Definitions
- the invention relates to an extractor hood having a housing having a suction opening and at least one arranged in the suction surface element, in particular a grease filter and / or Wrasenleitblech, wherein at least one locking device is provided for the surface element, with which the surface element on the housing in an operating position is determinable.
- Cooker hoods are used in kitchens in the home to capture the fumes produced at a cooking place and either filtered back into the room air or remove it from the room to the outside.
- extractor hoods in the context of the present invention, both such hoods are referred to, which are mounted on or in a wall unit of a chewing furniture, as well as food, which are fixed independently of the kitchen furniture on a wall or on the ceiling.
- Extractor hoods have a housing in which inter alia, a fan is arranged, with which the vapor is sucked through a suction port.
- a grease filter and / or a Wrasenleitblech collectively referred to as surface element.
- the task of the grease filter is to remove as completely as possible the fat components contained in the vapor.
- the size of the grease filter corresponds to the size of the intake, so that all sucked-in steam flows through the grease filter.
- a Wrasenleitblech is used in an extractor hood with Randabsaugung.
- the Wrasenleitblech is slightly smaller than the suction port of the housing, so that between the housing and Wrasenleitblech a gap is present, through which the vapor is sucked.
- a grease filter is arranged behind the Wrasenleitblech. It is also known to combine a Wrasenleitblech with a grease filter to a common area unit. The Wrasenleitblech and the grease filter thereby form a structural unit and are mounted together on the housing or dismantled again.
- the surface element is releasably attached to the Housing attached.
- a bearing point is provided which fixes the surface element relative to the housing at least in the vertical direction.
- the bearing allows pivotal movement of the surface element relative to the housing.
- the bearing can for this purpose include, for example, a hook or a hinge.
- a locking device is provided, with which the surface element can be locked to the housing. The locking device is spaced from a pivot axis of the surface element defined by the bearing. To remove the surface element, the locking device is first released, then the surface element is pivoted about the pivot axis formed in the bearing point down and finally solved the surface element at the bearing point of the housing.
- Known locking devices often consist of a biased with a spring in a locking position bolt, which can be moved against the spring force by an operator in an open position.
- the bolt is for this purpose connected to a handle which is integrated in the surface element.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide an extractor hood with an ergonomically favorable locking device for the surface element available, in which the risk of falling of the surface element is minimized.
- the locking device is a closure, a locking element, which is insertable into the closure, as well as at least one guide extension, which is insertable into an insertion, has, wherein the at least one guide extension further in the direction of the insertion extends as the locking element in the direction of the closure.
- the closure, the latching element, the guide extension and the insertion opening are all part of the locking device.
- the object of the guide extension and the insertion opening is to position the surface element exactly in the housing, so that the locking element is arranged exactly in front of the closure. When the surface element is pivoted downward from the housing, the distance between the guide extension and the insertion opening is less than the distance between the locking element and the closure. Upon an upward pivoting of the surface element, therefore, first the guide extension comes into contact with the insertion opening and aligns the surface element before the locking element is inserted into the closure.
- the at least one guide extension is arranged adjacent to the latching element.
- Guide extension and locking element are located on the same component, in close proximity to each other. Nevertheless, the guide extension and the locking element are each formed by their own bodies, which protrude from a common base plate.
- the latching element and the at least one guide extension are arranged on the surface element. It follows that the closure is arranged on the housing. The insertion opening is also located on the housing, in close proximity to the closure.
- the locking device is designed as a push-push element.
- Push-push elements are those locking elements which are locked in a certain direction when pressed for the first time and are released in the same direction when pressed again.
- the surface element this means that the surface element is pressed to lock the surface element in the direction of the housing. Pressing the surface element again in the direction of the housing unlocks the locking element, so that the surface element is movable downwards.
- the surface element is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis on the housing.
- the surface element can be pivoted out of the operating position about the pivot axis downwards. This is done, for example, when the surface element is to be separated from the housing or to make the interior of the housing of the hood accessible.
- a bearing for the surface element in which the pivot axis is defined.
- the surface element is pivotally supported about the pivot axis.
- the bearing is designed so that the surface element can be released from the bearing and thus completely removed from the hood.
- the bearing can limit a possible pivoting movement of the surface element down to prevent uncontrolled downward pivoting of the surface element.
- the bearing ensures that the surface element does not accidentally come off the bearing, which in particular a fall of the surface element is prevented.
- the torques to be absorbed by the locking device and the bearing can be minimized by arranging the locking device at a distance from the bearing.
- the at least one guide extension has at least one first insertion bevel, with which an offset of the locking element relative to the closure in a first direction, in particular in the direction perpendicular to the pivot axis, can be compensated.
- the task of the insertion bevel is to allow insertion of the guide extension into the insertion opening despite an offset of the surface element.
- the insertion bevel causes an alignment of the surface element. This alignment process is completed before the locking element comes into contact with the closure.
- the guide extension has at least one second insertion bevel, with which an offset of the locking element relative to the closure in a second direction, in particular in the direction parallel to the pivot axis, can be compensated.
- the two chamfers are at the same height on the guide extension, so that the surface element during a pivoting upward is aligned simultaneously in the first direction and in the second direction.
- the latching element and the guide extension are formed by a common component, which is preferably made of plastic or aluminum.
- the latching element and the at least one guide extension stand separately from each other from a common base.
- the execution of plastic or aluminum allows a particularly simple production, for example as a spray or diecasting.
- the closure and the insertion opening are formed by separate components, which are preferably connected to each other.
- This construction makes it possible to use a standardized purchased part as a closure, while the insertion opening is provided in a housing part of the extractor hood.
- a connection of the components of the insertion opening and the closure ensures that the insertion opening and closure are accurately positioned relative to each other.
- the closure is essentially made of plastic.
- the insertion opening is essentially made of metal, preferably made of sheet metal.
- FIG. 1 is shown in perspective view designed as an Eszah extractor hood 1.
- the extractor hood 1 comprises a housing 3, the underside of which has a large intake opening, in which two surface elements 2 are arranged.
- the surface elements 2 are each formed by a Wrasenleitblech, which is combined with a arranged on the back of the Wrasenleitblechs grease filter. The vapor is sucked through openings at the edge of the Wrasenleitblechs and then flows through the grease filter.
- Wrasenleitblech and grease filter form a structural unit, which is referred to here as surface element 2.
- a chimney 4 is arranged, in which there are a fan and channels for draining the filtered vapor.
- lighting elements 5 are arranged into the housing 3 with which a cooking point located below the extractor hood 1 can be illuminated.

- each surface element 2 is held with its two rear corners in each case a bearing 7.
- the front side of each surface element 2 is fastened to the housing 3 with a respective locking device 8.
- the locking devices 8 are designed as push-push elements. A release of the locking device 8 takes place in that the surface element 2 is pressed in the region of the locking device 8 upwards. Subsequently, the surface element 2 can be pivoted downwards, wherein the pivot axis of the surface element 2 is in the region of the bearing points 7 and is defined by this. In order then to lock the surface element 2 again, the surface element 2 is pressed in the region of the locking device 8 back up. When the surface element 2 is then released, the surface element 2 is locked in the housing 3.
- the locking device 8 is unlocked and the surface element 2 is pivoted to an end position down.
- the bearing 7 is designed such that it allows a pivoting movement of the surface element 2 about an axis formed in the bearing 7 pivot axis.

Abstract
Description
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist eine Dunstabzugshaube mit einem eine Ansaugƶffnung aufweisenden GehƤuse und mindestens einem in der Ansaugƶffnung angeordneten FlƤchenelement, insbesondere einem Fettfilter und/oder einem Wrasenleitblech, wobei mindestens eine Verriegelungsvorrichtung fĆ¼r das FlƤchenelement vorgesehen ist, mit dem das FlƤchenelement an dem GehƤuse in einer Betriebsstellung festlegbar ist.The invention relates to an extractor hood having a housing having a suction opening and at least one arranged in the suction surface element, in particular a grease filter and / or Wrasenleitblech, wherein at least one locking device is provided for the surface element, with which the surface element on the housing in an operating position is determinable.
Dunstabzugshauben werden im hƤuslichen Bereich in KĆ¼chen eingesetzt, um den an einer Kochstelle entstehenden Wrasen einzufangen und entweder gefiltert in die Raumluft zurĆ¼ckzuleiten oder aus dem Raum ins Freie abzufĆ¼hren. Als Dunstabzugshauben werden im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung sowohl solche Hauben bezeichnet, die an oder in einem Oberschrank eines KĆ¼ckenmƶbels montiert werden, als auch Essen, die unabhƤngig vom KĆ¼chenmobiliar an einer Wand oder an der Zimmerdecke befestigt werden.Cooker hoods are used in kitchens in the home to capture the fumes produced at a cooking place and either filtered back into the room air or remove it from the room to the outside. As extractor hoods in the context of the present invention, both such hoods are referred to, which are mounted on or in a wall unit of a chewing furniture, as well as food, which are fixed independently of the kitchen furniture on a wall or on the ceiling.
Dunstabzugshauben besitzen ein GehƤuse, in dem unter anderem ein LĆ¼fter angeordnet ist, mit dem der Wrasen durch eine Ansaugƶffnung angesaugt wird. In der Ansaugƶffnung befindet sich ein Fettfilter und/oder ein Wrasenleitblech, im Folgenden zusammenfassend als FlƤchenelement bezeichnet. Aufgabe des Fettfilters ist es, die im Wrasen enthaltenen Fettbestandteile mƶglichst vollstƤndig abzuscheiden. Die GrƶĆe des Fettfilters entspricht dabei der GrƶĆe der Ansaugƶffnung, sodass sƤmtlicher angesaugte Wrasen den Fettfilter durchstrƶmt. Ein Wrasenleitblech wird bei einer Dunstabzugshaube mit Randabsaugung eingesetzt. Hierbei ist das Wrasenleitblech etwas kleiner als die Ansaugƶffnung des GehƤuses, sodass zwischen GehƤuse und Wrasenleitblech ein Spalt vorhanden ist, durch den der Wrasen eingesaugt wird. In der Regel ist hinter dem Wrasenleitblech ein Fettfilter angeordnet. Bekannt ist es auch, ein Wrasenleitblech mit einem Fettfilter zu einer gemeinsamen FlƤcheneinheit zu kombinieren. Das Wrasenleitblech und der Fettfilter bilden dabei eine Baueinheit und werden gemeinsam an dem GehƤuse montiert bzw. wieder demontiert.Extractor hoods have a housing in which inter alia, a fan is arranged, with which the vapor is sucked through a suction port. In the suction opening is a grease filter and / or a Wrasenleitblech, collectively referred to as surface element. The task of the grease filter is to remove as completely as possible the fat components contained in the vapor. The size of the grease filter corresponds to the size of the intake, so that all sucked-in steam flows through the grease filter. A Wrasenleitblech is used in an extractor hood with Randabsaugung. Here, the Wrasenleitblech is slightly smaller than the suction port of the housing, so that between the housing and Wrasenleitblech a gap is present, through which the vapor is sucked. As a rule, a grease filter is arranged behind the Wrasenleitblech. It is also known to combine a Wrasenleitblech with a grease filter to a common area unit. The Wrasenleitblech and the grease filter thereby form a structural unit and are mounted together on the housing or dismantled again.
Um ein Reinigen des FlƤchenelements zu erleichtern, und um einen Zugang in den Innenraum des GehƤuses zu ermƶglichen, ist das FlƤchenelement lƶsbar an dem GehƤuse befestigt. Hierzu ist eine Lagerstelle vorgesehen, die das FlƤchenelement gegenĆ¼ber dem GehƤuse zumindest in vertikaler Richtung fixiert. Ćblicherweise ermƶglicht die Lagerstelle eine Schwenkbewegung des FlƤchenelements relativ zum GehƤuse. Die Lagerstelle kann hierzu beispielsweise einen Haken oder ein Scharnier umfassen. ZusƤtzlich zu der Lagerstelle ist Ć¼blicherweise eine Verriegelungsvorrichtung vorgesehen, mit dem das FlƤchenelement an dem GehƤuse verriegelt werden kann. Die Verriegelungsvorrichtung ist von einer durch die Lagerstelle definierten Schwenkachse des FlƤchenelements beabstandet. Um das FlƤchenelement zu entfernen, wird zunƤchst die Verriegelungsvorrichtung gelƶst, anschlieĆend das FlƤchenelement um die in der Lagerstelle gebildete Schwenkachse nach unten geschwenkt und schlieĆlich das FlƤchenelement an der Lagerstelle von dem GehƤuse gelƶst.In order to facilitate cleaning of the surface element, and to allow access into the interior of the housing, the surface element is releasably attached to the Housing attached. For this purpose, a bearing point is provided which fixes the surface element relative to the housing at least in the vertical direction. Usually, the bearing allows pivotal movement of the surface element relative to the housing. The bearing can for this purpose include, for example, a hook or a hinge. In addition to the bearing usually a locking device is provided, with which the surface element can be locked to the housing. The locking device is spaced from a pivot axis of the surface element defined by the bearing. To remove the surface element, the locking device is first released, then the surface element is pivoted about the pivot axis formed in the bearing point down and finally solved the surface element at the bearing point of the housing.
Bekannte Verriegelungsvorrichtungen bestehen hƤufig aus einem mit einer Feder in eine Verriegelungsstellung vorgespannten Riegel, der entgegen der Federkraft von einer Bedienperson in eine Offenstellung bewegt werden kann. Der Riegel ist hierzu mit einem Griff verbunden, der in das FlƤchenelement integriert ist.Known locking devices often consist of a biased with a spring in a locking position bolt, which can be moved against the spring force by an operator in an open position. The bolt is for this purpose connected to a handle which is integrated in the surface element.
Die Bedienung dieser bekannten Verriegelungseinrichtungen erweist sich als ergonomisch nachteilig. Insbesondere dann, wenn das FlƤchenelement besonders schwer ist - beispielsweise, wenn das FlƤchenelement aus einer Kombination aus Wrasenleitblech und Fettfilter aufgebaut ist - erweist es sich als schwierig, das FlƤchenelement so exakt zu positionieren, dass ein sicheres Einrasten der Verriegelungseinrichtung gewƤhrleistet ist. Dies kann zu einem unbeabsichtigten Lƶsen und damit zu einem Herunterfallen des FlƤchenelements fĆ¼hren, was die Gefahr von BeschƤdigungen des FlƤchenelements oder anderer im Bereich der Dunstabzugshaube befindlicher GegenstƤnde nach sich zieht.The operation of these known locking devices proves to be ergonomically disadvantageous. In particular, when the surface element is particularly difficult - for example, when the surface element is constructed of a combination Wrasenleitblech and grease filter - it proves difficult to position the surface element so accurately that a secure engagement of the locking device is guaranteed. This can lead to unintentional loosening and thus to falling of the surface element, which entails the risk of damage to the surface element or other objects located in the area of the extractor hood.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Dunstabzugshaube mit einer ergonomisch gĆ¼nstigen Verriegelungsvorrichtung fĆ¼r das FlƤchenelement zur VerfĆ¼gung zu stellen, bei dem die Gefahr eines Herunterfallens des FlƤchenelements minimiert ist.The present invention is therefore based on the object to provide an extractor hood with an ergonomically favorable locking device for the surface element available, in which the risk of falling of the surface element is minimized.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemĆ¤Ć dadurch gelƶst, dass die Verriegelungsvorrichtung einen Verschluss, ein Rastelement, welches in den Verschluss einfĆ¼hrbar ist, sowie mindestens einen FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz, welcher in eine EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung einfĆ¼hrbar ist, aufweist, wobei sich der mindestens eine FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz weiter in Richtung der EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung erstreckt als das Rastelement in Richtung des Verschlusses. Der Verschluss, das Rastelement, der FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz und die EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung sind allesamt Bestandteil der Verriegelungsvorrichtung. Aufgabe des FĆ¼hrungsfortsatzes und der EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung ist es, das FlƤchenelement exakt im GehƤuse zu positionieren, so dass das Rastelement genau vor dem Verschluss angeordnet ist. Wenn das FlƤchenelement nach unten vom GehƤuse weggeschwenkt ist, ist der Abstand zwischen dem FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz und der EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung geringer als der Abstand zwischen dem Rastelement und dem Verschluss. Bei einem nach oben Schwenken des FlƤchenelements tritt folglich zuerst der FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz mit der EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung in Kontakt und richtet das FlƤchenelement aus, bevor das Rastelement in den Verschluss eingefĆ¼hrt wird.This object is achieved in that the locking device is a closure, a locking element, which is insertable into the closure, as well as at least one guide extension, which is insertable into an insertion, has, wherein the at least one guide extension further in the direction of the insertion extends as the locking element in the direction of the closure. The closure, the latching element, the guide extension and the insertion opening are all part of the locking device. The object of the guide extension and the insertion opening is to position the surface element exactly in the housing, so that the locking element is arranged exactly in front of the closure. When the surface element is pivoted downward from the housing, the distance between the guide extension and the insertion opening is less than the distance between the locking element and the closure. Upon an upward pivoting of the surface element, therefore, first the guide extension comes into contact with the insertion opening and aligns the surface element before the locking element is inserted into the closure.
Der mindestens eine FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz ist benachbart zum Rastelement angeordnet. FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz und Rastelement befinden sich dabei an dem gleichen Bauteil, in unmittelbarer NƤhe zueinander. Dennoch sind der FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz und das Rastelement von jeweils eigenen Kƶrpern gebildet, die von einer gemeinsamen Bodenplatte hervorragen.The at least one guide extension is arranged adjacent to the latching element. Guide extension and locking element are located on the same component, in close proximity to each other. Nevertheless, the guide extension and the locking element are each formed by their own bodies, which protrude from a common base plate.
Bevorzugt sind das Rastelement und der mindestens eine FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz an dem FlƤchenelement angeordnet. Hieraus ergibt sich, dass der Verschluss an dem GehƤuse angeordnet ist. Die EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung befindet sich ebenfalls an dem GehƤuse, in unmittelbarer NƤhe zum Verschluss.Preferably, the latching element and the at least one guide extension are arranged on the surface element. It follows that the closure is arranged on the housing. The insertion opening is also located on the housing, in close proximity to the closure.
Mit besonderem Vorteil ist die Verriegelungsvorrichtung als Push-Push-Element ausgefĆ¼hrt. Als Push-Push-Elemente werden solche Verriegelungselemente bezeichnet, die bei einem erstmaligen DrĆ¼cken in eine bestimmte Richtung verriegelt werden und bei einem erneuten DrĆ¼cken in dieselbe Richtung gelƶst werden. Im Fall des FlƤchenelements bedeutet dies, dass das FlƤchenelement zum Verriegeln des FlƤchenelements in Richtung des GehƤuses gedrĆ¼ckt wird. Ein erneutes DrĆ¼cken des FlƤchenelements in Richtung des GehƤuses entriegelt das Verriegelungselement, so dass das FlƤchenelement nach unten bewegbar ist.With particular advantage, the locking device is designed as a push-push element. Push-push elements are those locking elements which are locked in a certain direction when pressed for the first time and are released in the same direction when pressed again. In the case of the surface element, this means that the surface element is pressed to lock the surface element in the direction of the housing. Pressing the surface element again in the direction of the housing unlocks the locking element, so that the surface element is movable downwards.
Besonders bevorzugt ist das FlƤchenelement schwenkbar um eine Schwenkachse an dem GehƤuse gelagert. Dabei kann das FlƤchenelement aus der Betriebsstellung um die Schwenkachse nach unten geschwenkt werden. Dies erfolgt beispielsweise dann, wenn das FlƤchenelement von dem GehƤuse getrennt werden soll oder um das Innere des GehƤuses der Dunstabzugshaube zugƤnglich zu machen.Particularly preferably, the surface element is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis on the housing. In this case, the surface element can be pivoted out of the operating position about the pivot axis downwards. This is done, for example, when the surface element is to be separated from the housing or to make the interior of the housing of the hood accessible.
Es ist eine Lagerstelle fĆ¼r das FlƤchenelement vorgesehen, in der die Schwenkachse definiert ist. In der Lagerstelle ist das FlƤchenelement um die Schwenkachse schwenkbar gehalten. DarĆ¼ber hinaus ist die Lagerstelle derart ausgefĆ¼hrt, dass das FlƤchenelement aus der Lagerstelle gelƶst und damit vollstƤndig von der Dunstabzugshaube entfernt werden kann. Die Lagerstelle kann eine mƶgliche Schwenkbewegung des FlƤchenelements nach unten begrenzen, um ein unkontrolliertes nach unten Schwenken des FlƤchenelements zu verhindern. DarĆ¼ber hinaus stellt die Lagerstelle sicher, dass sich das FlƤchenelement nicht unbeabsichtigt aus der Lagerstelle lƶst, wodurch insbesondere ein Herunterfallen des FlƤchenelements verhindert wird.It is provided a bearing for the surface element in which the pivot axis is defined. In the bearing, the surface element is pivotally supported about the pivot axis. In addition, the bearing is designed so that the surface element can be released from the bearing and thus completely removed from the hood. The bearing can limit a possible pivoting movement of the surface element down to prevent uncontrolled downward pivoting of the surface element. In addition, the bearing ensures that the surface element does not accidentally come off the bearing, which in particular a fall of the surface element is prevented.
Die von der Verrieglungsvorrichtung und der Lagerstelle aufzunehmenden Drehmomente kƶnnen minimiert werden, indem die Verriegelungsvorrichtung von der Lagerstelle beabstandet angeordnet ist.The torques to be absorbed by the locking device and the bearing can be minimized by arranging the locking device at a distance from the bearing.
GemĆ¤Ć einer bevorzugten konstruktiven AusfĆ¼hrung weist der mindestens eine FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz zumindest eine erste EinfĆ¼hrschrƤge auf, mit der ein Versatz des Rastelements relativ zum Verschluss in eine erste Richtung, insbesondere in Richtung senkrecht zur Schwenkachse, ausgleichbar ist. Aufgabe der EinfĆ¼hrschrƤge ist es, ein EinfĆ¼hren des FĆ¼hrungsfortsatzes in die EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung trotz eines Versatzes des FlƤchenelements zu ermƶglichen. Im weiteren Verlauf der EinfĆ¼hrbewegung bewirkt die EinfĆ¼hrschrƤge ein Ausrichten des FlƤchenelements. Dieser Ausrichtvorgang ist abgeschlossen, bevor das Rastelement mit dem Verschluss in Kontakt tritt.According to a preferred structural design, the at least one guide extension has at least one first insertion bevel, with which an offset of the locking element relative to the closure in a first direction, in particular in the direction perpendicular to the pivot axis, can be compensated. The task of the insertion bevel is to allow insertion of the guide extension into the insertion opening despite an offset of the surface element. In the further course of the insertion movement, the insertion bevel causes an alignment of the surface element. This alignment process is completed before the locking element comes into contact with the closure.
Der FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz weist zumindest eine zweite EinfĆ¼hrschrƤge auf, mit der ein Versatz des Rastelements relativ zum Verschluss in eine zweite Richtung, insbesondere in Richtung parallel zur Schwenkachse, ausgleichbar ist. Die beiden EinfĆ¼hrschrƤgen befinden sich auf gleicher Hƶhe am FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz, so dass das FlƤchenelement wƤhrend einer Schwenkbewegung nach oben gleichzeitig in der ersten Richtung und in der zweiten Richtung ausgerichtet wird.The guide extension has at least one second insertion bevel, with which an offset of the locking element relative to the closure in a second direction, in particular in the direction parallel to the pivot axis, can be compensated. The two chamfers are at the same height on the guide extension, so that the surface element during a pivoting upward is aligned simultaneously in the first direction and in the second direction.
Mit besonderem Vorteil sind das Rastelement und der FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz von einem gemeinsamen Bauteil gebildet, welches vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff oder aus Aluminium ausgefĆ¼hrt ist. Das Rastelement und der mindestens eine FĆ¼hrungsfortsatz stehen dabei getrennt voneinander von einer gemeinsamen Basis hervor. Die AusfĆ¼hrung aus Kunststoff oder aus Aluminium ermƶglicht eine besonders einfache Herstellung, beispielsweise als Spritz- bzw. Druckgussteil.With particular advantage, the latching element and the guide extension are formed by a common component, which is preferably made of plastic or aluminum. The latching element and the at least one guide extension stand separately from each other from a common base. The execution of plastic or aluminum allows a particularly simple production, for example as a spray or diecasting.
Der Verschluss und die EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung sind von getrennten Bauteilen gebildet, die vorzugsweise miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Bauweise ermƶglicht, als Verschluss ein standardisiertes Zukaufteil zu verwenden, wƤhrend die EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung in einem GehƤuseteil der Dunstabzugshaube vorgesehen ist. Eine Verbindung der Bauteile der EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung und des Verschlusses stellt sicher, dass EinfĆ¼hrƶffnung und Verschluss relativ zueinander exakt positioniert sind.The closure and the insertion opening are formed by separate components, which are preferably connected to each other. This construction makes it possible to use a standardized purchased part as a closure, while the insertion opening is provided in a housing part of the extractor hood. A connection of the components of the insertion opening and the closure ensures that the insertion opening and closure are accurately positioned relative to each other.
