DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a range hood, and more particularly to an assembling structure thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a range hood for exhausting smoke, steam and the like to the outside of a room is disposed above a gas stove or the like.

Conventionally, this range hood has been formed by press-molding a flat plate of stainless steel or the like using a mold to form each member, and assembling these members by welding or the like.

[0004]

However, as described above, in the case where the components of the range hood are obtained by press molding, the shape of the components is slightly changed by changing the design or the like in order to meet the demands of the users and the like. If you want to change the material or change the material, you have to re-create the press molding die from the beginning each time, which increases the capital investment and increases the cost of the product. There is.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. Even if it is desired to change the shape slightly due to a design change or the like or to change the material, it is necessary to re-create all the dies from the beginning. It is an object of the present invention to be able to respond relatively flexibly without the need.

[0006]

The present invention employs the following structure to solve the above-mentioned problems.

That is, the range hood according to the present invention comprises:
A hood portion for sucking smoke or the like is arranged on the front side of the main body portion in which the ventilation fan is housed, and the hood portion includes a frame, a decorative plate, and an oil pan, and the frame is provided on the main body side. A guide member for forming a hood is fixed to an attachment frame for attachment to the hood, and the decorative plate is provided with a bent portion by bending left and right ends thereof, and the bent portion is fitted to the attachment frame. While being worn, a central portion located between the left and right bent portions is curved along the guide member, and the oil receiver is attached to a lower portion of the decorative plate.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a side view of a system kitchen provided with a range hood according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the range hood, and FIG. 3 is a rear view of the range hood.

In the range hood 1 of this embodiment, a hood portion 4 is arranged on the front side of a main body portion 3 in which a ventilation fan 2 is housed, and cooking is performed using a gas range 6 on a cooking table 5. The smoke and steam generated when performing
After being sucked in, the air is exhausted to the outside by the ventilation fan 2 of the main body portion 3 passing therethrough.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the hood portion 4 is made of stainless steel in consideration of aesthetic appearance and corrosion resistance, and includes a frame 8, a decorative plate 10, and an oil receiver 1
Consists of two. The frame 4 has a pair of left and right attachment frames 14 for attachment to the main body 3 and a guide member 16 for forming a hood.

Each mounting frame 14 includes a flat plate portion 14a for fixing the guide member 16 and a leg portion 14b extending downward from the flat plate portion 14a. The lower portion of the flat plate portion 14a is provided on the main body 3. A cut-out portion 14c with which the hook 18 is engaged and an insertion hole 14d for the fixing bracket 20 provided in the main body 3 are formed, and a leg 14b has a hole for engaging the pin 22 provided in the main body 3. 14e is provided.

The guide member 16 has a U-shaped cross section composed of a pair of upper and lower horizontal plate portions 16a in a crescent shape and a vertical plate portion 16b perpendicular to the horizontal plate portion 16a.
Is fixed to the flat plate portion 14a using rivets or the like.

The decorative plate 10 is formed by punching a thin flat plate or the like, and its central portion 10a is curved by a guide member 16, and its left and right ends are bent inward to form a bent portion. In the lower portion, mounting pieces 10c of the oil receiver 12 are provided at a plurality of locations at predetermined intervals, and these mounting pieces 10c are folded toward the frame 8 side.

Each of the left and right bent portions 10b is attached to the mounting frame 1.
4 and fixed by spot welding, etc.
The central portion 10a is curved along the periphery of the horizontal plate portion 16a of the guide member 16.

The oil receiver 12 has an overall shape of the frame 8.
It is press-formed so as to have a substantially arc shape along the lower edge shape of the decorative board 10 after being attached to the decorative board 10, and front and rear edges are bent upward to form a groove 12a therebetween.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the lower mounting piece 10c of the decorative plate 10 is inserted into the groove 12a of the oil receiver 12 and fixed by spot welding or the like. Is abutted against the bent portion 10b of the decorative plate 10 to prevent the oil from dripping.

The production of the range hood 1 is performed in the following procedure.

The rear surfaces of the vertical plate portions 16b of the guide member 16 are fixed to the flat plate portions 14a of the pair of right and left mounting frames 14 arranged at a predetermined distance by using rivets or the like.
Are integrated to form the frame 8.

On the other hand, the decorative board 10 is formed in advance into a shape as shown in FIG. 6 by punching a thin flat plate or the like, and the left and right ends thereof are respectively positioned at positions indicated by two-dot chain lines in the figure. The bent portion 10a is formed by bending, and the mounting piece 10b is folded inward.

Then, with the decorative plate 10 being curved, the left and right bent portions 10a are fitted into the left and right ends of the mounting frame 14.
Then, the central portion 10a of the decorative plate 10 abuts and curves along the periphery of the horizontal plate portion 16a of the guide member 16, and in this state, the bent portion 10a of the decorative plate 10 and the mounting frame 14 are spot-welded. And are fixed together.

Thereafter, the mounting piece 10b of the decorative board 10 is inserted into the groove 12a of the oil receiver 12, and the two pieces 12a and 10b are fixed by spot welding or the like.

Finally, the gaps between the parts are sealed with a silicone resin or the like.

The hood 4 manufactured in this manner is connected to the main body 2.
In order to attach the notch 1 to the notch 1 of the attachment frame 14 of the frame 8
After engaging the hook 4c with the hook 18 provided on the main body 3 and temporarily fixing the same, the pin 22 provided on the main body 3 is inserted into the engaging hole 14e of the mounting frame 14, and the side of the main body 2 is inserted. The fixture is inserted into the insertion hole 14d, and the two 3 and 4 are integrally fixed.

[0024]

According to the range hood of the present invention, when it is desired to slightly change the shape due to a design change or the like, or to change the material, if the shape of the frame is changed, the decorative plate follows the shape. Is also changed, so that a mold for molding the central portion of the decorative board is not required, large-scale mold investment is not required, and it is possible to relatively flexibly cope with a user's request. For this reason, there is no extra cost.
