Description
Maze, apparatus and method for cleaning gases Background of the invention The invention relates to an apparatus for cleaning gases. The apparatus is intended for removing hazardous particles and unpleasant odors from gases.
The invention further relates to a maze and to a method of cleaning gases.
The field of the invention is defined more specifically in the preambles of the independent claims.
An air purifier or air cleaner is a device which removes contaminants from the air in a room or other indoor space. The air cleaner may be based on filter elements which are configured to trap airborne particles by size exclusion. Air is forced through a filter and particles are physically captured by the filter. The known air cleaning devices have shown to contain some disadvantages. Documents US-7192469- Bl, CN-104492200-A and GB-571311-A disclose gas purifiers which utilize combination of a liquid baths and mazes when separating particles from gases.
Brief description of the invention An object of the invention is to provide a novel and improved maze, apparatus and method for cleaning gases. The maze according to the invention is characterized by the characterizing features of a first independent N 25 apparatus claim. N The apparatus according to the invention is S characterized by the characterizing features of a second O independent apparatus claim. = The method according to the invention is * 30 characterized by the charactering features and steps of an 3 independent method claim. = An idea of the disclosed solution is that gas is Q cleaned by directing it several times through a liquid bath whereby dirt and particles carried by the gas are separated from the gas by means of liquid. In other words, the gas is purified by means of wet washing. At least one maze is utilized for directing the gas several times through the liquid bath. The maze may comprise a labyrinth-like structure which serves as a gas flow directing element.
An advantage of the disclosed solution is that effective cleaning of the gas is achieved when the gas is directed through a liquid bath several times. The gas is forced several times into the liquid and becomes purified before discharged from the maze. The structure of the maze and the entire cleaning apparatus may be simple, durable and easy to manufacture. The apparatus does not require any changeable filter elements and service of the apparatus is fast and easy to execute. Since the maze and the apparatus have no moving components subjected to wear, operation of the maze and the apparatus is reliable.
According to an embodiment, a maze of a gas cleaning apparatus has a labyrinth-like structure for directing flow of gas to be cleaned through a liquid bath. The maze comprises several successive filter plates. The filter plates are made of material impermeable to gas, whereby they serve as gas directing elements. The filter plates are orientated parallel relative to each other, whereby between the successive filter plates are gaps for the flow of gas. Further, the maze is intended to be immersed partly inside a liguid bath. Thus, the maze is configured to direct the gas to be cleaned to zigzag above and below a top surface S of the liquid bath. When the gas dives through the liquid & bath, it becomes simultaneously wet washed. The structure <Q of the maze may be simple and durable.
N 30 According to an embodiment, the liguid inside the E apparatus is in non-flowing state. An advantage of this 2 embodiment is that the structure of apparatus may be simple 2 when no control means are required for controlling = continuous flow of the liquid.
N 35 According to an embodiment, the maze comprises at least 30 parallel filter plates. An advantage is that the gas is forced to penetrate through liquid path 15 or more times so that washing of the gas is effective and quality of the gas exhausted from the apparatus is high. According to an embodiment, the maze comprises at least 50 filter plates. Such a great number of filter plates guarantees high purification results, and still, the structure of the maze may be simple.
According to an embodiment, number of the filter plates is adjustable. The filter plates are mounted in a removable manner to the frame of the maze. This way properties of the maze and the apparatus may be adjusted according to the need. The structure also allows modular basic structure so that mazes with different properties may be manufactured cost effectively.
According to an embodiment, each of the filter plates of the maze have flat surfaces serving as gas directing surfaces. The filter plates may be formed of conventional sheet billets having flat surfaces. This way the filter plates are easy to manufacture utilizing normal sheet work principles and machines. Thus, manufacturing costs may be low. A further advantage is that flat surfaces of the filter plates remain clean since no particles accumulate on their smooth surfaces.
According to an embodiment, structure of the filter plates and their fastening to the frame is executed without using welding and bending. The filter plates may be formed S by cutting and punching and their fastening to the frame & may be based on shape locking. Therefore, the maze is fast <Q and easy to manufacture and manufacturing costs may be low. N 30 According to an embodiment, the filter plates are E without any elements or surface features capable to trap o particles of the gas to be cleaned. In other words, the o filter plates are not designed to execute physical particle = trapping, but instead the liquid does it. Since the filter N 35 plates serve as gas flow directing walls or surfaces, their structure may be very simple and durable.
According to an embodiment, the filter plates of the maze have vertical orientation. Between the parallel successive filter plates are vertical gaps and size of the vertical gaps 1s less than 10 mm. An advantage of this embodiment is that the maze may have a compact structure despite of a large number of vertical filter plates.

Each of the first filter plates comprise at least one first trough opening at the horizontal top side portion of the filter plates for directing the gas flow between the mentioned gaps and above the liquid bath. Each of the second filter plates comprise at least one second through opening at the horizontal bottom side portion of the filter plates for directing the gas flow between the gaps in the liguid bath. The successive first N and second filter plates are arranged in an alternative N order so that the openings of the filter plates provide the P maze with alternating top and bottom horizontal flow paths N 30 between the gaps. Shape of the first and second openings E may be rectangular. The horizontal top and bottom edges of 2 the filter plates may be supported against inner surfaces 2 of filtering chamber or corresponding support surfaces or = elements. N 35 According to an embodiment, the first filter plates disclosed in the previous embodiment comprise several top openings.
The top openings may be arranged in 1 - 3 horizontal rows.
