Abstract

PURPOSE:To permit an user to know the timing of the replacement of a filter at a glance when predetermined clogging is caused in the filter, by fixing a colored plate, showing the degree of the contamination of the filter, to a part of the filter or a cover of a ventilating fan. CONSTITUTION:A cover 6 is provided with a filter 7 detachably at the front surface thereof while a colored plate 8, showing the degree of the contamination of the filter, is fixed to a part of the lower surface of the filter 7. According to this constitution, smoke, generated upon cooking, is discharged to the outside of a house through the filter while most of the oily dust is collected by the filter 7. When the degree of clogging of the filter 7 is increased and the color of the filter 7 is changed to the same color as the colored plate 8, fixed to the lower part of the filter 7, it is the timing of the replacement of the filter 7.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Ventilation fans, which exhaust oil smoke generated during cooking in the kitchen and prevent the indoor air from becoming contaminated, are generally very dirty due to the adhesion of oil and dust, and must be cleaned frequently. In order to save this cleaning effort, the conventional ventilation fan of this type has a fan guide section installed on the intake side of a frame 32 inserted into an opening in a kitchen wall 31, as shown in FIG. A cover 33 is provided, and a filter 34 is fitted on the front surface of the cover 33, and all the oil smoke is collected by the filter 34, and the filter 3 is removed without polluting the ventilation fan body.
The purpose was to clean the ventilation fan by replacing only 4.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional air filter, the more the filter 34 collects oil smoke, the more the filter 34 becomes clogged, the air volume decreases, and the noise increases. If the filter is not replaced while the filter is still up, the ventilation fan will no longer fulfill its original role, but since the user does not know when it is time to replace the filter, the guideline is to replace it every three months, regardless of how much oil is being used. This is how the manufacturer expressed it. However, in this expression, although there are large differences in the amount of oil used in each household, on the other hand, it is said that the amount of oil used in each household is very different.
On the other hand, there was the inconvenience that there was a considerable difference even in the same three months compared to Shi, which was still usable.
