Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Dunstabzugshaube.The present invention relates to an extractor hood.

Dunstabzugshauben werden zur Absaugung des sogenannten Wrasens Ć¼ber einem HaushaltsgerƤt wie beispielsweise einem KĆ¼chenherd eingesetzt. In einer derartigen Dunstabzugshaube werden zur Abscheidung von Fett aus dem Wrasen Fettfilter verwendet. Als Fettfilter kommen beispielsweise sogenannte Labyrinthfilter oder Streckmetallfilter zum Einsatz. Diese Filtervarianten filtern den Wrasen hauptsƤchlich durch TrƤgheitsabscheidung.Extractor hoods are used to extract the so-called Wrasens on a household appliance such as a kitchen stove. In such a hood fat filters are used for the separation of fat from the vapors. For example, so-called labyrinth filters or expanded metal filters are used as the grease filter. These filter variants filter the vapor mainly by inertial separation.

Zur Erhƶhung der Fettfiltereffizienz einer Dunstabzugshaube kƶnnen mehrere Fettfilter kaskadenartig hintereinander angeordnet werden. Hierbei kann eine erste Filterstufe durch einen unmittelbar in einem Wrasenschirm der Dunstabzugshaube angeordneten Fettfilter verwirklicht sein. Ein in einem LĆ¼fterkasten der Dunstabzugshaube vorgesehener weiterer Fettfilter bildet eine zweite Filterstufe. Dabei ist es erforderlich, dass sowohl der unmittelbar im Wrasenschirm angeordnete Fettfilter als auch der im LĆ¼fterkasten montierte Fettfilter zu Reinigungs- und Instandhaltungszwecken schnell und komfortabel ausgetauscht werden kann.To increase the grease filter efficiency of a cooker hood, a plurality of grease filters can be arranged in cascade fashion one behind the other. In this case, a first filter stage can be realized by a fat filter arranged directly in a vapor shield of the extractor hood. A further grease filter provided in a fan box of the extractor hood forms a second filter stage. It is necessary that both the directly arranged in the vapor shield grease filter and the grease filter mounted in the fan box for cleaning and maintenance purposes can be replaced quickly and easily.

Die DE 10 2009 028 808 A1 beschreibt eine Dunstabzugshaube, die einen LĆ¼fterkasten, einen Innenrahmen und mindestens ein Filterelement umfasst. Der Innenrahmen ist mit dem LĆ¼fterkasten verbunden und an dem Innenrahmen ist mindestens ein Befestigungsbereich fĆ¼r das Filterelement vorgesehen.The DE 10 2009 028 808 A1 describes an extractor hood comprising a fan box, an inner frame and at least one filter element. The inner frame is connected to the fan box and on the inner frame at least one mounting area for the filter element is provided.

Vor diesem Hintergrund besteht eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung darin, eine verbesserte Dunstabzugshaube zu schaffen.Against this background, an object of the present invention is to provide an improved extractor hood.

Daher wird eine Dunstabzugshaube mit einem LĆ¼fterkasten, einer in dem LĆ¼fterkasten lƶsbar befestigten Filtereinrichtung, einer Verriegelungseinrichtung zum Verriegeln oder Entriegeln der Filtereinrichtung in dem LĆ¼fterkasten und einer BetƤtigungseinrichtung zum BetƤtigen der Verriegelungseinrichtung vorgeschlagen. Die Verriegelungseinrichtung ist mittels der BetƤtigungseinrichtung relativ zu der Filtereinrichtung fĆ¼r das Verriegeln oder Entriegeln verlagerbar. Die Dunstabzugshaube umfasst einen ersten FiltertrƤger, der an einer ersten Innenwand des LĆ¼fterkastens montiert ist, und einen zweiten FiltertrƤger, der an einer der ersten Innenwand gegenĆ¼berliegenden zweiten Innenwand des LĆ¼fterkastens montiert ist. Die Filtereinrichtung liegt auf den FiltertrƤgern auf. Die Verriegelungseinrichtung greift lƶsbar in einen ersten Aufnahmeabschnitt des ersten FiltertrƤgers ein. Ein Befestigungsabschnitt der Filtereinrichtung greift in einen zweiten Aufnahmeabschnitt des zweiten FiltertrƤgers ein. Der erste FiltertrƤger weist zumindest einen Schnapphaken auf, der formschlĆ¼ssig in zumindest eine an einem LĆ¼ftertrƤger der Dunstabzugshaube vorgesehene Ausnehmung eingreift.Therefore, an extractor hood with a fan box, a releasably secured in the fan box filter device, a locking device for locking or unlocking the filter device in the fan box and an actuator for actuating the locking device is proposed. The locking device is displaceable by means of the actuating device relative to the filter device for locking or unlocking. The extractor hood includes a first filter support mounted to a first inner wall of the fan box and a second filter support mounted to a second inner wall of the fan box opposite the first inner wall. The filter device rests on the filter carriers. The locking device removably engages in a first receiving portion of the first filter carrier. An attachment portion of the filter device engages in a second receiving portion of the second filter carrier. The first filter carrier has at least one snap hook, which engages positively in at least one recess provided on a fan carrier of the extractor hood.

Die Verriegelungseinrichtung kann zumindest einen verschiebbaren Riegel aufweisen, welcher von einem verriegelten Zustand zu einem entriegelten Zustand verlagerbar ist. Die Filtereinrichtung weist bevorzugt ein Filterelement und einen das Filterelement umgebenden Rahmen auf. Die Filtereinrichtung kann rechteckfƶrmig sein und eine plattenfƶrmige Geometrie aufweisen. Das Filterelement kann ein Labyrinthfilter oder ein Streckmetallfilter sein. In dem entriegelten Zustand ist der zumindest eine Riegel bevorzugt in den Rahmen der Filtereinrichtung zurĆ¼ckgezogen. In dem verriegelten Zustand erstreckt er sich aus diesem bevorzugt hinaus. Der zumindest eine verschiebbare Riegel kann mit der BetƤtigungseinrichtung wirkverbunden sein. Vorzugsweise weist die Verriegelungseinrichtung zwei Riegel auf, die beabstandet voneinander angeordnet sind. Dadurch, dass die Verriegelungseinrichtung verlagerbar ist, kann die Filtereinrichtung schnell und komfortabel durch BetƤtigen der BetƤtigungseinrichtung aus dem LĆ¼fterkasten entfernt und wieder in diesen eingesetzt werden.
Die Dunstabzugshaube umfasst einen ersten FiltertrƤger, der an einer ersten Innenwand des LĆ¼fterkastens montiert ist, und einen zweiten FiltertrƤger, der an einer der ersten Innenwand gegenĆ¼berliegenden zweiten Innenwand des LĆ¼fterkastens montiert ist, auf. Die Filtereinrichtung liegt auf den FiltertrƤgern auf. Die Verriegelungseinrichtung greift lƶsbar in einen ersten Aufnahmeabschnitt des ersten FiltertrƤgers ein. Ein Befestigungsabschnitt der Filtereinrichtung greift in einen zweiten Aufnahmeabschnitt des zweiten FiltertrƤgers ein.
Der LĆ¼fterkasten weist vorzugsweise eine Quaderform mit vier SeitenwƤnden auf. Die SeitenwƤnde kƶnnen als Blechbauteile ausgefĆ¼hrt sein und bilden vier InnenwƤnde des LĆ¼fterkastens. Die erste Innenwand und die zweite Innenwand liegen einander bevorzugt beabstandet gegenĆ¼ber. Der erste FiltertrƤger kann sich entlang der ersten Innenwand erstrecken und mit dieser verbunden sein. Der zweite FiltertrƤger kann sich entlang der zweiten Innenwand erstrecken und mit dieser verbunden sein. Der erste FiltertrƤger weist bevorzugt den ersten Aufnahmeabschnitt auf. Der erste Aufnahmeabschnitt weist vorzugsweise zwei in dem ersten FiltertrƤger vorgesehene Ausnehmungen auf. Der Befestigungsabschnitt der Filtereinrichtung ist vorzugsweise als zumindest eine sich aus einem Rahmen der Filtereinrichtung heraus erstreckende Lasche ausgebildet. Der Befestigungsabschnitt ist vorzugsweise feststehend, d.h. nicht verlagerbar bezĆ¼glich der Filtereinrichtung. Vorzugsweise weist der Befestigungsabschnitt zwei derartige Laschen auf, die voneinander beabstandet angeordnet sind. Dadurch, dass die Filtereinrichtung auf den FiltertrƤgern aufliegt, wird diese beim Betrieb der Dunstabzugshaube durch den Luftstrom gegen die FiltertrƤger gedrĆ¼ckt und so gegenĆ¼ber diesen abgedichtet. Da der erste FiltertrƤger bzw. der zweite FiltertrƤger an der ersten Innenwand bzw. der zweiten Innenwand anliegen, ist zwischen den FiltertrƤgern und der entsprechenden Innenwand kein Luftspalt vorhanden. Dadurch ist eine Abdichtung der FiltertrƤger gegenĆ¼ber den InnenwƤnden gewƤhrleistet. Eine Fehlluftstrƶmung an der Filtereinrichtung vorbei wird so zuverlƤssig verhindert. Dies erhƶht die Effizienz der Dunstabzugshaube.The locking device may comprise at least one displaceable latch, which is displaceable from a locked state to an unlocked state. The filter device preferably has a filter element and a frame surrounding the filter element. The filter device may be rectangular and have a plate-shaped geometry. The filter element may be a labyrinth filter or an expanded metal filter. In the unlocked state, the at least one latch preferably withdrawn into the frame of the filter device. In the locked state, it preferably extends out of this. The at least one displaceable latch can be operatively connected to the actuating device. Preferably, the locking device on two bars, which are spaced from each other. Characterized in that the locking device is displaced, the filter device can be quickly and conveniently removed by pressing the actuator from the fan box and used again in this.
The extractor hood includes a first filter support mounted on a first inner wall of the fan box and a second filter support mounted on a second inner wall of the fan box opposite the first inner wall. The filter device rests on the filter carriers. The locking device removably engages in a first receiving portion of the first filter carrier. An attachment portion of the filter device engages in a second receiving portion of the second filter carrier.
The fan box preferably has a cuboid shape with four side walls. The side walls can be designed as sheet metal components and form four inner walls of the fan box. The first inner wall and the second inner wall are preferably spaced from each other. The first filter carrier may extend along and be connected to the first inner wall. The second filter carrier may extend along the second inner wall and be connected thereto. The first filter carrier preferably has the first receiving portion. The first receiving section preferably has two recesses provided in the first filter carrier. The attachment portion of the filter device is preferably formed as at least one extending out of a frame of the filter device tab. The attachment portion is preferably fixed, ie not displaceable with respect to the filter device. Preferably, the attachment portion has two such tabs, which are spaced from each other. The fact that the filter device rests on the filter supports, this is pressed during operation of the hood by the air flow against the filter support and sealed against them. Since the first filter carrier and the second filter carrier abut against the first inner wall and the second inner wall, is between the filter support and the corresponding inner wall no air gap available. As a result, a seal of the filter carrier is ensured against the inner walls. A leakage air flow past the filter device is reliably prevented. This increases the efficiency of the extractor hood.

GemƤƟ einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung sind die FiltertrƤger leistenfƶrmig.According to a further preferred development, the filter carriers are strip-shaped.

Unter "leistenfƶrmig" ist vorliegend zu verstehen, dass die FiltertrƤger eine Hƶhe und eine Tiefe aufweisen, welche bevorzugt geringer sind als eine jeweilige Breite der FiltertrƤger. Vorzugsweise ist die Hƶhe geringer als die Tiefe der FiltertrƤger. Die FiltertrƤger sind vorzugsweise als dĆ¼nnwandige Kunststoffspritzgussbauteile ausgefĆ¼hrt.In the present case, "strip-shaped" is to be understood as meaning that the filter carriers have a height and a depth which are preferably smaller than a respective width of the filter carrier. Preferably, the height is less than the depth of the filter carrier. The filter supports are preferably designed as thin-walled plastic injection molded components.

GemƤƟ einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung weisen die FiltertrƤger jeweils einen Auflageabschnitt auf, auf dem die Filtereinrichtung aufliegt.According to a further preferred refinement, the filter carriers each have a support section on which the filter device rests.

Die Verriegelungseinrichtung ist vorzugsweise mit dem Handgriff gekoppelt. Bei einer BetƤtigung des Handgriffs verlagert sich die Verriegelungseinrichtung relativ zu der Filtereinrichtung.The locking device is preferably coupled to the handle. Upon actuation of the handle, the locking device displaces relative to the filter device.

GemƤƟ einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung ist der Handgriff im verriegelten Zustand bĆ¼ndig mit einer OberflƤche der Filtereinrichtung angeordnet.According to a further preferred development, the handle is arranged in the locked state flush with a surface of the filter device.

Hierdurch wird im Betrieb der Dunstabzugshaube eine Ć¼ber die OberflƤche der Filtereinrichtung strƶmende Luftstrƶmung nicht gestƶrt. Hierdurch wird eine GerƤuschreduktion erreicht. Im entriegelten Zustand der Verriegelungseinrichtung erstreckt sich der Handgriff aus der OberflƤche der Filtereinrichtung heraus.As a result, an air flow flowing over the surface of the filter device is not disturbed during operation of the extractor hood. This will be a Noise reduction achieved. In the unlocked state of the locking device, the handle extends out of the surface of the filter device.

GemƤƟ einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung weist die BetƤtigungseinrichtung ein Federelement auf, das die Verriegelungseinrichtung von dem entriegelten Zustand in den verriegelten Zustand verlagert.According to a further preferred development, the actuating device has a spring element which displaces the locking device from the unlocked state into the locked state.

Das Federelement ist insbesondere derart angeordnet, dass dieses die Verriegelungseinrichtung aus der Filtereinrichtung heraus in den verriegelten Zustand verlagert. Im entriegelten Zustand wird die Verriegelungseinrichtung durch das Federelement wieder in den verriegelten Zustand verlagert. Durch das Federelement wird der Handgriff bĆ¼ndig mit der OberflƤche der Filtereinrichtung angeordnet, da das Federelement die Verriegelungseinrichtung in Richtung des verriegelten Zustands federvorspannt.The spring element is in particular arranged such that it displaces the locking device out of the filter device into the locked state. In the unlocked state, the locking device is displaced by the spring element back into the locked state.

Der erste FiltertrƤger weist beispielsweise Vorwƶlbungen und Ausnehmungen auf, die passend zu korrespondierenden Vertiefungen, beispielsweise Sicken, und Vorwƶlbungen, beispielsweise Rippen, der ersten Innenwand ausgebildet sind. Hierdurch wird ein flƤchiger Kontakt des ersten FiltertrƤgers mit der ersten Innenwand gewƤhrleistet, wodurch eine Luftstrƶmung zwischen dem ersten FiltertrƤger und der ersten Innenwand unterbunden wird. Dies erhƶht die Effizienz der Dunstabzugshaube.The first filter carrier has, for example, protrusions and recesses which are designed to match corresponding recesses, for example beads, and protrusions, for example ribs, of the first inner wall. As a result, a surface contact of the first filter carrier is ensured with the first inner wall, whereby an air flow between the first filter carrier and the first inner wall is prevented. This increases the efficiency of the extractor hood.

GemƤƟ einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung weist der erste FiltertrƤger zumindest eine Ausnehmung auf, die formschlĆ¼ssig in zumindest ein an der ersten Innenwand vorgesehenes Befestigungselement eingreift.According to a further preferred development, the first filter carrier has at least one recess which engages positively in at least one fastening element provided on the first inner wall.
