[0042] Embodiment 1

[0043] The following refers to Figures 1 to 7 Describe the oil cup 1 assembly and the range hood according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0044] Such as Figure 1 And Figure 2As shown in the figure, the oil cup assembly includes an oil cup 1 and a baffle plate assembly 2. The oil cup 1 is installed below the smoke collecting hood 3 of the range hood, and the open end of the oil cup 1 faces the upper smoke collecting hood 3 for receiving the dirty oil flowing out of the smoke collecting hood 3. The baffle plate assembly 2 is arranged at the open end of the oil cup 1. The baffle plate assembly 2 forms a baffle channel, and the baffle channel can extend downward in a bent manner, and the bending direction is the left-right direction or the front-back direction of the oil cup 1. The baffle channel is formed with an oil inlet 23 and an oil outlet 24. The oil inlet 23 is located on the upper side of the baffle plate assembly 2 facing upward. The baffle channel is connected to the external space above the oil cup 1 through the oil inlet 23. The oil outlet 24 is located on the lower side of the baffle plate assembly 2 facing downward. The baffle channel is connected to the inside of the oil cup 1 through the oil outlet 24.

[0045] When collecting the dirty oil through the oil cup 1, the dirty oil flowing out of the smoke collecting hood 3 will fall on the baffle plate assembly 2 and flow along the baffle plate assembly 2 to the oil inlet 23, and then flow into the baffle channel through the oil inlet 23, and then flow along the baffle channel to the oil outlet 24 and flow into the oil cup 1 through the oil outlet 24. When cleaning the dirty oil in the oil cup 1, since the baffle plate assembly 2 with a circuitous baffle channel is provided, it can effectively block the open end of the oil cup 1, so that the dirty oil in the oil cup 1 will not splash or spill out due to the shaking during the process of taking the oil cup 1.

[0046] The projection of the oil inlet 23 on the bottom wall of the oil cup 1 in the vertical direction does not overlap with the projection of the oil outlet 24 on the bottom wall of the oil cup 1 in the vertical direction.

[0047] Suppose that when the oil outlet 24 is directly above the oil inlet 23, the oil stain in the oil cup 1 may directly pass through the oil outlet 24 and then enter the oil inlet 23 and splash from the oil inlet 23. Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, the oil outlet 24 and the oil inlet 23 are arranged in a staggered manner, and the oil splashing upward from the oil outlet 24 will be blocked.

[0048] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, an oil drain port 12 is provided at the bottom of the oil cup 1, and a bottom cover is provided at the oil drain port 12 for detachably sealing the oil drain port 12. Therefore, when it is necessary to clean the dirty oil in the oil cup 1, only need to open the bottom cover, and the dirty oil in the oil cup 1 can flow out from the oil drain port 12, so as to complete the cleaning of the oil cup 1 conveniently and quickly.

[0049] The bottom cover is a rubber plug, and one end of the rubber plug is press-fitted into the oil drain port 12 to seal the oil drain port 12.

[0050] As Figure 5 shown, the oil drain port 12 is located at one end of the length direction of the bottom of the oil cup 1. Therefore, when draining the oil, the oil cup 1 can be tilted to promote the flow of the dirty oil in the oil cup 1 towards the oil drain port 12, thereby improving the oil draining efficiency.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, the baffle plate assembly 2 includes a first baffle plate 21 and a second baffle plate 22. The second baffle plate 22 is disposed at an interval relative to the bottom wall of the oil cup 1. The first baffle plate 21 is disposed above the second baffle plate 22 at an interval, and a baffle channel is formed between the first baffle plate 21 and the second baffle plate 22. The dirty oil from the smoke collecting hood 3 will fall on the first baffle plate 21. An oil inlet 23 is formed at the first baffle plate 21 for the dirty oil falling on the first baffle plate 21 to flow downward into the baffle channel. An oil outlet 24 is formed at the second baffle plate 22 for the dirty oil in the baffle channel to flow downward into the oil cup 1.

[0052] In an implementable manner, both the first baffle plate 21 and the second baffle plate 22 are fixedly connected to the oil cup 1, for example, by welding or the like; in another implementable solution, both the first baffle plate 21 and the second baffle plate 22 can be detachably connected to the oil cup 1. For example, buckles for clamping the first baffle plate 21 and the second baffle plate 22 are provided on the oil cup 1.

[0053] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 5 shown, at least one first inclined surface 211 is provided on the upper surface of the first baffle plate 21. The first inclined surface 211 includes an opposite first end and a second end, and the second end is higher than the first end. The oil inlet 23 is provided at the first end. That is to say, the number of the first inclined surfaces 211 can be more than one, for example, two, three or four. In this embodiment, the number of the first inclined surfaces 211 is two, and the two first inclined surfaces 211 are arranged along the length direction of the oil cup 1, and the second ends of the two first inclined surfaces 211 are connected together.

[0054] Specifically, the first baffle plate 21 is in an upwardly arched V shape, that is, the middle part of the first baffle plate 21 is higher, and both ends in the length direction form lower ends. Oil inlets 23 are formed at the lower ends at both ends in the length direction of the first baffle plate 21, so that the dirty oil falling on the first baffle plate 21 can smoothly flow to the oil inlet 23 on the nearer side.

[0055] The oil inlets 23 at both ends of the first baffle plate 21 can also be formed in the following manner, that is, both ends in the length direction of the first baffle plate 21 are abutted and connected to the inner wall of the oil cup 1, and the oil inlet 23 is opened on the surface of the first baffle plate 21; or, both ends in the length direction of the first baffle plate 21 are spaced from the inner wall of the opposite oil cup 1 to form the oil inlet 23.

[0056] Regarding the second baffle 22, at least one second inclined surface 221 is provided on the upper surface of the second baffle 22. The second inclined surface 221 includes an opposite third end and a fourth end, the third end is higher than the fourth end, and an oil outlet 24 is provided at the fourth end. That is to say, the number of the second inclined surfaces 221 may be more than one. For example, two, three or four. In this embodiment, the number of the second inclined surfaces 221 is two, and the two second inclined surfaces 221 are arranged along the length direction of the oil cup 1, and the fourth ends of the two second inclined surfaces 221 are connected together.

[0057] Specifically, the second baffle 22 is a downwardly concave V shape, that is, the two ends in the length direction of the second baffle 22 are higher high ends, and the middle part forms a relatively lower low end. A through hole is provided in the middle part of the second baffle 22 for use as the oil outlet 24.

[0058] The oil inlets 23 at both ends of the first baffle 21 are opposite to the high ends at both ends of the second baffle 22. The dirty oil flowing into the baffle channel through the oil inlets 23 will fall on the high ends of the second baffle 22, then flow down along the second baffle 22 to the middle part of the second baffle 22, and finally flow into the oil cup 1 through the oil outlet 24 in the middle part of the second baffle 22.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present application, one first baffle 21 and one second baffle 22 form a set of baffle components 2, and a set of baffle components 2 forms a baffle channel; a plurality of sets of baffle components 2 are provided at the open end of the oil cup 1, and the plurality of sets of baffle components 2 are spaced along the height direction of the oil cup 1, so as to form a plurality of baffle channels at the open end of the oil cup 1 to further improve the anti-splash effect of the oil cup 1.

[0060] For example, there are two sets of baffle components 2, that is, the open end of the oil cup 1 is sequentially provided with a first baffle 21, a second baffle 22, a first baffle 21 and a second baffle 22 from top to bottom. Three mutually connected baffle channels are formed between the two sets of oil cup 1 components. The oil inlet 23 of the baffle channel at the uppermost part is used to communicate with the external space above the oil cup 1, and the oil outlet 24 of the baffle channel at the lowermost part is used to communicate with the inside of the oil cup 1.

[0061] The oil cup assembly further includes a torque detection mechanism 13. The torque detection mechanism 13 is connected to the oil cup 1. The torque detection mechanism 13 includes a detection hanging arm 11, and the detection hanging arm 11 is used to be hung on the smoke collecting hood 3.

[0062] The oil cup 1 can be connected to the smoke collecting hood 3 through the detection hanging arm 11 to realize the detachable of the oil cup 1. At the same time, when the oil cup 1 is hung on the smoke collecting hood 3 through the detection hanging arms 11 at both ends, the detection hanging arms 11 at both ends can be affected by the gravity of the oil cup 1, so that the torque detection mechanism 13 senses the change of force, and then converts it into the change of the weight of the oil stain in the oil cup 1.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 1 shown, torque detection mechanisms 13 are provided at both ends in the length direction of the oil cup 1 for hanging on the smoke collecting hood 3 of the range hood. Combining Figure 6 shown, the housing of the torque detection mechanism 13 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the oil cup 1, and the induction shaft of the torque detection mechanism 13 is connected to the detection hanging arm 11. Thus, when the oil cup 1 is hung on the smoke collecting hood 3 through the detection hanging arms 11 at both ends, the detection hanging arms 11 at both ends can be affected by the gravity of the oil cup 1, and the detection hanging arm 11 can transmit the received acting force to the induction shaft of the torque detection mechanism 13, so that the torque detection mechanism 13 senses the change of force, and then converts it into the change of the weight of the oil stain in the oil cup 1.

[0064] The calculation method of the oil quantity in the oil cup 1 is specifically expressed as follows. Assume that the gravity of the empty oil cup 1 is g and the gravity of the full oil cup 1 is G; when the torque value read by the torque detection mechanism 13 is n, the oil quantity percentage x in the oil cup 1 = (n - g / 2) * (G - g) / 2 (single-sided force).

[0065] In this embodiment, the torque detection mechanism 13 is provided with a battery module to supply power for the operation of the torque detection mechanism 13.

[0066] The torque detection mechanism 13 is also provided with a Bluetooth module. The torque detection mechanism 13 can communicate with the processor of the range hood through the Bluetooth module for information interaction.

[0067] Specifically, the processor can receive the torque value detected by the torque detection mechanism 13 and perform the conversion of the oil quantity percentage. An oil quantity display module communicatively connected to the processor is provided on the control panel of the range hood to display the oil quantity percentage in the oil cup 1.

[0068] A reminder module is provided on the control panel of the range hood to remind the user to clean the oil cup 1 when the oil quantity percentage reaches a predetermined value; for example, the reminder module is a red indicator light, and when the oil quantity percentage in the oil cup 1 reaches the predetermined value, the red indicator light lights up.

[0069] At the same time, the processor of the range hood can control the torque detection mechanism 13 to respond only when the range hood is started and closed, and measure the oil quantity in the oil cup 1 once to ensure the battery life of the torque detection mechanism 13.

[0070] Embodiment 2

[0071] As Figures 7 - 9As shown, in an implementable solution, regarding a setting method of the first baffle 21 and the second baffle 22, in this embodiment, both the first baffle 21 and the second baffle 22 are inclined along the length direction of the oil cup 1, and the inclination directions are opposite, thereby forming a baffle channel similar to a "z" shape.

[0072] One end in the length direction of the inclined first baffle 21 is the higher high end, and the other end is the lower low end. The oil inlet 23 is formed at the low end of the first baffle 21, so that the dirty oil falling on the first baffle 21 can smoothly flow along the first baffle 21 to the oil inlet 23.

[0073] Regarding the second baffle 22, in its length direction, the inclined second baffle 22 also forms a higher high end and a lower low end. The oil outlet 24 is formed at the low end of the second baffle 22, so that the dirty oil entering the baffle channel can smoothly flow along the second baffle 22 to the oil outlet 24.

[0074] Specifically, the side edges on both sides in the width direction of the first baffle 21 are respectively abutted and connected to the side wall of the oil cup 1, the side edge of the high end of the first baffle 21 is also abutted and connected to the side wall of the oil cup 1, and the side edge of the low end of the first baffle 21 is spaced from the side wall of the oil cup 1 to form the oil inlet 23. Or, the side edges around the first baffle 21 are all abutted and connected to the side wall of the oil cup 1, and a through hole is formed on the plate surface of one side of the low end of the first baffle 21 to be used as the oil inlet 23.

[0075] The formation manner of the oil outlet 24 on the second baffle 22 is the same as the formation manner of the oil inlet 23 on the first baffle 21, and will not be elaborated here.

[0076] This application also provides an oil fume extractor, including the oil cup assembly of any of the above embodiments.

[0077] In this embodiment, the oil fume extractor includes an oil cup assembly, so the oil fume extractor has all the beneficial effects of the oil cup assembly, which will not be elaborated one by one here.

[0078] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
