Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a filtering device for smoke produced by a cooker, and more particularly a filtering device that can clean the smoke produced when the cooker is used so as to prevent the gas from harming the health of the nearby people.
- Large amount of smoke would come into existence when a cooker is used to cook foods, especially a large cooker that is used in restaurants. Such smoke contains soot that is harmful to the health of people. So, the smoke has to be filtered otherwise people are likely to have lung diseases after having breathed in a lot of such smoke.
- Therefore, it is a main object of the present invention to provide a filtering device for the smoke produced by a cooker so that the soot in the smoke can be absorbed by the filtering net and cotton thereof before the smoke is sent out to the atmosphere, thus preventing the soot from harming the health of the nearby people.
- The cooker with the smoke filtering device of the present invention includes a main body, and an inner pot received in the main body. The main body has a rear holding part having a receiving room, which communicates with a vent aperture formed between the inner pot and the main body. The upper cover is pivoted to a support member formed on top of the holding part. The holding part further has a rear opening.
- The filtering device includes a curved net, a fan, a rear net, and a filter cotton. The curved net is fitted to the support member such that the smoke will first pass through the same when travelling from the vent aperture to the receiving room. The fan is disposed in the receiving room of holding part, and faces the rear opening the holding part. The rear net is fixedly disposed in the rear opening. The filter cotton is disposed on the inner side of the rear net.
- Thus, when the cooker is used to cook foods, the fan can make the smoke produced by the cooker pass through the filter cotton, which will absorb the soot in the smoke, preventing the root from being emitted to harm the health of the user or nearby people.
- The present invention will be better understood by reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
- FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a cooker with the smoke filtering device according to the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the main body of the cooker according to the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is cross-sectional view of the cooker with the smoke filtering device according to the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the cooker with the smoke filtering device according to the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is a another perspective view of the cooker with the smoke filtering device according to the present invention.
- Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, a cooker equipped with a smoke filtering device of the present invention includes a
main body 1, anupper cover 2, afan 3, abottom covering part 4 and arear net 5. - The
main body 1 has anadjustment knob 11 on the front side, aheating device 10 on the bottom, and aholding part 12 on the rear side; theholding part 12 has a receiving room therein, acurved net 14 is fixed to the top of theholding part 12 with a support member (not numbered), which has connectingholes 19 at two ends. Aninner pot 13 is removably received in themain body 1 to come into contact with theheating device 10; theinner pot 13 has anupper edge 15 folded outwardly. The outwardly foldededge 15 forms airtight connection with themain body 1 except the rear portion; avent aperture 101 is formed between the rear portion of the foldededge 15 and themain body 1 such that smoke produced by theheating device 10 can travel therethrough into theholding part 12. - The
holding part 12 has an opening at the rear portion, and a connectingtrench 18 at the upper portion of the edge defining the opening. Theholding part 12 further has connectingpoles 16 sticking down therein, which each has a screw hole. - The
upper cover 2 has a connectingprotrusion 21 at the rear end that has two parallel connectingextension portions 22 at two ends. Theupper cover 2 is pivoted to the connectinghole 19 from theextension portion 22 such that the connectingprotrusion 21 can cover thecurved net 14 when theupper cover 2 is pivoted down to cover themain body 1. In addition, aninner covering part 23 is secured to the lower side of theupper cover 2; theinner cover part 23 has anannular protrusion 24 that will abut the inner side of the upper foldededge 15 of theinner pot 13 to form a close connection with the foldededge 15. - The
fan 3 is fitted to themotor 31. Thebottom covering part 4 has a holding part having aholding room 41, and hollow connectingpoles 42, which each has a throughhole 43 on the top. Themotor 31 is secured to theholding room 41. And, thebottom covering part 4 is fixedly connected to theholding part 12 of themain body 1 by means ofscrews 44 that are passed through the throughholes 43 of thehollow poles 42 and screwed into the screw holes of the connectingpoles 16 in theholding part 12. Thus, thefan 3 faces the opening of theholding part 12, and both thebottom covering part 4 and the lower portion of theholding part 12 form airtight connection. In addition, thebottom covering part 14 has connectingtrenches 45 on the rear edge. Therear net 5 is fixedly disposed in the rear opening of theholding part 12; therear net 5 has anupper insertion portion 51, andlower insertion portions 52 inserted into the connectingtrench 18 of theholding part 12, and the connectingtrenches 45 of the lower coveringpart 4 respectively. Furthermore, afilter cotton 53 is disposed on the inner side of therear net 5. - Referring to FIGS. 3 and 5, when the cooker is used to cook foods with the
main body 1 being covered by theupper cover 2, the user can turn on thefan 3 with theadjustment knob 11 such that smoke produced by theheating device 10 can be emitted to the atmosphere through thevent aperture 101, thecurved net 14, thefilter cotton 53, and therear net 5; the soot in the smoke is absorbed by thefilter cotton 53 so as not to be emitted. In addition, when theupper cover 2 is opened, thefan 3 will also cause the gas in theinner pot 13 to travel through thecurved net 14, thefilter cotton 53, and therear net 5, thus reducing the amount of soot that would exit to farm the health of the nearby people. - From the above description, it can be easily understood that the cooker with the smoke filtering device of the present invention has the following desirable features:
- 1. The soot of the smoke produced when the cooker is used can be substantially completely absorbed by the curved net, the filter cotton as well as the rear net, therefore the smoke can't harm the health of the user or the nearby people when it is emitted.
- 2. The adjustment knob on the main body of the cooker allows the user to turn on the fan at any suitable time for the same to make the smoke pass through the filter cotton to be cleaned thereby.
