In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure discloses a range hood heat recovery system 100, which includes a smoke generating device 20, a ventilation system 30 and a heat recovery device 10, wherein the smoke generating device 20 is mainly responsible for generating and collecting smoke, and the ventilation system 30 is mainly responsible for ventilating the gas in the room. The smoke generating device 20 includes a range hood 22, and the range hood 22 is connected to the ventilation system 30 through the heat recovery device 10. The heat recovery device 10 can recover the heat of the smoke generated by the smoke generating device 20, and the heat recovery device 10 can transfer the recovered heat to the gas of the ventilation system 30, thereby heating the gas exchanged into the room. Through the provision of the heat recovery device 10, the secondary utilization of the heat of the smoke can be achieved, and the heat recovery device 10 is used to preheat the gas exchanged into the room, thereby reducing the demand and utilization of electric energy for heating the gas exchanged into the room, thereby achieving the purpose of energy saving.

[0043] Combination Figure 1The structure of the smoke generating device 20 is described as follows. Figure 1 As shown, the smoke generating device 20 also includes a stove 21, which is used to cook food. A range hood 22 is arranged above the stove 21, and the range hood 22 can recover and discharge the smoke generated by the stove 21 during cooking. Figure 1 As shown, the range hood 22 includes a smoke collecting chamber 222, a range hood body 221 and an exhaust duct 223 which are connected in sequence. The smoke collecting chamber 222 can gather the smoke well, and the smoke can be filtered after passing through the smoke collecting chamber 222, the range hood body 221 and the exhaust duct 223 in sequence, and the filtered gas is discharged to a public flue or outdoors.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 The structure of the ventilation system 30 is described as follows. Figure 1 As shown, the ventilation system 30 includes an air intake duct 31 and a second fan 32. One end of the air intake duct 31 is connected to the indoor environment, and the other end of the air intake duct 31 is connected to the outdoor environment. The second fan 32 is arranged in the air intake duct 31. When the second fan 32 is working, the gas in the outdoor environment can be introduced into the house. Exemplarily, the ventilation system 30 can be a fresh air system, an air conditioning system, etc. All systems that can realize indoor and outdoor gas exchange are within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0045] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure of the heat recovery device 10 is described as follows. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heat recovery device 10 includes a first heat exchange device 11 and a second heat exchange device 12. The first heat exchange device 11 includes a first shell 111 with a first cavity 1111. The first shell 111 has an air inlet 11121. The air inlet 11121 is connected to the exhaust pipe 223. The second heat exchange device 12 includes a second shell 121 with a second cavity 1211. The second shell 121 is connected to the air intake pipe 31. The second shell 121 and the first shell 111 are arranged in the up and down direction. The second shell 121 is located above the first shell 111, and the first shell 111 is directly or indirectly connected to the second shell 121. The flue gas is a thermal fluid. The thermal fluid spontaneously forms an upward movement due to the action of thermal buoyancy during movement, resulting in the flue gas entering the first cavity 1111. After moving upward, it will then adhere to the upper wall of the first shell 111 for heat transfer, and the heat is transferred from the lower wall of the second shell 121 to the second cavity 1211.

[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the heat recovery device 10 also includes a heat exchange mechanism 13, which extends from the inside of the first shell 111 to the inside of the second shell 121. The hot fluid that touches the upper wall of the first shell 111 moves downward close to the heat exchange mechanism 13 due to the wall effect. In the process of the flue gas close to the wall of the heat exchange mechanism 13, the flue gas and the wall of the heat exchange mechanism 13 have both heat convection effect and heat conduction effect, which can enhance the heat exchange effect and heat exchange mode. The heat of the hot fluid is exchanged with the second cavity 1211 through the heat exchange mechanism 13. Through the setting of the heat exchange mechanism 13, the heat exchange area can be increased, and the heat exchange between the first cavity 1111 and the second cavity 1211 can be improved. The gas in the intake pipe 31 enters the second cavity 1211 and exchanges heat with the heat exchange mechanism 13, thereby heating the gas in the ventilation system 30, thereby realizing the utilization of the recovered heat.

[0047] However, one end of the existing heat exchange mechanism 13 abuts against the top plate of the second shell 121, and the other end of the heat exchange mechanism 13 abuts against the bottom plate of the first shell 111. However, the heat exchange effect of the heat exchange mechanism 13 of this structure is slightly poor and the heat recovery efficiency is low.

[0048] In order to solve the above problems, Figure 2 As shown, the heat exchange mechanism 13 has a first end 1321 and a second end 1361, the first shell 111 includes a bottom plate 11123, the first end 1321 and the bottom plate 11123 are spaced apart, and a first gap 193 is formed between the first end 1321 and the bottom plate 11123. Through the setting of the first gap 193, the flue gas in the first cavity 1111 can also exchange heat through the first end 1321 of the heat exchange mechanism 13, further improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange mechanism 13 and strengthening the heat exchange effect of the heat exchange mechanism 13. In addition, Figure 2 As shown, a mixing space N is formed at the position of the first gap 193. The formation of the mixing space N can reduce the flow velocity of the flue gas in the first cavity 1111 to a certain extent. The flue gas forms backflow and turbulence in the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13. The flue gas stays in the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13 (the rear side of the heat exchange mechanism 13) for a longer time, thereby increasing the heat exchange time between the flue gas and the heat exchange mechanism 13, making the heat exchange more thorough, improving the heat exchange efficiency, strengthening the heat exchange effect, and improving the heat recovery utilization rate of the heat recovery device 10.

[0049] like Figure 2As shown, the second shell 121 includes an upper end plate 1213, and the second end 1361 is spaced apart from the upper end plate 1213, and a second gap 12111 is formed between the second end 1361 and the upper end plate 1213. Through the setting of the second gap 12111, the heat on the heat exchange mechanism 13 can also be exchanged with the gas in the second cavity 1211 through the second end 1361, thereby further improving the heat exchange efficiency and enhancing the heat exchange effect. Figure 2 As shown, a mixing space P is formed at the position of the second gap 12111. The formation of the mixing space P can reduce the flow velocity of the gas in the second cavity 1211 to a certain extent. The gas forms backflow and turbulence in the space upstream of the heat exchange mechanism 13 (the front side of the heat exchange mechanism 13). The gas stays in the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13 for a longer time, thereby increasing the heat exchange time between the gas and the heat exchange mechanism 13, making the heat exchange more thorough, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat recovery device 10, strengthening the heat exchange effect of the heat recovery device 10, and improving the heat recovery utilization rate of the heat recovery device 10.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, the first shell 111 includes a top plate 11122, the maximum distance between the first end 1321 and the top plate 11122 in the vertical direction is a first distance h1, and the height of the first shell 111 in the vertical direction is a first height H1, wherein h1 / H1 is 0.6-0.9, which can achieve the longest heat exchange time between the flue gas and the heat exchange mechanism 13, so that the heat exchange is the most thorough, and the best heat exchange efficiency and the best heat exchange effect are achieved. Exemplarily, h1 / H1 can be 0.6, 0.65, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9, etc.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the second shell 121 includes a lower end plate 1214, the maximum distance between the second end 1361 and the lower end plate 1214 in the vertical direction is a second distance h2, and the height of the second shell 121 in the vertical direction is a second height H2, wherein h2 / H2 is 0.6-0.9, which can achieve the longest heat exchange time between the gas and the heat exchange mechanism 13, so that the heat exchange is the most thorough, and the best heat exchange efficiency and the best heat exchange effect are achieved. Exemplarily, h2 / H2 can be 0.6, 0.65, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9, etc.

[0052] In addition, the existing heat exchange mechanism 13 is fixed relative to the first shell 111 and the second shell 121, resulting in poor coordination between the oil fume absorption effect and heat recovery of the range hood heat recovery system 100, resulting in poor oil fume absorption effect of the smoke generating device 20, or resulting in poor heat recovery rate of the heat exchange mechanism 13, which cannot meet the user's adaptive adjustment requirements for different scenarios, thereby reducing the user's usage experience.

[0053] To solve the above problems, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heat exchange mechanism 13 includes a windward surface 133 and a leeward surface 134, and the smoke flows through the windward surface 133 and the leeward surface 134 in sequence. The heat exchange mechanism 13 can rotate relative to the first shell 111 to adjust the inclination angle α of the windward surface 133 relative to the front-rear direction (first direction). Figure 3 As shown, when the inclination angle α is the first inclination angle α1, the first inclination angle α1 is relatively small (an acute angle). In this state, the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13 is relatively small. Under the obstruction of the heat exchange mechanism 13, the flue gas entering from the air inlet 11121 forms backflow and turbulence in the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13, and the flue gas flow rate is reduced, resulting in the flue gas staying longer in the upstream space of the heat exchange mechanism 13, thereby increasing the heat exchange time between the flue gas and the heat exchange mechanism 13, making the heat exchange more thorough, improving the heat exchange efficiency, and strengthening the heat exchange effect. However, in this state, the resistance of the flue gas is slightly larger, which improves the heat exchange effect, but the fume absorbing effect of the range hood 22 is relatively weak. Figure 4 As shown, when the inclination angle α is the second inclination angle α2, the size of the second inclination angle α2 is relatively large (it is an obtuse angle). In this state, the heat exchange mechanism 13 has a smaller blocking effect on the smoke, and can achieve a better smoke absorption effect of the range hood 22. The heat exchange effect of the heat exchange mechanism 13 is moderate.

[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, when the concentration of flue gas is low, the main task at this time is to increase the heat exchange intensity of the heat exchange mechanism 13 and enhance the heat recovery efficiency, reduce the inclination angle α, adjust the inclination angle α to the first inclination angle α1, increase the forced convection area, increase the heat recovery rate, improve the heat exchange efficiency, and enhance the heat exchange effect. Figure 4 As shown, when the concentration of the flue gas is high, the main task at this time is to increase the air volume of the range hood 22, increase the inclination angle α, adjust the inclination angle α to the second inclination angle α2, reduce the flow resistance of the flue gas, and ensure that the range hood 22 has a better absorption effect on the flue gas, and ensure that the heat exchange mechanism 13 performs appropriate heat recovery under the premise of sufficient air volume of the range hood 22.

[0055] In summary, the heat recovery device 10 and the range hood heat recovery system 100 can adaptively and dynamically adjust the inclination angle α according to the needs of different usage scenarios, and adaptively and dynamically adjust the relationship between the oil fume absorption effect and heat recovery, so as to achieve heat recovery and utilization while meeting the user's needs for different scenarios and improving the user's usage experience.

[0056] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1 to Figure 5As shown, the heat exchange mechanism 13 includes a heat exchange body 131 and a plurality of first heat exchange fins 132 arranged thereon, at least part of the heat exchange body 131 is arranged inside the second shell 121, the heat exchange body 131 is rotatably connected to the first shell 111 and / or the second shell 121, and the first heat exchange fins 132 are located inside the first shell 111. Through the arrangement of the plurality of first heat exchange fins 132, the heat exchange area can be increased, the heat exchange efficiency can be improved, the flue gas movement path can be increased, the flue gas activity can be reduced, the oil in the flue gas can be better precipitated in the heat exchange mechanism 13, the grease content in the exhaust flue gas can be reduced, and the pollution of the exhaust flue gas to the outdoor air can be reduced.

[0057] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the cross section of the first heat exchange fin 132 may be circular, and the circular cross section is provided to facilitate the rapid processing of the first heat exchange fin 132. In other optional embodiments, the cross section of the first heat exchange fin 132 may also be square, diamond or other shapes, and all such shapes are within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, the heat exchange body 131 and the first heat exchange fins 132 can be made of copper material, silver material or other solid materials that are conducive to heat conduction. The aforementioned materials have good thermal conductivity to enhance the heat exchange between the flue gas in the first cavity 1111 and the gas in the second cavity 1211 and the heat exchange body 131, respectively, to improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0059] In addition, if Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown, the heat exchange mechanism 13 further includes a plurality of second heat exchange fins 136, which are arranged on the heat exchange body 131 and are located inside the second shell 121. By providing a plurality of second heat exchange fins 136, the gas movement path can be increased, the heat exchange area can be increased, and the heat exchange efficiency can be improved.

[0060] Exemplarily, the cross section of the second heat exchange fin 136 may be circular, and the circular cross section is provided to facilitate the rapid processing of the second heat exchange fin 136. In other optional embodiments, the cross section of the second heat exchange fin 136 may also be square, diamond or other shapes, and all such shapes are within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, the second heat exchange fins 136 can be made of copper material, silver material or other solid materials that are conducive to heat conduction. The aforementioned materials have good thermal conductivity to enhance the heat exchange between the gas in the second cavity 1211 and the heat exchange mechanism 13, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0062] In an optional embodiment, the heat exchange body 131 , the second heat exchange fins 136 , and the first heat exchange fins 132 may be integrally injection molded, which can achieve rapid processing and manufacturing of the heat exchange mechanism 13 .

[0063] In an optional embodiment, the heat exchange body 131 and the first heat exchange fins 132 can also be detachably connected, so that the damaged heat exchange body 131 or the first heat exchange fins 132 can be replaced independently, thereby reducing maintenance costs. Exemplarily, the heat exchange body 131 and the first heat exchange fins 132 can be detachably connected by screws, pins, buckle assemblies, etc.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the heat exchange body 131 and the second heat exchange fins 136 can also be detachably connected, so that the damaged heat exchange body 131 or the second heat exchange fins 136 can be replaced independently, thereby reducing maintenance costs. Exemplarily, the heat exchange body 131 and the second heat exchange fins 136 can be detachably connected by screws, pins, buckle assemblies, etc.
