[0030] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures and techniques are provided for purposes of illustration, not limitation, to facilitate a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid obscuring the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present application provides a fan 20 filter unit, which includes a housing 10, a fan 20 disposed within the housing 10, and a filter 30. The top and bottom of the housing 10 are respectively provided with an air inlet and an air outlet communicating with the interior thereof. The air inlet of the fan 20 faces the air inlet, and the filter 30 is located on one side of the air outlet of the fan 20 and is detachably connected to the inner wall of the housing 10. The fan 20 filter unit also includes a guide plate 40, which is provided with a lock 110. The bottom of the housing 10 is provided with a lock column that is compatible with the lock 110, so that the guide plate 40 can be detachably mounted at the air outlet. The guide plate 40 has a plurality of guide holes 40a arranged at intervals and communicating with the interior of the housing 10. The guide holes 40a are suitable for guiding the airflow to be blown out evenly.
[0032] Exemplarily, the filter 30 is a high efficiency filter 30 that can filter particles of 0.3 μm, but is not limited thereto. Other filters 30 in the prior art are also applicable to the present application.
[0033] For example, by providing a lock catch 110 on the deflector 40 and correspondingly providing a lock post at the bottom of the housing 10, the deflector 40 can be detachably connected to the housing 10 by means of the cooperation between the lock catch 110 and the lock post. When it is necessary to replace the filter 30 or inspect the fan 20, the lock catch 110 only needs to be opened to disengage the lock catch 110 from the lock post, and the deflector 40 can be removed from the housing 10, thereby opening the air outlet and allowing workers to quickly replace the filter 30 or quickly inspect the fan 20. In addition, it should be noted that the locking of the lock catch 110 with the lock post is common knowledge to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail.
[0034] The fan 20 filter unit based on the above-mentioned technical features has an air outlet at the bottom of the housing 10, and utilizes the mutual cooperation of the lock 110 and the lock column to detachably connect the guide plate 40 to the housing 10, thereby sealing the air outlet. When replacing the filter 30 or repairing the fan 20, the guide plate 40 only needs to be removed from the housing 10 to open the air outlet, making disassembly and assembly simpler and faster, allowing for rapid repair or replacement. In addition, multiple guide holes 40a connected to the interior of the housing 10 are arranged at intervals on the guide plate 40, so that the gas filtered by the filter 30 can be evenly blown into the room through the guidance of the guide holes 40a, which can effectively avoid airflow turbulence and improve the uniformity of the air outlet speed.
[0035] In one possible embodiment, both inner walls of the box body 10 have connecting portions 50 extending along their inner sides, and an L-shaped support block 60 is connected to the connecting portion 50. The end of the filter 30 is overlapped on the support block 60 so that the filter 30 can be detachably arranged inside the box body 10.
[0036] For example, when installing the filter 30 inside the housing 10, the support portion is first connected to the connecting portion 50 on one side, and then one end of the filter 30 is overlapped on the support block 60. The filter 30 is then supported using auxiliary tools and fixedly connected to the supporting block 60 on the connecting portion 50 on the other side. Finally, the other end of the filter 30 is overlapped on the supporting block 60 and the auxiliary tools are removed. The filter 30 is thus installed, resulting in a simple structure and easy assembly and disassembly. For example, when the filter 30 needs to be replaced, the filter 30 can be quickly removed by simply removing the two supporting blocks 60 from the connecting portion 50.
[0037] In one possible embodiment, the connecting portion 50 has a first mounting hole, and the support block 60 has a second mounting hole vertically aligned with the first mounting hole. Specifically, after aligning the second mounting hole of the support block 60 with the first mounting hole of the connecting portion 50, a fastener (e.g., a bolt) is inserted sequentially through the second and first mounting holes to secure the support block 60 to the connecting portion 50. This allows the support block 60 to securely support the filter 30, resulting in a simple structure and easy assembly and disassembly.
[0038] In one possible embodiment, a stepped groove is formed on the outside of the air outlet, a locking post is fixed in the stepped groove, and a locking buckle 110 is provided on one side of the deflector plate 40 near the stepped groove. Thus, when securing the deflector plate 40 to the housing 10, the locking buckle 110 on one side of the deflector plate 40 is first locked with the locking post in the stepped groove, and then the other side of the deflector plate 40 is secured to the housing 10, thereby achieving a detachable connection between the deflector plate 40 and the housing 10, facilitating subsequent maintenance of the filter unit of the fan 20.
[0039] In one possible embodiment, a sealing strip 120 is further included. The sealing strip 120 is disposed along the four edges of the deflector plate 40 so that when the deflector plate 40 covers the air outlet, the sealing strip 120 abuts against the edge of the air outlet. Thus, the sealing strip 120 abuts against the edge of the air outlet to prevent gas within the box 10 from escaping through the gap between the deflector plate 40 and the box 10, thereby enhancing airtightness.
[0040] In one possible embodiment, an air guide ring 70 is further included. The air guide ring 70 has air guide cavities extending through both ends. One end of the air guide ring 70, located near the fan 20, extends into the air inlet and connects to the air inlet end of the fan 20, while the other end is exposed outside the air inlet. In other words, the provision of the air guide ring 70 can reduce resistance to air flow, better directing external air toward the air inlet end of the fan 20, thereby further accelerating the airflow and improving the air volume and efficiency of the centrifugal fan 20.
[0041] In a possible embodiment, a ventilation frame 80 is further included. The ventilation frame 80 is covered on the periphery of the air guide ring 70 and connected to the top of the box body 10. The ventilation frame 80 is provided with a ventilation mesh 80a at a position opposite to the air guide ring 70.
[0042] For example, the ventilation frame 80 can be detachably mounted on the top of the housing 10, allowing the ventilation frame 80 to be disassembled at any time for inspection or maintenance of the air guide ring 70 and the fan 20. For example, the outer edge of the ventilation frame 80 is bent to form a connecting edge, which is provided with a fixing hole. Fasteners (such as bolts) are then passed through the fixing holes and fixed to the housing 10, thereby achieving detachable installation of the ventilation frame 80 on the top of the housing 10. The above is merely an example and is not intended to be limiting.
[0043] In a possible implementation, the length of the guide plate 40 is greater than the length of the filter 30 , and the length of the area where the guide holes 40 a are provided on the guide plate 40 is equal to or greater than the length of the filter 30 .
[0044] For example, since the gas filtered by the filter 30 is blown into the room through the guide holes 40a of the guide plate 40, in order to ensure that the gas is blown out at a more uniform speed without turbulence, it is necessary to ensure that the length of the guide plate 40 is greater than the length of the filter 30, and the length of the area on the guide plate 40 where the guide holes 40a are provided is equal to or greater than the length of the filter 30, so that the gas flowing out of the filter 30 can be completely covered by the guide holes 40a, thereby achieving a more uniform wind speed. For example, if the area on the guide plate 40 where the guide holes 40a are provided is smaller than the length of the filter 30, some of the gas filtered by the filter 30 will be blocked by the guide plate 40 and flow upward, which will cause turbulence in the airflow and result in uneven wind speed of the gas blown into the room.
[0045] In one possible embodiment, a differential pressure gauge 90 is further included, and the differential pressure gauge 90 is embedded in the surface of the housing 10 and is used to detect the gas pressure inside the housing 10. In other words, the differential pressure gauge 90 embedded in the surface of the housing 10 is used to detect the gas pressure inside the housing 10, so that the resistance of the filter 30 can be deduced based on the real-time displayed gas pressure value, and the filtration efficiency of the filter 30 can be obtained, so as to determine whether the filter 30 needs to be replaced in time to ensure the filtration effect of the filter unit of the fan 20.
[0046] In a possible embodiment, a handle 100 is provided on the top of the box body 10. In this way, when installing the fan 20 filter unit, a worker can lift the box body 10 upward by holding the handle 100 and put it into the installation position for better installation.
[0047] It can be understood that the above embodiments only express the preferred implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the patent scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the present invention, the above technical features can be freely combined, and several deformations and improvements can be made, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes and modifications made to the scope of the claims of the present invention should fall within the scope of coverage of the claims of the present invention.
