Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a range hood accessory, in particular to an embedded range hood mounting buckle. Background Art

[0002] Range hoods have become an essential appliance in modern kitchens. They use powerful suction to expel cooking fumes and steam outdoors, keeping the kitchen air fresh. However, existing range hood installation methods have numerous shortcomings, impacting their effectiveness and user experience.

[0003] Most range hoods on the market today are wall-mounted. While this installation method is simple, it has a significant drawback: the range hood's height cannot be adjusted after installation. Once the installation location is determined, the range hood's height is fixed and cannot be adjusted to meet user needs or changes in kitchen layout, resulting in limited flexibility. Furthermore, wall-mounted range hoods require drilling holes into the wall to secure them, which not only increases installation difficulty but also may damage the wall. If the installation location is not chosen correctly, subsequent adjustments and relocations will be very troublesome.

[0004] To address the shortcomings of wall-mounted range hoods, built-in range hoods have emerged on the market. These range hoods are embedded in the bottom of the cabinet, making better use of kitchen space and enhancing the overall visual effect. However, the installation process for built-in range hoods is still complex, requiring mounting holes to be set up at the bottom of the cabinet. The range hood must be installed from the bottom up into the mounting holes, then lifted into place and secured with bolts. This installation method has the following drawbacks:

[0005] 1. Requires multiple people to coordinate: Installing a built-in range hood typically requires multiple people, one responsible for lifting the hood and another for securing the bolts. For home users, finding sufficient personnel to coordinate the installation can be challenging and time-consuming.

[0006] 2. Complex installation: From setting the mounting holes to lifting the range hood and securing the bolts, every step requires precision. Even the slightest mistake can lead to installation failure or an unstable range hood. Especially in confined kitchens, the installation process is even more inconvenient, prone to operational errors and safety hazards.

[0007] 3. Low installation efficiency: Because it requires the cooperation of multiple people and delicate operation, the installation efficiency of built-in range hoods is low and it takes a long time. This method is particularly inconvenient in some situations where quick installation is required.

[0008] 4. Difficulty in subsequent adjustments: Once the range hood is fixed in the cabinet, subsequent height and position adjustments are very difficult. If the installation height or position needs to be changed, it often needs to be disassembled and reinstalled, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0026] The present invention is further described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. A built-in range hood mounting clip includes a main body 1, an interior of which is provided with a slideway 2. The sidewalls of the main body 1 are further provided with a slideway 3, which extends through the main body 1 and communicates with the slideway 2. An adjusting screw 4 is rotatably mounted within the main body 1 and vertically mounted within the slideway 2. A guide seat 5 is slidably mounted within the slideway 2 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 4. Rotating the adjusting screw 4 drives the guide seat 5 to slide up and down within the slideway 2. A hanging plate 6 is also mounted on the guide seat 5. The hanging plate 6 extends out of the main body 1 through the slideway 3. The hanging plate 6 is supported by a cabinet 7, and the range hood 8 is suspended and mounted on the cabinet 7.

[0027] In one embodiment, the main body 1 includes a bottom plate 11 and a cover plate 12 engaged therewith, and the cover plate 12 and the bottom plate 11 form a sliding groove 3.

[0028] In one embodiment, a plurality of overlapping mounting holes 13 are provided on the cover plate 12 and the bottom plate 11 , and fixing screws are passed through the mounting holes 13 to fix the range hood, thereby fixing the mounting clip to the range hood.

[0029] In one embodiment, a concave retaining ring 41 is provided on the cylindrical surface of the adjusting screw 4 , and a retaining groove 14 is provided on the main body 1 . The adjusting screw 4 is fixed in the retaining ring 41 in the retaining groove 14 , thereby limiting the axial displacement of the adjusting screw 4 .

[0030] In one embodiment, a screw hole 51 is provided on the guide seat 5 , and the adjusting screw 4 is screwed into the screw hole 51 .

[0031] In one embodiment, a hinge hole 52 and a limit platform 53 are provided on the guide seat 5, and a hinge shaft 61 and a limit plate 62 are provided on the hanging plate 6. The hanging plate 6 is rotatably installed in the hinge hole 52 through the hinge shaft 61. When the hanging plate 6 is flipped upward to a set angle, the limit plate 62 is supported on the limit platform 53 to limit the opening angle of the hanging plate 6.

[0032] In one embodiment, a reset torsion spring 9 is provided between the hanging plate 6 and the adjustment seat, and the reset torsion spring 9 drives the hanging plate 6 to always flip upward and open.

[0033] Working Principle: Before the range hood leaves the factory, the main body 1 is mounted on the side wall of the range hood. This can be done by inserting screws or rivets through the mounting holes 13 on the cover plate 12 and the base plate 11, and securing the mounting clips to the range hood 8. After installation, the hanging plate 6 extends out of the main body 1 through the slide 3 and protrudes from the side wall of the range hood.

[0034] When installing the range hood on a cabinet, simply place the range hood into the mounting hole at the bottom of the cabinet and lift it upwards. The main body of the range hood will then pass through the mounting hole and into the interior of the cabinet. When the hanging plate contacts the mounting hole, they squeeze each other, pushing the hanging plate inward and allowing it to pass smoothly through the mounting hole. Once the hanging plate passes through the mounting hole, the hanging plate pops outward under the action of the return torsion spring, allowing the hanging plate to extend into the back of the mounting hole, forming an inverted structure. At this point, the range hood can be suspended from the cabinet using this hanging plate.

[0035] When the hanging plate pops out and contacts the back of the mounting hole, the range hood's height will drop, causing the range hood panel to not fit snugly against the cabinet bottom. Therefore, the user simply rotates the adjustment screw 4 to drive the guide seat 5, which is threaded into the screw hole 51, to slide up and down within the slide 2. The upward and downward sliding of the guide seat 5 drives the hanging plate 6 up and down within the slide 3, thereby adjusting the range hood's height. Rotating the adjustment screw 4 thus precisely controls the vertical position of the guide seat 5 and hanging plate 6, enabling flexible adjustment of the range hood's height to meet varying installation height requirements.

[0036] The embedded range hood mounting clip of the present invention achieves quick installation, secure fixation, and height adjustment of the range hood through the coordinated action of the slideway, adjustment screw, guide seat, and hanging plate. This improves the convenience of installation and adjustment, significantly enhancing range hood installation efficiency, and is therefore suitable for widespread use.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such changes and improvements shall fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
