Abstract

Provided is a cyclone dust collector with a higher particle collection efficiency than before. The cyclone dust collector of the present invention includes a nozzle assembly including a plurality of the nozzles arranged within a first cross section defined by a plane containing a center axis of the cylindrical case and part of the spiral flow path intersecting with each other, the nozzles being adapted to spray the water mist in a direction along the first cross section

Claims

1. A cyclone dust collector that includes, inside a cylindrical case, a spiral flow path defined by a spiral guide and a nozzle that sprays water mist, to combine particles to be removed that are contained in an air passing through the spiral flow path with the water mist and to centrifugally collect the particles on an inner surface of the cylindrical case for recovery, the cyclone dust collector comprising:

a nozzle assembly including a plurality of the nozzles arranged within a first cross section defined by a plane containing a center axis of the cylindrical case and part of the spiral flow path intersecting with each other, the nozzles being adapted to spray the water mist in a direction along the first cross section.

2. The cyclone dust collector according to claim 1, further comprising

a partition bar that partitions the first cross section into a plurality of split regions,

wherein the plurality of nozzles of the nozzle assembly are attached to the partition bar to spray the water mist to each of the plurality of split regions.

3. The cyclone dust collector according to claim 2, further comprising

a center pillar that extends along a central part of the cylindrical case,

wherein

the partition bar extends between the center pillar and an inner side face of the cylindrical case, and

the plurality of nozzles of the nozzle assembly are gathered at a substantially central position in a longitudinal direction of the partition bar to spray the water mist radially from the substantially central position.
