Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchenware technology, and more specifically, to a condensate box that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] An integrated cooktop is a cooking appliance that integrates multiple kitchen utensils into one unit. The most common design is to place the gas stove on top of the steam oven, so that the steam from the steam oven and the gas stove use the same range hood. Integrated cooktops have advantages such as taking up little kitchen space, being easy to use, having good smoke extraction effect, being energy-saving, low-consumption, and environmentally friendly.

[0003] Patent document CN220817833U discloses an integrated stove with a heat dissipation device. The heat dissipation device is positioned between the cooktop and the cooking appliance, and an internal heat dissipation channel is formed within it. The device includes an air inlet and an exhaust outlet connected to the heat dissipation channel. The air inlet is open to outside air, and the exhaust outlet is located on the rear side of the cooktop panel. A cooling fan within the heat dissipation channel draws outside air in through the air inlet, removes heat generated by the cooking appliance, and then exhausts it through the exhaust outlet. Because the heat dissipation device is positioned between the cooktop and the cooking appliance, it can simultaneously dissipate heat generated by both appliances, making it convenient to use and preventing a rapid increase in kitchen temperature and humidity. Furthermore, since the exhaust outlet is located on the rear side of the cooktop panel, the exhaust air from the heat dissipation device does not directly contact the user, reducing the impact on the user's health.

[0004] The exhaust vents of existing integrated cooktops are located on the back of the cooktop. Dust and food splattered during cooking can enter the exhaust box and its intake pipe through the exhaust vents, causing blockages and hygiene problems.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a condensate box that is easy to clean in order to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0030] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can implement it based on the description.

[0031] It should be understood that terms such as “having,” “comprising,” and “including” as used herein do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.

[0032] like Figure 1-9 As shown, a condensate box that is easy to clean includes a condensate box shell 1 and a connecting plate 2 disposed on the upper surface of the condensate box shell 1. An air vent 3 is provided on the connecting plate 2, and a filter screen mounting groove 4 is provided on the side wall of the air vent 3. A filter screen 5 is disposed in the filter screen mounting groove 4.

[0033] Furthermore, a groove 6 is formed on the upper end face of the connecting plate 2, an exhaust plate 7 is installed in the groove 6, and a steam outlet 8 is formed on the exhaust plate 7.

[0034] Furthermore, the filter installation groove 4 penetrates the side wall of the gas outlet 3 near the center of the gas stove panel 100.

[0035] Furthermore, the filter 5 includes a frame portion 9 and a core portion 10.

[0036] Furthermore, an annular sealing groove 11 is provided on the outer wall of the frame portion 9, and a sealing ring 12 is provided inside the sealing groove 11.

[0037] Furthermore, the sealing ring 12 is annular, and its cross-sectional shape is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the sealing groove 11.

[0038] Furthermore, an upwardly curved annular wing 13 is fixedly provided on the upper part of the outer wall of the sealing ring 12.

[0039] Furthermore, the sealing ring 12 is made of an elastic material.

[0040] Furthermore, the core 10 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).

[0041] Furthermore, a boss 14 is fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 2.

[0042] The working principle of the above technical solution:

[0043] The condensate box includes a condensate box shell and a connecting plate 2 disposed on the upper surface of the condensate box shell 1. The connecting plate 2 has an air vent 3, which is opposite to the opening at the upper end of the condensate box shell 1. The lower surface of the connecting plate 2 has a boss 14 fixedly disposed around the air vent 3. The boss 14 is installed in the mounting hole of the gas stove panel 100 and sealed. The mounting hole is located in the middle of the gas stove panel 100 near the rear. The lower surface of the connecting plate 2 is in contact with the upper surface of the gas stove panel.

[0044] A filter screen mounting groove 4 is provided on the side wall of the air hole 3 of the connecting plate 2. A filter screen 5 is installed in the filter screen mounting groove 4. The filter screen 5 can prevent dust or food residue from entering the condensate box and the air inlet pipe 200 of the condensate box.

[0045] The filter screen 5 can be inserted from the top of the filter screen installation slot 4, or it can be inserted into the filter screen installation slot 4 through the opening on the side wall of the through-hole 3 near the center of the gas stove panel 100. Inserting the filter screen 5 through the side opening eliminates the need to remove the exhaust plate 7 on the connecting plate 2, making it more convenient.

[0046] The filter 5 includes a frame 9 and a core 10. The core 10 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material, which allows steam to be discharged from below and prevents dust or food residue from entering the condensate box.

[0047] An annular sealing groove 11 is provided on the outer wall of the frame part 9. A sealing ring 12 is placed inside the sealing groove 11. The sealing ring 12 is annular, and its cross-sectional shape matches the cross-sectional shape of the sealing groove 11. An upwardly curved annular wing 13 is fixedly provided on the upper part of the outer wall of the sealing ring 12. When the filter screen 5 is installed, the annular wing 13 can be bent upwards. The elasticity of the annular wing 13 presses its outer edge tightly against the filter screen mounting groove 4, thus achieving a seal. This prevents food residue and dust from entering the filter screen mounting groove 4. The sealing ring can be made of polytetrafluoroethylene rubber, fluororubber, or silicone rubber. Polytetrafluoroethylene rubber, fluororubber, or silicone rubber have certain high-temperature resistance and are suitable for use on stovetops.

[0048] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows:

[0049] The easy-to-clean condensate box of this utility model has a filter screen installed on the air outlet of the connecting plate on the upper part of the outer shell to prevent dust above the gas stove or food residue and splashed liquid during cooking from entering the condensate box and the air inlet pipe of the condensate box. Only the filter screen needs to be cleaned during cleaning, making the condensate box easy to clean.

[0050] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 , 9 As shown, a connecting mechanism is provided between the filter screen and the filter screen mounting groove. The connecting mechanism includes a spring groove 15 and a snap-fit ​​groove 17 spaced apart on the side wall of the filter screen mounting groove 4 near the rear of the gas stove panel. A connecting rod groove 22 is provided on the frame part 9 at a position opposite to the snap-fit ​​groove 17. A first spring 16 is fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the spring groove 15. A connecting rod 20 is rotatably provided in the connecting rod groove 22. One end of the connecting rod 20 extending out of the connecting rod groove 22 can enter the snap-fit ​​groove 17. The end of the connecting rod 20 extending out of the connecting rod groove 22 is a downward hook shape. A snap-fit ​​groove 17 is fixedly provided on the lower side surface. A first stop block 24 is placed, with the side of the first stop block 24 facing the frame portion 9 being inclined. A second stop block 19 is slidably disposed on the lower side of the snap-fit ​​groove 17 away from the frame portion 9, with the side of the second stop block 19 away from the frame portion 9 being inclined. A second spring 25 is fixedly connected between the first stop block 24 and the second stop block 19. One end of a third spring 23 is fixedly disposed on the lower end face of the connecting rod 20 in the connecting rod groove 22, on the side of the rotating shaft of the connecting rod 20 near the opening of the connecting rod groove 22. The other side of the third spring 23 is fixedly disposed on the lower side wall of the connecting rod groove 22.

[0051] A first limiting block 21 is fixedly installed on the upper side wall of the connecting rod groove 22, on the side of the rotating shaft of the connecting rod 20 near the bottom surface of the connecting rod groove 22. On the lower side of the groove 17, a second limiting block 18 is fixedly installed on the side of the second stop block 19 away from the first stop block.

[0052] The height of the second block 19 is greater than the height of the first block 24.

[0053] The working principle of the above technical solution:

[0054] Since the filter screen 5 is installed and removed from the top of the filter screen mounting slot 4, the exhaust plate needs to be removed first, which is inconvenient when cleaning the filter screen. In order to facilitate the insertion and removal of the filter screen 5, a connecting mechanism is set between the filter screen and the filter screen mounting slot. The filter screen is inserted into the filter screen mounting slot 4 through the opening on the side wall of the gas outlet 3 near the center of the gas stove panel 100. When installing filter 5, after filter 5 enters the filter installation slot 4, push the filter away from the center of the gas stove panel 100. The front end of connecting rod 20 enters the locking slot 17. The hook-shaped front part of the connecting rod 20 is inclined. When it contacts the inclined surface of the first stop block 24, the connecting rod 20 rotates clockwise by a certain angle. After the hook-shaped part of the connecting rod 20 passes the first stop block 24, it rotates counterclockwise under the pulling force of the third spring 23, so that the hook-shaped part of the connecting rod 20 hooks onto the first stop block 24. When it is necessary to remove the filter, push filter 5 away from the center of the gas stove panel 100 again. The connecting rod 20 moves towards the bottom surface of the locking slot 17. The hook-shaped part of the connecting rod 20 passes over the upper end of the second stop block 19 and hooks onto the second stop block 19. At this point, the filter screen 5 is released. Under the action of the first spring 16, the filter screen 5 moves away from the locking groove 17. The connecting rod 20 is pulled to the second stop by the hook at its front end and moves together with the connecting rod 20. When the second stop 19 contacts the first stop, it can no longer move. The hook at the front end of the connecting rod 20 rotates clockwise by a certain angle under the action of the inclined surface of the second stop, passing over the upper end of the second stop 19. Since the height of the second stop 19 is higher than the height of the first stop 24, the front end of the connecting rod 20 also passes over the first stop 24. The filter screen pops out under the elastic force of the first spring 16. The second stop 19 moves away from the first stop 24 under the action of the second spring 25. The second limiting block 18 is used to limit the position of the second stop 19. The first limiting block 21 prevents the front end of the connecting rod 20 from being too low under the action of the third spring 23, so that it cannot enter the locking groove.

[0055] The filter screen using the above technical solution is easy to put into the filter screen installation slot and easy to take out. The filter screen is blocked by the first stop in the filter screen installation slot. When the stove is in use, it will not move out of the filter screen installation slot due to vibration or other reasons, and can play a good role in blocking dust and food residue.
