are arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, a horizontal plate 3 is arranged at the top of the vertical plate 2, an outer shell 5 is arranged between the horizontal plate 3 and the base 1, a ventilation opening 51 is formed on the surface of the outer shell 5, an ashtray 10 is arranged at one end of the horizontal plate 3, a fan 8 is arranged on one side of the vertical plate 2, an activated carbon filtering mechanism 6 for adsorbing particulate matter in the smoke is arranged at the air inlet of the fan 8, a water filtering mechanism 7 for filtering tar and nicotine in the air is arranged at the air outlet of the fan 8, and a plasma mechanism 9 for eliminating the residual smoke smell in the air is arranged on the other side of the vertical plate 2.
[0022] The activated carbon filtering mechanism 6 includes an activated carbon filter layer and a HEPA filter layer. The activated carbon filter layer is a porous carbon material with a very large specific surface area (500 - 1700m2 / g) and adsorption capacity, and the pore size is between 1 and 100 nanometers. It can adsorb most organic and inorganic substances. When air passes through the activated carbon, impurities, organic compounds and other pollutants will be adsorbed on the surface of the activated carbon, thereby effectively removing harmful substances such as odors, formaldehyde, benzene, xylene, etc. in the gas.
[0023] When air passes through the HEPA filter layer, using its dense fiber grid, tiny particles in the air will be blocked in the grid, so as to effectively capture tiny particles in the air, thereby purifying the air. Hepa filters can usually filter out 99.97% of particles with a size of 0.3 microns;
[0024] The water filtering mechanism 7 includes a breathable grid frame 11, a filter element 12 movably arranged in the inner cavity of the grid frame 11, a cover arranged on the top of the filter element 12 and a water tank 13 arranged at the bottom of the filter element 12. The cover is hidden under the inner side of the consumable cartridge cover 110. Water is stored in the water tank 13, the bottom of the filter element 12 is immersed in the water, and the capacity of the water tank 13 is 140ml;
[0025] The filter element 12 is a net-like structure with fine pores inside, made of a mixture of a wood pulp fiber layer, an acetate fiber layer and a nylon layer. It maintains sufficient water to contact the soot through capillary action. The tar in the soot is adsorbed on the filter screen during contact. Due to the large surface tension of the tar, it will not volatilize into the air again with the evaporated water. Nicotine dissolves in water, and when the water evaporates, it will not carry away the solute and will not diffuse again. At the same time, the filter element 12 includes a main body 14. On both sides of the main body 14, a number of filters 15 with an isosceles triangle cross-section are provided. The surface area of the entire filter element 12 is increased through the filter part 15, so that there is a larger contact area when filtering nicotine, and at the same time, the water storage capacity is also increased. In addition, three S-shaped flow channels 16 are equidistantly arranged inside the main body 14. The S-shaped flow channels 16 increase the residence time of nicotine in the main body, thereby extending the filtering time of the main body for nicotine. Therefore, the filtering effect of the entire filter element 12 on nicotine is improved through the filter part 15 and the flow channels 16;
[0026] The plasma mechanism 9 uses a high-voltage electric field to induce air discharge, generating a high-energy ion group similar to the natural forest environment. The ion group is free in the air and adsorbs and aggregates with small organic molecule groups in the air to produce a sedimentation effect, thereby purifying the organic odor molecules in the room and further decomposing the residual cigarette smell;
[0027] A sliding cover of the ashtray 10 is slidably arranged on the top of the ashtray 10. The sliding cover of the ashtray 10 consists of two upper and lower layers. A consumable compartment is opened at one end of the cross plate 3 away from the ashtray 10, and a consumable compartment cover 110 is arranged on the top of the consumable compartment;
[0028] A battery is arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, and a magnetic charging port for charging the battery is arranged on one side of the bottom of the outer shell 5. The power switch of the present utility model is arranged at the bottom of the sliding cover of the ashtray 10. When the sliding cover of the ashtray 10 is slid open, the sliding cover of the ashtray 10 presses the power switch, and the fan 8 operates. The air containing second-hand smoke passes through the activated carbon filtering mechanism 6 to remove the particulate matter in the soot, and then passes through the water filtering mechanism 7 to remove harmful substances such as tar and nicotine.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the specific structures and working principles of the activated carbon filtering mechanism 6 and the plasma mechanism 9 in the present utility model have been fully disclosed in the comparative documents in the background technology, so they will not be elaborated here.
