BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of Invention

100011 The present invention relates to an environmentally-friendly exhaust device and more particularly to a filter screen assembly having multiple layers of filter screens for carrying out multiple filtering. An integrated process is employed for enhancing the efficiency of exhaust filtering or purification and achieving the environmentally-friendly elThcts.

Related Art [0002] People nowadays frequently emphasize environmentally-friendly awareness, and exhaust from various sources contains a great amount of poisonous substances such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon and oxysulfide, etc. [00031 Conventional exhaust devices employ sponge to absorb and filter the oil mist or vapor during the process of oil mist. Such method requires changing of the sponge very often, and it is even more troublesome to change the sponge absorbed with oil. Furthennore, the replacement process costs manpower and time. The need for replacing the sponge very often will also increase the cost and therefore the conventional devices and method are not economically effective.

[0004] Additionally, conventional method for separating oil mist from air is performed by filling the oil mist into a waste water pool and detergent is added into the waste water pool.

Then, the waste water pool is stirred over and over again to mix the detergent with oil. The oil will dissolve in the water. Such mixing method requires very high costs and is also not economically effective.

[0005] An environmentally-friendly exhaust device is provided by the present invention for improving the above-mentioned drawback of economical ineffectiveness of the conventional exhaust filtering method and purification method.

An oil discharge portion 74 is disposed on the oil storage pipe 73.

100581 Please refer to Fig. 12 for the operation the present invention. A motor (the motor for extracting air is conventional and therefore is not shown in the drawings) is employed for extracting air and oil mist into the air inlet pipe 32. The air and oil niist will blow and move the actuating plate 37 when passing through the water spray device 30. The actuating plate 37 will actuate the actuating portion 36 to press toward the mist spray elastic switch 34. Then, the mist sprayer 33 will spray mist. At this point, the mist sprayed by the mist sprayer 33 cleanses the actuating plate 37 and the mist will be driven by the wind power of the air inlet pipe 32 to flow inside the outer tank 10, and the mist will be transformed into liqud water. Pressure will be stopped exerted on the actuating plate 37 when the wind power disappears. At this point, the actuating plate 37 will be restored to actuate and causes the actuating portion 36 to stop pressing the mist spray elastic switch 34, and the mist spray elastic switch 34 is automatically restored and stopped to spray mist. The above water outlet structure of the mist spray elastic switch 34 is a conventional automatically restored flushing structure of a pressing type urinal, and therefore \vill not be described herein. Furthermore, the water source for the mist sprayer 33 can be controlled by the water controlling element 35. The water controlling element 35 can open and close the water source.

[0059] When the water, air and oil mist flow from the air inlet pipe 32 toward the outer tank 10, they will he guided by the upper guiding plate 25 and the lower guiding plate 26 to flow to the bottom of the outer tank 10. The water and oil will remain at the boftom of the outer tank and will flow inside the water outlet pipe 19 through the guiding groove portion 123. The air flows downwardly and forms a vortex when passing through the upper guiding plate 25 and the lower guiding plate 26. The vortex flows to the bottom of the outer tank 10 and drives the rotational rods 151 and the air propellers 152 to rotate. The vortex will be stopped by the stopping plate 125 when it passes through the bottom. Thc vortex will flow upwardly along the guiding grooves 16 and thcn flow toward the inner pipc 20. Thereby, the vortex flow is produccd repeatedly to stir the water and oil at the bottom of the outer tank 10, and a detergent can be ftirthcr used for puriI'ing the oil.

[0060] The stirring of the water and oil will produce stain. The stain caused by ripples will be adhered on screen holes of each of the are-shaped screens 231. Thereby, the effect of filtering is achieved. The air flowed inside the inner pipe 20 will flow upwardly to the air sleeve and is filtered by the fixed filter screen 61 in the air sleeve 60. The air will thell leave the air sleeve 60 upwardly. The air will pass through the circular screen 54 in a path leaving the air sleeve 60 upwardly. The oil in the air will be filtered again by the circular screen 54. The oil will remain on the circular screen 54 and flow slowly downwardly to the supporting portion 55. The oil on the supporting portion 55 will flow along thc oil pipe linc 56. Please refer to Fig. 13. Ilic oil passes through tlic bottom of thc outer tank 10 and flows to the oil and water scparating tank along the oil pipe linc 56.

[0061] According to the above-mentioned description of the present invention, the water and oil will be settled on the bottom of the outer tank 10. After a long period of time, the oil and the water will be separated to dispose at the top and bottom respectively. The first water outlet switch 191 can he opened for the water to flow out from the water outlet pipe 19 if' there is too much water, and therefore the water amount can he reduced. Furthermore, the second water outlet switch 193 can be opened for the water to flow out from the water outlet connection pipe 192 when a water level is higher than the water outlet connection pipe 192, and thereby a water level at the bottom of the outer tank 10 can be lowered.

100621 Furthermore, thc water and oil can flow inside the oil and \vater separating tank through the oil outlet 17 and the water outlet 18 respectively for separation. The water at the bottom of the oil and water separating tank 70 can flow out from the water discharge portion 72 of the oil and water separating tank 70. The oil at thc top of thc oil and water separating tank 70 can he discharged through the oil discharge portion 74 when a level of the oil reaches a certain height of the oil storage pipe 73.

[0063] According to the above-mentioned description, the present invention has two advantages: Firstly, the filter screen assembly 23 of the present invention can carry out multiple filtering and achieve the environmentally-friendly effects. The filter screen assembly 23 can be removed for replacement by holding the connecting rods 232 and therefore the present invention is practical and convenient. Secondly, the air, oil mist and water entered into the present invention pass through the upper guiding plate 25, the lower guiding plate 26 and the air propellers 152, and thereby the vortex flaw is produced for puriing the oil. Such an integrative process can enhance the efficiency of exhaust and achieve the environmentally-friendly effects.

[0064] Note that the specifications relating to the above embodiments should be construed as exemplary rather than as limitative of the present invention, with many variations and modifications being readily attainable by a person of average skill in the art without departing from the spirit or scope thereof as defined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents.
