Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of range hood measurement equipment, and particularly relates to a range hood air volume and air pressure measurement equipment. Background Art

[0002] A range hood is a common kitchen appliance used to extract oil fumes and odors generated during cooking and keep the kitchen air clean. Its performance directly affects the indoor air quality and the comfort of the kitchen environment. In order to ensure the safety, effectiveness, and durability of the range hood, comprehensive detection is required, so a range hood measurement system is needed.

[0003] As shown in the Chinese patent application document with the patent application number 202210196736.5 in the prior art measurement system, it discloses an automatic test system for the performance of a range hood fan. The device mainly includes: a remote control electric valve device, a filter amplifier, a threshold comparison circuit, an air velocity sensor, a temperature sensor, and a pressure gauge. The method adopts a new measurement and control algorithm, which can measure the air velocity and pressure, detect and compensate the original measured flow value, adopt relevant algorithms such as filtering for the sensor signals collected, calculate relevant values, and then calculate the fan performance under different working conditions according to the air velocity, temperature measured by the sensor, and pipeline parameters.

[0004] In the test system of the above patent application, the pressure value inside the test pipe section is measured by a pressure gauge, and at the same time, the atmospheric pressure value is measured by setting an atmospheric pressure gauge outside the test pipe section. The two are compared to obtain the increment of the air pressure of the range hood. The air volume and air pressure curve obtained in this way is affected by the change factor of the atmospheric pressure value, and there is a certain error. Moreover, this error value is affected by the environment and is uncontrollable. Therefore, when the measurement unit conducts the performance test of the range hood through this measurement system, it cannot control the measurement accuracy and it is difficult to form a measurement standard.
