Description

  The present invention relates to a dust suction device, and more particularly to a work table used when processing hobbies, nail art, and the like.

When cutting or polishing indoors or on a table, a sheet is placed on the table to make a work table, or a work table with folding legs is installed, and hobbies, nail art, etc. are processed on the work table. During this processing, the dust soars around it, and the soaring dust is scattered around and the operator sucks a part of it.
When the work is completed, the dust scattered around is sucked and collected by a vacuum cleaner or the like.
For example, a small suction cleaner is used as an apparatus for sucking and collecting dust in this way (see Patent Document 1).
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-145350

When a small suction cleaner as described in the above publication is used, there is a problem that further cleaning work is required after the work is completed, and extra labor and time are required.
In addition, dust is scattered over a wide area and easily enters narrow corners, making it difficult to clean and leaving uncleaned areas. In the case where there is a device, there is a problem that if dust that scatters enters the precision device, this may cause a failure.

Further, in the case of using a volatile solvent such as nail art, since this volatile solvent is sucked, there is a problem in health and hygiene.
The present invention has been proposed in view of the above problems, and does not require a cleaning operation after the completion of the work, uses a volatile solvent like nail art, and does not suck in the volatile solvent, thereby improving health and hygiene. The object is to provide an excellent workbench on top.

  In order to achieve the above object, the work bench according to the present invention has a suction port that also serves as a processing work surface on the upper surface of the housing, and a suction fan that is rotationally driven by an electric motor in the housing below the suction port. It is characterized in that it is configured so that dust or the like sucked from the suction port by driving the suction fan is captured by the capturing means, and exhaust gas in which dust or the like is captured is discharged from the exhaust port to the outside. .

  Further, in the work table according to the present invention, the casing is a desk or table for reading or learning, or the work table is a plate-like member having ventilation disposed over substantially the entire surface of the suction port. The trapping means is formed by a filter disposed on the inner part of the casing of the plate-like member, and further, a small case or / and a wrist rest mounting recess is formed on a part of the upper surface of the casing. This is also a feature.

According to the workbench of the present invention, when processing a hobby or nail art or the like on the workbench while the suction fan is driven by an electric motor, dust generated during the work is sucked from the suction port that also serves as the work surface. And being captured by the capturing means, it is prevented from being scattered around.
Thereby, there exists an advantage which can eliminate the effort and time which clean the dust scattered around like the past with a suction cleaner.

  In addition, since dust that has been ground during processing is prevented from scattering, even if there is a precision device such as a personal computer near the grinding operation at a nail art store or the like, the dust will enter the precision device. There is also an advantage that it is possible to prevent the precision device from being broken by the dust that the precision device such as a personal computer is scattered by the intrusion of dust or the like as in the past.

Further, even during processing using a volatile solvent such as nail art, the solvent that volatilizes and evaporates is directly sucked and exhausted from the suction port, so that the operator can be prevented from sucking the solvent.
Thereby, there is an advantage that a work table excellent in health and hygiene can be provided without using a volatile solvent by using a volatile solvent like nail art.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment according to a work bench of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a working state of the work table, FIG. 2 is a longitudinal side view of the work table, FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the work table, and reference numeral 1 in the drawing denotes the work table as a whole.
The work table 1 includes a box-shaped housing 3 having a processing work surface 2 formed on an upper surface portion, and a capturing unit 4 incorporated in the housing 3.

The casing 3 is formed in a box shape having an opening at the bottom, and an upper surface portion is formed on an inclined surface 5 whose front side is lowered, and a rectangular concave portion 7 is formed on the upper horizontal portion 6 of the inclined surface 5 in plan view. ing.
The concave portion 7 is used as a concave portion for storing small items such as tools and router bits, or as a concave portion for attaching the wrist rest 8 at the time of nail art as shown by an imaginary diagram in FIG.

Further, the inclined surface 5 portion of the housing 3 is formed in a square frame shape with a base plate attachment portion 9 for forming the processing work surface 6 one step lower, and the bottom portion has a suction hole 10 in the center portion. A suction port 12 is formed in a funnel shape with a gentle inclined surface 11.
A base plate 13 attached to the base plate attachment portion 9 includes a substrate (plate-like member) 14 formed of punching metal, and a reinforcing plate 15 in which a filter 16 formed of a sheet-like nonwoven fabric is stretched on the housing 3 side. Consists of.

  The filter 16 of this example is formed of a non-woven fabric, but it is breathable and can capture dust, for example, a sponge filter or a paper filter. Thus, when using the organic solvent which has volatility, it is desirable to set it as the filter containing the material which adsorb | sucks organic solvents, such as activated carbon.

The capturing means 4 mounted inside the housing 3 is provided with a fan shroud 18 having a centrifugal fan 17 installed below the suction hole 10 of the suction port 12 attached to the housing, and a commercial power supply is connected to the fan shroud 18. The fan shroud 18 is attached to a rotating shaft 20 that protrudes into the fan shroud 18.
Further, a cylindrical exhaust port 21 is formed on the side surface of the fan shroud 18, and the exhaust port 21 is not shown in the portion protruding from the outlet hole 22 formed on the side surface of the housing 3. Ducts are connected.
Note that reference numeral 25 in FIG. 1 is a switch for starting the electric motor 19.

Next, the operation of the work table formed as described above will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, when a workpiece (not shown) is ground by the router 23, first, the switch 25 is turned on to drive the electric motor 19, and the centrifugal fan 17 is rotated. In a state of suction.
Next, the work is ground by the router 23 held in the hand 24. At the time of this grinding process, the ground dust tends to fly up, but this is sucked by the centrifugal fan 17 from the punching metal portion of the substrate 14 and captured by the filter 16 portion. 21 is discharged to the outside through a duct.

When dust trapped in this way accumulates in the filter 16, since the intake efficiency decreases, the filter 16 of the work table 1 that has been operated for a predetermined time is replaced with the reinforcing plate 15 after the substrate 14 of the base plate 13 is removed.
In addition, when processing using volatile solvent such as nail art, as described above, when the filter 16 containing activated carbon that adsorbs an organic solvent is used, the solvent that volatilizes and evaporates when the outside air is sucked from the suction port 12. Since the organic solvent is adsorbed on the activated carbon and then exhausted, the operator does not suck the solvent.

Although the centrifugal fan 17 is used as the capturing means 4 in the above embodiment, it is needless to say that the centrifugal fan 17 is not limited to this and can be an axial flow fan. .
In the above-described embodiment, the work table is formed by the box-shaped housing 3, but a meal or other table or desk can be used as the housing.

These are the perspective views of the use condition of the worktable concerning this invention. These are the vertical side views of the work bench | platform concerning this invention. FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of a work table according to the present invention.
