(Embodiment 1)
First, the configuration of Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a cooking heater 1, which is an example of a cooking unit of a kitchen, is provided on a cooking table, a main body 2 is provided on the back of the cooking heater 1, and oil smoke cooked by the cooking heater 1 on the upper part of the main body 2. The suction port 3 for sucking in is provided. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, an exhaust port 4 is provided in the lower part of the main body 2 on the back side of the cooking heater 1.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the main body 2 is provided with a charging unit 6 and a dust collecting unit 7, which are components of the electric dust collecting unit 5, on the downstream side of the suction port 3. It arrange | positions so that it may be located in an upstream rather than. Next, a charging unit cleaning unit 8 and a charging unit drying unit 9 for cleaning the charging unit 6 are provided in the vicinity of the electrostatic dust collecting unit 5. Further, in order to clean the dust collection unit 7, a dust collection unit cleaning unit 10 and a dust collection unit drying unit 11 are provided. Since the drainage of the cleaning liquid after the charging unit 6 and the dust collection unit 7 are cleaned by the charging unit cleaning unit 8 and the dust collection unit cleaning unit 10 includes collected oil, the drain plate 12 which is an example of a recovery unit is used. to recover. A deodorant 13 and a sirocco fan 14 which is an example of a blowing unit are installed on the downstream side of the electric dust collecting unit 5, and clean air is discharged from the exhaust port 4.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the dust collecting section 7 is provided with drive shafts 15 on both sides, and the drive shaft 15 on one side is connected to a drive motor 16 which is an example of a drive means.

  Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 1, when the cooking heater 1 is turned on and a cooking utensil (not shown) on the cooking heater 1 is heated, cooking oil (not shown) used for cooking becomes oil smoke, Since the temperature of the oily smoke is high, the body 2 is turned on to fill the room. When the power of the main body 2 is turned on and the sirocco fan 14 provided inside the main body 2 is activated, the air in the room is rapidly drawn from the inlet 3. Suction and oil smoke are attracted and sucked into the suction port 3.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the sucked oil smoke is charged by the charging unit 6 and flows downstream, and the charged oil smoke is collected by the dust collecting unit 7. As an example, air from which oil has been removed by about 99% contains a slight amount of oil and odor components, and therefore the remaining oil and odor components are collected by the deodorant 13. The deodorant 13 is made of activated carbon as an example of a material, and is periodically replaced depending on the state of oil adhesion and the state of odor component collection.

  The air from which the odor has been removed is returned to the room from the exhaust port 4 as clean air.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a large amount of oil to be collected adheres to the upstream side of the dust collection unit 7, and therefore can be rotated by driving the dust collection unit 7 with a drive motor 16 in a certain period. The oil is collected uniformly throughout.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a slight amount of oil or dirt adheres to the charging unit 6, and most of the oil and dirt adheres to the dust collecting unit 7. Therefore, after the electric dust collecting unit 5 is operated for a certain period of time, The energization of the electric dust collector 5 is stopped, and the cleaning liquid (water as an example) is ejected from the charging unit cleaning means 8 (an injection nozzle as an example) and the dust collector cleaning means 10 (an injection nozzle as an example) The charging unit 6 and the dust collecting unit 7 of the dust collecting unit 5 are washed.

  First, the structure of Embodiment 2 of this invention is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the charging unit 6 is equipped with a charging unit nozzle 19 that can be cleaned with a cleaning liquid and can jet a jet, the dust collecting unit 7 can be cleaned with a cleaning liquid, and a jet can be jetted out. A dust nozzle 20 is provided.

  Next, the operation of Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 4, when the charging unit 6 and the dust collecting unit 7 are soiled, the charging unit nozzle 19 and the dust collecting unit nozzle 20 spray and wash the cleaning liquid, and then adhere by ejecting a jet. Water can be removed and dried.

  As described above, since the cleaning means and the drying means described in the first embodiment can be configured by one component, the apparatus itself can be downsized with a simple configuration.

  Here, the charging unit nozzle 19 and the dust collecting unit nozzle 20 can be made to oscillate by self-oscillation by adopting a fluid element configuration utilizing the adhesion action of the fluid, and the charging unit 6 and the dust collecting unit 7 are quickly cleaned. be able to.

  As shown in FIG. 3, since the oil to be collected adheres to the dust collecting unit 7 and can be rotated by driving the dust collecting unit 7 with the drive motor 16, the oil is washed with the cleaning liquid at the dust collecting unit nozzle 20. In this case, the entire dust collection unit 7 can be cleaned evenly.

  Further, by providing a protrusion (not shown) on the dust collecting portion 7, the same effect can be achieved without using electric power and saving energy by rotating at the moment of spray of the cleaning liquid without driving the drive motor 16. be able to.

  It can be applied to a kitchen that uses a cooking utensil and is used in conjunction with an exhaust device that removes oily smoke and odor generated by cooking.
