TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrical appliances, in particular to a range hood. BACKGROUND

[0002] The range hood is working by using the principle of fluid dynamics, and the oil fume is sucked by the fan assembly installed in the inner cavity of the range hood. There are panel opening and closing type range hoods on the market, which realize the opening and closing of the smoke suction port communicated with the inner cavity through the movement of the panel. When the smoke suction port is opened, the range hood can suck and exhaust the oil fume through the smoke suction port. In the related art, the panel opening and closing type range hood is relatively large in size, and it is easy to bring a sense of oppression to the user during use. SUMMARY

[0003] The main purpose of the present application is to provide a range hood, which aims to solve the technical problem that the existing panel opening and closing type range hood is relatively large in size and easy to bring a sense of oppression to the user during use.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the range hood provided by the present application comprises: a hood main body, a first cover plate, a first transmission member and a driving member, the hood main body has a first smoke suction port, and the first cover plate is arranged corresponding to the first smoke suction port; a first structure part and a second structure part are installed in the hood main body in a spaced manner, and the first transmission member comprises:

[0005] a first connecting rod having a first connecting part and a second connecting part arranged in a spaced manner;

[0006] a second connecting rod rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting part of the first connecting rod;

[0007] a third connecting rod rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting rod away from the first connecting part, and rotatably connected to the first structure part at the other end;

[0008] a fourth connecting rod rotatably connected to the second connecting part of the first connecting rod; and

[0009] a fifth connecting rod rotatably connected to one end of the fourth connecting rod away from the second connecting part, and rotatably connected to the second structure part at the other end, and the middle part of the fifth connecting rod is further rotatably connected to the middle part of the second connecting rod;

[0010] Wherein, the first connecting rod is connected to the first cover plate, and the third connecting rod is connected to the first structure part at the position connected with the driving member or the fifth connecting rod is connected to the second structure part at the position connected with the driving member, so that under the driving of the driving member, the first cover plate is switched between a first position and a second position, the first cover plate closes the first smoke suction port in the first position, and the first cover plate opens the first smoke suction port in the second position.

[0011] In the technical scheme, the first transmission member is in a six-link structure, and the oil fume exhauster can be designed to be small. Specifically, if the third link is connected to the first structure part and the driving member, when the first cover plate is switched from the first position to the second position, the third link will drive the second link to move away from the first smoke inlet, and the fourth link will also move away from the fifth link. That is, when the first cover plate is switched from the first position to the second position, the first and second connecting parts of the first link connected to the first cover plate will move away from the first smoke inlet. In this way, the first cover plate can move outward without being hindered by the shell of the main body of the oil fume exhauster. Even if the inner plate of the first cover plate is attached to the opening end of the first smoke inlet in the first position, the first cover plate can still be opened smoothly, and the structural compactness of the oil fume exhauster can be improved.

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0031] It should be noted that all directionality indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement condition, etc. between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings), and if the specific posture changes, the directionality indications will also change accordingly.

[0032] In addition, the descriptions such as "first", "second" and the like in the present application are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance of the technical features or implicitly indicating the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited.

[0033] In the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixing" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, "fixing" can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integral; can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection; can be direct connection, or indirect connection through intermediate medium; can be internal communication of two elements or interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise explicitly limited. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0034] In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that a person skilled in the art can realize it, when the combination of technical solutions appears contradictory or unachievable, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist, nor within the protection scope required by the present application.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiments of the present application provide an oil fume exhaust machine 1, which comprises a fume exhaust machine body 11, specifically, the fume exhaust machine body 11 comprises a shell 111 and a fan assembly 112. The shell 111 is formed with an inner cavity 113 and a first smoke suction port 114 communicating with the inner cavity 113, and the fan assembly 112 is located in the inner cavity 113 and used for generating negative pressure suction force, so that oil fume can be sucked into the inner cavity 113 through the first smoke suction port 114, and the kitchen will not be filled with oil fume, thereby improving the experience of users when cooking.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, the range hood 1 further comprises a first cover plate 12, a driving member 13 and a first transmission member 141. The first cover plate 12 is arranged corresponding to the first smoke suction port 114, and the first cover plate 12 has a first position and a second position. In the first position, the first cover plate 12 closes the first smoke suction port 114, and in the second position, the first cover plate 12 opens the first smoke suction port 114. The first transmission member 141 is connected to the driving member 13 and the first cover plate 12, and is used to drive the first cover plate 12 to switch between the first position and the second position under the driving of the driving member 13. For example, when the range hood 1 is idle, the first transmission member 141 can drive the first cover plate 12 to be in the first position to close the first smoke suction port 114 under the driving of the driving member 13, so as to avoid dust and the like from entering the inner cavity 113 of the shell 111 through the first smoke suction port 114, or to avoid the fan assembly 112 from being exposed to cause damage. When the range hood 1 is working, the first transmission member 141 can drive the first cover plate 12 to be in the second position to open the first smoke suction port 114 under the driving of the driving member 13, so that the oil fume can be sucked into the inner cavity 113 through the first smoke suction port 114 after the fan assembly 112 is started.

[0037] Optionally, the first transmission member 141 can be used to drive the first cover plate 12 to rotate relative to the opening end surface of the first smoke suction port 114 to close or open the first smoke suction port 114 when the driving member 13 drives the movement. That is, the first cover plate 12 realizes the opening and closing of the first smoke suction port 114 by turning over, and compared with the scheme of realizing the opening and closing of the first smoke suction port 114 by translating the first cover plate 12 along the direction perpendicular to the opening central axis of the first smoke suction port 114, the scheme can realize the miniaturization design of the range hood 1.

[0038] For example, the inner plate surface of the first cover plate 12 has a first boundary line 121 away from the cooktop plane p, and the first cover plate 12 can rotate substantially with the first boundary line 121 as the rotation axis to realize the opening and closing of the first smoke suction port 114. In this way, when the range hood 1 is installed above the cooktop plane p in use, the oil fume above the cooktop plane p in the second position can be blocked by the inner plate surface of the turned-over first cover plate 12 to enter the first smoke suction port 114, that is, the turned-over first cover plate 12 can guide the transmission of the oil fume, and can improve the smoke suction amount of the first smoke suction port 114 and improve the use effect of the range hood 1.

[0039] Optionally, the first transmission member 141 can be substantially a six-bar linkage mechanism to drive the rotation of the first cover plate 12. Specifically, please refer to Figure 5, the range hood 1 can include a first structure part 151 and a second structure part 152 which are mounted in the hood main body 11 and are spaced apart. The first transmission member 141 can include a first connecting rod 1411, a second connecting rod 1412, a third connecting rod 1413, a fourth connecting rod 1414, and a fifth connecting rod 1415, the first connecting rod 1411 having a first connecting portion 1431 and a second connecting portion 1432 which are spaced apart; one end of the second connecting rod 1412 is rotationally connected with the first connecting portion 1431 of the first connecting rod 1411, and the other end is rotationally connected with one end of the third connecting rod 1413, and the other end of the third connecting rod 1413 is rotationally connected with the first structure part 151. One end of the fourth connecting rod 1414 is rotationally connected with the second connecting portion 1432 of the first connecting rod 1411, and the other end is rotationally connected with one end of the fifth connecting rod 1415, and the other end of the fifth connecting rod 1415 is rotationally connected with the second structure part 152, and the middle part of the fifth connecting rod 1415 is further rotationally connected with the middle part of the second connecting rod 1412.

[0040] The first connecting rod 1411 is connected with the first cover plate 12, and the third connecting rod 1413 is connected with the drive member 13 at the first structure part 151 or the fifth connecting rod 1415 is connected with the drive member 13 at the second structure part 152, so that under the driving of the drive member 13, the first cover plate 12 is switched between the first position and the second position.

[0041] If the third connecting rod 1413 is connected with the drive member 13 at the first structure part 151 as an example, when the first cover plate 12 is switched from the first position to the second position, under the driving of the drive member 13, the third connecting rod 1413 will not only drive the second connecting rod 1412 to move away from one end of the third connecting rod 1413 to the outside of the first smoke inlet 114, but also drive the fourth connecting rod 1414 to move away from one end of the fifth connecting rod 1415 to the outside of the first smoke inlet 114. That is, when the first cover plate 12 is switched from the first position to the second position, under the driving of the drive member 13, the first connecting portion 1431 and the second connecting portion 1432 of the first connecting rod 1411 connected with the first cover plate 12 will both move towards the outside of the first smoke inlet 114, so that the first cover plate 12 can not be easily hindered by the shell 111 of the hood main body 11 during the outward movement, that is, even if the inner plate surface of the first cover plate 12 is attached to the opening end surface of the first smoke inlet 114 in the first position, the first cover plate 12 can also be smoothly opened, and the structural compactness of the range hood 1 can be improved.

[0042] The first connecting rod 1411 connected with the first cover plate 12 can be that the first connecting rod 1411 is attached to the first cover plate 12 and connected by screws or the like. The third connecting rod 1413 connected with the first structure part 151 or the fifth connecting rod 1415 connected with the second structure part 152 can be fixedly connected with the output shaft of the driving member 13, so as to be able to rotate under the driving of the output shaft of the driving member 13. In the embodiment of the application, the third connecting rod 1413 connected with the first structure part 151 is fixedly connected with the output shaft of the driving member 13.

[0043] Optionally, the fifth connecting rod 1415 has a first surface 14151 facing the second connecting rod 1412, and the second connecting rod 1412 and the fourth connecting rod 1414 can be located on one side of the first surface 14151 of the fifth connecting rod 1415. Optionally, the second connecting rod 1412 has a second surface (not shown in the figure) facing the fifth connecting rod 1415, and the fifth connecting rod 1415 and the third connecting rod 1413 can be located on one side of the second surface of the second connecting rod 1412. So that the second connecting rod 1412, the third connecting rod 1413, the fourth connecting rod 1414 and the fifth connecting rod 1415 are relatively compact in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 14151, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the first transmission member 141.

[0044] Optionally, the first transmission member 141 can further include a baffle 1416, which can be located on the side of the second surface of the second connecting rod 1412 and connected with the first connecting rod 1411. By arranging the fifth connecting rod 1415 and the baffle 1416 on one side, when assembling the range hood 1, the side where the baffle 1416 and the fifth connecting rod 1415 are located can be arranged towards the outside of the range hood 1, so that the second connecting rod 1412 and the fourth connecting rod 1414 are located on the inside and can be shielded by the baffle 1416, and the structure is more beautiful.

[0045] Optionally, the thickness of the fifth connecting rod 1415 and the thickness of the baffle 1416 can be substantially equal. The thickness of the second connecting rod 1412 and the thickness of the fourth connecting rod 1414 can be substantially equal, so that the thickness of the first transmission member 141 is relatively thin and the structure is relatively neat and compact. The thickness of the fifth connecting rod 1415 can be the thickness dimension in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 14151, and the thickness of the baffle 1416, the thickness of the second connecting rod 1412, the thickness of the third connecting rod 1413 and the thickness of the fourth connecting rod 1414 can be the thickness dimensions in the direction perpendicular to the first surface 14151, respectively.

[0046] Further optionally, the baffle 1416 can be provided with a first opening 14161, and the fifth connecting rod 1415 is connected to the fourth connecting rod 1414 at one end and extends to the first opening 14161. The fifth connecting rod 1415 extends to the first opening 14161 of the baffle 1416, which can reduce the gap between the baffle 1416 and the fifth connecting rod 1415 when the first cover plate 12 is opened, avoid the pinch phenomenon, improve the safety of the range hood 1, and also have certain aesthetic properties.

[0047] Optionally, the first connecting portion 1431 and the second connecting portion 1432 can be only part of the structure of the first connecting rod 1411. Specifically, part of the structure of the first connecting rod 1411 can be defined as the first connecting portion 1431, and part of the structure can be defined as the second connecting portion 1432, without the need to additionally provide the first connecting portion 1431 and the second connecting portion 1432, so as to simplify the structure of the range hood 1. Of course, the first connecting portion 1431 and / or the second connecting portion 1432 can also be structures different from the first connecting rod 1411, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0048] Optionally, the first structure 151 and the second structure 152 can be directly mounted on the shell 111 of the range hood main body 11 to achieve fixation in the range hood main body 11. At least one of the first structure 151 and the second structure 152 can also be mounted on the mounting bracket 15 in the range hood main body 11, and the driving member 13 can also be mounted on the mounting bracket 15.

[0049] Optionally, the first structure 151 and the second structure 152 can be only part of the structure of the mounting bracket 15. Specifically, part of the structure of the mounting bracket 15 can be defined as the first structure 151, and part of the structure can be defined as the second structure 152, without the need to additionally provide the first structure 151 and the second structure 152, so as to simplify the structure of the range hood 1. Of course, the first structure 151 and / or the second structure 152 can also be structures different from the mounting bracket 15, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0050] Optionally, the mounting bracket 15 can be provided with a limiting structure 153, which can be used to limit the movement of the first cover plate 12 to the second position, so that the first cover plate 12 is more accurately opened to the second position.

[0051] Optionally, the limiting structure 153 can be a folded edge. That is, the limiting structure 153 is formed by folding a part of the mounting frame 15. The limiting structure 153 can be arranged corresponding to the third connecting rod 1413 and / or the fifth connecting rod 1415. Optionally, a clamping protrusion can be arranged on the third connecting rod 1413 and / or the fifth connecting rod 1415, and when the clamping protrusion moves to abut against the limiting structure 153, it indicates that the first cover plate 12 moves to the second position. In the embodiment of the present application, the limiting structure 153 is arranged corresponding to the third connecting rod 1413, and the third connecting rod 1413 is provided with a clamping protrusion 14131, and when the clamping protrusion 14131 moves to abut against the limiting structure 153, it indicates that the first cover plate 12 moves to the second position.

[0052] Optionally, in the edge of the inner plate surface of the first cover plate 12, when the part of the edge close to the cooking table plane p contacts the opening end surface of the first smoke suction port 114, it indicates that the first cover plate 12 moves to the first position.

[0053] Please refer again to Figures 1 to 4 The housing 111 can also be formed with a second smoke suction port 115 communicating with the inner cavity 113, and the range hood 1 can further include a second cover plate 16 and a second transmission member 142. The second cover plate 16 is arranged corresponding to the second smoke suction port 115, and the second cover plate 16 has a third position and a fourth position. In the third position, the second cover plate 16 closes the second smoke suction port 115, and in the fourth position, the second cover plate 16 opens the second smoke suction port 115.

[0054] Optionally, when the second cover plate 16 is in the third position, the first cover plate 12 is in the first position, and when the second cover plate 16 is in the fourth position, the first cover plate 12 is in the second position. So that when the first cover plate 12 closes the first smoke suction port 114, the second cover plate 16 closes the second smoke suction port 115, and when the first cover plate 12 opens the first smoke suction port 114, the second cover plate 16 opens the second smoke suction port 115.

[0055] It should be noted that when the second cover plate 16 is in the third position, the first cover plate 12 can also be in the second position, and when the second cover plate 16 is in the fourth position, the first cover plate 12 can be in the first position. So that the opening of the first cover plate 12 and the second cover plate 16 is not synchronized, and the opening of the first smoke suction port 114 or the opening of the second smoke suction port 115 can be flexibly adjusted according to specific needs.

[0056] The second transmission member 142 connects the driving member 13 and the second cover plate 16, and is used to switch the second cover plate 16 between the third position and the fourth position under the driving of the driving member 13.

[0057] Optionally, the second driving member 142 can be used to drive the second cover plate 16 to move in a direction perpendicular to the opening central axis of the second smoking port 115 when the driving member 13 is driven to move, so as to close or open the second smoking port 115. Optionally, in use, the second cover plate 16 can be arranged close to the cooktop plane p, and the first cover plate 12 can be arranged on a side of the second cover plate 16 away from the cooktop plane p, at this time, the second cover plate 16 can be moved towards the first cover plate 12 to open the second smoking port 115, and be moved away from the first cover plate 12 to close the second smoking port 115.

[0058] It should be noted that the first smoking port 114 and the second smoking port 115 can be independent of each other, that is, the first smoking port 114 and the second smoking port 115 are not communicated. The first smoking port 114 and the second smoking port 115 can also be communicated to form a through hole, and part of the through hole is defined as the first smoking port 114 and part of the through hole is defined as the second smoking port 115. When the first smoking port 114 and the second smoking port 115 are communicated to form a through hole, if the first driving member 141 drives the first cover plate 12 to rotate substantially with the first boundary line 121 as the rotation axis, and the second driving member 142 drives the second cover plate 16 to move towards the first cover plate 12, at this time, the area of the through hole exposed on the side of the second cover plate 16 close to the first cover plate 12 can be defined as the first smoking port 114, and the area of the through hole exposed on the side of the second cover plate 16 away from the first cover plate 12 can be defined as the second smoking port 115.

That is, the sliding block 1425 and the second plate body 1427 are both arranged at one side of the third plate surface 1428 of the first plate body 1426. In this way, the size of the sliding part 1422 in the direction perpendicular to the third plate surface 1428 can be reduced, and the structural compactness of the sliding part 1422 can be improved.

The sliding part 1422 is connected to the mounting frame 15 through the elastic member 17. In this way, the gravity of the second cover plate 16 and the second transmission member 142 can be transmitted to the mounting frame 15 through the elastic member 17, which can reduce the force required by the driving member 13 to maintain the balance of the second cover plate 16, and further a small-size and low-cost driving member 13 can be selected. Optionally, the elastic member 17 can be distributed in the vertical direction to maximize the offset of the gravity of the second cover plate 16 and reduce the use cost of the driving member 13.

The connecting plate 182 is connected between the first mesh plate 181 and the first cover plate 12, and forms a smoke guide cavity 183 with the first mesh plate 181 and the first cover plate 12. The smoke guide cavity 183 is in communication with the inner cavity 113 of the range hood body 11. When the first cover plate 12 is in the first position, the first mesh plate 181 is located in the range hood body 11.

In the second position, the first smoke suction port 114 is communicated with the outside through the mesh holes 1811 of the first mesh plate 181. Since the first mesh plate 181 is connected to the hood main body 11, when the first cover plate 12 switches between the first position and the second position, the first mesh plate 181 will not move with the first cover plate 12, which can reduce the driving force requirement of the driving member 13, and then a small size and low cost driving member 13 can be selected. Moreover, since the first mesh plate 181 is directly connected to the hood main body 11, the structural stability of the first mesh plate 181 after long-term use can be ensured, and falling off and scratching can be avoided.
