The body (110) may be coupled with an exhaust grill (113) in which a number of exhaust holes (113a) are formed in the exhaust port (112) as shown in FIG. 3.

The suction fan (130) is positioned in front of the exhaust grill (113) and can be fixed to the exhaust grill (113).

The filter (120) filters out pollutants such as fine dust, cigarette odor, food odor, etc., and may include first, second, and third filters (121, 122, 123) as shown in FIG. 4.

The first filter (121) may be made of a mesh filter, etc., and the second filter (122) may be made of a vapor filter or a HEPA filter, etc.

The third filter (123) may be composed of a deodorizing filter, etc.

Since mesh filters, vapor filters, HEPA filters and deodorizing filters can be formed in a known general form, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The air purification hood (100) may further include a detachable part (140) for detachably fixing the filter (120) to the intake port (111).

The detachable portion (140) may include a detachable means (141) including a fixing ring (142) that is coupled to the inside of the suction port (111) and has a pulling handle (142a) that protrudes forward at the top, and a coupling ring (143) that protrudes rearward from the rear of the fixing ring (142) and to which a filter (120) is coupled.

The first, second, and third filters (121, 122, 123) can be sequentially received and combined with the coupling ring (143) and separated and combined with the body (110) according to the separation and combination of the detachment means (141).

Accordingly, the air purification hood (100) can be easily installed and replaced with a body (110) for the filter (120).

The coupling ring (143) may be composed of an inner ring (144) and an outer ring (145) positioned on the outside of the inner ring (144).

The outer ring (145) protrudes more rearwardly than the inner ring (144), and the body (110) may have a fixing projection (110a) formed on the inner surface thereof to stop the introduction when the outer ring (145) comes into contact with it.

The filter (120) may be combined with an inner ring (144). Alternatively, the first filter (121) may be combined with an inner ring (144), and the second and third filters (122, 123) may be combined with an outer ring (145).

The detachable portion (140) may further include a fastening means (146) that fastens the detachable means (141) to the body (110).

The bonding means (146) may be formed of magnets (147) provided at each location where the outer ring (145) and the body (110) come into contact, as shown in FIG. 4.

Accordingly, the detachable means (141) can be inserted into the suction port (111) and connected, and can be maintained in a state of being connected to the body (110) by the connecting means (146).

The air purification hood (100) may further include a collection unit (150) that collects vapor contained in the air.

The capturing unit (150) can capture vapors, etc. generated during food cooking, etc.

That is, the air purifying hood (100) can easily capture vapor generated during food cooking by moving freely through portability to the cooking location.

To this end, the inner ring (144) may be formed with a collecting hole (144a) that is curved on both sides while the lower part is open as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and the outer ring (145) may be formed with a collecting groove (145a) that protrudes downward on the lower part as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.

The second filter (122) may be formed as a vapor filter.

The oil vapor is filtered through the filter (120) and condenses through natural cooling by contact with air, etc., and can fall as oil. Hereinafter, the oil falling from the filter will be referred to as condensed oil.

Accordingly, the condensate falling from the filter (120) can pass through the collecting hole (144a) and flow into the collecting groove (145a).

The capturing unit (150) may include a capturing tube (151) that is fixed to an outer ring (145) so that the upper part communicates with the capturing groove (145a) as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, and through which condensate passes inwardly while passing through the lower part of the body (110), and a capturing container (152) that is positioned at the lower part of the capturing tube (151) and through which condensate is captured inwardly while the upper part is open.

Condensed oil can be captured by flowing into the collection tank (152) through the collection tube (151).

The air purifying hood (100) may further include a support member (160) that supports the body (110).

The support member (160) may include a support member (161) having an upper portion fixed to the lower portion of the body (110), an empty space formed inside to accommodate a collecting member (152), and an entrance (161a) formed at the rear to allow the collecting member (152) to enter and exit.

The support tube (161) can be connected to the body (110) so that the upper part is open and communicates with it, and can have a shape in which the diameter increases from the upper part to the lower part.

As shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 7, the support tube (161) may be formed with a guide tube (162) that is connected to the inside on the upper front side and receives a collection tube (151) on the inside.

As shown in Fig. 4, the body (110) may be formed with a hole (110b) through which a collection tube (151) passes while communicating with a guide tube (162) at the bottom.

The collecting tube (151) can be positioned inside the guide tube (162) with the lower part passing through the hole (110b) so that the condensate passing through the inside can proceed to the collecting tube (152).

As shown in Fig. 4, the body (110) may be formed on both sides of the inside with the hole (110b) as the center, and a pair of guide plates (114) that induce coupling of the collecting tube (151) to the hole (110b) may be formed.

A pair of guide plates (114) can induce the attachment of a collection tube (151) to a hole (110b) when the detachable means (141) is attached to the suction port (111).

When the detaching means (141) is separated from the body (110), the collecting tube (151) can be separated from the body (110) by pulling it forward while holding the pulling handle (142a) so that the collecting tube (151) is pulled out from the guide tube (162) and the hole (110b). Accordingly, the filter (120) can be separated and replaced.

Conversely, when the detachment means (141) is combined with the body (110), the collecting tube (151) can be drawn into the hole (110b) and the guide tube (162) while the pulling handle (142a) is held, and can be fixed by being attached to the body (110) by the fastening means (146). Accordingly, installation of the filter (120) can be performed.

The support tube (161) may be provided with an anti-slip pad (163) on the lower surface.

The anti-slip pad can be made of silicone or rubber, and a number of anti-slip protrusions (163a) can be formed on the lower surface.

Accordingly, the support tube (161) can support the body (110) while being installed on the installation target surface, including the surface of an indoor floor or a structure such as furniture.

The collection tube (152) can have a tube shape with an open top, and can be received into the inside of the support tube (161) through the entrance (161a) so that the rear side forms the rear side of the support tube (161).

The collection tube (152) may be provided with a grip handle (152a) on the rear side as shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. 7.

The collection tube (152) can be connected to or separated from the support tube (161) through the entrance (161a) while the grip handle (152a) is being gripped.

As shown in Fig. 2, the upper part of the body (110) can be made to protrude forward more than the lower part, thereby preventing the pull handle (142a) from protruding forward of the body (110).

An insertion hole into which a finger is inserted can be formed in the pull handle (142a).

The body (110) can be tilted so that the suction port (111) faces downward based on the horizontal state as shown in Fig. 7.

The support member (160) may further include a case (164) installed inside the support tube (161) as illustrated in FIG. 7.

The case (164) can accommodate a collecting tube (152) introduced through an inlet (161a) when the rear end is opened, and an inlet hole (164a) can be formed in the front part of the upper surface through which condensate is introduced.

The case (164) can block the upper part of the collecting tank (152) accommodated internally and allow the condensate to be introduced through the introduction hole (164a), while also allowing the air to flow smoothly due to the operation of the suction fan (130).

The support tube (161) may be equipped with a power supply unit for receiving power from an external source and a control unit for controlling the power supply unit or the suction fan (130).

For example, as shown in Fig. 3, the support tube (161) may be provided with a terminal (170) for receiving power from the outside on the lower rear side, and a power button (180) for driving the suction fan (130) may be provided on the upper rear side.

Due to this, the air purification hood (100) can be easily installed and replaced with a filter that filters out pollutants, while also capturing oil vapor generated during food cooking, etc.
