AI Technical Summary
Existing range hoods are noisy when operating, resulting in a poor user experience, and lack a rectification and noise reduction structure.
A rectification and noise reduction structure is set on the volute, including a rectification grid and a guide ring. The rectification grid is located inside the impeller and is formed by welding to form grid holes to weaken the boundary layer separation in the impeller blade passage and reduce vortex noise.
The rectifier and noise reduction structure significantly reduces the noise of the range hood during operation, improving the user experience.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an air duct system with a rectification and noise reduction structure, belonging to the field of kitchen appliances. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of a range hood is to exhaust cooking fumes, odors, and steam generated during cooking outdoors, maintaining a clean and hygienic kitchen environment. When the range hood is working, a motor drives an impeller inside the casing to rotate, forming a flue within the casing. The rotation of the impeller draws the cooking fumes into the flue and exhausts them outdoors. However, because most range hoods on the market currently lack a rectification and noise reduction structure in the casing, the noise level is generally high when the motor drives the impeller, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the existing technology and to provide a duct system with a reasonable structural design and a rectification and noise reduction structure.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is: the air duct system with rectification and noise reduction structure includes a volute and an impeller, the impeller is installed inside the volute, and its structural feature is that it also includes a rectification and noise reduction structure, the rectification and noise reduction structure includes a rectification grid and a guide ring, the rectification grid is welded to the guide ring, the guide ring is installed at the air inlet of the volute, and the rectification grid is located on the inner side of the impeller.
[0005] Furthermore, the rectifying grid includes multiple grid rods arranged in a circular array, with grid holes formed between adjacent grid rods.
[0006] Furthermore, one end of the mesh rod is welded to the air guide ring, and the other end of the mesh rod is welded to the mesh ring.
[0007] Furthermore, a reinforcing ring is welded to the middle of the grid rod.
[0008] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the rectifier grid is smaller than the inner diameter of the impeller.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: the duct system with rectification and noise reduction structure can play the role of rectification and noise reduction by setting the rectification and noise reduction structure on the volute. That is, the rectification mesh is welded on the air guide ring to form a rectification and noise reduction structure, which is then installed on the volute with screws. Installing the rectification mesh at the impeller inlet can reduce the boundary layer separation in the impeller passage, thereby reducing eddy noise. Attached Figure Description
