Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of filter element cleaning devices, in particular to a plate-shaped filter element cleaning device for an air purifier. Background Art
[0002] Air purifiers play a vital role in purifying the air in our daily lives, and the plate filter element is one of their core components. Typically composed of multiple layers of filter material, the plate filter element effectively filters pollutants such as dust, pollen, and bacteria from the air. However, over time, the plate filter element gradually accumulates dust and impurities, affecting its filtering effectiveness and necessitating regular cleaning or replacement.
[0003] Currently, traditional methods for cleaning plate-shaped filter elements in air purifiers mainly include water washing and using a high-pressure air pump to blow. While water washing can remove dirt from the filter element to a certain extent, it requires drying before installation and use, which is time-consuming and affects the normal use of the air purifier. Using a high-pressure air pump to blow, while relatively fast, can generate a large amount of dust that fills the air, damaging the indoor environment and also being detrimental to human health. Utility Model Content

[0027] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Combined with attachment Figure 1 To the attached Figure 7, a plate-shaped filter element cleaning device for an air purifier comprises a base 1, a cleaning box 2 is fixedly provided on the upper end surface of the base 1, and a box cover 3 is hingedly provided on the upper end of the cleaning box 2. The upper end of the cleaning box 2 is provided with a receiving groove 5 for placing the filter element, and an annular boss 4 for supporting the filter element is fixedly provided on the inside of the receiving groove 5. A cleaning roller assembly for cleaning the filter element is slidably provided inside the cleaning box 2 and located below the receiving groove 5. An electric push rod 6 for driving the cleaning roller assembly to move back and forth is fixed on the outer side of the cleaning box 2. A pressing frame 8 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the box cover 3 by a spring assembly 7, and the pressing frame 8 is adapted to the receiving groove 5. A dust outlet 19 is provided at the bottom of the side of the cleaning box 2, and the dust outlet 19 is connected to an external vacuum cleaner through a hose.
[0029] The operating principle of this air purifier plate filter cleaning device is as follows: an electric push rod 6 drives a cleaning roller assembly to reciprocate and clean the plate filter element placed in a receiving slot 5. Simultaneously, a compression frame 8 within the housing cover 3, driven by a spring assembly 7, compresses and secures the filter element, ensuring its stability during the cleaning process. Dust generated during cleaning is promptly discharged through a dust outlet 19 connected to an external vacuum cleaner.
[0030] In this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution, two slide bars 9 are fixedly provided inside the cleaning box 2, and sliders 10 are slidably provided on the slide bars 9. A roller 11 is rotatably provided between the two sliders 10. A plurality of evenly distributed bristles 12 are fixed on the surface of the roller 11, and a motor 13 for driving the roller 11 is fixed on the slider 10. A U-shaped frame 18 is fixed between the sides of the two sliders 10, and the piston end of the electric push rod 6 extends into the interior of the cleaning box 2 and is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame 18.
[0031] In this embodiment, as a preferred technical solution, the spring assembly 7 includes a cavity 14 fixed to the inner side of the box cover 3, and also includes an insertion rod 15 fixed on the clamping frame 8. The insertion rod 15 extends into the cavity 14 and is fixed with a limit plate 16 at one end. A spring 17 is provided between the limit plate 16 and the bottom surface of the cavity 14.
[0032] The working process of the plate filter cleaning device for an air purifier of the utility model is as follows:
[0033] 1. Open the box cover 3: Flip the box cover 3 upward to open it. At this time, you can see the receiving slot 5 at the upper end of the cleaning box 2.
[0034] 2. Place the filter element: Place the plate-shaped filter element of the air purifier that needs to be cleaned in the receiving groove 5, and the filter element is supported by the annular boss 4.
[0035] 3. Close the box cover: Lower the box cover 3. At this time, the compression frame 8 on the inner side of the box cover 3 presses and fixes the filter element under the action of the spring assembly 7. The limit plate 16 on the insertion rod 15 in the spring assembly 7 compresses the spring 17, so that the compression frame 8 fits tightly against the filter element.
[0036] 4. Start the cleaning device: Start the electric push rod 6 and motor 13. The piston end of the electric push rod 6 pushes the U-shaped frame 18 fixed to it, which in turn drives the slider 10 to slide back and forth on the slide rod 9. The roller 11 rotating between the sliders 10 rotates under the drive of the motor 13, and the bristles 12 on the surface of the roller 11 clean the filter element.
[0037] 5. Dust discharge: The dust generated during the cleaning process is discharged in time through the dust discharge port 19 at the bottom of the side of the cleaning box 2 and connected to the external vacuum cleaner through a hose.
[0038] 6. Complete cleaning: When the cleaning work is completed, turn off the electric push rod 6 and the motor 13, open the box cover 3, and take out the cleaned filter element.
[0039] The above description of the present invention and its embodiments is non-limiting. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by the above, and does not deviate from the purpose of the present invention, without inventive design, a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
