Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of kitchen appliance technology, specifically relating to a range hood. Background Technology

[0002] Range hoods are typically installed above the stove to extract fumes, moisture, and various harmful gases and pollutants generated during cooking.

[0003] During operation, the grease in the cooking fumes condenses into liquid oil droplets. These droplets gradually collect and drip down along the internal flow channel of the range hood. Range hoods typically use an oil cup to collect these dripping oil stains, preventing them from dripping directly onto the stovetop or floor.

[0004] However, existing oil cups are only connected to the bottom of the range hood by clips or hooks, which can easily become loose or even fall off, and also affect the overall aesthetics. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a range hood to solve the problems of oil cups in range hoods being prone to loosening or even falling off, and the overall aesthetics being insufficient.

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

[0051] 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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0053] In this application, the terms "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of terms such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0054] Furthermore, the terms "set up," "connect," and "fix" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be an internal connection between two devices, components, or parts. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0055] Unless otherwise stated, the term "multiple" means two or more.

[0056] As can be seen from the background technology, range hoods can collect dripping oil stains through an oil cup, preventing oil stains from dripping directly onto the stovetop or floor.

[0057] The existing oil cup is only connected to the bottom of the range hood by a buckle or hook. During the operation of the range hood, due to factors such as machine vibration, the gradual increase of oil weight, and frequent disassembly, the oil cup is prone to loosening or even falling off, which not only causes oil to spill but also brings cleaning trouble to users.

[0058] Furthermore, the oil cup needs to efficiently collect grease, prevent dripping, and be easy to disassemble and clean. These functional requirements may lead to a conflict between the shape and material of the oil cup and the design style of the range hood body. For example, for ease of cleaning, the oil cup may be made of detachable plastic, while the body may be made of materials such as metal or glass.

[0059] Therefore, from an appearance perspective, the shape, color, and material of the oil cup are often difficult to perfectly blend with the main style of the range hood. The oil cup being directly exposed at the bottom of the range hood appears rather abrupt and affects the overall simplicity and aesthetics of the range hood.

[0060] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a range hood comprising an inlet housing, a connector, and a support member. The support member is disposed below the inlet housing and is connected to the inlet housing via the connector. The support member is spaced apart from the bottom plate of the inlet housing, and a receiving portion for accommodating an oil cup is formed between the support member and the bottom plate of the inlet housing.

[0061] By placing the oil cup within the receiving portion formed between the support member and the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing, the support member can not only support the oil cup but also resist displacement or loosening that may be caused by vibration or increased weight of the oil cup, thus improving the stability of the oil cup's position. Furthermore, the support member can shield the oil cup from below, reducing its impact on the overall appearance of the range hood and improving its aesthetic appeal.

[0062] 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.

[0063] Combination Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a range hood. The range hood typically includes a main housing 900 and a smoke collection box 800. The main housing 900 is located above the smoke collection box 800. A smoke extraction fan (not shown in the figure) is installed inside the main housing 900, and a smoke collection chamber is formed inside the smoke collection box 800. The smoke collection chamber is connected to the air inlet of the smoke extraction fan, and the air outlet of the smoke extraction fan can be connected to an exhaust duct. The smoke collection chamber typically has a smoke inlet facing the cooking area. The fumes generated in the cooking area are drawn into the smoke collection chamber through the smoke inlet by the smoke extraction fan, and then discharged through the exhaust duct.

[0064] In some embodiments, a smoke inlet housing 100 may be provided at the bottom of the smoke collection box 800, and the smoke inlet housing 100 may be raised or lowered relative to the smoke collection box 800.

[0065] The smoke inlet housing 100 is lowered and can be located below the smoke collection box 800, closer to the cooktop. The smoke inlet located on the front side of the smoke inlet housing 100, i.e. the side facing the cooking area, can effectively capture the cooking fumes and achieve efficient collection of fumes.

[0066] The smoke inlet housing 100 rises and can be stored inside the smoke collection box 800, with the bottom of the smoke inlet housing 100 flush with the bottom of the smoke collection box 800, to achieve a compact structure for the range hood, thus facilitating the simplicity and rational use of kitchen space.

[0067] It should be noted that the oil droplets dripping from inside the smoke collection box 800 can be collected into the smoke inlet housing 100 and eventually flow into the oil cup 500 located at the bottom of the smoke inlet housing 100.

[0068] Range hoods typically have a front and a rear side arranged opposite each other. The front side of the range hood (facing the center X direction) is for the user and has a control panel for operation. The rear side of the range hood (facing away from the center X direction) is for connecting to the surface where the range hood will be installed.

[0069] The range hood also has a left and right side that are positioned opposite each other. Taking the user's perspective facing the front of the range hood as an example, the left side of the range hood (facing away from the front)... Figure 1 The side facing the Y direction) is closer to the user's left, and the right side of the range hood (facing) Figure 1 (The side facing the Y direction) is closer to the user's right side.

[0070] The range hood also features a top and bottom that are positioned opposite each other. The top of the range hood (facing...) Figure 1 The side facing Z (in the middle) can be used to connect with the mounting surface of the range hood. The smoke inlet housing 100 is located at the bottom of the range hood (facing away from the wall). Figure 1 The air inlet of the smoke inlet housing 100 is located on the side facing Z and near the rear of the range hood, so that the air inlet of the smoke inlet housing 100 is located at the rear of the cooking area to fully capture the oil fumes generated during cooking.

[0071] In other embodiments, the range hood includes a smoke inlet housing 100. A smoke collection box 800 can be reused to form the smoke inlet housing 100, and an oil cup 500 is disposed at the bottom of the smoke collection box 800 to collect oil droplets dripping from inside the smoke collection box 800.

[0072] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the range hood further includes a connector 200 and a support 300; the support 300 is disposed below the smoke inlet housing 100, and the support 300 is connected to the smoke inlet housing 100 via the connector 200; the support 300 is spaced apart from the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100, and a receiving portion 400 for accommodating the oil cup 500 is formed between the support 300 and the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100.

[0073] The connector 200 ensures that the support 300 is securely fixed to the smoke inlet housing 100. By using the connector 200, the support 300 can be firmly mounted on the smoke inlet housing 100, which helps to provide a foundation for the stability of the subsequent oil cup 500.

[0074] A gap exists between the support member 300 and the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100, forming a receiving portion 400 for accommodating the oil cup 500. This receiving portion 400 provides a dedicated space for placing the oil cup 500, significantly improving its stability. The oil cup 500 can be effectively fixed within a specific area, making it less susceptible to vibration or increased grease weight during range hood operation, reducing the risk of loosening and falling off.

[0075] The support component 300 not only supports the oil cup 500 but also visually conceals it. Since the oil cup 500 is typically made of a different material than the main body of the range hood (such as plastic), it might affect the overall design. With the support component 300 concealing it, the oil cup 500 can be hidden at the bottom of the range hood, thus maintaining the overall simplicity and aesthetics of the range hood.

[0076] For example, the support member 300 may be a glass plate or metal plate of the same material and color as the main body of the range hood, so as to improve the overall coordination and aesthetics of the range hood.

[0077] Specifically, the range hood provided in this application effectively solves the problems of the oil cup 500 being prone to loosening and falling off, as well as affecting aesthetics, in the prior art. The receiving portion 400 between the support member 300 and the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100 provides a stable space to place the oil cup 500, reducing problems caused by vibration or increased weight of the oil cup 500.

[0078] Furthermore, when the smoke inlet housing 100 rises and is stored inside the smoke collection box 800, the support 300 is flush with the bottom of the smoke collection box 800. The shielding effect of the support 300 can hide the oil cup 500 inside the range hood, improving the overall aesthetics of the range hood and achieving a good balance between functionality and aesthetic design.

[0079] In some embodiments, in the vertical direction, the orthographic projection of the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100 is located within the orthographic projection range of the support 300.

[0080] Understandably, in the upward direction, the support 300 can completely cover the oil cup 500 and the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100, which can provide a better visual concealment effect, making the whole structure more visually integrated, reducing the exposure of the bottom plate and oil cup 500, and improving the overall aesthetics of the range hood.

[0081] Furthermore, if the vertical projection range of the support member 300 is large enough, the support member 300 can effectively bear and support the oil cup 500 and its additional load, reducing the problem of the oil cup 500 falling off due to vibration or load changes.

[0082] With this design, the range hood not only meets the requirements of stability and safety in terms of function, but also maintains a high degree of simplicity and harmony in appearance.

[0083] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the connector 200 includes a first part 210 and a second part 220 connected to each other, with an included angle between the plane of the first part 210 and the plane of the second part 220; the first part 210 is connected to the smoke inlet housing 100, and the second part 220 is attached to and connected to the surface of the support member 300 facing the smoke inlet housing 100.

[0084] The connector 200 consists of two parts, and the two parts can have an included angle, so the connector 200 can transition between different planes, thereby achieving a stable connection between the support 300 and the smoke inlet housing 100.

[0085] The first part 210 of the connector 200 is connected to the smoke inlet housing 100, ensuring the stability and reliability of the connector 200. The first part 210 of the connector 200 can form a height difference between the smoke inlet housing 100 and the second part 220. After the second part 220 is connected to the support member 300, the smoke inlet housing 100 and the support member 300 can be spaced apart, providing a basis for the formation of the receiving part 400.

[0086] By attaching and connecting the second part 220 to the surface of the support 300, the contact area between the second part 220 and the support 300 is larger, which can improve the firmness and stability of the connection between the two and help reduce the connection instability problems that may be caused by vibration or load changes.

[0087] Specifically, the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100, the first part 210 of the connector 200, and the support member 300 can be configured to form a receiving portion 400. The bottom plate of the smoke housing can form the top wall of the receiving portion 400, the first part 210 of the connector 200 can form the rear side wall of the receiving portion 400, and the support member 300 can form the top wall of the receiving portion 400.

[0088] For example, the first portion 210 of the connector 200 can be arranged perpendicularly to the second portion 220. The first portion 210 is attached to the surface of the rear panel of the smoke inlet housing 100 and connected to the rear panel by a screw structure. The second portion 220 of the connector 200 can be directly bonded to the top surface of the support member 300.

[0089] The first part 210 and the second part 220 can be a separate structure, and the separate connector 200 is easy to process; the first part 210 and the second part 220 can also be an integral structure, and the integral connector 200 has higher strength and can improve the stability of the support 300.

[0090] Furthermore, the bottom of the smoke inlet housing 100 may also have downwardly extending protrusions at both ends along the width direction. The bottom of each protrusion may have a locking interface, and the top surface of the support member 300 may have locking claws. The locking claws are inserted into the locking interfaces and abut against the inner wall of the protrusions. This arrangement further improves the positional stability of the support member 300.

[0091] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in some instances, the receiving portion 400 has a front-facing opening 401 for the oil cup 500 to enter and exit the receiving portion 400.

[0092] By designing a special opening 401 for the entry and exit of the oil cup 500, the disassembly and installation process of the oil cup 500 is ensured to be free from interference from other structures, allowing users to easily disassemble the oil cup 500 without the need for professional tools or complicated operations.

[0093] Furthermore, with the opening 401 facing forward, users can easily remove and insert the oil cup 500 from the front of the range hood, which conforms to the usage habits of most users and improves the convenience and ease of operation.

[0094] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, an oil guide groove 110 is provided on the side of the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100 away from the support member 300. The oil guide groove 110 is used to collect oil droplets from inside the smoke inlet housing 100. An oil guide channel 111 is provided on the bottom surface of the oil guide groove 110, and the oil guide channel 111 connects the oil guide groove 110 and the receiving part 400.

[0095] By incorporating an oil guide groove 110 on the base plate, oil droplets can be collected and concentrated in a specific area. Concentrating the oil droplets within the guide groove 110 effectively controls the flow path of the grease, reducing its impact on other components. This design improves the cleanliness and ease of maintenance of the equipment.

[0096] By providing an oil guiding channel 111 at the bottom of the oil guiding groove 110, oil droplets can flow downwards naturally due to gravity, reducing the residence time of grease in the oil guiding groove 110 and thus reducing the retention and accumulation of grease inside the equipment. By connecting the oil guiding groove 110 and the receiving part 400 through the oil guiding channel 111, a continuous grease flow path is formed. Oil droplets collected inside the oil guiding groove 110 can enter the oil cup 500 located in the receiving part 400 through the oil guiding channel 111 for centralized processing.

[0097] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a plurality of oil cups 500 are also included, which are arranged sequentially and disposed within the receiving portion 400.

[0098] By sequentially setting up the oil cups 500, users can replace and clean each cup individually, instead of having to process all the grease at once. This design reduces the user's workload and provides greater efficiency in grease management.

[0099] Traditional oil cups (500) are typically designed as long and narrow to better collect oil droplets, making them unsuitable for most sink sizes and even dishwashers, and hindering cleaning. By using multiple oil cups (500) arranged sequentially, the length of each individual cup is reduced, allowing them to fit the dimensions of sinks and dishwashers, making cleaning easier, less troublesome, and more efficient.

[0100] The oil guide groove 110 and the oil guide channel 111 are correspondingly set with the oil cup 500 to ensure that each oil cup 500 can receive oil droplets from inside the range hood and avoid overloading of a single oil cup 500.

[0101] Since the second part 220 of the connector 200 is located on the top surface of the support 300 and the second part 220 has a certain thickness, when the oil cup 500 is placed on the support 300, it is placed on the second part 220, which increases the risk of tilting or falling.

[0102] Combination Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom of the oil cup 500 may be provided with a concave relief portion 530. When the oil cup 500 is located within the receiving portion 400, the second part 220 of the connector 200 is located at the relief portion 530 of the oil cup 500. This arrangement can ensure the stable placement of the oil cup 500 and reduce the risk of the oil cup 500 tilting and falling.

[0103] In some embodiments, the oil cup 500 is movably disposed within the receiving portion 400 and detachably connected to the connector 200.

[0104] By allowing the oil cup 500 to move within the receiving part 400, users can more easily position and adjust the oil cup 500, improving operational flexibility and making the installation and removal process of the oil cup 500 smoother.

[0105] By designing the oil cup 500 with a detachable connection, users can quickly remove and install it without tools or complicated operations. This design reduces the difficulty of cleaning and maintenance, improving user experience and equipment efficiency.

[0106] In some embodiments, the oil cup 500 is provided with an adsorption portion 510; when the oil cup 500 is located inside the receiving portion 400, the adsorption portion 510 can be adsorbed and connected to the connector 200; when at least a portion of the oil cup 500 is located outside the receiving portion 400, the adsorption portion 510 can be disengaged from the connector 200.

[0107] By providing an adsorption part 510 on the oil cup 500, the oil cup 500 can be firmly fixed to the connector 200 by magnetic attraction, reducing the reliance on mechanical fixing devices and improving the convenience of installation and disassembly.

[0108] Specifically, when the oil cup 500 is located inside the receiving part 400, the adsorption part 510 can automatically adsorb onto the connector 200, thereby providing a stable fixing effect. This design utilizes the automatic alignment characteristics of the adsorption force, simplifies the user's operation, and also ensures that the oil cup 500 can be firmly fixed inside the receiving part 400 in the normal use position, preventing it from shifting or falling off during operation.

[0109] When the oil cup 500 is pulled out of the receiving part 400, the suction part 510 can automatically detach from the connector 200. This design ensures that the disassembly process of the oil cup 500 is simple and quick, allowing users to easily remove the oil cup 500 from the receiving part 400 when needed, reducing the difficulty of operation for users.

[0110] For example, the adsorption part 510 can be a magnetic element, and the connector 200 can be a metal element. The magnetic element can be adsorbed onto the connector 200 to realize the connection between the oil cup 500 and the connector 200.

[0111] Furthermore, the adsorption part 510 can be disposed on the rear side wall of the oil cup 500, and the adsorption part 510 can be adsorbed and connected to the first part 210 of the connector 200.

[0112] In other embodiments, the adsorption part 510 may also be provided on the connector 200, and the adsorbed part is provided at the corresponding position of the oil cup 500. The connection between the oil cup 500 and the connector 200 is realized by the connection between the adsorption part 510 and the adsorbed part.

[0113] In some embodiments, an oil guide 600 is also included, which is disposed on the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100 and located between two adjacent oil cups 500.

[0114] By setting an oil guide 600 between two adjacent oil cups 500, oil droplets can be effectively guided into the oil cups 500, preventing grease from leaking between the two adjacent oil cups 500, thereby preventing grease from spreading or accumulating on the support 300.

[0115] Combination Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the oil guide 600 may be disposed on the underside of the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100. The oil guide 600 is provided with an oil guiding surface 601, the first end of the oil guiding surface 601 facing the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100, and the second end of the oil guiding surface 601 facing the oil cup 500.

[0116] The first end of the oil guiding surface 601 is positioned higher than the second end of the oil guiding surface 601. Therefore, oil droplets on the oil guiding surface 601 tend to flow towards the second end under the influence of gravity, thus flowing into the oil cup 500 and preventing leakage between adjacent oil cups 500.

[0117] For example, the oil guiding surface 601 can be an arc-shaped surface, with the top of the arc-shaped surface being the first end and the bottom of the arc-shaped surface being the second end.

[0118] Combination Figure 4 As shown, in some other embodiments, the oil guide 600 may also be disposed on the upper side of the bottom plate of the smoke inlet housing 100. The oil guide 600 is provided with a first oil guide surface 610 and a second oil guide surface 620, the first end of the first oil guide surface 610 and the first end of the second oil guide surface 620 are connected; the second end of the first oil guide surface 610 extends obliquely downward and is disposed above one of the two adjacent oil cups 500 bodies, and the second end of the second oil guide surface 620 extends obliquely downward and is disposed above the other of the two adjacent oil cups 500 bodies.

[0119] Understandably, by setting an oil guide 600 between two adjacent oil cups 500, oil droplets can be effectively guided into the oil cups 500, preventing grease from leaking between the two adjacent oil cups 500, thereby preventing grease from spreading or accumulating on the support 300.

[0120] Furthermore, the design of two oil guiding surfaces 601 allows the oil guiding component 600 to simultaneously guide oil droplets to two different oil cups 500, improving the uniformity and efficiency of grease collection and preventing overload of a single oil cup 500.

[0121] The first ends of the two oil guiding surfaces 601 are connected to form a concentration point, which allows the oil droplets to be effectively diverted to different oil cups 500 from this point.

[0122] The oil guiding surface 601 is inclined, allowing oil droplets to flow naturally to the oil cup 500 under gravity. This design reduces the possibility of grease remaining on the oil guiding component 600 and improves the efficiency of grease collection.

[0123] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the receiving portion 400 has an opening 401 facing forward, through which the oil cup 500 can enter and exit the receiving portion 400; a handle portion 520 is provided on the side of the oil cup 500 body facing the opening 401.

[0124] By designing a handhold 520 on the oil cup 500, users can grip the oil cup 500 more securely for operation, improving the safety and convenience of operation. In particular, when there is grease in the oil cup 500, the handhold 520 can effectively prevent slippage.

[0125] For example, there can be two hand-held parts 520, which are spaced apart to facilitate operation with both hands.

[0126] In summary, the range hood provided in this application embodiment, by providing a support member 300 below the smoke inlet housing 100, can form a dedicated receiving part 400 to hold the oil cup 500. This makes the oil cup 500 less susceptible to vibration or increased grease weight during operation, thereby reducing the risk of loosening and falling off. Furthermore, the support member 300 visually conceals the oil cup 500, hiding it at the bottom of the range hood, thus maintaining its overall simplicity and aesthetics. In addition, the design of multiple oil cups 500 allows each oil cup 500 to be adapted to the size of common sinks or even dishwashers, facilitating cleaning, reducing cleaning hassles, and improving cleaning efficiency.
