[0049] The present application provides a portable extractor hood. During operation of the portable extractor hood, an air inlet is defined as a front portion, and an air outlet is defined as a rear portion. As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 The portable extractor hood comprises a main body 100, a fan assembly 120 arranged inside the main body 100 and detachably connected to the main body 100, a filter device 160 arranged in front of the fan assembly 120 and snap-fitted with the main body 100, and a rear cover 400 arranged behind the fan assembly 120 and detachably connected to the main body 100. As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4 When the portable extractor hood is assembled, the filter device 160 is arranged at the air inlet. When the fan assembly 120 starts to work, the oil fume outside the portable extractor hood is sucked into the main body 100 through the air inlet, and passes through the filter device 160, the clean air filtered by the filter device 160 passes through the fan assembly 120 and is discharged from the air outlet at the rear cover 400 to purify the oil fume. The portable extractor hood provided by the present application can be easily disassembled and assembled to replace and clean the filter device 160, which is more user-friendly and convenient to use and carry.
[0050] Preferably, the fan assembly 120 comprises an axial fan with a size of 140x140x38mm. Further preferably, the maximum air flow of the fan assembly 120 can be 282CFM (479,12m 3 / hr), and the maximum air pressure can be 52mmH2O (509,95Pa).
[0051] Further, the filtering device 160 comprises a first filtering unit 200 and a second filtering unit 300. The first filtering unit 200 is arranged in front of the second filtering unit 300 and detachably connected to the second filtering unit. The second filtering unit 300 is arranged between the first filtering unit 200 and the fan assembly 120 and snap-fitted with the main body 100, so that the filtering device 160 is snap-fitted with the main body 100. When the fan assembly 120 starts to work, the oil fume outside the portable extractor hood is sucked into the main body 100 through the air inlet and successively passes through the first filtering unit 200 and the second filtering unit 300, the clean air filtered by the first filtering unit 200 and the second filtering unit 300 is discharged from the air outlet at the rear cover 400 to purify the oil fume. The first filtering unit 200 is configured to filter the oil droplets in the oil fume, and the second filtering unit 300 is configured to filter the solid particles in the oil fume. The oil fume can be purified by successively passing through the first filtering unit 200 and the second filtering unit 300. The portable extractor hood provided by the present application can be easily disassembled and assembled to replace and clean the first filtering unit 200 and the second filtering unit 300, which is more user-friendly and convenient to use and carry.
[0052] Since the first filtering unit 200 and the second filtering unit 300 are both arranged in front of the fan assembly 120, the oil fume can be thoroughly filtered before reaching the fan assembly 120. Specifically, since the first filtering unit 200 is configured to filter the oil droplets in the oil fume, the fan assembly 120 can remain clean for a long time and only needs to be cleaned less frequently. Since the second filtering unit 300 is configured to filter the solid particles in the oil fume, damage to the fan assembly 120 can be reduced, and thus the service life of the fan assembly 120 can be prolonged.
[0053] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the main body 100 is in the form of a tube, and an opening is arranged at each of the two end portions of the main body 100. An air passage is formed in the main body 100 to flow through. The opening of one of the two end portions of the main body 100 is the air inlet of the portable extractor hood, and the opening of the other of the two end portions of the main body 100 is the air outlet of the portable extractor hood. Optionally, the main body 100 is in the form of a cylinder, and the axial direction of the main body 100 is parallel to the horizontal plane. The base 110 is arranged vertically below the main body 100 to stably arrange the main body 100 and ensure that a certain height difference is formed between the main body 100 and the horizontal plane where the extractor hood is arranged. Optionally, the base 110 is in the form of a truncated cone. Optionally, as shown in Figure 4 , the counterweight 111 is arranged at the bottom of the base 110 to increase the stability of the portable extractor hood and avoid tilting due to the high center of gravity of the portable extractor hood. As shown inFigure 4 As shown, a partition 101 is arranged inside the main body 100, and the partition 101 is arranged vertically and in a grid shape to facilitate airflow. With the air inlet at the front and the air outlet at the rear, a fan assembly 120 is detachably connected to the partition 101, and the fan assembly 120 is arranged in front of the partition 101. Optionally, the partition 101 is provided with threaded holes, and the fan assembly 120 is fixed to the partition 101 by screws.
[0054] As in Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the main body 100 is further provided with a second snap-fit protrusion 102 and a third snap-fit protrusion 103. The second snap-fit protrusion 102 is arranged perpendicular to the inner wall of the main body 100, and a plurality of second snap-fit protrusions 102 are arranged on the inner wall of the main body 100 at equal intervals. The second snap-fit protrusion 102 cooperates with the second filter unit 300, so that the second filter unit 300 is detachably connected to the main body 100. The third snap-fit protrusion 103 is arranged perpendicular to the inner wall of the main body 100, and a plurality of third snap-fit protrusions 103 are arranged on the inner wall of the main body 100 at equal intervals. When the second filter unit 300 is engaged with the main body 100 through the second snap-fit protrusion 102, the top end of the third snap-fit protrusion 103 abuts against the second filter unit 300 to prevent the second filter unit 300 from vibrating in the main body 100, which makes the connection more stable and allows the filter device 160 to be stably engaged with the main body 100. Preferably, the second buckle protrusion 102 is a cylindrical buckle protrusion, and the third buckle protrusion 103 is a plate-shaped buckle protrusion extending in the axial direction of the main body 100.
[0055] As in Figure 4 As shown, with the air inlet at the front and the air outlet at the rear, the second filter unit 300 is arranged in front of the fan assembly 120, and the second filter unit is detachably connected to the main body 100. (As shown in...) Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown in FIG. 2, the second filter unit 300 includes a tray cover 310 and a second filter member 320 snap-fitted in the tray cover 310, the second filter member 320 being configured to filter solid particles in the oil fume. When the second filter unit 300 is connected to the main body 100, the tray cover 310 is arranged inside the main body 100. The tray cover 310 includes a grid tray and a tray cover sidewall 315 arranged at the edge of the grid tray and extending forward perpendicularly to the grid tray, the tray cover sidewall 315 cooperating with the inner wall of the main body 100. The outer side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with a second snap groove 312 in the circumferential direction, the second snap groove 312 being arranged correspondingly to the second snap protrusion 102 of the main body 100, so that the second filter unit 300 is snap-fitted with the main body 100, and thus the filter device 160 is snap-fitted with the main body 100. Preferably, the second snap groove 312 is arranged with an opening at the rear portion of the tray cover sidewall 315, the opening first extending a certain distance in the axial direction of the tray cover sidewall 315, and then extending in the circumferential direction of the tray cover sidewall 315 to form the second snap groove 312. Therefore, during assembly of the second filter unit 300, first, the opening of the second snap groove 312 cooperates with the second snap protrusion 102 to position the second filter unit 300. Then, the second filter unit 300 is pushed into the main body 100, and then the second snap groove 312 moves relative to the second snap protrusion 102 in the axial direction of the tray cover sidewall 315. Finally, by rotating the second filter unit 300, the second snap protrusion 102 is snap-fitted in the plurality of portions of the second snap groove 312 along the circumferential direction of the tray cover sidewall 315, so that the second filter unit 300 is snap-fitted with the main body 100, and thus the filter device 160 is snap-fitted with the main body 100. In addition, the inner side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with a third handle 313. The third handle 313 is a protruding block perpendicular to the tray cover sidewall 315. A user can conveniently push, pull, and rotate the tray cover 310 through the third handle 313 to assemble the second filter unit 300 with the main body 100, and disassemble the second filter unit 300 from the main body 100. Preferably, the inner side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with two third handles 313 arranged symmetrically, and a user can hold the two third handles 313 with both hands to assemble and disassemble the second filter unit 300. Disassembling the second filter unit 300 from the main body 100 is simple, and after the second filter unit 300 is disassembled, the fan assembly 120 can be exposed, which facilitates the user to disassemble and clean the second filter unit 300 and the fan assembly 120.
[0056] As shown in FIG. 2, the second filter unit 300 includes a tray cover 310 and a second filter member 320 snap-fitted in the tray cover 310, the second filter member 320 being configured to filter solid particles in the oil fume. When the second filter unit 300 is connected to the main body 100, the tray cover 310 is arranged inside the main body 100. The tray cover 310 includes a grid tray and a tray cover sidewall 315 arranged at the edge of the grid tray and extending forward perpendicularly to the grid tray, the tray cover sidewall 315 cooperating with the inner wall of the main body 100. The outer side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with a second snap groove 312 in the circumferential direction, the second snap groove 312 being arranged correspondingly to the second snap protrusion 102 of the main body 100, so that the second filter unit 300 is snap-fitted with the main body 100, and thus the filter device 160 is snap-fitted with the main body 100. Preferably, the second snap groove 312 is arranged with an opening at the rear portion of the tray cover sidewall 315, the opening first extending a certain distance in the axial direction of the tray cover sidewall 315, and then extending in the circumferential direction of the tray cover sidewall 315 to form the second snap groove 312. Therefore, during assembly of the second filter unit 300, first, the opening of the second snap groove 312 cooperates with the second snap protrusion 102 to position the second filter unit 300. Then, the second filter unit 300 is pushed into the main body 100, and then the second snap groove 312 moves relative to the second snap protrusion 102 in the axial direction of the tray cover sidewall 315. Finally, by rotating the second filter unit 300, the second snap protrusion 102 is snap-fitted in the plurality of portions of the second snap groove 312 along the circumferential direction of the tray cover sidewall 315, so that the second filter unit 300 is snap-fitted with the main body 100, and thus the filter device 160 is snap-fitted with the main body 100. In addition, the inner side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with a third handle 313. The third handle 313 is a protruding block perpendicular to the tray cover sidewall 315. A user can conveniently push, pull, and rotate the tray cover 310 through the third handle 313 to assemble the second filter unit 300 with the main body 100, and disassemble the second filter unit 300 from the main body 100. Preferably, the inner side of the tray cover sidewall 315 is arranged with two third handles 313 arranged symmetrically, and a user can hold the two third handles 313 with both hands to assemble and disassemble the second filter unit 300. Disassembling the second filter unit 300 from the main body 100 is simple, and after the second filter unit 300 is disassembled, the fan assembly 120 can be exposed, which facilitates the user to disassemble and clean the second filter unit 300 and the fan assembly 120. Figure 7As shown, a fourth snap-fit protrusion 314 is also arranged inside the tray cover 310 in front of the mesh tray of the tray cover 310, and the fourth snap-fit protrusion is a protrusion perpendicular to the side wall 315 of the tray cover, with a plurality of fourth snap-fit protrusions 314 arranged at equal intervals along the side wall 315 of the tray cover. (See figure...) Figure 8 As shown, the second filter element 320 is fixedly snapped into the tray cover 310 by the mesh tray and the fourth snap-fit protrusion 314. Preferably, the second filter element 320 is activated carbon filter cotton, which can effectively adsorb and purify solid particles in the fumes. Therefore, when the portable range hood is working, the fumes enter from the air inlet of the main body 100, pass through the second filter element 320, then through the mesh tray of the tray cover 310, through the fan assembly 120, and then exit from the air outlet of the main body 100. Since the second filter element 320 is fixedly snapped into the tray cover 310 by the fourth snap-fit protrusion 314, the user can directly remove the second filter element 320 by hand to clean or replace it, which is convenient for the user.
[0057] As in Figure 4 As shown, the second filter element 320 is arranged between the first filter unit 200 and the tray cover 310. To clean or replace the second filter element 320, the user only needs to remove the first filter unit 200 from the second filter unit 300 and remove it through the air inlet of the portable range hood. The second filter element 320 is then exposed and can be removed from the tray cover 310 and through the air inlet of the portable range hood. In this way, the user can easily remove the second filter element 320 without having to remove the tray cover 310 from the main body 100. That is, the user only needs to disassemble a minimal number of parts to clean or replace the second filter element 320.
[0058] In addition, such as in Figure 7 As shown, a second magnetic member 311 is disposed in front of the tray cover sidewall 315. The second magnetic member 311 is configured to cooperate with the first magnetic member 211 of the first filter unit 200, such that the first filter unit 200 is detachably connected to the second filter unit 300. Preferably, a plurality of second magnetic members 311 (e.g., three second magnetic members 311) are arranged at equal intervals in front of the tray cover sidewall 315 to increase the stability of the connection between the first filter unit 200 and the second filter unit 300.
[0059] As in Figure 4 As shown, the first filter unit 200 is arranged at the air outlet of the portable range hood and in front of the second filter unit 300. (As shown in...) Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown in FIG. 1, the first filter unit 200 includes a front cover 210, a buckle cover 230 detachably connected to the front cover 210, and a first filter member 220 buckled between the front cover 210 and the buckle cover 230 and configured to filter oil droplets in the oil fume. As shown in FIG. 1, the first filter unit 200 is detachably connected to the second filter unit 300 by the magnetic force between the first magnetic members 211 and the second magnetic members 311, so that the filter device 160 is assembled. Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 1, the front cover 210 is in the form of a horn shape, and the size of the front cover 210 matches the size of the air inlet. The first magnetic members 211 are fixedly arranged at the rear of the front cover 210, and the positions of the first magnetic members 211 on the front cover 210 correspond to the second magnetic members 311, for example, three first magnetic members 211 are correspondingly arranged. The first filter unit 200 is detachably connected to the second filter unit 300 by the magnetic force between the first magnetic members 211 and the second magnetic members 311, so that the filter device 160 is assembled. Alternatively, the first magnetic members 211 are magnets, and the second magnetic members 311 are iron sheets; or the first magnetic members 211 are iron sheets, and the second magnetic members 311 are magnets. The first filter unit 200 can be conveniently assembled and disassembled by the user through the magnetic connection, which facilitates the user to clean or replace the first filter unit 200.
[0060] The horn shape of the front cover 210 is beneficial to form a smooth air flow at the air inlet of the portable extractor hood. With the help of the buckle cover 230, the first filter member 220 can be accurately positioned at the narrower end of the front cover 210. Since the first filter unit 200 can be detached as a whole from the second filter unit 300, the first filter member 220 buckled between the front cover 210 and the buckle cover 230 can be better protected from damage such as deformation during the detachment process. In addition, since the user can hold the front cover 210 and / or the buckle cover 230 during the detachment process, the user does not have to directly touch the first filter member 220, which can be greasy after long-term use and thus is not pleasant to touch.
[0061] Preferably, the first filter member 220 is a metal mesh, which is effective in filtering oil droplets in the oil fume. The metal mesh also has the additional advantages of being durable and easy to clean. Preferably, the metal mesh is safe to use in a dishwasher. Also, the metal mesh as a solid material is particularly suitable for forming part of the appearance of the portable extractor hood. For example, the metal mesh can be a stainless steel mesh or an aluminum mesh. Preferably, the metal mesh comprises three layers of mesh. Preferably, the mesh sizes of the three layers of mesh are different. Preferably, the top and bottom layers of mesh in the three layers of mesh have the same mesh size, which is different from the mesh size of the middle layer of mesh. This configuration helps to improve the ability to filter oil droplets in the oil fume. For example, the three layers of mesh can be a top layer of mesh with a mesh size of 1 mm, a middle layer of mesh with a mesh size of 1.5 mm, and a bottom layer of mesh with a mesh size of 1 mm. More preferably, the combined three layers of mesh are held together by a metal rim, which surrounds the edges of the multiple layers of mesh. For example, the metal rim can be an aluminum rim.
[0062] In addition, as shown in Figure 10 , the first handle 213 is arranged in front of the front cover 210, and the first filter unit 200 can be detached from the second filter unit 300 by the user through the first handle 213, which is easy and convenient. Preferably, the first handle 213 is arranged correspondingly to the first magnetic member 211. Therefore, when the first filter unit 200 is assembled by the user, the first magnetic member 211 can cooperate with the second magnetic member 311 only by cooperating the first handle 213 with the second magnetic member 311, so that the first filter unit 200 is assembled, which is convenient for the user to operate and easy to use.
[0063] As shown in Figure 9 , the side wall of the front cover 210 is arranged with a first snap groove 212, and the first snap groove 212 is arranged with an opening at the rear portion of the front cover 210. The opening first extends a certain distance in the axial direction of the front cover 210, and then extends in the circumferential direction of the front cover 210 to form the first snap groove 212. The first snap groove 212 cooperates with the snap cover 230, so that the snap cover 230 is detachably connected to the front cover 210, and thus the first filter member is snap-fitted between the snap cover 230 and the front cover 210. Preferably, a plurality of first snap grooves 212 are arranged on the side wall of the front cover 210 at the same interval.
[0064] As shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown in FIG. 2, the buckle cover 230 is disposed behind the front cover 210 and detachably connected to the front cover 210. The buckle cover 230 is in the form of a ring shape, and an inner wall of the buckle cover 230 is disposed with a first buckle protrusion 231 which is perpendicular to the inner wall of the buckle cover 230, and the position of the first buckle protrusion 231 on the buckle cover 230 corresponds to the first buckle groove 212. Preferably, the first buckle protrusion 231 is a cylindrical buckle protrusion. When assembling the first filter unit 200, the first filter member 220 is first disposed between the front cover 210 and the buckle cover 230, and then the first buckle protrusion 231 of the buckle cover 230 is fitted with the opening of the first buckle groove 212 of the front cover 210 to position the buckle cover 230 and the front cover 210. Thereafter, the buckle cover 230 is pushed and rotated so that the first buckle protrusion 231 moves along the first buckle groove 212, and finally, the first buckle protrusion 231 is buckled in a portion of the first buckle groove 212 along the circumferential direction of the sidewall of the front cover 210, so that the buckle cover 230 is buckled with the front cover 210, and the first filter member 220 is buckled between the buckle cover 230 and the front cover 210. Therefore, when the first filter member 220 needs to be replaced or cleaned by the user, the first filter unit 200 can be disassembled only by rotating and pulling the buckle cover 230 in the opposite direction, and the first filter member 220 can be taken out for cleaning and replacement, which is simple and fast in operation.
[0065] Further, as shown in Figure 10 the outer side of the buckle cover 230 is disposed with a second handle 232.

The user can conveniently push, pull, and rotate the buckle cover 230 through the second handle 232, so that the buckle cover 230 is assembled with and disassembled from the front cover 210. Preferably, a plurality of second handles 232 are disposed on the outer wall of the buckle cover 230 at the same interval, and the user can grasp the second handle 232 at any posture or angle to assemble the first filter unit 200, which is convenient and simple in operation.
[0066] Furthermore, the first filter element 220 is an oil filter screen, and it snaps into place between the front cover 210 and the snap-on cover 230. The first filter element 220 is configured to adsorb oil droplets in the fumes and effectively remove oil from the fumes to purify them. Therefore, when the portable range hood is working, the fumes enter from the air inlet of the main body 100, pass through the front cover 210, then through the first filter element 220 to remove oil droplets, then through the snap-on cover 230 into the second filter unit 300 to remove solid particles, then through the fan assembly 120 and out from the air outlet of the main body 100 to purify the fumes. Since the first filter element 220 snaps into place between the front cover 210 and the snap-on cover 230, and the front cover 210 and the snap-on cover 230 can be assembled and disassembled by rotating, pushing, and pulling, the first filter element 220 can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement, which is convenient and easy to use.
[0067] As in Figure 3 As shown, a rear cover 400 is also arranged at the air outlet of the portable range hood. The rear cover 400 is in the form of a mesh and is detachably connected to the main body 100. (As shown in...) Figure 11 As shown, a third magnetic member 410 is arranged on the side of the rear cover 400 facing the body 100, such that the rear cover 400 is detachably connected to the body 100. Preferably, a plurality of third magnetic members 410 are arranged on the rear cover 400 at equal intervals, for example, three third magnetic members 410 are arranged to improve the stability of the connection between the rear cover 400 and the body 100. Figure 6 As shown, a fourth magnetic member 104 is fixedly arranged at the air outlet at the rear of the main body 100. The position of the fourth magnetic member 104 on the main body 100 corresponds to the position of the third magnetic member 410 on the rear cover 400; for example, three fourth magnetic members 104 are arranged correspondingly. Optionally, the third magnetic member 410 is a magnet, and the fourth magnetic member 104 is an iron sheet; or the third magnetic member 410 is an iron sheet, and the fourth magnetic member 104 is a magnet. The rear cover 400 is detachably connected to the main body 100 by the magnetic force between the third magnetic member 410 and the fourth magnetic member 104. Furthermore, the rear cover 400 is provided with a fourth handle 420, which allows the user to easily and conveniently remove the rear cover 400 from the main body 100. Preferably, the fourth handle 420 corresponds to the third magnetic member 410, such that when the back cover 400 is assembled by the user, the third magnetic member 410 can engage with the fourth magnetic member 104 simply by engaging the fourth handle 420 with the fourth magnetic member 104, thus assembling the back cover 400, which is convenient for user operation and easy to use.
[0068] As in Figure 3As shown in FIG. 4, the back cover 400 is in the form of a circular grid divided into a plurality of sectors by radial rods, each of the sectors including a set of straight parallel rods, wherein the sets of straight parallel rods extend in four different directions. Alternatively, the sets of straight parallel rods can extend in more than four different directions. This grid pattern even further enhances the axial air flow at the back of the range hood. In contrast, a grid with parallel rods extending in a single direction can result in uneven air flow at the back of the range hood. Thus, a portion of the cooking fumes can be directed to the back of the range hood without passing through the air inlet of the range hood.
