Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an oil fume purification device, in particular to an oil fume extractor. Background Art
[0002] Range hoods have become one of the indispensable kitchen appliances in modern families. In order to improve the oil fume absorption effect, range hoods usually have a smoke baffle at the air inlet. When opened, it can expand the smoke collection range, thereby improving the oil fume absorption effect. The panels at the air inlet of the existing range hoods can usually be divided into one-stage (full screen), two-stage (one stage is a fixed panel, and one stage is a movable panel, i.e., a smoke baffle) and three-stage (the upper and lower stages are fixed panels, and the middle stage is a movable panel, i.e., a smoke baffle). For two-stage or three-stage range hoods, since there are at least two independent panels on the same plane, there is a step difference between the fixed panel and the movable panel when the hood is turned off, which affects the refinement and beauty of the product's appearance.
[0003] The common solution is to add a fixed decorative strip between the two panels, with the middle part of the decorative strip higher than the surface of the two panels to separate the two panels and visually reduce the user's perception of the step difference between the panels. For example, a Chinese patent with application number 202221697575.X discloses a smoke hood and a range hood, wherein the smoke hood includes: a front panel, the front panel includes an upper plate and a lower plate connected up and down, the upper plate is covered with an upper decorative plate, and the lower plate is hinged with a lower decorative plate, the smoke hood also includes a decorative strip, the decorative strip extends in the left and right directions, the decorative strip covers the edge formed at the connection between the upper plate and the lower plate, and is used to fill the gap between the upper decorative strip and the lower decorative strip, the circumferential side wall of the decorative strip includes a circular arc surface, and the upper edge of the lower decorative plate rotates around the circular arc surface to open or close.
[0004] However, the above structure does not really solve the step difference between the panels. After the range hood has been working for a long time, the step difference may increase. In addition, the gap between the smoke baffle with flip function and the fixed decorative strip will be difficult to control, affecting the movement reliability and user experience.

Since the embodiments disclosed in the present utility model can be set in different directions, these terms indicating directions are only for illustration and should not be regarded as limitations. For example, "up" and "down" are not necessarily limited to directions opposite to or consistent with the direction of gravity. In addition, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.
[0030] See also Figures 1 to 8A range hood includes a smoke hood 1 and a box body 2 disposed on the smoke hood 1, wherein the box body 2 is used to dispose a fan system (not shown). A fixed panel 31 is disposed at the bottom of the box body 2, and the smoke hood 1 has an opening, and a movable panel 32 is disposed at the opening, and the movable panel 32 can be flipped relative to the smoke hood 1, thereby serving as a commonly used smoke baffle. In the present embodiment, the opening of the smoke hood 1 is formed on its front side, and the front side of the smoke hood 1 gradually tilts downward from top to bottom, thereby making the whole range hood into a top and side suction integrated form. Alternatively, it may be a top suction type, a side suction type or a low suction type, etc., without limiting the form of the range hood. When selecting other forms of range hoods, it is known that the housing 2 is not necessary, and the fan system can be at least partially set inside the smoke hood 1, or can be set outside the smoke hood 1 and the housing 2, such as on the ceiling, etc., but it is necessary to ensure that the position of the fixed panel 31 remains unchanged. For example, the fixed panel 31 can be set on the smoke hood 1 for the side suction type, and the smoke hood 1 serves as the fixed installation base of the fixed panel 31 (the housing 2 is the fixed installation base in this embodiment). In addition, the fixed panel 31 and the movable panel 32 are arranged adjacent to each other, and a decorative strip 33 is arranged between the two. In this embodiment, only one fixed panel 31 is set to form a two-stage design. Alternatively, two fixed panels 31 can also be set, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the movable panel 32 to form a three-stage design.
[0031] In the closed state, the opening corresponding to the fume hood 1 and the movable panel 32 constitutes an air inlet 11. When the range hood is turned off, the movable panel 32 closes the air inlet 11, and when the range hood is turned on, the movable panel 32 opens the air inlet 11. Oil smoke can be sucked in through the air inlet 11, and then flow into the box body 2, and discharged by the fan system in the box body 2.
[0032] In order to enable the movable panel 32 to be turned over relative to the smoke collecting hood 1, one end of the movable panel 32 is configured as a connecting end, which is movably connected to the smoke collecting hood 1, and the other end opposite is configured as a free end, which can be turned over and opened in a direction away from the smoke collecting hood 1. Figure 2 The connection end is the front end of the movable panel 32 or a position close to the front end in the closed state, and the free end is the rear end of the movable panel 32 in the closed state. The decorative strip 33 is disposed adjacent to the connection end of the movable panel 32 .
[0033] The fixed panel 31 includes a first glass panel 311 and a first back panel 312, and the movable panel 32 includes a second glass panel 321 and a second back panel 322. The first back panel 312 can be fixed to the back of the first glass panel 311 by bonding, and the second back panel 322 can be fixed to the back of the second glass panel 321 by bonding. Here, "back" refers to the side of each glass panel facing the inside of the smoke hood 1, not directly facing the smoke. The decorative strip 33 can be integrally formed with a mounting portion 332, and the mounting portion 332 can be fixed to the first back panel 312 by screws, so that the decorative strip 33 is fixed to the fixed panel 31. The decorative strip 33 can be roughly cylindrical, and the transition position between it and the mounting portion 332 can be flat.
[0034] The movable panel 32 also includes a bracket 323, and the bracket 323 has two, one of which is arranged near the left end of the second back plate 322, and the other is arranged near the right end of the second back plate 322. The bracket 323 and the second back plate 322 can also be fixed to the second glass panel 321 by passing through the second back plate 322 in an adhesive manner, so that the second back plate 322 covers the bracket 323, which can improve the connection reliability. Each bracket 323 includes a flat bracket body 3231, a first flange 3232 formed by bending the bracket body 3231 into the smoke hood 1, and a second flange 3233 formed by bending the bracket body 3231 into the smoke hood 1, the first flange 3232 can be located at a position of the bracket body 3231 close to the outer side (left or right side) of the movable panel 32, and the second flange 3233 can be located in the middle of the bracket body 3231. The bracket body 3231 is fixed to the second glass panel 321, and the two flanges pass through the second back plate 322. A sleeve 3234 is provided at the end of the first flange 3232 close to the decorative strip 33 . A first connecting hole 3235 is formed in the sleeve 3234 . The first connecting hole 3235 passes through the left and right ends of the sleeve 3234 , and is preferably a circular hole.
[0035] The length of the decorative strip 33 ( Figure 1 The length of the decorative strip 33 is smaller than the length of the fixed panel 31 and the movable panel 32, and the length of the fixed panel 31 and the movable panel 32 are substantially the same. Figure 1The range hood further comprises a shaft support 34, and the shaft support 34 has two shaft supports 34, one of which is located on the left side of the decorative strip 33, and the other is located on the right side of the decorative strip 33. The shaft support 34 and the decorative strip 33 are arranged side by side, and both extend in the left and right directions. A second connecting hole 341 is formed in the shaft support 34, and the second connecting hole 341, the end hole 331 and the first connecting hole 3235 are all circular and coaxially arranged. The shaft support 34 is fixed to the smoke collecting hood 1, and the second connecting hole 341 runs through the left and right ends of the shaft support 34.
[0036] The range hood further comprises a rotating shaft pin 35, which comprises a head 351, a first connecting section 352 and a second connecting section 353 in sequence along its axial direction. The rotating shaft pin 35 is inserted from the end of the rotating shaft support 34 away from the decorative strip 33, and the size of the head 351 is larger than the first connecting section 352, so it abuts against the end of the second connecting hole 341 of the rotating shaft support 34 away from the decorative strip 33, and the first connecting section 352 is located in the second connecting hole 341, the second connecting hole 341 is a threaded hole, and the first connecting section 352 is a threaded section, and the two are threadedly connected, so that the rotating shaft support 34 and the rotating shaft pin 35 are fixed. The second connecting section 353 penetrates into the first connecting hole 3235 and the end hole 331. The second connecting section 353 is a smooth section without threads. The hole walls of the first connecting hole 3235 and the end hole 331 are smooth. Therefore, the sleeve 3234 (movable panel 32) can rotate relative to the rotation axis extending along the left and right directions of the rotating shaft pin 35. The rotating shaft pin 35 is coaxial with the first connecting hole 3235, providing a fixed rotation center for the rotation of the movable panel 32, and at the same time providing an axis for positioning the fixed panel 31.
[0037] By controlling the distance (d1) from the center of the end hole 331 of the decorative strip 33 to the bottom surface of the fixed panel 31 and the distance (d2) from the center of the sleeve 3234 to the bottom surface of the movable panel 32, so that d1=d2, the bottom surface of the fixed panel 31 and the bottom surface of the movable panel 32 can be made to be in the same plane, thereby eliminating the height step difference between the two surfaces. The "bottom surface" refers to the surface of each panel facing the smoke hood 1 and the box body 2 in the closed state.
[0038] The range hood further includes a motion mechanism, which can drive the smoke hood 1 to rise and fall relative to the housing 2, and when the smoke hood 1 rises and falls, the movable panel 32 can be flipped relative to the smoke hood 1. The motion mechanism includes a linear drive module, which drives the smoke hood 1 to rise and fall, and is not shown in the figure, such as a combination of a motor, a screw and a nut used in a commonly used range hood. The motion mechanism also includes a fixed frame 41, a rotating shaft 42 and a driving hinge 43, wherein the fixed frame 41 is fixed in the smoke hood 1, and a rotating shaft 42 (the axis extends in the left and right directions) is arranged on it, one end of the driving hinge 43 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 41 through the rotating shaft 42 (the rotating shaft 42 can be fixed relative to the fixed frame 41 and the driving hinge 43 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 42, or the rotating shaft 42 can rotate relative to the fixed frame 41 and is fixed to the driving hinge 43), and the other end of the driving hinge 43 is rotatably connected to the second flange 3233 of the bracket 323 of the movable panel 32.
[0039] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the smoke hood 1 rises to the highest position, the movable panel 32 is closed and flush with the fixed panel 31; see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 When the smoke hood 1 descends, since the movable panel 32 is rotatably connected to the smoke hood 1 and the decorative strip 33, as the smoke hood 1 descends, the movable panel 32 flips relative to the smoke hood 1 and the decorative strip 33. When the smoke hood 1 descends to the lowest position, the movable panel 32 flips and opens to the maximum angle position.
