Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of range hood technology, specifically to a range hood that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] A range hood, also known as a kitchen exhaust hood, is a kitchen appliance that purifies the kitchen environment. It is installed above the kitchen stove and can quickly remove the waste from the stove and the harmful fumes produced during cooking, exhausting them outdoors, reducing pollution, purifying the air, and providing safety features such as protection against poisoning and explosions.

[0003] The current installation procedure involves drilling holes in the wall, installing a mounting plate, and then hanging the range hood. However, the problem is that you have to rely on feel to find the positions of the two hooks on the back when hanging it, which is time-consuming, laborious, and prone to errors. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a range hood that is easy to install, so as to solve the technical problem that the position of the two hooks on the back needs to be found by feeling when hanging it.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a range hood that is easy to install, comprising a range hood housing and a mounting plate, the mounting plate comprising a mounting plate body, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate body, telescopic rods fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod, a connecting rod rotatably connected to one end of the telescopic rod, and a locking hole provided at one end of the connecting rod;

[0006] Both sides of the range hood housing are fixedly connected with a snap-fit ​​mechanism. The snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a fixed shell, and a snap-fit ​​post is slidably connected inside the fixed shell. A spring is provided between the snap-fit ​​post and the fixed shell.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation process of the range hood is made simpler. The position of the connecting rod can be easily adjusted by the rotating rod and telescopic rod on the mounting plate to align it with the snap-fit ​​mechanism on the range hood housing, which helps to restrict horizontal movement. At the same time, the rotating rod can adopt the structure of a telescopic rod, which can be adapted to different range hood housings.

[0008] Furthermore, the card hole is designed in a conical shape, and a guide groove is provided on one side of the card hole.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the tapered structure of the locking hole helps the locking post to be inserted smoothly. Due to the gradual contraction of the tapered structure, the locking post can be guided to gradually enter the locking hole, avoiding installation difficulties caused by inaccurate alignment.

[0010] Furthermore, a hook is fixedly connected to the front side of the main body of the hanging plate, and two hooks are provided.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the hooks set on the front side of the mounting plate provide a support point for the range hood housing. Through the cooperation of the hooks with the hook holes opened on the back of the range hood housing, the position of the range hood housing can be further fixed to ensure its stability during use.

[0012] Furthermore, a hook hole is provided on the back of the range hood housing, and the hook hole and the hook are equidistant.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the hook holes on the back of the range hood housing are equidistant from the hooks on the front of the mounting plate, ensuring the balance of the range hood housing during installation.

[0014] Furthermore, a panel is provided on the front side of the range hood housing, and a shield is fixedly connected to the top of the range hood housing.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the panel on the front side of the range hood casing is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also serves to protect the internal components. The panel has a touch panel for control, making it convenient for users to control the range hood.

[0016] Furthermore, a crossbar is provided between the telescopic rods to ensure that the telescopic rods move synchronously.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the crossbars installed between the telescopic rods can ensure the synchronicity of the two telescopic rods during the retraction process. Due to the connecting effect of the crossbars, the two telescopic rods will maintain a consistent rhythm when retracting, avoiding installation difficulties or equipment damage caused by asynchronous retraction.

[0018] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0019] This utility model, by setting up a range hood housing, a hanging plate, and a snap-fit ​​mechanism, allows users to complete the installation of the range hood without having to repeatedly fumble and align it, greatly simplifying the installation steps and saving installation time. The snap-fit ​​mechanism makes the installation process faster, reduces the installation difficulty, and enables easy installation, improving installation efficiency. It also solves the technical problem of having to rely on feeling to find the position of the two hooks on the back when hanging the range hood.

[0020] This invention, by setting up a crossbar for synchronization and reinforcement, ensures that the telescopic pole can maintain synchronous movement when retracting or extending, avoiding installation difficulties caused by inconsistent movement of the telescopic pole, and improving the accuracy and stability of installation.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Example

[0027] An easy-to-install range hood, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the range hood includes a housing 1 and a mounting plate 2. The mounting plate 2 includes a mounting plate body 201. A rotating rod 202 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate body 201. Telescopic rods 203 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod 202. A connecting rod 204 is rotatably connected to one end of the telescopic rod 203. A locking hole 205 is provided at one end of the connecting rod 204.

[0028] Both sides of the range hood housing 1 are fixedly connected with a snap-fit ​​mechanism 3. The snap-fit ​​mechanism 3 includes a fixed shell 301, and a snap-fit ​​post 302 is slidably connected inside the fixed shell 301. A spring 303 is provided between the snap-fit ​​post 302 and the fixed shell 301. The spring 303 inside the snap-fit ​​mechanism 3 can push the snap-fit ​​post 302 to automatically snap into the snap-fit ​​hole 205 of the connecting rod 204, eliminating the need for manual alignment and fixing, and greatly improving installation efficiency.

[0029] See Figure 3 The locking hole 205 is designed in a conical shape, and a guide groove 206 is provided on one side of the locking hole 205. The opening of the guide groove 206 further provides path guidance for the locking post 302 to enter the locking hole 205, ensuring the smoothness and stability of the locking process.

[0030] See Figure 2 The front side of the mounting plate body 201 is fixedly connected with a hook 207. There are two hooks 207. Setting two hooks 207 can distribute the weight of the range hood and improve the stability and safety of the installation.

[0031] See Figure 4 The range hood housing 1 has a hook hole 208 on the back. The hook hole 208 and the hook 207 are equidistant. The equidistant design can prevent the range hood from tilting or shaking after installation, thus improving the stability and safety of use.

[0032] See Figure 1 The front side of the range hood housing 1 is provided with a panel 5, and the top of the range hood housing 1 is fixedly connected with a shield 6. The shield 6 fixedly connected to the top of the range hood housing 1 can prevent the oil fumes from spreading outward when they leak, while also increasing the aesthetics of the equipment, improving the practicality of the product, and enhancing the user experience.

[0033] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, holes are drilled in the wall at the predetermined position, and the thickened hanging plate 2 is firmly installed on the wall by expansion screws or other fixing methods;

[0034] After the mounting plate 2 is installed, the worker moves the range hood housing 1 to the vicinity of the mounting plate. Both sides of the range hood housing 1 are fixedly connected to the locking mechanism 3. The locking mechanism 3 has a locking post 302 pushed by a spring 303 inside. The worker rotates the rotating rod 202 down and pulls the telescopic rod 202 so that the connecting rod 204 is aligned with the locking mechanism 3. One end of the connecting rod 204 has a locking hole 205. The worker adjusts the position of the range hood housing so that the locking post 302 can be smoothly locked into the locking hole 205. The conical structure of the locking hole 205 and the guide groove 206 help the locking post 302 to be smoothly locked in, while providing a certain degree of stability.

[0035] After the locking post 302 is successfully engaged in the locking hole 205, the horizontal movement of the range hood housing 1 is restricted. At this time, the worker can lift the range hood housing 1 and move it towards the mounting plate 2. The hook hole 208 on the back of the range hood housing 1 is aligned with the hook 207 on the front side of the mounting plate body 201. The worker only needs to press down on the range hood housing 1 and slide it down to allow the hook 207 to be smoothly inserted into the hook hole 208. Since the hook 207 and the hook hole 208 are equidistant, this ensures the stability and balance of the range hood housing 1 during the installation process.

[0036] Once the hook 207 is fully inserted into the hook hole 208, the range hood housing 1 is securely hung on the mounting plate 2. At this point, the range hood has been installed and can be tested and used. Example

[0037] See Figure 4 A crossbar 4 is provided between the telescopic rods 203. The crossbar 4 is used to ensure that the telescopic rods 203 move synchronously, which improves the stability and reliability of the range hood during installation.

[0038] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, by welding a crossbar 4 to the telescopic body of the two telescopic rods 203, it is possible to avoid unilateral tilting when the range hood housing 1 is lifted, which would lead to equipment failure.
