[0038] The working principle of the automatic dust discharging unit is that the driving motor 105 rotates to drive the fan blade to rotate, the blades of the fan blade rotate spirally to generate centrifugal force, air in the connecting unit 40 above is sucked downward, and the air is discharged outward after passing through the suction pipe 102, the shell 101 and the discharge pipe 103 in turn. It can be understood that the connecting unit 40 is in communication with the dust collecting unit 20, and the air in the connecting unit 40 is sucked downward to generate negative pressure in the connecting unit 40, and then the dust in the dust collecting unit 20 moves downward under the action of the negative pressure at the bottom, and the dust is sucked by the dust discharging fan assembly 100 and discharged to the outside.

[0039] The blocking part 106 can be a normally closed elastic duckbill-shaped structure made of rubber, or a plate-shaped structure connected with a spring and capable of automatic reset to realize sealing. When the automatic dust discharging unit is started, the downward airflow formed by the dust discharging fan assembly blows open the blocking part 106. When the automatic dust discharging unit is closed or fails to stop, the blocking part 106 can be closed by automatic reset or shape recovery to prevent external air from being sucked back.

[0040] Further, the blades of the fan blade are made of high-hardness materials such as aluminum alloy and metal to withstand long-term impact and wear of dust and particles, enhance the service life of the blades, and avoid frequent replacement of the dust discharging fan assembly.

[0041] The control mode of the air purification device is that when working, the dust discharging fan assembly 100 is started first, and then the engine is started, the air is discharged outward through the discharge pipe 103 of the fan, and a negative pressure environment is formed in the connecting unit 40 and the dust collecting unit 20, so that when the engine is started, the external air containing dust or the residual dust in the dust collecting unit 20 is not sucked back into the air filter 200, and the filtering efficiency is improved. When it is finished, the engine is closed first, and then the dust discharging fan assembly 100 is closed, which is also to avoid that the external air containing dust or the residual dust in the dust collecting unit 20 is sucked back into the air filter 200. Correspondingly, the dust discharging control assembly can be provided with a delay function to automatically realize the control mode of closing the engine first and then closing the dust discharging fan assembly 100, and improve the degree of automation control.
