[0054] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings.

[0055] Example

[0056] Since the existing desktop range hoods are relatively close to users during use, the noise generated by the range hoods without noise reduction design will affect the user's dining environment.

[0057] Therefore, the present application discloses an air purification structure, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The air purification structure includes a housing 10 and a first filter unit 20 , a second filter unit 30 and an air induction unit 40 installed in the housing 10 .

[0058] Specifically, the housing 10 includes a front housing 11, a middle housing 12 and a rear housing 13 which are snap-connected in sequence, that is, the middle housing 12 is separated between the front housing 11 and the rear housing 13, and the housing 10 also includes a bottom housing 14 which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front housing 11. The front housing 11 is a side plate, and an air inlet 15 is provided on the front housing 11, and an air outlet 16 is enclosed by the middle housing 12 and the rear housing 13. The first filter unit 20 is installed at the position of the air inlet 15, the second filter unit 30 is installed at the position of the air outlet 16, and the air induction unit 40 is separated between the middle housing 12 and the rear housing 13 by the middle housing 12. The first filter unit 20 is used to filter the air entering the housing 10 from the air inlet 15, the second filter unit 30 is used to filter the air discharged from the housing 10 to the outside, and the air induction unit 40 is used to introduce the air containing oil smoke from the outside into the housing 10 from the air inlet 15, and discharge the air in the housing 10 purified by the first filter unit 20 from the second filter unit 30 to the outside of the housing 10. After being filtered and purified by the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30, the air discharged to the outside basically does not contain oil smoke and odor.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present invention, the sound-generating air induction unit 40 is isolated between the middle shell 12 and the rear shell 13, so that the noise generated by the air induction unit 40 is isolated, thereby reducing the volume of the noise transmitted to the outside.

[0060] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first filter unit 20 includes a first fixed shell 21 and a flow stabilizing screen 22. The first fixed shell 21 is installed at the air inlet 15 of the front shell 11, and the shape of the first fixed shell 21 is adapted to the shape of the air inlet 15. The first fixed shell 21 is an annular fixed shell. The first fixed shell 21 includes a first part 211 and a second part 212, and the flow stabilizing screen 22 is clamped between the first part 211 and the second part 212.

[0061] In an embodiment of the present invention, the shape of the air inlet 15 can be circular, square, or polygonal.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present invention, the front shell 11, the first fixed shell 21 and the flow stabilizing filter 22 constitute a first noise reduction module. The area of ​​the air inlet 15 should not be less than half of the area of ​​the front shell 11 of the side panel. The larger air inlet 15 can effectively prevent the generation of eddy currents at the air intake end to cause high-frequency noise, while isolating the inside of the shell 10 from the outside world, thereby playing a sound insulation role. The flow stabilizing filter 22 evenly distributes the intake air flow to prevent aerodynamic noise caused by air flow turbulence. The first part 211 and the second part 212 cooperate to fix the flow stabilizing filter 22, reduce the shaking caused by the friction between the flow stabilizing filter 22 and the incoming airflow, and thus reduce the noise.

[0063] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first filter unit 20 also includes a first filter screen 23 and an oil collecting box 24. The first filter screen 23 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the middle shell 12. The oil collecting box 24 is installed below the first filter screen 23 and at the bottom of the inner wall of the middle shell 12.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, the middle shell 12, the first filter 23 and the oil collecting box 24 form a second noise reduction module. The main function of the first filter 23 is to filter and intercept oil fume particles, which has a certain effect of reducing wind speed and reducing aerodynamic noise. Sound-absorbing cotton is attached to the frame of the first filter 23 to ensure that the first filter 23 is tightly attached to the filter cavity placed on the middle shell 12, so that internal sound waves are difficult to be transmitted to the outside. The middle shell 12 is connected to the induced draft unit 40, the front first filter 23, the rear shell 13, and the bottom shell 14, and the various components are separated to reduce the sound waves generated by the motor 452 and the wind wheel 451 in the induced draft unit 40 from being transmitted to the outside of the middle shell 12. The main function of the oil collecting box 24 is to collect the oil intercepted by the first filter 23, and it also plays a role in fixing and limiting the first filter 23. The contact surface between the oil collecting box 24 and the middle shell 12 is provided with sound-absorbing cotton, which can reduce the sound waves and vibrations transmitted from the middle shell 12.

[0065] Preferably, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first filter screen 23 is a filter screen formed by composite folding of polymer materials, such as glass fiber, PP melt-blown, PET, PE, MOF and other materials.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, the second filter unit 30 includes a filter seat 31, a second fixed shell 32, a second filter screen 33 and a first grille 35. The filter seat 31 is installed between the middle shell 12 and the rear shell 13, and the filter seat 31 is installed on the upper part of the middle shell 12, the second fixed shell 32 is installed in the filter seat 31, the second filter screen 33 is installed in the second fixed shell 32, and the first grille 35 is installed on the top of the second filter screen 33, and the first grille 35 is flush with the top of the rear shell 13.

[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, the filter seat 31, the second fixed shell 32, the second filter screen 33 and the first grille 35 constitute a third noise reduction module. The filter seat 31 is used to connect the second filter screen 33 assembly and the air induction unit 40. The second fixed shell 32 is used to fix the filter screen to reduce the internal vibration between the second filter screen 33 and the filter seat 31. The contact between the second fixed shell 32 and the frame of the second filter screen 33 and the contact surface between the second fixed shell 32 and the filter seat 31 parallel to the air outlet direction are provided with sound-absorbing cotton to absorb internal noise and weaken the sound waves transmitted to the outside. The first grille 35 is a grille plate with a plurality of small holes evenly distributed, which is used to evenly distribute the air outlet and reduce aerodynamic noise.

[0068] Preferably, in one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 7 The second filter screen 33 includes a first layer 331 and a second layer 332, and the second layer 332 is arranged above the first layer 331. Figure 4-6 The second layer 332 is composed of a plurality of filter paper columns 34, which are annular prisms and are distributed in an array on the first layer 331. The upper openings of the filter paper columns 34 are sealed with glue, and the gaps at the lower openings of adjacent filter paper columns 34 are sealed with glue.

[0069] Specifically, a single-row prismatic filter paper column 34 is formed by folding two filter seats 31, that is, a piece of filter paper is folded into a "W" shape, or an "ω" shape, or other shapes, and then another piece of filter paper is glued to the upper opening of the folded filter paper to form a single-row filter paper column 34, and then multiple columns of filter paper columns 34 are bonded together to form the preliminary form of the second filter screen 33, and then the air outlet above the filter paper column 34 is sealed with glue, and the gap between the lower openings of the filter paper column 34 is sealed with glue to obtain the second filter paper in the present application.

[0070] Preferably, in one embodiment of the present invention, the filter paper is usually folded into a "W" shape to form a triangular prism-shaped filter paper column 34 to maintain the structural stability of the filter paper column 34 when air flows through it.

[0071] Combination Figure 5-Figure 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, after the air enters the housing 10, the air passes through the first filter unit 20 and then enters the second filter screen 33. The air first enters the first layer 331. The air entering the first layer 331 has a tendency to continue to move upward. Since the gaps between the lower openings of the adjacent filter paper columns 34 are sealed, the air can only enter the interior of the filter paper column 34 from the lower openings of the filter paper column 34, that is, Figure 7 As shown, the air passes through the first layer 331 and enters the second layer 332. Due to the top seal of the filter paper column 34, the air can only escape from the side of the filter paper column 34. A plurality of inverted "L"-shaped airflow channels are formed at the second filter screen 33, which increases the contact area and friction probability between the airflow and the second filter paper, and can increase the efficiency of the filter paper in removing pollutants in the airflow; at the same time, the plurality of airflow channels also make the airflow uniform, so that the airflow is laminar, avoids the airflow from entering a turbulent state, makes the airflow gentle, and further reduces noise.

[0072] Preferably, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first layer 331 is made of activated carbon, manganese sand, foamed carbon, carbon fiber, ceramic material, etc., and its main function is to adsorb and remove volatile organic pollutants and odors contained in the airflow.

[0073] Preferably, in one embodiment of the present invention, the second layer 332 is made of one or more composite folded materials such as non-woven fabrics, meltblown fabrics, carbon-containing fabrics, PET, carbon fibers, and MOF materials, mainly for deep removal of particulate pollutants in the airflow.

[0074] Preferably, in an embodiment of the present invention, the adhesive seal 36 is sealed using hot melt adhesive, AB adhesive, etc., so that the airflow flows in a directional manner and ensures that the airflow passes through the second layer 332 when it is discharged.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 3 The air induction unit 40 includes a front volute 41, a rear volute 44, and a fan 45 installed on the rear volute 44, wherein the front volute 41 is provided with an air inlet 46, and an air outlet 47 is formed between the front volute 41 and the rear volute 44. The air inlet 46 is arranged downstream of the first filter 23, and the air outlet 47 is arranged upstream of the second filter 33.

[0076] Specifically, the front volute 41 includes a third part 411 and a fourth part 412 , and the air inlet 46 is arranged on the third part 411 , wherein the third part 411 is used to cooperate with the rear volute 44 to close the fan 45 , and the fourth part 412 is used to gradually increase the cross-sectional area of ​​the exhaust port 47 .

[0077] like Figure 3As shown, the rear volute 44 is provided with a vertical side panel and an inclined side panel, and the inclined side panel cooperates with the vertical side panel to gradually increase the cross-sectional area of ​​the opening (exhaust port 47) of the rear volute 44.

[0078] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the third part 411 is fixedly connected to the fourth part 412, and the third part 411 is arranged below the fourth part 412. The fourth part 412 includes a first plate 4121, a second plate 4122 and a third plate 4123, wherein the first plate 4121 is a straight plate, which is adapted to the vertical side plate of the rear volute 44, and the straight plate is snap-connected to the side plate. The second plate 4122 is an inclined plate, which is adapted to the inclined side plate of the rear volute 44, and the second plate 4122 is snap-connected to the side plate.

[0079] In one embodiment of the present invention, the third plate body 4123 is a vertical plate, and the vertical third plate body 4123 is used to close the side of the exhaust port 47 at the rear volute 44 .

[0080] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, the fan 45 includes a wind wheel 451 and a motor 452. The wind wheel 451 is installed at the output end of the motor 452, and the motor 452 is installed on the inner wall of the rear volute 44. The front volute 41, the wind wheel 451, the motor 452, and the rear volute 44 constitute a fourth noise reduction module. The vertical plate on the upper part of the rear volute 44 extends to the front volute 41 to form an inclined surface, and the third plate body 4123 is an inclined plate. The inclined third plate body 4123 makes the cross-sectional area of ​​the exhaust port 47 further gradually increase along the air flow direction. When having a larger cross-sectional area and a certain air volume Q, the outlet wind speed can be reduced, and the noise caused by friction due to excessive outlet wind speed can be reduced.

[0081] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, a second grille 42 and fixed ribs 43 are provided on the third portion 411, wherein the second grille 42 is installed at the air inlet 46. The setting of the second grille 42 allows air to be evenly distributed, prevents the generation of vortices, and thereby avoids the generation of noise.

[0082] In one embodiment of the present invention, the second grille 42 also prevents the user from directly contacting the wind wheel 451 when replacing the first filter 23 .

[0083] The fixing rib 43 is arranged around the edge of the third part 411, and is used to separate the air inlet 46 from the first filter screen 23, so that a suitable distance is maintained between the first filter screen 23 and the air inlet 46. That is, it is ensured that the distance lp between the first filter screen 23 and the air inlet 46 is greater than K4 (K4 is the critical width for high-frequency noise, generally 6-12mm depending on the structure), so as to prevent the first filter screen 23 from being too close to the volute air inlet 46, which causes the air outlet interface of the first filter screen 23 to become smaller sharply after the air is discharged, increases the wind speed, and generates high-frequency noise by friction with the wall of the middle shell 12 and the second grille 42 of the volute.

[0084] In one embodiment of the present invention, the wind wheel 451 has an outer diameter of Dw, an inner diameter of Dn, a blade outer diameter height of Hw, a blade inner diameter height of Hn, an air inlet angle of θ, an air outlet angle of α, a blade spacing of L, and a blade number of Z to achieve optimal noise reduction performance.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present invention, the outer diameter of the wind wheel 451 needs to satisfy: Dw = (60 × Q) / (π × n ×

[0086] A), where Q is the design flow rate, n is the design speed, and A is the design cross-sectional area of ​​the air outlet 16;

[0087] In one embodiment of the present invention, the inner diameter of the wind wheel 451 satisfies: Dn=K1×Dw; wherein Dw is the outer diameter of the wind wheel 451; K1 is an empirical parameter, and different types of wind wheel 451, electrode types, and volute types are different;
