Description

Technical Field

[0001] An energy-saving ventilation technology is applied to residential and household range hoods and exhaust systems, effectively reducing indoor air exhaust and saving energy. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, mechanical ventilation is used for the emission of cooking fumes in residential and household kitchens and other places requiring exhaust. This involves using exhaust hoods or vents, ducts, and exhaust fans to form a range hood or exhaust system. The negative pressure generated by the exhaust fan forces indoor air to collect pollutants into the exhaust hood or vent, which are then exhausted outdoors through the duct system. This method consumes a significant amount of comfortable indoor air, resulting in energy loss. It also creates negative pressure indoors, requiring corresponding amounts of fresh outdoor air to enter through gaps in doors and windows. If this fresh air supply is insufficient, cooking fumes cannot be effectively exhausted, leading to air pollution and health problems. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention relates to a novel energy-saving civilian and household range hood and ventilation system, which is an extension of my previous invention of a jet-flow exhaust system. It effectively solves the problems of energy waste and reduced indoor comfort caused by high negative pressure in conventional indoor kitchen exhaust systems. It also addresses the issue of insufficient outdoor fresh air intake preventing the proper exhaust of polluted areas. The core of this invention lies in its system design and key components, as detailed below: The core system solution utilizes outdoor air to remove pollutants. A pressurized fan forces outdoor air into the exhaust hood cavity, creating a guiding airflow that mixes, guides, and captures pollutants towards the exhaust hood opening. Simultaneously, the outdoor air supplied by the pressurized fan utilizes a constriction principle to increase the outdoor airflow velocity, creating negative pressure at the exhaust hood opening to draw in pollutants. The high-speed jet airflow generated by the constriction quickly removes the pollutants, which are then discharged outdoors by the exhaust fan. Depending on the application scenario, the exhaust hood may not have a cavity and does not require guiding airflow; depending on the application scenario, an exhaust fan may not be necessary; for ordinary exhaust systems, the exhaust hood can be replaced with an exhaust outlet. The core components are a pressurizing fan, an exhaust hood, a converging duct assembly, and an exhaust fan. Their characteristics are as follows: the pressurizing fan supplies outdoor air; a general-purpose product can be selected based on specific parameters. The exhaust hood needs to be customized according to the pollution source, and its parameters need to be determined through design. Whether using a converging or narrowing duct design, the converging duct assembly aims to accelerate outdoor airflow to create negative pressure and quickly remove pollutants; it needs to be calculated and customized according to requirements. The exhaust fan is used for the relay transport of pollutants, and its design is determined based on the system resistance requirements. The novel energy-saving civilian and household range hood and ventilation system of the present invention uses outdoor air to replace indoor air, thereby significantly reducing the exhaust of indoor air and achieving the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction. The components of the present invention are specifically adjusted according to different application sites or types of pollutants, and their appearance and component design may be adjusted, but the core of the above remains unchanged.
