They are mainly used to absorb and filter the fumes generated during cooking to keep indoor air clean and reduce the harm of fumes to the environment and human health. One of the core components of the range hood is the grease sump, whose main function is to collect and store the inhaled grease particles.

[0003] However, in the existing range hood design, the grease collection tank usually occupies a relatively large space in order to increase the capacity for grease collection. Although this design can extend the cleaning cycle to a certain extent, it also brings a series of problems and inconveniences. First, the large area of ​​the grease collection tank increases the overall size of the range hood, which is a major challenge for kitchen environments with limited space. Secondly, due to the increase in the area of ​​the grease collection tank, cleaning becomes more cumbersome and time-consuming. Large-area grease accumulation is not only difficult to completely remove, but may also cause the grease to deteriorate, produce odors, and affect the overall hygiene of the kitchen. Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements to it. Utility Model Content

[0023] A first avoidance groove 71 is provided on the panel 3 at a position corresponding to the oil cup groove 7 , and the oil collecting groove 8 can be detachably installed into the oil cup groove 7 from the position of the first avoidance groove 71 .

[0024] The smoke guide plate 4 comprises a movable plate 41 hingedly mounted on the top of the panel 3 in an upward flipping manner, and a fixed plate 42 fixedly mounted on the panel 3 , wherein the fixed plate 42 is located below the movable plate 41 .

[0025] A second air avoidance groove 72 is provided on the fixing plate 42 corresponding to the position of the first air avoidance groove 71 , and the first air avoidance groove 71 and the second air avoidance groove 72 are overlapped, and the oil collecting groove 8 can be detachably installed into the oil cup groove 7 from the positions of the first air avoidance groove 71 and the second air avoidance groove 72 .

[0026] The oil collecting tank 8 comprises a collecting box 81 and a decorative cover 82 at the front end thereof, and the decorative cover 82 is embedded in the second air-avoiding groove 72 .

[0027] The collecting box 81 is made of a transparent material, and the middle of the decorative cover 82 is hollowed out to form an observation window 83 .

[0028] Working principle: The present invention proposes an innovative oil collection structure for range hoods, which aims to improve the efficiency of oil fume purification and simplify the cleaning and maintenance process of the equipment. When the range hood is turned on, the oil fume generated by cooking is sucked in through the smoke inlet located on the panel. A smoke guide plate is provided outside the smoke inlet, which is used to initially guide the oil fume to flow smoothly into the equipment and reduce the escape of oil fume. After the oil fume enters the oil collection chamber, it will contact the oil filter installed inside. After the oil filter contacts the oil fume, the oil filter holes on it are used to separate the oil fume from the oil and dirt, so that the oil gas in the oil fume condenses, and the oil dirt condensed on the oil filter drips or flows into the oil collection chamber through the bottom of the oil filter. The oil guide plate at the bottom of the oil collection chamber guides the oil dirt. These oil guide plates are specially designed to be high on both sides and low in the middle in a "V" shape. This unique structure uses gravity to effectively guide the grease to flow to the lowest point of the plate.

[0029] The lowest point of the oil guide plate is provided with oil leakage holes, through which the grease is guided into the oil collecting tank directly below. The oil collecting tank is designed to be detachable. When the oil accumulates to a certain extent, the user can disassemble the oil collecting tank, which is convenient for the user to clean and maintain.

[0030] Compared with traditional technology, the "V"-shaped design of the oil guide plate in this case not only enhances the contact area between the oil smoke and the oil guide plate, thereby improving the grease separation efficiency, but also ensures that the grease can flow quickly and directly to the oil leakage hole through the precise inclination angle design, which reduces the residual grease in the oil collecting chamber and reduces the risk of grease accumulation and deterioration.

[0031] Compared with the bulky oil collection tank in the traditional design, the miniaturized design of the oil collection tank in the present invention greatly reduces the cleaning burden of the user. The small oil collection tank is not only convenient for manual cleaning, but also more suitable for deep cleaning in the dishwasher, providing a more humane and hygienic use experience.

[0032] Furthermore: The detachable design of the oil collecting tank provides great convenience for users. Users can easily remove the oil collecting tank from the range hood and clean and maintain it separately, which not only simplifies the cleaning process but also helps to maintain the optimal operating state of the equipment. In addition, by optimizing the size of the oil collecting tank and the layout of the overall oil collecting structure, the present invention makes the appearance of the range hood more compact and beautiful, which is more suitable for the space and design requirements of modern family kitchens. In addition, the miniaturized oil collecting tank also means that there is more space inside the range hood for installing other efficient oil fume purification components, thereby further improving the overall purification efficiency.

[0033] Through the above-mentioned design and technical optimization, the oil collection structure of the range hood of the present invention not only improves the efficiency and effect of oil fume purification, but also greatly improves the user's use and maintenance experience, reflecting the in-depth consideration of functionality and humanized needs in the design of modern kitchen appliances, so it can be widely promoted and used.

[0034] The above shows and describes the basic principle and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. The technicians in this industry should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
