Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate mounting/demounting work of a filter and improve safety of the work by proving an access hole for the filter in a lower part of a front surface of a range hood body through to mount and demount the filter through the access hole. SOLUTION: Once a suction fan 10 is first started, smoke from a range is introduced through a smoke collection hole 8 and is guided by a straightening guide 12 and is sucked in the suction fan 10 after passage through a filter 9 and is exhausted to the outside through a smoke exhaust hole. The filter 9 used over a long time and soiled with stains can be taken out from an access hole 11 in a lower part of a front surface of the range hood body 7 by holding a knob T upon it and taking it out to the outside for cleaning. Thus, since mounting and demounting of the filter 9 can be achieved with a natural posture, work is facilitated and workability is improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a range hood device having a filter in which a filter in a range hood body can be easily removed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 6, a conventional range hood device 1 is provided with a smoke collection port 3 at a lower portion of a range hood body 2 in which a filter, a suction fan and a smoke exhaust port (not shown) are sequentially arranged upward. A filter 4 communicating with the suction fan is attached to the upper part of the smoke collection port 3, and the filter 4 is fixed at at least two places by set screws 5.

[0003]

The filter of the range hood device constructed as described above is taken out after removing the set screw 5 for cleaning.

[0004] Since this removal work is performed from the lower part of the smoke inlet 3, the work posture becomes unnatural and poses a problem in safety, resulting in a problem that the workability is reduced.

When the filter 4 has been used for a long period of time, oil adheres to the surface and a thick oil film is formed. Has a problem that reduces motivation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a range hood device having a filter which can easily perform the work of attaching and removing the filter and can improve the safety of the work. Aim.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the embodiments and the drawings.

First, an embodiment of a filter of a range hood device according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 is a side view of a range hood device showing a first embodiment of a filter of the range hood device, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the range hood device.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 6 denotes a range hood device.
And a smoke collection port 8 provided at a lower end of the range hood body.
The filter 9, a rectifying guide 12 for guiding smoke passing through the filter 9 to a suction fan, a suction fan 10, and a smoke outlet (not shown) are sequentially arranged above the inside of the range hood body 7. Has been established.

An inlet / outlet 11 for a filter 9 is provided at a lower portion of the front surface of the range hood main body 7.
The filter 9 is a rectangular plate that is disposed directly below the suction fan 10 and has a handle T on the front surface. The filter 9 can be taken in and out with the handle T from the entrance 11.

Next, FIG. 3 is a side view of a range hood device showing a second embodiment of the filter of the range hood device, and FIG. 4 shows a state in which the filter is drawn forward from a filter port of the range hood body. It is a perspective view.

The same components as those of the above-described range hood device are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description is omitted.

The range hood device 13 of the present embodiment has a filter opening 15
The filter inlet / outlet 15 has a smoke absorbing grill 1
6 is provided so as to be able to swing with the upper end as a fulcrum.

A filter 17 having a front end bent upward and formed in an L-shape is provided inside the smoke-absorbing grill 16.

Therefore, when pulling out the filter 17 forward, as shown in FIG. 4, the smoke suction grill 16 is swung forward to open the filter entrance 15.

Next, FIG. 5 is a side view of a range hood device showing a third embodiment of a filter of the range hood device.

In the range hood device 17 of the present embodiment, a smoke absorbing grille 19 is fixedly attached to a lower portion of the front surface of a range hood main body 18, and the smoke absorbing grille 1 of the range hood main body 18 is provided.
An access port 20 for the filter 9 is provided at the top of the filter 9, and the filter 9 can be inserted and removed through the access port 20.

Here, the filter 9 has the same structure as the filter 9 of the first embodiment described above, and has a handle T on the front surface. The filter 9 can be taken in and out with the handle T from the entrance 20. It has become.

The function of the filter of the range hood device configured as described above will be described below.

First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the suction fan 10 is activated, smoke from the range passes through the filter 9 when introduced through the smoke inlet 8, and then flows into the rectifying guide 12. And the air is sucked by the suction fan 10 and discharged to the outside from a smoke outlet (not shown).

When the filter 9 according to the first embodiment, which has been used for a long time and is contaminated, is taken out for cleaning,
The handle T can be grasped and pulled out from the entrance 11 at the lower front of the range hood main body 7.

For this reason, since the filter 9 can be mounted and removed in a natural posture, the work is facilitated and the workability can be improved.

Next, in the second embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, most of the smoke from the range or the like is introduced through the smoke inlet 8 and filtered when passing through the filter 17. After the suction fan 10
At the same time, the smoke is sucked from the smoke absorption grill 16 in front of the range hood main body 14, and the smoke passing through the smoke absorption grill 16 is also sucked from the bent portion in front of the L-shaped filter 17.

Therefore, when the filter 17 of such a type is pulled out to the front, the smoke inlet grill 16 is swung forward to open the filter entrance 15.

As a result, the filter port 15 is largely opened, and an L-shaped filter 17 is formed by bending the front of the filter port 15 vertically. With such a structure, both the filter of the smoke collecting port 8 and the filter of the smoke absorbing grill 16 can be removed at the same time.

Next, in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 5, when smoke from a range or the like is introduced through the smoke inlet 8 as in the second embodiment, it is filtered when passing through the filter 9. After
The air is sucked by the suction fan 10 while being guided by the rectifying guide 12, and at the same time, the smoke absorption grill 19 in front of the range hood body 18.
It is also sucked from, but in the case of this embodiment,
Since the filter 9 having the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is provided in a plane above the smoke absorbing grille 19 of the range hood main body 18, the smoke sucked from the smoke collecting port 8 and the smoke absorbing grille 19 becomes a plate. Is sucked through the filter 9 having a simple shape.

Therefore, the filter according to the present embodiment can be installed and removed through the access port 20 without opening and closing the smoke absorbing grille 19 as in the second embodiment. Therefore, safety of work can be improved.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and even if there are changes and additions without departing from the gist of the present invention. Included in the invention.
