For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a working noise control structure of a range hood, which includes a housing 1, which is provided with a fixed panel 2 and a movable flap 3. In this embodiment, an opening 21 is provided in the middle or lower part of the fixed panel 2, and the movable flap 3 is arranged in the opening 21. The connection between the fixed panel 2, the movable flap 3 and the housing 1 is a prior art and will not be repeated. The movable flap 3 can rotate between an open position and a closed position. When the movable flap 3 is in the closed position, the movable flap 3 closes the opening 21 on the fixed panel 2. When the movable flap 3 is in the open position, a strip gap 4 is formed between the hinged end (top end) of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2. A blocking member 5 is provided between the fixed panel 2 and the movable flap 3, and the blocking member 5 blocks the strip gap 4. The shape of the blocking member 5 corresponds to the shape of the strip gap 4, and is also strip-shaped, so as to completely block the strip gap 4.

[0036] In order to ensure the range of motion of the movable flap 3 and the cumulative error of each component after assembly, there is a certain gap between the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2 on the casing 1 when the movable flap 3 is in the open position, namely, the strip gap 4. After research, the applicant found that this gap will deteriorate the noise performance (especially the working noise) and smoke collection effect of the range hood. Due to the existence of the strip gap 4, the noise insulation effect of the movable flap 3 on the noise generated by the operation of the range hood fan will be worse. At the same time, there is a risk of oil smoke escaping from the strip gap 4 during the cooking process. The test results of the applicant show that when the movable flap 3 is in the open position, the smaller the width of the strip gap 4, the smaller the working noise; at the same time, in the smoke collection effect test under a back pressure of 150Pa, when the movable flap 3 is in the open position, the smaller the width of the strip gap 4, the less oil smoke escapes from this gap. In the embodiment of the utility model, a sealing member 5 is provided in the strip gap 4 to completely seal the strip gap 4, thereby improving the working noise performance and smoke collection performance of the movable flap type range hood, and effectively improving the problem of poor working noise performance caused by the strip gap 4, while solving the problem of poor smoke collection effect caused by the strip gap 4.

[0037] In order to ensure the blocking effect, the thickness of the blocking member 5 is greater than the width of the strip gap 4, so that the blocking member 5 and the strip gap 4 are interference fit to improve the working noise performance and smoke collection performance of the movable flap type range hood.

[0038] If the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the surface of the fixed panel 2 are not flat, the width of the strip gap 4 will be uneven, and a hole will be formed between the blocking member 5. At this time, in order to improve the adaptability of the blocking member 5, in one embodiment of the utility model, the blocking member 5 is an elastic material to adapt to the uneven width of the strip gap 4 and ensure the blocking effect. Furthermore, the blocking member 5 is a sound insulation material, which further reduces the working noise of the movable flap range hood on the basis of blocking the strip gap 4 to ensure the working noise performance.

[0039] In one embodiment of the utility model, the blocking member 5 is fixed to the surface of the fixed panel 2 and is fixed to the surface of the fixed panel 2 by bolts, adhesive or pressing. When the movable flap 3 is in the open position, the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3 abuts against the blocking member 5, and the blocking member 5 completely blocks the strip gap 4 between the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2, so as to improve the working noise performance and smoke collection performance of the movable flap type range hood, which can effectively improve the problem of poor working noise performance caused by the strip gap 4, and at the same time solve the problem of poor smoke collection effect caused by the strip gap 4.

[0040] In one embodiment of the utility model, the blocking member 5 is fixed to the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3, and is fixed to the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3 by bolts, adhesive or compression. When the movable flap 3 is in the open position, the surface of the fixed panel 2 abuts against the blocking member 5, and the blocking member 5 completely blocks the strip gap 4 between the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2, so as to improve the working noise performance and smoke collection performance of the movable flap type range hood, which can effectively improve the problem of poor working noise performance caused by the strip gap 4, and at the same time solve the problem of poor smoke collection effect caused by the strip gap 4.

[0041] When the blocking member 5 is fixed to the movable flap 3 or the fixed panel 2, the blocking effect of the end of the blocking member 5 in contact with the fixed panel 2 or the movable flap 3 may be poor. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, the blocking member 5 is made of elastic material, and one end of the blocking member 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed panel 2, and the other end of the blocking member 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3, and can also be fixed to the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the surface of the fixed panel 2 by bolts, adhesive or compression. In this way, whether the movable flap 3 is in the open position or the closed position, the end of the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the surface of the fixed panel 2 are connected to the elastic blocking member 5, and the gap (including the strip gap 4) between the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2 is always completely blocked to improve the working noise performance and smoke collection performance of the movable flap type range hood, which can effectively improve the problem of poor working noise performance caused by the strip gap 4, and solve the problem of poor smoke collection effect caused by the strip gap 4. At the same time, due to the elasticity of the material of the blocking member 5 itself, the movable flap 3 can be opened and closed normally.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the movable flap 3 is in the open position, the connection span of the elastic material blocking member 5 is small, and the blocking member 5 does not generate tension or generates a small tension or is in a compressed state. At this time, the length of the elastic material blocking member 5 along the width direction of the gap between the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2 is L1. At this time, the elastic material blocking member 5 generates a tension F1. When F1>0, the elastic material blocking member 5 generates tension; when F=0, the elastic material blocking member 5 does not generate tension; when F1<0, the elastic material blocking member 5 is compressed. When the movable flap 3 is in the closed position, the connection span of the elastic material blocking member 5 is large, and the blocking member 5 generates a large tension, but under the drive of the motion mechanism (the driving connection structure between the movable flap 3 and the housing), the movable flap 3 can be closed smoothly without generating other deformations caused by the elastic material blocking member 5. At this time, the length of the elastic material blocking member 5 along the width direction of the gap between the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2 is L2. At this time, the elastic material blocking member 5 generates a pulling force F2, and F2>0. During the switching process of the movable flap 3 between the open position and the closed position, the length L of the elastic material blocking member 5 along the gap width direction between the hinged end of the movable flap 3 and the fixed panel 2 satisfies: L1<L<L2.

[0043] In this embodiment, the blocking member 5 is made of an elastic material that has sufficient elasticity and can meet the requirements of long-term use while taking into account both aesthetics and oil resistance.

[0044] In this embodiment, the connection point between the blocking member 5 and the movable flap 3 is a first connection point 51, and the connection point between the blocking member 5 and the fixed panel 2 is a second connection point 52. Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the first connection point 51 can be set at the front side or rear side of the hinged end of the movable flap 3, and the second connection point 52 can be set on the fixed panel 2 at a position higher than the hinged end of the movable flap 3 or lower than the hinged end of the movable flap 3.

[0045] In one embodiment of the utility model, the width of the strip gap 4 is 2-5 mm. If the width is too large, the size of the blocking member 5 will be too large, resulting in increased costs. If the width of the strip gap 4 is too small, it is necessary to improve the assembly accuracy of the connection structure between the casing 1 and the movable flap 3, resulting in increased production costs.

[0046] The embodiment of the utility model further provides a range hood, comprising the above-mentioned range hood working noise control structure.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model may have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
