[0002] The range hood is used to exhaust the smoke generated by cooking in the kitchen. It includes a range hood body 1 and a smoke exhaust fan 2. The smoke exhaust fan 2 is arranged in the range hood body 1. The range hood body 1 includes a fan volute 21, an air outlet 22, a wind wheel 23 and a check valve plate 24. The existing smoke exhaust fan 2 (such as Figure 1 As shown), since there is no diverter plate 25, the high-speed airflow will be squeezed in the volute tongue area of the fan volute 21, causing airflow noise and air volume loss; the existing noise reduction system (such as Figure 2 As shown), since no noise reduction volute 3 is provided, the air outlet 22 and the air outlet smoke pipe 4 are often connected at a right angle. Therefore, the high-speed airflow will be squeezed in the 90-degree right-angle area where the air outlet 22 and the air outlet smoke pipe 4 are connected, causing airflow volute noise and pressure loss, and the pressure loss reaches 80-100Pa.
[0003] In view of this, a volute structure, a fan and a range hood are disclosed in the patent document with application number 202122703503.3. The end of the guide plate 1 in the above-mentioned prior art away from the air outlet 4 is tangent to the outer edge of the air inlet 3, and the guide plate 1 is set in a different position from the diverter plate 25 in this application. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problem is: the range hood with noise reduction function comprises a range hood main body and a smoke extraction fan, the smoke extraction fan is arranged in the range hood main body, the range hood main body comprises a fan volute, an air outlet, a wind wheel and a check valve plate, the air outlet is connected to the fan volute, the wind wheel is arranged in the fan volute, and the check valve plate is arranged in the air outlet. Its structural feature is that it also includes a diverter plate for dividing the airflow trajectory into two paths to prevent the airflow from being squeezed at the volute tongue of the fan volute and generating noise, the diverter plate is arranged in the air outlet, and the diverter plate separates the air outlet into a first flue and a second flue, and the diverter plate is located below the check valve plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the diverter piece is arranged in a V-shaped structure.
[0007] Furthermore, the diverter plate is arranged in the middle of the air outlet.
[0008] Furthermore, a baffle is provided on the fan volute, and the baffle is parallel to the diverter plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the first flue and the second flue are each matched with a check valve plate.
[0010] Furthermore, another technical purpose of the present invention is to provide a noise reduction system.
[0011] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions.

[0013] Furthermore, rounded corners are provided in the noise reduction volute.
[0014] Compared with the existing technology, the utility model has the following advantages: by arranging the diverter plate in the air outlet, the aerodynamic noise and eddy noise generated by the squeezing of the volute tongue and the volute wall by the high-speed airflow can be reduced, and the flow and pressure loss can also be reduced. In addition, the diverter plate is arranged in a V-shaped structure to reduce the resistance to the flue gas.
[0015] The air outlet and the air smoke pipe are connected through a noise reduction volute, and the noise reduction volute can be used for airflow conversion. When the high-speed airflow passes through the noise reduction volute inlet with rounded corners and then enters the smooth noise reduction volute, it is decelerated and rectified so that the airflow flows smoothly to the noise reduction volute outlet. This can reduce the airflow pressure loss and flow loss when using the traditional right-angle turn connection method between the air smoke pipe and the air outlet, thereby improving the smoke exhaust performance of the range hood.

The range hood body 1 includes a fan volute 21, an air outlet 22, a wind wheel 23 and a check valve plate 24, as well as a diverter plate 25 for dividing the airflow trajectory into two paths to prevent the airflow from being squeezed at the volute tongue of the fan volute 21 and generating noise. The air outlet 22 is made of plastic or metal.
[0033] The air outlet 22 in this embodiment is connected to the fan volute 21, the wind wheel 23 is arranged in the fan volute 21, the check valve plate 24 is arranged in the air outlet 22, and the diverter plate 25 is arranged in the air outlet 22, and the diverter plate 25 separates the air outlet 22 into a first flue 27 and a second flue 28, and the diverter plate 25 is located below the check valve plate 24.
[0034] The diverter plate 25 in this embodiment is arranged in a V-shaped structure. The diverter plate 25 is arranged in the middle of the air outlet 22. A surrounding plate 26 is provided on the fan volute 21. The surrounding plate 26 is parallel to the right side of the diverter plate 25. The first flue 27 and the second flue 28 are each equipped with a check valve plate 24, that is, when smoking, the smoke in the two flues can push open the check valve plates 24 respectively.
[0035] The noise reduction system in this embodiment includes a range hood and a noise reduction volute 3. The noise reduction volute 3 is provided with a noise reduction volute inlet 31 and a noise reduction volute outlet 32. The noise reduction volute inlet 31 is connected to the air outlet 22, and the noise reduction volute outlet 32 is connected to the air outlet pipe 4. Rounded corners are provided inside the noise reduction volute 3.
[0036] The noise reduction method of the noise reduction system in this embodiment is as follows: the flue gas enters the fan volute 21 and flows in the fan volute 21. When the flue gas enters the air outlet 22, the air outlet 22 is divided into a first flue 27 and a second flue 28 by arranging a diverter plate 25 in the air outlet 22, so that the flue gas can flow in two ways, so as to reduce the aerodynamic noise and eddy noise generated by the high-speed airflow squeezing the volute tongue and volute wall of the fan volute 21, and also reduce the flow and pressure loss; the air outlet 22 is connected to the noise reduction volute 3, and the noise reduction volute 3 can be used for airflow conversion, that is, the high-speed airflow enters the smooth noise reduction volute 3 through the noise reduction volute inlet 31 with rounded corners, decelerates and rectifies the airflow so that the airflow flows smoothly to the noise reduction volute outlet 32, so as to reduce the airflow pressure loss and flow loss, thereby improving the smoke exhaust performance of the range hood.
[0037] Specifically, the range hood with noise reduction function is as follows Figure 3As shown, a diverter piece 25 with a V-shaped structure is installed in the middle position inside the air outlet 22, which can divide the high-speed airflow into two flows. After separation, the airflow vortex noise and air volume loss are greatly reduced, the circulation environment is improved, and the airflow congestion is significantly cleared; the diverter piece 25 is connected to the air outlet 22, and the specific position is between the check valve piece 24.
[0038] The noise reduction system Figure 6 As shown, a noise reduction volute 3 is installed in the 90-degree connection area between the air outlet 22 and the air outlet smoke pipe 4 for air flow conversion. The high-speed airflow passes through the noise reduction volute inlet 31 provided with a transition fillet and then enters the smooth noise reduction volute 3 to slow down and rectify the airflow so that it flows smoothly to the noise reduction volute outlet 32, so as to reduce air flow extrusion and snail noise, and the noise can be reduced by 2-3dB; installing the noise reduction volute 3 for air flow conversion can reduce the airflow pressure loss to 5-10Pa, which greatly improves the smoke exhaust effect of the range hood.
