Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、室内空気中に含まれる粉塵や臭気等を除去して空気の清浄化を行う空気清浄器に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から、粉塵を帯電させる帯電部10′と、帯電した粉塵を捕集するための集塵部と、帯電部10′及び集塵部に空気を送る送風部とを備えた空気清浄器が知られている。この空気清浄器の帯電部10′は放電部18と対極部22′とからなり、放電部18から対極部22′に向かう放電により送風部から送られてきた空気中に含まれる粉塵を放電により帯電させた後、集塵部でクーロン力により電気的に集塵し、これにより室内空気中に含まれる粉塵や臭気等を除去して空気の清浄化を行っている。
【0003】
上記の帯電部10′は、送風を妨げないよう図11〜図13に示すように、線状の放電部18と、送風方向イと平行に配置された板状の対極部22′とで構成している場合が多い。なお図中15′は上記放電部18及び対極部22′を支持する電極枠である。
【0004】
しかしながら、上記図11〜図13における対極部22′は夫々別々に設けられているため剛性が弱く、対極部22′を持ち運ぶ時や対極部22′に付着した粉塵を洗浄する時等、非常に取り扱いづらく、また対極部22′同士位置決めして保持することができないという問題があった。
【0005】
また、図14に示すように1枚の導電性鋼板をプレス加工することにより送風方向イを向いたコ字状の対極部22′を形成し、該対極部22′に空気通り孔26′を形成した帯電部10′を有する空気清浄器も知られている。この場合、確かに放電部18の剛性は強くなるが、対極部22′は1枚の導電性鋼板からなるため、放電部18からの放電が送風方向と垂直な方向ロに行われずに、送風方向イと平行な方向に行われることがあり、これによって送風部によって送られてきた空気中に含まれる粉塵が放電部18からの放電を横切らずに帯電されない状態で集塵部に送られてしまい、集塵能力が低下してしまう。また、上記図14の帯電部10′を有する空気清浄器において、図15に示すように送風方向イと平行な方向における放電部18から対極部22′までの距離L1を送風方向と垂直な方向ロにおける放電部18から対極部22′までの距離L2よりも長くなるように対極部22′を設け(例えばL1>1.5×L2と設定)、これによって集塵能力を高める方法も考えられるが、この場合、送風方向イと平行な方向における放電部18から対極部22′までの距離L1がかなり長くなってしまうために対極部22′、延いては帯電部10′及び空気清浄器が大型化してしまうという新たな問題が生じてしまう。
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上記の点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、高い集塵能力を維持でき、対極部の剛性を強くでき、対極部の設置位置を保持でき、小型化を実現でき、通風性を向上することができる空気清浄器を提供することを課題とするものである。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するために本発明に係る空気清浄器は、放電部18と対極部22とからなり、放電部18から対極部22に向かう放電により粉塵を帯電させる帯電部10と、帯電した粉塵を捕集するための集塵部11と、帯電部10及び集塵部11に空気を送る送風部8とを備えた空気清浄器1において、前記対極部22を、送風方向イと垂直な方向ロにおいて放電部18の両側に位置する導電板24と、幅方向の両端部を各導電板24の端部に接続した連結板25とで断面略コ字状に形成し、両導電板24間の中間部に放電部18を配置し、連結板25に丸形の空気通り孔26を連結板25の幅方向と直交する方向に中心間距離を同じにして複数設けて、連結板25を放電部18の空気の流れの下流側に配置し、放電部18と連結板25間との距離L1を放電部18と導電板間24との距離L2より大とするとともに、前記複数の空気通り孔26を、送風方向イにおいて連結板25の放電部18と重なる位置に空気通り孔26を設けて成ることを特徴とするものである。
【0008】
上記のように両導電板24を接続する連結板25を設けることで、対極部22の剛性を強くして両導電板24の設置位置を保持することができ、尚且つ送風方向イにおいて連結板25の放電部18と重なる位置に空気通り孔26を設けることで、連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなって放電部18からの送風方向イと平行な方向の放電が少なくなり、安定して送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を行うことができる。また上記のように送風方向イにおいて連結板25の放電部18と重なる面積が小さいために、放電部18から連結板25までの距離を小さくすることができる。
【0009】
また請求項2記載の空気清浄器は、放電部18と対極部22とからなり、放電部18から対極部22に向かう放電により粉塵を帯電させる帯電部10と、帯電した粉塵を捕集するための集塵部11と、帯電部10及び集塵部11に空気を送る送風部8とを備えた空気清浄器1において、前記放電部18を線状に形成し、前記対極部22を、送風方向と垂直な方向ロにおいて放電部18の両側に位置する導電板24、24と、幅方向の両端部を両導電板24の端部に接続した連結板25とで断面略コ字状に形成し、両導電板24間の中間部に放電部18を配置し、連結板25に丸形の空気通り孔26を連結板25の幅方向と直交する方向に中心間距離を同じにして複数設けて、連結板25を放電部8の空気の流れの下流側に配置し、放電部18と連結板25間との距離L1を放電部18と導電板間24との距離L2より大とするとともに、前記前記連結板25の幅方向と直交する方向に複数設けた空気通り孔26を、各丸形の空気通り孔26が送風方向から見て線状の放電部18と接する位置に配置して成ることを特徴とするものである。
【0010】
上記のように導電板24を接続する連結板25を設けることで、対極部22の剛性を強くして両導電板24の設置位置を保持することができ、尚且つ対極部22に丸形の空気通り孔26を中心間距離を同じにして複数設けることで、通風性を維持しながらさらにより一層対極部22の剛性が強くなる。また、連結板25の空気通り孔26を空気通り孔26の接線が送風方向イにおいて放電部18と重なるように配設することで、連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部18からの送風方向イと平行な方向の放電が少なくなり、安定して送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を行うことができ、これによって高い集塵能力が得られる。また、連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部18から連結板25までの距離を小さくすることができ、これによって対極部22の小型化、延いては帯電部10や空気清浄器1の小型化を行うことができるものである。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明を添付図面に示す実施形態に基づいて説明する。
【0012】
本実施形態における空気清浄器1は図3に示すように前面側が開口するハウジング2を有しており、このハウジング2の前面開口部を覆うようにしてカバー3が着脱自在に取り付けられている。カバー3はハウジング2の開口部を介してハウジング2内部と連通するように開口しており、このカバー3の開口部を覆うようにグリル4が着脱自在に設けられている。上記グリル4と、グリル4とカバー3との間の隙間、カバー3の前面下部には夫々吸込口5が形成されており、各吸込口5を介してハウジング2内部と外部とが連通している。またハウジング2の天板後部には吐出口6が設けられている。
【0013】
ハウジング2内部は前側のフィルタブロック7と後側の送風部8とに大別され、フィルタブロック7は前面がカバー3に覆われるようにハウジング2内部の前部に収納されている。またフィルタブロック7はハウジング2の開口部の内側に着脱自在に取付けられており、ハウジング2からカバー3を取り外してフィルタブロック7を取り出すことができる。
【0014】
送風部8には図3に示すモータ12が設置されると共にファン収納部13が設けてあり、このファン収納部13にシロッコファン14が配置してある。しかしてシロッコファン14が回転すると、前記空気清浄器1に設けた各吸込口5からハウジング2外部の空気をハウジング2内に吸い込み、この吸い込んだ空気がフィルタブロック7に前面側から入り込み、フィルタブロック7の後面側から排出された後、シロッコファン14を経て吐出口6からハウジング2上方に排出される。
【0015】
以下フィルタブロック7について詳述する。フィルタブロック7は前から順にプレフィルタ9、粉塵を帯電させる帯電部10、帯電した粉塵を捕集するための集塵部11を構成しており、プレフィルタ9、帯電部10、集塵部11は夫々ハウジング2に着脱自在に取りつけられている。
【0016】
帯電部10は空気中の粉塵を帯電させる粉塵荷電手段を有しており、図1、図2、図4に示すようにハウジング2の前後方向に開口する矩形状の電極枠15と、この電極枠15の前側に配設された放電電極16と、電極枠15の後側に配設された対向電極17とで構成されている。
【0017】
放電電極16は導電性を有し且つ線形状を有する複数の放電線39からなり、本実施形態においてはこの放電線39として細いタングステン線或いはピアノ線を使用している。該放電線39の中央部は図1、図2に示すように電極枠15の上端部に引っ掛けられると共に、両端部はコイルばね19により張力が与えられた状態で電極枠15の下端部に設けられた金属性の放電部支持部材20に引っ掛けられて電極枠15に取付けられており、これによりU字状をした各放電線39の上下方向を向いた2つの線状部分に放電部18を形成し、すなわちこの放電部18は送風方向と垂直な方向に保持されることとなる。なお、図中21は各放電線39の中央部の電極枠15との接続部分に被せられたゴム製あるいは合成樹脂製の弾性及び絶縁性を有するチューブであり、電極枠15から放電線39に伝わる振動を吸収するものである。
【0018】
放電電極16の後方に配置される対向電極17は、図5に示すように一枚の導電性を有する鋼板のパンチングネットをプレス加工することにより形成されており、着脱自在に電極枠15に取付けられている。対向電極17は複数の水平断面略コ字状の対極部22を前向きに配置すると共に左右方向(電極枠15の幅方向)に複数配置し、左右方向に隣り合う対極部22の端部同士を接続板部23にて連結して一体に形成されている(図4参照)。すなわち対向電極17は図6に示すように複数の対極部22を接続板部23にて接続した角波状に形成されている。また対極部22は図6に示すように前後方向に沿って形成されると共に放電部18の左右方向における両側に位置する導電板24と、左右方向に沿って形成されると共に両導電板24、24の後端部同士を連結する導電板24と一体の連結板25とで構成されている。すなわち、導電板24は図6に示すように送風方向イと平行に形成され且つ送風方向と垂直な方向ロにおける放電部16の両側に位置することとなり、連結板25は送風方向イに対して垂直に形成され且つ放電部18の下流側に位置することとなる。上記対極部22は、両導電板24、24間の左右方向中央部に放電部18が位置すると共に両導電板24の吸込口5側の端部同士を結ぶ線上に放電部18が位置するように配設されている。更に言うと送風方向イと平行な方向における放電部18から対極部22までの距離L1が送風方向と垂直な方向ロにおける放電部18から対極部22までの距離L2よりも長くなるように形成されている。すなわち、放電部18から連結板25までの最端距離は放電部18から導電板24までの最端距離よりも長くなるように設定されている。導電板24と連結板25との両コーナー部37、37は放電部18と反対側に凸となるように屈曲しており、両コーナー部37、37には放電部18と反対側に凸となる円弧面36を形成している。上記のように形成された対向電極17には図1、図2、図5に示すように丸形(本実施形態においては特に円形としている)の空気通り孔26が対向電極17の略全面に亘って複数設けられており、これにより帯電部10前方から流れてきた空気は空気通り孔26を介して集塵部11に送られることとなる。また図1及び図2では説明を分かり易くするために、対向電極17の複数の対極部22のうち、一つの対極部22の空気通り孔26だけを図示しているものとする。
【0019】
上記のように対極部22に導電板24を接続する連結板25を構成することで、対極部22の剛性を強くすることができる。また対向電極17全面、特に対極部22の連結板25に空気通り孔26を設けているので連結板25が送風の妨げにならず、送風量の低下を防止することができ、さらにこの空気通り孔26は円形に形成されているので空気通り孔26で手を傷付ける恐れがなくなる。また上記空気通り孔26は隣合う空気通り孔26の中心間距離が同じになるように配置されており、これによってより一層対極部22の剛性が強くなり、また通風性も良くなる。
【0020】
フィルタブロック7の片側下部には図示しない高圧発生回路に電気的に接続された高圧接点27(図2参照)が配設されており、この高圧接点27と帯電部10に設けた放電部支持部材20とが一定の接触圧で接触することにより、放電電極17と高圧発生回路とが電気的に接続され、放電電極17に例えば+6.5kVの高電圧が印加される。またフィルタブロック7の高圧接点27と反対側の片側下部には高圧発生回路の接地側に電気的に接続されたGND接点28が配設されており、このGND接点28と前述した対向電極17とは図示しないGNDばねを介して接続されている。すなわちGNDばねが一定の接触圧を維持しながら対向電極17と接触し、GND接点28がGNDばねと一定の接触圧で接触することで、対向電極17がGND接点28に電気的に接続されることとなる。上記により帯電部10を収納した際に放電電極16と高圧接点27、対向電極17とGND接点28とが電気的に接続されることとなり、これにより高電圧を印加された放電電極16の放電部18から対向電極17の対極部22の導電板24に送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を起こし、帯電部10は送風部8により送られてきた空気中に含まれる粉塵をプラスに帯電させる。
【0021】
集塵部11は図7に示すように集塵部11の最上流側に配置されると共に空気清浄器1内に吸い込まれた空気中に含まれる粉塵を捕集するための集塵フィルタ部29と、集塵フィルタ部29の下流側に位置すると共に空気清浄器1内に吸い込まれた空気の脱臭を行う脱臭フィルタ部30とで主体を構成している。
【0022】
脱臭フィルタ部30は極細の繊維が配合されたろ材からなり、該脱臭フィルタ部30には微細粒子化された微細脱臭剤33がバインダにより接着されており、この微細脱臭剤33により捕集した臭いを脱臭している。
【0023】
集塵フィルタ部29はハニカムコア31と、ハニカムコア31に充填された活性炭のような脱臭剤32とからなり、脱臭剤32をハニカムコア31に充填することで脱臭剤32のバラツキ、移動、偏りを防止している。
【0024】
上記脱臭フィルタ部30と集塵フィルタ部29との間には空気を通す中敷きシート34が設けられており、脱臭フィルタ部30と集塵フィルタ部29とを分離している。
【0025】
また前記ハニカムコア31の下流側には不織物で形成されたカバーリング材35が熱溶着されており、つまりこのカバーリング材35は集塵部11の最下流部に配置されており、該カバーリング材35は脱臭剤32の漏れ、バラツキ、移動、偏りを防止している。
【0026】
しかして、上記フィルタブロック7の構成により、吸込口5から送られてきた空気は、まずプレフィルタ7で空気中に含まれる大きな粉塵が捕集され、その後帯電部10で小さな粉塵がプラスに帯電し、このプラスに帯電した粉塵が分極帯電した集塵部11の集塵フィルタ部29にクーロン力で引き寄せて捕集される。集塵フィルタ部29で粉塵を捕集された空気はその下流側にある脱臭フィルタ部30で臭気が除去され、浄化・無臭化された空気がハウジング2外部に排出される。
【0027】
ところで、上記のように帯電部10の対極部22に導電板24を接続する連結板25を構成した場合、放電部18からの放電が送風方向と垂直な方向ロに行われずに、送風方向イと平行な方向に行われることがあり、これによって帯電部10に送られてきた粉塵が放電部18からの放電を横切らずに帯電されない状態で集塵部11に送られてしまい、集塵能力が低下してしまうという問題が生じてしまう。
【0028】
そこで本実施形態においては、図8に示すように対極部22の連結板25の送風方向イにおいて放電部18と重なる位置に空気通り孔26を設けた。詳述すると対向電極17全面に設けた複数の空気通り孔26のうち、連結板25の幅方向における中央部に上下方向に複数設けられた空気通り孔26が連結板25の送風方向イにおいて放電部18と重なる位置になるように対極部22を配設し、送風方向イから見て放電部18が空気通り孔26の中心を通るように対極部22を配置した。
【0029】
このように構成することで、連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなって放電部18からの送風方向イと平行な方向の放電が少なくなり、安定して送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を行うことができ、これによって高い集塵能力が得られる。また連結板25の送風方向イにおいて放電部18と重なる面積が小さいために、放電部18から連結板25までの距離を小さくすることができ(実験の結果図6に示すようにL2を12.5mmと設定した場合、L1が14.5になるまで小さくできる)、これによって対極部22の小型化、延いては帯電部10や空気清浄器1の小型化も行うことができる。
【0030】
更に言うと、図5に示すように送風方向イと垂直な方向から見て対極部18の放電部18と重なる箇所38(電板24の放電部18から最端距離に位置する箇所)には上記空気通り孔26を設けておらず、また上記送風方向イと垂直な方向から見て対極部22の放電部18と重なる箇所38から下流側に離れた箇所には空気通り孔26が設けており、これによってより一層安定して送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を行うことができる。
【0031】
なお、上記では放電部18を線状に形成した例を示したが本実施形態においては放電部18の形状は限定するものではない。
【0032】
さらに上記では導電板24を放電部18の送風方向イと垂直な左右方向における両側にのみ配置した例を示したが、これに限定されるものではなく、送風方向イと垂直な幅方向の両側及び上下方向の両側に導電板24を設け、導電板24で放電部を囲むように配設しても良く、更に言うと送風方向イから見て円管状の導電板24を設けても良いものとする。この場合、より一層送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電が増え、集塵性能を向上することができる。
【0033】
また、図5、図9に示すように導電板24と連結板25とのコーナー部37に放電部18と反対側に凸となる円弧面36を形成し、この円弧面36と連結板25とに丸形の空気通り孔26を複数設けることも好ましい。ここで円弧面36に設けた空気通り孔26の円弧面に沿った方向における長さR1は図9に示すように円弧面36の円弧の長さR2よりも短くなるように設定されている。
【0034】
このように、円弧面36にも丸形の空気通り孔26を複数設けているので、より一層通風性を高めることができ、このように通風性を高めたにも関わらず空気通り孔26から露出したコーナー部37で手を切ってしまうことも少なくなる。
【0035】
次に上記とは異なる実施形態を示す。なお上記実施形態と同一の構成については同一の番号を付与してあり、重複する説明については説明を省略する。
【0036】
本実施形態においては図2、図10に示すように連結板25の幅方向と直交する方向に複数設けた空気通り孔26を、丸形の空気通り孔26が送風方向から見て線状の放電部18と接する位置に配設している。このように構成することで、連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部18からの送風方向イと平行な方向の放電が少なくなり、安定して送風方向と垂直な方向ロの放電を行うことができ、これによって高い集塵能力が得られる。また、この場合においても連結板25の放電部18の送風方向イと平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部18から連結板25までの距離を小さくすることができ、これによって対極部22の小型化、延いては帯電部10や空気清浄器1の小型化を行うことができるものである。
【0037】
【発明の効果】
上記のように本発明の請求項1記載の発明にあっては、導電板を接続する連結板を設けることで、対極部の剛性強くなり、隣合う空気通り孔の中心間距離が同じになるように配置されており、これによってより一層対極部の剛性が強くなり、持ち運びや洗浄の際に変形することがなく、また送風方向において連結板の放電部と重なる位置に空気通り孔を設けることで、連結板が送風を妨げることを防止できるのはもちろんのこと、加えて連結板の放電部の送風方向と平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなって安定して送風方向と垂直な方向の放電を行うことができ、これによって高い集塵能力が得られる。また連結板の送風方向において放電部と重なる面積が小さいために、放電部から連結板までの距離を小さくすることができ、これによって対極部の小型化、延いては帯電部や空気清浄器の小型化も行うことができるものである。
【0038】
また請求項2記載の発明にあっては、導電板を接続する連結板を設けることで、対極部の剛性が強くなるのはもちろんのこと、且つ対極部に丸形の空気通り孔を中心間距離を同じにして複数設けることでより一層対極部の剛性が強くなり、これによって対極部の洗浄や持ち運びの際に変形してしまうことを防止できる。また空気通り孔は丸形形状を有しているので持ち運びや洗浄の際に空気通り孔で手を切る恐れがなく、メンテナンス性が向上する。さらに、連結板の幅方向と直交する方向に複数設けた空気通り孔を、各丸形の空気通り孔が送風方向から見て線状の放電部と接する位置に配置することで、連結板の放電部の送風方向と平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部からの送風方向と平行な方向の放電が少なくなり、安定して送風方向と垂直な方向の放電を行うことができ、これによって高い集塵能力が得られる。また、連結板の放電部の送風方向と平行な方向に位置する部分の面積が小さくなるため、放電部から連結板までの距離を小さくすることができ、これによって対極部の小型化、延いては帯電部や空気清浄器の小型化を行うことができるものである。

The present invention relates to an air purifier that purifies air by removing dust, odor, and the like contained in indoor air.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known an air purifier having a charging unit 10 ′ for charging dust, a dust collecting unit for collecting charged dust, and a blowing unit for sending air to the charging unit 10 ′ and the dust collecting unit. It has been. The charging unit 10 'of the air purifier includes a discharge unit 18 and a counter electrode unit 22', and dust contained in the air sent from the blower unit due to discharge from the discharge unit 18 toward the counter electrode unit 22 'is discharged. After being charged, the dust is collected electrically by the Coulomb force in the dust collecting part, thereby removing dust, odors and the like contained in the indoor air to clean the air.

[0021]
As shown in FIG. 7, the dust collection unit 11 is disposed on the uppermost stream side of the dust collection unit 11 and also collects dust contained in the air sucked into the air cleaner 1. And a deodorizing filter unit 30 that is located on the downstream side of the dust collecting filter unit 29 and that deodorizes the air sucked into the air cleaner 1.

With the configuration of the filter block 7, the air sent from the suction port 5 first collects large dust contained in the air by the pre-filter 7, and then charges the small dust positively by the charging unit 10. Then, the positively charged dust is attracted and collected by the Coulomb force to the dust collecting filter portion 29 of the dust collecting portion 11 that is polarized and charged. The air from which dust is collected by the dust collection filter unit 29 is deodorized by the deodorization filter unit 30 on the downstream side, and the purified and non-brominated air is discharged outside the housing 2.
[0027]
By the way, when the connecting plate 25 that connects the conductive plate 24 to the counter electrode portion 22 of the charging unit 10 is configured as described above, the discharge from the discharge unit 18 is not performed in the direction B perpendicular to the blowing direction, and the blowing direction In this case, the dust sent to the charging unit 10 is sent to the dust collecting unit 11 without being charged without crossing the discharge from the discharge unit 18, thereby collecting dust. This causes a problem of lowering.
[0028]
Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the air passage hole 26 is provided at a position overlapping with the discharge portion 18 in the blowing direction A of the connecting plate 25 of the counter electrode portion 22.

[0029]
By configuring in this way, the area of the portion of the connecting plate 25 located in the direction parallel to the blowing direction A of the discharge portion 18 is reduced, and the discharge in the direction parallel to the blowing direction A from the discharge portion 18 is reduced. Therefore, it is possible to stably discharge in the direction B perpendicular to the blowing direction, thereby obtaining a high dust collecting ability. In addition, since the area overlapping the discharge part 18 in the blowing direction A of the connecting plate 25 is small, the distance from the discharging part 18 to the connecting plate 25 can be reduced (L2 is set to 12.2 as shown in FIG. 6 as a result of the experiment). If it is set to 5 mm, it can be reduced until L1 becomes 14.5). Thus, the counter electrode portion 22 can be reduced in size, and the charging portion 10 and the air cleaner 1 can also be reduced in size.
[0030]

Thus, the discharge in the direction B perpendicular to the blowing direction can be performed more stably.
[0031]
In addition, although the example which formed the discharge part 18 in the linear form was shown above, in this embodiment, the shape of the discharge part 18 is not limited.
[0032]
Furthermore, although the example which has arrange | positioned the electrically conductive plate 24 only to the both sides in the left-right direction perpendicular | vertical to the ventilation direction a of the discharge part 18 was shown above, it is not limited to this, Both sides of the width direction perpendicular | vertical to the ventilation direction a In addition, conductive plates 24 may be provided on both sides in the vertical direction, and the conductive plate 24 may be disposed so as to surround the discharge portion. In other words, a circular conductive plate 24 may be provided as viewed from the blowing direction a. And In this case, the discharge in the direction B perpendicular to the blowing direction is further increased, and the dust collection performance can be improved.
[0033]
Further, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 9, an arcuate surface 36 that is convex on the opposite side of the discharge portion 18 is formed at the corner portion 37 of the conductive plate 24 and the connecting plate 25, and this arcuate surface 36 and the connecting plate 25 are It is also preferable that a plurality of round air passage holes 26 be provided in the inner wall. Here, the length R1 of the air passage hole 26 provided in the arc surface 36 in the direction along the arc surface is set to be shorter than the arc length R2 of the arc surface 36 as shown in FIG.
[0034]
As described above, since the plurality of round air passage holes 26 are also provided on the arc surface 36, the air permeability can be further improved. It is less likely that the exposed corner portion 37 cuts the hand.
[0035]

It is disposed at a position in contact with the discharge unit 18. By configuring in this way, the area of the connecting plate 25 located in a direction parallel to the blowing direction A of the discharge portion 18 is reduced, so that the discharge in the direction parallel to the blowing direction A from the discharge portion 18 is small. Therefore, it is possible to stably discharge in the direction B perpendicular to the blowing direction, and thereby a high dust collecting ability can be obtained. Also in this case, since the area of the portion of the connecting plate 25 located in the direction parallel to the blowing direction A of the discharge portion 18 is reduced, the distance from the discharge portion 18 to the connecting plate 25 can be reduced. Thus, it is possible to reduce the size of the counter electrode portion 22, and thus the charging portion 10 and the air cleaner 1.
