Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fume extractor hood according to the preamble of claim 1 and a ventilation system according to claim 7. Further, the invention relates to a method for operating a fume extractor hood according to claim 11.
  • Fume extractor hoods with exhaust air operation will guide the captured air to the outside.
  • the unpleasant odors are removed efficiently, but warm air is wasted through the exhausting duct.
  • the air captured by the extractor hood is cleaned by a cleaning device and led back directly to the kitchen. Heated air within the kitchen is not wasted, but the performance of recirculation extractor hoods strongly depends on the capability of the cleaning devices, which decrease over the time. Additionally, the moisture content of the air is not reduced.
  • a fume extractor hood which comprises a switching device for switching between an exhaust air operation and a circulation air operation in dependence on the outside temperature.
  • the circulation air operation is preferred to avoid that warm air is removed from the room and replaced by cold air, which has to be heated to room temperature resulting in higher energy costs.
  • a further fume extractor hood which can be operated in exhaust and/or recirculation air operation.
  • This fume extractor hood comprises a control unit and an air guiding system for switching between exhaust and recirculation air operation, wherein the flow rate is reduced in the recirculation air operation.
  • the noise level in recirculation air operation is significantly higher compared to the exhaust air operation.
  • a reduced flow rate minimizes the noise during recirculation air operation.
  • the odor collecting capability depends on a high flow rate, so that with a reduced flow rate the odor nuisance increases.
  • EP 1 180 648 A1 discloses a fume extractor hood comprising an exhaust duct and a separated recirculation compartment therefrom, which is closable by a cover in case the hub is inactive. During cooking, the cover to the recirculation compartment is removed and a filter element is moved to the opening to the recirculation compartment.
  • EP 2 570 735 A1 discloses a fume extractor hood with a cleaning device connected to an air ducting, wherein the cleaning device comprises a plasma source.
  • the air ducting comprises a junction to the cleaning device with an internal air guiding element, which allows the setting of at least three different modes in the active mode of the fume extractor hood.
  • DE 30 40 051 A1 relates to a vapour exhaust hood control system that involves a control of exhaust and fresh air ratio by regulating a blower volume and/or speed.
  • EP 0 033 547 A1 relates to an outlet branch of a damp extracting hood for the optional connection of the connecting pipe of the damp extracting hood to a circulating air connection and an outgoing air connection.
  • DE 34 04 004 A1 discloses an air outlet and inlet device for a cooker in a closed space wherein a vapour extractor hood which is arranged above the cooker and in which an additional fan is arranged which produces a curtain of air which is directed from the vapour extractor hood down to the cooker.
  • a vapour extractor hood which is arranged above the cooker and in which an additional fan is arranged which produces a curtain of air which is directed from the vapour extractor hood down to the cooker.
  • air circulating in the kitchen or filtered exhaust air which is allowed in via an adjustable opening in the air inlet tract, can also be used to form the curtain of air.
  • EP 1 899 652 A1 discloses a device in the form of a recycling motorized hood and an air extracting conduit designed to be connected to a controlled mechanical ventilation installation.
  • the hood communicates through an opening with the extraction conduit.
  • Another air intake is provided which emerges into the conduit. Said air intake is closed and the opening is free when the hood fan is operating, and inversely when the fan is off.
  • WO 93/13881 A1 relates to a ventilation system comprising a central fan to provide basic ventilation in one or more rooms in a building, and at least one range hood for sucking up cooking odors, said range hoods being connected via a kitchen flue to the central fan.
  • the fume extractor hoods in a block building or similar are in connection with a central ventilation unit and do not have a motor within the fume extractor hood.
  • the necessary air flow is provided by a central ventilation unit in this case and the odor reduction during cooking is achieved by adjusting the damper to the central ventilation unit.
  • these fume extractor hoods can have external air guiding elements, which are arranged at the circumference of the extractor hood and improve the odor reduction capability by guiding the captured air.
  • these external air guiding elements can influence the headroom and can have also an aesthetically disturbing effect.
  • the fume extractor hood comprises, as known in the prior art, a flow generator for providing a forced flow in an active mode of the flow generator, an exhaust duct for guiding an exhaust flow, a cleaning device for cleaning a recirculation flow, and a splitting device for splitting the forced flow in the exhaust flow and the recirculation flow.
  • the splitting device in the active mode, is in a first fixed state with (i.e., defining) a first opening area to the exhaust duct so that the forced flow is split in the exhaust flow and the recirculation flow through the cleaning device and the splitting device is in a second fixed state with a second opening area to the exhaust duct in a passive mode, in which the flow generator is inactive, for preventing the recirculation flow and for allowing a basic flow.
  • splitting device With the splitting device in said first fixed state in the active mode, a constant reduction of unpleasant odors of the captured air by means of the forced flow with a high flow rate is achieved due to the exhaust flow while the lifetime of the cleaning device is prolongated compared to pure recirculation hoods.
  • a splitting of the forced flow is achieved without any additional air guiding elements within the extractor hood for the recirculation flow and the exhaust flow, apart from the splitting device itself, so that space requirement within the extractor hood is reduced. Further, the forced flow is always kept at a high flow rate, which is important for capturing unpleasant odors. Additionally, also external air guiding elements can be omitted without effecting the odor reduction capability.
  • the kitchen or room can thus be ventilated in the passive mode through the fume extractor hood for a better indoor climate.
  • the splitting device is a mechanical device and comprises at least one flap and/or one slider and/or one plate and/or one fin, which is movable for setting the first opening area and second opening area.

  • the exhaust flow in the active mode is at least 1.2 cubic meters per minute or more.
  • a minimum exhaust flow rate in the active mode guarantees a continuous and significant odor reduction in the kitchen or room independent of the current state of the cleaning device. This will also prolong the life of the cleaning device.
  • an air duct for at least partially guiding the forced flow is arranged within the extractor hood, wherein the air duct is at least partially enclosed by the cleaning device so that the recirculation flow can leave the air duct into the cleaning device through at least one opening.
  • the air duct has the function of guiding the air within the extractor hood, especially of guiding the forced flow. Additionally, the air duct has at least one opening, through which the recirculation flow enters the cleaning device. This allows a compact design of the extractor hood with a minimum on duct length for guiding the air flows within the extractor hood.

  • the air inlet devices provide enough fresh air to avoid a low pressure in the house or building, in particular during functioning of the extractor hood.
  • control unit is arranged at or on the extractor hood so that the user can switch on the system easily. Additionally, the control unit can also activate and deactivate a flow generator or fan within and/or outside the extractor hood or a damper for supplying additional air.
