【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of an air cleaning device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an air cleaning device 1 according to this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the same. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this air purifying apparatus 1 includes a container body 2 having a jar-like appearance for ornamental purposes and an air purifying mechanism portion 3 incorporated in the container body 2. It has. The container body 2 is provided above and has an air inlet 4 opened so as to suck in dirty air in the room, and has a lower end opened and is provided in the vicinity of the opening to eject purified air to the outside. It is made up of an air jet port 5 that is made possible and a space portion 6 that is provided inside the container body 2 and is capable of incorporating an air cleaning mechanism portion 3 described later. The container body 2 shown in this embodiment is formed as a pottery (for example, Kutani ware) using clay, but in addition to this, ceramics, wood, metal materials, glass materials, resin materials, leather materials, bamboo materials, The container body 2 may be formed using a stone material or the like. Further, the container body 2 of the present embodiment is formed as a pottery having a shape as shown in FIG. 2, but it is needless to say that the container body 2 can be implemented in various shapes other than the shape shown in the present invention. Is. The air cleaning mechanism section 3 includes a substrate 8 having a leg portion 7 at a lower end, an outer body 9 integrally formed on the substrate 8 and having an upper end opening 17, and an outer body 9 inside the outer body 9. The first filter 10 provided, a thin plate 12 having a large number of air vents 11 on which the first filter 10 is placed, a fan 13 disposed below the thin plate 12 and a driving motor 14 for the fan 13, The second filter 15 disposed below the motor 14 is provided. At the lower end of the outer body 9, each hole 16 is provided so as to communicate with the air ejection port 5 of the container body 2. In this embodiment, the outer body 9 is formed in a cylindrical shape. As a material for forming the first filter 10 and the second filter 15, diatomaceous earth, ceramics, or the like can be used. Further, the first filter 10 and the second filter 15 may be formed using a so-called ion curtain made of glass fiber, activated carbon, or a material capable of negatively ionizing air. Further, in the present embodiment, the air purifying mechanism section 3 is a mechanism as shown in the figure, but in the present invention, the air purifying mechanism section 3 is various other mechanism, for example, a centrifugal cleaning mechanism having a cyclone separation structure. , An electrostatic clean air cleaner in which an air stream is passed through an electrostatic field to charge floating particles and then the particles are passed between electrodes to which a DC voltage is applied to be adsorbed to an electrode plate, It may be configured with a mechanism for spraying water into the air to purify the air. In addition, reference numerals 18 and 19 in FIG. 1 respectively have openings 18 'and 19' in the central portion thereof so that the outer body 9 of the air cleaning mechanism portion 3 can be mounted. These are support plate portions that support the outer body 9 in the container body 2 while being joined to the outer peripheral surface of the outer body 9 of the cleaning mechanism portion 3. In the air purifying apparatus 1 of the present embodiment configured as described above, the air purifying mechanism portion 3 is gradually inserted from above the outer body 9 into the space portion 6 of the container body 2, and the air purifying mechanism portion 3 is contained in the container. When installed in the space 6 of the main body 2, the air cleaning device 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is obtained. Therefore, since the container body 2 and the air cleaning mechanism section 3 can be freely separated, the first filter 10 and the second filter 15 of the air cleaning mechanism section 3 can be easily cleaned or replaced. The air cleaning device 1 has a cord (not shown) connected to an outlet (not shown) and a driving motor 14 for the fan 13, respectively, and drives the motor 14 with a household power source. However, in the present invention, it goes without saying that the power source of the motor 14 can be configured as a battery mechanism or a charging mechanism. Hereinafter, the usage of the air cleaning device 1 according to the present invention configured as described above will be described. That is, when a power source (not shown) is turned on, the motor 14 is driven, and the fan 13 is driven along with this driving. Therefore, the air in the room containing odors, dust, etc. exerts a suction action by driving the fan 13, and flows into the container body 2 from the air inlet 4 of the container body 2 by the suction action. Then, the air that has flowed into the container body 2 is first filtered by the first filter 10 of the air cleaning mechanism portion 3 and reaches the inside of the second filter 15 through the thin plate 12 having a large number of vent holes 11. The air is further filtered and purified by the second filter 15. The purified air passes through the air ejection ports 5 of the container body 2 from the holes 16 at the lower end of the outer body 9 of the air cleaning mechanism 3 and is ejected to the outside of the container body 2. Further, if a suitable fragrance material having an aroma action is placed in the vicinity of each hole 16 at the lower end of the outer body 9 of the air cleaning mechanism portion 3 or in the air ejection port 5 below the body 2 of the container, From the air ejection port 5 of the main body 2, purified air containing aroma is ejected into the room. As described above, in the air purifying apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment, the air in the room can be purified, and the container body 2 of the air purifying apparatus 1 itself has an appreciating function for decoration, as shown in FIG. Since it has a jar-like appearance, when this device 1 is placed in a drawing room or Japanese-style room, its appearance is different from the conventional air-cleaning devices that have a mechanical discomfort due to the landscape. In, the appreciation effect as a decorative variety can be exerted. Since the container body 2 in the present embodiment is formed as a pot-shaped pottery such as Kutani ware, for example, the appearance of the air cleaning device 1 can exert a single viewing effect as a decorative product type. When cleaning or replacing the first filter 10 and the second filter 15 of the air cleaning mechanism part 3, the container body 2 and the air cleaning mechanism part 3 can be freely separated from each other. Exchange can be done easily.  3 is a longitudinal sectional view of an air cleaning device 1A according to an embodiment different from the air cleaning device 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and FIG. 4 is a front view of the same. The difference between the air cleaning device 1A shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 and the air cleaning device 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is that the shape of the container body 2 is different and that the air inlet 4A is located above the container body 2. A water tank portion 20 is provided at a point provided on the side surface of the portion and above the air inlet 4A, and the water tank portion 20 is used as a flower vase while arranging Kenzan in the water tank portion 20. The cleaning device 1A itself can be used as a vase. Each configuration of the air purifying device 1A other than the above is the same as that of the air purifying device 1 shown in the above-mentioned embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals are used. According to this air cleaning device 1A, the same action as the air cleaning device 1 of the above-described embodiment can be produced, and the air cleaning device 1A itself can be used as a vase. The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the gist thereof.
