Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of automatic cleaning of range hoods, and in particular to a range hood that can be automatically cleaned. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the automatic cleaning of range hoods is mainly divided into internal cleaning and external cleaning. Since the range hood is long-term above the stove top which is the key area of oil fume, the most part that needs to be frequently cleaned is the front end face of the outer wall of the range hood. And in the current range hood cleaning equipment, additional redundant power structures, such as motors or electric push rods and other devices, are required to drive the brush to refresh the front end face. First of all, in terms of operation, multiple buttons are needed to achieve. For example, first open the panel for the flue gas to enter on the front end face of the range hood, and then start the cleaning equipment to brush the inside. It is rather troublesome for users. Secondly, the current brushing effect is very simple. It is also necessary for users to actively add water to the brush part to improve the brushing effect. And the brush cannot rotate, the function is simple and the operation is very cumbersome. Users still choose to brush manually. Therefore, the current equipment does not solve the actual usage requirements of users.
[0003] Therefore, we propose a range hood that can be automatically cleaned to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a range hood that can be automatically cleaned to solve the problems raised in the above background art. The technical solution of the present invention provides a solution significantly different from the prior art for the technical problem that the prior art solutions are too single.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] An oil fume extractor that can be automatically cleaned, comprising an outer frame of the oil fume extractor. At the bottom of the inner wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor, an oil sump is installed through a slot. On one side of the inner wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor, a first rack is slidably connected through a slot. On one side of the first rack, a cleaning cotton roller is connected through a connecting rod. On the left and right sides of the cleaning cotton roller, first gears are installed. On one side of the outer wall of the first rack, a second gear is meshed and connected. On the other side of the first rack, a third gear is meshed and connected. A limiting ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. On one side of the outer wall of the third gear, a sliding rod is rotatably connected through a bearing. A hydraulic push rod is installed on the inner wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. The telescopic end of the hydraulic push rod is connected to a second rack. On one side of the outer wall of the second rack, a sliding groove is opened. The sliding groove and the sliding rod form a sliding connection. On one side of the outer wall of the second rack, a fourth gear is meshed and connected. On one side of the fourth gear, a gas shielding plate is installed. A wind wheel is installed on the inner wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. An oil outlet pipeline is installed on the outer wall of the wind wheel. At the top of the oil outlet pipeline, an air outlet fan is installed. The shaft end of the second gear is connected to a reciprocating lead screw through an opening. A connecting sleeve is connected to the outer wall of the reciprocating lead screw. On one side of the outer wall of the connecting sleeve, a push rod is fixedly connected. The push rod, on one side of the outer wall of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor, a piston cylinder is installed. The side of the piston cylinder is movably connected to the push rod through an opening. One end of the push rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the piston cylinder through a connecting piston. An inlet liquid pipe and an outlet liquid pipe are respectively connected to the outer wall of the piston cylinder. A liquid storage tank is installed on the top of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor.
[0007] In a further embodiment, a third rack is fixedly connected to the front end face of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. The third rack is located on both sides of the gas shielding plate. The third rack is meshed and connected with the first gear.
[0008] In a further embodiment, the outlet liquid pipe is connected to the shaft end of the cleaning cotton roller through a hose. One end of the inlet liquid pipe is connected to the liquid storage tank through a hose. Check valves are installed on both the outlet liquid pipe and the inlet liquid pipe.
[0009] In a further embodiment, the first rack and the side connecting rod are fixedly connected. The connecting rod and the first gear are rotatably connected through a bearing.
[0010] In a further embodiment, the shaft end of the wind wheel is connected to a driving motor.
[0011] In a further embodiment, a display is installed on the front end face of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. A smoke outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the outer frame of the oil fume extractor. The smoke outlet pipe is located directly above the wind wheel.
[0012] In a further embodiment, the air outlet fan is located directly above the center of the oil outlet pipeline. The pipelines on the left and right sides of the oil outlet pipeline are perpendicular downward.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] This range hood uses a hydraulic push rod to horizontally push the second rack, which can regularly and continuously trigger the functions of the air baffle, the cleaning cotton roller, and the pumping and cleaning. The opening of the air baffle allows the front panel of the range hood to intake air, which is a normal usage function of a range hood. If the second rack is continuously pushed by the hydraulic push rod, it can further trigger the cleaning cotton roller to move upward along the front panel of the outer frame of the range hood, and can also further trigger the rotation of the second gear, thereby driving the reciprocating lead screw to rotate, pushing the push rod and the piston to reciprocate in the piston cylinder, and can perform a water injection operation on the inside of the cleaning cotton roller. In addition, the first gears on both the left and right sides of the cleaning cotton roller can also mesh with the third rack, enabling different surfaces of the cleaning cotton roller to contact the front end face of the range hood, achieving a better scrubbing effect. Compared with existing devices, on the basis of not changing the function that the front panel of the original range hood can be rotated and opened to allow flue gas to enter, this device can continuously trigger the corresponding cleaning structure, and can achieve it independently without adding other power sources. For users, they only need to extend the hydraulic push rod outward, which can be achieved by pressing a button, and the operation is very convenient. Description of the Drawings

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-6, in the present invention, an oil fume extractor capable of automatic cleaning includes an outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor. At the bottom of the inner wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor, an oil sump 2 is installed through a slot. On one side of the inner wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor, a first rack 3 is slidably connected through a slot. On one side of the first rack 3, a cleaning cotton roller 4 is connected through a connecting rod. On the left and right sides of the cleaning cotton roller 4, first gears 5 are installed. On one side of the outer wall of the first rack 3, a second gear 6 is meshed and connected. On the other side of the first rack 3, a third gear 7 is meshed and connected. A limiting ring 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor. On one side of the outer wall of the third gear 7, a sliding rod 9 is rotatably connected through a bearing. A hydraulic push rod 10 is installed on the inner wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor. The telescopic end of the hydraulic push rod 10 is connected to a second rack 1001. On one side of the outer wall of the second rack 1001, a sliding slot 11 is provided. The sliding slot 11 and the sliding rod 9 form a sliding connection. On one side of the outer wall of the second rack 1001, a fourth gear 12 is meshed and connected. On one side of the fourth gear 12, a gas shielding plate 13 is installed. A wind wheel 14 is installed on the inner wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor. An oil outlet pipeline 15 is installed on the outer wall of the wind wheel 14. At the top of the oil outlet pipeline 15, an oil outlet fan opening 16 is installed. The shaft end of the second gear 6 is connected to a reciprocating lead screw 17 through an opening. A connecting sleeve 18 is connected to the outer wall of the reciprocating lead screw 17. On one side of the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 18, a push rod 19 is fixedly connected. The push rod 19, on one side of the outer wall of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor, a piston cylinder 20 is installed. The side of the piston cylinder 20 is movably connected to the push rod 19 through an opening. One end of the push rod 19 forms a sliding connection with the inner wall of the piston cylinder 20 through a connecting piston. A liquid inlet pipe 21 and a liquid outlet pipe 22 are respectively connected to the outer wall of the piston cylinder 20. A liquid storage tank 24 is installed on the top of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor.
[0026] Embodiment 1
[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , in the embodiment of the present invention, for an oil fume extractor capable of automatic cleaning, a third rack 25 is fixedly connected to the front end face of the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor. The third rack 25 is located on both sides of the gas shielding plate 13. The third rack 25 is meshed and connected with the first gear 5. When the first gear 5 slides in the inclined plane direction, the first gear 5 can produce a meshing effect with the third rack 25. In this way, when the first gear 5 passes through the third rack 25, the first gear 5 itself can rotate, so that different surfaces of the cleaning cotton roller 4 contact the outer frame 1 of the oil fume extractor and produce an inclined effect.
[0028] The liquid outlet pipe 22 is connected to the shaft end of the cleaning cotton roller 4 through a hose. One end of the liquid inlet pipe 21 is connected to the liquid storage tank 24 through a hose. Check valves are installed on both the liquid outlet pipe 22 and the liquid inlet pipe 21. Check valves are installed on both the liquid outlet pipe 22 and the liquid inlet pipe 21 at the same time. The liquid inlet pipe 21 can only let in liquid and cannot let out liquid, while the liquid outlet pipe 22 can only let out liquid and cannot let in liquid.
[0029] A display 26 is installed on the front end surface of the range hood outer frame 1, and a smoke outlet pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the range hood outer frame 1. The smoke outlet pipe 23 is located directly above the wind wheel 14. The display 26 can facilitate users to perform specific operations on the device. After the smoke is sucked into the wind wheel 14, it is finally discharged outward through the position of the smoke outlet pipe 23.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] See also Figures 1-6 , which is different from Example 1, is that the first rack 3 is fixedly connected to the side connecting rod, and the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the first gear 5 through a bearing. When the first rack 3 slides along the inclined surface of the range hood outer frame 1, it can drive the cleaning cotton roller 4 and the first gear 5 to slide along the inclined surface, so that the cleaning cotton roller 4 cleans the outer wall of the range hood outer frame 1.
[0032] The shaft end of the wind wheel 14 is connected to a driving motor, and the driving motor can drive the wind wheel 14 to rotate to suck smoke from the room into the interior of the range hood outer frame 1 .
[0033] Example 3
[0034] See also Figures 1-6 , which is different from Example 1, is that: the fan outlet 16 is located just above the center of the oil outlet pipeline 15, and the pipes on the left and right sides of the oil outlet pipeline 15 are vertically downward. The oil outlet pipeline 15 mainly collects the thrown oil, and the fan outlet 16 can discharge the smoke to the outside without any obstruction. However, due to the centrifugal force of the wind wheel 14, the oil is likely to remain on the inner wall of the oil outlet pipeline 15, and the oil slowly slides to the bottom and finally drips into the inside of the oil tank 2.
[0035] The working principle of the present invention is:
[0036] The user first starts the hydraulic push rod 10. Since the hydraulic push rod 10 will push the second rack 1001 obliquely downward, during the process of the second rack 1001 being pushed horizontally, because the third gear 7 meshes with the second rack 1001, and initially the third gear 7 does not mesh with the first rack 3, because a certain section of the first rack 3 has no teeth, so the second rack 1001 will drive the third gear 7 to move horizontally together until the two ends of the shaft of the third gear 7 contact the limit ring 8. The limit ring 8 can prevent the third gear 7 from sliding horizontally. At this time, the third gear 7 also meshes with the first rack 3. Before the third gear 7 is locked, the second rack 1001 being pushed horizontally will only drive the fourth gear 12 to rotate through meshing, so that the air baffle 13 rotates, opening the air inlet channel at the front end of the outer frame 1 of the range hood, so that gas can enter normally. At this time, it is the state where the user can normally use the range hood. Only by driving the wind wheel 14 to rotate can the flue gas be absorbed and exhausted. If the outer frame 1 of the range hood needs to be cleaned, it is necessary to continue to let the hydraulic push rod 10 push the second rack 1001 to slide horizontally. Since the third gear 7 is completely restricted by the limit ring 8, the third gear 7 will slide relative to the sliding rod 9 and the sliding groove 11. Since the rotation of the third gear 7 can drive the first rack 3 to move horizontally, the cleaning cotton roller 4 and the first gear 5 are driven by the connecting rod to slide horizontally along the front end face of the outer frame 1 of the range hood together. The first gear 5 can wipe and clean the front end face of the outer frame 1 of the range hood. When the first gear 5 contacts the third rack 25, it will drive the cleaning cotton roller 4 and the first gear 5 to rotate, so that different surfaces of the cleaning cotton roller 4 contact the front end face of the outer frame 1 of the range hood. In this way, not only one surface will always contact the outer frame 1 of the range hood during cleaning. And at the same time, during the rotation of the second gear 6, it can drive the reciprocating lead screw 17 to rotate. The reciprocating lead screw 17 can push the connecting sleeve 18 to move left and right reciprocally, so as to push the push rod 19 to slide reciprocally in the piston cylinder 20. Such reciprocating sliding can make the piston inside slide left and right reciprocally, draw liquid from the inside of the liquid storage tank 24 through the liquid inlet pipe 21, and then push the liquid out of the piston cylinder 20. The liquid inlet pipe 21 can only let in liquid and cannot let out liquid, while the liquid outlet pipe 22 can only let out liquid and cannot let in liquid. The liquid is flushed to the position of the cleaning cotton roller 4, so as to achieve a better scrubbing effect.
