Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of integrated stove technology, and in particular to a quick-reversing straight-ventilation air duct structure for integrated stoves. Background Technology

[0002] Integrated cooktops are a crucial component of integrated kitchens. Currently, the air outlets of the volute-type centrifugal fans inside the negative pressure boxes of integrated cooktops on the market are inserted downwards into horizontally placed ducts. This forces the flowing fumes to make a 90-degree turn before being discharged horizontally, creating turbulence and airflow opposition with the duct plug at the other end of the duct. This results in poor smoke extraction and increased noise. Furthermore, while the installation position of the volute-type centrifugal fan remains unchanged when the exhaust outlet direction is changed, the fan's outlet is not centered within the duct, leading to differences in smoke extraction performance between the left and right sides, which can negatively impact the user experience. Therefore, improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing integrated stoves, such as poor smoke extraction, high noise levels, and differences in smoke extraction performance between the left and right directions, by providing a new integrated stove with a quick-reversing straight-exhaust duct structure.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An integrated stove with a quick-reversing direct-exhaust duct structure includes a main frame assembly and a negative pressure box assembly. A volute-type centrifugal fan assembly is installed inside the negative pressure box assembly. The negative pressure box assembly is fixed within the main frame assembly, and the volute-type centrifugal fan assembly is slot-connected to the negative pressure box assembly. The air outlet of the volute-type centrifugal fan assembly is horizontal. An exhaust pipe assembly is detachably connected to the lower left or right side of the negative pressure box assembly, and the air outlet of the volute-type centrifugal fan assembly communicates with the exhaust pipe assembly.

[0006] The main frame assembly supports and fixes the negative pressure box assembly. The negative pressure box assembly is used for smoke exhaust via negative pressure. The volute-type centrifugal fan assembly performs the smoke exhaust function and connects to the negative pressure box assembly via a slot, allowing for quick disassembly and relocation of the air outlet direction. The volute-type centrifugal fan assembly has a horizontal air outlet direction, enabling direct exhaust of fumes, avoiding bends and turbulence, resulting in smoother smoke exhaust and lower noise in the integrated stove. It also avoids differences in smoke exhaust performance between the left and right directions, further improving the user experience. The detachable connection of the exhaust pipe assembly facilitates quick reversal with the volute-type centrifugal fan assembly, improving convenience. Through the above design, this invention achieves quick air outlet reversal and direct smoke exhaust, resulting in smoother smoke exhaust, lower noise, and no difference in smoke exhaust performance between the left and right directions in the integrated stove.

[0007] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing direct exhaust duct structure described above, the volute centrifugal fan assembly includes a volute assembly, a spring locking assembly, and an insert flange. The spring locking assembly is fixed to the volute assembly, and the insert flange is riveted to the air outlet of the volute assembly.

[0008] The volute assembly is used for smoke extraction. The spring-locking assembly enables quick assembly and disassembly of the volute centrifugal fan assembly, improving ease of use. The insert flange ensures airtightness and also facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the volute centrifugal fan assembly.

[0009] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-ventilation duct structure described above, the volute assembly is provided with a fixed handle and an auxiliary handle, and the spring locking assembly is fixed to the fixed handle by punching and pulling out holes.

[0010] The fixed handle and auxiliary handle further improve the ease of assembly and disassembly of the volute centrifugal fan assembly. The fixed handle also serves to secure the volute assembly via a spring-loaded locking assembly. The spring-loaded locking assembly uses a punched and threaded connection, eliminating the need for screws and reducing material usage.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, in the aforementioned integrated stove quick-reversing straight-ventilation air duct structure, the negative pressure box assembly is further provided with an air duct base plate, and the air duct base plate is provided with an oil leakage structure, which is an eccentric structure.

[0012] The oil leakage structure is biased towards the front of the integrated stove, which shortens the length of the oil box and reduces product costs.

[0013] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-vent duct structure described above, an air outlet adapter assembly is provided on the left and right sides of the lower part of the negative pressure box assembly. The outer side of the air outlet adapter assembly is connected to the negative pressure box assembly through a flange, and the inner side of the air outlet adapter assembly is provided with a U-shaped slot, which is adapted to the air outlet of the volute centrifugal fan assembly.

[0014] The outlet adapter assembly facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the volute centrifugal fan assembly, ensuring airtightness and enabling faster reversing speeds. The U-shaped slot adapts to the insert flange, further enhancing convenience.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-ventilation air duct structure described above has a V-shaped guide structure provided on the U-shaped slot.

[0016] The V-shaped guide structure acts as a guide, making it easier to install the volute centrifugal fan assembly and improving convenience.

[0017] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-vent duct structure described above, the air outlet adapter assembly away from the air outlet of the volute centrifugal fan assembly is screwed with a locking buckle, the outer side of the air outlet adapter assembly is provided with an end cap assembly, and the inner side of the air outlet adapter assembly is also provided with a baffle plate, which is inserted into the U-shaped slot.

[0018] The locking and spring locking assembly allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the volute centrifugal fan assembly. The end cover assembly and baffle plate provide a sealing function, balancing airtightness and assembly / disassembly efficiency.

[0019] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-ventilation duct structure described above, the exhaust pipe assembly includes an aluminum foil exhaust pipe and an air outlet seat. The aluminum foil exhaust pipe is a telescopic flexible hose structure. The back of the air outlet seat is inserted into the aluminum foil exhaust pipe. An EVA foam pad is affixed to the inner wall of the aluminum foil exhaust pipe corresponding to the position of the air outlet seat. The aluminum foil exhaust pipe and the air outlet seat are locked together by a clamp.

[0020] The aluminum foil exhaust duct features a flexible, telescopic design, enabling direct-pull installation and easy storage, thus enhancing convenience. EVA foam padding improves airtightness and facilitates secure connection between the aluminum foil exhaust duct and the outlet mount. The aluminum foil exhaust duct and outlet mount are locked together using clamps, improving assembly and disassembly efficiency and ease of use.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment, the integrated stove with a quick-reversing straight-vent structure described above has an oil return structure at the bottom of the air outlet.

[0022] The oil return structure makes oil return from the air outlet easier, eliminating the need for a separate oil catcher and reducing material usage.

[0023] Preferably, in the integrated stove quick-reversing straight-ventilation air duct structure described above, the negative pressure box assembly is made of galvanized sheet metal and a tenon-and-mortise structure.

[0024] The negative pressure box assembly uses galvanized sheet metal and a tenon-and-mortise structure, abandoning the traditional cold-rolled sheet forming, spot welding, and powder coating processes, thus reducing the requirements for design and production, and reducing processing steps and costs.
