Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fume hoods, specifically an exhaust mechanism for fume hoods. Background Technology

[0002] Cabinet-type exhaust hoods, commonly known as fume hoods, are similar to enclosed hoods. Small parts spray painting cabinets and chemical laboratory fume hoods are typical examples of cabinet-type exhaust hood structures. Large chamber-type fume hoods have one side completely open, allowing operators to work inside; they are mainly used for painting large parts and bagging powder materials. The working opening of the fume hood significantly affects the airflow distribution within, which in turn directly impacts the effectiveness of the cabinet-type exhaust hood.

[0003] Fume hoods are used to capture, contain, and remove waste gases and harmful gases, creating a safe working environment and preventing users from inhaling waste gases or harmful gases that could endanger their lives or health. Fume hoods consist of an upper cabinet and a lower cabinet. The upper cabinet is used for experimental operations, while the lower cabinet stores reagents, etc. An exhaust fan is installed above the workbench in the upper cabinet to remove waste gases generated during experiments. Currently, the leakage rate of the baffle plate when the viewing window is open is relatively high, which not only pollutes the laboratory environment but also endangers the safety of operators. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above problems, that is, to address the issues raised in the background art, this utility model proposes an exhaust mechanism for a fume hood, which includes a fume hood body, characterized in that: the fume hood body is composed of a ventilation upper body and an experimental cabinet body, and the ventilation upper body is composed of an operating cavity, an experimental table surface, an inspection port, a power socket, and a sliding window;

[0005] A wind-fixing plate is installed in the upper part of the operating cavity, and the wind-fixing plate is placed in the operating cavity at three inclinations by a set of brackets;

[0006] A secondary guide plate is installed on one side of the operating chamber. The secondary guide plate is placed in the operating chamber by a set of brackets. The upper part of the secondary guide plate is connected to the lower end of the wind-stabilizing plate.

[0007] A baffle is installed on one side of the operating cavity. The baffle is placed in the operating cavity by a set of brackets. The baffle is located below the secondary guide plate. The top of the baffle is located between the secondary guide plate and the inner wall of the operating cavity. The bottom of the baffle is slightly higher than the experimental platform.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the wind deflector, the secondary guide plate, and the baffle plate are all made of HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) board, which has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and high mechanical strength. It is suitable for harsh environments such as chemical experiments, extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the top of the operating chamber is provided with an exhaust port, which is connected to the top of the housing of the ventilation upper body, and an exhaust fan unit (a common prior art, not shown in the figure) is installed inside the housing of the ventilation upper body.

[0010] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model forms a stable airflow distribution through the synergistic effect of a three-stage airflow guiding structure consisting of a fixed air plate, a secondary guide plate, and a baffle plate. The fixed air plate is installed at an angle to guide the airflow upward, the secondary guide plate connects to the fixed air plate and further constrains the airflow path, and the baffle plate located below can reduce turbulence at the operating port. The three components work together to significantly reduce the gas leakage rate when the viewing window is open and improve the waste gas capture efficiency. The multi-layer airflow guiding structure effectively inhibits the leakage of harmful gases and reduces energy consumption (traditional exhaust volume is 2000 h / m³, now it is 1300 h / m³), saving energy and reducing emissions. It also has low requirements for the fan, avoids laboratory waste gas pollution, and reduces the risk of operators inhaling toxic gases, thus protecting the health and safety of laboratory personnel.

[0016] The following is a reference to the appendix. Figures 1-4 The preferred embodiments of this utility model are described below. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely for explaining the technical principles of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] This invention proposes an exhaust mechanism for a fume hood. When the fume hood is in operation, the exhaust mechanism is activated. The air-stabilizing plate 1 guides the airflow in the operating chamber upward, reducing turbulence. The secondary guide plate 2 further constrains the airflow, guiding its direction and directing it along a predetermined path to the exhaust port 9. This ensures that harmful gases of different heights and specific gravities can be discharged, thereby maximizing the limitation of pollution escape. The baffle plate 3 helps to ensure that harmful gases inside the fume hood body 6 are effectively diluted, suppressing turbulence near the operating port, and enabling the airflow to pass evenly through the opening and sliding door plane of the fume hood body 6. This eliminates blind spots and prevents harmful substances from overflowing from the fume hood body 6. Finally, the exhaust gas is discharged through the exhaust port 9, ensuring a safe experimental environment. The combination of these three factors significantly reduces the gas leakage rate when the window is open, improves the exhaust gas capture efficiency, and the multi-layer flow guiding structure effectively suppresses the leakage of harmful gases (the leakage rate is reduced by more than 30% compared to traditional fume hoods), reduces energy consumption (traditional exhaust volume is 2000 h / m³, now it is 1300 h / m³), saves energy and reduces emissions, has low requirements for fans, avoids experimental exhaust gas from polluting the laboratory environment, and at the same time reduces the risk of operators inhaling toxic gases, ensuring the health and safety of experimental personnel.
