Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a range hood with lighting, and more specifically, to a range hood equipped with a lighting device for illuminating the lower part of a box body to which a fan is attached. The objective is to provide an illuminated range hood that allows easy replacement of lighting equipment and cleaning of the fan.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. The range hood with lighting according to the present invention includes a box body 2 that is open at the front and bottom surfaces, a fan 1 is attached to the remaining surface, and is fixed above the ceiling or wall surface, and the box body 2
A cover 3 that closes the front opening of the box 2 is provided, and a lighting fixture 4 that illuminates the lower part of the box 2 is provided inside the cover 3.
In the illuminated range hood, in which a cover 3 is removably attached to a box body 2, a filter 5 is disposed in the lower part of the box body 2 on a flow path from the bottom surface of the box body 2 to the fan 1. The lower surface of the filter 5 forms a reflective surface that reflects a portion of the light emitted from the lighting device 4 downward. Box body 2
As shown in FIG. 1, the box body 2 has openings on the front and bottom surfaces, and a fan 1 is attached to the rear surface of the box body 2, as shown in FIG. The box body 2 is arranged on the ceiling or the upper part of the wall surface. The left and right edges of the front opening of the box body 2 form flanges 6, and a hook hole 7 is formed at the upper edge of the front opening. That is, the front opening of the box body 2 is closed by the cover 3, and the cover 3 hooks a hook piece 8 extending from the upper edge of the cover 3 into a hook hole 7 on the upper edge of the box body 2. At the same time, the cover 3 is removably attached to the front surface of the box body 2 by screwing screws 10 into the cover 3 through screw holes 9 provided at the lower end of the flange 6. However, a lighting fixture 4 is disposed inside the cover 3. The lighting equipment 4 may be one that uses an incandescent light bulb as is, as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, an illumination tube may be provided to create a spotlight. A switch box 11 is provided on the front surface of the cover 3, and is used to turn on and off the lighting fixture 4 and to stop the fan 1 from operating. The lower surface of the cover 3 is open, and a copper net 12 is attached to the lower surface so as to cover the entire surface of the opening, and diffuses the illumination light.
It is designed to radiate heat rays from the lighting equipment 4. Further, a heat radiation hole 13 is provided in the upper part of the cover 3 so that heat from the lighting fixture 4 is released to the outside of the box body 2. On the other hand, inside the box body 2, a filter 5 made of a metal that easily reflects light, such as aluminum or stainless steel, is arranged diagonally, and the light from the lighting fixture 4 is reflected by the filter 5. The light is projected below the box body 2. Therefore, the diffused reflection on the surface of the filter 5 causes the light to be appropriately scattered and hidden, and the lower part of the box body 2 is brightly illuminated by the light, increasing the efficiency of illumination. Furthermore, since the filter 5 is made of metal such as aluminum or stainless steel, it is easy to clean the filter 5. Of course, the filter 5 is detachably attached to the inside of the box 2.

As mentioned above, the present invention consists of a box that opens on the front and bottom sides, and a cover that closes the front opening of the box.The lighting equipment is housed within the cover, and the cover is detachable from the box. Therefore, the cover can be removed when changing the lighting equipment or cleaning the fan, which has the advantage of making these operations easier. In addition, a filter is disposed at the bottom of the box on a flow path from the bottom surface of the box to the fan, and the bottom surface of the filter forms a reflective surface that reflects downward a portion of the light emitted from the lighting equipment. Therefore, a part of the light emitted from the lighting equipment is moderately scattered due to diffuse reflection on the reflective surface of the filter surface and becomes soft light, and in addition to the direct light from the lighting equipment, it is also reflected on the reflective surface of the filter. Since reflected light is used, the illumination efficiency is higher than that which simply uses direct light, and the lower part of the box body is brightly illuminated.
