Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchen appliance technology, and in particular to a method for detecting abnormal vibration of a range hood and an oil fume treatment device using the method. Background Technology

[0002] A range hood is a kitchen appliance used to purify the kitchen environment. Its main function is to remove cooking fumes during cooking, thus maintaining a clean kitchen environment. Existing range hoods include a duct assembly and a smoke collection hood, with the hood located below and connected to the duct assembly. The duct assembly includes a main unit and a centrifugal fan housed within it; the centrifugal fan is the power source of the range hood. During operation, the centrifugal fan creates a negative pressure zone above the stove, drawing cooking fumes into the duct assembly through the smoke collection hood. The fumes are then exhausted outdoors through ductwork.

[0003] Range hoods generate noise during operation, and this noise level is an important performance indicator for evaluating the product. The vibration of the motor inside the range hood exacerbates and amplifies the overall noise. Traditional methods for detecting range hood vibration typically involve collecting and analyzing vibration signals from the motor during operation; this allows for real-time monitoring of the range hood's operating status, providing timely reminders to users to clean or replace the impeller to prevent wear and tear on the internal structure of the volute.

[0004] Current technologies for detecting abnormal vibration in range hoods primarily consider vibration amplitude, neglecting rotational speed. In some cases, the range hood may be running at low speed, exhibiting abnormal vibration, but the amplitude may not reach the threshold, thus failing to detect the abnormality and triggering an alarm. Furthermore, normal vibrations during changes in range hood rotational speed may be misinterpreted. Range hood vibration detection typically relies solely on fixed vibration thresholds, which has the following drawbacks:

[0005] (1) Only the vibration amplitude was detected, without taking into account the motor speed and status for comprehensive judgment;

[0006] (2) It cannot distinguish between speed fluctuations and stable states, and is prone to misjudgment due to shifting periods or changes in back pressure;

[0007] (3) The same vibration threshold is used in the high-speed zone and the low-speed zone, resulting in low detection accuracy.

[0008] For example, existing patent 1 (CN201510703778.3) proposes a method and system for diagnosing range hood faults based on EMD noise reduction, providing a method to determine whether the impeller is faulty by performing noise analysis on vibration; patent 1 only includes a method for judging vibration signals, but does not disclose a method for judging whether the range hood is working normally by the motor speed; patent 2 (CN202410034035.0) proposes an integrated stove and fan system and control method, providing a method for controlling the motor speed by monitoring the vibration signal of the motor operation; patent 2 only includes a method for controlling the motor speed by vibration signals, but does not disclose a method for judging whether there is abnormal vibration based on a threshold; patent 3 (CN202410360732.5) proposes a vibration reduction method, device, range hood and storage medium; patent 3 performs vibration reduction processing based on amplitude, rather than judging whether vibration occurs based on amplitude.

[0009] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a method for detecting abnormal vibration of a range hood and an oil fume treatment device using this method to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

This embodiment takes a top-mounted range hood as an example to illustrate the method for detecting abnormal vibration of a range hood.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for detecting abnormal vibration of the smoke machine includes the following steps:

[0057] Step S1, Data Acquisition: Acquisition of rotational speed n and vibration amplitude;

[0058] Step S2, Speed ​​stability judgment: Determine whether the speed is stable. If yes, proceed to step S3; otherwise, proceed to step S4.

[0059] Step S3: Classify the rotation speed into intervals and compare the vibration thresholds for each interval. If the vibration amplitude is greater than the vibration threshold of the corresponding interval, trigger a vibration abnormality alarm.

[0060] Step S4: Obtain the duration of continuous instability T; if T≥T_th, proceed to step S5; if T<T_th, it is determined to be a transient disturbance.

[0061] Step S5: Determine if the speed exceeds the limit. If yes, start the speed reduction protection and trigger the user alarm. If no, return to step S4.

[0062] Specifically, the speed n acquisition in step S1 includes: sampling frequency of the Hall sensor, and calculating the speed by counting the magnetic poles of the motor rotor. , where f h Where is the Hall pulse frequency, and N is the number of pole pairs of the motor.

[0063] Furthermore, the vibration amplitude acquisition in step S1 includes: the vibration amplitude acquisition device acquires the vibration amplitude corresponding to the rotational speed, the acquisition frequency is ≥10Hz, and the data storage period is T=5s.

[0064] Optionally, in step S2, the speed stabilization condition is defined as follows: within the time window Δt, the speed change rate |dn / dt|≤5rpm / s, and the final speed n_f∈[n_t-20rpm,n_t+20rpm], where n_t is the target speed.

[0065] Alternatively, the time window Δt can be set to a value between 3s and 5s, such as 3s, 4s, or 5s, depending on the specific circumstances.

[0066] Optionally, the range classification of rotational speed in step S3 includes:

[0067] Low-speed region: n_f∈[0rpm,1500rpm];

[0069] Further optionally, in step S3, the vibration thresholds corresponding to different speed ranges include:

[0070] Vibration threshold in the low-speed region: A_low = 8 mm / s²;

[0071] Vibration threshold in the high-speed zone: A_high = 12 mm / s²; when the vibration amplitude A(t) > the threshold of the corresponding zone, a vibration anomaly alarm is triggered.

[0072] Optionally, the transient disturbances in step S4 include speed fluctuations caused by shift periods or changes in back pressure.

[0073] Optionally, determining whether the rotational speed exceeds the limit in step S5 includes:

[0076] The following three specific embodiments illustrate the above-mentioned method for detecting abnormal vibration of a range hood.

[0077] Specific Implementation Example 1: Speed ​​Stability Judgment

[0078] When the user sets the airflow to high, the motor speed gradually increases from 0 rpm to 1800 rpm;

[0079] The system detected that the maximum rate of change of rotational speed within Δt=3s was 4rpm / s, and the final n_f=1790rpm∈[1780,1820]rpm, which was determined to be a stable state.

[0080] Specific Implementation Example 2: Vibration Anomaly Detection

[0081] When the high-speed zone n_f=1600rpm, the vibration amplitude A(t)=15mm / s²>A_high=12mm / s², triggering an alarm and recording event code "E001".

[0082] Specific Implementation Example 3: Unstable State Handling:

[0083] If the continuous unstable duration T = 12s > 10s due to the shift period, and the condition that n(t) = 2000rpm > 1.2 × 1800rpm = 2160rpm is not met, then only the event code is recorded and judged as transient interference "E002" without reducing speed.

[0084] The method for detecting abnormal vibration of a range hood disclosed in this embodiment includes data acquisition, speed stability assessment, speed interval classification, vibration threshold comparison, obtaining the duration of continuous instability T, and determining whether the speed exceeds the limit. This method, by simultaneously monitoring speed and vibration data and combining speed stability assessment with interval vibration threshold comparison, can improve the monitoring accuracy of the operating conditions of the fume treatment equipment, enhance the accuracy of abnormal vibration detection, prevent misjudgments caused by gear shifting periods or back pressure changes, and thus improve operational safety.

[0085] This embodiment also provides an oil fume treatment device that uses the above-mentioned abnormal vibration detection method for exhaust fans, which has high safety and high user satisfaction.

[0086] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the fume treatment equipment includes a main unit housing 100 and a fume collection hood 200, with the hood 200 connected below the main unit housing 100. The main unit housing 100 includes an air duct, which comprises a volute and a motor. By collecting the motor's rotational speed to determine the speed range, vibration detection is achieved, thereby regulating the fume treatment equipment.

[0087] Obviously, the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention.
