Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a range hood and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The current range hoods on the market are mainly designed to meet the needs of dual stoves. However, with the popularity of small kitchen appliances, the use of portable small appliances such as induction cookers and electric steamers is also increasing. The existing dual stove range hoods cannot collect the steam and fumes generated by these small appliances very well. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the positional relationship between the range hood and the stove is as follows: the stove 102 is located below the front air intake of the range hood 101, and the two stoves 102 almost occupy the entire air intake. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the working principle of the range hood is as follows: the air flows under the action of the fan, a relatively fast airflow and negative pressure are generated at the air inlet, and the air flows above the stove, such as Figure 2 As shown by the arrow, oil smoke or steam enters the range hood through the air intake port along with the air flow and is discharged under the action of the fan. The size of the air intake port determines the size and range of the air flow above the stove.

[0057] Example 1
[0058] This embodiment provides a range hood, see Figure 3The range hood comprises a main air duct 1 and at least one expandable air inlet structure 2. The expandable air inlet structure 2 comprises a telescopic air duct 21, a telescopic air duct top cover 22, a collar 23 and a support frame 24.
[0059] The expandable air inlet structure 2 is arranged on the side of the range hood. Figure 4 It is a structural schematic diagram of the expandable air suction port structure.

[0078] When the motor 41 is running, the gear structure 42 and the rack structure 43 drive the telescopic air duct 21 to perform a folding movement or an unfolding movement.
[0079] In this embodiment, the extended air intake port structure can be automatically driven to achieve an unfolded state or a folded state through a motor, a gear structure, a rack structure and other similar motion mechanisms, thereby realizing the automation of the range hood's extended smoking function.
[0080] In an optional embodiment, the expandable air suction port structure 2 further includes: an air duct shell 25.
[0081] The air duct housing 25 is arranged on the outer surface of the telescopic air duct 21. The collar 23 is arranged in the interlayer between the main air duct 1 and the air duct housing 25.
[0082] The collar 23 and the air duct housing 25 are also used to separate the main air duct 1 and the telescopic air duct 21 when the telescopic air duct 21 is in the unfolded state, so as to keep the interlayer clean.
[0083] In this embodiment, the air duct shell can ensure that the interlayer on the side of the range hood is not contaminated by oil smoke, keep the circuit control board in the interlayer on the side of the range hood clean, and increase the service life of the range hood.
[0084] Example 2
[0085] The present embodiment provides a control method for a range hood, which is applied to the range hood of embodiment 1, wherein the range hood further comprises a main air duct baffle, which is used to adjust the airflow speed of the main air duct suction port by adjusting the rotation angle. The main air duct baffle of the present embodiment is usually located at the upper part or side of the range hood, and its main function is to guide the oil smoke to smoothly enter the range hood for exhaust, and to close the air inlet when the range hood is not working to prevent the external oil smoke from flowing back into the kitchen. The design of the main air duct baffle can be fixed or movable, so that it can be opened when the range hood is running to allow the oil smoke to be discharged smoothly.
[0086] See also Fig.11 , the control method of the range hood includes:
[0087] S1. Obtain a first air flow velocity at a suction port of a main air duct.
[0088] S2. When the first air flow velocity is different from the preset air flow velocity, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted according to the operating state of the telescopic air duct so that the air flow velocity at the main air duct suction port is the same as the preset air flow velocity.
[0089] The operating state includes the unfolded state of the telescopic air duct and the retracted state of the telescopic air duct. The preset air flow speed is set according to the actual situation.
[0090] In an optional embodiment, step S2 includes:
[0091] When the first air flow velocity is less than the preset air flow velocity, and the first air flow velocity is equal to the first preset air flow velocity, and the telescopic air duct arranged on the left side or the right side of the range hood is in the unfolded state, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted to the first angle.
[0092] In an optional embodiment, step S2 includes:
[0093] When at least one expandable air intake structure is provided on the left and right sides of the range hood, if the first air flow velocity is lower than the preset air flow velocity, and the first air flow velocity is equal to the second preset air flow velocity, and the telescopic air ducts provided on the left and right sides of the range hood are in the expanded state, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted to the second angle.
[0094] The preset airflow speed is greater than the first preset airflow speed, the first preset airflow speed is greater than the second preset airflow speed, and the first angle is greater than the second angle.
[0095] In an optional embodiment, step S2 includes:
[0096] When the first air flow speed is greater than the preset air flow speed, and the first air flow speed is equal to the third preset air flow speed, and the telescopic air duct is in a retracted state, and the current main air duct baffle is at the second angle, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted to the third angle.
[0097] In an optional embodiment, step S2 includes:
[0098] When the first air flow speed is greater than the preset air flow speed, and the first air flow speed is equal to the fourth preset air flow speed, and the telescopic air duct is in a retracted state, and the current main air duct baffle is at a first angle, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted to a third angle.
[0099] In an optional embodiment, step S2 includes:
[0100] When the first air flow speed is greater than the preset air flow speed, and the first air flow speed is equal to the fifth preset air flow speed, and the telescopic air duct arranged on the left side or the right side of the range hood is in the expanded state, and when the current main air duct baffle is at the second angle, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted to the first angle.
[0101] Among them, the preset air flow speed is less than the fifth preset air flow speed, the fifth preset air flow speed is less than the fourth preset air flow speed, the fourth preset air flow speed is less than the third preset air flow speed, and the third angle is greater than the first angle.
[0102] In this embodiment, the rotation angle of the main air duct baffle is adjusted so that the air flow velocity of the main air duct suction port is the same as the preset air flow velocity, thereby ensuring the overall oil fume suction effect of the range hood.
[0103] A specific example is introduced below to explain in detail the control method of the range hood of this embodiment.
[0104] The flowchart of this example is as follows Fig.12 As shown:
[0105] S1201. Start the range hood and open the main air duct baffle to a predetermined position.
[0106] S1202. Monitor the first air flow velocity v at the main air duct suction port in real time.
[0107] S1203, determine whether v is equal to the preset airflow velocity v0, if v is equal to v0, execute step S1204; if v is not equal to v0, execute step S1207.

[0119] Among them, the third angle is the initial angle of the main air duct baffle of the range hood, which is usually set to 90 degrees.
[0120] S1214, determine whether v is equal to the fourth preset airflow speed v4, if v is equal to v4, execute step S1215; if v is not equal to v4, execute step S1216.
