Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a cabinet air intake device that facilitates filter replacement without shutting down the machine, and belongs to the technical field of air intake devices. Background Technology

[0002] Suspension centrifugal blowers include magnetic levitation centrifugal blowers and air-suspended centrifugal blowers. To prevent airborne dust particles from entering the cabinet during operation, a filter is typically installed at the air inlet. However, because the blower needs to run continuously for extended periods, the filter gradually accumulates particulate matter, leading to decreased filtration efficiency or even blockage, which in turn affects the air intake and equipment performance. To ensure unobstructed airflow, the filter needs to be replaced regularly.

[0003] In existing technologies, filter replacement for suspended centrifugal blowers typically requires the equipment to be shut down. This shutdown maintenance not only disrupts the production process but may also adversely affect the normal operation of subsequent workstations. Furthermore, frequent start-up and shutdown operations increase energy consumption and shorten equipment lifespan, resulting in additional maintenance costs and energy consumption issues for users.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cabinet air intake device that allows for easy filter replacement without interrupting equipment operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cabinet air intake device that facilitates filter replacement without shutting down the system.
