[0034] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, in which the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present utility model, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0035] Refer to the following Figures 1-5 to describe the range hood 100 according to the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0036] As Figures 1-3 shown, the range hood 100 according to the embodiments of the present utility model includes a housing 10, an upper deflector 20 and a first baffle 30. The housing 10 defines an upper oil suction cavity 101, the upper oil suction cavity 101 has a bottom opening, the upper deflector 20 is connected to the housing 10 and covers at least part of the bottom opening, the first baffle 30 is arranged vertically with the upper deflector 20, and the first baffle 30 at least partially overlaps with the upper deflector 20. There is a gap between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, so that an oil suction channel 102 is defined between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, and the oil suction channel 102 communicates with the upper oil suction cavity 101.

[0037] Specifically, when the range hood 100 works, the oil fume can enter the upper oil suction cavity 101 from the gap between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, that is, from the oil suction channel 102 under the drive of the fan. After being processed, it finally discharges from the air outlet of the range hood 100. Since the oil fume enters the upper oil suction cavity 101 from the oil suction channel 102 formed between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, the oil intake amount of the oil suction channel 102 can be reduced, so the working noise at this position can be reduced, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.

[0038] According to the range hood 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model, the oil suction channel 102 formed between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 is adopted to replace the air inlet net in the related art, which can reduce the oil intake amount of the oil suction channel 102, and is equivalent to setting a physical barrier between the human ear and the fan of the range hood 100, so as to reduce the direct radiation of the sound field at this position, that is, reduce the working noise at the height where the user's ears are located when standing, improve the sound quality when the range hood 100 works, and further is beneficial to improving the user experience. Moreover, the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 are used to define the oil suction channel 102, which can also reduce the number of components of the range hood 100 and simplify the structure of the range hood 100.

[0039] If the distance between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 is too small, that is, the width of the oil suction channel 102 is too small, it is easy to generate whistling and increase the working noise. If the distance between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 is too large, that is, the width of the oil suction channel 102 is too large, the user can directly see the oil suction channel 102, which affects the appearance visual experience of the range hood 100.

[0040] Therefore, as Figure 3 shown, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the distance L between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 is 5 mm - 25 mm. On the one hand, it can reduce the generation of whistling, and on the other hand, it can improve the appearance visual experience of the range hood 100. Among them, the distance L between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 can be 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, etc.

[0041] Optionally, the distance L between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 can be 10 mm - 20 mm. For example, the distance L between the first baffle 30 and the upper diversion plate 20 can be 18 mm.

[0042] As Figure 3 shown, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, an overcurrent cavity 401 is provided in the housing 10. The overcurrent cavity 401 is located below the upper oil suction cavity 101, and the overcurrent cavity 401 communicates with the upper oil suction cavity 101 and the oil suction channel 102. The first baffle 30 is located below the upper diversion plate 20, and the first baffle 30 is arranged close to the overcurrent cavity 401 and extends from top to bottom in a direction close to the overcurrent cavity 401.

[0043] Under the action of the fan, the fume can flow from top to bottom along the extension direction of the fume suction channel 102, enter the flow-through cavity 401, and then flow from bottom to top through the communication port (such as the following first flow-through port 404) between the flow-through cavity 401 and the upper fume suction cavity 101, and enter the upper fume suction cavity 101. During this process, when the fume enters the flow-through cavity 401, it can buffer this part of the fume, reduce the impact of the fume on other airflows (such as the fume in the following lower fume cavity), so as to avoid the formation of local eddy currents of the fume. The first baffle 30 is arranged close to the flow-through cavity 401, so that the formed fume suction channel 102 is arranged close to the flow-through cavity 401, that is, far from the user, thereby further reducing the generation of noise at the height of the human ear and further improving the user experience.

[0044] In addition, during the flow of the fume in the fume suction channel 102, oil liquid may be formed on the upper surface of the first baffle 30. By arranging the first baffle 30 to extend from top to bottom towards the direction close to the flow-through cavity 401, the first baffle 30 can guide the oil liquid into the flow-through cavity 401, preventing the oil liquid from flowing outside the range hood 100 and dripping onto the stove top.

[0045] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the angle α between the first baffle 30 and the horizontal plane is 5°-45°. For example, the angle α between the first baffle 30 and the horizontal plane can be 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, etc.

[0046] In the above technical solution, by restricting the angle α between the first baffle 30 and the horizontal plane to satisfy the above range, the oil liquid formed on the upper surface of the first baffle 30 can smoothly flow into the flow-through cavity 401, preventing the oil liquid from accumulating and coagulating on the first baffle 30 for a long time, which affects the fume suction effect.

[0047] Optionally, the angle α between the first baffle 30 and the horizontal plane can be 10°-30°. For example, the angle α between the first baffle 30 and the horizontal plane can be 12°, 15°, 18°, etc.

[0048] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments, the upper deflector 20 includes a first plate body 21. The first plate body 21 extends from top to bottom towards the direction close to the flow-through cavity 401. The first baffle 30 is arranged below the first plate body 21, and the first baffle 30 and the first plate body 21 define the fume suction channel 102.

[0049] In the above technical solution, by setting the upper deflector 20 to include the first plate body 21, on the one hand, the first plate body 21 can guide the oil fume, and on the other hand, the oil liquid formed on the lower surface of the first plate body 21 can smoothly flow into the flow-through cavity 401, avoiding the long-term accumulation and agglomeration of the oil liquid on the first plate body 21 of the upper deflector 20 and affecting the oil fume extraction effect.

[0050] In some examples, the first plate body 21 and the first baffle 30 are arranged parallel to each other, so that the width of the oil fume extraction channel 102 is consistent, ensuring the oil fume extraction effect.

[0051] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in some examples, the upper deflector 20 further includes a second plate body 22. The second plate body 22 is connected to one end of the first plate body 21 away from the flow-through cavity 401. The second plate body 22 extends downward in a direction away from the flow-through cavity 401. A smoke collecting cavity 24 communicating with one end of the oil fume extraction channel 102 is defined between the second plate body 22 and the first plate body 21. That is to say, the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22 extend downward in a direction away from each other, so that the smoke collecting cavity 24 is defined between the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22.

[0052] With such a setting, the oil fume can first gather in the smoke collecting cavity 24 and then enter the upper oil fume extraction cavity 101 along the oil fume extraction channel 102, which is beneficial to improving the oil fume extraction effect. In addition, looking at the range hood 100 from the side where the user is located, the second plate body 22 can block one end of the oil fume extraction channel 102, so that the oil fume extraction channel 102 can be hidden on one side of the second plate body 22, further enhancing the visual experience of the appearance of the range hood 100.

[0053] Among them, in the same horizontal plane, the projection of the first plate body 21 covers the projection of the first baffle 30, and the projection of the second plate body 22 does not overlap with the projection of the first baffle 30, so that the formed oil fume extraction channel 102 is far from the second plate body 22, that is, far from the user's position, which can further improve the sound quality when the range hood 100 works, and further enhance the user's use experience.

[0054] As Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, in some embodiments, the bottom wall of the flow-through cavity 401 includes a first drainage portion 402 and a second drainage portion 403. The first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 are arranged in the extending direction of the flow-through cavity 401 (such as Figure 5 shown in the horizontal direction), and the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 extend downward in a direction away from each other.

[0055] Thus, by providing the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 on the bottom wall of the oil passage cavity 401, the oil dripping into the oil passage cavity 401 can flow towards both ends in the extending direction of the oil passage cavity 401, and finally the oil can fall into the oil cup of the range hood 100, preventing the oil from accumulating and coagulating in the middle of the oil passage cavity 401 and being unable to be discharged.

[0056] As Figure 5 shown, in some examples, the slopes of the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 are greater than or equal to 8°. That is, the angle β between the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 and the horizontal plane is greater than or equal to 8°. For example, the angle β between the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 and the horizontal plane can be 8°, 10°, 15°, 20°, etc. By restricting the slopes of the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 to meet the above conditions, the problem of oil accumulation in the oil passage cavity 401 can be avoided.

[0057] In some examples, the middle part of the bottom wall of the oil passage cavity 401 extends upward to form a convex portion 406 in the middle of the bottom wall of the oil passage cavity 401, so that the first drainage portion 402 and the second drainage portion 403 can be respectively formed on both sides of the convex portion 406 in the transverse direction.

[0058] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments, a drainage flanging 23 extending downward is provided at one end of the upper guide plate 20 close to the oil passage cavity 401. The drainage flanging 23 can not only guide the oil fume in the oil fume passage 102 into the oil passage cavity 401, but also guide the oil formed on the lower surface of the upper guide plate 20 into the oil passage cavity 401, thereby improving the working efficiency and performance of the range hood 100.

[0059] As Figures 1-2 and Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments, the housing 10 further defines a lower oil fume cavity 103, the lower oil fume cavity 103 is located below the upper oil fume cavity 101, and the lower oil fume cavity 103 has a side opening, and the side opening is the oil fume inlet 104.

[0060] When the range hood 100 is working, driven by the fan, a part of the oil fume can enter the upper oil fume cavity 101 from the gap between the first baffle 30 and the upper guide plate 20, that is, from the oil fume passage 102, and a part of the oil fume can enter the lower oil fume cavity 103 from the oil fume inlet 104. After the oil fume is processed, it finally exits from the air outlet of the range hood 100.

[0061] The oil suction channel 102 formed between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20 is used to replace the air inlet net in the related art, which can reduce the oil inlet volume of the oil suction channel 102, that is, reduce the oil inlet volume of the upper oil suction cavity 101, making the negative pressure area of the stove closer to the lower oil suction port 104, so as to increase the oil inlet volume of the lower oil suction port 104, that is, increase the oil inlet volume of the lower oil suction cavity 103, which helps to improve the oil suction effect of the range hood 100.

[0062] Therefore, by using the oil suction channel 102 formed between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20 to replace the air inlet net in the related art, not only can the working noise at the height of the user's ears when standing be reduced, the sound quality during the operation of the range hood 100 be improved, which is beneficial to enhancing the user experience, but also the oil suction effect of the range hood 100 can be improved.

[0063] Wherein, a second baffle 40 is provided in the housing 10. A flow-through cavity 401 and a first flow-through port 404 are defined between the side of the second baffle 40 facing the upper deflector 20 and the housing 10, and the first flow-through port 404 connects the flow-through cavity 401 and the upper oil suction cavity 101. A second flow-through port 405 is defined between the side of the second baffle 40 facing away from the upper deflector 20 and the housing 10, and the second flow-through port 405 connects the upper oil suction cavity 101 and the lower oil suction cavity 103.

[0064] Specifically, when the range hood 100 is operating, driven by the fan, a part of the oil fume can enter the flow-through cavity 401 from the gap between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, that is, from the oil suction channel 102, and then enter the upper oil suction cavity 101 through the first flow-through port 404. A part of the oil fume can enter the lower oil suction cavity 103 from the oil suction port 104, and then enter the upper oil suction cavity 101 through the second flow-through port 405. After the oil fume is processed, it is finally discharged from the exhaust port of the range hood 100.

[0065] In the above technical solution, by providing the second baffle 40 in the housing 10, the second baffle 40 can define the flow-through cavity 401 with the housing 10. On the one hand, it can prevent the oil fume flowing out of the oil suction channel 102 from colliding with the oil fume entering the lower oil suction cavity 103, thus generating local eddy currents. On the other hand, it can achieve flow splitting, so as to meet the preset air flow distribution ratio.

[0066] Such as Figure 4As shown, in some examples, the size of the second overcurrent port 405 is a, and the size of the first overcurrent port 404 is b, where 2:1 ≤ a:b ≤ 4:1. For example, the size a of the second overcurrent port 405 is 2 times, 3 times, or 4 times, etc. the size b of the first overcurrent port 404. With such a setting, the oil intake volume of the lower oil suction cavity 103 can be increased, and the oil intake volume of the upper oil suction cavity 101 can be reduced. On the basis of ensuring reduced working noise, the oil suction effect of the range hood 100 can be improved.

[0067] Among them, the second baffle 40 includes a bottom plate 41 and a side plate 42. The side plate 42 is disposed opposite to the casing 10 in the longitudinal direction, and the length direction of the side plate 42 extends along the transverse direction. The length direction of the bottom plate 41 extends along the transverse direction, and both sides in the width direction of the bottom plate 41 are respectively connected to the casing 10 and the lower end of the side plate 42. The middle part of the bottom plate 41 in the length direction bulges upward to define a convex part 406, so that a first drainage part 402 and a second drainage part 403 can be formed on opposite sides of the convex part 406.

[0068] In some examples, a lower deflector 50 is provided in the casing 10, and the lower deflector 50 extends from bottom to top in a direction away from the oil suction port 104. By providing the lower deflector 50, the oil fume near the stove can be guided into the lower oil fume cavity, thereby further improving the oil suction effect of the range hood 100.

[0069] As Figures 1-2 、 Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the casing 10 includes a fixed casing 11 and a movable casing 12. The fixed casing 11 defines an upper oil suction cavity 101 and at least part of the lower oil suction cavity 103. The movable casing 12 is disposed at the bottom of the fixed casing 11 so as to be movable up and down between an extended position and a retracted position. The movable casing 12 defines at least part of the lower oil suction cavity 103, and the oil suction port 104 is formed on the side of the movable casing 12.

[0070] When the range hood 100 is not working, the movable casing 12 can be driven to move to the retracted position, so that the movable casing 12 can be received in the fixed casing 11, and the oil suction port 104 can be hidden in the fixed casing 11. On the one hand, it is beneficial to improve the visual experience of the appearance of the range hood 100. On the other hand, it can prevent foreign objects from entering the casing 10 through the oil suction port 104, playing a protective role.

[0071] When the range hood 100 is working, the movable casing 12 can be driven to move to the extended position, so that the movable casing 12 can extend out of the fixed casing 11, thereby exposing the oil suction port 104, and most of the oil fume near the stove can enter the lower oil suction cavity 103 through the oil suction port 104, further improving the oil suction effect.

[0072] As Figure 2As shown, in some examples, the range hood 100 further includes a blower, which includes a volute 70, an impeller, and a motor. The axial direction of the volute 70 extends longitudinally. The impeller is rotatably disposed within the volute 70, and the motor is connected to the impeller to drive the impeller to rotate.

[0073] Furthermore, the range hood 100 further includes a flow splitting plate 80, which is disposed between the upper deflector 20 and the volute 70, and the flow splitting plate 80 extends from bottom to top in a direction approaching the upper deflector 20. The lower end of the flow splitting plate 80 is connected to the top of the second baffle 40, and the upper end of the flow splitting plate 80 is connected to the volute 70, so that the oil fumes in the upper oil fume suction cavity 101 and the lower oil fume suction cavity 103 enter the volute 70 from both axial ends of the volute 70 respectively under the drive of the impeller.

[0074] Specifically, the two axial ends of the volute 70 are respectively a first end 71 and a second end 72. Inlets are formed at both axial ends of the volute 70. In the axial direction of the volute 70, the first end 71 of the volute 70 is disposed away from the lower oil fume suction cavity 103, and the second end 72 of the volute 70 is disposed close to the lower oil fume suction cavity 103. The upper end of the flow splitting plate 80 can be connected to the first end 71 at the bottom of the peripheral wall of the volute 70, or can be connected to the second end 72 at the bottom of the peripheral wall of the volute 70, or can also be connected to the middle part in the axial direction of the bottom of the peripheral wall of the volute 70.

[0075] When the range hood 100 is operating, under the drive of the blower, a part of the oil fumes can enter the overflow cavity 401 from the gap between the first baffle 30 and the upper deflector 20, that is, from the oil fume suction channel 102, then pass through the first overflow port 404, and enter the upper oil fume suction cavity 101 under the guidance of the flow splitting plate 80. A part of the oil fumes can enter the lower oil fume suction cavity 103 from the oil fume suction port 104, then pass through the second overflow port 405, and enter the upper oil fume suction cavity 101 under the guidance of the flow splitting plate 80. After the oil fumes are processed, they are finally discharged from the exhaust port of the range hood 100.

[0076] In the above technical solution, by providing the flow splitting plate 80, the oil fumes in the upper oil fume suction cavity 101 and the lower oil fume suction cavity 103 can be split, so that they can enter the volute 70 independently from both axial ends of the volute 70 respectively, reducing the convection problem, thereby further improving the oil fume suction effect of the range hood 100 and reducing the working noise.
