These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Specifically, the use of terms such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.
[0036] Range hoods are mainly used to extract cooking fumes from the kitchen. Typically, range hoods are equipped with an oil cup device, where the condensed fumes collected by the hood are stored after entering the oil cup.
[0037] In existing technology, the oil cup and the range hood are usually connected by a clip. After a period of use, a large amount of grease will accumulate in the oil cup, requiring disassembly and cleaning.
[0038] However, repeated disassembly and reassembly of the oil cup can cause the latching structure between the oil cup and the range hood to loosen, which is not conducive to the long-term use of the oil cup.
[0039] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides an oil cup structure and a range hood. The oil cup structure features an oil drain opening on the cup body, which is opened or closed using a closing mechanism. The position of the closing mechanism is adjusted via an adjusting component to control the opening and closing of the oil drain opening. When cleaning the oil stains in the cup body, simply remove the closing mechanism from the oil drain opening using the adjusting component to open the opening, allowing the oil stains to flow out of the cup body. This makes cleaning convenient and quick, reduces the number of times the cup body needs to be disassembled, and thus reduces the possibility of the cup body falling off due to loosening of the latches between the cup body and the range hood.
[0040] The technical solutions of this application and how they solve the aforementioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments may exist independently or in combination with each other. Identical or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] This application provides an oil cup structure, referring to... Figures 1 to 5 The oil cup structure includes:
[0042] The cup body 100 is used to hold the oil grease from the range hood. The cup body 100 has an oil drain port 110 for draining the oil grease from the cup body 100.
[0043] The opening and closing element 200 is slidably disposed within the cup body 100 to open or close the grease port 110.
[0044] An adjustment component 300 is disposed on the cup body 100 and connected to the opening and closing component 200 so as to drive the opening and closing component 200 to slide by moving the adjustment component 300.
[0045] The cup body 100 is detachably connected to the range hood. For example, a buckle is provided on one of the cup body 100 and the range hood, and a slot is provided on the other, so that the buckle can be engaged in the slot, thereby realizing the detachable connection of the cup body 100. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the observation of the oil stains inside the cup body 100, the cup body 100 is transparent.
[0046] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 When oil stains are observed to accumulate inside the cup body 100, a container is placed under the grease trap 110 to collect them. The opening and closing element 200 is moved out of the grease trap 110 by adjusting the component 300, allowing the grease to flow out of the cup body 100. After the grease has flowed out, the opening and closing element 200 is moved back into the grease trap 110 by adjusting the component 300 to block it, allowing the cup body 100 to continue storing grease. This method is convenient and quick to clean, reducing the number of times the cup body 100 needs to be disassembled, thus reducing the possibility of the cup body 100 falling off due to loosening of the latches between the cup body 100 and the range hood.
[0047] In one possible design, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The adjustment assembly 300 includes a support 310, a driven rod 320, and an adjustment member 330. The support 310 is disposed inside the cup body 100. The driven rod 320 is connected to the opening and closing member 200. The adjustment member 330 is disposed on the support 310 and connected to the driven rod 320. The adjustment member 330 drives the driven rod 320 to slide, thereby causing the opening and closing member 200 to slide and open and close the grease port 110.
[0048] Specifically, the support 310 is shaped like a "Z", and both ends of the support 310 are fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the cup body 100 by screws. The grease trap 110 is opened at the bottom of the support 310. The "Z" shaped support 310 avoids clogging the grease trap 110, so that oil can flow out from the grease trap 110.
[0049] In one possible design, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The adjusting component 330 includes an active top pin 331 and a swing arm 332. One end of the swing arm 332 is hinged to the support 310. The active top pin 331 is connected to the swing arm 332. The active top pin 331 slides through the cup body 100. The swing arm 332 is connected to the driven rod 320 to drive the driven rod 320 to slide open and close the oil vent 110.
[0050] One end of the swing arm 332 is connected to a rotating shaft 350, which is rotatably mounted on the support 310. The rotating shaft 350 is horizontally positioned so that the rotation axis of the swing arm 332 is in the horizontal direction.
[0051] One end of the active top pin 331 passes through the bottom of the cup body 100 and extends outside the cup body 100 so that the active top pin 331 can be manually pressed. The other end of the active top pin 331 passes through the support 310 and abuts against the swing arm 332 so that rotating the top pin drives the swing arm 332 to rotate away from the bottom of the cup body 100. The swing arm 332 drives the driven rod 320 to move away from the bottom of the cup body 100. The driven rod 320 drives the opening and closing member 200 to be removed from the oil vent 110, thereby realizing the function of draining oil.
[0052] In one possible design, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The adjustment assembly 300 also includes a reset member 340, which is disposed on the support 310 and connected to the driven rod 320 to drive the driven rod 320 to slide toward the oil drain port 110 and close the oil drain port 110.
[0053] The reset member 340 includes an elastic part disposed on the driven rod 320 and abutting against the support 310 to drive the driven rod 320 to slide toward the grease port 110.
[0054] The elastic part is located on the side of the swing arm 332 away from the bottom of the oil cup. One end of the elastic part abuts against the top of the bracket, and the other end abuts against the top of the driven rod 320, so as to drive the driven rod 320 to move the oil drain port 110, so as to push the opening and closing member 200 into the oil drain port 110, realize the reset of the opening and closing member 200, and prevent oil from leaking out.
[0055] The elastic part is a spring, and a limiting rod 311 is provided on the support 310. The spring is sleeved on the limiting rod 311. The limiting rod 311 helps to prevent the spring from disengaging from the driven rod 320, thus limiting the position of the spring. There is a gap between the limiting rod 311 and the driven rod 320 to allow for the range of motion of the driven rod 320. The limiting rod 311 and the driven rod 320 are coaxially arranged. Furthermore, the limiting rod 311 is a screw, and the limiting rod 311 is threadedly connected to the support 310.
[0056] In one possible design, refer to Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4 The swing arm 332 has a first waist-shaped hole 3321, the driven rod 320 has a first limiting part 321, the driven rod 320 passes through the first waist-shaped hole 3321, and the top of the swing arm 332 abuts against the first limiting part 321. The reset member 340 is located on the side of the swing arm 332 away from the oil vent 110.
[0057] The length of the first oblong hole 3321 is greater than the diameter of the driven rod 320, thus allowing the driven rod 320 a certain amount of movement space to accommodate the positional changes of the corresponding driven rod 320 during the rotation of the swing arm 332. The first limiting part 321 is fixedly sleeved on the driven rod 320. The diameter of the first limiting part 321 is greater than the width of the first oblong hole 3321. The first limiting part 321 abuts against the upper surface of the swing arm 332, so that the swing arm 332 drives the first limiting part 321, thereby driving the driven rod 320 to move.
[0058] In one possible design, a connecting sleeve 400 is provided inside the cup body 100, and an active top pin 331 is slidably inserted into the connecting sleeve 400 and extends to the outside of the cup body 100.
[0059] The cup body 100 has a through hole, and a connecting sleeve 400 is disposed on the through hole. An active push pin 331 slides through the connecting sleeve 400. The height of the connecting sleeve 400 is adapted to the height of the cup body 100. The connecting sleeve 400 is a rubber stopper, and it is inserted and fixed inside the through hole to seal the through hole and prevent oil from flowing out. The connecting sleeve 400 has a ring structure, and the active push pin 331 slides through the connecting sleeve 400.
[0060] In one possible design, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The swing arm 332 has a second waist-shaped hole 3322, and the active top pin 331 has a second limiting part 3311. The active top pin 331 passes through the second waist-shaped hole 3322, and the swing arm 332 abuts against the second limiting part 3311 so that the second limiting part 3311 drives the swing arm 332 to rotate in a direction away from the oil vent 110.
[0061] The length of the second oblong hole 3322 is greater than the diameter of the active push pin 331, thus allowing the active push pin 331 a certain amount of moving space to accommodate the positional changes of the corresponding active push pins 331 during the rotation of the swing arm 332. The second limiting part 3311 is fixedly sleeved on the active push pin 331. The diameter of the second limiting part 3311 is greater than the width of the second oblong hole 3322. The second limiting part 3311 abuts against the lower surface of the swing arm 332, so that the swing arm 332 can be driven to rotate through the second limiting part 3311 on the active push pin 331.
[0062] In one possible design, the oil cup structure also includes a connecting plate 500, which is connected to the support 310, and a displacement space is formed between the connecting plate 500 and the support 310, with the swing arm 332 located within the displacement space.
[0063] The connecting plate 500 is L-shaped, and the bottom of the support 310 also has an L-shaped connecting protrusion. The two ends of the connecting plate 500 are fixedly connected to the connecting protrusion and the bottom of the support 310 by screws, respectively. The connecting plate 500 and the connecting protrusion on the support 310 form a rectangular displacement space. The swing arm 332 is installed in the displacement space. The connecting plate 500 restricts the position of the swing arm 332, preventing the swing arm 332 from moving out from the side and preventing the device from detaching from the active top pin 331 and the driven rod 320 due to vibration during use or transportation.
[0064] In one possible design, the opening / closing element 200 is a rubber block.
[0065] The opening / closing element 200 is located at the bottom of the support 310. The opening / closing element 200 is conical in shape to facilitate sealing the grease trap 110, preventing oil leakage from the grease trap 110 when it is blocked. The driven rod 320 is fixedly installed with the opening / closing element 200 to push it to move. The opening / closing element 200 is a rubber block with certain elasticity and compressibility to achieve a better sealing effect.
[0066] Secondly, this application provides a range hood, including a range hood body and an oil cup structure disposed on the range hood body.
[0067] The oil cup structure in this embodiment is the same as the oil cup structure provided in any of the above embodiments, and can bring the same or similar technical effects. It will not be described in detail here, but can be referred to the description of the above embodiments.
[0068] The range hood provided in this application has an oil drain port 110 on the cup body 100. The oil drain port 110 is opened or closed using an opening and closing component 200, and the position of the opening and closing component 200 is adjusted by an adjusting component 300 to open and close the oil drain port 110. When it is necessary to clean the oil stains in the cup body 100, it is only necessary to remove the opening and closing component 200 from the oil drain port 110 by adjusting the component 300 to open the oil drain port 110, and the oil stains can flow out of the cup body 100 from the oil drain port 110. The cleaning is convenient and quick, reducing the number of times the cup body 100 is disassembled, thereby reducing the possibility of the cup body 100 falling off due to the loosening of the buckle between the cup body 100 and the range hood.
