Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of range hood technology, and in particular relates to an easy-to-install range hood. Background Technology

[0002] When installing a range hood, it is hung on hooks on the wall. To ensure stability, two or more hooks are usually used. To ensure that all hooks are at the same height, a horizontal reference line is first drawn on the wall, then the installation positions of the hooks are marked. Next, the hooks are positioned, placed, and nailed in place one by one. This process has problems such as inconvenient positioning and low installation efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide an easy-to-install range hood with a novel structure, convenient bracket positioning, simple installation, and high operating efficiency.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An easy-to-install range hood includes: a range hood body and a suspension assembly; characterized in that: the suspension assembly includes a mounting plate and a bracket, the mounting plate is located on the back of the range hood body, the mounting plate and the bracket are engaged, and an auxiliary positioning plate is engaged between the brackets, the auxiliary positioning plate includes a middle plate and two movable plates, the movable plates are slidably connected to both sides of the middle plate, the back of the movable plates has symmetrically distributed fixing protrusions, and the bracket has positioning through holes corresponding to the fixing protrusions. This range hood has a novel structure, convenient bracket positioning, simple installation, and high operating efficiency.

[0006] Furthermore, the mounting bracket includes an L-shaped mounting base, an L-shaped hanging block, an end bolt, and an upper limit nut. The L-shaped hanging block slides vertically onto the L-shaped mounting base. The end bolt passes through the L-shaped mounting base from top to bottom and is threadedly connected to the L-shaped hanging block. The upper limit nut is connected to the end bolt and is located above the L-shaped mounting base. The L-shaped hanging block has hooks tilted upwards, and the mounting plate has corresponding hanging holes for the hooks. A positioning through hole is located on the L-shaped mounting base. Rotating the end bolt up or down changes the height of the L-shaped hanging block, thereby changing the height of the hooks to reduce the gap between the top of the range hood body and the bottom of the top cabinet, preventing excessive grease buildup and difficulty in cleaning. After determining the height, rotating the upper limit nut makes it fit against the horizontal section of the L-shaped mounting base, restricting the end bolt from sliding down freely. The operation is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0007] Furthermore, a lower limit nut is connected to the end bolt. The lower limit nut is located between the L-shaped bracket and the L-shaped block. The lower limit nut, together with the upper limit nut, clamps the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket, preventing the end bolt from moving upward and improving the stability of the end bolt, thereby improving the stability of the L-shaped block.

[0008] Furthermore, the L-shaped bracket is provided with an clearance opening for the L-shaped block to slide up and down. The clearance opening is provided with a limiting stop edge, which is used to restrict the free rotation of the vertical section of the L-shaped block, so as to realize the L-shaped block to slide up and down. This replaces the structure of the sliding groove and the slider, which is compact and ingeniously designed.

[0009] Furthermore, a bubble level is installed on the middle plate. Installers can use the bubble level to observe the levelness of the auxiliary positioning plate, thus ensuring that the brackets on both sides are at the same height, replacing manual measurement and improving installation efficiency.

[0010] Furthermore, the middle plate is equipped with L-shaped flanges, which are symmetrically distributed vertically. A sliding groove is formed between the L-shaped flanges and the middle plate to facilitate the left-right sliding of the movable plate. The middle plate and the movable plate are detachable, allowing for convenient and flexible installation. The L-shaped flanges limit the vertical swaying of the movable plate, ensuring the alignment of the brackets on both sides and improving the installation quality of the brackets.

[0011] Furthermore, the horizontal section of the L-shaped hanging block is equipped with an extension sleeve, which is threadedly connected to the end bolt. The extension sleeve increases the contact area between the L-shaped hanging block and the end bolt, thereby improving the connection strength between the two and making the L-shaped hanging block less prone to loosening.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting plate is connected and fixed to the back panel of the range hood body with screws, ensuring reliable fixation, easy assembly and disassembly, and convenient use.

[0013] This utility model, by adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] During installation, the L-shaped bracket is positioned on the movable plate by fitting the positioning through-hole onto the fixed protrusion. The movable plate can slide left and right to match the gap between the two L-shaped brackets with the gap between the two mounting plates, thus adapting to range hoods of different sizes and offering strong adaptability. Then, the auxiliary positioning plate is placed in alignment with the installation reference line on the wall. The movable plate presses the L-shaped bracket against the wall, preventing the bracket from moving freely. The two brackets remain aligned without being misaligned vertically. There is no need to manually measure and mark the installation position of each bracket, reducing the difficulty of operation and positioning, and improving installation efficiency. After fixing the bracket to the wall, the auxiliary positioning plate is removed. The auxiliary positioning plate can be reused, improving resource utilization.

[0015] Rotating the end bolt up and down changes the height of the L-shaped hanging block, which in turn changes the height of the hook, reducing the gap between the top of the range hood and the bottom of the cabinet. This prevents the gap from becoming too large and accumulating grease that is difficult to clean. After determining the height, rotate the upper limit nut downwards to make it fit against the horizontal section of the L-shaped mounting bracket, restricting the end bolt from sliding down freely. The operation is simple and the adjustment is convenient. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides an easy-to-install range hood, comprising: a range hood body 1 and a suspension assembly. The suspension assembly includes two mounting plates 2 and two brackets 3. The mounting plates 2 are connected and fixed to the back plate of the range hood body 1 by screws, which is reliable, easy to install and disassemble, and flexible and convenient to use.

[0025] The bracket 3 includes an L-shaped bracket 4, an L-shaped hanging block 5, an end bolt 6, and an upper limit nut 7. The vertical section of the L-shaped bracket 4 is provided with a fixing through hole 8 for the expansion screw to pass through, so as to fix the L-shaped bracket 4 to the wall. The L-shaped hanging block 5 is slidably connected to the L-shaped bracket 4. The end bolt 6 passes through the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 4 from top to bottom and is threadedly connected to the horizontal section of the L-shaped hanging block 5. The upper limit nut 7 is connected to the end bolt 6 and is located above the L-shaped bracket 4. The L-shaped hanging block 5 is inclined upward with a hook 9. The mounting plate 2 is provided with a hanging hole 10 corresponding to the hook 9. The hanging hole 10 is located above the range hood body 1.

[0026] The range hood body 1 is suspended by hanging the hook 9 through the hanging hole 10. The hanging hole 10 is clearly visible to the installer, making it easy to hang successfully on the first try. Rotating the end bolt 6 up and down can change the height position of the L-shaped hanging block 5, and thus change the height position of the hook 9, to reduce the gap between the top of the range hood body 1 and the bottom of the top cabinet, preventing the gap from being too large and accumulating grease that is difficult to clean. After determining the height position, rotate the upper limit nut 7 downwards so that it fits against the horizontal section of the L-shaped mounting bracket 4, restricting the end bolt 6 from sliding down freely. The operation is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0027] The vertical section of the L-shaped hanger 4 is provided with an clearance opening 11 for the L-shaped hanging block 5 to slide up and down. The clearance opening 11 is provided with a limiting stop 12, which is used to restrict the free rotation of the vertical section of the L-shaped hanging block 5, so as to realize the up and down sliding of the L-shaped hanging block 5. This replaces the structure of the sliding groove and the slider, which is compact and ingeniously designed.

[0028] An extension sleeve 13 is provided on the horizontal section of the L-shaped hanging block 5, and the extension sleeve 13 is threadedly connected to the end bolt 6. The extension sleeve 13 increases the contact area between the L-shaped hanging block 5 and the end bolt 6, thereby improving the connection strength between the two and making the L-shaped hanging block 5 less prone to loosening.

[0029] A lower limit nut 14 is connected to the end bolt 6. The lower limit nut 14 is located between the L-shaped bracket 4 and the L-shaped hanging block 5. When the lower limit nut 14 is rotated upward, it is made to stick to the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 4. The lower limit nut 14, together with the upper limit nut 7, clamps the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 4, preventing the end bolt 6 from moving upward, thus improving the stability of the end bolt 6 and consequently improving the stability of the L-shaped hanging block 5.

[0030] An auxiliary positioning plate 15 is snapped between the brackets 3. The auxiliary positioning plate 15 includes a middle plate 16 and two movable plates 17. The movable plates 17 are slidably connected to both sides of the middle plate 16. Fixed protrusions 18 are symmetrically distributed on the back of the movable plates 17. The vertical section of the L-shaped bracket 4 is provided with positioning through holes 19 corresponding to the fixed protrusions 18. The thickness of the vertical section of the L-shaped bracket 4 is the same as the thickness of the middle plate 16.

[0031] During installation, the L-shaped bracket 4 is positioned on the movable plate 17 by fitting the fixing protrusion 18 through the positioning through hole 19. The movable plate 17 can slide left and right to match the gap between the two L-shaped brackets 4 with the gap between the two mounting plates 2, thus adapting to range hood bodies 1 of different sizes and providing strong adaptability. Then, the auxiliary positioning plate 15 is placed in alignment with the installation reference line on the wall. The movable plate 17 presses the L-shaped bracket 4 against the wall, preventing the bracket 3 from moving freely. The two brackets 3 remain aligned without being misaligned. There is no need to manually measure and mark the installation position of each bracket 3, reducing the difficulty of operation and positioning, and improving installation efficiency. Then, the bracket 3 is fixed to the wall, and the auxiliary positioning plate 15 is removed. The auxiliary positioning plate 15 can be reused, improving resource utilization.

[0032] The intermediate plate 16 is provided with an L-shaped flange 20, which is symmetrically distributed vertically. A groove 21 is formed between the L-shaped flange 20 and the intermediate plate 16 to facilitate the left-right sliding of the movable plate 17. The intermediate plate 16 and the movable plate 17 are detachable, allowing for convenient and flexible assembly. The movable plate 17 is inserted into the groove 21, making assembly simple. The L-shaped flange 20 can limit the vertical swaying of the movable plate 17, keeping the two side brackets 3 aligned and improving the installation quality of the brackets 3.

[0033] A bubble level 22 is installed on the middle plate 16, which is fixed firmly or reliably by screws or adhesive. Installers can use the bubble level 22 to observe the levelness of the auxiliary positioning plate 15, thereby ensuring that the brackets 3 on both sides are at the same height, replacing manual measurement and improving installation efficiency.
