The invention relates to the field of ventilation and mechanical engineering and can be used to clean the air in the local area of the workplace of the nail service master [F24F7/007, F24F 13/20, B08B15/04].
In the work of a nail service master at his workplace, there are such harmful and dangerous factors as dust, volatile harmful substances in the air of the working area (acetone, varnish), chemical factors (chlorine, ozone, synthetic detergents), insufficient illumination of the workplace and eye strain. In addition, the peculiarity of the workplace of the nail service master is due to its small area and placement in the aisles of large shopping centres, shops, office buildings, which makes it difficult to provide air ventilation with ventilation systems equipped in buildings. To reduce the impact of harmful factors, they must be completely or partially neutralized. This can be achieved by using personal respiratory protection equipment and placing additional lighting in the workplace. However, the use of individual respiratory equipment brings certain inconveniences in the work of the master and does not provide protection for the client of the master, therefore, a technical solution to this problem is required.
From the prior art, an AIR CLEANER is known [TW201831844 (A), Publ.: Sep. 1, 2018], comprising a housing with openings for air supply and discharge and an air flow channel made between the air supply and air discharge openings, a blower mounted on the housing with the ability to move air from the air supply hole to the air exhaust hole, electric dust collector, HEPA Filter and blower operation control unit.
The disadvantage of the analogue is the low performance due to the stationary design of the air purification device, which significantly complicates the deployment of such a device at the workplace of the nail service master.
Also, from the prior art is known a PORTABLE AIR PURUFIER AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF AND AIR PURIFYING SYSTEM [CN105757818 (A), Publ.: Jul. 13, 2016], containing a housing with at least one air outlet and at least one air inlet, a portable air purifier power supply, a detecting module, a control module, a communication module and a central control unit, a filter and a fan are sequentially arranged in the housing along the air flowing path, the central control unit receives the filter usage condition from the detecting module, transmits the use condition through the communication module, and receives an external command transmitted by the communication module, controls the fan to be started and stopped, and/or controls the fan speed through the control module according to a preset program.
The disadvantage of the analogue is the low efficiency of air purification due to the large size of the device and the inability to change the angle of inclination of the air inlet relative to the surface.
Also known from the prior art is a SMOG DUST EXTRACTION [CN204816121 (U), publ.: Feb. 12, 2015], which includes a housing containing an activated carbon filter, a movable holder, a suction hood, a high-temperature dust-collecting hose, an electric cabinet, a fan, an air outlet and ash bucket.
The disadvantage of this analogue is low performance, due to the large weight and size characteristics of the device, which complicates its placement directly at the workplace of the nail service master, as well as the complexity of servicing the device associated with its design features.
The closest prior art is APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR VACUUMING PARTICLES OR FUMES FROM FINGER NAIL TREATMENTS [US 20070238404 A1, publ. Nov. 10, 2007 y.], including an air diffuser, a filter, a cover, a fan, and a shade in which the fan is located. The air diffuser may be surrounded by the filter except for a bottom opening in the air diffuser. The cover surrounds the filter and the air diffuser except for a bottom opening in the filter and the bottom opening in the air diffuser. The air diffuser and the cover are attached to the shade. The shade has a bottom opening. The fan causes air to flow into the shade through the bottom opening of the shade, then through the bottom opening of the air diffuser, the filter, and a first opening of the cover, then out a set of a plurality of openings in a side of the air diffuser, then through the filter, and then out a set of a plurality of openings in the cover.
The main technical problem of the closest prior art is the location of the point light in such a way that the sucked in by the fan is, together with the dust, passes through the point light source to illuminate it, which causes significant disadvantages. First, the dust that forms during manicure procedures passes through the light source and, thus, darkens the illuminated surface of the fingernails. Secondly, a point light source is located behind a protective grill, which significantly limits the angle of the beam that hits the illuminated surface, while, due to the convex nature of the illuminated surface of the nail, the light from the lamp in the known technical solution forms shadows that interfere with the work of the manicurist. These features of the known technical solution increase the impact of harmful factors and the deterioration of working conditions at the workplace of the nail service master.
The object of the invention is to avoid disadvantages of the closest prior art.
The technical result of the invention is to ensure the possibility of reducing the impact of harmful factors and improving working conditions at the workplace of the nail service master.
