[0028] The following description of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings, is provided to facilitate a more comprehensive understanding of the various embodiments of the present invention as defined in the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to assist understanding, but these details should be construed as merely exemplary. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications may be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, descriptions of directions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0030] It will be understood that when one element (e.g., a first element) is “connected” to another element (e.g., a second element), the element may be directly connected to the other element or an intervening element (e.g., a third element) may be present between the element and the other element.

[0031] The embodiment of the present utility model provides a fume hood assembly with a built-in oil cup, such as Figure 1-2As shown, it includes a smoke hood 100, an oil net 200 and an oil cup 300. The smoke hood 100 can be roughly in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, including a front plate assembly 110 located on the front side thereof, a rear plate assembly 120 located on the rear side thereof, and two side panels 130 located on the left and right sides thereof, respectively. The front plate assembly 110 is connected to the two side panels 130, and the rear plate assembly 120 is also connected to the two side panels, forming a frame-like structure. Therefore, the front plate assembly 110, the rear plate assembly 120 and the two side panels 130 enclose an air inlet at the bottom of the smoke hood 100, and oil smoke can enter the smoke hood 100 through the air inlet. The oil net 200 is installed at the air inlet, and the grease in the air flow can adhere to the oil net 200, thereby reducing the oil content in the air flow entering the interior of the smoke hood 100. The oil cup 300 is located between the two side panels 130 and is removably fixed to the bottom of the rear panel assembly 120. Therefore, installing the oil cup 300 inside the fume hood 100 effectively hides the oil cup 300. The oil cup 300 is located below the rear panel assembly 120, not covered by the fume hood 100, making it easy for the user to access. Furthermore, the oil cup 300 is removably fixed to the bottom of the rear panel assembly 120, making it easy to install and remove.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-6 As shown, a hanging plate 400 is fixed to the bottom of the rear plate assembly 120, and a hook 310 adapted to the hanging plate 400 is provided on the oil cup 300. The hook 310 is hooked on the hanging plate 400, and the detachable installation of the oil cup 300 is realized by hooking, which is more convenient for users to operate.

[0033] Furthermore, the hanging plate 400 includes a fixing portion 410 and a supporting portion 420 connected to the fixing portion 410. The fixing portion 410 is installed on the bottom surface of the rear plate assembly 120. The height of the supporting portion 420 is less than the height of the fixing portion 410. Therefore, a gap is left between the supporting portion 420 and the bottom surface of the rear plate assembly 120 for the hook 310 to move. The hook 310 can move to the top of the supporting portion 420 through the gap and then hook on the support portion 420.

[0034] In this embodiment, the fixing portion 410 can be fixed to the bottom surface of the rear plate assembly 120 by welding, screw fixing or other methods.

[0035] Furthermore, an elastic buckle 430 is provided on the support portion 420. When the hook 310 is hooked on the support portion 420, the elastic buckle 430 is used to apply an upward force to the hook 310 to press the hook 310 against the bottom surface of the rear plate assembly 120. Thus, when the hook 310 is hooked into place, the elastic buckle 430 and the bottom surface of the rear plate assembly 120 will clamp the hook 310, restricting the movement of the hook 310, making it difficult for the hook 310 to detach from the support portion 420, and thus being able to stably hook on the hanging plate 400, thereby improving the stability of the oil cup 300.

[0036] Furthermore, the elastic hook 430 has a guide surface 431 connected to the top surface of the support portion 420. The guide surface 431 is arranged at an angle, and the height of the guide surface 431 gradually increases as the hook 310 is hooked onto the support portion 420. When the hook 310 is hooked onto the support portion 420, the hook 310 moves laterally along the top surface of the support portion 420. When the hook 310 moves to the guide surface 431, the guide surface 431 guides the hook 310 to gradually move above the elastic hook 430. The elastic hook 430 can then apply an upward force to the hook 310, facilitating the hook 310 to be hooked into place smoothly.

[0037] In this embodiment, the fixing portion 410, the supporting portion 420 and the elastic buckle 430 can be integrally formed, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing and can also enhance the connection strength between them. Specifically, the elastic buckle 430 can be stamped and formed by a stamping process.

[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, hanging plates 400 are fixed to the left and right sides of the bottom of the rear plate assembly 120. Hooks 310 that match the hanging plates 400 are provided at both ends of the oil cup 300. The two hooks 310 are hooked to the two hanging plates 400 respectively. The hooking and fixing of both ends of the oil cup 300 allows for a more stable installation of the oil cup 300.

[0039] In other embodiments, the oil cup 300 may also be fixed below the rear plate assembly 120 by other detachable fixing methods such as snap connection, screw fixing, etc.

[0040] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil net 200 is tilted, and the height of the oil net 200 gradually decreases from front to back. Under the action of its own gravity, the oil on the oil net 200 can flow along the oil net 200 to the lowest point on its rear side, and then easily flow into the oil cup 300.

[0041] Further, such as Figure 2As shown, the oil cup 300 extends below the end of the oil net 200 close to the rear plate assembly 120. When the oil moves to the end of the oil net 200 close to the rear plate assembly 120, it can directly drip into the oil cup 300, reducing oil overflow.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the oil cup 300 is at a height greater than the bottom of the side panel 130 , and the oil cup 300 does not protrude from the bottom of the smoke hood 100 , which has a better hiding effect on the oil cup 300 and makes the appearance of the entire smoke hood 100 more beautiful.

[0043] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front panel assembly 110 may include a front panel and a panel fixed on the front panel. The front side of the oil net 200 may be fixed on the panel. A lamp 111 may also be fixed on the panel to provide lighting, making it easier to use the range hood of this embodiment in an environment with poor lighting.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rear plate assembly 120 may include a rear plate, the cross-section of which may be an "L"-shaped structure, and the edge of its front end is provided with an upwardly extending flange, and the oil net 200 may be installed on the flange.

[0045] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a range hood, comprising a fume hood assembly with a built-in oil cup according to any of the above embodiments. For detailed description of the fume hood assembly with a built-in oil cup, reference may be made to the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0046] The terms and words used in the above description and claims are not limited to their literal meanings, but are merely used by the applicant to enable a clear and consistent understanding of the present invention. Therefore, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the above description of various embodiments of the present invention is provided for illustration only and is not intended to limit the present invention as defined in the appended claims and their equivalents.
