PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a proper dust removing effect of a filter by enlarging the deforming quantity from the contraction to the swelling of the filter accompanying with from operation to operation stop without elastically deforming a supporting frame.SOLUTION: In a dust collector 1, a downwardly facing cup like support frame 17 whose lower end is open is arrange inside of a pre-filter 19 swelling into a tank 2 below a suction unit 4 and the pre-filter 19 can deform according to the shape of the supporting frame 16 along with negative pressure generated in the downstream side of the pre-filter 19 during operation of the suction unit 4.

Description

本発明は、吸込口を有するタンクの上方に、モータ及び吸込ファンを備えた吸気ユニットを有する本体を載置して、タンク内で吸込口と本体との間に可撓性のフィルタを介在させた集塵機に関する。   In the present invention, a main body having an intake unit having a motor and a suction fan is placed above a tank having a suction port, and a flexible filter is interposed between the suction port and the main body in the tank. Relates to a dust collector.

集塵機は、吸込口を有するタンクの上方に、モータ及び吸込ファンを備えた吸気ユニットを有する本体を載置して、タンク内で吸込口と本体との間に、タンク内へ膨出する布製や紙製の可撓性のフィルタを介在させている。すなわち、モータの駆動で吸込ファンが回転すると、吸込口に接続したホースを介して外気がタンク内に吸い込まれ、吸気ユニットを通って外部へ排出されることで、外気と共にタンク内に吸い込まれた塵埃がフィルタに捕捉されてタンク内に集塵されるものである。吸気ユニットには、特許文献1に示すように、袋状のフィルタの内部に位置して吸引時のフィルタの形状を安定させる支持枠が設けられている。
しかし、このような集塵機においては、粉塵がフィルタに付着して目詰まりし、吸引力が低下する問題があることから、特許文献2には、支持枠を剛鋼線とバネ鋼板とで形成する発明が開示されている。この支持枠(フィルタケージ)は、運転時に目詰まりしたフィルタによって下流側が負圧になると内側へ弾性変形し、運転が停止すると、バネ力によって元の形状へ復帰し、その勢いでフィルタを収縮状態から膨出状態に復帰させて付着した粉塵を自動的に払い落とすようにしたものである。
The dust collector has a main body having an intake unit equipped with a motor and a suction fan above a tank having a suction port, and is made of a cloth that swells into the tank between the suction port and the main body in the tank. A paper flexible filter is interposed. That is, when the suction fan is rotated by driving the motor, the outside air is sucked into the tank through the hose connected to the suction port, and is sucked into the tank together with the outside air by being discharged outside through the intake unit. Dust is captured by the filter and collected in the tank. As shown in Patent Document 1, the intake unit is provided with a support frame that is positioned inside a bag-like filter and stabilizes the shape of the filter during suction.
However, in such a dust collector, there is a problem that dust adheres to the filter and becomes clogged, and the suction force is reduced. Therefore, in Patent Document 2, a support frame is formed of a rigid steel wire and a spring steel plate. The invention is disclosed. This support frame (filter cage) is elastically deformed inward when the downstream side becomes negative pressure due to the filter clogged during operation, and when the operation stops, it returns to its original shape by the spring force, and the filter contracts with that force The dust that has returned to the bulging state from the spilled state is automatically removed.

ところが、特許文献2の支持枠は、全体がカゴ状に形成されているため、弾性変形の変化率が小さく、ひいてはフィルタの収縮から膨出への変形量も小さくなって塵落とし効果が十分とは言えない。また、支持枠を弾性変形させるために鋼線と鋼板とを併用する必要があって製造に係る手間やコストもかさむことになる。   However, since the entire support frame of Patent Document 2 is formed in a cage shape, the rate of change in elastic deformation is small, and the amount of deformation from contraction to bulging of the filter is also small, and the dust removal effect is sufficient. I can't say that. Moreover, in order to elastically deform the support frame, it is necessary to use both a steel wire and a steel plate, which increases the labor and cost involved in manufacturing.

そこで、本発明は、支持枠を弾性変形させることなく運転から運転停止に伴うフィルタの収縮から膨出への変形量を大きくして、フィルタの好適な塵落とし効果が得られる集塵機を提供することを目的としたものである。   Accordingly, the present invention provides a dust collector capable of increasing the amount of deformation from contraction to bulging of the filter that accompanies operation stoppage without causing elastic deformation of the support frame, thereby obtaining a suitable dust removal effect of the filter. It is aimed at.

上記目的を達成するために、請求項1に記載の発明は、吸気ユニットの下方でフィルタの内側に、下端が開口する下向きカップ状の支持枠を設けて、吸気ユニットの運転中にフィルタの下流側で生じる負圧に伴い、フィルタが支持枠の形状に合わせて変形可能としたことを特徴とするものである。
請求項2に記載の発明は、請求項1の構成において、吸気ユニットと支持枠との間に、支持枠の軸線と直交する下面を有する円形筒状の上支持枠を設けて、負圧に伴い、フィルタの側面が上支持枠と支持枠との隙間に合わせて変形可能としたことを特徴とするものである。
請求項3に記載の発明は、請求項1又は2の構成において、フィルタをタンク内への膨出形状に付勢する付勢手段を設けたことを特徴とするものである。
請求項4に記載の発明は、請求項3の構成において、付勢手段を、フィルタの底部に設けられる錘としたことを特徴とするものである。
In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a downward cup-shaped support frame having a lower end opened inside the filter below the intake unit, and the downstream of the filter during operation of the intake unit. With the negative pressure generated on the side, the filter can be deformed in accordance with the shape of the support frame.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the first aspect, a circular cylindrical upper support frame having a lower surface perpendicular to the axis of the support frame is provided between the intake unit and the support frame, and the negative pressure is reduced. Accordingly, the side surface of the filter can be deformed in accordance with the gap between the upper support frame and the support frame.
According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the first or second aspect, a biasing means for biasing the filter into a bulging shape into the tank is provided.
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the third aspect, the urging means is a weight provided at the bottom of the filter.

請求項1に記載の発明によれば、運転から運転停止に伴うフィルタの収縮から膨出への変形量を大きくしてフィルタの好適な塵落とし効果が得られる。またここでは、支持枠を弾性変形させることなく自動塵落としが可能となるため、支持枠を低コストで簡単に製造可能となる。
請求項2に記載の発明によれば、請求項1の効果に加えて、フィルタの側面でも大きな変形量が得られ、塵落とし効果の向上が期待できる。
請求項3に記載の発明によれば、請求項1又は2の効果に加えて、運転停止後のフィルタの膨出形状への復帰が確実且つ勢いよくなされ、さらなる塵落とし効果の向上が図られる。
請求項4に記載の発明によれば、請求項3の効果に加えて、フィルタの形状復帰を簡単な構成で確実に行わせることができる。
According to the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to increase the amount of deformation from the contraction to the bulging of the filter that accompanies the operation to the stoppage, thereby obtaining a suitable dust removing effect of the filter. Here, since automatic dust removal is possible without elastically deforming the support frame, the support frame can be easily manufactured at low cost.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effect of the first aspect, a large amount of deformation can be obtained even on the side surface of the filter, and an improvement in dust removal effect can be expected.
According to the third aspect of the invention, in addition to the effect of the first or second aspect, the filter is reliably and vigorously returned to the bulging shape after the operation is stopped, thereby further improving the dust removing effect. .

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
図1は、集塵機の一例を示す斜視図、図2はその分解斜視図で、この集塵機1は、上面を開口したタンク2の上方に、吸気ユニット4を内蔵した本体3を設けてなる。吸気ユニット4は、タンク2の開口を閉塞して本体3を支持するタンクカバー5によってタンク2の中央上方から吊り下げ支持されており、内部に、図示しないモータとそのモータ駆動で回転する吸込ファンとを内蔵して、下面中央に吸気口6を開口させている。本体3の上部側面には、運転スイッチ7と吸引力の切替スイッチ8とが設けられ、本体3の上部中央にはハンドル9が設けられている。また、タンク2の側面には、ホースやノズル等を接続する吸込口10が設けられると共に、タンクカバー5の外縁に係止して開口を閉塞させるフック11,11が設けられている。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of a dust collector, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view thereof. The dust collector 1 is provided with a main body 3 containing an intake unit 4 above a tank 2 having an upper surface opened. The intake unit 4 is suspended and supported from above the center of the tank 2 by a tank cover 5 that closes the opening of the tank 2 and supports the main body 3, and includes a motor (not shown) and a suction fan that rotates by driving the motor. And an intake port 6 is opened at the center of the lower surface. An operation switch 7 and a suction force changeover switch 8 are provided on the upper side surface of the main body 3, and a handle 9 is provided in the upper center of the main body 3. Further, a suction port 10 for connecting a hose, a nozzle or the like is provided on the side surface of the tank 2, and hooks 11, 11 that are locked to the outer edge of the tank cover 5 and close the opening are provided.

図2に示すように、タンク2と本体3との間には、吸気口6の周囲及び下方を覆うメインフィルタ12が設けられている。このメインフィルタ12は、タンク2の開口に係止されるリング状の上係止部13と、その上係止部13から下方へ連設され、下方へ行くに従って小径となるテーパ状のフィルタ部14とからなる。フィルタ部14は、底面を除く側面全周がフィルタとなっている。   As shown in FIG. 2, a main filter 12 is provided between the tank 2 and the main body 3 to cover the periphery and the lower side of the intake port 6. The main filter 12 includes a ring-shaped upper locking portion 13 that is locked to the opening of the tank 2, and a tapered filter portion that is continuously provided downward from the upper locking portion 13 and decreases in diameter as it goes downward. 14 and. The filter portion 14 is a filter on the entire side surface except the bottom surface.

また、メインフィルタ12には、上支持枠として、フィルタ部14の形状に合わせてその側面全周を外側から覆うテーパ筒状の網体15が設けられると共に、メインフィルタ12の下面中央には、支持枠16が設けられている。この支持枠16は、上端中央がメインフィルタ12の下面に連結されて下端が開口する下向きカップ状で、周方向に所定間隔をおいて放射方向且つ下向きにカーブする複数の縦材17,17・・と、その縦材17に沿って上下方向に所定間隔をおいて固定され、下方へ行くに従って徐々に大径となる複数の円形の横材18,18・・との2種類の線材で形成されている。   Further, the main filter 12 is provided with a tapered cylindrical mesh body 15 as an upper support frame that covers the entire circumference of the side surface from the outside in accordance with the shape of the filter portion 14. A support frame 16 is provided. The support frame 16 has a downward cup shape in which the center of the upper end is connected to the lower surface of the main filter 12 and the lower end is opened, and a plurality of vertical members 17, 17. .. And a plurality of circular cross members 18, 18... Which are fixed at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction along the vertical member 17 and gradually increase in diameter as going downward. Has been.

そして、19は本発明のフィルタとしてのプレフィルタで、メインフィルタ12の上係止部の下側でタンク2の開口に係止されるリング状の下係止部20と、その下係止部20から下方へ連設され、下方へ行くに従って小径となるテーパ状のフィルタ部21とからなる。このフィルタ部21は、可撓性を有する布製又は紙製の有底筒で、メインフィルタ12と共にタンク2の開口へ係止させた状態では、図3に示すように、網体5及び支持枠16を含むメインフィルタ12の全体を下側から覆ってタンク2内に膨出するようになっている。プレフィルタ19の底面中央には、付勢手段としての錘22が取り付けられて、常態ではタンク2内への膨出状態を維持している。   Reference numeral 19 denotes a pre-filter as a filter of the present invention, a ring-shaped lower locking portion 20 that is locked to the opening of the tank 2 below the upper locking portion of the main filter 12, and its lower locking portion. The taper-shaped filter part 21 is provided continuously from 20 and decreases in diameter as it goes downward. The filter portion 21 is a bottomed tube made of cloth or paper having flexibility. When the filter portion 21 is locked to the opening of the tank 2 together with the main filter 12, as shown in FIG. The entire main filter 12 including 16 is covered from below and bulges into the tank 2. A weight 22 as an urging means is attached to the center of the bottom surface of the pre-filter 19 and maintains a bulging state into the tank 2 in a normal state.

以上の如く構成された集塵機1においては、運転スイッチ7のON操作でモータが駆動して吸込ファンが回転すると、吸込口10に接続したホース等を介して外気がタンク2内に吸引され、プレフィルタ19及びメインフィルタ12を通過して吸気口6から吸気ユニット4内に吸い込まれて、吸込ファンから図示しない送気路へ送られ、図示しない排気口から排出されるものとなる。これにより、外気と共にタンク2内に吸引された塵埃がまずプレフィルタ19のフィルタ部21に捕捉され、プレフィルタ19を通過した細かい粉塵はメインフィルタ12のフィルタ部14に捕捉されることになる。   In the dust collector 1 configured as described above, when the motor is driven by the ON operation of the operation switch 7 and the suction fan rotates, outside air is sucked into the tank 2 through a hose connected to the suction port 10 and the like. The air passes through the filter 19 and the main filter 12 and is sucked into the intake unit 4 from the intake port 6 and is sent from the intake fan to an air supply path (not shown) and discharged from an exhaust port (not shown). Thereby, the dust sucked into the tank 2 together with the outside air is first captured by the filter portion 21 of the prefilter 19, and the fine dust that has passed through the prefilter 19 is captured by the filter portion 14 of the main filter 12.

この運転中に粉塵がプレフィルタ19のフィルタ部21に付着して目詰まりすると、フィルタ部21の通気性が低下して下流側が負圧となるため、フィルタ部21は、図4に示すように、側面が網体15と支持枠16との隙間に嵌り込むと共に、錘22を有する底面が支持枠16の内部に下方から嵌り込んで、網体15及び支持枠16に張り付く格好で収縮変形する。
但し、メインフィルタ12側では、プレフィルタ19が変形しても網体15の表面に張り付くにとどまり、フィルタ部14には直接張り付かない上、支持枠16と併せてそれ以上の変形が防止されるため、集塵に必要な有効表面積は維持できる。
If dust adheres to the filter part 21 of the pre-filter 19 and becomes clogged during this operation, the air permeability of the filter part 21 is reduced and the downstream side becomes negative pressure. The side surface fits into the gap between the mesh body 15 and the support frame 16, and the bottom surface having the weight 22 fits into the support frame 16 from below, and shrinks and deforms in a fashion that sticks to the mesh body 15 and the support frame 16. .
However, on the main filter 12 side, even if the pre-filter 19 is deformed, it stays stuck to the surface of the mesh body 15 and does not stick directly to the filter portion 14, and further deformation together with the support frame 16 is prevented. Therefore, the effective surface area required for dust collection can be maintained.

そして、運転スイッチ7をOFF操作すると、モータが停止して外気の吸引が停止するため、下流側の負圧が解消したプレフィルタ19は、再びタンク2内への膨出状態に復帰する。このとき、錘22によってフィルタ部21の底面が支持枠16の下方へ勢いよく復帰すると共に、その復帰と共にフィルタ部21の側面も網体15と支持枠16との間から外側へ勢いよく復帰する。よって、フィルタ部21に付着していた粉塵はフィルタ部21から払い落とされてタンク2内に落下する。   When the operation switch 7 is turned OFF, the motor is stopped and the suction of outside air is stopped. Therefore, the prefilter 19 from which the negative pressure on the downstream side has been released returns to the state in which the prefilter 19 is expanded into the tank 2 again. At this time, the weight 22 vigorously returns the bottom surface of the filter portion 21 to the lower side of the support frame 16, and at the same time, the side surface of the filter portion 21 also vigorously returns from between the mesh body 15 and the support frame 16 to the outside. . Therefore, the dust adhering to the filter unit 21 is removed from the filter unit 21 and falls into the tank 2.

このように、上記形態の集塵機1によれば、吸気ユニット4の下方でプレフィルタ19の内側に、下端が開口する下向きカップ状の支持枠16を設けて、吸気ユニット4の運転中にプレフィルタ19の下流側で生じる負圧に伴い、プレフィルタ19が支持枠16の形状に合わせて変形可能としたことで、運転から運転停止に伴うプレフィルタ19の収縮から膨出への変形量を大きくしてプレフィルタ19の好適な塵落とし効果が得られる。またここでは、支持枠16を弾性変形させることなく自動塵落としが可能となるため、支持枠16を低コストで簡単に製造可能となる。
因みに、上記集塵機1において、集塵量を0gから100gずつ1500gまで増加して各集塵量での流速を測定する試験を、500gごとに運転停止してプレフィルタ19による自動塵落としを行わせて実施した結果、集塵量0gでの流速を100として集塵量の増加に従って40程度まで低下したものが、500gごとの運転停止の際には何れも70以上まで回復することが確認できた。
Thus, according to the dust collector 1 of the said form, the downward cup-shaped support frame 16 which a lower end opens is provided in the inside of the pre-filter 19 under the intake unit 4, and a pre-filter during operation of the intake unit 4 is provided. Since the prefilter 19 can be deformed in accordance with the shape of the support frame 16 along with the negative pressure generated on the downstream side of the 19, the amount of deformation from contraction to bulging of the prefilter 19 due to operation stoppage is increased. Thus, a suitable dust removing effect of the pre-filter 19 is obtained. Further, here, automatic dust removal can be performed without elastically deforming the support frame 16, so that the support frame 16 can be easily manufactured at low cost.
Incidentally, in the dust collector 1, the test for increasing the dust collection amount from 0 g to 1500 g in increments of 100 g and measuring the flow rate at each dust collection amount is stopped every 500 g and the automatic dust removal by the prefilter 19 is performed. As a result, it was confirmed that the flow rate when the dust collection amount was 0 g was set to 100, and the flow rate decreased to about 40 as the dust collection amount increased. .

特にここでは、吸気ユニット4と支持枠16との間に、支持枠16の軸線と直交する下面を有する円形筒状の網体15を設けて、負圧に伴いプレフィルタ19の側面が網体15と支持枠16との隙間に合わせて変形可能としているので、プレフィルタ19の側面でも大きな変形量が得られ、塵落とし効果の向上が期待できる。
また、プレフィルタ19をタンク2内への膨出形状に付勢する付勢手段(錘22)を設けているので、運転停止後のプレフィルタ19の膨出形状への復帰が確実且つ勢いよくなされ、さらなる塵落とし効果の向上が図られる。
さらに、付勢手段を、プレフィルタ19の底部に設けられる錘22としたことで、プレフィルタ19の形状復帰を簡単な構成で確実に行わせることができる。
In particular, here, a circular cylindrical mesh body 15 having a lower surface orthogonal to the axis of the support frame 16 is provided between the intake unit 4 and the support frame 16, and the side surface of the prefilter 19 is meshed with the negative pressure. Since it can be deformed in accordance with the gap between the support frame 16 and the support frame 16, a large amount of deformation can be obtained even on the side surface of the prefilter 19, and an improvement in dust removal effect can be expected.
Further, since the urging means (weight 22) for urging the prefilter 19 into the bulging shape into the tank 2 is provided, the prefilter 19 can be reliably and vigorously returned to the bulging shape after the operation is stopped. As a result, the dust removal effect is further improved.
Furthermore, the urging means is the weight 22 provided at the bottom of the prefilter 19, so that the shape of the prefilter 19 can be reliably restored with a simple configuration.

なお、支持枠の形態は、カップ状であれば深さや大きさは適宜変更可能で、線材でなく網体や透孔を備えた板体等で形成したりしてもよい。これは上支持枠も同様で、深さや大きさはメインフィルタに合わせて適宜変更可能で、網体でなく線材で形成したりしてもよい。
また、錘も上記形態に限らず、数や形状は変更して差し支えないし、内面でなく外面に取り付けてもよい。勿論付勢手段としては錘に限らず、例えば支持枠の内面との間や上支持枠と支持枠との隙間にスポンジやバネ等の弾性材を介在させたりすることで形成してもよい。但し、これらの上支持枠や付勢手段は省略してもよい。
そして、集塵機自体の構造も、上記形態ではプレフィルタに対して本発明を適用しているが、例えばメインフィルタがなく、タンク内に膨出する単一のフィルタのみで塵埃の捕捉を図る集塵機であっても、本発明は適用可能である。
In addition, if the form of the support frame is cup-shaped, the depth and size can be changed as appropriate, and the support frame may be formed by a plate or the like provided with a net or a through hole instead of a wire. This is the same for the upper support frame, and the depth and size can be appropriately changed in accordance with the main filter, and may be formed of a wire instead of a net.
Further, the weight is not limited to the above form, and the number and shape may be changed, and may be attached to the outer surface instead of the inner surface. Of course, the urging means is not limited to the weight, and may be formed by interposing an elastic material such as a sponge or a spring between the inner surface of the support frame or between the upper support frame and the support frame. However, these upper support frames and biasing means may be omitted.
