  • Patent number: 11517165
    Abstract: A cleaner is disclosed, which comprises a main body including an suction inlet through which air containing dust enters, a dust separator provided to separate dust from the air while the air entering from the suction inlet is moving, a first dust collector configured to collect the dust separated by the dust separator, a cyclone portion configured to rotate the air to separate the dust from the air, and a second dust collector collecting the dust separated by the cyclone portion. The dust separator is provided with a plurality of plate shaped members arranged at a predetermined angle with respect to a moving direction of the air, and arranged to be spaced apart from one another to move the air.

  • Patent number: 11338240
    Abstract: A particulate matter collecting apparatus includes a duct, a water sprayer, a micro-channel forming unit, and an impactor. A gas-liquid mixed fluid is formed by spraying water to air flowing along the inside of the duct using the water sprayer. The gas-liquid mixed fluid collides with a collision plate of the impactor after passing through a plurality of micro-channels provided in the micro-channel forming unit. Particulate matter in air is collected by droplets or a liquid film formed on the plurality of micro-channels and the collision plate. Water flowing down from the plurality of micro-channels is discharged through a first water outlet.
