Description

Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, angeordnet im Bereich neben offenen Extractor hood device, arranged in the area next to open ones
GarungsbereichenCooking areas
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, angeordnet im Bereich neben Koch- oder sonstigen offenen Garungsbereichen für die Nahrungszubereitung mit einer in etwa deren Ebene angeordneten Ansaugvorrichtung für die von diesen Bereichen ausgehenden Dünsten und mit einer Saugeinrichtung zum Abführen dieser Dünste.The present invention relates to an extractor device arranged in the area next to cooking or other open cooking areas for food preparation with a suction device arranged approximately in its plane for the vapors emanating from these areas and with a suction device for removing these vapors.
Zum Absaugen von Koch- oder sonstigen Garungsdünsten werden auch im Haushalt überlicherweise Dunstabzugshauben oder Dunstabzugsessen zum Einsatz gebracht, die oberhalb der Kochstelle bzw. der Garungsstelle angeordnet sind. Die bei der thermischen Zubereitung von Nahrungsmitteln aufsteigenden Dünste werden von diesen Einrichtung erfaßt, üblicherweise gefiltert und durch eine Ventilator meist ins Freie, bisweilen aber auch in den Arbeitsraum zurückgeblasen.For extracting cooking or other cooking vapors, extractor hoods or extractor hoods are usually also used in the household, which are arranged above the hotplate or the cooking point. The vapors rising during the thermal preparation of food are detected by this device, usually filtered and usually blown out into the open by a fan, but sometimes also blown back into the work area.
Es sind aber auch Anordnungen bekannt geworden, die seitlich des Garungsbereichs ihre Ansaugöffnungen aufweisen. Im Zusammenhang mit Friteusen oder Grilleinrichtungen sind auch Absaugmaßnahmen bekannt geworden, die in der Bedienungsebene dieser Einrichtungen neben diesen angeordnet sind und somit die beim jeweiligen Gärungsprozeß abgehenden Dünste zur Seite und nach unten abführen. Dazu sind Gebläse mit hohen Luftförderleistungen erforderlich, da die Absaugrichtung nicht in der natürlichen Ausbreitungsrichtung der Garungsdünste nach oben liegt. Die seitlich neben den Garungsbereichen angeordneten Dunstabzugsmaßnahmen haben jedoch gegenüber den oberhalb der Garungsbereiche angeordneten Dunstabzugshauben und Dunstabzugsessen den Vorteil, daß der Bereich oberhalb der Garungsbereiche freier zugänglich und einsehbar ist.However, arrangements have also become known which have their suction openings on the side of the cooking area. In connection with deep fryers or grilling devices, suction measures have also become known which are arranged next to them in the operating level of these devices and thus remove the vapors emitted during the respective fermentation process to the side and downwards. Blowers with high air flow rates are required for this, since the suction direction is not upwards in the natural direction of propagation of the cooking vapors. However, the extractor hoods arranged to the side of the cooking areas have the advantage over the extractor hoods and extractor hoods arranged above the cooking areas that the area above the cooking areas is more freely accessible and visible.
Aufbauend auf diesem Erkenntnisstand ist es Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Dunstabzugsvorrichtung bereitzustellen, welche je nach Bedarf zur Garungsstelle mit ihrem Ansaugbereich positionierbar ist und die dennoch einen vorteilhaften Zugriff und eine günstige Einsichtnahme durch die Bedienungsperson während des Garprozesses zum Gargut ermöglicht.Based on this state of knowledge, it is the object of the present invention to provide an extractor device which, depending on requirements, is used for Cooking point can be positioned with its suction area and which nevertheless enables advantageous access and favorable inspection by the operator during the cooking process for the food to be cooked.
Eine Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, die diesen Forderungen gerecht wird, ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß bei einer in der Ausgangslage in der Ebene der offenen Garungsbereiche neben diesen angeordneten Ansaugvorrichtung einer Dunstabzugsvorrichtung diese Ansaugvorrichtung aus der Ebene der offenen Garungsbereiche nach oben herausfahrbar bis auf eine Höhe über auf den offenen Garungsbereich aufgesetzten Gargutbehälter in unterschiedlichen Höhen einstellbar angeordnet ist und über eine Längenausgleichs-Rohrverbindung mit der Saugeinrichtung strömungstechnisch gekoppelt ist.An extractor device that meets these requirements is characterized according to the invention in that, in the case of a suction device of an extractor device arranged next to these in the starting position in the plane of the open cooking areas, this suction device can be moved up out of the level of the open cooking areas up to a height above the open cooking area placed food container is adjustable in different heights and is fluidically coupled to the suction device via a length compensation pipe connection.
Eine Dunstabzugsvorrichtung nach diesen erfindungsgemäßen Merkmalen kann wie eine bekanntermaßen neben einem Garungsbereich, beispielsweise einer Friteuse oder einer Grilleinrichtung angeordneten Absaugvorrichtung betrieben werden, indem deren Ansaugbereich geringfügig aus der versenkten Ruhestellung herausgefahren wird. Ein weiteres Herausfahren beeinträchtigt von dieser Seite zwar den Zugriff zum wärmetechnisch behandelten Gargut, sie verbessert aber zunehmend die Absaugwirkung auf die abgehenden Garungsdünste.An extractor device according to these features according to the invention can, as is known, be operated next to a cooking area, for example a fryer or a grilling device, in that the suction area is slightly moved out of the lowered rest position. Moving out further from this side affects access to the heat-treated food, but it increasingly improves the suction effect on the outgoing cooking fumes.
Bevorzugt ist aber die Ansaugvorrichtung im nach oben mehr oder weniger ausgefahrenen Zustand auch über den offenen Garungsbereich bzw. einen darauf aufgesetzten Gargutbehälter ausschwenkbar gelagert angeordnet, so daß die abgegebenen Garungsdünste besonders intensiv und gesichert angesaugt und abgeführt werden können.Preferably, however, the suction device is arranged so that it can be swung out in the more or less extended state above the open cooking area or a cooking container placed thereon, so that the emitted cooking vapors can be sucked in and discharged particularly intensively and securely.
Zur Höhenverstellung der Ansaugvorrichtung dient bevorzugt eine motorische Antriebsvorrichtung durch die über Selbsthemmung sichergestellt werden kann, daß die Ansaugvorrichtung in beliebigen Höhenstellungen verharren kann. In den herausgefahrenen und zurückgefahrenen Endlagen wird durch entsprechend angeordnete Endschalter die Motorabschaltung bewerkstelligt. Das seitliche Ausschwenken wird ermöglicht durch eine längsseitlich angeordnete rohrförmige Säule, über die die angesaugten Garungsdünste durch eine entfernt angeordnete Saugvorrichtung abtransportierbar sind. Das Ausschwenken wird vorteilhafterweise von Hand durchgeführt, da dies zu einer besseren Ausrichtung des Ansaugbereichs zum abzusaugenden Bereich vorteilhaft ist. Für die Rückführung der Schwenkstellung in die Ursprungslage, in der die Ansaugvorrichtung nach unten auch endgültig in die Rastposition eingefahren werden kann, dient für jede der beiden Ausschwenkseiten je eine Kulissenführung, die unterflurig auf die Rohrsäule wirkt.A motorized drive device is preferably used to adjust the height of the suction device, by means of which self-locking can be used to ensure that the suction device can remain in any desired height position. In the extended and retracted end positions, the motor is switched off by appropriately arranged limit switches. The lateral swiveling is made possible by a tubular arranged on the longitudinal side Column through which the sucked-in cooking vapors can be removed by a suction device arranged remotely. The pivoting out is advantageously carried out by hand, since this is advantageous for better alignment of the suction area with the area to be extracted. For the return of the swivel position to the original position, in which the suction device can also be finally moved down into the latching position, a link guide is used for each of the two swiveling-out sides, which acts on the tubular column below the surface.
Ein nach den Mermalen der Erfindung ausgestaltetes Ausführungsbeispiel, aus dem weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen ersichtlich sind, wird anhand der Zeichnung im folgenden näher beschrieben.An exemplary embodiment designed according to the principles of the invention, from which further preferred embodiments of the measures according to the invention can be seen, is described in more detail below with reference to the drawing.

Aus Fig. 1 ist ersichtlich ein Teil einer Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, welcher in eine Ausnehmung einer Arbeitsplatte neben oder zwischen offenen Garungsbereichen einer Küche einsetzbar ist. Derartig offene Garungsbereiche können beispielsweise sein eine Kochmulde mit einer oder mehreren Kochstellen oder eine in die Arbeitsplatte eingesetzte Grill- oder Fritiereinrichtung. Die Fig. 1 zeigt die Ansaugvorrichtung in einer in die Arbeitsstellung herausgefahrenen Position perspektivisch, während die Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht davon in Verbindung mit der das Gehäuse 1 der Anordnung aufnehmenden Arbeitsplatte 2 als geschnittene Seitenansicht zeigt. Die Figuren 3 und 4 zeigen die Anordnungen ebenfalls in geschnittenen Seitenansichten jedoch mit in die Ruhestellung eingefahrener Ansaugvorrichtung 3. Dabei liegt die obere Begrenzungsplatine 4, die abnehmbar und geschlossen ausgestaltet ist, in der Ebene der benachbarten, nicht dargestellten offenen Garungsbereich, so daß sie ihre Aufnahmewanne 5 und damit das Gehäuseinnere vor Verschmutzungen gut abschirmt. Beidseitig der Ansaugvorrichtung 3 sind Ansaugöffnungen 6 zur Aufnahme der anzusaugenden Garungsdünste angeordnet; dahinter im Inneren der Ansaugvorrichtung liegt das Filtermaterial, welches nach Abheben der oberen Begrenzungsplatine 4 zu Reinigungszwecken herausnehmbar bzw. austauschbar ist. Die Ansaugvorrichtung 3 ist angeordnet am oberen Ende einer rohrförmigen Säule 7, durch welche die durch die Öffnungen 6 der Ansaugvorrichtung 3 angesaugten Dünste nach unten abgeführt werden können und zwar beeinflußt durch ein nicht dargestelltes Gebläse, das beispielsweise im Sockelbereich des Küchenmöbels untergebracht ist und über eine ebenfalls nicht dargestellte flexible Rohrverbindung mit in dem unteren Ende der rohrförmigen Säule 7 strömungstechnisch verbunden ist. Um einen störungsfreien und möglichst ruckfreien Betrieb beim Ausfahren, Ausschwenken und Zurückfahren der Ansaugvorrichtung 3 über die rohrförmige Säule 7 zu gewährleisten, bedarf es einer stabilen Führungsanordnung deren wesentliche Bestandteile ein oberer Lagerbock 8, ein unterer Lagerbock 9 und ein dazwischen angeordneter Führungsbock 10 in Verbindung mit zwei Verbindungs und Führungssäulen 1 1 sind. Der Grundaufbau dieser drei Böcke 8, 9 und 10 ist im Querschnitt im wesentlichen gleichartig, so daß diese Böcke aus stranggepreßtem Aluminiumprofil mit relativ kostengünstiger Präzision als zugeschnittene Teile und gegebenenfalls bezüglich der Modifikationen nachbearbeitbar herstellbar sind. Die Lagerböcke 8 und 9 sind im oberen und unteren Bereich des Gehäuses 1 angeordnet und über ihre Aufnahmebohrungen 12 bzw. 13 mit den Führungsstangen 11 fest verbunden. Der Führungsblock 10 seinerseits ist fest am unteren Ende der rohrförmigen Säule 7 befestigt und auf den Führungsstangen 11 über in seinen Bohrungen 14 angeordneten Kugellagerführungen längsverschieblich. Die rohrförmige Säule 7 ist in einem Führungsring 15 der Aufnahmewanne 5 längsverschieblich und drehbar gelagert.1 shows part of an extractor hood device which can be inserted into a recess in a worktop next to or between open cooking areas of a kitchen. Such open cooking areas can be, for example, a hob with one or more hotplates or a grill or fryer inserted into the worktop. 1 shows the Suction device in a position extended into the working position, while FIG. 2 shows a side view thereof in connection with the worktop 2 accommodating the housing 1 of the arrangement as a sectional side view. Figures 3 and 4 show the arrangements also in sectioned side views but with the suction device 3 retracted into the rest position. The upper boundary plate 4, which is designed to be removable and closed, lies in the plane of the adjacent, not shown, open cooking area, so that it has its own Receptacle 5 and thus shields the inside of the housing from dirt. Suction openings 6 are arranged on both sides of the suction device 3 for receiving the cooking fumes to be sucked in; behind it in the interior of the suction device is the filter material, which can be removed or exchanged for cleaning purposes after the upper boundary plate 4 has been lifted off. The suction device 3 is arranged at the upper end of a tubular column 7, through which the fumes sucked in through the openings 6 of the suction device 3 can be discharged downwards, influenced by a blower, not shown, which is accommodated, for example, in the base area of the kitchen furniture and via a flexible pipe connection, also not shown, is connected to the flow in the lower end of the tubular column 7. In order to ensure trouble-free and jerk-free operation when extending, swiveling and retracting the suction device 3 via the tubular column 7, a stable guide arrangement is required, the essential components of which are an upper bearing block 8, a lower bearing block 9 and an intermediate guide block 10 in connection with two connecting and guide columns 1 1 are. The basic structure of these three trestles 8, 9 and 10 is essentially the same in cross section, so that these trestles can be manufactured from extruded aluminum profile with relatively inexpensive precision as cut parts and, if necessary, reworkable with regard to the modifications. The bearing blocks 8 and 9 are arranged in the upper and lower region of the housing 1 and are fixedly connected to the guide rods 11 via their receiving bores 12 and 13, respectively. The guide block 10 in turn is fixedly attached to the lower end of the tubular column 7 and on the guide rods 11 via ball bearing guides arranged in its bores 14 longitudinally displaceable. The tubular column 7 is mounted in a guide ring 15 of the receiving trough 5 so as to be longitudinally displaceable and rotatable.
An den Lagerböcken 8 und 9 sind Umlenkrollen 16 für einen umlaufend geführten Zahnriemen 17 angeordnet. Eine Flanke des Zahnriemens ist fest mit dem Führungsbock 14 verbunden. Die obere Umlenkrolle 16 wiederum ist ausgebildet als Zahnriemenrad und mit einem Antriebsmotor verbunden über welchen somit der Führungsbock 14, die mit ihm axial fest verbundene aber zu ihm schwenkbare rohrförmige Säule 7 und damit die Ansaugvorrichtung 6 höhenverstellbar sind. Über einen im Bedienbereich 18 angeordneten Schalter 19 sind durch Links- bzw. Rechtsauslenkungen die Ausfahr- und Einrückbewegungen in axialer Richtung durch den Antriebsmotor erzielbar. Der weitere Schalter 20 dient zur Aktivierung des nicht dargestellten Gebläses.Deflection rollers 16 for an all-round toothed belt 17 are arranged on the bearing blocks 8 and 9. A flank of the toothed belt is firmly connected to the guide bracket 14. The upper deflection roller 16 is in turn designed as a toothed belt wheel and connected to a drive motor via which the guide bracket 14, the tubular column 7 which is axially fixed but pivotable to it and thus the suction device 6 can be adjusted in height. Via a switch 19 arranged in the operating area 18, the extension and engagement movements in the axial direction can be achieved by the drive motor by left or right deflections. The further switch 20 serves to activate the fan, not shown.
Die rohrartig ausgebildete Säule 7 flankierend sind im Gehäuse 1 Kulissenführungen 21 angeordnet, auf welche ein an der rohrförmigen Säule 7 befestigter Führungsbolzen 22 beim Zurückführen der Säule 7 und mit ihr der Ansaugvorrichtung 3 in die Ausgangslage derart aufläuft, daß die Ansaugvorrichtung aus dem Garungsbereich in eine Lage parallel zur Aufnahmewanne herausgeschwenkt wird und dort in die Ruheposition zurückgefahren werden kann. Endabschaltkontakte dienen zur Abschaltung des Antriebsmotors bei Erreichen der oberen und der unteren Endstellung. The tubular column 7 flanking are arranged in the housing 1 sliding guides 21, onto which a guide bolt 22 attached to the tubular column 7 runs back when the column 7 is returned, and with it the suction device 3 into the starting position, such that the suction device moves out of the cooking area into one Position is pivoted parallel to the tray and can be returned to the rest position. Limit switch contacts are used to switch off the drive motor when the upper and lower end positions are reached.
