ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for a dust collecting work station that utilizes a positive pressure air flow to entrap particulate material from within the work station. The dust collecting work station is especially suited for use by dental technicians, goldsmiths and jewelers. The work station can be economically manufactured, operated with typically available compressed air supply, and can be constructed to fit upon a table top. The dust collecting work station includes a collection base with a back shield that together enclose a work area. A positive pressure air flow is provided to the work area for removing particulate material by impacting the particulate with the positive pressure air flow. A filter media positioned proximately to the collection base entrains the particulate material that is knocked down by the positive pressure air flow. The positive pressure airflow can be supplied by a nozzle located proximate to the face of a user or supplied by a nozzle located proximate to the back shield. Additionally, a settling tray can be employed to collect the suspended particulate material generated from a grinding, deburring or a similar material processing operation by the user on a metallic or ceramic object.
