TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of kitchen appliances, specifically relates to an extractor hood. BACKGROUND
[0002] The existing extractor hood forms a negative pressure area by the operation of the internal fan system, and the oil fume flow in the kitchen is discharged to the outside of the room under the action of atmospheric pressure after passing through the extractor hood. In order to avoid the escape of oil fume, a movable smoke baffle is generally arranged at the air inlet of the extractor hood, specifically like the Chinese invention patent application "Smoke baffle driving system, smoke baffle driving method, extractor hood and storage medium" with the application number 202310804283.4 and the application publication number CN116734301A, the smoke baffle driving system is connected with the smoke baffle and includes a motor; a transmission mechanism connected between the motor and the smoke baffle, which can convert the rotating action of the motor into the swinging action of driving the smoke baffle; a hydraulic system connected with the transmission mechanism, which is used to provide resistance for the transmission mechanism to adjust the driving speed of the smoke baffle.
[0003] And the air inlet of the existing extractor hood is usually provided with an oil screen, which needs to be taken down and put into the sink for cleaning when cleaning. The existing oil screen is generally located behind the smoke baffle, that is, in the user's visual blind area. When disassembling the oil screen, the user often needs to adopt the posture of bending over and looking down to observe the position of the oil screen, or touch the approximate position with the hand for touch perception, and then take down the oil screen, so that the disassembly of the oil screen is relatively inconvenient. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
[0004] The utility model solves the technical problem that the existing technology provides an extractor hood convenient for disassembling and assembling the oil screen.

[0008] An oil screen, which is arranged at the air inlet;
[0009] The utility model is characterized in that further comprises:
[0010] The telescopic mechanism has an output end capable of telescoping forward and backward, and the output end is detachably connected with the oil screen, so that when the smoke baffle is in the first position, the telescopic mechanism can drive the oil screen to extend forward along the space below the smoke baffle and to be separated from the air inlet.
[0011] Therefore, when the oil screen needs to be detached, the smoke baffle can be opened, and the telescopic mechanism can be used to extend the oil screen forward along the space below the smoke baffle, so that the oil screen is exposed in the field of view of the user, thereby facilitating the user to detach the oil screen; after the oil screen is installed on the output end of the telescopic mechanism, the telescopic mechanism can drive the oil screen to retract backward to the air inlet, so that the oil screen can perform normal oil fume filtering work.
[0012] Preferably, when the oil screen is located at the air inlet, the telescopic mechanism is retracted into the cabinet, so that the design of the telescopic mechanism does not affect the appearance of the range hood and the opening and closing of the smoke baffle.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model lie in that: by arranging the telescopic mechanism, when the oil screen needs to be disassembled and assembled, the smoke baffle can be opened, the telescopic mechanism is used to stretch the oil screen forward along the space below the smoke baffle, so that the oil screen is exposed in the visual range of the user, thereby facilitating the user to disassemble and assemble the oil screen; after the oil screen is installed to the output end of the telescopic mechanism, the telescopic mechanism can drive the oil screen to retract backward to the air inlet, so that the oil screen can perform normal oil fume filtering work.

[0040] The telescopic mechanism 4 has an output end capable of telescoping forward and backward, and the output end and the oil screen 3 are constrained together in a detachable manner, so that when the smoke baffle 2 is in the first position, the telescopic mechanism 4 can drive the oil screen 3 to extend forward along the space below the smoke baffle 2 (move downward from back to front and upward from bottom to top) to below the lower end of the smoke baffle 2 and be separated from the air inlet 10a, at this time, the oil screen 3 is arranged vertically, please refer to Figure 6 , 7 . When the oil screen 3 is located at the air inlet 10a, the telescopic mechanism 4 is retracted in the casing 1.
[0041] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 , 5 , 8, 9, the telescopic mechanism 4 includes a motor as a power source 400 and a linkage assembly 40 capable of telescoping forward and backward under the drive of the power source 400. The motor output shaft extends left and right. The linkage assembly 40 has two groups, one left and one right. Specifically, a front and back extending support plate 11 is vertically arranged at a position corresponding to each group of linkage assemblies 40 in the casing 1, and the support plate 11 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 111 extending downward from back to front and a fixing hole 112 located at the rear side of the strip-shaped hole 111, and the extension direction of the strip-shaped hole 111 is defined as a first direction, and the fixing hole 112 is located in the first direction.
[0042] Each linkage assembly 40 includes:
[0043] Two first linkages 41 arranged in X shape, the intersection of the two first linkages 41 is rotationally connected and the rotation axis extends left and right, and the two first linkages 41 arranged in X shape are taken as a group of linkage members, there are multiple groups, arranged along the first direction, and the corresponding end portions of the first linkages 41 of adjacent two groups of linkage members are rotationally connected and the rotation axis extends left and right;
[0044] An oil screen support 46 in strip shape, the middle portion thereof is rotationally connected with the front end portion of one of the first linkages 41 of the linkage member located at the most front side through a second linkage 42 and the rotation axis extends left and right; the upper end portion thereof is rotationally connected with the front end portion of the other first linkage 41 of the linkage member located at the most front side and the rotation axis extends left and right; the oil screen support 46 is the output end of the telescopic mechanism 4;
[0045] The drive rod 45, the third link 43, and the two fourth links 44 are connected. The first end of the drive rod 45 is connected to the motor output shaft and can rotate with the motor output shaft. The second end of the drive rod 45 is rotatably connected to the first end of the third link 43 and the rotation axis extends left and right. The second end of the third link 43 is rotatably connected to the junction of the two first links 41 of the foremost link member through the second rotating shaft 431 and the rotation axis extends left and right. The second rotating shaft 431 is inserted into the strip hole 111 and can move along the strip hole 111.

At this time, since the first ends of the two fourth connecting rods 44 are fixed relative to the support plate 11, the connecting rods rotatably connected to the second ends of the two fourth connecting rods 44 can achieve extension and retraction in the first direction, thereby driving the oil screen bracket 46 to extend forward to the front side of the air inlet or retract backward to the air inlet.
[0047] To facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the oil mesh, in this embodiment, the oil mesh 3 is magnetically secured to the oil mesh bracket 46. Specifically, as shown... Figure 8 , 9 As shown, the oil mesh 3 has a mesh body 30 and a frame 31 surrounding the mesh body 30. The rear sides of the left and right sides of the frame 31 have insertion holes 310. Each oil mesh support 46 has a hook 461 and a magnet 462 on its front side. The hook 461 is located below the magnet 462, and the hook part of the hook 461 can extend into the insertion hole 310 of the oil mesh frame. The magnet 462 can be magnetically attracted to the rear sides of the left and right sides of the frame 31. This achieves the binding of the oil mesh 3 and the oil mesh support 46 together. When installing the oil mesh 3, align the insertion hole 310 on the oil mesh 3 with the hook 461 on the oil mesh support 46 and insert the hook part of the hook 461. Then rotate the oil mesh so that the upper part of the rear sides of the left and right sides of the oil mesh frame 31 is attracted to the magnet 462 on the oil mesh support 46. This facilitates operation.
