Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more particularly to an air conditioning range hood system. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the advancement of technology, range hoods have gradually become essential kitchen appliances, improving both the kitchen environment and the user's cooking experience. However, cooking requires turning on the stove, and the high temperature generated can significantly reduce the cooking experience, especially in summer, often making cooks want to escape the kitchen. To solve this problem, air-conditioning range hoods (or simply air-conditioning range hoods) with cooling functions have emerged on the market. These products integrate air conditioning equipment above the range hood to cool the kitchen air.

[0003] However, air conditioner range hoods have the following drawbacks in use. On the one hand, air conditioners continuously produce condensate (such as hot water generated from heat dissipation) during cooling operation. Direct discharge of this condensate would waste water resources and fail to effectively utilize the residual heat of the hot water, which is inconsistent with the technological development trend of energy conservation and environmental protection. On the other hand, grease easily adheres to the inner walls of the range hood after operation. Long-term accumulation of grease not only increases the difficulty of cleaning but also easily breeds bacteria and produces odors, even polluting the kitchen environment and posing a potential threat to the respiratory health of cooks. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides an air conditioning range hood system that directs the condensate water output from the air conditioning equipment into a water storage device.

[0007] Optionally, it may also include a control module; Each of the water storage chambers in the water storage device includes a temperature detection unit, which is used to detect the temperature inside the corresponding water storage chamber.

[0008] Optionally, the smoke hood includes a water curtain unit inside; the smoke hood includes an oil fume removal mode; The water curtain unit is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe. The control module is used to control the corresponding water storage chamber to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit in sequence according to the arrangement order from low temperature to high temperature inside each water storage chamber in the oil fume removal mode. The water curtain unit atomizes the received condensate or forms a continuous water curtain to remove oil fumes from the inside of the smoke machine.

[0009] Optionally, the air conditioning range hood system further includes a condensate water curtain pipe, the condensate water curtain pipe including a second valve; The input end of the condensate water curtain pipe is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe, and the output end of the condensate water curtain pipe is connected to the water curtain unit. When the second valve is turned on or off, the condensate water curtain pipe is turned on or off accordingly.

[0010] Optionally, the smoke hood includes a spray unit inside; the smoke hood includes a cleaning mode; The spray unit is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe. The control module is used to control the corresponding water storage chamber to output the stored condensate to the spray unit in sequence according to the high temperature to low temperature arrangement of the water storage chambers in the cleaning mode. The spray unit atomizes the received condensate into fine droplets or forms a high-pressure spray water flow to clean the inside of the smoke machine equipment with the condensate.

[0011] Optionally, the air conditioning range hood system further includes a condensate spray pipe, which includes a third valve; The input end of the condensate spray pipe is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe, and the output end of the condensate spray pipe is connected to the spray unit.

[0014] Optionally, a second drainage pipe may also be included; The inlet of the second drainage pipe is connected to the bottom of the smoke machine, and the outlet of the second drainage pipe is connected to the sewer.

[0015] This invention provides an air conditioning range hood system, which includes an air conditioning unit, a range hood unit, a water storage device, a condensate flow pipe, and a condensate transmission pipe. The water storage device includes multiple water storage chambers arranged in sequence, with the tops of adjacent water storage chambers connected by an overflow structure. The inlet end of the condensate flow pipe is connected to the air conditioning unit, and the outlet end of the condensate flow pipe is connected to the inlet of the first water storage chamber in the water storage device. The condensate flow pipe is used to store the condensate output from the air conditioning unit into the water storage device. The inlet end of the condensate transmission pipe is connected to the outlet of each water storage chamber in the water storage device, and the outlet end of the condensate transmission pipe is connected to the range hood unit. The condensate transmission pipe is used to output the condensate stored in the water storage device to the range hood unit, so as to use the condensate to clean the interior of the range hood unit and / or remove oil fumes. This air conditioning and range hood system incorporates a water storage device by rationally designing condensate flow and transmission pipes. This device facilitates condensate transfer between the air conditioning unit and the range hood, allowing condensate output from the air conditioning unit to flow into it. When the range hood requires cleaning and / or degreasing, the stored condensate is utilized, achieving effective condensate treatment and water conservation. For example, a spray structure can be installed inside the range hood's ductwork to convert the hot water generated by the air conditioning unit's water cooling into a spray pattern. After use, before grease adheres tightly, the hot water from the air conditioning unit cleans the interior of the range hood, and the process is further facilitated by appropriate drainage. The condensate is discharged into the sewer system, enabling the reuse of condensate and solving the problems of oil buildup and odor generation inside the range hood. It effectively cleans the oil residue inside the range hood and its ducts. For example, a water curtain structure is installed inside the range hood's intake port, converting the cold water generated during the initial water cooling process and the cooled hot water from the water cooling system into a flowing water curtain to remove oil fumes from the inside of the range hood. This reuse of condensate solves the problems of poor oil fume filtration and difficulty in cleaning oil fumes that accumulate inside the smoke collection chamber, improving the oil fume separation efficiency of the range hood, reducing oil fumes emitted into the atmosphere, and making it less likely for oil stains to accumulate inside the range hood.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0022] Figure 1This is a structural schematic diagram of an air conditioning range hood system provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioning and range hood system includes an air conditioning unit 10, a range hood unit 20, a water storage device 30, a condensate flow pipe 40, and a condensate transmission pipe 50. The water storage device 30 includes multiple water storage chambers 31 arranged in sequence, with the tops of two adjacent water storage chambers 31 connected by an overflow structure. The input end of the condensate flow pipe 40 is connected to the air conditioning unit 10, and the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40 is connected to the inlet of the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30. The condensate flow pipe 40 is used to store the condensate output from the air conditioning unit 10 into the water storage device 30. The input end of the condensate transmission pipe 50 is connected to the outlet of each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30, and the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50 is connected to the range hood unit 20. The condensate transmission pipe 50 is used to output the condensate stored in the water storage device 30 to the range hood unit 20, so as to use the condensate to clean and / or remove oil fumes from the interior of the range hood unit 20.

[0023] Specifically, the air conditioning and range hood system includes an air conditioning unit 10, a range hood unit 20, a water storage device 30, a condensate flow pipe 40, and a condensate transmission pipe 50. Exemplarily, the water storage device 30 can be integrated with the air conditioning unit 10, integrated with the range hood unit 20, or independent of both. This embodiment is merely an example and does not limit the specific location of the water storage device 30; it can be reasonably selected and set according to actual installation needs. The condensate flow pipe 40 connects the air conditioning unit 10 and the water storage device 30, and the condensate transmission pipe 50 connects the water storage device 30 and the range hood unit 20. The condensate flow pipe 40 can output the condensate generated during the operation of the air conditioning unit 10 to the water storage device 30 for storage, and the condensate transmission pipe 50 can output the condensate stored in the water storage device 30 to the range hood unit 20, so as to use the condensate to clean and / or remove grease from the interior of the range hood unit 20, achieving secondary utilization of the condensate. In other words, it can also be understood that by reasonably setting up the condensate flow pipe 40 and the condensate transmission pipe 50, an additional water storage device 30 is added during the condensate transmission process between the air conditioning equipment 10 and the range hood equipment 20, a condensate recycling link is constructed, which consists of water produced by the air conditioning equipment 10, water stored in the water storage device 30, and water used by the range hood equipment 20. The stability and controllability of the condensate supply are ensured through the transfer function of the water storage device 30.

[0024] Based on this, the water storage device 30 includes multiple water storage chambers 31 arranged in sequence. The tops of two adjacent water storage chambers 31 are connected by an overflow structure. For example, the water storage device 30 can be understood as a multi-chamber graded water storage design, with multiple water storage chambers 31 arranged in sequence. The overflow structure may include, but is not limited to, overflow troughs, overflow holes, and connecting pipes. For example, the water storage device 30 as a whole includes one inlet and multiple outlets. The inlet of the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 can be understood as the inlet of the entire water storage device 30, and the outlets of each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 can be understood as the outlets of the entire water storage device 30. For example, the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 can be understood as the water storage chamber 31 closest to the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40 in the water storage device 30, and the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 can be understood as the water storage chamber 31 furthest from the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40 in the water storage device 30. Furthermore, for example, this embodiment does not impose specific requirements or limitations on the number and connection relationship of the water storage chambers 31 in the water storage device 30. Figure 1 The water storage device 30 uses only three water storage chambers 31, and the overflow and connection between adjacent water storage chambers 31 are achieved through side walls with successively decreasing heights. Of course, the number and connection relationship of the water storage chambers 31 in the water storage device 30 can also be other.

[0025] The inlet of the condensate flow pipe 40 is connected to the air conditioning unit 10, and the outlet of the condensate flow pipe 40 is connected to the inlet of the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30. Thus, when the condensate generated by the air conditioning unit 10 enters the water storage device 30 through the condensate flow pipe 40, the condensate first flows into the first water storage chamber 31 and gradually accumulates in the first water storage chamber 31. Since the two adjacent water storage chambers 31 are only connected at the top through the overflow structure and not at the bottom, the condensate will preferentially fill the first water storage chamber 31 until the liquid level inside the first water storage chamber 31 rises to the height of the corresponding overflow structure. When the liquid level inside the first water storage chamber 31 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, the condensate continuing to flow into the water storage device 30 will overflow from the first water storage chamber 31 through the corresponding overflow structure and enter the next water storage chamber 31. At this time, the condensate gradually accumulates in the next water storage chamber 31 until the liquid level inside the next water storage chamber 31 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, and then stores the condensate in the next water storage chamber 31 through the corresponding overflow structure. In this way, the condensate output by the air conditioning equipment 10 will fill each water storage chamber 31 in the order of arrangement, so that the liquid level inside each water storage chamber 31 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, realizing the orderly storage of condensate and ensuring the stability and controllability of condensate storage.

[0026] The inlet of the condensate water transmission pipe 50 is connected to the outlet of each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30, and the outlet of the condensate water transmission pipe 50 is connected to the range hood 20. Thus, when the range hood 20 needs to be cleaned and / or degreased using condensate water, the condensate water transmission pipe 50 can transmit the condensate water stored in at least one of the water storage chambers 31 to the interior of the range hood 20, ensuring efficient cleaning or degreased removal. For example, the cleaning temperature of the range hood 20 can be compared with the temperature inside the water storage chamber 31, and condensate water with a matching temperature can be selected for the cleaning process inside the range hood 20. This ensures that the oil stains adhering to the inner walls and ducts of the range hood 20 can be washed away, preventing oil stain buildup and odor problems inside the range hood 20. For example, the oil fume removal temperature of the range hood 20 can be compared with the temperature inside the water storage chamber 31. The condensate stored in the water storage chamber 31 with a matching temperature can be selected to carry out the oil fume removal process inside the range hood 20. This ensures that the oil fume adsorbed inside the range hood 20 is cooled, liquefied, and condensed, avoiding the problem of oil stains accumulating inside the range hood 20, improving the oil fume purification efficiency of the range hood 20, and reducing the oil fume emitted into the atmosphere.

[0027] The technical solution in this embodiment of the invention involves a condensate flow pipe and a condensate transmission pipe that are rationally configured. A water storage device is added during the condensate transmission process between the air conditioning unit and the range hood unit. The condensate output from the air conditioning unit flows into this storage device. When the range hood unit needs cleaning and / or degreasing, the stored condensate is used accordingly, thus reusing the condensate and achieving effective condensate treatment, which helps save water resources. For example, a spray structure can be installed inside the duct of the range hood unit to convert the hot water generated by the water cooling of the air conditioning unit into a spray water flow. After use and before grease adheres tightly, the hot water output from the air conditioning unit can effectively clean the interior of the range hood unit. The condensate is discharged into the sewer through relevant drainage pipes, realizing the secondary use of the condensate. This solves the problems of oil stains accumulating inside the range hood and the easy generation of odors. It effectively cleans the oil stains attached inside the range hood and the air duct. For example, a water curtain structure is set inside the smoke inlet of the range hood. The cold water generated by the water cooling of the range hood and the cooled water after the hot water generated by the water cooling are converted into a flowing water curtain to remove oil fumes from the inside of the range hood. This realizes the secondary use of the condensate and solves the problems of poor oil fume filtration effect inside the range hood and the difficulty in cleaning oil fume deposits inside the smoke collection chamber. It improves the oil fume separation degree of the range hood, reduces the oil fumes emitted into the atmosphere, and makes it less likely for oil stains to accumulate inside the range hood.

[0028] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a control module ( Figure 1 (Not shown in the diagram.) Exemplarily, the control module can be located inside the air conditioning unit 10, or inside the range hood unit 20, or inside the water storage device 30. This embodiment is merely an example and is not intended to limit the scope. The specific location of the control module can be reasonably selected according to the actual situation, and will not be described in detail later. The control module can be electrically connected to the air conditioning unit 10 and the range hood unit 20 respectively. The condensate flow pipe 40 includes a first valve 41. The last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 includes a liquid level detection unit 32, which is used to detect the liquid level height inside the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30. The control module is electrically connected to the liquid level detection unit 32 and the first valve 41 respectively. The control module is used to control the first valve 41 to close when the liquid level height inside the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 reaches the target liquid level height.

[0029] Specifically, the condensate flow pipe 40 includes a first valve 41. When the first valve 41 is open or closed, the condensate flow pipe 40 is correspondingly open or closed. Thus, by providing the first valve 41 on the condensate flow pipe 40, the opening or closing of the condensate flow pipe 40 can be controlled by controlling the opening or closing of the first valve 41. For example, when the first valve 41 is open, the condensate flow pipe 40 is open, and the condensate output from the air conditioning unit 10 can be transmitted to the water storage device 30 through the condensate flow pipe 40; when the first valve 41 is closed, the condensate flow pipe 40 is closed, and the condensate output from the air conditioning unit 10 cannot be transmitted to the water storage device 30 through the condensate flow pipe 40. For example, the control module is electrically connected to the first valve 41, and the control module can correspondingly control the opening or closing of the first valve 41.

[0030] Furthermore, the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 includes a liquid level detection unit 32. The liquid level detection unit 32 can detect the liquid level height inside the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30, and thus determine whether the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 is full of water. It can be understood that when the liquid level height inside the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, the condensate continuing to flow into the water storage device 30 will overflow from the first water storage chamber 31 through the corresponding overflow structure and enter the next water storage chamber 31. When the condensate overflows from the first water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 to the next water storage chamber 31, it indicates that the first water storage chamber 31 is full of water, and the same can be used to determine whether the next water storage chamber 31 is full of water. However, since the condensate in the last water storage chamber 31 of the water storage device 30 cannot overflow to other water storage chambers 31, an additional liquid level detection unit 32 is required to indirectly determine whether the water storage device 30 has reached its maximum condensate storage capacity. In one specific embodiment, when the liquid level in the last water storage chamber 31 of the water storage device 30 reaches the target liquid level, it indicates that the water storage device 30 has reached its maximum condensate storage capacity, all water storage chambers 31 in the water storage device 30 are full of water, and the condensate transfer process from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 can be stopped. Conversely, when the liquid level in the last water storage chamber 31 of the water storage device 30 does not reach the target liquid level, it indicates that the water storage device 30 has not reached its maximum condensate storage capacity, at least one water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 is not full of water, and the condensate transfer process from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 can continue. For example, the target liquid level height can be the set height corresponding to the overflow structure between the last water storage chamber 31 and its adjacent water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30. The control module is electrically connected to the liquid level detection unit 32, so when the liquid level height inside the last water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 reaches the target liquid level height, the control module controls the first valve 41 to close. At this time, the condensate flow pipe 40 can disconnect the condensate transmission process between the air conditioning equipment 10 and the water storage device 30.

[0031] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a first drain pipe 80, which includes a fourth valve 81. The input end of the first drain pipe 80 is connected to the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40, and the output end of the first drain pipe 80 is connected to the sewer. When the fourth valve 81 is open or closed, the first drain pipe 80 is opened or closed accordingly.

[0032] Specifically, the first drain pipe 80 includes a fourth valve 81. When the fourth valve 81 is open or closed, the first drain pipe 80 is correspondingly open or closed. Thus, by providing the fourth valve 81 on the first drain pipe 80, the opening or closing of the first drain pipe 80 can be controlled by adjusting the opening or closing of the fourth valve 81. For example, when the fourth valve 81 is open, the first drain pipe 80 is open, and the condensate water output by the air conditioning unit 10 can be discharged into the sewer through the condensate water flow pipe 40 and the first drain pipe 80; when the fourth valve 81 is closed, the first drain pipe 80 is closed, and the condensate water output by the air conditioning unit 10 cannot be discharged into the sewer through the condensate water flow pipe 40 and the first drain pipe 80. For example, if the control module is electrically connected to the fourth valve 81, the control module can correspondingly control the opening or closing of the fourth valve 81. In one specific embodiment, when the liquid level in the last water storage chamber 31 of the water storage device 30 reaches the target liquid level, the control module controls the first valve 41 to close while simultaneously controlling the fourth valve 81 to open. At this time, the condensate flow pipe 40 can disconnect the condensate transmission process between the air conditioning equipment 10 and the water storage device 30, and the condensate output by the air conditioning equipment 10 that cannot be stored in the water storage device 30 can be discharged into the sewer.

[0033] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a control module ( Figure 1 (Not shown in the diagram.) Exemplarily, the control module can be located inside the air conditioning unit 10, or inside the range hood unit 20, or inside the water storage device 30. This embodiment is merely an example and is not intended to limit the scope. The specific location of the control module can be reasonably selected according to the actual situation, and will not be described in detail later. The control module can be electrically connected to the air conditioning unit 10 and the range hood unit 20 respectively. Each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 includes a temperature detection unit 33, which is used to detect the temperature inside the corresponding water storage chamber 31. The control module is electrically connected to each temperature detection unit 33. The control module is used to adjust the order in which the condensate stored in each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 is output to the range hood unit 20 according to the temperature inside each water storage chamber 31, so as to use the condensate to clean and / or remove oil fumes from the inside of the range hood unit 20.

[0034] Specifically, each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 includes a temperature detection unit 33. The temperature detection unit 33 can detect the temperature inside the corresponding water storage chamber 31 and transmit it to the control module. It is understood that the temperature inside the water storage chamber 31 is also the temperature of the condensate inside the water storage chamber 31, and different condensate temperatures result in different cleaning or fume removal effects. The control module is electrically connected to each temperature detection unit 33, allowing the control module to receive the temperature inside each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 and adjust the order in which the condensate stored in each water storage chamber 31 is output to the range hood 20 based on the temperature of each chamber, using the appropriately temperatured condensate to clean and / or remove grease from the interior of the range hood 20. In this way, the output sequence of the corresponding condensate can be controlled by temperature grading, making full use of the advantages of condensate at different temperatures (for example, high-temperature condensate can dissolve oil stains, while low-temperature condensate can cool and condense; high temperature and low temperature are two relative concepts, with the temperature corresponding to high-temperature condensate being higher than that of low-temperature condensate, but this embodiment does not make specific limitations or special requirements on the specific temperature of the condensate, which can be determined according to the actual operation of the air conditioning equipment 10). Selecting condensate at different temperatures for different uses is beneficial to achieving optimal cleaning or oil fume removal effects compared to the disordered mixing and output control process, and also realizes an automated and precise cleaning process without manual intervention. For example, if high-temperature condensate has a stronger dissolving ability for oil stains adhering to the inside of the range hood 20, the control module can select the water storage chamber 31 with the highest temperature and prioritize using the condensate stored in this chamber to clean the inside of the range hood 20. After the condensate stored in the highest-temperature water storage chamber 31 is used up, the other water storage chambers 31 are used in sequence from high temperature to low temperature to clean the inside of the range hood 20. Similarly, if low-temperature condensate has a stronger cooling and condensing ability for the oily fumes adsorbed inside the range hood 20, the control module can select the water storage chamber 31 with the lowest temperature and prioritize using the condensate stored in this chamber to remove oily fumes from the inside of the range hood 20. After the condensate stored in the lowest-temperature water storage chamber 31 is used up, the other water storage chambers 31 are used in sequence from low temperature to high temperature to remove oily fumes from the inside of the range hood 20.

[0035] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1The smoke hood 20 includes a water curtain unit 21 inside; the smoke hood 20 includes an oil fume removal mode; the water curtain unit 21 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50, and the control module is used to control the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21 in sequence according to the arrangement order of the low temperature to high temperature inside each water storage chamber 31 in the oil fume removal mode. The water curtain unit 21 atomizes the received condensate or forms a continuous water curtain to remove oil fumes from the inside of the smoke hood 20 using condensate.

[0036] Specifically, the interior of the range hood 20 includes a water curtain unit 21. Exemplarily, the water curtain unit 21 can be located inside the corresponding smoke collection chamber of the range hood 20, or, exemplarily, at a position inside the range hood 20 corresponding to the smoke inlet. The water curtain unit 21 can atomize the received condensate or form a continuous water curtain. When the oily fume gas adsorbed by the smoke inlet of the range hood 20 passes through this water curtain, the water curtain can capture oily fume particles and cool and condense them, effectively dissolving the oil stains, thereby reducing the concentration of oily fume emissions and cleaning the interior of the range hood 20. The water curtain unit 21 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50. When the water curtain unit 21 inside the range hood equipment 20 needs to use condensate to remove oil fumes, the condensate transmission pipe 50 can transmit the condensate stored in at least any one of the water storage chambers 31 to the inside of the range hood equipment 20 to ensure efficient oil fume removal. That is, in the oil fume removal mode, the control module can control the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21 in sequence according to the arrangement order of the low temperature to high temperature inside each water storage chamber 31, so as to use the condensate to remove oil fumes from the inside of the range hood equipment 20. For example, taking a water storage device 30 that includes three water storage chambers 31, namely a first water storage chamber 311, a second water storage chamber 312, and a third water storage chamber 313, the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 are arranged sequentially. The first water storage chamber 311 is connected to the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40. If, among the three water storage chambers 31, the temperature inside the first water storage chamber 311 is greater than the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312, and the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312 is greater than the temperature inside the third water storage chamber 313, then the control... In the fume removal mode, the module can prioritize controlling the third water storage chamber 313 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the condensate stored in the third water storage chamber 313 is used up, the module can then control the second water storage chamber 312 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the condensate stored in the second water storage chamber 312 is used up, the module can then control the first water storage chamber 311 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311 is used up, the process of transferring condensate from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 needs to be restarted.It should also be noted that during the process of the third water storage chamber 313, the second water storage chamber 312, and the first water storage chamber 311 sequentially outputting the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21, if the range hood 20 turns off the oil fume removal mode, the third water storage chamber 313, the second water storage chamber 312, and the first water storage chamber 311 will all stop outputting the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the range hood 20 turns on the oil fume removal mode again, the internal temperature of the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 will be re-evaluated, and the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 will be used to remove oil fumes from the inside of the range hood 20.

[0037] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a condensate water curtain pipe 60, which includes a second valve 61. The input end of the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50, and the output end of the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is connected to the water curtain unit 21. When the second valve 61 is open or closed, the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is opened or closed accordingly.

[0038] Specifically, the condensate water curtain pipe 60 includes a second valve 61. When the second valve 61 is open or closed, the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is correspondingly open or closed. Thus, by setting the second valve 61 on the condensate water curtain pipe 60, the opening or closing of the condensate water curtain pipe 60 can be controlled by adjusting the opening or closing of the second valve 61. For example, when the second valve 61 is open, the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is open, and the condensate output from the condensate water transmission pipe 50 can be transmitted to the water curtain unit 21 through the condensate water curtain pipe 60, so that a water curtain can be formed inside the range hood 20, corresponding to the range hood 20 activating its fume extraction mode. When the second valve 61 is closed, the condensate water curtain pipe 60 is closed, and the condensate output from the condensate water transmission pipe 50 cannot be transmitted to the water curtain unit 21 through the condensate water curtain pipe 60, so a water curtain will not be formed inside the range hood 20, corresponding to the range hood 20 deactivating its fume extraction mode. For example, if the control module is electrically connected to the second valve 61, the control module can control the second valve 61 to open or close accordingly. In one specific embodiment, when the range hood 20 is in the fume removal mode, the control module can control the second valve 61 to open, thereby opening the condensate water curtain pipe 60 to establish a connection between the condensate transmission pipe 50 and the water curtain unit 21. In another specific embodiment, when the range hood 20 is in the fume removal mode, the control module can control the second valve 61 to close, thereby closing the condensate water curtain pipe 60 to disconnect the connection between the condensate transmission pipe 50 and the water curtain unit 21.

[0039] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a second drain pipe 90; the inlet of the second drain pipe 90 is connected to the bottom of the range hood equipment 20, and the outlet of the second drain pipe 90 is connected to the sewer.

[0040] Specifically, during the operation of the fume extraction mode of the range hood 20, the water curtain formed by the water curtain unit 21 and the dissolved oil stains can eventually flow into the sewer through the second drainage pipe 90. Furthermore, by way of example, the output ends of the first drainage pipe 80 and the second drainage pipe 90 can also be connected, discharging into the same sewer.

[0041] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The inside of the range hood equipment 20 includes a spray unit 22; the range hood equipment 20 includes a cleaning mode; the spray unit 22 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50, and the control module is used to control the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22 in sequence according to the high temperature to low temperature arrangement inside each water storage chamber 31 in the cleaning mode. The spray unit 22 atomizes the received condensate into fine droplets or forms a high-pressure spray water flow to clean the inside of the range hood equipment 20 with condensate.

[0042] Specifically, the interior of the range hood 20 includes a spray unit 22. Exemplarily, the spray unit 22 can be located inside the main unit housing of the range hood 20, or, exemplarily, at a position inside the range hood 20 corresponding to the air duct or smoke outlet. The spray unit 22 can atomize the received condensate into fine droplets or form a high-pressure spray stream, which is then directed and sprayed onto areas of oil residue inside the range hood 20, such as the inner wall of the air duct or the impeller. This quickly softens and dissolves stubborn oil residue, and also washes away the dissolved oil residue, which ultimately flows into the sewer with the wastewater. The spray unit 22 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50. When the spray unit 22 inside the range hood equipment 20 needs to use condensate for cleaning, the condensate transmission pipe 50 can transmit the condensate stored in at least any one of the water storage chambers 31 to the inside of the range hood equipment 20 to ensure efficient cleaning. That is, in the cleaning mode, the control module can control the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22 in sequence according to the high temperature to low temperature arrangement inside each water storage chamber 31, so as to use the condensate to clean the inside of the range hood equipment 20. For example, taking a water storage device 30 comprising three water storage chambers 31, namely a first water storage chamber 311, a second water storage chamber 312, and a third water storage chamber 313, arranged sequentially, wherein the first water storage chamber 311 is connected to the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40, if, among the three water storage chambers 31, the temperature inside the first water storage chamber 311 is greater than the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312, and the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312 is greater than the temperature inside the third water storage chamber 313, then the control... In cleaning mode, the control module can prioritize controlling the first water storage chamber 311 to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311 is used up, it controls the second water storage chamber 312 to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the condensate stored in the second water storage chamber 312 is used up, it controls the third water storage chamber 313 to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the condensate stored in the third water storage chamber 313 is used up, the process of transferring condensate from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 needs to be restarted. It should also be noted that during the process of the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 sequentially outputting the stored condensate to the spray unit 22, if the range hood equipment 20 closes the cleaning mode, the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 will all stop outputting the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the range hood equipment 20 opens the cleaning mode again, the internal temperature of the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 will be reassessed, and the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 will be used to clean the inside of the range hood equipment 20.

[0043] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a condensate spray pipe 70, which includes a third valve 71. The input end of the condensate spray pipe 70 is connected to the output end of the condensate transmission pipe 50, and the output end of the condensate spray pipe 70 is connected to the spray unit 22. When the third valve 71 is open or closed, the condensate spray pipe 70 is opened or closed accordingly.

[0044] Specifically, the condensate spray pipe 70 includes a third valve 71. When the third valve 71 is open or closed, the condensate spray pipe 70 is correspondingly open or closed. Thus, by setting the third valve 71 on the condensate spray pipe 70, the opening or closing of the condensate spray pipe 70 can be controlled by adjusting the opening or closing of the third valve 71. For example, when the third valve 71 is open, the condensate spray pipe 70 is open, and the condensate output from the condensate transmission pipe 50 can be transmitted to the spray unit 22 through the condensate spray pipe 70, so that a spray water flow is subsequently formed inside the range hood 20, corresponding to the range hood 20 activating its cleaning mode. When the third valve 71 is closed, the condensate spray pipe 70 is closed, and the condensate output from the condensate transmission pipe 50 cannot be transmitted to the spray unit 22 through the condensate spray pipe 70, so no spray water flow is formed inside the range hood 20, corresponding to the range hood 20 deactivating its cleaning mode. For example, if the control module is electrically connected to the third valve 71, the control module can control the opening or closing of the third valve 71 accordingly. In one specific embodiment, when the range hood 20 is in cleaning mode, the control module can control the third valve 71 to open, thereby opening the condensate spray pipe 70 to establish a connection between the condensate transmission pipe 50 and the spray unit 22. In another specific embodiment, when the range hood 20 is in cleaning mode, the control module can control the third valve 71 to close, thereby closing the condensate spray pipe 70 to disconnect the connection between the condensate transmission pipe 50 and the spray unit 22.

[0045] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 The air conditioning range hood system also includes a second drain pipe 90; the inlet of the second drain pipe 90 is connected to the bottom of the range hood equipment 20, and the outlet of the second drain pipe 90 is connected to the sewer.

[0046] Specifically, during the cleaning mode of the range hood 20, the spray water and dissolved oil generated by the spray unit 22 can eventually flow into the sewer through the second drain pipe 90. Furthermore, by way of example, the output ends of the first drain pipe 80 and the second drain pipe 90 can also be connected and discharged into the same sewer.

[0047] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 1 Each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 also includes a water pump unit 34, which is used to pump the condensate stored inside the water storage chamber 31 into the condensate transmission pipe 50. The control module is electrically connected to each water pump unit 34. The control module is used to obtain the operating level of the range hood 20 during cooking, and according to the operating level of the range hood 20 and the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating level and the water pump operating level, it controls each water pump unit 34 to work according to the target operating level. The preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating level and the water pump operating level can be determined according to the amount of condensate required for the operation of the range hood and the transmission capacity of the condensate transmission pipe 50.

[0048] Specifically, each water storage chamber 31 in the water storage device 30 also includes a water pump unit 34. For example, the water pump unit 34 can be connected to the input end of the condensate transmission pipe 50, and can pump the condensate stored inside the water storage chamber 31 into the condensate transmission pipe 50. For example, the water pump unit 34 can pressurize and extract the condensate stored inside the water storage chamber 31, so that it can be transmitted via the condensate transmission pipe 50 to the water curtain unit 21 for the desiccation process of the range hood equipment 20; or, for example, the water pump unit 34 can pressurize and extract the condensate stored inside the water storage chamber 31, so that it can be transmitted via the condensate transmission pipe 50 to the spray unit 22 for the cleaning process of the range hood equipment 20. The control module is electrically connected to each water pump unit 34. The control module can obtain the operating level of the range hood 20 during cooking and, based on the operating level of the range hood 20 and the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating level and the water pump operating level, control each water pump unit 34 to operate at the target operating level. For example, the operating level of the water pump unit 34 can be adjusted according to different cooking scenarios or the amount of oil fumes to adjust the intensity of the water curtain, such as the water output, water pressure, and water output time. Alternatively, the operating level of the water pump unit 34 can be adjusted according to different cooking scenarios or the amount of oil fumes to adjust the intensity of the spray water flow, such as the water output, water pressure, and water output time. For example, when the operating speed of the range hood 20 is low, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 can be determined to be low based on the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating speed and the water pump operating speed; when the operating speed of the range hood 20 is medium, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 can be determined to be medium based on the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating speed and the water pump operating speed; when the operating speed of the range hood 20 is high, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 can be determined to be high based on the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating speed and the water pump operating speed.

[0049] Based on this, in a more easily understood way, the water curtain formed by the water curtain unit 21 can also be linked to the operating level of the smoke hood equipment 20 for control. The water flow rate and duration of the water curtain are determined according to the operating level of the smoke hood equipment 20. For example, when the operating level of the smoke hood equipment 20 is low, based on the preset mapping relationship between the operating level of the smoke hood and the intensity of the water curtain, it can be determined that the water flow rate and duration of the water curtain are relatively small. Simultaneously, the target operating level of the water pump unit 34 is determined to be low, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the water curtain. The operation of the smoke hood equipment 20... When the setting is medium, based on the preset mapping relationship between the operating setting of the range hood and the intensity of the water curtain, it can be determined that the water flow and duration of the water curtain are moderate. At the same time, the target operating setting of the water pump unit 34 is set to medium, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the water curtain. When the operating setting of the range hood 20 is high, based on the preset mapping relationship between the operating setting of the range hood and the intensity of the water curtain, it can be determined that the water flow and duration of the water curtain are large. At the same time, the target operating setting of the water pump unit 34 is set to high, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the water curtain. Similarly, the spray water flow generated by the spray unit 22 can also be linked to the operating speed of the range hood 20 for control. The water flow intensity and duration of the spray water flow are determined based on the operating speed of the range hood 20. For example, when the range hood 20 is operating at a low speed, based on the preset mapping relationship between the range hood operating speed and the spray water flow intensity, it can be determined that the spray water flow is small and the spray water flow duration is short. Simultaneously, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is determined to be low, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the spray water flow. When the range hood 20 is operating at a medium speed... Based on the preset mapping relationship between the operating speed of the flue gas fan and the intensity of the spray water flow, it can be determined that the spray water flow is medium and the spray water flow time is medium. At the same time, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is determined to be medium, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the spray water flow. When the operating speed of the flue gas fan 20 is high, based on the preset mapping relationship between the operating speed of the flue gas fan and the intensity of the spray water flow, it can be determined that the spray water flow is large and the spray water flow time is long. At the same time, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is determined to be high, so that the output of the water pump unit 34 matches the output of the spray water flow.In this way, the system can accurately match the demand. When the range hood equipment 20 is running at low load, the corresponding water pump unit 34 also operates at low power to save energy. When the range hood equipment 20 is running at high load, the corresponding water pump unit 34 also operates at high power to ensure the cleaning and / or oil fume removal effect. In addition, the water pump unit 34 can adjust the operating level according to the demand to avoid wear caused by long-term full-load operation. At the same time, the reasonable condensate transmission pressure can also protect the condensate transmission pipe 50, condensate water curtain pipe 60 and condensate spray pipe 70, reduce the probability of pipe failure, and greatly improve the intelligence level of the air conditioning range hood system.

[0050] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for an air conditioning range hood system provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, exemplarily, the water storage device 30 includes three water storage chambers 31, namely a first water storage chamber 311, a second water storage chamber 312, and a third water storage chamber 313, arranged sequentially. The first water storage chamber 311 is connected to the output end of the condensate flow pipe 40, and the first, second, and third water storage chambers 311, 312, and 313 are respectively connected to the input end of the condensate transmission pipe 50. Furthermore, each of the first, second, and third water storage chambers 311, 312, and 313 is equipped with a temperature detection unit 33 and a water pump unit 34, and the third water storage chamber 313 is also equipped with a liquid level detection unit 32. When both the air conditioning equipment 10 and the range hood equipment 20 are in standby mode, the first valve 41, the second valve 61, the third valve 71, and the fourth valve 81 are all closed.

[0051] The air conditioning unit 10 includes a cooling mode. In cooling mode, the control module can control the first valve 41 to open, while simultaneously controlling the second valve 61, the third valve 71, and the fourth valve 81 to close. Water storage chambers 31 in the water storage device 30 begin storing water. The condensate water output from the air conditioning unit 10, heated after heat exchange, first enters the first water storage chamber 311. When the liquid level inside the first water storage chamber 311 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, the condensate water continuing to flow into the water storage device 30 will overflow from the first water storage chamber 311 through the overflow structure between the first and second water storage chambers 312, thus entering the second water storage chamber 312. Similarly, when the liquid level inside the second water storage chamber 312 reaches the height of the corresponding overflow structure, the condensate water continuing to flow into the water storage device 30 will overflow from the second water storage chamber 312 through the overflow structure between the second and third water storage chambers 313, thus entering the third water storage chamber 313. When the liquid level inside the third water storage chamber 313 reaches the target level, it indicates that the water storage device 30 has reached its maximum capacity for storing condensate, and all water storage chambers 31 in the water storage device 30 are full of water. At this point, the water storage device 30 has completed its water storage. The control module can control the first valve 41 to close, while the second valve 61 and the third valve 71 remain closed. Simultaneously, it controls the fourth valve 81 to open, discharging excess condensate from the air conditioning unit 10 into the sewer.

[0052] The range hood 20 includes a cleaning mode and a fume removal mode. The control module can receive the temperature inside each water storage chamber 31 of the water storage device 30 detected by the temperature detection unit 33, and adjust the order in which the condensate stored in each water storage chamber 31 is output to the range hood 20 according to the temperature inside each water storage chamber 31. The condensate at the appropriate temperature is used to clean and / or remove grease from the interior of the range hood 20. When the user turns on the range hood 20, that is, in the fume removal mode, the control module controls the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21 in sequence according to the low to high temperature of the water storage chamber 31, so as to remove grease from the interior of the range hood 20 using the condensate. For example, if the temperature inside the first water storage chamber 311 is higher than the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312, and the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312 is higher than the temperature inside the third water storage chamber 313, the control module can control the second valve 61 to open, control the third valve 71 to close, and simultaneously control the water pump unit 34 in the third water storage chamber 313 to start. This utilizes the lower-temperature condensate to form a water curtain inside the corresponding smoke collection chamber of the range hood 20. When the oily fumes absorbed by the smoke inlet of the range hood 20 pass through this water curtain, it can capture oily fume particles and cool and condense them, effectively dissolving the oil stains, thereby reducing the concentration of oily fumes and cleaning the interior of the range hood 20. Furthermore, after the oily fumes mix with the water curtain, they can be discharged into the sewer through the second drainage pipe 90 connected to the bottom of the range hood 20. After the condensate stored in the third water storage chamber 313 is used up, the second water storage chamber 312 is controlled to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the condensate stored in the second water storage chamber 312 is used up, the first water storage chamber 311 is controlled to output the stored condensate to the water curtain unit 21. After the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311 is used up, the process of transferring condensate from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 needs to be restarted. It should also be noted that, during this process, the operating speed of the water pump unit 34 installed in the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 can be adjusted accordingly to the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20. For example, when the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is low, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is low; when the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is medium, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is medium; and when the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is high, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 is high.

[0053] Furthermore, when the user turns off the range hood 20, the control module can, in cleaning mode, control the corresponding water storage chamber 31 to sequentially output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22 according to the high-to-low temperature arrangement of the internal temperatures of each water storage chamber 31, so as to use the condensate to clean the inside of the range hood 20. For example, if the temperature inside the first water storage chamber 311 is higher than the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312, and the temperature inside the second water storage chamber 312 is higher than the temperature inside the third water storage chamber 313, then the control module can control the third valve 71 to open, control the second valve 61 to close, and simultaneously control the water pump unit 34 in the first water storage chamber 311 to turn on. The higher-temperature condensate forms a spray water flow inside the corresponding main unit of the range hood 20, spraying and cleaning the air duct or smoke outlet, quickly softening and dissolving stubborn grease, and also washing away the dissolved grease, which eventually flows into the sewer with the sewage. After the condensate stored in the first water storage chamber 311 is used up, the second water storage chamber 312 is controlled to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the condensate stored in the second water storage chamber 312 is used up, the third water storage chamber 313 is controlled to output the stored condensate to the spray unit 22. After the condensate stored in the third water storage chamber 313 is used up, the process of transferring condensate from the air conditioning equipment 10 to the water storage device 30 needs to be restarted. It should also be noted that, during this process, the operating speed of the water pump unit 34 installed in the first water storage chamber 311, the second water storage chamber 312, and the third water storage chamber 313 can be adjusted accordingly to the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20. For example, if the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is low and it has been used for a period of time, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 will be low; if the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is medium and it has been used for a period of time, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 will be medium; if the operating speed of the range hood equipment 20 is high and it has been used for a period of time, the target operating speed of the water pump unit 34 will be high.

[0054] It should be understood that the various forms of processes shown above can be used, with steps reordered, added, or deleted. For example, the steps described in this invention can be executed in parallel, sequentially, or in different orders, as long as the desired result of the technical solution of this invention can be achieved, and this is not limited herein.

[0055] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention.
