Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kitchen utensils, and more particularly, to an oil cup and a range hood having the same. Background Art
[0002] Currently, a range hood is a widely used air purification device in modern household kitchens. It can effectively capture the oil fumes generated during cooking, reduce indoor air pollution, and create a fresher cooking environment for users. As one of the key components of a range hood, the main function of the oil cup is to collect the grease that condenses and drips after the oil fumes are filtered, preventing the grease from directly dripping onto the kitchen countertop or floor and reducing the daily cleaning burden. In the existing designs of range hoods, most oil cups adopt an open or semi-closed structure. The advantage of such a design is that the grease can flow smoothly into the oil cup, and at the same time, it is convenient to observe the accumulated grease in the oil cup to remind the user to clean it in time. In addition, the open structure is also beneficial to air circulation, avoiding the internal pressure accumulation caused by improper enclosure and affecting the normal operation of the range hood.
[0003] However, although the open or semi-closed oil cup performs well in grease collection, there are obvious deficiencies in actual operation. Especially during the process of disassembling the oil cup for pouring out the oil and cleaning, due to the open design of the oil cup and the viscosity and fluidity of the grease itself, once the operation is careless during disassembly, causing the oil cup to shake or tilt, the oil stain in the oil cup is very likely to overflow, not only polluting the kitchen countertop, cabinet, and even the floor, but also possibly staining the user's clothes, increasing the additional cleaning difficulty and time cost. This problem is particularly prominent when the kitchen space is relatively narrow or the position of the oil cup is relatively high. The overflow of the oil stain not only makes the environment dirty and messy, but also has a negative impact on the user's experience. Therefore, how to reduce the risk of oil stain overflow when disassembling the oil cup while ensuring effective grease collection has become a technical difficulty that needs to be solved urgently in the current design of range hoods.

[0026] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0027] In order to solve the technical problem that oil stains are likely to overflow and cause pollution when the oil cup is disassembled in the prior art, the present invention provides an oil cup.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the technical solution of the present invention provides an oil cup 1 for connecting with the machine body 100 of a range hood to receive the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe in the machine body 100. The oil cup 1 includes a cup body 10 and a baffle component 20; the cup body 10 has an accommodating cavity 11 and an installation opening 12 communicating with the accommodating cavity 11, and the accommodating cavity 11 is used for accommodating the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe; the baffle component 20 is arranged in the cup body 10 and located at the installation opening 12. The baffle component 20 has a deployed state and a contracted state. When the baffle component 20 is in the deployed state, the baffle component 20 blocks the installation opening 12. When the baffle component 20 is in the contracted state, at least part of the baffle component 20 opens the installation opening 12 for discharging the oil stains in the accommodating cavity 11; wherein, an oil inlet hole 21 is provided on the baffle component 20. When the baffle component 20 is in the deployed state, the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe flow into the accommodating cavity 11 through the oil inlet hole 21.
[0029] Adopting the technical solution of the present invention, the oil cup 1 collects the oil stains discharged from the range hood through the oil inlet hole 21 and the accommodating cavity 11. When there is more oil stain in the oil cup 1 and it needs to be poured out, the oil cup 1 is taken out from the bottom of the range hood. At this time, the baffle component 20 is in the deployed state, and the installation opening 12 of the oil cup 1 is blocked, which can effectively prevent the situation that the internal oil stains overflow due to the unstable removal of the oil cup 1. When it is necessary to pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1, first control at least part of the baffle component 20 of the oil cup 1 to contract. At this time, at least part of the baffle makes a contraction movement to open the installation opening 12, and then pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1 and clean the oil cup 1, thereby solving the technical problem that oil stains are likely to overflow and cause pollution when the oil cup 1 is disassembled in the prior art. And it enables the user to pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1 more conveniently and safely without worrying about the splashing of the oil stains during the pouring process.
[0030] Specifically, sliding grooves 13 extending in the horizontal direction are respectively provided on the opposite inner side walls of the cup body 10. The opposite ends of the baffle member 20 are respectively and correspondingly arranged in the two sliding grooves 13, so that at least a part of the baffle member 20 moves along the extension direction of the sliding groove 13 when the baffle member 20 is unfolded or contracted. It can be seen that the sliding groove 13 provides guidance for the movement of the baffle member 20, ensuring that the baffle member 20 can move along the extension direction of the sliding groove 13 when unfolded and contracted, thereby more precisely controlling the unfolded and contracted states of the baffle member 20, ensuring accurate positioning during the conversion between blocking the installation opening 12 and opening the installation opening 12, avoiding jamming and unnecessary resistance during the movement process, and improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the baffle member 20.
[0031] As Figure 3 shown, the oil cup 1 further includes two mounting members 30, and the two mounting members 30 are respectively and correspondingly arranged on the opposite inner side walls of the cup body 10; the mounting member 30 includes two support plates 31 arranged from top to bottom, and a sliding groove 13 is formed between the two support plates 31 and the inner side wall of the cup body 10. With the above arrangement, the sliding groove 13 formed between the support plate 31 and the inner side wall of the oil cup 1 provides an accurate movement track for the baffle member 20, ensuring a smooth and orderly conversion process between the unfolded and contracted states of the baffle member 20, avoiding the offset or jamming phenomenon of the baffle member 20, and improving the reliability and durability of the oil cup 1.
[0032] In the first embodiment of the present application, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, the baffle member 20 includes a baffle body 22, the opposite ends of the baffle body 22 are respectively and correspondingly arranged in the two sliding grooves 13, and the baffle body 22 is deformably arranged within a preset temperature range; when the baffle member 20 is in the unfolded state, the baffle body 22 is in a flat plate shape to block the installation opening 12; when the baffle member 20 is in the contracted state, at least a part of the baffle body 22 is in a curved plate shape composed of a plurality of sequentially connected arc-shaped plate segments to open the installation opening 12. It can be seen that the baffle body 22 can change its shape within a preset temperature range, and this characteristic enables the oil cup 1 to automatically adjust the state of the baffle member 20 according to the ambient temperature. For example, it can maintain a closed state at a lower temperature to avoid oil spillage, and deform to the contracted state at a higher temperature or when manually triggered to facilitate oil dumping, without the need to manually adjust the baffle member 20 frequently, simplifying the operation process and enhancing the user experience.
[0033] In the above embodiment, the baffle body 22 is made of shape memory alloy. Shape memory alloy has unique temperature response characteristics and can return to a preset shape within a specific temperature range. This enables the baffle body 22 to utilize the "shape memory effect" of the shape memory alloy to perform expansion or contraction movements according to the temperature change during the operation of the range hood, thereby automatically blocking or opening the installation opening 12 without manual operation, improving the automation level of the oil cup 1 and user convenience.
[0034] For the baffle component 20 with the baffle body 22 made of shape memory alloy, when there is a lot of oil stain in the oil cup 1 that needs to be poured out, at this time the baffle body 22 is at room temperature, the temperature of the baffle body 22 is lower than the set temperature of the memory alloy, the baffle component 20 is in the expanded state, and the installation opening 12 at the top of the oil cup 1 is sealed. The oil cup 1 is taken out from the bottom of the range hood. During this process, the installation opening 12 of the oil cup 1 is in a closed state, which can effectively prevent the situation that the internal oil stain overflows due to the unstable removal of the oil cup 1. When it is necessary to pour out the oil stain in the oil cup 1, first rinse the baffle body 22 of the oil cup 1 with hot water to make the temperature of the baffle higher than the set temperature of the memory alloy. At this time, the baffle component 20 only needs more than ten seconds to perform a contraction movement to reach the contracted state, and then pour out the oil stain in the oil cup 1 and clean the oil cup 1.
[0035] In the second embodiment of the present application, as Figure 4 shown, the baffle component 20 includes a main board body 23 and a movable board 24; the opposite ends of the main board body 23 are respectively and correspondingly fixed in two sliding grooves 13, one side of the main board body 23 abuts against the inner side wall of the cup body 10, and an installation groove 230 is provided on the side of the main board body 23 away from the inner side wall of the cup body 10; the movable board 24 is movably arranged in the installation groove 230 along the direction towards the inner side wall of the cup body 10; when the baffle component 20 is in the expanded state, the side of the movable board 24 away from the main board body 23 moves to abut against the inner side wall of the cup body 10 to block the installation opening 12; when the baffle component 20 is in the contracted state, the movable board 24 moves to be located in the installation groove 230 to open the installation opening 12. With the above settings, the two ends of the main board body 23 are fixed in the sliding grooves 13, and the movable board 24 can move in the installation groove 230 of the main board body 23 along the direction towards the inner side wall of the cup body 10, enabling the movable board 24 to flexibly switch between blocking the installation opening 12 and retracting into the installation groove 230 to open the installation opening 12, realizing the automatic sealing and opening functions of the oil cup 1, and preventing oil stain from overflowing when the user takes out the oil cup 1 for cleaning, improving the safety and convenience of operation.
[0036] In the third embodiment of the present application, as Figure 5As shown, a guiding groove 14 extending along the extending direction of the sliding groove 13 is provided on the inner side wall of the cup body 10 within the sliding groove 13. The baffle member 20 includes a plurality of mounting plates 25 arranged in sequence. Two adjacent mounting plates 25 among the plurality of mounting plates 25 are hinged. The opposite ends of the first and the last mounting plates 25 among the plurality of mounting plates 25 are respectively disposed within the two guiding grooves 14 and are movably arranged along the extending direction of the guiding grooves 14. When the baffle member 20 is in the unfolded state, the first and the last mounting plates 25 among the plurality of mounting plates 25 respectively abut against the opposite inner side walls of the cup body 10 and the plurality of mounting plates 25 form a flat plate shape. When the baffle member 20 is in the contracted state, the plurality of mounting plates 25 are in a folded plate shape.
[0037] The plurality of mutually hinged mounting plates 25 enable the baffle member 20 to be convertible between a flat plate shape and a folded plate shape, making the baffle member 20 more flexible when blocking and opening the mounting opening 12 and capable of adapting to different operation requirements. The guiding grooves 14 provide an accurate path for the movement of the mounting plates 25, ensuring that the baffle member 20 will not shift or vibrate during the movement process, thus improving the stability and reliability of the movement. When the baffle member 20 is in the contracted state, the plurality of mounting plates 25 are folded together, significantly reducing the occupied space. Meanwhile, the mounting opening 12 is opened, which not only facilitates the disassembly and cleaning of the oil cup 1, but also makes the entire oil cup 1 design more compact, saving the space at the bottom of the range hood.
[0038] In this application, there are a plurality of oil inlet holes 21, and the plurality of oil inlet holes 21 are respectively and spacedly arranged on the baffle member 20 along the extending direction of the baffle member 20. The plurality of oil inlet holes 21 contribute to evenly distributing the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe within the accommodating cavity 11 of the oil cup 1, preventing the oil stains from concentrating in a certain area of the cup body 10 and causing overflow or imbalance. Also, the number of channels for the oil stains to enter the accommodating cavity 11 is increased, accelerating the flowing-in speed of the oil stains. Especially in the case where a large amount of oil stains are discharged within a short time, it can be quickly processed to avoid overflow.
[0039] Specifically, the oil cup 1 further includes a connecting component 40 which is arranged on the cup body 10 for detachably connecting with the range hood. The connecting component 40 includes two hanging ear parts 41 which are respectively arranged on the cup body 10 and located at the opening edge of the installation opening 12. Among them, the hanging ear part 41 is provided with a connecting hole 410 for detachably connecting with the range hood through the connecting hole 410. Or, the hanging ear part 41 is in the shape of a bent plate, and a clamping groove is provided on the bottom of the range hood, and the hanging ear part 41 is detachably connected with the clamping groove. With the above settings, the connecting hole 410 or the bent plate shape design of the hanging ear part 41 enables the cup body 10 to be easily detachably connected with the bottom of the range hood, ensuring the stability of the oil cup 1 during operation, avoiding accidental detachment caused by vibration or gravity, and simplifying the installation and disassembly process of the oil cup 1, facilitating the user to regularly clean the oil stain and improving the user experience.
[0040] As Figure 6 shown, according to another aspect of the present invention, a range hood is provided, which includes a machine body 100 and the above-mentioned oil cup 1. A drain pipe is provided in the machine body 100. The oil cup 1 is detachably connected to the bottom of the machine body 100, and the oil cup 1 is communicated with the drain pipe for receiving the oil stain discharged from the drain pipe. By using the range hood including the above-mentioned oil cup 1, it can effectively collect the oil stain generated during cooking, avoid the oil stain directly dripping onto the kitchen countertop or floor, keep the kitchen clean and hygienic. At the same time, when the oil stain in the accommodating cavity 11 needs to be poured, the baffle component 20 can prevent the oil cup 1 from being unstable during the removal process and causing the oil stain to overflow, solving the problem that the oil stain in the oil cup 1 is easy to overflow when the user pours it, and greatly improving the user experience.
[0041] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0042] The oil cup 1 is used to connect with the body 100 of the range hood to receive the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe in the body 100. The oil cup 1 includes a cup body 10 and a baffle member 20. The cup body 10 has a receiving cavity 11 and an installation opening 12 communicating with the receiving cavity 11. The receiving cavity 11 is used to receive the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe. The baffle member 20 is arranged in the cup body 10 and located at the installation opening 12. The baffle member 20 has an unfolded state and a contracted state. When the baffle member 20 is in the unfolded state, the baffle member 20 blocks the installation opening 12. When the baffle member 20 is in the contracted state, at least part of the baffle member 20 opens the installation opening 12 for discharging the oil stains in the receiving cavity 11. Wherein, an oil inlet hole 21 is provided on the baffle member 20. When the baffle member 20 is in the unfolded state, the oil stains discharged from the drain pipe flow into the receiving cavity 11 through the oil inlet hole 21. By adopting the technical solution of the present invention, the oil cup 1 collects the oil stains discharged from the range hood through the oil inlet hole 21 and the receiving cavity 11. When there is more oil stain in the oil cup 1 and it needs to be poured out, the oil cup 1 is taken out from the bottom of the range hood. At this time, the baffle member 20 is in the unfolded state, and the installation opening 12 of the oil cup 1 is blocked, which can effectively prevent the situation that the oil cup 1 is taken out unstably and the internal oil stains overflow. When it is necessary to pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1, first control at least part of the baffle member 20 of the oil cup 1 to contract. At this time, at least part of the baffle makes a contraction movement to open the installation opening 12, and then pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1 and clean the oil cup 1, thereby solving the technical problem that the oil stains are easy to overflow and cause pollution when the oil cup 1 is disassembled in the prior art. And it enables the user to pour out the oil stains in the oil cup 1 more conveniently and safely without worrying about the splashing of the oil stains during pouring.
