[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 A kitchen air conditioner main housing 100 is disclosed. The main housing 100 has an L-shaped structure and includes an upper part 1000 and a lower part 1001 connected to the lower left side of the upper part 1000. The upper part 1000 is located above a range hood 2, and the lower part 1001 is located to the left of the range hood 2. A flue 200 is connected to the upper right side of the range hood 2, and the right side of the upper part 1000 avoids the flue 200 connected to the upper end of the range hood 2. In this embodiment, the kitchen air conditioner main housing 100 does not require a recessed cavity to avoid the flue.

[0026] In another embodiment of the present invention, the lower part 1001 of the main housing of the kitchen air conditioner can also be connected to the lower right side of the upper part 1000 of the main housing of the kitchen air conditioner. The lower part 1001 of the main housing of the kitchen air conditioner is located on the right side of the range hood 2. The upper left side of the range hood 2 is connected to the flue 200. The left side of the upper part 1000 of the main housing of the kitchen air conditioner avoids the flue 200 at the upper end of the range hood 2.

[0027] Continue reading Figures 2-3 An air return vent 1002 is installed on the top of the main casing 100 of the kitchen air conditioner. The air return vent 1002 is connected to the space above the ceiling 4. A ceiling return vent 400 is installed on the ceiling 4. The ceiling return vent 400 is far away from the stove, which can avoid the kitchen air conditioner 1 from being directly exposed to air (direct air intake will draw in oil fumes). Example 2

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 A kitchen air conditioner includes a main housing 100 as described in Embodiment 1. A water-cooled condenser 101, a compressor 102, an evaporator 103, and a fan 104 are disposed in the main housing 100. The water-cooled condenser 101, the compressor 102, the evaporator 103, and the fan 104 are connected in a known manner. The water-cooled condenser 101 is connected to an external water source, which can reduce the weight of the kitchen air conditioner 1.

[0029] The compressor 102 is installed in the lower part 1001 of the main casing of the kitchen air conditioner, while the water-cooled condenser 101, evaporator 103 and fan 104 are installed in the upper part 1000 of the main casing of the kitchen air conditioner. Example 3

[0030] Please see Figures 1-4 A range hood system includes a range hood 2 and a kitchen air conditioner 1 as described in Embodiment 2. The kitchen air conditioner 1 has an L-shaped structure, with its upper part located at the upper end of the range hood 2 and its lower part located on the left side of the range hood 2. The upper right side of the range hood 2 is connected to the flue 200, and the upper right side of the kitchen air conditioner 1 avoids the flue 200 of the range hood 2.

[0031] Continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment also includes a front cover 3, which is located in front of the kitchen air conditioner 1 and the range hood 2 to cover the entire kitchen air conditioner 1 and the upper part of the range hood 2. A corresponding control panel is installed on the front cover 3, which is flush with the wall cabinet surface for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Removing the front cover 3 allows for the installation and maintenance of water and electricity for the kitchen air conditioner 1, as well as the installation and disassembly of the range hood 2. Example 4

[0032] Please see Figures 5-8 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the main housing 100 of the kitchen air conditioner in this embodiment is located entirely above the range hood 1. The left side of the range hood 2 is connected to the flue 200, and the flue 200 and the main housing 100 of the kitchen air conditioner will not interfere with each other. Therefore, the main housing 100 of the kitchen air conditioner in this embodiment does not need to be provided with a cavity to avoid the flue.

[0033] In another embodiment of this utility model, the range hood 2 can also be connected to the flue 200 on the right side, and such flue 200 will not interfere with the main housing 100 of the kitchen air conditioner. Example 5

[0034] Please see Figures 5-8 A kitchen air conditioner includes a main housing 100 as described in Embodiment 5. A water-cooled condenser 101, a compressor 102, an evaporator 103, and a fan 104 are disposed in the main housing 100. The water-cooled condenser 101, the compressor 102, the evaporator 103, and the fan 104 are connected in a known manner. The water-cooled condenser 101 is connected to an external water source, which can reduce the weight of the kitchen air conditioner 1. Example 6

[0035] Please see Figures 5-8 A range hood system includes a range hood 2 and a kitchen air conditioner 1 as described in Example 5, with the kitchen air conditioner 1 located entirely above the range hood 2. A flue 200 is connected to the left side of the range hood 2, and the flue 200 does not interfere with the kitchen air conditioner 1.

[0036] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6This embodiment also includes a front cover 3, which is located in front of the kitchen air conditioner 1 and the range hood 2 to cover the entire kitchen air conditioner 1 and the upper part of the range hood 2. A corresponding control panel is installed on the front cover 3, which is flush with the wall cabinet surface for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Removing the front cover 3 allows for the installation and maintenance of water and electricity for the kitchen air conditioner 1, as well as the installation and disassembly of the range hood 2.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
