Bei der Lüftungseinrichtung kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Tischlüfter handeln, der dazu ausgeformt ist, als Luftstrom einen während eines Kochvorgangs entstehenden Wrasen abzusaugen. Die Abluftleitung kann beispielsweise eine Einzugsöffnung aufweisen, die benachbart zu oder angrenzend an das Kochfeld angeordnet ist. Die Einzugsöffnung kann auch als Teil der Lüftungseinrichtung ausgeformt sein. Die Abluftleitung kann beispielsweise an die Einzugsöffnung und zusätzlich oder alternativ an die Lüftungseinrichtung anschließend angeordnet sein. Die Abluftleitung kann beispielsweise abschnittsweise entlang einer einer Wand des Küchenraums zugewandten Seite des Möbels verlaufen. Die Umlufteinrichtung kann beispielsweise in der Abluftleitung oder in dem Sockelinnenraum anordenbar sein. Bei dem Feuchtigkeitsadsorber kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Aktivkohlefilter handeln, der eine besonders hohe Feuchtigkeitsaufnahmeleistung und zusätzlich oder alternativ eine besonders hohe Feuchtigkeitsabgabeneigung aufweist. Dazu kann der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber beispielsweise als Sorptionsfilter mit einer durch eine sehr hohe chemische Aktivierung entstehenden offenporigen, makroporösen Struktur ausgeformt sein.The furniture can be, for example, a kitchen cabinet in which the hob can be installed. The hob can be arranged, for example, in an upper section of the kitchen cabinet. The ventilation device can be, for example, a table-top ventilator which is designed to suck off vapor that is generated during a cooking process as an air stream. The exhaust air line can, for example, have an intake opening which is arranged adjacent to or adjacent to the hob. The intake opening can also be formed as part of the ventilation device. The exhaust air line can, for example, be arranged adjacent to the intake opening and additionally or alternatively to the ventilation device. The exhaust air line can, for example, run in sections along a side of the piece of furniture facing a wall of the kitchen space. The air circulation device can be arranged, for example, in the exhaust air line or in the base interior. The moisture adsorber can be, for example, an activated carbon filter which has a particularly high moisture absorption capacity and, additionally or alternatively, a particularly high tendency to give off moisture. The moisture adsorber can do this, for example be designed as a sorption filter with an open-pored, macroporous structure resulting from a very high level of chemical activation.
Gemäß der Erfindung weist die Abluftleitung einen ersten Leitungsabschnitt auf, der ausgeformt ist, den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu leiten. Zudem kann die Abluftleitung einen zweiten Leitungsabschnitt aufweisen, der ausgeformt ist, den Luftstrom zu einem Auslassspalt in der Sockelleiste zu leiten. Der erste Leitungsabschnitt und zusätzlich oder alternativ der zweite Leitungsabschnitt können eine Krümmung zum Vorbeileiten des Luftstroms an einer Ecke des Möbels aufweisen. Vorteilhafterweise kann der Luftstrom auf diese Weise platzsparend geleitet und schnell und effizient ausgeleitet werden. Zudem ermöglicht diese Ausführungsform eine kompakte Bauweise der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung.According to the invention, the exhaust air line has a first line section which is shaped to guide the air flow out of the area surrounding the hob. In addition, the exhaust air line can have a second line section which is shaped to guide the air flow to an outlet gap in the skirting board. The first line section and, additionally or alternatively, the second line section can have a curvature for the air flow to bypass a corner of the piece of furniture. In this way, the air flow can advantageously be guided in a space-saving manner and can be discharged quickly and efficiently. In addition, this embodiment enables a compact design of the extractor hood device.
Der zweite Leitungsabschnitt kann gemäß einer Ausführungsform rohrförmig ausgeformt sein. Alternativ kann der zweite Leitungsabschnitt als Umlenkelement zur Verbesserung des Lenkens des Luftstroms zu dem Auslassspalt in der Sockelleiste ausgeformt sein. Bei dem Umlenkelement kann es sich beispielsweise um ein Umlenkblech handeln, oder um einen aus Kunststoff ausgeformten Leitungsabschnitt der Abluftleitung. Vorteilhafterweise kann der Luftstrom durch den rohrförmigen zweiten Leitungsabschnitt oder durch das Umlenkelement besonders effizient zum Auslassspalt der Sockelleiste gelenkt werden.According to one embodiment, the second line section can be tubular. Alternatively, the second line section can be formed as a deflection element to improve the directing of the air flow to the outlet gap in the skirting board. The deflection element can be, for example, a deflection plate or a line section of the exhaust air line formed from plastic. The air flow can advantageously be directed particularly efficiently through the tubular second line section or through the deflecting element to the outlet gap of the skirting board.
Die Umlufteinrichtung kann gemäß einer Ausführungsform stromabwärts des ersten Leitungsabschnitts oder stromabwärts des zweiten Leitungsabschnitts angeordnet ist. Wenn die Umlufteinrichtung stromabwärts des ersten Leitungsabschnitts angeordnet ist, kann die Umlufteinrichtung beispielweise zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Leitungsabschnitt angeordnet sein. Stromabwärts des zweiten Leitungsabschnitts kann die Umlufteinrichtung in dem Sockelinnenraum angeordnet sein. Die Anordnung der Umlufteinrichtung kann beispielsweise in Abhängigkeit einer Ausformung des Möbels erfolgen, oder in Abhängigkeit einer Stellweise des Möbels in dem Küchenraum, was vorteilhafterweise eine kompakte Bauweise des Möbels und der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung ermöglicht.According to one embodiment, the air circulation device can be arranged downstream of the first line section or downstream of the second line section. If the air circulation device is arranged downstream of the first line section, the air circulation device can be arranged, for example, between the first and the second line section. The air circulation device can be arranged in the base interior downstream of the second line section. The air circulation device can be arranged, for example, as a function of the shape of the piece of furniture, or as a function of the way in which the piece of furniture is positioned in the kitchen, which advantageously enables a compact design of the piece of furniture and the extractor device.
Zudem kann die Umlufteinrichtung gemäß einer Ausführungsform den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber umfassen. Dazu kann der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber beispielsweise benachbart zu dem Geruchsfilter in einem Gehäuse der Umlufteinrichtung angeordnet sein. Diese Ausführungsform ermöglicht vorteilhafterweise eine besonders effiziente Führung des Luftstroms. Generell können Umlufteinrichtung und Feuchtigkeitsadsorber bezüglich des Luftstroms in Reihe angeordnet sein. Ist der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber der Umlufteinrichtung, insbesondere dem Fettfilter und/oder dem Geruchsfilter nachgeschaltet, so kann beispielsweise eine Verschmutzung des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers unterdrückt werden. Erfindungsgemäß weist die Dunstabzugsvorrichtung eine Sensoreinrichtung und eine Steuereinrichtung auf. Die Sensoreinrichtung kann ausgebildet sein, eine Luftfeuchtigkeit und zusätzlich oder alternativ eine Temperatur zu sensieren. Die Sensoreinrichtung kann beispielsweise einen Luftfeuchtigkeitssensor umfassen. Die Sensoreinrichtung ist ausgebildet, ein Sensorsignal bereitzustellen, das die Luftfeuchtigkeit und zusätzlich oder alternativ die Temperatur abbildet. Beispielsweise kann das Sensorsignal eine relative Luftfeuchtigkeit abbilden. Die Steuereinrichtung ist ausgebildet sein, unter Verwendung des Sensorsignals ein Steuersignal zum Ansteuern der Lüftungseinrichtung bereitzustellen.In addition, according to one embodiment, the circulating air device can comprise the moisture adsorber. For this purpose, the moisture adsorber can be arranged, for example, adjacent to the odor filter in a housing of the circulating air device. This embodiment advantageously enables particularly efficient guidance of the air flow. In general, the air circulation device and moisture adsorber can be arranged in series with respect to the air flow. If the moisture adsorber is connected downstream of the circulating air device, in particular the grease filter and / or the odor filter, then, for example, contamination of the moisture adsorber can be suppressed. According to the invention, the extractor device has a sensor device and a control device. The sensor device can be designed to sense air humidity and additionally or alternatively a temperature. The sensor device can include, for example, an air humidity sensor. The sensor device is designed to provide a sensor signal that maps the humidity and additionally or alternatively the temperature. For example, the sensor signal can map a relative humidity. The control device is designed to provide a control signal for controlling the ventilation device using the sensor signal.
Die Steuereinrichtung kann beispielsweise ausgebildet sein, abhängig von einem Wert des Sensorsignals das Steuersignal zum Aktivieren oder Deaktivieren der Luftungseinrichtung bereitzustellen, oder das Steuersignal Kann ausgebildet sein, eine Luftungsleistung der Luftungseinrichtung einzustellen. Vorteillhafterweise Kann die Luftungseinrichtung mittels der Sensoreinrichtung una aer Steuereinrichtung nach Bedan automatisch betrieben werden, ohne einen Eingriff eines Benutzers erforderlich zu machen, was ein besonders effizientes und dadurch energiesparendes Betreiben der Lüftungseinrichtung ermöglicht.The control device can, for example, be designed to provide the control signal for activating or deactivating the ventilation device as a function of a value of the sensor signal, or the control signal can be designed to set a ventilation output of the ventilation device. Advantageously, the ventilation device can be operated automatically by means of the sensor device and a control device according to Bedan, without requiring intervention by a user, which enables particularly efficient and thus energy-saving operation of the ventilation device.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Steuereinrichtung dazu ausgebildet, abhängig von einem Wert des Sensorsignals das Steuersignal zum Betreiben der Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Trockenmodus zum Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers bereitzustellen. Der Trockenmodus kann beispielsweise nach dem Kochvorgang erfolgen. In dem Trockenmodus kann die Lüftungseinrichtung beispielsweise eine geringere Gebläseleistung aufweisen als beim Absaugen eines Luftstroms oder Wrasens in einem Abzugsmodus während des Kochvorgangs. Das Steuersignal zum Betreiben der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Trockenmodus kann beispielsweise bereitgestellt werden, wenn der Wfert des Sensorsignals ein Erreichen oder Unterschreiten eines vordefinierten Grenzwertes der Luftfeuchtigkeit anzeigt, der beispielsweise einer vor dem Starten des Kochvorgangs sensierten Luftfeuchtigkeit entspricht. Der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber kann durch das Trocknen mittels der Lüftungseinrichtung vorteilhafterweise für einen nachfolgenden Kochvorgang regeneriert werden. Mit diesem Ansatz wird zudem ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer Ausführungsform der vorstehend genannten Dunstabzugsvorrichtung vorgestellt. Das Verfahren weist zumindest einen Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Abzugsmodus und einen Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Trockenmodus auf. Im Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Abzugsmodus wird die Lüftungseinrichtung aktiviert, um während eines Kochvorgangs entstehenden Wrasen als den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu dem Sockelinnenraum zu leiten. Im Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Trockenmodus wird die Lüftungseinrichtung aktiviert, um nach dem Kochvorgang Raumluft als den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu dem Sockelinnenraum zu leiten, um den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber zu trocknen. Vorteilhafterweise kann die Lüftungseinrichtung somit sowohl zum Absaugen eines Luftstroms, beispielsweise eines Wrasen, verwendet werden, als auch zum Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers. Zudem kann beim Aktivieren vorteilhafterweise die Lüftungsleitung der Lüftungseinrichtung entsprechend dem Abzugsmodus oder dem Trockenmodus eingestellt sein.According to the invention, the control device is designed to provide the control signal for operating the ventilation device in a drying mode for drying the moisture adsorber as a function of a value of the sensor signal. The drying mode can, for example, take place after the cooking process. In the dry mode, the ventilation device can, for example, have a lower fan power than when sucking off an air stream or vapors in an extraction mode during the cooking process. The control signal for operating the ventilation device in dry mode can be provided, for example, when the value of the sensor signal indicates that the humidity has reached or fallen below a predefined limit value, which corresponds, for example, to humidity sensed before starting the cooking process. The moisture adsorber can advantageously be regenerated for a subsequent cooking process by drying by means of the ventilation device. With this approach, a method for operating an embodiment of the above-mentioned extractor device is also presented. The method has at least one step of activating the ventilation device in an extraction mode and one step of activating the ventilation device in a dry mode. In the step of activating the ventilation device in the extraction mode, the ventilation device is activated in order to guide vapors generated during a cooking process as the air flow from the area surrounding the hob to the base interior. In the step of activating the ventilation device in the dry mode, the ventilation device activated to guide room air as the air flow from the area surrounding the hob to the base interior after the cooking process in order to dry the moisture adsorber. The ventilation device can thus advantageously be used both for sucking off an air stream, for example a vapor, and for drying the moisture adsorber. In addition, during activation, the ventilation line of the ventilation device can advantageously be set in accordance with the extraction mode or the dry mode.
Das Verfahren kann gemäß einer Ausführungsform zudem einen Schritt des Deaktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung nach dem Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Abzugsmodus und vor dem Schritt des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Trockenmodus umfassen. Vorteilhafterweise ist es gemäß dieser Ausführungsform möglich, den Trockenmodus erst zu aktivieren, wenn zum Trocknen geeignete Luft zur Verfügung steht, beispielsweise nach dem Kochvorgang, oder sobald die Luftfeuchtigkeit nach Beenden des Kochvorgangs einen bestimmten Grenzwert erreicht hat.According to one embodiment, the method can also include a step of deactivating the ventilation device after the step of activating the ventilation device in the extraction mode and before the step of activating the ventilation device in the dry mode. According to this embodiment, it is advantageously possible to activate the drying mode only when suitable air is available for drying, for example after the cooking process, or as soon as the air humidity has reached a certain limit value after the cooking process has ended.
Es wird zudem ein Möbel mit einem in das Möbel eingebauten Kochfeld und mit einem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorstehend genannten Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, die in dem Möbel eingebaut ist, vorgestellt. Auch mittels dieser Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe vorteilhaft gelöst werden.A piece of furniture is also presented with a hob built into the piece of furniture and with an exemplary embodiment of the above-mentioned extractor device that is built into the piece of furniture.

In der nachfolgenden Beschreibung günstiger Ausführungsbeispiele des vorliegenden Ansatzes werden für die in den verschiedenen Figuren dargestellten und ähnlich wirkenden Elemente gleiche oder ähnliche Bezugszeichen verwendet, wobei auf eine wiederholte Beschreibung dieser Elemente verzichtet wird.In the following description of advantageous exemplary embodiments of the present approach, identical or similar reference numerals are used for the elements shown in the various figures and having a similar effect, a repeated description of these elements being dispensed with.
Die Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105 umfasst eine Abluftleitung 120, eine Lüftungseinrichtung 125, eine Umlufteinrichtung 130 und einen Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135. Die Abluftleitung 120 ist dazu ausgeformt, einen Luftstrom aus einem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu dem Sockelinnenraum 115 zu leiten. Gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel mündet die Abluftleitung 120 in den Sockelinnenraum 115, sodass der Luftstrom in den Sockelinnenraum 115 hinaus austritt. Die Lüftungseinrichtung 125 ist dazu ausgebildet, den Luftstrom durch die Abluftleitung 120 zu fördern. Die Umlufteinrichtung 130 weist einen Geruchsfilter 140 zum Reinigen des Luftstroms auf. Der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 ist dazu ausgebildet ist, dem Luftstrom Feuchtigkeit zu entziehen.The
Gemäß dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel umfasst die Umlufteinrichtung 130 den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135. Der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 ist beispielhaft benachbart zu dem Geruchsfilter 140 in der Umlufteinrichtung 130 angeordnet. Dabei ist der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 dem Geruchsfilter 140 in Bezug auf eine Strömungsrichtung des Luftstroms vorgeschaltet. Die Lüftungseinrichtung 125 ist beispielhaft als Tischlüfter ausgeführt und entsprechend dazu ausgebildet, den Luftstrom, beispielsweise während eines Kochvorgangs entstehende Wrasen, anzusaugen. In dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel leitet die Abluftleitung 120 den Luftstrom durch die Umlufteinrichtung 130 und damit durch den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 und zur Geruchsbindung durch den Geruchsfilter 140 in den Sockelinnenraum 115. Alternativ kann die Lüftungseinrichtung 125 an einer anderen geeigneten Position, beispielsweise innerhalb der Abluftleitung 120, angeordnet sein.According to the exemplary embodiment shown here, the
Die Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105 weist gemäß dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel zudem eine optionale Sensoreinrichtung 145 und eine optionale Steuereinrichtung 150 auf. Die Sensoreinrichtung 145 ist ausgebildet, eine Luftfeuchtigkeit und zusätzlich oder alternativ eine Temperatur zu sensieren. Zudem ist die Sensoreinrichtung 145 ausgebildet, ein Sensorsignal 155 bereitzustellen, das die Luftfeuchtigkeit und zusätzlich oder alternativ die Temperatur abbildet. Die Steuereinrichtung 150 ist dazu ausgebildet, unter Verwendung des Sensorsignals 155 ein Steuersignal 160 zum Ansteuern der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 bereitzustellen. Ein Sensorbereich der Sensoreinrichtung 145 kann beispielsweise in dem Möbel 100, in einer Umgebung des Möbels 100 und innerhalb der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105, beispielsweise innerhalb der Abluftleitung 120 liegen.According to the exemplary embodiment shown here, the
Ferner ist die Steuereinrichtung 150 gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel dazu ausgebildet, abhängig von einem Wert des Sensorsignals 155 das Steuersignal 160 zum Betreiben der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 in einem Trockenmodus zum Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 bereitzustellen. Das Steuersignal 160 wird beispielsweise beim Erreichen oder Unterschreiten eines vorbestimmten Werts der Luftfeuchtigkeit und zusätzlich oder alternativ der Temperatur zum Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 bereitgestellt. Dadurch kann beispielsweise erst dann mit einem Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 begonnen werden, wenn das Steuersignal 160 anzeigt, das die zum Trocknen des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 angesaugte Luft ausreichend trocken ist.Furthermore, according to an exemplary embodiment, the
Bei dem Leiten des Luftstroms durch das Möbel 100 kommt es durch die Verwendung des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 vorteilhafterweise nicht zu einer Kondensation von Feuchtigkeit des aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds geleiteten Luftstroms, wodurch eine Schädigung des Möbels 100, beispielsweise durch Quellschäden oder sich ablösenden Umleimer, verhindert werden kann. Mittels der hier gezeigten Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105 werden Feuchtigkeitsspitzen, die durch den Kochvorgang entstehen, auf physikalische Werte, bei denen es in bewohnten Räumen nicht zur Kondensation des Wasserdampfs kommt, reduziert.When the air flow is directed through the
Der eingesetzte Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 wird gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel nach dem Kochprozess wieder getrocknet, wenn sich durch den Luftwechsel und die anschließende Konditionierung der Raumluft die vor dem Kochprozess herrschende Luftfeuchtigkeit wieder eingestellt hat. Dies erfolgt hier mittels des Steuersignals 160 unter Verwendung des Sensorsignals 155. Bei der Trocknung des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 übersteigt die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit hinter dem Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 auf Grund der Adsorptionskinematik des eingesetzten Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 niemals Werte, die zu Feuchtigkeitsschäden an dem Möbel 100 führen können. Außerdem ermöglicht ein Nachlauf der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 nach abgeschlossener Trocknung des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135, dass sich in dem Inneren des Möbels die gleichen physikalischen Bedingungen wie in der Küche, also der Umgebung des Möbels 100 einstellen. Dazu sensiert ein Luftfeuchtigkeitssensor der Sensoreinrichtung 145 in der Küche die Temperatur und die Luftfeuchtigkeit, wodurch der Zeitpunkt erkannt wird, zu dem ein Gebläse der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 im Trockenmodus in kleiner Luftleistung zur Trocknung des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 eingeschaltet wird. Im Schrankinneren des Möbels 100 stellen sich durch einen Gebläsenachlauf der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 die gleichen physikalischen Bedingungen wie in der Küche ein. Für den nächsten Kochvorgang steht anschließend wieder ein trockener Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 zur Verfügung.According to one exemplary embodiment, the
Mittels der hier gezeigten Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105 ist es möglich, die Luftführung noch innerhalb des Möbels 100 zu beenden, ohne dabei Langzeitschäden durch Feuchtigkeit zu riskieren, durch ein Einstellen der gleichen physikalischen Bedingungen in dem Inneren des Möbels 100 wie in der Küche. Die Feuchtigkeitsbindung der Luftfeuchtigkeit des Luftstroms steht dauerhaft zur Verfügung, weil der Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 nach jedem Kochvorgang getrocknet wird. Dabei ist der Installationsaufwand der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105 gegenüber der Variante, bei der die Luft aus dem Möbel 100 heraus geführt wird, reduziert. Im Vergleich zu der Luftführung aus dem Möbel 100 heraus ergeben sich hier zudem eine geringere Ausströmgeschwindigkeit und geringere Strömungsgeräusche beim Leiten des Luftstroms mittels der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung 105. Ohne die Verwendung des Feuchtigkeitsabsorbers 135 würde feuchte Luft aus dem Möbel 100 herausgeleitet, wobei der Installationsaufwand höher ist, weil die Verrohrung an der Schrankrückwand herunter und auf dem Fußboden im Schranksockel bis zum gewünschten Ausblasfenster ausgeführt werden muss. Vorteilhafterweise kann durch das Verwenden des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 eine am Ausblasfenster auftretende hohe Ausströmgeschwindigkeit, die wiederum zu Zuglufterscheinungen oder erhöhten Strömungsgeräuschen führen kann, vermieden werden.By means of the
Die Abluftleitung 120 weist gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel einen ersten Leitungsabschnitt 220 auf, der ausgeformt ist, den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu leiten. Zudem weist die Abluftleitung 120 einen zweiten Leitungsabschnitt 225 auf, der ausgeformt ist, den Luftstrom zu einem Auslassspalt 230 in der Sockelleiste 110 zu leiten. Der erste Leitungsabschnitt 220 und zusätzlich oder alternativ der zweite Leitungsabschnitt 225 weisen eine Krümmung zum Vorbeileiten des Luftstroms an einer Ecke des Möbels 100 auf. Der Luftstrom wird in dem ersten Leitungsabschnitt 225 durch die Krümmung umgelenkt, wie der Pfeil 205 zeigt. Dabei wird der Luftstrom von der Lüftungseinrichtung 125 durch den ersten Leitungsabschnitt 225 zu der Umlufteinrichtung 130 geleitet. Der Luftstrom wird dann durch den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber 135 und durch den Geruchsfilter 140 in den zweiten Leitungsabschnitt 225 geleitet, wie der Pfeil 210 zeigt. Der zweite Leitungsabschnitt 210 mündet in den Sockelinnenraum 115. Aus dem Sockelinnenraum 115 wird der Luftstrom durch den Auslasspalt 230 in der Sockelleiste hindurch ausgeleitet.According to one exemplary embodiment, the
Der zweite Leitungsabschnitt 225 ist in dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel als Umlenkelement zur Verbesserung des Lenkens des Luftstroms zu dem Auslassspalt 230 in der Sockelleiste 110 ausgeformt. Gemäß einem alternativen Ausführungsbeispiel ist der zweite Leitungsabschnitt 225 rohrförmig ausgeformt, wie anhand der nachfolgenden
Die Umlufteinrichtung 130 ist gemäß dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel stromabwärts des ersten Leitungsabschnitts 220 angeordnet. Alternativ kann die Umlufteinrichtung auch stromabwärts des zweiten Leitungsabschnitts 225 angeordnet sein, wie anhand der nachfolgenden
Gemäß dem hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel wird der Luftstrom aus dem Möbel 100 in den Küchenraum geleitet. Dabei wird dem Luftstrom mittels des Feuchtigkeitsadsorbers 135 Luftfeuchtigkeit entzogen. Dadurch wird vorteilhafterweise verhindert, dass Luftfeuchtigkeit im Inneren des Möbels 100 an den Oberflächen kondensiert und Schäden verursacht.According to the exemplary embodiment shown here, the air flow is directed from the
Das Verfahren 700 weist zumindest einen Schritt 705 des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung in einem Abzugsmodus und einen Schritt 710 des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Trockenmodus auf. Beim Aktivieren der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung wird beispielsweise ein Propeller der Lüftungseinrichtung in Drehung versetzt.The
Im Schritt 705 wird die Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Abzugsmodus aktiviert, um während eines Kochvorgangs entstehenden Wrasen als den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu dem Sockelinnenraum zu leiten. Im Schritt 710 wird die Lüftungseinrichtung in einem Trockenmodus aktiviert, um nach dem Kochvorgang Raumluft als den Luftstrom aus dem Umgebungsbereich des Kochfelds zu dem Sockelinnenraum zu leiten, um den Feuchtigkeitsadsorber zu trocknen. Im Abzugsmodus kann die Lüftungseinrichtung eine höhere Lüftungsleistung als im Trockenmodus aufweisen.In
Gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel umfasst das Verfahren 700 zudem einen Schritt 715 des Deaktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung nach dem Schritt 705 des Aktivierens der Lüftungseinrichtung in dem Abzugsmodus. Der Schritt 715 wird optional nach dem Schritt 705 und vor dem Schritt 710 ausgeführt. Der Schritt 715 wird optional ausgeführt, um den Trockenmodus der Lüftungsvorrichtung erst zu aktivieren, wenn zum Trocknen geeignete Luft zur Verfügung steht, beispielsweise nach dem Kochvorgang, oder sobald die Luftfeuchtigkeit einen bestimmten Grenzwert erreicht hat. Auf diese Weise kann die Lüftungseinrichtung nach Beenden des Betriebs der Lüftungseinrichtung im Abzugsmodus eine Zeitlang nicht aktiv sein, bevor die Lüftungseinrichtung im Schritt 710 erneut aktiviert wird.According to one embodiment, the
Mittels eines Ausführungsbeispiels des Verfahrens 700 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Dunstabzugsvorrichtung, wie sie anhand der vorhergehenden Figuren beschrieben wurde, betreibbar.By means of an exemplary embodiment of the
Umfasst ein Ausführungsbeispiel eine "und/oder"-Verknüpfung zwischen einem ersten Merkmal und einem zweiten Merkmal, so ist dies so zu lesen, dass das Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß einer Ausführungsform sowohl das erste Merkmal als auch das zweite Merkmal und gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform entweder nur das erste Merkmal oder nur das zweite Merkmal aufweist.If an exemplary embodiment comprises a “and / or” link between a first feature and a second feature, this is to be read in such a way that the exemplary embodiment according to one embodiment includes both the first feature and the second feature and, according to a further embodiment, either only the has the first feature or only the second feature.
