Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a combination appliance with a hob and extractor device with a filter unit.
  • trough fans In kitchens, it is known to use so-called trough fans instead of extractor hoods, which are arranged above a hob, for example on the room wall or ceiling, in order to extract the vapors and vapors that arise during cooking.
  • a downdraft ventilation is described, for example.
  • a cooking steam inlet opening located on the hob level is connected to a vacuum source via an exhaust air duct system.
  • the downdraft ventilation is provided as a separate device between two cooktops or next to a cooktop.
  • a disadvantage of this known filter arrangement is that liquid which enters the cooking steam inlet opening has to pass through the filter element before it reaches the tub. The liquid passes through in an uncontrolled manner.
  • a hob with central extraction of cooking fumes downwards In this hob, one or more cutouts are made in the area around the geometric centroid.
  • Devices for extracting kitchen fumes are provided below the hob.
  • the devices for extracting kitchen vapors are preferably radial fans that are attached to the underside of a hob housing and are sucked upwards via the air from cooking vapors suction chambers located below.
  • a grease filter insert can be inserted into the recess, the side walls of which are permeable to cooking vapors and the bottom of which forms a collecting tray. With this grease filter insert, the drip tray can be used to hold liquids.
  • a suction system which sucks air laterally below the grill.
  • a horizontal air baffle is arranged in the suction opening of the suction unit so that the smoke produced is extracted intensively and efficiently.

Since the collecting element is designed as part of a filter element, the entry of air into the filter unit can still be guaranteed. Since at least one collecting area is additionally provided, liquid can be collected from the collecting element in an area which is separate from the filter element. Since the collecting area is separate from the filter element, the shape and size of the collecting area can be freely selected and larger amounts of liquid can thus be absorbed. In particular when using the filter unit with an extractor device, the fan of which is arranged below the filter unit in such a way that the air inlet opening of the fan housing faces upwards, the collection of liquids is advantageous.
  • the cleaning of the air can be improved by providing several filter elements arranged one above the other.
