Detailed ways

Specific embodiment one

1 and 2, the industrial vacuum cleaner 100 includes an airflow generating device 30, a separating device 32 communicating with the airflow generating device 30, and a dust bucket 34 for collecting dust. The lower part of the dust bucket 34 can be installed on the base 36, and a number of rollers 38 are arranged below the base 36 to enable the vacuum cleaner 100 to be easily moved as required. The upper part of the dust bucket 34 can be provided with a protective cover 40, which can cover the airflow generating device 30 to protect the airflow generating device 30, and can also be provided with a handle 42 to facilitate the movement of the vacuum cleaner 100. The industrial vacuum cleaner 100 of the present application is only a habitual name, and does not limit its use occasions. The industrial vacuum cleaner 100 can be widely used in various occasions such as rooms and workshops to perform cleaning work.

The main switch 44 of the vacuum cleaner 100 can be arranged on the protective cover 40 to facilitate the control of the industrial vacuum cleaner 100 to work. In this embodiment, the industrial vacuum cleaner is provided with a power cord 41 that can be electrically connected to the airflow generating device 30, and an alternating current power source (mains power) is used to power the industrial vacuum cleaner. In one embodiment, a DC power supply can also be used for power supply, such as a battery pack, a car battery, and the like. The protective cover 40 is also provided with a socket 43, which can provide power for other machines. For example, power tools such as grinders and slotting machines can be plugged in, so that when the power tool starts to work, dust can be collected at the same time, which is very convenient.

The upper part of the dust bucket 34 includes an opening 52 covered by a detachable mounting seat 50. Here, the opening 52 is also a dust pouring port. When the dust bucket 34 is full of dust, the opening 52 can be used to clean the dust outward. The mounting base 50 can be fastened to the dust bucket 34 via any conventional means (such as one or more fastening mechanisms 51). The plane where the opening 52 is located can be defined as the opening plane. It can be understood that the dust bucket 34 and the mounting seat 50 can be hermetically mated. The seal fit may be a seal fit achieved through a form fit, that is, a seal is achieved directly through the shape fit of the dust bucket 34 and the mounting seat 50 without a seal. The sealing fit can also be an elastic fit, that is, the dust bucket 34 is provided with a seal between the mounting seats 50, and the seal fit is realized through the deformation of the seal. By providing a sealing element, when the mounting seat 50 is assembled to the dust bucket 34, the sealing performance can be ensured, thereby ensuring the negative pressure value (vacuum degree) and improving the dust collection efficiency.

The air flow generating device 30 is installed on the mounting seat 50. 2 to 4, the mounting seat 50 includes a seat body 54 and a body 56 extending downward along the seat body 54. The seat body 54 has an upper surface 58 facing away from the dust bucket 34 and an upper surface extending downward along the upper surface. The flange 60 and the upper surface 58 are located behind the lower surface. At least one reinforcing rib 61 is provided on the lower surface to increase the strength and stability of the base 54. The flange 60 is designed to be assembled on the outer surface of the upper part of the dust bucket 34, and the body 56 extends into the dust bucket 34. In one embodiment, the body 56 includes an inner wall 64, a bottom wall 66 connected to the inner wall 64, and a receiving cavity 68. The accommodating cavity 68 can be used for accommodating the air flow generating device 30. The mounting base 50 may be made of a suitable conventional material (for example, plastic or metal).

In this embodiment, the dust suction duct 70 is arranged on the mounting seat 50. Specifically, the dust suction duct 70 is disposed on the upper surface 58 of the mounting seat 50, and can be connected with a dust suction hose or nozzle, etc., for sucking dust. Here, dust is only a habitual name, which does not mean that the vacuum cleaner can only collect dust. For the sake of simplicity, the dust in this embodiment is any dirt to be cleaned, such as dust generated when sanding the wall, wood chips generated from wood processing, and so on. Of course, the dust suction duct 70 can also be arranged on the dust bucket 34.

The airflow generating device 30 generates suction airflow required for cleaning operations by forming a suction force at the dust suction duct 70 and a discharge force at the exhaust port. With reference to FIGS. 2, 3 and 5, the air flow generating device 30 includes a motor 72 and a fan 74 driven by the motor 72, wherein the motor 72 is rotatably arranged in the motor housing 76 around the motor axis X. The dust bucket 34 extends along the center line, and the motor axis X is parallel to the center line of the dust bucket 34.

The motor housing 76 is detachably fixed on the mounting base 50 and can be removed together with the mounting base 50. In one embodiment, the motor housing 76 may be connected to the bottom wall 66 of the mounting base 50 by fastening elements (such as screws). Of course, the motor housing 76 can also be formed integrally with the mounting base 50. Here, an integral structure can be understood as a material-locked connection, such as by welding, bonding, or integral molding, such as manufacturing by a casting.

The exhaust port 78 is provided on the motor housing 76 and corresponds to the fan 74. The exhaust port 78 may be in the form of a grille, or an exhaust grill communicating with the exhaust port may be installed at the exhaust port.

The air flow generating device 30 is at least partially contained in the containing cavity 68, that is, at least partially extends into the dust bucket 34. Such a design is conducive to improving the damping effect and reducing noise. In one embodiment, the motor 72 extends at least partially into the dust bucket 34; or the length of the motor 72 in the axis X direction exceeds half of the length in the dust bucket 34, that is, the length of the motor 72 in the axis X direction exceeds More than half is located below the opening plane.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 5, in the present invention, the separation device 32 is provided with at least two stages of separation devices, including a first stage separation device 80 and a second stage separation device 82. In order to avoid the problem of reduced airflow caused by dust blockage, in one embodiment, the first-stage separation device 80 is not designed with a screen filter. Specifically, the primary separation device 80 includes a primary separator. In this embodiment, the dust bucket 34 is used as the primary separator. The dust bucket 34 includes a side wall 84, a receiving cavity 86 and a lower bottom surface 109. The inner surface of the side wall 84 and the upper surface of the lower bottom surface 109 form a receiving cavity 86. The receiving cavity 86 communicates with the dust suction duct 70 to separate dust and at the same time collect dust.

The shape of the outer surface of the side wall 84 can be varied, and is not limited to a complete cylindrical or conical shape. The inner surface of the side wall 84 is at least partially circular. Specifically, the side wall may be at least partially cylindrical or at least partially conical. The dust suction duct 70 brings the dust-laden airflow into the interior of the primary separator in a direction substantially tangential to the side wall 84, so as to establish a swirling air vortex inside the primary separator. The swirling air vortex moves downwards from the top wall in the dust bucket 34 in a spiral motion. The rotating airflow in the primary separator generates centrifugal separation force to separate large-mass dust from small-mass clean air, which is used to remove most of the dust entrained in the inhaled airflow and promote the deposition of dust on the bottom surface of the dust bucket 34 109.

The more common use environment of the vacuum cleaner of the present invention is a decoration engineering environment, which is particularly suitable for use in polishing before wall painting. Through analysis, it can be seen that the proportion of dust produced by grinding that is less than 0.2 microns is about 15%; and the proportion of dust that is greater than 0.3 microns is more than 70%. However, the present invention uses the dust bucket 34 as the primary separator, which is mainly used to separate dust larger than 0.2 microns. Therefore, the separation efficiency of the primary separator will affect the performance of the whole machine.

Generally, the separation efficiency of the entire vacuum cleaner is about 95%, while the separation efficiency of the first-stage separator is above 65%, or even about 80%. However, if the primary separation efficiency is low, the dust entering the downstream separator (such as the secondary separator) will increase greatly, causing the downstream separator (such as the secondary separator) to be too late to separate, and the dust will be discharged; or blockage will occur, causing The machine is not working properly.

The inner diameter of the primary separator will affect the separation efficiency. If the inner diameter is too small, such as less than 200mm, the conventional idea of those skilled in the art is: if the inner diameter of the separator is small, the vortex angular velocity inside the separator will be relatively increased, and the high angular velocity can generate greater centrifugal separation force for better separation. A lot of dust, high separation efficiency. However, this is not the case. The relative increase in the angular velocity of the vortex inside the primary separator is not conducive to the dust deposition in the dust bucket 34; it will even drive the dust deposited in the dust bucket 34 into the downstream separator to make the separation efficiency reduce. At the same time, the capacity of the dust bucket 34 with a small inner diameter is also small, which is not enough to meet engineering requirements.

If the inner diameter is too large, such as greater than 500mm, the vortex angular velocity inside the first-stage separator will relatively decrease, the centrifugal separation force is small, which is not conducive to dust deposition, and the separation efficiency of the first-stage separator is reduced; then the dust entering the downstream separator The increase in the amount will cause the downstream separator (such as the secondary separator) to be discharged without time for separation; or blockage will occur, making the machine unable to work normally and affecting the performance of the whole machine.

In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the dust bucket 34 ranges from 200 mm to 500 mm, that is, the range of the inner diameter of the primary separator is 200 mm to 500 mm; or the range of the inner circumference of the dust bucket is 628 mm to 1570 mm. Here, if the dust bucket is conical, the same inner diameter range refers to the maximum inner diameter range. In an alternative embodiment, the range of the inner diameter of the dust bucket 34 is 250 mm to 400 mm, that is, the range of the inner diameter of the primary separator is 250 mm to 400 mm. The inner diameter of the primary separator can also be 300mm, 350mm, etc.

In order to further improve the separation efficiency, the ratio of the inner diameter of the first-stage separator to the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner is preferably selected. If the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner is very high, the inner diameter of the first-stage separator is too small, the vortex velocity inside the first-stage separator is relatively high, and it is not conducive to the dust deposition in the dust bucket 34; The dust in the dust bucket 34 enters the downstream separator, resulting in low separation efficiency. If the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner is low and the inner diameter of the primary separator is larger, the vortex velocity inside the primary separator will be low, and the dust will not be separated and deposited in the dust bucket 34, and will be Bringing it into the downstream separator is not conducive to improving the separation efficiency of the first-stage separator.

For vacuum cleaners, the rated power P is generally between 800W and 1500W. In order to improve the performance of the whole machine, the ratio of the inner diameter of the first-stage separator to the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner is preferably selected in the range of 0.133~0.625mm/W. In an alternative embodiment, the ratio of the inner diameter of the primary separator to the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner ranges from 0.167 to 0.5 mm/W. In an alternative embodiment, the ratio of the inner diameter of the primary separator to the rated power P of the vacuum cleaner is 0.3 mm/W. In other words, the ratio of the inner diameter of the first-stage separator to the rated power P is preferably selected, so that the separation efficiency is high, and it is not easy to be blocked, so that the dust can be continuously sucked.

The dust bucket 34 can be made of a transparent or translucent material, and the dust collection in the dust bucket can be directly observed through the side wall 84 without opening the mounting seat 50 to determine whether dust needs to be dumped.

Continuing to refer to FIGS. 2 and 5, the secondary separation device 82 is in communication with the primary separation device 80 through the connecting passage 88. The connecting passage 88 has a substantially cylindrical part, and includes an inlet 90 communicating with the receiving cavity 86, an outlet 92 communicating with the secondary separation device 82, and a closed pipe communicating the inlet 90 and the outlet 92. In other words, here, there is no need to provide a sea paw-type easy-clogging filter between the receiving cavity 86 of the dust bucket 34 and the secondary separation device 82. Instead, it is directly connected through the connecting channel 88. This design avoids the formation of blockage between the primary and secondary separation devices 80 and 82, so that the industrial vacuum cleaner can continuously vacuum with high suction. Of course, the inlet 90 can be provided with a grid-type filter that is not easy to be clogged to prevent inhalation of large areas of paper dust and cause clogging.

The bottom wall 66 of the mounting seat 50 is provided with a through hole 94. The connecting passage 88 is connected with the bottom wall 66 of the mounting seat 50, and the outlet 92 of the connecting passage 88 is in communication with the through hole 94. Of course, the connecting passage 88 may also pass through the through hole 94 to communicate with the secondary separation device 82; or the air inlet of the secondary separation device 82 may pass through the through hole 94 to communicate with the outlet 92 of the connecting passage 88.

The connecting channel 88 can be fixedly or detachably connected to the mounting seat 50 and is located in the receiving cavity 86 of the dust bucket 34. In this embodiment, the connecting passage 88 has an axis that coincides with the center line of the dust bucket 34. Of course, the connecting passage 88 may also have an axis deviating from the longitudinal axis of the dust bucket, such as a curved axis, so that the position of the inlet 90 can be changed.

While the cylindrical portion of the connecting passage 88 may have a variable size, for example, the cylindrical portion may include a decreasing cross-sectional area.

It can be understood that the connection channel 88, the through hole 94, and the secondary separation device 82 may be in a sealed fit through a form fit, or may be sealed in fit through a sealing element. Furthermore, the sealing effect of the air passage from the receiving cavity 86 to the secondary separation device 82 is ensured.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 5, one end of the connecting channel 88 communicating with the receiving cavity 86 is provided with a hollow support frame 87 protruding outward into the receiving cavity 86, and a floating ball 89 capable of closing the entrance of the channel is provided in the support frame 87. The floating ball 89 is located upstream of the secondary separation device 82 on the flow path of the airflow, that is, the airflow first passes through the position of the floating ball 89 and then flows to the secondary separation device 82 through the connecting channel 88. By setting the float ball 89, when the vacuum cleaner sucks liquid, when the water level reaches a certain height, that is, the position of the float ball 89, the float ball 89 will move upward as the water level rises. When the water level reaches the warning, the float ball 89 will move up. Blocking the inlet 90 of the connecting channel 88 makes the air flow unable to flow normally. At this time, the user can know that the water is full through the change of the air flow; it can also be set electronically. When the floating ball 89 blocks the connecting channel 88, the air flow can be detected The change starts the early warning whistle to remind the user that the water is full. The water full here not only refers to pure liquid water, but also refers to flowing dust such as muddy water containing dust.

Referring to FIG. 6, in this embodiment, the secondary separation device 82 includes an air inlet portion 96 communicating with the outlet 92, an air outlet portion 98 communicating with the air flow generating device 30, and an air inlet portion 96 communicating with the air outlet portion 98. The secondary separator 99 communicates with the secondary separator 99 and a dust cup 102 for accommodating dust.

6 and 7, the secondary separator 99 is composed of a plurality of conical cyclone separators in parallel, including a separation part 103 and an end cover 104 connected to the separation part, the air inlet part 96 is connected to the separation part 103, and the air outlet The portion 98 communicates with the end cap 104. In this embodiment, the end cap 104 and the separation part 103 are detachably connected, which facilitates cleaning of the internal structure. A sealing element 106 is provided between the end cap 104 and the separation portion 103, and the sealing element 106 is deformed to achieve a sealed connection. This design is convenient for disassembly and maintenance, and can also provide a good sealed space.

The end cover 104 includes an upper cover 108 and a lower cover 110, wherein the upper cover 108 and the lower cover 110 jointly form an air outlet cavity 112 communicating with the air outlet portion 98. A sealing member 106 is provided between the upper cover 108 and the lower cover 110. The sealing member 106 is deformed to achieve a seal between the two, and the two can be connected together by a fastener.

In this embodiment, the air outlet portion 98 includes a pipe communicating with the air outlet cavity 112; of course, the air outlet portion 98 may also include at least two pipes communicating with the air outlet cavity 112, thereby improving dust collection efficiency.

The separation part 103 includes a plurality of separation bodies 118. Each separation body 118 is provided with an inner cavity 120 passing through the body 118. An ash inlet 122 is opened on the side wall of one end of the inner cavity 120, and the other end of the inner cavity 120 is an ash outlet. The ash inlet 122 is in communication with the air inlet portion 96, and the ash outlet 124 is in communication with the dust cup 102, and the dust separated by the secondary separator 99 is discharged to the dust cup 102 through the ash outlet 124. The end cover 104 is provided with an air outlet pipe 114 communicating with the air outlet, and the air outlet pipe 114 is located in the inner cavity 120.

A plurality of air outlet pipes 114 are located on the bottom wall of the lower cover 110. Each air outlet pipe 114 has a substantially cylindrical shape and protrudes downward from the bottom wall. The air outlet pipe 114 guides the clean air discharged from the secondary separator 99 to the air flow generating device 30 through the air outlet cavity 112.

In this embodiment, the separating body 118 has a conical shape. Of course, the separating body is not limited to a conical shape, and it may be a cylinder. A plurality of tapered separation bodies 118 are arranged around the axis Y of the secondary separator 99, and can be arranged angularly or symmetrically around the axis Y of the secondary separator 99. The axis Y of the secondary separator 99 is parallel to the axis X of the motor (as shown in FIG. 5). In the direction parallel to the motor axis X, the secondary separator 99 and the motor 72 at least partially overlap. In one embodiment, in a direction parallel to the motor axis X, about half of the length of the motor 72 overlaps the secondary separator 99. This design makes the structure more compact. In addition, the air outlet portion 98 communicating with the airflow generating device 30 is almost flush with the airflow inlet of the airflow generating device 30, which facilitates the circulation of airflow.

The number of the plurality of separate bodies 118 can be 6-12, can be 8; or 10. If the number is too small, such as less than 6, the number of cones involved in the separation will be insufficient, resulting in insufficient separation and dust clogging; too much, will also lead to an increase in the wind area, reduce the airflow speed, and then reduce the separation efficiency. These are not conducive to improving the separation efficiency.

The diameter of the separating body 118 ranges from 20 to 40 mm, preferably 30 mm. The diameter of the air outlet pipe 114 ranges from 10 to 20 mm, preferably 15 mm. If the diameter is small, the centrifugal radius will be small, the separation capacity will be small, and it will be easy to block; if the diameter is large, the wind speed will decrease when the motor power is not full, resulting in a decrease in angular velocity and also a decrease in centrifugal force. The reduction of centrifugal force will affect the separation efficiency.

The separation part 103 is provided with a barrier 126 which separates the end cap 104 and the separation part 103 and forms a relatively independent space for each separated body. The blocking member 126 abuts against the upper surface 125 of the separating portion 103 and the inner diameter of the flange 127 to define an air passage from the air inlet portion 96 to each separating body 118, that is, the ash inlet cavity 128. Then flow from the ash inlet 128 to each ash inlet 122. The blocking member 126 is fixed on the separation part 103 by the fixing plate 111. The barrier 126 is provided with a hole through which the air outlet tube 114 passes, and the hole and the air outlet tube 114 are closely matched to form a relatively sealed space.

The connecting channel 88 introduces a part of the cleaned air into the ash chamber 128, and then guides it substantially tangentially to the ash inlet 122 of each separation body 118, causing a vortex or swirling flow. The dust separated by each separating body 118 is collected into the dust cup 102 through the dust outlet 124. Thus, the dust cup 102 and the dust bucket 34 are completely separated from each other, so that the air flow in one of them does not affect the air flow in the other. This further improves the dust collection efficiency of the vacuum cleaner.

With reference to FIGS. 2, 3 and 6, at least a part of the secondary separation device 82 is installed on the mounting seat 50. It is supported by the mounting base 50 and can be removed together with the mounting base 50, so that the secondary separation device 82 is convenient for cleaning and maintenance. In the illustrated embodiment, the outer surfaces of at least two of the plurality of separate bodies 118 are provided with connecting lugs 130, which are connected to the bottom of the mounting seat 50 through the connecting lugs 130 by fastening elements (such as screws). 66 on the wall. The bottom wall 66 is also provided with a plurality of tapered cavities 132 matched with the separating body 118 for receiving the other end of the separating body 118 provided with the ash outlet 124. A sealing structure is also provided between the separation body 118 and the tapered cavity 132, which improves the sealing effect of the secondary separation device 82.

Similarly, the air inlet portion 96 is also provided with a connecting lug 134, which is connected to the bottom wall 66 of the mounting seat 50 through the connecting lug 134 by a fastening element (such as a screw).

The secondary separation device 82 is at least partially accommodated in the accommodating cavity 68, and is arranged in an arc shape on the side of the air flow generating device 30, and the motor housing 76 can be at least partially accommodated in the arc-shaped opening, so designed, Makes the structure more compact.

At the same time, referring to FIG. 5, the secondary separation device 82 at least partially extends into the dust bucket 34. Such a design is conducive to improving the damping effect and reducing noise. In one embodiment, the separation part 103 at least partially extends into the dust bucket 34. Of course, the separation parts 103 can all extend into the dust bucket 34, that is, the highest part of the separation part 103 is not set higher than the opening plane, and all are located below the opening plane.

In this embodiment, the separation part 103 includes a plurality of separation bodies 118. If the plurality of separation bodies 118 are directly arranged in the receiving cavity 86 of the dust bucket 34, since the separation bodies 118 are all independent individuals, their multiple cones Forming an irregular outer wall will cause turbulence in the airflow in the flow path dust bucket 34, and affect the separation efficiency of the dust bucket 34 as a primary separator. Therefore, an isolation cover is provided around the outer periphery of the secondary separator 99, which can prevent the plurality of separating bodies 118 from being exposed in the dust bucket 34 to form an uneven surface, and superfluous air flow turbulence. The outer peripheral surface of the isolation cover is at least partially circular, and its function is to guide the flow of airflow. In this embodiment, the isolation cover is the inner wall 64 of the mounting seat 50, and the inner wall 64 has an outer peripheral surface that is at least circular. Of course, the isolation cover can also be the dust cup 102, that is, the dust cup 102 surrounding or surrounding the plurality of separation bodies 118 can also play a role in avoiding the turbulence of the air flow in the flow path dust bucket 34. Or the isolation cover can also be formed by the mounting seat 50 and the dust cup 102 together.

Referring to FIG. 8, the dust cup 102 surrounding or surrounding the plurality of separation bodies 118 includes a peripheral wall 136 and a bottom wall 138. The dust cup 102 is also provided with an ash pouring port 142. The dust cup 102 can be installed on the mounting seat 50 or on the dust bucket 34. Depending on the installation location, the location of the pouring port is also different.

In one embodiment, the dust cup 102 is connected to the dust bucket 34. In this way, the ash pouring port 142 is arranged in the same direction as the ash pouring port 52 of the dust bucket 34 and faces the mounting seat 50. Specifically, a bracket 140 is provided in the dust bucket 34. The bracket 140 can extend upward from the bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34, and the bottom wall 138 of the dust cup 102 is connected with the bracket 140, so that the dust pouring port 142 of the dust cup 102 and the dust pouring port 52 of the dust bucket 34 are facing the same The direction of the seat body 54 of the mounting seat 50. In this way, after the mounting seat 50 is disassembled, the dust in the dust bucket 34 and the dust cup 102 can be disposed of at the same time, eliminating the trouble of discharging the dust separately.

The dust cup 102 can be made of transparent or translucent materials, so that the dust collection in the dust cup 102 can be directly observed to determine whether it is necessary to dump the dust.

Of course, here, the dust cup 102 and the mounting seat 50 are easy to disassemble and have a good sealing effect. In one embodiment, the outer diameter of the peripheral wall 136 of the dust cup 102 close to the upper end of the mounting seat 50 is adapted to the outer diameter of the bottom wall 66 of the mounting seat 50, and a seal (not shown) can surround the bottom wall of the mounting seat 50. 66 is assembled to form a seal between the bottom wall 66 and the peripheral wall 136. In this way, it is easy to disassemble, and the sealing effect is good.

In this embodiment, the dust cup 102 has a conical outer surface, and the cross section becomes smaller and smaller in the direction away from the mounting seat. The shape of the dust cup 102 is not necessarily limited to a conical shape, and may be a cylinder or other regular shapes.

In one embodiment, the connecting channel 88 passes through the dust cup 102 and has a center line that coincides with the axis of the dust cup 102. Of course, the connecting channel 88 can also be directly formed on the dust cup 102. That is, a connecting channel 88 extends upward from the bottom wall 138 of the dust cup 102 to communicate with the receiving cavity 86 and the air inlet portion 96.

The dust cup can have different shapes and installation methods. Referring to FIG. 9, another structure of the dust cup, the dust cup 102 a surrounding or surrounding a plurality of tapered separation bodies 118 has a shape adapted to the separation part 103. The outer circumferential surface of the dust cup 102a is provided with a groove 103a for at least partially accommodating the connecting channel 88a, and the entrance 90a of the connecting channel 88a is arranged closer to the mounting seat 50. The dust cup 102a includes a peripheral wall 136a and a sealing cover 160a movably arranged with the peripheral wall 136a. One end of the peripheral wall 136a close to the mounting base 50 is connected to the body 56 of the mounting base 50 by a fastener (screw); the other end of the peripheral wall 136a is an opening to provide an ash pouring port 142a for dumping dust. The sealing cover 160a is movably connected to the peripheral wall 136a to seal the ash pouring port 142a. In one embodiment, one end of the sealing cover 160a is pivotally connected to the peripheral wall 136a, and a locking mechanism 162a is provided between the other end and the peripheral wall 136a, through which the sealing cover 160a can be fixedly connected to the peripheral wall 136a , In turn, the pouring port 142a can be sealed. It can be understood that a sealing structure may be provided between the sealing cover 160a and the peripheral wall 136a to ensure the sealing effect of the dust cup 102a when the sealing cover 160a is not opened.

It is understandable that the locking mechanism 162a can have many forms. In this embodiment, the locking mechanism 162a includes a clamping portion 164a provided on the peripheral wall 136a, a matching portion 166a provided on the sealing cover 160a, wherein the matching portion 166a is provided with a slot 168a, and one end of the clamping portion 164a is provided There is a pressing end 170a for pressing; the other end is provided with a hook 172a matched with the groove 168a. The hook 172a cooperates with the groove 168a, and the sealing cover 160a can be fixedly connected to the peripheral wall 136a to seal the ash pouring opening 142a; if ash needs to be poured, the mounting seat 50 is removed and the pressing end 170a is pressed to make the hook 172a It is disengaged from the card slot 168a, and the sealing cover 160a is rotated to expose the ash pouring port 142a, which facilitates ash pouring.

Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11, another structure of the dust cup. The dust cup 102b includes a peripheral wall 136b and a sealing cover 160b movably arranged with the peripheral wall 136a. Similarly, one end of the peripheral wall 136b close to the mounting base 50 is connected to the body 56 of the mounting base 50 by a fastener (screw); the other end of the peripheral wall 136b is an opening to provide an ash pouring port 142b for dumping dust. The sealing cover 160b is movably connected to the other end of the peripheral wall 136b to seal the ash pouring port 142b. In this embodiment, unlike the above-mentioned embodiment, the sealing cover 160b can be removed from the peripheral wall 136b, and a locking mechanism 180b is provided between the sealing cover 160b and the peripheral wall 136b. Through the locking mechanism 180b, the sealing cover 160b can be fixedly connected to the peripheral wall 136b, thereby sealing the ash pouring port 142b.

It is understandable that the locking mechanism 180b can have many forms. In this embodiment, the locking mechanism 180b includes a matching groove 182b provided on the peripheral wall 136b, a protrusion 184b provided on the sealing cover 160b, and the protrusion 184b cooperates with each other. The rotation cooperation of the groove 182b realizes the mutual fixing of the sealing cover 160b and the peripheral wall 136b. When it is necessary to pour ash, turn the sealing cover 160b so that the protrusion 184b and the matching groove 182b are uncoated, and the sealing cover 160b is removed to expose the ash pouring opening 142b, so that the ash can be easily poured.

A sealing structure may be provided between the sealing cover 160b and the peripheral wall 136b to ensure the sealing effect of the dust cup 102b when the sealing cover 160b is not opened.

The difference from the foregoing embodiment is that in this embodiment, the connecting channel 88b can be connected to the sealing cover 160b, and this design can facilitate the maintenance of the connecting channel 88b when the sealing cover 160b is removed. Of course, a sealing structure is provided between the connecting channel 88b and the through hole 94 (not shown) on the bottom wall 66 to ensure the sealing effect.

In the above embodiment, the connecting channels 88, 88a, 88b and the dust cup 102, 102a, 102b have different installation positions and installation methods, but preferably, the entrance of the connecting channels 88, 88a, 88b is not lower than the dust cup 102 , 102a, 102b bottom surface. Here, the lower surface of the dust cup 102, 102a, 102b means that the dust cup 102, 102a, 102b faces the lower bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34.

If necessary, a three-stage separator can be installed. Here, it may be referred to as the final filter assembly 144, which is used to filter the exhaust air stream containing any pollutants before it is discharged into the atmosphere. Please continue to refer to FIG. 5, the final stage filter assembly 144 includes a filter element 146 located downstream of the secondary separation device 82 and upstream of the air flow generating device 30. The last-stage filter assembly 144 concentrates the cleaner air flow from the secondary separation device 82 and guides the cleaner air through the filter element 146 to filter any residual fine dust remaining in the discharged airflow, and The clean air flow merges into the air inlet (not shown) of the air flow generating device 30.

In this embodiment, continuing to refer to FIG. 2, the filter element 146 is housed in the filter housing 148, and the filter housing 148 and the motor housing 76 are integrally formed. The filter housing 148 is matched with a detachable cover 150, and the filter element 146 can be supported by the cover 150 and can be removed together with it. The filter element 146 is easy to clean and maintain. Of course, it can also be provided with a movably enclosed cover with the filter housing 148, such as hinged connection, to provide an inlet for cleaning the filter element 146.

The filter element 146 may be one-stage or multi-stage. It may include at least one foam filter. This foam filter can be a composite component of a coarse foam layer and a fine foam layer. If necessary, the two foam layers can be fixed to each other by conventional means. Alternatively or additionally, a pleated filter (HAPA) may be used.

During operation, referring to FIG. 5, the dust-entrained air enters the primary separation device 80 through the dust suction duct 70 arranged in a tangential direction relative to the side wall of the dust bucket 34. The air then establishes a vortex around the receiving cavity 86, in which many particles and liquids entrained in the air travel along the inner surface of the side wall 84 by centrifugal force and are separated from the rotating airflow by centrifugal force. These particles are concentrated on the bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34. However, the relatively light fine dust withstands less centrifugal force. Therefore, the air flow circulating near the bottom of the dust bucket 34 contains fine dust. Therefore, a blocking member extending to the bottom of the dust bucket 34 may be provided in the dust bucket 34, and the circulating airflow hits the blocking member and prevents further rotation, thereby also causing most of the fine dust entrained in the air to fall.

Part of the cleaned air travels through the inlet 90 of the connecting channel 88 and enters the plurality of separation bodies 118 through the ash inlet chamber 128. There, the air swirls or spirally descends along the inner cavities 120 of the several separating bodies 118 to separate the remaining fine dust. At this time, the double cleaned air flows upward through the air outlet pipe 114 and enters the air outlet cavity 112. The fine dust separated in the secondary separator accumulates in the dust cup 102, 102a, 102b. The clean air flows out from each air outlet pipe 114 and recombines to the air outlet cavity 112, enters the final stage filter assembly 144 through the air outlet portion 98, passes through the filter assembly 144 and is in fluid communication with the inlet of the air flow generating device 30. The cleaned air is discharged into the atmosphere through the exhaust port on the electric housing 76.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 5, the dust bucket 34 and the dust cup 102 are configured to be relatively sealed structures independently of each other. In this embodiment, in order to empty the dust, the mounting seat 50 is removed from the dust bucket 34, and the dust bucket 34 and the dust cup 102 can be tilted at the same time to empty the dirt therein. Or, remove the mounting seat 50 from the dust bucket 34, pour the dirt in the dust cups 102a, 102b into the dust bucket 34, and then dump the dust bucket 34 to empty the dirt. Or, remove the mounting seat 50 from the dust bucket 34, and dump the dirt in the dust bucket 34 and the dust cups 102a, 102b, respectively.

The primary separation device 80 is mainly used to separate dust larger than 0.2 microns; the secondary separation device 82 is mainly used to separate dust smaller than or equal to 0.2 microns. Most of the debris or dust will be separated in the primary separation device 80 and collected in the dust bucket 34. Therefore, the effective volume required by the dust bucket 34 is relatively large, and the effective volume required by the dust cups 102, 102a, and 102b is relatively small. In order to make the dust bucket 34 and the dust cup 102 almost full at the same time, that is, the dust bucket 34 and the dust cup 102, 102a, 102b are emptied at the same frequency, thereby reducing the number of times of ash dumping of the industrial vacuum cleaner. In one embodiment, the ratio of the effective volume of the dust bucket 34 to the effective volume of the dust cup 102 is in the range of 6-12. In an alternative embodiment, the ratio of the effective volume of the dust bucket 34 to the effective volume of the dust cup 102 ranges from 7 to 11. In an alternative embodiment, the ratio of the effective volume of the dust bucket 34 to the effective volume of the dust cup 102 can also be 8; 9, or 10, etc.

Here, the effective volume designates the maximum ash volume of the dust bucket 34 or the dust cup 102 under the normal working state of the vacuum cleaner. And if the vacuum cleaner is blocked due to a large amount of dust or stops working because it is too late to filter and spray dust, it is an abnormal working state.

And because of the different occasions, the ash production is also different. For example, the ash output of the wall polished by a grinder is about 10L to 25L in a day. Therefore, the effective volume of the dust bucket 34 can be set to be greater than or equal to 10L and less than or equal to 30L, specifically, it can be 20L or 25L, and so on. The effective volume of the dust cup 102 can be set to be greater than or equal to 1L and less than or equal to 4L. For example, the effective volume of the dust cup 102 is 1.5L, such as 2L, and so on. In this way, for users, they only need to clean the vacuum cleaner once a day after work, which is very convenient to use.

The dust cup 102 is located in the receiving cavity 86 of the dust bucket 34, but in order to increase the effective volume of the dust bucket, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower bottom surface 101 of the dust cup 102 is higher than the bottom bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34. Such a design can increase the effective volume of the dust bucket 34 and reduce the overall height of the industrial vacuum cleaner. Here, for the convenience of description, the lower bottom surface 101 of the dust cup 102 can be idealized as the bottom wall 138 as the plane where the thickness is extremely small and the bottom wall 138 is located. Of course, it can also be defined that the inner surface of the bottom wall 138 of the dust cup 102 for receiving dust is the lower bottom surface. In other structures of the dust cup, the sealing cover 160a, 160b can also be idealized as having an extremely small thickness. The plane of the sealing cover 160a, 160b is the bottom surface of the dust cup 102a, 102b or the sealing cover 160a, 160b. The inner surface is the lower bottom surface of the dust cup 102a, 102b.

Without affecting the overall height of the industrial vacuum cleaner and the effective volume of the dust cup 102, the distance L between the lower bottom surface 101 of the dust cup 102 and the lower bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34 is about 50 mm to 450 mm. Of course, the distance L between the lower bottom surface 101 of the dust cup 102 and the lower bottom surface 109 of the dust bucket 34 may also be 100 mm to 400 mm. Or the distance L may be 150 mm to 350 mm.

Specific embodiment two

As shown in FIGS. 12 to 13, the second embodiment of the present invention discloses an industrial vacuum cleaner 200, which includes an airflow generating device 230, a separating device 232 connected with the airflow generating device 230, and a dust bucket 234 for collecting dust. The lower part of the dust bucket 234 can be installed on the base 236, and a number of rollers 238 are arranged below the base 236 to enable the vacuum cleaner 200 to be easily moved as required. The upper part of the dust bucket 234 can be provided with a protective cover 240, which can cover the airflow generating device 230 to protect the airflow generating device 230, and can also be provided with a handle 242 to facilitate the movement of the vacuum cleaner 200.

The separation device 232 includes a multi-stage separation device, including a first-stage separation device 280, a second-stage separation device 282, and a third-stage separation device 244. Among them, the primary separation device 280 is the same as the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

In addition, as in the first embodiment, the secondary separation device 282 communicates with the primary separation device 280 through the connection channel 288. 16, the connecting passage 288 is generally cylindrical, and includes an inlet 290 communicating with the receiving cavity 286, an outlet 292 communicating with the secondary separation device 282, and a closed pipe communicating the inlet 290 and the outlet 292. Here, there is no need to install a sea paw-type easy-clogging filter between the receiving cavity 286 of the dust bucket 234 and the secondary separation device 282. Of course, the inlet 290 can be provided with a grid-type filter that is not easily clogged to prevent inhalation of large areas of paper dust.

Referring to FIGS. 13 to 15, the secondary separation device 282 is contained in the receiving cavity 286 of the dust bucket 234. The secondary separation device 282 includes a secondary separator 299 communicating with the outlet 292 and a dust cup 302 for collecting dust. In this embodiment, the secondary separator 299 is also composed of a plurality of conical cyclone separators in parallel, including a separation part 303 and an air outlet part 304 communicating with the separation part 303.

The separation part 303 includes a separation seat 305 connected to the mounting seat 250 and a plurality of separation bodies 318 arranged on the separation seat 305. The mounting seat 250 is detachably installed on the dust bucket 234 for sealing the dust bucket 234. Each separating body 318 is provided with an inner cavity 320 penetrating the body 318. The side wall of one end of the inner cavity 320 is provided with an ash inlet 322, and the other end of the inner cavity 320 is an ash outlet 324, wherein the ash inlet 322 and the outlet 292 is connected, the ash outlet 324 is in communication with the dust cup 302, and the dust separated by the secondary separator 299 is discharged to the dust cup 302 through the ash outlet 324.

The air outlet 304 includes a plurality of air outlet pipes 314. In this embodiment, the plurality of air outlet pipes 114 are arranged on the mounting seat 250. The number of the air outlet pipes 314 corresponds to the separation body 318, and each air outlet pipe 314 is located in a corresponding inner cavity 320.

A seal 307 is provided between the mounting seat 250 and the separation seat 305 to ensure the sealing effect of the secondary separation device 282. The sealing member 307 is also provided with a mounting hole through which the air outlet pipe 314 passes.

In this embodiment, the separating body 118 has a conical shape. Of course, the separating body is not limited to a conical shape, and it may be a cylinder. A plurality of tapered separation bodies 118 are uniformly arranged around the axis Y of the secondary separator 299 (coincident with the axis of the separation seat 305). The axis Y of the secondary separator 299 coincides with the center line of the connecting channel 288 and also coincides with the center line of the dust bucket 234. That is to say, the axis of the secondary separation device coincides with the axis of the primary separation device or the centerline of the primary separator. This design is conducive to the circulation of airflow.

The number of the plurality of separate bodies 318 can be 6-12, can be 8; or 10. If the number is too small, such as less than 6, the number of cones involved in the separation will be insufficient, resulting in insufficient separation and dust clogging; too much, will also lead to an increase in the wind area, reduce the airflow speed, and then reduce the separation efficiency. These are not conducive to improving the separation efficiency.

The diameter of the separating body 318 ranges from 20 to 40 mm, preferably 30 mm. The diameter of the air outlet pipe 314 ranges from 10 to 20 mm, preferably 15 mm. If the diameter is small, the centrifugal radius will be small, the separation capacity will be small, and it will be easy to block; if the diameter is large, the wind speed will decrease when the motor power is not full, resulting in a decrease in angular velocity and also a decrease in centrifugal force. The reduction of centrifugal force will affect the separation efficiency.

The connecting channel 288 introduces a part of the cleaned air into the secondary separator 299, and then guides it substantially tangentially to the ash inlet 322 of each separation body 318, causing a vortex-type swirling flow or a swirling flow. The dust separated by each separating body 318 is collected into the dust cup 302 through the dust outlet 324. Therefore, the dust cup 302 and the dust bucket 234 are completely separated from each other, so that the air flow in one of them will not affect the air flow in the other, which further improves the dust collection efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. Here, the structure and installation method of the dust cup 302, and the range of the ratio of the effective volume of the dust bucket 234 to the effective volume of the dust cup 302 are the same as those of the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

An isolation cover is also provided around the outer periphery of the secondary separator 299. In this embodiment, the isolation cover is a dust cup 302. The outer peripheral surface of the dust cup 302 is at least partially circular, which can guide the flow of airflow. Referring to FIGS. 15 and 16, the dust cup 302 is connected to the mounting base 250, and the dust cup 302 is disposed around the outer periphery of the separation body 118 so that the separation body 118 is contained in the dust cup 302. A relatively smooth outer peripheral surface is formed on the outer circumference of the separating body 118 to avoid the separation of the separating body 118 from being exposed in the dust bucket 234, causing a turbulent airflow when the airflow passes through the cone, which affects the separation efficiency of the first-stage separator 280.

In this embodiment, the structure of the dust cup 302 is similar to that of the dust cup 102b, and includes a peripheral wall 336 and a sealing cover 360 movably arranged with the peripheral wall 336. Similarly, one end of the peripheral wall 336 close to the mounting base 250 is connected to the mounting base 250 by a fastener (such as a screw or a buckle); the other end of the peripheral wall 336 is an opening provided to provide an opening for dumping dust. The sealing cover 360 is movably connected to the other end of the peripheral wall 336 to seal the ash pouring port. The sealing cover 360 can be removed from the peripheral wall 336, and a locking mechanism (not shown) is provided between the sealing cover 360 and the peripheral wall 336. Through the locking mechanism, the sealing cover 360 can be fixedly connected to the peripheral wall 336 to seal the dust pouring port. The peripheral wall 336 has an at least partially circular outer peripheral surface for guiding the flow of airflow.

When it is necessary to pour ash, the mounting seat 250 can be disassembled, and the sealing cover 360 can be removed from the peripheral wall 336 to expose the ash pour port, thereby facilitating the pour ash. At the same time, the dust cup 302 can also be removed from the mounting base 250 to further clean the secondary separator 299.

Referring to FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, the industrial vacuum cleaner 200 is also provided with a three-stage separation device 244. Here, the three-stage separation device 244 is a Hypa filter, and the airflow passing through the secondary separation device 282 may be filtered again by the Hypa filter and flow to the airflow generating device 230. The terminal separating device 244 arranged after the first and second separating devices 280 and 282 uses a sea Pa filter.

The exhaust port 278 is provided on the motor housing 276 and corresponds to the fan 274. In this embodiment, there are multiple exhaust ports 278, which are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the motor housing 276. The airflow passing through the exhaust port 278 is not directly discharged, but is guided to form a dust blowing airflow to the dust blowing pipe 332, and then directly discharged through the dust blowing pipe 332 or externally connected with a dust blowing hose for dust blowing operation.

Specifically, referring to FIG. 17, an air cavity 334 communicating with the exhaust port 278 is provided on the fixing seat 330, and the air cavity 334 is communicated with the inlet 338 of the dust blowing pipe 332.

When the industrial vacuum cleaner 200 is working, please refer to Fig. 13, Fig. 16, and Fig. 17, wherein the dotted line in Fig. 16 shows the flow direction of the suction airflow. The dust-entrained air enters the primary separation device 280 through the dust suction duct 270 arranged tangentially to the side wall of the dust bucket 234. The air then establishes a vortex around the receiving cavity 286, in which many particles and liquids entrained in the air travel along the inner surface of the side wall 284 by centrifugal force, and are separated from the rotating airflow by gravity. These particles are concentrated on the bottom surface 309 of the dust bucket 234. Part of the cleaned air enters the plurality of separation bodies 318 through the inlet 290 of the connecting channel 288. There, the air swirls or spirally descends along the inner cavity 320 of the plurality of separation bodies 318 to separate the remaining fine dust. At this time, the double-cleaned air flows upward through the air outlet pipe 314 and enters the Hypa filter 244. The fine dust separated in the secondary separator 282 accumulates in the dust cup 302. The cleaned air flows out of the air outlet pipes 314 and enters the HyPa filter 244, passes through the HyPa filter 244, and enters the inlet of the air flow generator 230 through the through hole (not labeled) on the fixing seat 330. The inlet is arranged in the X direction of the motor axis, and the cleaned air entering from the inlet is then discharged from the motor housing 276 through the exhaust port 278 by the fan 274. The cleaned air discharged from the exhaust port 278 flows to the dust blowing pipe 332 through the air cavity 334 on the fixed seat 330 or is connected to an external dust blowing hose for dust blowing operation.

It can be seen from the above description that, in this embodiment, the center line of the first-stage separator 280 (dust bucket 234 or the first-stage separation device), the axis Y of the second-stage separator 299 (the second-stage separation device), and the third-stage separation device 244 The center line of X and the axis X of the motor coincide with each other, and the arrangement is such that the suction airflow generated by the airflow generating device 230 circulates roughly in a straight line, avoiding energy loss.

The guide portion 394 is arranged in a fan shape and is provided with an outlet grill 396. A muffler (not shown) can also be provided at the outlet grill 396. The cooling air passing through the inside of the motor housing 276 can flow through the guide portion 394, and is discharged from the gap between the fixing seat 250 and the protective cover 240, and then out of the industrial vacuum cleaner after passing through the muffler at the style grill 396.

For details, refer to Figure 18, where the dotted line shows the direction of the cooling air flow. The cooling fan 390 is driven by the motor 272 to generate a cooling airflow. The airflow flows in from the gap between the mounting base 250 and the protective cover 240. The flow path enters the muffler at the grille 392 and then enters the motor housing 276 through the cooling air inlet. Inside, the flow path motor 272 cools the motor 272, and then flows through the cooling air outlet on the outside of the fan 390 to the guide portion 394, and then flows out through the gap between the fixing seat 250 and the protective cover 240, and flows through the outlet grille 396. After the muffler, discharge the industrial vacuum cleaner. It can be seen from Fig. 18 that the flow direction of the cooling airflow is not a straight line, but a curve with multiple bends.
