The invention is equally applicable to forward and reverse directional cyclones.
Description
2353962 CMUM ODLUMMR P'ield of e invention The present invention relates
to a cyclone collector, and more particularly, to a cyclone collector whia.h. is suitable for a vacuum cleaner.
Background of the Related Art
Generally, a cyclofte collector is a devace collecting io contaminants uql as dusts, naps, and piper scraps contained in the air, using a cyclone principle. A cyclone collector is being used in various fields, -and mainly applied to a vacuum cleaner for home 4se.
Various types of cyclone collectors are proposed in such is documents as US Patent 4643748, US Patent 4353008, US Patent 5078761, US Patent 145499 and so on.
There may be two types of cyclone collectors: a forwazd directional cyclonb collector in which a direction that air containing contaminants ("contaminated &.ir") is induced and a direction that purified air 2.s exhausted are substantially same; and a reverse -direct iona I cyclone collec-'Cor in which the sai-d directions are different.
A related srt uni-directional cyclone collector will be I described in detail.
The related art uni-directional cyclone collector includes collectors in which air suction Is par-fcrmed in axial direction of a cyclone body (Fiq5, 1 and 2), and other colle--tors in which 5 air suction is performed in tangent direction (Figs. 3 and 4).
An embodiment of the related art uni-directional cyclone collector will be described referring to Figs. I and 2.
A suction inlet 2 for sucking contaminated air in axial direction is formed at one side of a cylindrical cyclcne body 1, io a-ad an air vent 4 for exhausting purified air in axial direction is formsd at other side thereof. A neans 3 fQr supplying is formed inside the cyclone body 1 to rotate the air sucked, in axial direction in tangent di-rection. A contaminant vent 5 is formed at the air vent 4 to 4uide contaminants separated by a centrifugal forcd in a tangant direction, and a collecting bag 6 is detachably mounted at one side of the contaminant vent S.
As shown in Figs. 3 and 4, another embodiment of the related art unidirecticnal cyclone collecto= basically has a similar structure, except that t"here is no separate means for supplying rotative force sinca a sucticn inlet 12 is provded in tangent direction of a cyclone body 11. Reference numerals 13, 14 and 15 denote an air vent, a contarninant vent, and a collecting bag, re2pectively.
Meanwhile, in case of applying the aforementioned cyclone collectoz to a vacuum c];Aaner, the cyclone collector may be 2 mounted either in a vacuvm cleaner body, or between the body and the suction inlet body. The ooeration of the related art cyclone collector will be described referfing to Figs. I and 2. 5 When a cyclone collector is in operation, a suction force generating mean3 such as a suction fan (not sho-,n) is put to work to produce suction --Force, and contaminant is sucked into the cyclone body I together with air throug-h the suction inlet 2. At this time, contaminated air sucked in axial direction is given rotative force in tangent direction passing through the means 3 for supplying rotative force, and the contaminated air rotates in the cyclone body I as a result. Accordingly, relatively light air concentrates to the center of the cy=lone body I and makes a whirlwind, because the relatively light air receives less centrifugal force, This air is exhausted through the air vent 4 when air flow in a direction of the air vent (axhausz air) is forrr.e--4at a certaia moment.
On the other hand, contaminants heavier than air receive more centrifugal force and flow along an inner wall of the cyclone body 1, so as to move into the c.ollecting bag 6 mounted at the contaminant vent 5.
When more than certain amount of contamnants are collected in the collecting bag 6, a user may separate the collecting bag from the contamiriant vent 5 and remove the contaminants, then may 2 Si join the collecting baq to the contaminant vent 5 to use it 3 again.
The o-peration principle of another embodiment of the related art cyclone collector (Figs. and 4) is!a3iCdlly sarne wth the aforementioned operation, except:hat contaminated air F receives centrifugal force without any separate means for supplying rotative force, because the contamiriated air is enterod. into the cyclone body Ln tangentdiraction.
A related art rever3e-directional cyclone collector will be described referring to Fig. B. Ic A suction inlet 32 is formed at an upper part of a cylindrical cyclone body 31 to suck contaminated air in tangent direction, and a contamInant. vent 4 for guiding the cofttaminants separated by the centrifugal force in tangent direction is formed at a lower part of the cyclone body 31. A collecting bac- 35 is detachably mounted at the contaminant vent 34.
Meanwhile, unlike the f orward directional cyclone collector, -an the reverse-directional cyclone director, an air Vent 34 for exhausting purified aiz is formed at which the s-action inlet 32 is formed, that isr at the upper part of the cyclone body 31 in axial direction.
The operation of the aforementioned revers a -directional cvclone collector will be desc.-ibed below.
Contaminated air which is sucked into the suction inlet 32 rotates along an inner wall Qf the cyclone body 31 and at the same time descends. In this process, contaminants are separated 4 from the cyclone body 31 and collected in the collecting bag 35. Meanwhile, puzified air is moved up by '.--he suction force applied through the air 'vent 33, changing its direction from the lower part of the cyclone body I to the air veat 33, to be exhausted 5 outside of the cyclone body 31.
That is, in the zeverse-directional cyclone collecitor, a flow (swirl) rotating along an inner wall cf the cyclone body I becomes an exhaust air flow which changes its difection at the lower part of the cyclone body (opposite to the air vent) and rICve$ up.
However, the related art cyclone collector has several problems.
Fitst, si=6 tKe contaminated aLr which -;.s sucked into the cyclone body doesn't receive sufficient centrifugal force, is coritaninants are not affect-L-vely collected, but. are exhausted outside of the cyrlone body together with the exhaust air, thereby zeducing the collecting effciency, Second, swirl flow and exhaust air tlow generated in ttbe cyclone body interfere with each other and generates flow resistance, thereby increasing pressure loss and noise. This problem is particularly serious in the reverse -di rectiorial cyclone co:lector. The reason whit is that flow rotating at the -lower part of the cyclone body comes into collision against exhaust air flow when the flow is changed to the exhaxst air flow, thereby gerierating a warm air which acts as an a:Lr resistance ale-ment.
aSaMEY gZ_ THE jM=:rOiq Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a cyclone collectnr for vacuum cleana4 that addresses one or more of the problems due to limitations and disadvantages of the related art.
It would be desirable to provide a cyclone collector for vacuum cleaner, which improves collecting efficiency.
It would also be desirable to provide a cyclone collector for vacuum cleaner, which reduces flow resistance so as to reduce noise and pressura lose.
Additional advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will. be apparent frcm the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure p&rticularly pointed out in the written de8cript-4on and claims hereof as well as the appended drawingi.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a cyclone collector including a cyclone body, a contaminated air suction inlet for sucking contaminants and air into the 6 cyclone body, an air vent for exhausting air purified in the cyclone body, and a contaminant vent for. exhausting the contarninants separated from the cyclonq body, the cyclone collector is characterized i.n that the cyclone body includea a Elow guide means therein, which is disposed opposite to the air vent so as to improve swirl fo'rce Lnside the cyclone body and prevent nwicl flow and exhaust air flow from interfering with each other. Preferably, the flow guide means has a larger diameter toward the air vent so as to prevent swirl flow and exhaust air flow frcm interfering with each other.-Preferably, the flow guide means also has a cylindrical guide member at one end thereof, which supports the flow interference preventlon member and prevents the sucked air from flowing to a region on which szction fox7ce generated through the air vent acts, It is to be t,rtderstood that both the foregoing general description dnd the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention as claimed.

DETAIL= DE$CRIPTZQH OF =L-PREER P IMODIMENT RPM g T.eference will now be made in detail tc the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illust-rated in the accompanying drawings.
An embodiment of the present invention will be explained referring to the accompanying drawings.
rig. 7 is a longitudinal sectional view silowing a cyclone collector in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention. -Lhe first embodiment of a cy--lone sollectcr in accordance with the present invention will be aJescribed 5 referring to Fig. 7.
Same eleinents as thi related art cyclone collector are given same names &nd reference numerals, and explanations for those elements will be omitted.
The cyclone collector according to the ftrst embodiment of the present inuention basically includes a cyizlone body 1, a contaminated air suction irtlet 2, an air vent 4, a collecting bag 6, and a means 3 for supplying rotative force in zhe same manner as the related art cy'cLo'ne collector.
However, in the cyc.lone oollector of the prGsent invention, is a flow guide meana is provided at a certain place inside the cyclone body. The flow guide means acts to improve a centrifugal force of air which is sucked into the cyclone body 1, and to reduce a flow resistance. At this time, the flow guide means is preferably located opposiite to the air vent 4. In more detail, 2(7 the flow guiding means is providad at an outlet o the rotative force supplying xneans 3.
The flow guide means includes a guiding menber 7 and a flow inter f'erence prevention member 8 connected with the guide membar 7, for guidIng air to the inner wall of the cyclone body I and for reducing the flow rezistance.
9 Preferably, the guide member 7 has a cyLindrical shape.
The flow interference prevention membe-, a increases in its shape from an air-suction part to an air-exhaust part, and the larger end is preferably subsided to form a depre3sion @a, This is because the flow interference prev6r.tion member 8 fo=ed as above may guide air more efficiently to the inner wall of the cyclone body ag the air moves from the air-suotion part to the air-exhaust part. This is also because that the flow interference preventicn, member 8 may effectively prevent swirl and exhaust alr flow from interfering with each ol.-her.
Any shape in wh1ch a size becomes larger from the airsuction part to the air-exhaust part can be applied for the flow.;.nt-erference provention member S. For example, a funnel shape, a trumpet shape, a serni-spherical shape, or a skirt shape may be applied for the flow intezference prevention member 8.
A uni-direction&I cyclone collector in accordance with the first embodiment of the pressnt invention will be described referring to Fig. 6.
If the cyclone collector is set into operation., contaminated air is sucked into the cyclone body I through the suctLon inlet 2 of the cyclone body 1. The sucked contaminated air is given a rotative force in tangent direction, passing through the rotative force supplying means 3.
The air to be exhausted, which is givon a rotative force from the rotative force'supplying means 3 11 guided to an inner wall of the cyclone body 1. At this time, the contaminated air is spread to the inner wall of the cyclone bocty, more. efficiently with the flow interference prevention member 8 of which the diameter becomes la:zgez from tie air-suction part to the air-exhaust part. That is, the contaminated air which is sucked into the cyclone body I is forclibly spreading to the inner wall of the cyclone body I by ths flow guide means.
The air and contaminants efficient-ly guided.to -the inner wall of the cyclone body I by the f low guide means 8 receive 2.0 different centrifugal force3 because of weight difterence.
Accordingly, the air wbich is relatively light concentrates to the center of the cyclone body I and generates a whirlwind, then is formed as an' exhaust air flow at a certin moment and exhausted through the air vent 4. On the other hand, relatively 1.5 heavier cant&minanta continually move along the in.ner wall of tie cyclone body I and are then exhausted in tangent direction through the contaminant vent 5, to be finally collected to the collecting bag 6.
In this process, an initial air flow (swirl) which is given a rotative force by the rotative force supplying means 3 is guided to the inner wall of the cyclone body 1 by the flow guide means. Accordingly, contaminants can efficiently be prevented f ror. be2.ng directly exhausted to the air vent 4 together with the exhaust air without flowing to the inner wall of the cyclone body 2S 1 by air exhaust pressure generated along the air vent 4.
11 A cyclono collector In accordaqce with the second embodiment of the present invention will be described ref e.rring 7co Fig..1.
A basic strUcture of the second embodiment is similar to that; of the first embodiment, that is, the second embodiment also includes a cyclone body 11, a contam-inated air sixtion inlet 12, an air vent 13, and a collecting bag 15. However, the air auction inlet 12 is fo=ed in tangent direction of the cyclone body 11, and thus a means for supplying rotative force is not formed.
A flow guide means is formed opposite to the air vent 14 10. also in the seccnd embodiment, and the flcw gu.de means includes a guide member 27 and a flow interference prevention nember 18- The operation principle of the secQnd embod=ent is same with that of the aforementioned first embodiment, and its descrJ. tion will be omitted. P A cyclQne collector in accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention will be described refer--Ing to Fig. B. In the third embodiment, a flow guicle means which is a mair. feature of the present invention is applied to a reverse-d-irect.-'onal cyclone collector. In the fourth embodiment, in the same manner as the aforementioned embodiments, a flow guide means includes a guide member 37 and a flow Interference prevention member 38, The flow guide means is also provided OpPOSite to the air vent 33, that is, at a lower part of the cyclone body 31. Of course, a larger end of the flow interference prevention member 38 is oriented to the air vent 33 and is depressed. to the fourth embodiment, the guide member 37 acts to guide contaminants separated by the centrifugal force to -be efficiently exhausted to the collecting bag 35, rather than guide the euction air.
With the above structur4, collision and interference may he efftclently decxeased by the flow guide means im the process of changing swirl sucked by the contaminated air.5action inlet 32 and rotating at the lower part of the cyclone bocLy 31 to exhaust air flow,, thereby reducing the flow resistance. Accordin;ly, pressure lozs and noise may also be reduced In more detail, swirl rotating toward the lower part of the cyclone body 31 is given the air exhaust pressure through the air vent and changed to the extiaust air flow. At this time, the flow may naturally be changed along the depresaion inside the flow guide means, thezeby avoiding interference and col'Liaicn between the air flows. Furthermore, the flow guide means separates the contam.1nantz flowing at the inlet of the contaminant vent inside the cyclone body 31 from the air which is chan7ed from swirl flow to the exhaust air flow, o that the contaminants can be prevented from entering into the exhaust air by interference.
Meanwhile, mhe cyclone collector in accordance with the present invention may be mounted in either a main body of a vacuum cleaner, or between the main body and a suction inlet body of a vacuum cleaner, as described in the related art.
2B As aforementioned, the cyclone collector according to the pxesent invention has the fol.lowing advantages.
Since the contamnated air which is sucked into the'cyclons body thrQugh the suction inlet is efficiently guided to the inner wall of the cyclone body in an Initial step, thq air receives 5 sufficient centrifugal force. Accordingly, the contaminants ssparattd frorri the air move furthest to the center of the cyclone body, on which an air-exhaust pressure (vacuum pressure) acts, thereby efficiently preventing the contaminants from being extaxnally exhausted together with the exhaust air.
Moreover, when swirl flow and exhaust air flow are fQ=ed within the cyclone body, a region of swirl flow and a region of exhaust air flow become distinctive by means of the flow guide means, thereby pzeventing mutual interference. Accordingly, pressure loss and noi.ge can be reduced.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modification5 and variations can be made in the cyclone collector for vacuum cleaner according to the present invention without departing from the scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that tte presont invention covers the modificatons and variations of the invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their e;uivalents, 1+
