DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The utility model provides the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings to help fully understand the various embodiments of the utility model as defined by the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to help understanding, but these details should be regarded as exemplary only. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the utility model.

[0026] In the description of the present invention, descriptions of orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., and orientations or positional relationships indicated are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0027] It will be understood that when one element (eg, a first element) is “connected” to another element (eg, a second element), the element may be directly connected to the other element or an intervening element (eg, a third element) may be present between the element and the other element.

[0028] The embodiment of the utility model provides a range hood that is easy to install. Figure 1-3As shown, the range hood body 100 is comprised of elastic clips 300 disposed at both ends in the length direction of the range hood body 100. The elastic clips 300 can be elastically contracted or expanded. When the two elastic clips 300 are contracted, the distance between the two elastic clips 300 is relatively reduced. When the two elastic clips 300 are expanded outward, the distance between the two elastic clips 300 is relatively increased.

[0029] The range hood body 100 of this embodiment is used to be fixed on the bottom plate 200, which can be a plate at the bottom of a cabinet or other plate for installing the range hood. The bottom plate 200 is reserved with an opening 210 for the range hood body 100 to be inserted. The opening 210 is used to install the range hood body 100 and also allows oil smoke to pass through so that the range hood body 100 can extract the oil smoke.

[0030] When installing the range hood of this embodiment, the range hood body 100 is inserted into the opening 210 from the bottom of the bottom plate 200. During the insertion process, the elastic clip 300 is squeezed by the edge of the opening 210 and shrinks, and the distance between the two elastic clips 300 is reduced. The elastic clip 300 can pass through the opening 210 and be located above the bottom plate 200, and the range hood body 100 can be further inserted. After the elastic clip 300 passes through the opening 210, the elastic clip 300 will be elastically expanded under the action of elastic force, and the distance between the two elastic clips 300 will increase, and then buckle on the top surface of the bottom plate 200, playing the role of supporting and fixing the range hood body 100, so that the range hood body 100 will not fall, and the installation operator does not need to lift the range hood body 100, which is convenient for further fixing the range hood body 100 by screwing, etc., and the installation operator saves effort and the installation is more convenient.

[0031] In some embodiments, Figure 2-5 As shown, the elastic fastener 300 includes a fastener plate 310, a connecting seat 320 and an elastic member 330. The fastener plate 310 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 320, and the rotation axis of the fastener plate 310 and the connecting seat 320 is parallel to the width direction of the range hood body 100. The fastener plate 310 is shrunk or expanded outward by rotating. The two ends of the elastic member 330 are respectively connected to the fastener plate 310 and the connecting seat 320 to apply a force to the fastener plate 310 so that the fastener plate 310 is kept in an elastically expanded state.

[0032] When the range hood body 100 is inserted from the bottom of the bottom plate 200 into the opening 210, the buckle plate 310 is squeezed by the edge of the opening 210 and overcomes the force of the elastic member 330 to shrink, so that the buckle plate 310 can pass through the opening 210 and be located above the bottom plate 200. After the buckle plate 310 passes through the opening 210, the buckle plate 310 will return to the elastically expanded state under the action of the elastic force, and then keep the state of buckling on the top surface of the bottom plate 200, so as to stably support and fix the range hood body 100.

[0033] Furthermore, the snap plate 310 extends obliquely downward, and in the direction of extending downward, the snap plate 310 gradually moves away from the range hood body 100. In the process of inserting the range hood body 100 from the bottom of the bottom plate 200 into the opening 210, the edge of the opening 210 gradually squeezes the snap plate 310, so that the snap plate 310 rotates in the direction close to the range hood body 100, and then gradually shrinks inward, so that the snap plate 310 passes through the opening 210. This inclined structural design can adapt to the relative movement relationship between the snap plate 310 and the edge of the opening 210, so that the snap plate 310 can rotate smoothly, reduce the upward thrust applied by the operator, and further facilitate the installation of the range hood.

[0034] In some embodiments, Figure 2-5 As shown, the elastic clip 300 also includes a mounting seat 340, the connecting seat 320 is slidably connected with the mounting seat 340 in the vertical direction, and an adjustment mechanism 350 is provided on the mounting seat 340, and the adjustment mechanism 350 is used to adjust the position of the connecting seat 320 in the vertical direction, and thus the height of the clip plate 310 can be changed. Since the clip plate 310 needs to pass through the opening 210 and move to the top of the bottom plate 200, the clip plate 310 needs to be adapted to the thickness of the bottom plate 200. When the thickness of the bottom plate 200 is large, the clip plate 310 can be adjusted upward, and when the thickness of the bottom plate 200 is small, the clip plate 310 can be adjusted downward, so that the range hood can be installed for the bottom plates 200 of different thicknesses, and the adaptability of the entire range hood is stronger.

[0035] Furthermore, a receiving groove 341 extending in the vertical direction is provided on the side of the mounting seat 340, and the connecting seat 320 is provided in the receiving groove 341 and can slide along the receiving groove 341, thereby realizing the vertical sliding connection between the connecting seat 320 and the mounting seat 340. The receiving groove 341 has a good limiting effect on the connecting seat 320, so that the connecting seat 320 is not easy to deviate from the position.

[0036] Of course, according to actual needs, other structures such as guide rails may also be used to achieve the sliding connection between the connecting seat 320 and the mounting seat 340 along the vertical direction.

[0037] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism 350 includes a screw rod which is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 340 and extends in the vertical direction. The connecting seat 320 is provided with a threaded hole 321 which is adapted to the screw rod. The screw rod is passed through the threaded hole 321 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 321. At the same time, the connecting seat 320 abuts against the inner wall of the accommodating groove 341 to limit the rotation of the connecting seat 320 around the screw rod.

[0038] The screw rod and the threaded hole 321 of this embodiment cooperate to form a screw mechanism. When the screw rod rotates, the connection seat 320 can only move along the axial direction (vertical direction) of the screw rod due to the obstruction of the inner wall of the accommodating groove 341, thereby adjusting the vertical position of the connection seat 320. In this embodiment, the vertical position of the connection seat 320 can be adjusted by rotating the screw rod, and this adjustment mechanism is easier to operate.

[0039] In this embodiment, the screw can extend above the mounting seat 340, and a rotating head can be fixed on the top of the screw. The operator can drive the screw to rotate by driving the rotating head. The outer diameter of the rotating head is larger than the outer diameter of the screw, which makes operation more labor-saving for the operator.

[0040] In some embodiments, the snap plate 310 is provided with a rotating shaft 311 extending along the width direction of the range hood body 100, and the connecting seat 320 is provided with a rotating hole 322 adapted to the rotating shaft 311, the rotating hole 322 also extends along the width direction of the range hood body 100, and the diameter of the rotating hole 322 can be slightly larger than the diameter of the rotating shaft 311, the rotating shaft 311 is passed through the rotating hole 322 and can rotate in the rotating hole 322 to realize the rotational connection between the snap plate 310 and the connecting seat 320.

[0041] Furthermore, a cover plate 360 ​​is detachably fixed to the side of the mounting seat 340 where the accommodating groove 341 is provided, and a notch is formed on the side of the rotating hole 322 close to the cover plate 360, through which the rotating shaft 311 can enter into the rotating hole 322 or move out of the rotating hole 322, and the cover plate 360 ​​blocks the notch.

[0042] Since the cover plate 360 ​​is detachable, when assembling the snap plate 310, the rotating shaft 311 of the snap plate 310 is moved through the notch into the rotating hole 322, and then the cover plate 360 ​​is fixed to the mounting seat 340. The cover plate 360 ​​blocks the notch, and the rotating shaft 311 cannot be moved out of the rotating hole 322, so that the snap plate 310 and the connecting seat 320 remain in rotational connection, which facilitates the overall assembly. When the snap plate 310 needs to be disassembled, the cover plate 360 ​​is disassembled from the mounting seat 340, and the cover plate 360 ​​no longer blocks the notch, and the rotating shaft 311 can be moved out of the rotating hole 322 through the notch, and the snap plate 310 can be disassembled from the connecting seat 320, which also facilitates the disassembly of the overall structure.

[0043] In this embodiment, the cover plate 360 ​​can be detachably fixed to the mounting base 340 by screws.

[0044] Furthermore, the cover plate 360 ​​can cover the entire accommodating groove 341 to provide a certain degree of protection for the screw and the connecting seat 320. At the same time, the cover plate 360 ​​is provided with a through-groove 361, and the buckle plate 310 extends from the through-groove 361 so that the buckle plate 310 can be buckled on the top surface of the bottom plate 200.

[0045] In some embodiments, the elastic member 330 is a torsion spring, one rotating arm of the torsion spring is fixed on the connecting seat 320, a socket 312 is reserved on the snap plate 310, and the other rotating arm of the torsion spring is inserted into the socket 312 reserved on the snap plate 310 to provide torque through the torsion spring. External force is required to overcome the torque of the torsion spring so that the snap plate 310 can be rotated from the expanded state to the contracted state.

[0046] In some embodiments, the side panels 110 at both ends of the length direction of the range hood body 100 are provided with slots 111, the connection seat 320 is fixed on the inner side of the side panel 110, and the buckle plate 310 extends from the slot 111 so as not to affect the buckle plate 310 being buckled on the top surface of the bottom plate 200. On the one hand, the side panel 110 can protect other components of the elastic buckle 300 such as the connection seat 320, the elastic member 330, the mounting seat 340, the adjustment mechanism 350 and the cover plate 360. On the other hand, most of the components of the elastic buckle 300 are located on the inner side of the side panel 110 and do not protrude from the outer side of the side panel 110, which relatively ensures the flatness of the outer side of the side panel 110, so that the range hood body 100 can pass through the opening 210.

[0047] The terms and words used in the above description and claims are not limited to the literal meanings, but are only used by the applicant to enable a clear and consistent understanding of the utility model. Therefore, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the above description of various embodiments of the utility model is provided only for illustration, and not for limiting the utility model as defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
