Dust collector provided with a shunt guide plate

Abstract

A dust collector provided with a shunt guide plate includes a main body, a filter drum, a dust collecting barrel and an induced draft device. A cover plate is fixed between the main body and the dust collecting barrel, having a central portion bored with an insert hole corresponding to the main body, and a guide plate is transversely disposed under the cover plate. Thus, the induced draft device is started to absorb airflow with dust into the main body and, when passing through the insert hole of the cover plate, the airflow will be stopped by the guide plate and forced to flow through two sides of the guide plate to form a shunt effect. Thus, when airflow gets into the dust collecting barrel, the dust in the dust collecting barrel will not be affected to rise, enhancing dust collecting effect of the dust collecting barrel.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

(12) A first preferred embodiment of a dust collector provided with a shunt guide plate in the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1-4, includes a main body 10, an induced draft device 20, a cover plate 30, a guide plate 40, a dust collecting barrel 50 and a filter drum 60 as main components combined together.

(13) The main body 10 is provided with an air guide barrel 11 connected with an air intake 12, a first air outlet 13 and a second air outlet 14. The air intake 12 is provided at an outer circumference of the air guide barrel 11 and the first air outlet 13 is positioned at an upper side of the air guide barrel 11, while the second air outlet is at a lower side of the air guide barrel 11. Further, the first air outlet 13 is connected with an air duct 15.

(14) The induced draft device 20 is positioned at an upper side of the air duct 15 and provided with a motor 21 connected with a fan blade 22, which is located in the interior of the air duct 15 and over the first air outlet 13. The motor 21 is started to actuate the fan blade 22 to rotate for forming airflow in the interior of the main body 10.

(15) The cover plate 30 is disposed at the lower side of the second air outlet 14 and bored with an insert hole 31 corresponding to the second air outlet 14.

(16) The guide plate 40 is fixed under the cover plate 30 and transversely stretched across the insert hole 31 of the cover plate 30. The guide plate 40 is a strip-shaped plate, having two ends respectively provided with a connecting position 41 to be fixed on the cover plate 30 by a bolt 42.

(17) The dust collecting barrel 50 is provided under the cover plate 30, connected with the air guide barrel 11 via the insert hole 31 of the cover plate 30 and formed in the interior with an accommodating space 51 for collecting dust therein.

(18) The filter drum 60 is connected with the air dust 15 and provided with an air permeable filter screen 61 with a plurality of pores that are smaller than dust so that dust can be absorbed and attached to the inner wall of the filter drum 60. Further, the filter drum 60 is provided in the center with a cleaning apparatus 62, which contains a guide rod 621 provided thereon with a scraping brush 622 and a grip 623. The cleaning apparatus 62 is for a user to turn around the grip 623 to actuate the scraping brush 622 to rotate in the interior of the filter drum 60, letting the chips and the dust that adhere to the filter drum 60 shake and fall down for cleaning up the filter drum 60.

(19) Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the air intake 12 of the main body 10 is connected with a dust collecting pipe 200. Air with dust can be absorbed into the main body 10 via the induced draft device 20 to form airflow in the interior of the dust collector 100 for carrying out dust separation operation. Thus, when the airflow with dust is in the air guide barrel 11, the dust of lighter weight will be actuated by the airflow to get into the filter drum 60 from the first air outlet 13 and through the air duct 15 and meanwhile, the air permeable filter screen 61 of the filter drum 60 enables the airflow to be guided outward. And the dust of heavier weight will fall into the dust collecting barrel 50 due to gravity. When airflow passes through the insert hole 31 of the cover plate 30, the airflow will be stopped by the guide plate 40 and forced to pass through two sides of the guide plate 40 to form a shunt effect so that, when the airflow gets into the dust collecting barrel 50, the dust in the dust collecting barrel 50 will not be affected by the airflow and scattered upward, thus able to enhance dust separation effect and prolong service life of the dust collector 100 and further unnecessary to clean up the dust collector 100 frequently for elevating working efficiency.

(20) Referring to FIG. 7, when the airflow with dust gets into the dust collecting barrel 50 through the insert hole 31 of the cover plate 30 from the main body 10, the airflow with dust will be stopped by the guide plate 40 and forced to pass through two sides of the guide plate 40 and get into the dust collecting barrel 50 and, when reaching the bottom of the dust collecting barrel 50, the airflow with dust will form a counter flow situation to make the dust raised upward. Simultaneously, the raised airflow will be stopped by the guide plate 40 and can no longer be brought into the main body 10, thus enhancing dust collecting effect of the dust collector.

(21) A second preferred embodiment of a guide plate 40 of the dust collector in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 8, is to have a central location of the guide plate 40 formed into an arc-shaped convex arc portion 43 to enable airflow to smoothly flow toward the insert hole 31 of the cover plate 30 and get into the dust collecting barrel 50 when the airflow flows to the guide plate 40.

(22) A third preferred embodiment of a guide plate 40 of the dust collector in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 9, is to have two sides of a central portion of the guide plate 40 respectively expanded and formed into an arc-shaped protruding edge 44 for increasing an area of stopping dust and airflow when the airflow with dust flows to the guide plate 40.

(23) A fourth preferred embodiment of a guide plate 40 of the dust collector in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 10, is to have the guide plate 40 formed into a X shape for increasing an area of stopping dust and airflow when the airflow with dust flows to the guide plate 40.

(24) While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications may be made therein and the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications that may fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
