[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a fan with a dust collection function is disclosed, comprising,

[0028] The fan body 1 includes a fan housing 11 and a brush assembly 12 disposed within the fan housing 11;

[0029] The dust removal assembly 2 includes a dust removal housing 21 and a dust extraction fan 22 disposed within the dust removal housing 21. The dust removal housing 21 is connected to the fan housing 11. The dust extraction fan 22 is positioned directly opposite the brush assembly 12 and draws air directly from the brush assembly 12. The dust removal housing 21 is provided with a first dust extraction hole 23, which is located on the side of the dust extraction fan relative to the brush assembly 12.

[0030] In this embodiment, the blower with a dust collection function, when the blower body 1 is started, drives the dust collection fan 22 to rotate synchronously, forming a negative pressure at the brush assembly 12. The toner inside the blower housing 11 is accurately and fully sucked into the dust collection housing 21, preventing the toner from spreading inside the blower housing 11. Finally, the toner is sprayed out of the dust collection housing 21 from the dust collection hole, realizing the toner dust removal of the blower body 1, avoiding the accumulation of toner inside the blower housing 11, and improving the electrical insulation performance of the internal circuit of the blower.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the fan body 1 is a conventional fan, and specifically includes core components such as stator core, rotor core, brush assembly 12, stator impeller, fan cover, moving impeller, stator winding and rotor winding, which are disposed in the fan housing 11.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the dust removal housing consists of a neck 212 and a head 211 connected to the neck 212. The neck 212 is connected to the fan housing 11. The dust suction fan 22 is disposed inside the head 211. After the dust suction fan 22 rotates, the toner passes through the neck 212 and enters the head 211. The cross-section of the neck 212 is smaller than the cross-section of the head 211, so the airflow velocity inside the neck 212 is increased, generating a stronger negative pressure suction force inside the fan housing 11, ensuring that the toner enters the head 211 efficiently and quickly. The head 211 is provided with a first dust suction hole 23, and the toner inside the head 211 is sprayed out from the first dust suction hole 23.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, eight first suction holes 23 are also included. The eight first suction holes 23 are distributed in a ring around the central axis of the head 211, which can evenly disperse the airflow and ensure that the toner is evenly sprayed out from the eight first suction holes 23, preventing the risk of clogging of a single first suction hole 23.

[0034] Reference Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, an annular blocking portion 214 is provided at the junction of the neck 212 and the head 211. The annular blocking portion 214 extends along the axial direction of the neck 212 toward the side where the dust extraction fan 22 is provided. The annular blocking portion 214 is used to block the carbon powder deposited in the head 211 and prevent the carbon powder from flowing back into the fan housing 11 due to airflow turbulence.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a rotor assembly is further provided in the fan housing 11. The rotor 13 of the rotor assembly passes through the neck 212 and extends into the head 211. The rotor 13 is coaxially connected to the dust collection fan 22. Therefore, without the need for an additional motor, the dust collection fan 22 is synchronously driven by the power of the fan body 1 to generate dust removal negative pressure, thereby reducing energy consumption and reducing mechanical failure points.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a gap 216 is provided between the periphery of the vacuum fan 22 and the inner wall of the head 211. The gap 216 is directly opposite to the first suction hole 23, which can shorten the diffusion path of toner. When the airflow carrying toner passes through the gap 216, the toner particles are thrown towards the first suction hole 23 due to centrifugal force, which promotes toner separation and concentrated discharge, and reduces toner residue in the head 211.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the neck 212 and the head 211 are both cylindrical, and the neck 212, the head 211 and the fan housing 11 are coaxially connected, which can reduce turbulence and energy loss when the airflow turns, ensure smooth airflow transition, improve dust removal efficiency and reduce fan operating noise.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the neck 212 and the head 211 are connected by a flared transition section 213. The transition section 213 can reduce the gap 216 between the head 211 and the vacuum fan 22, thereby reducing the backflow of air from the gap 216 to the neck 212.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a receiving groove 215 is formed between the transition section 213 and the annular blocking part 214. The carbon powder deposited at the bottom of the head 211 slides from the surface of the transition section 213 into the receiving groove 215, reducing the phenomenon of carbon powder diffusing with turbulent gas.

[0040] Reference Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the head 211 includes a cylindrical body 211b and a sealing cover 211a. One end of the cylindrical body 211b is connected to the neck 212, and the other end of the cylindrical body 211b is sealed by the sealing cover 211a. The sealing cover 211a is provided with the first dust suction hole 23. The sealing cover 211a can prevent external debris from entering the fan from the port of the cylindrical body 211b, and can also discharge toner to the outside through the first dust suction hole 23. The sealing cover 211a is interference-fitted with the cylindrical body 211b, and the sealing cover 211a can be quickly disassembled and assembled.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a second dust suction hole 24 is provided at the center of the sealing cover 211a. The second dust suction hole 24 is used to discharge the toner that has accumulated in the central area of ​​the head 211 to the outside, so as to avoid toner deposition caused by insufficient suction in the central area.

[0042] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the sealing cover 211a is embedded in the cylindrical body 211b, and the sealing cover 211a is provided with an annular abutment portion 211a1. The annular abutment portion 211a1 abuts against the end face of the cylindrical body 211b along the axial direction of the cylindrical body 211b. The sealing cover 211a is quickly positioned by the abutment of the annular abutment portion 211a1 against the end face of the cylindrical body 211b.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the dust removal component 2 is located at the end of the fan body 1 opposite to the end where the air inlet 3 is provided. Setting the dust removal component 2 and the air inlet 3 at the two ends of the fan with the greatest distance is beneficial for the carbon powder discharged outside the dust removal housing 21 to avoid the air inlet 13.

[0044] The working principle of the dust-collecting fan described in this utility model is as follows:

[0045] After the fan starts, a negative pressure is formed at the air inlet 13, and air is drawn into the fan through the air inlet 13. After acceleration, it is ejected from the air outlet 4. At the same time, the rotor 13 drives the dust collection fan 22 to rotate synchronously, and a negative pressure is formed inside the fan housing 11. The toner generated by the brush assembly 12 is drawn into the dust collection housing 21 and finally ejected from the dust collection housing 21 through the first dust collection hole 23 and the second dust collection hole 24. Specifically, the toner passes through the neck 212, the air duct of the dust collection fan 22, and the gap 216 in sequence to reach the cylindrical body 211b. Finally, it is ejected from the dust collection housing 21 through the first dust collection hole 23 and the second dust collection hole 24, thus realizing the toner dust removal process. When cleaning the residual toner inside the dust collection housing 21, the sealing cover 211a is pulled out and the toner is manually cleaned. Finally, the sealing cover 211a is reinstalled.

[0046] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
