Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of HVAC air filtration technology, and specifically relates to an air filtration device for HVAC. Background Technology
[0002] After prolonged use, many traditional filters accumulate dust and particulate matter on their filter elements, reducing airflow and leading to incomplete cleaning. This results in the system failing to maintain good air quality during operation. This phenomenon primarily stems from the hydrophilic and oleophilic properties of the filter material, causing dust particles to adhere more firmly, thus making the cleaning process difficult. Furthermore, certain cleaning technologies, such as reverse airflow or mechanical vibration, often fail to effectively remove particles adhering deep within the filter media, significantly shortening the filter's lifespan.
[0003] Conventional solutions typically include regularly replacing filter cartridges, using more powerful cleaning devices, or introducing more efficient filter media. However, these methods have certain drawbacks. While regularly replacing filter cartridges ensures filtration effectiveness, this process increases maintenance and labor costs and may lead to system downtime. Using more powerful cleaning devices, while theoretically improving cleaning efficiency, may introduce excessive energy consumption and additional noise pollution, while also placing higher demands on the adaptability and durability of the equipment. Therefore, we aim to design an air filtration device for HVAC systems with a novel structure to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, each of the air inlet boxes has multiple air inlet holes on its outer wall, and the air outlet boxes have multiple air outlet holes evenly distributed on their front side. In actual use, the diameter of the air inlet holes can be set according to the actual filtration requirements. A filter screen can also be added to the outer wall of the air inlet box to improve the filtration effect. However, the added filter screen needs to be flat and should not affect the normal cleaning work of the cleaning brush.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning assembly further includes guide rod one and guide rod two. One guide rod two is fixed to the lower right side and the upper left side of the rear end of the fixed frame, and one guide rod one is fixed to the upper right side and the lower left side of the rear end of the fixed frame.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a forward and reverse motor is installed on the outer wall of the front end of each of the guide rods, a drive pulley is fixed to the inner end of the forward and reverse motor, and a driven pulley is rotatably installed inside the rear end of each of the guide rods.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the driving pulley and the driven pulley are respectively connected to the front end and the rear end of the transmission belt for rotational transmission, and each of the guide rods has a guide groove facing downward on its upper surface.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting sleeve is welded to the left and right sides of the upper end and the left and right sides of the lower end of the mounting frame, and the four connecting sleeves are slidably connected to two guide rods one and two guide rods two, respectively.
[0013] The lower end of the connecting sleeve located on the second guide rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transmission belt through a connecting block and screws. A limiting plate is provided at the rear end of each of the two first guide rods and the two second guide rods.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, each of the air inlet boxes has a cleaning brush movably abutting its left and right sides, and the distance between two air inlet boxes is less than the maximum diameter of the cleaning brush. The outer wall of the cleaning brush is provided with four sets of vertically distributed bristles for cleaning the outer wall of the air inlet box.
[0015] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by setting a dust receiving tray at the lower end of the filter component, the dust receiving tray can receive the dust cleaned by the cleaning component, avoiding the dust generated during cleaning from falling directly, and facilitating the subsequent centralized treatment of the dust.
[0016] The cleaning components consist of multiple cleaning brushes mounted on a fixed frame. These brushes rotate and rub against the outer wall of the air inlet box as the frame pushes them, thus achieving the cleaning purpose. There is no need to disassemble the unit directly for dust cleaning; simply remove the dust collection tray after cleaning. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an air filtration device for HVAC, including: a filter component 200 and a cleaning component 300. The filter component 200 is equipped with a dust collection tray 100 for collecting cleaning dust at its lower end, and the filter component 200 is equipped with a cleaning component 300 for cleaning dust at its rear side.
[0027] The filter assembly 200 includes a fixed frame 210 and an air outlet box 220. The fixed frame 210 is equipped with the air outlet box 220. The cleaning assembly 300 includes a mounting frame 320 and cleaning brushes 330. Multiple cleaning brushes 330 for cleaning dust are installed inside the mounting frame 320.
[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 2 The filter assembly 200 also includes an air inlet box 230. Multiple air inlet boxes 230 are installed at the rear end of the air outlet box 220. The interior of the rear end of the air outlet box 220 is connected to the front end of the multiple air inlet boxes 230. In actual use, outside air enters the air outlet box 220 through the multiple air inlet boxes 230 and finally participates in the air conditioning process. The air inlet holes on the outside of the multiple air inlet boxes 230 are used to filter the air and prevent impurities from mixing into the air and entering the air conditioner.
[0029] Each air inlet box 230 has multiple air inlet holes on its outer wall, and the air outlet box 220 has multiple air outlet holes evenly distributed on its front side. In actual use, the diameter of the air inlet holes can be set according to the actual filtration requirements. A filter screen can also be added to the outer wall of the air inlet box 230 to improve the filtration effect. However, the added filter screen needs to be flat and should not affect the normal cleaning work of the cleaning brush 330.
[0030] As the first embodiment of this utility model, by installing a dust collection tray 100 at the lower end of the filter component 200, in actual use, when the cleaning component 300 cleans the air inlet box 230, the impurities cleaned off will fall downwards under the action of gravity and eventually fall into the dust collection tray 100. The dust collection tray 100 can receive the dust cleaned off by the cleaning component 300, avoiding the dust generated during cleaning from falling directly, and facilitating the subsequent centralized treatment of the dust.
[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The cleaning component 300 also includes a first guide rod 310 and a second guide rod 350. A second guide rod 350 is fixed to the lower right side and the upper left side of the rear end of the fixing frame 210, and a first guide rod 310 is fixed to the upper right side and the lower left side of the rear end of the fixing frame 210.
[0032] Each guide rod 2 350 has a forward and reverse motor installed on the outer wall of its front end. The inner end of the forward and reverse motor is fixed with a drive pulley. Each guide rod 2 350 has a driven pulley rotatably installed inside its rear end.
[0033] The driving pulley and the driven pulley are respectively connected to the front end and the rear end of the transmission belt for rotational transmission. Each guide rod 350 has a guide groove 351 facing downward on its upper surface.
[0034] A connecting sleeve 340 is welded to the upper left and right sides and the lower left and right sides of the mounting frame 320, respectively. The four connecting sleeves 340 are slidably connected to two guide rods 1 310 and two guide rods 2 350, respectively.
[0035] The lower end of the connecting sleeve 340 located on the second guide rod 350 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transmission belt through a connecting block and screws. A limit plate is provided at the rear end of the two first guide rods 310 and the two second guide rods 350.
[0036] Each air inlet box 230 has a cleaning brush 330 in contact with its left and right sides respectively, and the distance between the two air inlet boxes 230 is less than the maximum diameter of the cleaning brush 330. The outer wall of the cleaning brush 330 is provided with four sets of vertically distributed bristles for cleaning the outer wall of the air inlet box 230.
[0037] As a second embodiment of this utility model, based on the first embodiment described above, the cleaning component 300 is configured such that, in actual use, each guide rod 350 has a forward / reverse motor mounted on its front outer wall, with a drive pulley fixed to the inner end of the motor, and a driven pulley rotatably mounted inside the rear end of each guide rod 350. The drive pulley and driven pulley are respectively connected to the front and rear ends of the transmission belt. When the air inlet box 230 needs cleaning, the two forward / reverse motors are started simultaneously. Driven by the motors, the drive pulley drives the transmission belt. Furthermore, the lower end of the connecting sleeve 340 on the guide rod 350 is connected by a connecting block and screws. The connecting sleeve 340 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transmission belt, which causes the connecting sleeve 340 to move accordingly, thereby driving the entire mounting frame 320 to move back and forth under the guidance of guide rod 1 310 and guide rod 2 350. Since the left and right sides of each air inlet box 230 are in contact with a cleaning brush 330 respectively, and the distance between the two air inlet boxes 230 is less than the maximum diameter of the cleaning brush 330, the multiple cleaning brushes 330 installed on the fixed frame 210 continuously rotate and rub against the outer wall of the air inlet box 230 under the push of the fixed frame 210 (the cleaning brush 330 is rotated and installed on the fixed frame 210), thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning. There is no need to directly disassemble for dust cleaning; you only need to take out the dust collection tray 100 after cleaning.
[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
