The fan 14 and the filter box 16 are both fixed on the heating cylinder 1. The connecting pipe 17 is fixed to the air inlet end of the fan 14 and connected to the filter box 16. The exhaust pipe 15 is installed on the filter box 16. The protective cover 12 has an opening, and the exhaust pipe 15 extends into the protective cover 12 through the opening. The outer wall of the exhaust pipe 15 is in sliding contact with the inner wall of the protective cover 12, and an anti-slip sleeve is provided on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe 15.
[0026] In this embodiment, the protective cover 12 provides a closed environment, which helps to reduce the spread of oil fumes and also protects the heating element inside the heating cylinder 1 from interference from the external environment. The handle 13 provides a convenient way of operation, allowing personnel to easily open or close the protective cover 12 for maintenance and cleaning. The fan 14 provides a powerful suction force, which can effectively draw the oil fumes generated during the heating process into the filter box 16 for treatment, reducing the harm of oil fumes to the environment and human health. The connecting pipe 17 ensures that the oil fumes can be smoothly transferred from the heating cylinder 1 to the filter box 16 for treatment, avoiding leakage of oil fumes during the transmission process. The filter box 16, through the action of the filter material, can effectively remove particulate matter and harmful gases in the oil fumes, purifying the gases emitted into the environment.
