Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a range hood, in particular to an oil path structure of an air outlet hood of the range hood. Background Art

[0002] Existing range hoods are generally equipped with an air hood at the fan outlet, which has the function of gathering air and guiding the flow, and connecting the range hood and the air outlet pipe. At present, the fans of range hoods are all placed vertically, and the fan outlets are vertically facing upward. The conventional installation method of the air hood is to install it outside the fan frame, which is generally sealed by a gasket, and fixed with screws and buckles on the end face. It is also mostly installed in a vertical direction, so there is no oil accumulation problem at the interface of the air hood. For range hoods with tilted fans, the fan outlet is tilted, and the connection between the air hood and the fan outlet is also tilted. At this time, if a conventional gasket sealing structure is used, there is a risk of oil leakage in the air hood. The prior art discloses an oil circuit structure for an air outlet hood, such as the Chinese utility model patent No. 202221537499.6 (authorization announcement No. CN 217844016 U), which discloses "An air outlet hood mounting structure and a range hood using the mounting structure". The range hood forms an air outlet extending into the fan system on the air outlet hood, which can cooperate with the lower edge of the air outlet. This not only makes the air outlet hood an integrated structure at the connection with the fan frame, and does not leak oil at the connection, but also makes the oil circuit located in the fan frame. The patent solves the oil leakage problem of the horizontally arranged air outlet hood, and the oil circuit problem of the obliquely arranged air outlet hood needs to be improved accordingly. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an oil circuit structure of an air outlet hood which can avoid oil leakage of an air outlet hood placed obliquely in view of the above-mentioned existing technical status.

[0007] The sealing gasket can have a variety of structures. Preferably, the sealing gasket includes a sealing gasket body, which is annular and clamped between the bottom of the air outlet hood and the fan frame. The outer edge of the sealing gasket body extends upward to form an outer extension wall, and the outer extension wall is wrapped around the outer peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet hood.

[0008] Further preferably, the inner edge of the sealing gasket body extends upward to form an inner extension wall, and the inner extension wall is abutted against the inner peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet cover.

[0009] In order to allow the oil that breaks through the oil-blocking convex rib to flow into the fan frame, a fan frame oil leakage port is opened on the outer side of the oil-blocking convex rib, and the fan frame oil leakage port is lower than the fan frame oil dripping hole. In this way, triple protection is achieved for the oil, ensuring that the oil will not leak outside the fan frame.

[0010] In order to prevent oil from remaining on the fan frame, the fan frame has a horizontally arranged top plate and an inclined plate extending obliquely downward from the left edge or the right edge of the top plate, the fan frame air outlet is arranged on the inclined plate, and the fan frame oil leakage port is arranged at the lowest position of the inclined plate.

[0011] In order to improve the oil leakage effect, the fan rack has two oil leakage ports which are arranged at the front and rear sides of the oil dripping hole of the fan rack.

[0012] Further preferably, the air outlet of the fan frame is a square opening, and correspondingly, the air inlet of the air outlet cover is a square opening.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of any of the above schemes, the air outlet direction of the air outlet of the air outlet cover is vertically upward.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are: the fan frame air outlet of the air outlet hood oil circuit structure is arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane, the middle part of the lowest edge of the air outlet hood has a first outer protrusion, the sealing gasket is wrapped on the outer peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet hood, and a sealing gasket oil dripping hole is opened at the bottom of the second outer protrusion of the sealing gasket, and a fan frame oil dripping hole is opened on the fan frame, and the fan frame oil dripping hole is located directly below the sealing gasket oil dripping hole, so that the oil in the air outlet hood flows into the interior of the fan frame through the sealing gasket dripping hole and the fan frame oil dripping hole, effectively preventing oil leakage.

[0021] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the oil circuit structure of the air outlet cover 2 of this embodiment includes a fan frame 1, an air outlet cover 2 and a sealing pad 3. Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow B is right. The fan frame 1 has a horizontally arranged top plate 16 and an inclined plate 17 extending obliquely downward from the right edge of the top plate 16. The fan frame air outlet 11 is opened on the inclined plate 17, that is, the fan frame air outlet 11 is arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane, and the fan frame air outlet 11 is a square opening.

The air outlet direction of the air outlet of the air outlet hood 2 is vertically upward. Under the action of gravity, the oil inside the air outlet hood 2 flows along the inner wall of the air outlet hood 2 to the lowest point of the interface between the air outlet hood 2 and the fan frame 1.

[0023] The middle of the lowest edge of the air outlet cover 2 has a first outer protrusion 21, the sealing gasket 3 has a second outer protrusion 31 matched with the first outer protrusion 21, a sealing gasket oil dripping hole 32 is opened at the bottom of the second outer protrusion 31, and a fan frame oil dripping hole 12 is opened on the fan frame 1, and the fan frame oil dripping hole 12 is located directly below the sealing gasket oil dripping hole 32. The oil accumulates in the middle of the lowest edge of the air outlet cover 2, and the sealing gasket oil dripping hole 32 and the fan frame oil dripping hole 12 constitute the first layer of protection for the oil circuit, and the accumulated oil flows down through the sealing gasket oil dripping hole 32 and the fan frame oil dripping hole 12.

[0024] The sealing gasket 3 is installed between the air outlet cover 2 and the fan frame 1. The sealing gasket 3 includes a sealing gasket body 33. The sealing gasket body 33 is annular and is clamped between the bottom of the air outlet cover 2 and the fan frame 1. The sealing gasket 3 is wrapped around the outer peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet cover 2. Specifically, the outer edge of the sealing gasket body 33 extends upward to form an outer extension wall 34. The outer extension wall 34 is wrapped around the outer peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet cover 2 to prevent oil from flowing out. The inner edge of the sealing gasket body 33 extends upward to form an inner extension wall 35. The inner extension wall 35 is attached to the inner peripheral wall of the bottom of the air outlet cover 2.

[0025] An oil-blocking rib 13 is formed on the periphery of the fan frame air outlet 11, and the oil-blocking rib 13 is arranged around the periphery of the sealing gasket 3. A mounting hole 14 is opened in the area between the fan frame air outlet 11 and the oil-blocking rib 13, and the air outlet cover 2 and the sealing gasket 3 are mounted on the fan frame 1 through the mounting hole 14. The smoke-blocking rib 13 constitutes the second layer of protection for the oil circuit, and the oil-blocking rib can block the oil leaking from the sealing gasket, and the blocked oil can flow down from the sealing gasket oil drip hole 32 and the fan frame oil drip hole 12.

[0026] In this embodiment, a fan frame oil leakage port 15 is opened on the outer side of the oil blocking rib 13, the fan frame oil leakage port 15 is lower than the fan frame oil dripping hole 12, and is located at the lowest position of the inclined plate 17. There are two fan frame oil leakage ports 15 and they are arranged on the front and rear sides of the fan frame oil dripping hole 12. The fan frame oil leakage port 15 constitutes the third level of protection of the oil circuit to ensure that the oil will not leak to the outside of the fan frame 1.
