2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an electrode composed of a metal net, a metal vapor deposition layer, etc. is provided on the surface of a filter medium, and by charging the electrode, dust is trapped by an electrical action in addition to a mechanical action by the filter medium structure. Filters for collecting are known (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 49-110380, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 53-153228, etc.). However, in these filters, the electrode covers the entire surface of the filter medium, and charged dust is collected in the vicinity of the electrode at a high density, which easily causes clogging and shortens the life of the filter medium. It was

On the other hand, in JP-A-63-36852 and JP-A-64-58356, linear or strip electrodes are formed on the surface of the filter medium by using a metal wire, carbon fiber, or by applying a conductive paste. Disclosed is a charge-type filter having a structure. In these charge filters, even if charged dust is concentrated in the vicinity of the electrodes, the electrodes are linear or strip-shaped and there is a space between the electrodes, so that there is a gap between the portion where the dust is concentrated and the portion where the dust is concentrated. In addition, since the flow path of the gas to be treated is secured, there is an advantage that the filter is unlikely to be clogged. In particular, when this filter is viewed through the surface in the vertical direction, in the charging type filter in which the high-voltage electrode and the ground electrode are arranged alternately, charged dust is obliquely connecting the front and back electrodes. Since it is easy to be dispersed and held in the filter medium due to the electrical action, the retention capacity of dust that can be collected before the filter medium is clogged is also increased.

However, in the above-mentioned charge-type filter, the distance between the electrodes is substantially larger than the thickness of the filter medium, and moreover, the wire or strip-shaped metal wire or conductive paste is used for the electrode. If the dust is to be sufficiently charged, the voltage applied between the electrodes must be increased, which may cause spark discharge. As described above, when spark discharge occurs, there is a risk that the filter medium between the electrodes is ignited. Further, when pleating is performed to increase the efficiency of the filter medium, there is a possibility that the conductive paste may fall off at the bent portion of the electrode coated with the conductive paste, resulting in disconnection.

Say the sheet you made. If the fiber length of the conductive fiber 22 is too short, it becomes powdery and discharge is unlikely to occur, and if it is too long, the end face of the fiber exposed on the sheet surface is relatively small and the effect of lowering the voltage can be expected. Since it disappears, it is desirable to be in the range of 0.1 to 50 mm, more preferably 0.3 to 10 mm. Further, in the case of this sheet, the adhesive 23 for adhering the conductive fiber 22 to the conductive film 21 is also preferably a conductive adhesive containing a conductive substance.

A conductive non-woven fabric obtained by adhering a conductive substance to a non-woven fabric in which short fibers are mechanically entangled has a fiber length of 1
To 100 mm, more preferably 3 to 70 mm, a fiber web composed of short fibers is formed into a nonwoven fabric in which fibers are mechanically entangled by a hydroentangling method, a needle punching method, or the like.
It refers to a material obtained by adhering a conductive substance such as metal or conductive resin so that a large number of end faces of conductive fibers are exposed on the surface of the nonwoven fabric. In particular, those using splittable conjugate fibers as the fibers constituting the non-woven fabric are preferable because many fine fiber end faces can be exposed on the surface. Either a wet method or a dry method may be used as the means for forming the fibrous web of the nonwoven fabric, but it is necessary to use the mechanical entanglement method as the means for binding the fibers. This is because, for example, in a non-woven fabric manufactured by a method of adhering fibers by heating and pressing, the fibers lie in the plane direction, and the number of fibers exposed on the surface of the non-woven fabric is significantly reduced. For the same reason, non-woven fabrics made of long fibers such as filaments are also undesirable. As a method of attaching the conductive substance to the non-woven fabric, if the conductive substance is a metal such as copper or nickel, vapor deposition or plating is preferable, and if it is a conductive resin such as polypyrrole or polythiophene, a vapor phase or a liquid phase is preferable. It is preferable to polymerize directly on the surface of the nonwoven fabric. In addition, it is desirable that the conductive substance is attached to the entire surface of the constituent fibers of the nonwoven fabric. If the basis weight of this conductive non-woven fabric is too small, it is difficult to manufacture, and if it is too large, the pressure loss of the filter tends to increase, so it is in the range of 5 to 200 g / m 2 , more preferably 10 to 100 g / m 2 . Good to have. The thickness of the conductive non-woven fabric is 0.02 to 2 for the same reason.
It should be in the range of mm. Further, the amount of the conductive substance to be adhered is preferably in the range of 10 to 40 g / m 2 for the metal and 2 to 10 g / m 2 for the conductive resin.

The electrode on either the gas inflow side surface or the gas outflow side surface of the filter medium 1 may be a high voltage electrode or a ground electrode, but an electrode made of a material in which the end face of the conductive fiber is exposed on the surface. 2 is preferably provided on the gas inflow side. This is because the electrode 2 made of a material in which the end face of the conductive fiber is exposed on the surface substantially acts as a discharge electrode, and dust is charged to the same pole as this discharge electrode, so that it is charged on the upstream side. This is because the dust is attracted to and collected by the electrical action in the vicinity of the electrode on the downstream side. On the other hand, when the discharge electrode is on the downstream side, dust moves from the upstream side to the downstream side along the flow of the air flow, but the charged dust and the downstream pole repel because they are the same pole. In some cases, the collection of dust due to electrical action does not contribute sufficiently.

The electrode used in the present invention is composed of a linear or strip-shaped electrode and is provided on the surface of the filter medium 1 at a predetermined interval. For this reason, even if dust is attracted to the vicinity of the electrode by an electric action, a portion with a small amount of dust collected is generated between the portion where the dust is concentrated and the portion where the dust is concentrated in the surface direction of the filter medium. Since the flow path of the processing gas is secured and dust accumulates in the thickness direction of the filter medium, the filter medium is less likely to be clogged and the service life is extended.

When the and are arranged alternately, an electric field is formed in the filter medium at a long distance in the diagonal direction connecting the front and back electrodes during charging, so that dust is effective inside the filter medium without causing local clogging.

The length and width of the linear or strip electrode and the interval between the electrodes are appropriately set depending on the size and thickness of the filter medium used. However, if the width of the electrode is too narrow, the wire may be broken, and if it is too wide, the pressure loss of the filter and the discharge effect may be reduced.
It is desirable to be in the range of 10 mm, more preferably 1 to 5 mm. Further, if the distance between the electrodes is too wide, a high voltage is required, and if it is too narrow, pressure loss may increase and a short circuit may occur. Therefore, the distance between the electrodes is 2 to 40 mm, more preferably It is desirable to be in the range of 5 to 20 mm.

The electrode may be integrated with the filter medium by adhering it to the surface of the filter medium with an adhesive or joining it by heat bonding, or may be fixed to the surface of the filter medium only when it is used and removable. Good. In the latter case, it can be used as a rechargeable filter repeatedly only by changing the filter medium. When an electrode made of a material in which the end face of the conductive fiber is exposed on the surface is attached to the surface of the filter medium,
It is desirable that the end face of the electrically conductive fiber is exposed on the surface even after the electrode is attached to the filter medium. This is because if the side where the end face of the fiber is exposed is brought to the adhesive surface with the filter medium, the fiber will be pressed down and discharge will be less likely to occur, and it will be difficult to charge the dust at a lower voltage.
