Description

Technical Field



[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technology field of electrostatic dust removal, and in particular to a dust collection mechanism and a dust removal device.

Background Art



[0002] Existing traditional purifiers with electrostatic dust removal technology typically utilize metal pipes to string together metal plates. Simultaneously, positioning sleeves are mounted on the metal pipes. The metal pipes serve as conductive connections. The thickness of the metal sleeves is equal to the spacing between the metal plates, which plays a role in positioning and preventing the bending and deformation of the metal plates.

[0003] Existing traditional purifiers with electrostatic dust removal technology is mostly used in kitchen exhaust equipment. However, the sizes of range hoods are typically fixed, and usually available in only a few standard sizes like large, medium, and small. Additionally, the assembly of the purifier is inconvenient, requiring hundreds or even thousands of sleeves and dozens of metal pipes for a complete large-sized component, which is very time-consuming.

[0004] Moreover, the spacing between metal plates depends on the size of the metal sleeves; the smaller the spacing is, the more metal sleeves are needed, thus making the assembly more complex. The minimum size of the metal sleeves is also constrained by the processing precision and the mounting feasibility. For example, processing and mounting metal sleeves with a length of 2mm can be inconvenient, thus limiting the minimum spacing between metal plates and consequently restricting purification efficiency. Generally, smaller spacing results in higher purification efficiency.

[0005] Traditional purifiers with electrostatic dust removal technology not only have complex assembly processes and limited purification efficiency but also exhibit poor resistance to dirt, water, and moisture.

Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure according to specific situations.

[0026] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of what can be achieved by those of ordinary skill in the art. When the combination of technical solutions contradicts each other or cannot be realized, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the present disclosure.

[0027] According to the first aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a dust collection mechanism is provided. The structure and working principle of the dust collection mechanism will be described in detail below in connection with the drawings.

[0028] The dust collection mechanism provided according to the embodiments of the present disclosure includes a first frame 110, a second frame 120, a first interval fixed component 130, a second interval fixed component, and multiple conductive plates. In the embodiment, the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 are arranged opposite each other, and the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 have the same extending direction. The first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component are provided in the first frame 110 and the second frame 120, respectively. The above-mentioned multiple conductive plates are configured for dust collection, and the above-mentioned multiple conductive plates are provided sequentially at intervals along the extending direction. Each conductive plate is respectively connected to the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component.

[0029] In the embodiment, each first interval fixed component 130 and second interval fixed component includes multiple concave portions 132 arranged sequentially along the extending direction. Two sides of each conductive plate, facing the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 respectively, are inserted into a concave portion 132 of the first interval fixed component 130 and inserted into a concave portion 132 of the second interval fixed component, respectively.

[0030] In this way, in the dust collection mechanism according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, by the concave portions 132 included on a first interval fixed component 130 and a second interval fixed component, each side of each conductive plate, facing the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 respectively, can be inserted into a concave portion 132 of the first interval fixed component 130 and inserted into a concave portion 132 of the second interval fixed component, respectively. By utilizing the plug-in cooperation, it is possible to conveniently arrange the above multiple conductive plates one by one between the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 along the aforementioned extending direction. Thus, according to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a placement-type mounting method is formed, allowing the assembly of the dust collection mechanism without the need for additional fasteners such as screw and bent fixing structures, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty of the dust collection mechanism.

[0031] In the embodiment, the processing of concave portions 132 can be achieved through integral molding (such as integral molding through casting) or by removing material (for example, through cutting or machining processes). Consequently, the spacing between adjacent concave portions 132 can be designed to be smaller compared to the metal sleeves in the existing technology. This facilitates reducing the spacing between adjacent conductive plates, thus improving the purification efficiency of the dust collection mechanism.

[0032] In the embodiment, the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 are essentially located on the outside of the first interval fixed component 130 and the outside of the second interval fixed component, respectively. They each shield the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component, and simultaneously shield both sides of each conductive plate. This is conducive to improving the dirt resistance, water resistance, and moisture resistance of the dust collection mechanism.

[0033] In the embodiment, the conductive plate can be, for example, in the form of a sheet made of conductive material. In the embodiment, the whole conductive plate extends in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the first frame 110. Here, the extending direction of the conductive plate is defined as the second direction, and the extending direction of the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 is defined as the first direction. As mentioned earlier, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0034] For instance, the conductive plate can be formed from metal, meaning that the conductive plate can be a metal sheet.

[0035] For instance, in the embodiment, the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 can be formed from insulating materials, such as insulating plastic. The insulating plastic can be extruded into a strip-like structure. When assembling the dust collection mechanism, based on the dimensions of the related dust collection mechanism, a section of the strip-like structure is cut to a corresponding length to serve as the first frame 110 and the second frame 120. This facilitates the flexible assembly of the dust collection mechanism, making it easy to obtain dust collection mechanisms of various sizes.

[0036] In the embodiment, the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component can be either fixedly connected to the first frame 110 and the second frame 120, respectively, or detachably arranged on the first frame 110 and the second frame 120. This will be specifically explained in the subsequent description.

[0037] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first frame 110 can comprise a first frame body and a first interlocking part arranged on the first frame body. The first interval fixed component 130 can comprise a second interlocking part, and the second interlocking part and the first interlocking part are connected to each other in an insertion manner to form a detachable connection. Similarly, the second frame 120 can comprise a second frame body and a third interlocking part arranged on the second frame body. The first interval fixed component 130 can comprise a fourth interlocking part, and the third interlocking part and the fourth interlocking part are connected to each other in an insertion manner to form a detachable connection.

[0038] In the embodiment, the first interval fixed component 130 is inserted into the first frame 110, and the second interval fixed component is inserted into the second frame 120. With this detachable connection, it is convenient to maintain the dust collection mechanism. It also facilitates the adaptability to adjust the length of the first interval fixed component 130 in the first direction and the length of the second interval fixed component in the first direction based on the design dimensions of the dust collection mechanism. This makes the dimensions of the dust collection mechanism more flexible.

[0039] In the embodiment, as an example, the first interlocking part can be a recessed structure, and the second interlocking part is inserted into the first interlocking part. In other examples, the second interlocking part can be a recessed structure, and the first interlocking part can be inserted into the second interlocking part. Similarly, the relationship between the third interlocking part and the fourth interlocking part can be the same, and it will not be reiterated here.

[0040] In the embodiment, the first interlocking part and the third interlocking part can both be recessed structures, and their structures can be the same. The first interlocking part is illustrated here as an example. In the embodiment, the first interlocking part can include a deep groove 111, for example, the first interlocking part can be a strip structure protruding from the first frame body. The strip structure can extend along the first direction and be provided with a groove portion extending along the first direction, i.e., the aforementioned deep groove 111. Using the inserted groove structure enables the mounting of the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component more conveniently, without the need for additional fasteners such as screws for fixation.

[0041] In the embodiment, the second interlocking part and the fourth interlocking part can have the same structure. For example, the second interlocking part can extend along the first direction, thus allowing it to be inserted into the first interlocking part.

[0042] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component each comprise multiple interval fixed elements 131 arranged sequentially along the extending direction; and each interval fixed element 131 is provided with multiple concave portions 132 arranged successively along the extending direction.

[0043] Thus, according to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, both the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component can be composed of multiple interval fixed elements 131 included in each. Therefore, by adjusting the number of interval fixed elements 131, it is possible to adjust the length of the first interval fixed component 130 in the first direction and the length of the second interval fixed component in the second direction. This allows flexible adjustment of the overall length dimensions of the two interval fixed elements, ensuring that the lengths of the two interval fixed elements can be conveniently variable.

[0044] In the embodiment, each interval fixed element 131 can also be provided with multiple concave portions 132. In this way, the number of concave portions 132 included in the first interval fixed component 130 is the sum of the number of concave portions 132 of the interval fixed elements 131 included in the first interval fixed component 130. Similarly, this applies to the second interval fixed component. In the embodiment, since each interval fixed element 131 is provided with multiple concave portions 132, the interval fixed element 131 forms a substantially comb-like structure.

[0045] In the embodiment, the thickness of the conductive plates can be the same. Consequently, the width of any two concave portions 132 can also be the same. In addition, in the embodiment, the aforementioned multiple conductive plates can be arranged parallelly along the first direction. This means that each concave portion 132 of the first interval fixed component 130 is provided with a corresponding concave portion 132 of the second interval fixed component along the second direction.

[0046] In the embodiment, each interval fixed element 131 of the first interval fixed component 130 can be provided with a second sub-interlocking part, and the second interlocking part is formed by the second sub-interlocking parts of the first interval fixed component 130. For example, multiple interval fixed elements 131 are arranged within the corresponding deep groove 111 to form the first interval fixed component 130. As mentioned in the previous description, each interval fixed element 131 is provided with multiple concave portions 132. Essentially, each concave portion 132 is defined by adjacent strip-shaped teeth, and the teeth can be connected to one side edge of a plate part of the interval fixed element 131. The plate part is the aforementioned second sub-interlocking part. Multiple interval fixed elements 131 are inserted into the same deep groove 111, and adjacent second sub-interlocking parts abut against each other. In this way, multiple second sub-interlocking parts abut against in sequence, thus forming a second interlocking part that extends along the first direction.

[0047] Similarly, each interval fixed element 131 of the second interval fixed component is provided with a fourth sub-interlocking part, and the fourth interlocking part is formed by the fourth sub-interlocking parts of the second interval fixed component. The structure and arrangement of the fourth sub-interlocking part is the same as that of the second sub-interlocking part above, so it will not be repeated here.

[0048] In the embodiment, any two interval fixed elements 131 among the interval fixed elements 131 comprised in both the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component are the same. In other words, both the first interval fixed component and the second interval fixed component can be formed by unitized interval fixed elements 131. The unitized interval fixed elements 131 are advantageous for efficient mass production. At the same time, based on the quantity of unitized interval fixed elements 131 as the minimum unit, the length of the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component in the first direction can be adjusted, thus achieving variable lengths in the first direction for both.

[0049] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the multiple conductive plates can comprise electric field collection plates 141 and electric field repulsion plates 142, with the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates can be arranged alternately, i.e. alternately along the first direction.

[0050] In the embodiment, as an example, the electric field collection plates 141 can be inserted into the concave portions 132 located at odd positions along the first direction, and the electric field repulsion plates 142 can be inserted into the concave portions 132 located at even positions along the first direction.

[0051] In the embodiment, the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 are of the same structure, as mentioned above, they are provided with strip-shaped structures extending along the second direction. Specifically, both the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 can be, for example, of a generally rectangular shape.

[0052] In the embodiment, both the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 are provided with wiring parts 143. The wiring part 143 of one of the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 is located on a side where the first frame 110 is located, and the wiring part 143 of the other one of the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 is located on a side where the second frame 120 is located.

[0053] In the embodiment, the wiring part 143 can be a strip-shaped flange arranged at one corner of the electric field collection plate 141 and the electric field repulsion plate 142. Multiple wire grooves can be formed on the strip-shaped flange, and each wire groove can be used for wiring, for example, inserting an interference-fit copper wire (e.g., with a width of the wire groove of 0.7 mm and a diameter of copper wire of 0.8mm, which is slightly larger than the width of the wire groove). Subsequently, the copper wires connecting different electric field collection plates 141 are connected together to uniformly supply power to the electric field collection plates 141.

[0054] In the embodiment, the different positions of the wiring parts 143 of the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 are achieved by adjusting the mounting postures of the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142. In the embodiment, when observed along the first direction, the electric field collection plate 141 and the electric field repulsion plate 142 can be structures that are symmetrical to each other. In other words, the posture of the electric field repulsion plate 142 is the same as the posture of the electric field collection plate 141 flipped by 180 degrees.

[0055] As an example, in the embodiment, the conductive plates can be made of aluminum, and the thickness of the conductive plates can be set to 0.3-1 mm. A thickness of less than 0.3mm can result in poor stiffness and bending of the conductive plates, thus leading to variations in the spacing between adjacent conductive plates. On the other hand, a thickness of greater than 1mm can make the conductive plates too thick, and the stiffness will be too high for processing. Additionally, considering the overall weight of the dust collection mechanism, the number of arranged conductive plates will be limited. In the embodiment, the thickness of the conductive plates can be, for instance, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, or 0.9mm.

[0056] In the embodiment, due to the small thickness and soft nature of the aluminum material, the conductive plates are particularly easy to process. This allows the metal plates to be processed without any additional processing steps such as rounding or bending; comparatively, most of the conductive plates in the prior art have structural reinforcement processes such as rounding and/or bending. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the conductive plates can be directly cut into shape using high-speed laser cutting equipment. This allows for a quick and precise cutting of the metal aluminum plates into the required dimensions and shapes, and ensures that the width of the dust collection mechanism can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0057] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first frame 110 can comprise a first frame body, and the first frame body can comprise a first plate and a second plate 112 arranged opposite to each other, and a third plate connecting the first plate and the second plate 112. The first interval fixed component 130 can be arranged on one side of the first plate facing the second plate 112, and the second plate 112 is detachably connected to the third plate.

[0058] In the embodiment, the first frame body is defined by the first plate, second plate 112, and third plate that are connected to each other to form a slot structure extending along the first direction. In the embodiment, the first plate and the second plate 112 can be parallel, and the third plate can be perpendicular to the first plate and the second plate 112, thus forming a "U"-shaped groove structure.

[0059] In the embodiment, the first interval fixed component 130 is equivalent to being provided within the slot structure of the first frame body, thereby contributing to ensuring that the first interval fixed component 130 and its fixed conductive plates are effectively shielded, thereby improving the resistance of the dust collection mechanism to dirt and moisture.

[0060] Similarly, in the embodiment, the second frame 120 can comprise a second frame body, and the second frame body can comprise a fourth plate and a fifth plate arranged opposite to each other, and a sixth plate connecting the fourth plate and the fifth plate. The second interval fixed component can be arranged on one side of the fourth plate facing the fifth plate, and the fifth plate is detachably connected to the sixth plate.

[0061] In the embodiment, the second frame body is defined by the fourth plate, fifth plate, and sixth plate which are connected to each other to form a slot structure extending along the first direction. In the embodiment, the fourth plate and the fifth plate can be parallel, and the sixth plate can be perpendicular to the fourth plate and the fifth plate, thus forming a "U"-shaped groove structure.

[0062] In the embodiment, the second interval fixed component is equivalent to being provided within the slot structure of the second frame body, thereby contributing to ensuring that the second interval fixed component and its fixed conductive plates are effectively shielded, thereby improving the resistance of the dust collection mechanism to dirt and moisture.

[0063] On this basis, the space defined by the first frame body (i.e., the slot structure of the first frame body) can be filled with the first sealing gel, and the space defined by the second frame body (i.e., the slot structure of the first frame body) is filled with the second sealing gel. In this way, by filling the two slot structures with sealing gel, the conductive plates can be fixed by the solidification of the sealing gel, thus serving as waterproof and dustproof protection for the dust collection mechanism.

[0064] In the embodiment, the first sealing gel and the second sealing gel can be formed by the solidification of liquid sealing gel. In other words, during the assembly process of the dust collection mechanism, the liquid sealing gel is poured into the aforementioned two slot structures, and after the sealing gel solidifies, it forms the first sealing gel and the second sealing gel.

[0065] In the embodiment, due to the gel sealing on both sides of the conductive plates in the second direction, the dust collection mechanism has excellent waterproof, dustproof, and insulation effects. Therefore, the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure not only allows for variable dimensions according to design needs but can also be immersed, washed, and used immediately without waiting for the dust collection mechanism to dry completely.

[0066] In the embodiment, the second plate 112 is detachably connected to the third plate, allowing the second plate 112 to be mounted onto the third plate in a relatively later assembly step during the assembly of the dust collection mechanism. In the relatively earlier assembly steps, since the second plate 112 has not been mounted onto the third plate, the opposite side of the first plate is open. Thus, according to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first interval fixed component 130 can be arranged on the side of the first plate facing the second plate 112 and all the concave portions 132 included in the first interval fixed component 130 are open toward the second plate 112.

[0067] Thus, when the second plate 112 is not yet mounted, since the second plate 112 is not shielding the first interval fixed component 130, multiple interval fixed elements 131 can be inserted into the deep groove 111 and the conductive plates can be inserted into the concave portion 132 through the open position where the second plate 112 is not shielding the first interval fixed component 130. This eliminates the need to consider the interference caused by the second plate 112 during the assembly process, thus effectively improving the assembly efficiency of the dust collection mechanism.

[0068] Similarly, the detachable connection between the fifth plate and the sixth plate has the same beneficial effect as described above.

[0069] In the embodiment, the detachable connection between the second plate 112 and the third plate can be the same as the detachable connection between the fifth plate and the sixth plate. Taking the second plate 112 and the third plate as an example, the second plate 112 can be provided with a groove extending along the first direction, and the edge of the second plate 112 is inserted into the groove to achieve a detachable connection with the third plate.

[0070] Additionally, in the embodiment, the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 mentioned above can be obtained by extrusion molding. It should be understood that when both the first frame body and the second frame body are provided with detachable structures, the two detachable structures are separately molded via extrusion.

[0071] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the dust collection mechanism can further comprise multiple intermediate interval fixed components 180 provided between the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component. Each intermediate interval fixed component 180 can comprise multiple concave portions 132 arranged successively along the extending direction, and each conductive plate is inserted into the corresponding concave portion 132 of each intermediate interval fixed component 180.

[0072] In the embodiment, the intermediate interval fixed component 180 is capable of providing support to the portion of the conductive plates located between the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component when the conductive plates have a certain length in the second direction. This helps prevent deformation of the conductive plates due to their longer length and lower stiffness (or due to a larger number of conductive plates) under the influence of gravity, thereby avoiding any impact on the spacing between adjacent conductive plates (such as uneven spacing distribution or even the occurrence of a short circuit of electric field between the electric field collection plates 141 and the electric field repulsion plates 142 when they are in contact).

[0073] In the embodiment, the structure of the intermediate interval fixed component 180 can be similar to that of the first interval fixed component 130. Specifically, the intermediate interval fixed component 180 can include a plate extending along the first direction, and the plate is provided with multiple concave portions 132 (equal in number and corresponding one-to-one to the concave portions 132 in the first interval fixed component 130), with each concave portion 132 configured for inserting the corresponding conductive plate.

[0074] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the dust collection mechanism can further comprise a third frame 160 and a fourth frame 170 provided at intervals along the extending direction. The third frame 160 can be connected to a first end of the first frame 110 in the extending direction and a first end of the second frame 120 in the extending direction. The fourth frame 170 can be connected to a second end of the first frame 110 in the extending direction and a second end of the second frame 120 in the extending direction. In this way, according to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the third frame 160 and the fourth frame 170 can cooperate with the first frame 110 and the second frame 120 to form a rectangular frame structure, which encloses the conductive plates, the first interval fixed component 130, and the second interval fixed component in the middle. Therefore, it is advantageous for further improving the resistance of the dust collection mechanism to dirt, water, and moisture.

[0075] In the embodiment, the third frame 160 and the fourth frame 170 can both be "U"-shaped groove structures and can also be obtained through an extrusion molding process. The beneficial effects are similar to those of the first frame 110 and the second frame 120, and will not be repeated here.

[0076] In the embodiment, both ends of each intermediate interval fixed component 180 in the extending direction can be connected to the third frame 160 and the fourth frame 170, respectively. This makes each intermediate interval fixed component 180 more stable and ensures more reliable support of the conductive plate. In the embodiment, on the side of the third frame 160 facing the fourth frame 170, there can be a slot formed to accommodate the insertion of the above-mentioned plate of each intermediate interval fixed component 180. Similarly, on the side of the fourth frame 170 facing the third frame 160, there can be a slot formed to accommodate the insertion of the above-mentioned plate of each intermediate interval fixed component 180.

[0077] In the embodiment, the outer edge of each conductive plate inserted into each intermediate interval fixed component 180 can be provided with a recessed portion 141a. This helps prevent the intermediate interval fixed component 180 from easily slipping or moving. Additionally, it facilitates the insertion of the conductive plate into the corresponding concave portion 132 of each intermediate interval fixed component 180, thereby improving the efficiency of assembling the dust collection mechanism.

[0078] Additionally, the position of each conductive plate inserted into the concave portion 132 of the first interval fixed component 130 and the position of each conductive plate inserted into the concave portion 132 of the second interval fixed component can also be provided with the aforementioned recessed portions 141a, which provides similar benefits and is not further elaborated here.

[0079] In the embodiment, the interval fixed element 131 included in the first interval fixed component 130 and the second interval fixed component, in the width dimension, is wider than or equal to the width of the conductive plate. This ensures adequate support for the conductive plates, thus preventing deformation or changes in relative positions during long-term use.

[0080] In the embodiment, the dust collection mechanism further includes a circuit controller. The circuit controller can be mounted in the "U"-shaped groove of the third frame 160 to provide the high voltage required for the electrostatic field of the conductive plates. The power input point 190 can be exposed on the outer side of the third frame 160 and connected electrically to the circuit controller. Additionally, the circuit controller in the "U"-shaped groove of the third frame 160 can be fixed by filling with sealing gel. Combining the arranging of the first sealing gel and the second sealing gel mentioned above, due to the gel sealing on both sides of the conductive plates in the second direction and the circuit controller, the dust collection mechanism has excellent waterproof, dustproof, and insulation effects. Therefore, the dust collection mechanism can be immersed and rinsed with water and is immediately usable without waiting for complete drying.

[0081] As an example, in the embodiment, during the operational state of the dust collection mechanism, the third frame 160 can be the upper frame of the dust collection mechanism, and correspondingly the fourth frame 170 can be the lower frame. The first frame 110 and the second frame 120 can both be the side frames.

[0082] According to the dust collection mechanism provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a certain number of conductive plates can be quickly assembled and positioned solely through two sets of interval fixed components so as to achieve the parallel arrangement of the conductive plates in a manner of quick assembly. In the embodiment, quick customization of the dust collection electrode in a wide range of sizes can be achieved by altering the length and/or the quantity of the conductive plates (wherein the conductive plate also can be continuously produced along the second direction, thus allowing for obtaining the required length); trimming different lengths of the left, right, top, and bottom frames; and adjusting the number of the interval fixed components 131 in use or the length of the interval fixed element 131 considered as the minimum unit.

[0083] According to the dust removal device provided in the second aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the dust removal device comprises the aforementioned dust collection mechanism. Additionally, the dust removal device can comprise an ion generator, and the ion generator is separately arranged from the dust collection mechanism. In the embodiment, the ion generator supplies charged electrodes (to impart a charge to pollutants), and the dust collection mechanism provides collecting electrodes (to adsorb charged pollutants). The combined action of both contributes to the purification effect.

[0084] In other words, the ion generator and the dust collection mechanism are two separate modules from each other. Since the operating voltage and cleaning methods of the ion generator are different from those of the dust collection mechanism, compared to the arrangement that integrates the two modules into one body, the advantage of the separated arrangement is that it facilitates independent design, manufacturing, and assembly of the ion generator and the dust collection structure. Additionally, it is more conducive to the efficient individual cleaning of the ion generator and the dust collection structure. In other words, there is no need to be constrained by the higher operating voltage of the ion generator when considering the integration of the ion generator and the dust collection mechanism, which can lead to issues such as creeping discharge in the dust collection mechanism. Similarly, there is no need to be constrained by the potential adverse effects of water immersion cleaning of the dust collection mechanism on the ion generator.

[0085] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Any equivalent structural transformations made under the innovative concepts of the present disclosure, utilizing the contents of the summary and the drawings, or directly/indirectly applying them in other related technical fields are included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
