[0002] Range hoods, also known as range hoods, are kitchen appliances used to purify the kitchen environment. They can quickly extract the exhaust gas generated by stove combustion and the fumes generated during cooking, and discharge them outdoors to achieve the purpose of purifying the kitchen environment. With the progress of human civilization, in the field of daily stoves and range hoods, the shielding, separation and discharge of fumes have become more and more serious due to the improvement of the airtightness of modern rooms and people's increasing requirements for living environment. Range hoods can be divided into two categories: European and Chinese. European range hoods are mainly wall-mounted, and there are also some high-end island-style products; Chinese range hoods are mainly wall-mounted, with deep hoods and shallow hoods. According to the number of motors and wind wheels, they can be divided into: double machines and single machines (i.e. double cylinders and single cylinders). From the accumulation and drainage method, they can be divided into double oil circuits and three oil circuits (gas chamber drainage, protective cover drainage and wind-transported drainage). From the perspective of smoke collection chamber structure, there are single-layer (three oil circuits), double-layer inner-layer (two oil circuits), multi-layer collection network (multiple oil circuits), etc. From the perspective of functional structure, it can be divided into multimedia range hoods, embedded range hoods, wall-suction range hoods, side-suction range hoods, solid wood range hoods, etc.
