Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a household appliance, in particular to a purification device. Background Art

[0002] Range hoods have become one of the indispensable kitchen appliances in modern families. Range hoods work based on the principle of fluid dynamics, using a centrifugal fan installed inside the range hood to absorb and exhaust oil fumes, and using a filter to filter out some grease particles.

[0003] At present, users' demand for cooking is not limited to the kitchen. They also cook at the dining table, island counter and other places in the living room, such as using some popular small appliances to cook hot pot and snail noodles. The existing range hoods with built-in fans are not suitable for installation in restaurants and other areas closer to human activities due to their large size and relatively high noise, and require a separate outdoor exhaust duct; and some range hoods using technologies such as internal circulation are installed in restaurants, but due to the accumulation of oil and odor in the filter element and the short replacement cycle, the restaurant's air is polluted again, affecting the actual user experience, so that the purchase of high-end range hood products fails to achieve the expected experience improvement, which in turn affects word of mouth.

[0004] If purification equipment is installed in every space, the cost will be relatively high. In addition, in addition to solving cooking needs, there will be air purifiers and fresh air purifiers in the living room and other places, so multiple appliances will take up space and be costly.

[0005] Therefore, there is room for further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0043] The range hood of the utility model can be in the following different states:

[0044] 1) Oil fume purification

[0045] 1.1. Purification of kitchen cooking fumes, similar to conventional range hoods)

[0046] Only when cooking in the kitchen, the control module 8 controls the first baffle 61 and the third baffle 63 to close, the second baffle 62 and the fourth baffle 64 to open, and the filter element 52 is in Figure 5 The position shown (not involved in purification); the oil smoke is sucked in from the first air inlet component 1, passes through the fan system 32, and is discharged into the public flue from the air outlet hood 33.

[0047] To ensure the smoking effect, the control module 8 controls the fan system 32 to make the wind speed of the air inlet 11 of the first air inlet assembly 1 to be V 1 m / s.

[0048] 1.2. Purification of the second space (purification of cooking fumes in the second space, mainly referring to light cooking fumes such as hot pot and snail noodles)

[0049] When cooking in the second space only, the control module 8 controls the third baffle 63 and the fourth baffle 64 to be closed, the first baffle 61 and the second baffle 62 to be opened, and the filter element 52 to be in Figure 5 The position shown (not involved in purification); the oil smoke is sucked in from the second air inlet assembly 2, discharged into the fan system 32 from the connecting pipe, and discharged into the public flue from the air outlet hood 33.

[0050] To ensure the smoking effect, the control module 8 controls the fan system 32 to make the wind speed of the air inlet (not shown) of the second air inlet assembly 2 be V 2 m / s.

[0051] 1.3. Simultaneous purification of the first and second spaces
