Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to an integrated range hood with a safety device, as defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the hood is a downdraft exhaust hood, i.e. a downward fume exhausting hood integrated in the cooktop.
  • downdraft exhaust range hoods i.e. downward fume exhausting hoods integrated in the cooktop, comprise a box-like housing oriented parallel to a vertical wall of the range base, with its opening located at the cooktop, through which the hood can be fitted in and pulled out.
  • the fume intake is conventionally located on the upper cross member of a frame, which is adapted to be displaced from a first position in which said intake is entirely within the housing and below the cooktop, and a second position in which it is located outside said housing and above the cooktop, in an operating fume exhaust position.
  • the fume intake conventionally communicates with the interior of said box-like housing, which also contains means for evacuating and eliminating the fumes.
  • motor means are provided for displacement of said frame within the housing, these means comprising, for instance, a mechanical or hydraulic jack whose stem is fixed to one point of a cross member of the frame and is actuated by an electric motor in either displacement direction.
  • a worktop is sometimes associated with said cross member of said frame, above the intake, and has a contour that extends beyond the contour that delimits the cross member, coinciding, for instance, with additional lateral tops, which are designed to increase the useful surface of the worktop.
  • a portion of the operator's hand e.g. one finger, may be trapped below the worktop, between the projecting contour of the top and the edge of the housing opening of the hood frame.
  • the downward displacement of the hood continues at least until the conventional energy absorption sensor, associated with the electric motor, is triggered as it detects a stress exceeding a predetermined maximum value, cuts off power to the motor, and reverses the direction of rotation to cause the hood to move upwards.
  • the motor is stopped and its direction is reversed, thereby releasing the finger trapped below the worktop, only upon reaching an energy absorption level that is necessarily higher, through slightly, than the energy absorption associated with a regular up and down motion of the hood imposed by the overall weight of the frame and the elements connected thereto.
  • the torque sensors of the electric motor must be triggered to stop the downward movement of the hood an release the hand.
  • the invention has the object of providing a downdraft range hood that can solve the problems of the above discussed prior art.
  • a downdraft range hood can be provided that can limit the possible injury caused when a finger or hand of a user is accidentally pinched as the hood fits into the housing.
  • a downdraft range hood can be provided that affords the same safety level as prior art arrangements, but is more reliable and less expensive.
  • numeral 1 designates the housing for moving a frame 1A of a downdraft domestic hood 1B, which may be either a filter or an extractor hood, i.e. a downward fume-exhausting hoods integrated in the cooktop.
  • This housing 1 is defined by the side walls 2 and 3, the bottom 4 and a top opening 5.
  • the housing is conventionally oriented parallel to a vertical wall of the base of a range, the latter being of conventional type and not shown, and having a cooktop that may coincide with the plane of the opening 5 of the housing 1 although, in one alternative, such opening may be located higher than the conventional plane of the cooktop with the burners.
  • the housing 1 is oriented parallel to the rear of the base of the range.
  • the frame 1A of the integrated hood 1B comprises the vertical columns 6 and 7, resting upon the walls 2 and 3 of the housing 1, which also act as guides for the columns, as well as an upper cross member 8 with a mainly longitudinally extending fume intake 9.
  • the opening 9 communicates with the interior of the housing 1 from which fumes are evacuated and eliminated from the range, using conventional suction means, generally referenced 10.
  • the frame 1B of the hood also has an intermediate beam 11 having the end 12 of a hydraulic or mechanical jack 13, actuated, for instance, by an electric motor 14, connected thereto.
  • a hydraulic or mechanical jack 13 actuated, for instance, by an electric motor 14, connected thereto.
  • Such jack is equipped, as is known in the art, by a torque sensor or an implement for measuring the absorbed power, such that its operation may be stopped and its direction of rotation may be possibly reversed as a predetermined absorption value is exceeded.
  • a worktop, referenced 15, is associated with the cross member 8, and may be either at the same level as the cooktop or at a higher level.
  • the worktop 15 is embodied by the range top and defines a surface that is parallel to the walkway plane upon which the range is operatively placed.
  • Shelves 16 and 17 may be provided in the hood of the invention, at the sides of the worktop 15, and be attached outside the vertical walls 2 and 3 of the housing 1 respectively, at the same level as the top 15 when the hood is in its lowered position, with the frame retracted in the housing 1.
  • the worktop 15 is connected to the cross member 8 with the interposition of disconnection means 19, 24, which are configured to provide separation to a predetermined extent between the worktop 15 and the cross member 8.
  • This separation between the worktop 15 and the cross member 8 will ensure safety of the user, as it will prevent pinching of an obstacle, e.g. a finger of a user, below the top 15.
  • an obstacle e.g. a finger of a user
  • the disconnection means 19, 24 comprise:
  • the worktop 15 comprises at least one hole 20 formed in the cross member 8 and aligned with the element 19 that extends there through in axially sliding fashion.
  • rod-like element 19 is removably connected to the surface 18 of the top 15, e.g. with the interposition of a glue and/or another mechanical connecting arrangement.
  • the top 15 is embodied by a rectangular element whose thickness is smaller than the width and length dimensions.
  • a material that may constitute this worktop 15 is, for instance, glass, steel or other materials.
  • a rod-like element 19 is attached to the bottom surface 18 of the top 15, and extends perpendicular to said surface toward the opening 5 of the housing 1, and extends through the hole 20 formed in the cross member 8 of the hood frame.
  • the free end 21 of the rod-like element 19 is equipped with the abutment 22 in the form of a plate, against which the end 23 of the elastic member 24 coaxially located on the rod-like element 19 engages.
  • the other end 25 of the elastic member 24 reacts against the cross member 8 around the hole 20.
  • the length of the elastic member 25 and its elastic properties are selected in view of ensuring an elastic separation, to a predetermined extent, of the top 15 from the cross member 8, if an obstacle, e.g. a finger of a user, is placed below the top 15, in its contour portion 15A that projects out of the contour of the cross member 8 and beyond the edge 5A of the opening 5 of the housing 1, as the hood is lowered.
  • an obstacle e.g. a finger of a user
  • the elastic member 24 consists of a spring.
  • the extent to which the worktop 15 is elastically separated from the cross member 8, as set by the dimensions of the spring 24 and those of the rod-like element 19 during displacement of the hood frame, will generate an elastic reaction in the spring that is equal to a predetermined fraction of the overall weight on the jack 13 and the motor 14 which ensure the displacement of said frame in the housing.
  • this fraction is smaller than 5%, preferably smaller than 3%, more preferably smaller than 1% the weight of the hood 1, which is conventionally about 8 to 10 kg.
  • the pair of such rod-like elements 19 and elastic members 24, i.e. the springs, are located proximate to a respective end of the worktop 15 in aligned and parallel relationship.
  • the integrated hood of the invention comprises elastic members 26, e.g. a spring, located at the end of each column 6 and 7 of the hood frame, as an extension thereof toward the bottom 4 of the housing 1.
  • elastic members 26 e.g. a spring
  • Each spring 26 is fixed by its end 27 to its respective column by means of a cantilever support 28, which is rigidly joined to the column, and a screw 29.
  • the physical and elastic properties of the spring 26 are selected in view of balancing at least 20% the overall weight of the hood frame (which is known to range from 8 to 10 kg) at the end of the movement by which it fits into the housing 1.
  • connection between the motor 14 and the hood frame, when the motor is not powered, is deemed to be reversible (due to the clearance between the jack and the driving rod), to thereby allow the frame to move by gravity and the springs 26 to be deformed.
  • the compressive deformation of the springs 26 and their elastic load may be obtained by allowing the motor 14 to run an additional number of revolutions after those required and calculated to only move the ends 30 of the springs 26 to contact with the bottom 4 of the housing 1.
  • the springs 26 undergo an axial deformation, as shown for instance in Figure 7 , to impart a thrust to the columns 6 and 7 which is equal to at least 20% the overall weight of the frame and the members connected thereto.
  • the motor 14 is stopped and the hood frame is still in the position it has reached, with the springs 26 in the deformed state.
  • this position of the hood frame shall correspond to an exact position of the cross member 8 within the opening 5.
