Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for separating particles from a fluid.
  • the device is suitable for removing even the smallest particles from air and is suitable for use in a vacuum cleaner.
  • Cyclones can be mentioned as an example of devices in which particles are separated from air without being deposited on a filter element. Cyclones have an essentially cylindrical housing that tapers in the lower area. The air laden with particles is supplied tangentially at a high speed in the upper area of the housing. With that Air-dust mixture flowing in at very high speed induces a vortex flow in the interior of the cyclone, by means of which heavier dust particles are pressed against the housing wall and braked there. Due to gravity, they sink down into the funnel-shaped area of the housing. The separated particles are collected there and removed from the housing from time to time. Fine particles are difficult to separate with a cyclone because the centrifugal force acting on them is not large enough.
  • the fine particles are therefore dragged along by the exiting fluid through the exit pipe arranged in the upper region of the cyclone.
  • two cyclones are often connected in series. Even in this case, however, it is hardly possible to reliably separate particles with a particle size of less than 5 ⁇ m.
  • a dust cleaner which is based on the principle of a cyclone, is described, for example, in WO-A-98/10691.
  • a double cyclone is used to separate the dust from the air, in which a cyclone for separating small particles is arranged concentrically within a cyclone for separating coarse particles.
  • the double cyclone is relatively space-saving and is still suitable for use in a vacuum cleaner. Since no filter element is used in this vacuum cleaner, which is clogged by particles, the suction power of this vacuum cleaner remains practically constant over time. However, it is disadvantageous that the vacuum cleaner is still relatively large despite the use of the concentrically arranged cyclones.
  • the funnel-shaped collecting area for the separated particles In order to prevent the particles which have collected in the funnel-shaped region from being whirled up again by the vortex flow inside the housing and from reaching the outside through the air outlet, the funnel-shaped collecting area for the separated particles must be made relatively long. However, the entrainment of particles with the exhaust air cannot be completely avoided. Even the separation of very fine particles is not completely successful for the reasons described above. Therefore, downstream fleece filters must also be used, which are blocked by the deposited particles and must therefore be replaced from time to time.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for separating particles from a fluid, which has a constantly high separation effect even for very small particles with a particle size of up to less than 1 ⁇ m.
  • the device should also be built as small as possible and be maintenance-free over a long period of time.
  • the particles should be easy to remove and the device should be suitable for use in a vacuum cleaner.
  • the invention also relates to a vacuum cleaner which comprises the device according to the invention for separating particles from a fluid.
  • the invention thus relates to a device for separating particles from a fluid, in which the separation takes place with the aid of a rotatable filter element.
  • a separation principle and devices which use this principle have already been described by the applicant in EP 0 748 645 A2.
  • the invention builds on that described in the European patent application.
  • the device according to the invention is suitable both for separating solid particles from air and from a liquid.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly suitable for separating particles from air. Even the smallest particles down to a particle size of less than 1 ⁇ m can be reliably separated.
  • the device according to the invention comprises an essentially rotationally symmetrical filter element which is rotatably mounted and the outer circumferential surface of which has a plurality of Has through openings.
  • the filtration principle of such a filter element is based on the fact that particles which reach the area of the rotating filter element are either hit by the latter and knocked outwards, or the particles are generated by those on the filter element Turbulence pushed to the outside. Practically no particles are deposited on the filter element, so that the filter element does not have to be cleaned and the device can be operated without interruption.
  • the fluid, freed from the particles, passes through the through openings in the outer peripheral surface into the interior of the filter element and from there into an outlet opening through which the cleaned fluid exits the device.
  • the separated particles, on the other hand, sink down outside the filter element, are stored in the device and are removed from it from time to time.
  • the device according to the invention now has a further essentially rotationally symmetrical outer filter element.
  • This is rotatably mounted concentrically to the first, inner filter element and at a distance from it.
  • the outer circumferential surface of the outer filter element also has a large number of through openings.
  • the arrangement according to the invention of two filter elements which are mounted so as to be concentrically rotatable relative to one another allows a multitude of possible variations of the device according to the invention. For example, it is possible to vary the outer circumferential surfaces of the two filter elements so that the flow conditions within the device can be set in a targeted manner.
  • the separation performance can be compared the device known from EP '645 can be significantly improved again.
  • the achievable advantages are to be explained in more detail on the basis of the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments.
  • the through openings in the outer peripheral surfaces of the inner and / or outer filter element are designed as longitudinal slots running essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the filter element. This can be achieved, for example, by arranging longitudinal rods running essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the filter element along the outer peripheral surface of the inner and / or outer filter element. If both the inner and the outer filter element are designed in this way, a fan is expediently arranged in the area above the two filter elements. This fan serves to convey the fluid within the device with a sufficient circulation speed.
  • the outer circumferential surface of the inner filter element by guide vanes which run essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the filter element and which extend from the outer circumference into the interior of the filter element.
  • the guide vanes are preferably shaped such that they convey fluid into the interior of the filter element when the filter element rotates.
  • the guide vanes can have a crescent-shaped cross section.
  • a fan in the device can be dispensed with. This simplifies the construction of the device according to the invention and allows a compact design.
  • the inner and outer filter elements can differ not only in their outer peripheral surfaces, but also in their height.
  • the outer filter element can have a greater axial height than the inner filter element.
  • a rotation element with a closed outer peripheral surface can be arranged adjacent to the inner filter element. Both elements expediently have the same diameter and are arranged on the same axis of rotation. Both elements are preferably formed in one piece.
  • the flow element of the fluid in the space between the two filter elements can be additionally influenced by the rotary element with a closed outer peripheral surface. The rotation of the rotating element ensures that particles which are located in the space between the two filter elements are subjected to greater turbulence and are accordingly transported outwards more quickly. This can improve and accelerate the separation of particles and fluid.
  • a particularly compact design of the device according to the invention is possible if the inner and outer filter elements are driven by the same drive device.
  • the inner filter element is preferably closed on its lower end face.
  • This closure can be designed so that it also has a positive effect on the flow in the area around the inner filter element.

  • the inlet opening can be arranged such that the fluid laden with particles is fed into a space radially outside the outer filter element.
  • two rotating filter elements prevent particles from entering the interior of the inner filter element and thus not being separated from the fluid.
  • the inlet opening in such a way that the fluid laden with particles is supplied to the space between the inner and outer filter element.
  • this one filter element is basically sufficient to cleanly separate particles and fluid.
  • the outer filter element ensures that particles that have been transported outwards by both filter elements cannot return to the area of the inner filter element.
  • a particularly compact device can be obtained if the supply line for the particle-laden fluid and the outer filter element have essentially the same cross section and are arranged adjacent to one another.
  • an inner filter element with an end face closed at the bottom is used, that is to say the fluid laden with particles is accordingly fed into the space between the inner and outer filter elements.
  • the supply of fluid laden with particles is expediently carried out from below the filter elements, but this is not mandatory.
  • the device particularly preferably has a collecting chamber for the separated particles.
  • the collecting chamber can be arranged so that it surrounds the inner and outer filter element.
  • a housing is used around the inner and outer filter element, it is possible to choose the housing shape in such a way that the separated particles are fed to the at least one particle outlet opening in a targeted manner.
  • the housing can be provided with an asymmetrical cross section.
  • the at least one particle outlet opening is then as far as possible from the outer filter element.
  • the cross section of the housing can be oval or helical, for example.
  • the device can, for example, have an opening, possibly provided with a flap. It is preferred to arrange a removable drawer in the collecting chamber.
  • the collecting bag of the device according to the invention in contrast to conventional vacuum cleaner bags, does not have to be flowed through by the fluid to be cleaned, the collecting bag need not have increased tear strength or good filter properties.
  • a simple paper or plastic bag is sufficient to hold the particles. In this way, costs can be saved compared to conventional vacuum cleaner bags.
  • the collecting bag can furthermore have a self-closing opening for the particle inlet. This can consist, for example, of a movable flap, as is known from conventional vacuum cleaner bags.
