Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Dunstabzugshaube mit einem Lüftergehäuse und einem Beschlagteil als Befestigungsvorrichtung zum Einbau in einen Hängeschrank.The present invention relates to an extractor hood with a fan housing and a fitting part as a fastening device for installation in a wall cabinet.

Dunstabzugshauben werden von Herstellern von elektrischen Haushaltsgeräten produziert und geliefert. Damit sie in Küchen verwendet werden können, müssen sie noch in die Küchenmöbel, üblicherweise Hängeschränke, eingebaut werden. Das kann schon bei der Herstellung der Hängeschränke erfolgen. Meistens werden die Dunstabzugshauben aber erst vor Ort in die Hängeschränke eingebaut, weil dadurch die Aufhängung, Positionierung und Befestigung der Hängeschränke beim Montieren der Küche in einem Küchenraum durch die bessere Zugänglichkeit des Innenraums des Hängeschranks erleichtert ist.Extractor hoods are produced and supplied by manufacturers of electrical household appliances. So that they can be used in kitchens, they still have to be built into the kitchen furniture, usually wall units. This can be done during the manufacture of the wall cupboards. Most of the time, the extractor hoods are only installed in the wall cabinets on site, because this makes it easier to hang, position and fasten the wall cabinets when installing the kitchen in a kitchen room, thanks to the better accessibility of the interior of the wall cabinet.

Der Einbau einer Dunstabzugshaube in einen Hängeschrank erweist sich allerdings als schwierig, weil der Rahmen der kompletten Dunstabzugshaube die Grundfläche des Hängeschranks nach unten hin üblicherweise vollständig überdeckt und somit der Innenraum des Hängeschranks von unter nicht mehr zugänglich ist, wenn sich die Dunstabzugshaube in ihrer Einbauposition befindet. Deshalb werden die Dunstabzugshauben üblicherweise mehrteilig mit zumindest einem Grundrahmen und während des Einbaus zu montierenden Befestigungs- und Abdeckelementen angeliefert, damit der Grundrahmen noch während des Einbaus zugänglich ist.The installation of an extractor hood in a wall cabinet proves to be difficult, however, because the frame of the complete extractor hood usually completely covers the base of the wall cabinet towards the bottom and thus the interior of the wall cabinet is no longer accessible from below when the extractor hood is in its installed position . Therefore, the extractor hoods are usually delivered in several parts with at least one base frame and fastening and cover elements to be mounted during installation so that the base frame is still accessible during installation.

Um die Dunstabzugshaube im Hängeschrank befestigen zu können, werden Beschlagteile verwendet, die eine Verbindung der Dunstabzugshaube mit dem Hängeschrank ermöglichen. Um die Dunstabzugshaube sicher zu befestigen, werden üblicherweise Blechwinkel verwendet, von denen einer in jeder Ecke des Hängeschranks mit dem Hängeschrank verschraubt wird. Die Positionierung und Befestigung der Blechwinkel ist fehleranfällig und zeitaufwendig. Nach der Montage der Blechwinkel wird die Dunstabzugshaube mit den Blechwinkeln verschraubt. Das ist mühsam, weil die Dunstabzugshaube während der Verschraubung mit den Blechwinkeln in der Einbaulage gehalten werden muss. Fehler bei der Montage der Blechwinkel werden häufig erst dann entdeckt, so dass die Dunstabzugshaube zunächst wieder entfernt, die fehlerhaft montierten Blechwinkel ab-, wieder neu angebaut und danach die Dunstabzugshaube wieder in Position gebracht werden müssen.In order to be able to fasten the extractor hood in the wall cabinet, fittings are used that enable the cooker hood to be connected to the wall cabinet. To securely attach the extractor hood, sheet metal brackets are usually used, one of which is screwed to the wall cabinet in each corner of the wall cabinet. The positioning and fastening of the sheet metal angles is error-prone and time-consuming. After installing the sheet metal bracket, the extractor hood is screwed to the sheet metal bracket. This is tedious because the extractor hood has to be held in the installation position while it is screwed to the sheet metal angles. Error when assembling the Sheet metal angles are often only discovered then, so that the extractor hood must first be removed again, the incorrectly assembled sheet metal angles removed, re-attached and then the extractor hood put back into position.

US 2008/0302352 A1 offenbart eine Abzugshaube, die ein Gehäuse mit einer Vorderwand, einer Rückwand, zwei gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden, einer oberen Wand und einem offenen Boden. US 2008/0302352 A1 discloses an extractor hood having a housing having a front wall, a rear wall, two opposing side walls, a top wall and an open bottom.

Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, den Einbau einer Dunstabzugshaube in einen Hängeschrank zu erleichtern.It is the object of the present invention to facilitate the installation of an extractor hood in a wall cabinet.

Die Aufgabe wird für eine gattungsgemäße Dunstabzugshaube gelöst, indem als Beschlagteil zur Verbindung der Dunstabzugshaube mit dem Hängeschrank ein Rahmenelement verwendet ist, das Rahmenelement zwei ersten Rahmenabschnitte mit einer vertikalen Anlagefläche zur Anlage und Befestigung an einer Seitenwand des Hängeschranks und einen zweiten das Lüftergehäuse in der Einbaulage der Dunstabzugshaube bereichsweise übergreifenden Rahmenabschnitt, der eine horizontale Anlagefläche zur Anlage an das Lüftergehäuse und/oder einen Boden des Hängeschranks ausbildet, als auch zwei schräg verlaufende Verbindungsabschnitte aufweist, wobei die beiden ersten Rahmenabschnitte mit dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt verbunden sind, die beiden Verbindungsabschnitte spiegelsymmetrisch zueinander jeweils zwischen einem ersten und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt angeordnet sind, in das Rahmenelement die Dunstabzugshaube mit zwei Haken eingehakt ist, am Rahmenelement eine Hakenaufnahme in einem jeden der beiden Verbindungsabschnitte ausgebildet ist, am Lüftergehäuse ein zur Hakenaufnahme korrespondierender Haken angeordnet ist und der Haken einen Endbereich aufweist, der durch die Hakenaufnahme greift, und wobei die Hakenaufnahmen zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt ausgebildet sind.The object is achieved for a generic extractor hood in that a frame element is used as the fitting part for connecting the extractor hood to the wall cabinet, the frame element has two first frame sections with a vertical contact surface for contact and attachment to a side wall of the wall cabinet and a second the fan housing in the installation position the extractor hood in areas overlapping frame section, which forms a horizontal contact surface for contact with the fan housing and / or a floor of the wall cabinet, as well as two inclined connecting sections, the two first frame sections are connected to the second frame section, the two connecting sections are mirror-symmetrical to each other are arranged between a first and the second frame section, in the frame element the extractor hood is hooked with two hooks, on the frame element a hook receptacle in each of the two connections ngsabschnitt is formed, a hook corresponding to the hook receptacle is arranged on the fan housing and the hook has an end region which engages through the hook receptacle, and wherein the hook receptacles are formed between the first and the second frame section.

Das Rahmenelement kann als ein einzelnes Bauteil ausreichend fest ausgeführt sein, um daran während des Einbaus die gesamte Dunstabzugshaube aufzuhängen. Ein oder zwei Rahmenelemente können schnell und leicht in dem Hängeschrank befestigt werden. Der Hängeschrank ist auch noch frei von Einbauten, so dass darin alles gut zugänglich ist. Somit ist es möglich, für den Einbau nur noch ein einziges oder zwei Beschlagteile im Hängeschrank zu verwenden. Da die Dunstabzugshaube während des Einbaus an dem Rahmenelement mit dem oder den Haken aufgehängt wird, muss die Montageperson die Dunstabzugshaube nicht mehr halten, während die endgültige Verbindung mit dem Hängeschrank hergestellt wird. Die Montageperson hat nach dem Einhängen des oder der Haken beide Hände frei, um die restliche Befestigung zu erledigen. Auch die Ausrichtung der Dunstabzugshaube ist viel leichter und schneller zu erledigen, wenn diese an dem oder den Haken hängt und nur noch mit geringen Verschiebungen in ihre endgültige Position geschoben zu werden braucht.The frame element can be designed as a single component with sufficient strength to hang the entire extractor hood thereon during installation. One or two frame elements can be quickly and easily attached to the wall cabinet. The hanging cabinet is also free of built-in components so that everything is easily accessible. This makes it possible to use only one or two fittings in the wall cabinet for installation. Since the extractor hood is hung on the frame element with the hook or hooks during installation, the assembly person no longer has to hold the extractor hood while the final connection to the wall cabinet is made. After attaching the hook or hooks, the assembly person has both hands free to do the rest of the fastening. The alignment of the extractor hood is also much easier and quicker to do if it is hanging on the hook or hooks and only needs to be pushed into its final position with slight movements.

Wenn vorstehend von einem Haken und einer Hakenaufnahme die Rede ist, so sind diese Begriffe nicht auf ihren engen technischen Bedeutungsgehalt beschränkt. Anstelle eines Hakens kann auch ein sonstiges Eingriffsmittel verwendet werden, das zumindest teilweise in die Aufnahme eingreift und darüber die Dunstabzugshaube hält. Das Eingriffsmittel und die Aufnahme stellen daher sonstige Befestigungselemente einer Befestigungsvorrichtung dar. Als Aufnahme können erfindungsgemäß auch beispielsweise Vertiefungen, Öffnungen, Schlitze, Ausschnitte, Aussparungen und Durchlässe genutzt werden. Als Eingriffsmittel werden beispielsweise auch Vorsprünge, Rastnasen, Klemmlaschen, Arme und bewegliche Zungen verstanden. Die Eingriffsmittel können allein durch Schwerkraft in ihrer Haltestellung verbleiben, es sind aber auch andere Befestigungstechniken wie beispielsweise Klemmverbindungen, Rastverbindungen oder Clipsverbindungen möglich. Das Eingriffsmittel einer Befestigungsvorrichtung greift zumindest teilweise in die Aufnahme der Befestigungsvorrichtung ein. Es liegt aber auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass das Eingriffsmittel durch die Aufnahme hindurchragt und gegebenenfalls über diese übersteht.When a hook and a hook receptacle are mentioned above, these terms are not restricted to their narrow technical meaning. Instead of a hook, some other engagement means can also be used, which at least partially engages in the receptacle and above it holds the extractor hood. The engagement means and the receptacle therefore represent other fastening elements of a fastening device. According to the invention, depressions, openings, slots, cutouts, recesses and passages, for example, can also be used as receptacles. As engagement means, for example, projections, detents, clamping lugs, arms and movable tongues are also understood. The engagement means can remain in their holding position solely by gravity, but other fastening techniques such as clamping connections, latching connections or clip connections are also possible. The engagement means of a fastening device at least partially engages in the receptacle of the fastening device. However, it is also within the scope of the invention that the engagement means protrudes through the receptacle and, if necessary, protrudes beyond it.

Durch das Rahmenelement ist die Teilezahl, die zur Montage der Dunstabzugshaube notwendig ist, verringert. Auch die Zahl der zur Befestigung benötigter Schrauben und der damit zusammenhängende Montageaufwand sind verringert. Da der oder die Haken in das Rahmenelement eingehängt werden, erfolgt die erste Verbindung der Dunstabzugshaube mit dem Rahmenelement durch ein einfaches Einführen, Einstecken, Einschieben und/oder Verschwenken des oder der Haken in die Hakenaufnahme. Auch dadurch wird die Montage weiter vereinfacht. Insbesondere kann die Dunstabzugshaube durch die Haken beispielsweise in einer ersten Position gehalten werden, während die endgültige Befestigung im Hängeschrank durch weitere Befestigungsmittel nach dem Einhängen der Dunstabzugshaube in die Hakenaufnahme erfolgt. So kann die Dunstabzugshaube beispielsweise mit Schrauben endgültig am Rahmenelement und/oder am Hängeschrank festgeschraubt werden. Dabei kann die Dunstabzugshaube in eine zweite Position verbracht werden, in der sie nicht oder nicht vollständig von dem oder den Haken gehalten ist. Dies ist aber in keiner Weise nachteilig. Schließlich ist der Einbau der Dunstabzugshaube vereinfacht, da durch das Rahmenelement das Risiko einer falschen Montage verringert ist.The frame element reduces the number of parts required to assemble the extractor hood. The number of screws required for fastening and the associated assembly effort are also reduced. Since the hook or hooks are hooked into the frame element, the first connection of the extractor hood to the frame element is made by simply inserting, plugging, pushing and / or pivoting the hook or hooks into the hook holder. This also continues the assembly simplified. In particular, the extractor hood can be held in a first position, for example, by the hooks, while the final fastening in the hanging cabinet takes place by further fastening means after the extractor hood has been hung in the hook holder. For example, the extractor hood can be permanently screwed to the frame element and / or to the wall cabinet with screws. The extractor hood can be brought into a second position in which it is not or not completely held by the hook or hooks. However, this is in no way disadvantageous. Finally, the installation of the extractor hood is simplified because the frame element reduces the risk of incorrect installation.

Erfindungsgemäß bildet der zweite Rahmenabschnitt eine horizontale Anlagefläche zur Anlage an das Lüftergehäuse und/oder einen Boden des Hängeschranks aus. Durch die horizontale Anlagefläche ergibt sich eine genauere Ausrichtung und Positionierung des Lüftergehäuses im Innenraum des Hängeschranks.According to the invention, the second frame section forms a horizontal contact surface for contact with the fan housing and / or a floor of the wall cabinet. The horizontal contact surface results in a more precise alignment and positioning of the fan housing in the interior of the wall cabinet.

Das Rahmenelement erstreckt sich über die gesamte Innenbreite des Hängeschanks von einer Seitenwand zur gegenüberliegenden Seitenwand. Bei einer Erstreckung über die gesamte Innenbreite des Hängeschrankes kann das Rahmenelement gut an seinen beiden Endseiten abgestützt werden. Das Risiko einer Fehlmontage ist dadurch weiter vermindert. Vorzugsweise kann das Rahmenelement mit mindestens zwei ersten Rahmenabschnitten mit jeweils einer vertikalen Anlagefläche am Hängeschrank abgestützt werden. Die mindestens zwei ersten, bevorzugt genau zwei ersten Rahmenelemente sind im Wesentlichen, bevorzugt genau, senkrecht zu dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt ausgebildet.The frame element extends over the entire inside width of the hanging cabinet from one side wall to the opposite side wall. When extending over the entire inside width of the wall cabinet, the frame element can be supported well on both of its end sides. This further reduces the risk of incorrect assembly. The frame element can preferably be supported on the wall cabinet with at least two first frame sections, each with a vertical contact surface. The at least two first, preferably exactly two first frame elements are designed essentially, preferably precisely, perpendicular to the second frame section.

Der Begriff "im Wesentlichen" gibt einen Toleranzbereich an, der für den Fachmann unter wirtschaftlichen und technischen Gesichtspunkten zu vertreten ist, so dass das entsprechende Merkmal noch als solches zu erkennen oder verwirklicht ist.The term “essentially” indicates a tolerance range that is justifiable for the person skilled in the art from an economic and technical point of view, so that the corresponding feature can still be recognized as such or implemented.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Rahmenelement eine bogenartig verlaufende Form auf. Dies ist für eine gute Kraftverteilung innerhalb des Rahmenelements vorteilhaft. Die bogenartige Form wird geschaffen, indem ein flaches Blech mehrfach gekantet wird, so dass sich zwei seitliche in der Einbaulage in vertikaler Richtung erstreckende Schenkel, zumindest zwei schräg verlaufende Traversen und ein mittiger, horizontal verlaufender Schenkel ergeben. Durch die bogenartige Form wird die Außenkontur der Dunstabzugshaube umfasst.According to the invention, the frame element has an arcuate shape. This is advantageous for a good distribution of forces within the frame element. The arch-like shape is created by folding a flat sheet of metal several times so that two result in lateral legs extending in the vertical direction in the installation position, at least two obliquely extending cross members and a central, horizontally extending leg. The outer contour of the extractor hood is encompassed by the arch-like shape.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Rahmenelement zwischen dem mindestens einen ersten Rahmenabschnitt mit der vertikalen Anlagefläche und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt mit der horizontalen Anlagefläche mindestens einen schräg verlaufenden Verbindungsabschnitt auf. Vorzugsweise weisen bei dieser bevorzugten Ausführungsform der mindestens eine erste Rahmenabschnitt und der zweite Rahmenabschnitt zueinander einen Innenwinkel α von etwa 90° auf, wobei bevorzugt mindestens zwei, weiter bevorzugt genau zwei erste Rahmenabschnitte vorgesehen sind. Sind genau zwei erste Rahmenabschnitte vorgesehen, sind genau zwei Verbindungsabschnitte jeweils zwischen den beiden ersten und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt angeordnet, wobei erfindungsgemäß die beiden Verbindungsabschnitte spiegelsymmetrisch zueinander jeweils zwischen einem ersten und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt angeordnet sind.According to the invention, the frame element has at least one obliquely running connecting section between the at least one first frame section with the vertical contact surface and the second frame section with the horizontal contact surface. In this preferred embodiment, the at least one first frame section and the second frame section preferably have an interior angle α of approximately 90 ° to one another, with preferably at least two, more preferably exactly two first frame sections being provided. If exactly two first frame sections are provided, exactly two connection sections are each arranged between the two first and second frame sections, wherein according to the invention the two connection sections are arranged mirror-symmetrically to each other between a first and second frame section.

Wird im Rahmen der Erfindung der Begriff "etwa" im Zusammenhang mit Werten oder Wertebereichen verwendet, so ist darunter ein Toleranzbereich zu verstehen, den der Fachmann auf diesem Gebiet für üblich erachtet. Insbesondere ist ein Toleranzbereich von ±20 %, bevorzugt von ±10 % und weiter bevorzugt von ±5 % vorgesehen.If, within the scope of the invention, the term “approximately” is used in connection with values or value ranges, this is to be understood as a tolerance range which the person skilled in the art in this field considers to be common. In particular, a tolerance range of ± 20%, preferably of ± 10% and more preferably of ± 5% is provided.

Nach einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist das Rahmenelement einen zweiten Rahmenabschnitt, mindestens zwei Verbindungsabschnitte und mindestens zwei erste Rahmenabschnitte auf. Vorzugsweise bilden der zweite Rahmenabschnitt und zwei Verbindungsabschnitte in einer Seitenansicht drei Seiten eines Trapezes und bevorzugt eines gleichschenkligen Trapezes, wobei eine vierte und fehlende Seite als eine Grundseite des Trapezes zu ergänzen wäre.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame element has a second frame section, at least two connecting sections and at least two first frame sections. In a side view, the second frame section and two connecting sections preferably form three sides of a trapezoid and preferably an isosceles trapezoid, a fourth and missing side having to be added as a base side of the trapezoid.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weisen der erste Rahmenabschnitt und der Verbindungsabschnitt zueinander einen Innenwinkel γ auf, der bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 95° bis etwa 175°, weiter bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 120° bis etwa 160°und besonders bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 135° bis etwa 145° liegt.According to one embodiment of the invention, the first frame section and the connecting section have an interior angle γ to one another, which is preferably in a range of approximately 95 ° to about 175 °, more preferably in a range from about 120 ° to about 160 ° and particularly preferably in a range from about 135 ° to about 145 °.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weisen der zweite Rahmenabschnitt und der Verbindungsabschnitt zueinander einen Innenwinkel β auf, der bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 95° bis etwa 175°, weiter bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 110° bis etwa 140° und besonders bevorzugt in einem Bereich von etwa 125° bis etwa 135° liegt.According to one embodiment of the invention, the second frame section and the connecting section have an internal angle β to one another, which is preferably in a range from approximately 95 ° to approximately 175 °, more preferably in a range from approximately 110 ° to approximately 140 ° and particularly preferably in one Range from about 125 ° to about 135 °.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die Hakenaufnahmen zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt ausgebildet. Zur Ausbildung der Hakenaufnahmen eignet sich dieser Bereich besonders, weil die Hakenaufnahmen dann einen Abstand zur jeweiligen Seitenwand haben, wodurch der Haken leichter eingehakt werden kann, aber auch noch ein ausreichender Abstand zum mittleren Bereich des Hängeschrank-Innenraums besteht, so dass das Gewicht der Dunstabzugshaube in Querrichtung des Hängeschranks mit einer geringeren Hebelwirkung und einer besseren Balance eingeleitet werden kann. Vorzugsweise ist die Hakenaufnahme auf oder in dem mindestens einen Verbindungsabschnitt ausgebildet.According to one embodiment of the invention, the hook receptacles are formed between the first and the second frame section. This area is particularly suitable for forming the hook mounts because the hook mounts are then at a distance from the respective side wall, which means that the hook can be hooked in more easily, but there is also a sufficient distance to the central area of the interior of the wall cabinet so that the weight of the extractor hood is retained can be initiated in the transverse direction of the wall cabinet with less leverage and better balance. The hook receptacle is preferably formed on or in the at least one connecting section.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist das Rahmenelement auf seiner Unter- oder Oberseite Versteifungsrippen auf. Durch die Versteifungsrippen wird die Festigkeit des Rahmenelements erhöht. Bei einer Ausführung des Rahmenelements als Blechteil können die Versteifungsrippen auch als seitliche Abkantungen ausgeführt werden.According to one embodiment of the invention, the frame element has stiffening ribs on its lower or upper side. The stiffening ribs increase the strength of the frame element. If the frame element is designed as a sheet metal part, the stiffening ribs can also be designed as lateral folds.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die Hakenaufnahmen als Ausnehmungen im Rahmenelement ausgebildet, die eine größere Breite aufweisen als die Haken. Durch die größere Breite ist es möglich, die in der Hakenaufnahme hängende Dunstabzugshaube in Querrichtung mit den Haken zu verschieben, um die Dunstabzugshaube genau unter dem Hängeschrank auszurichten. Dadurch muss das Rahmenelement nicht millimetergenau im Hängeschrank positioniert werden. Erfindungsgemäß sind die Haken, die mit der Hakenaufnahme korrespondieren, derart ausgebildet, dass ein Endbereich des Hakens durch die Hakenaufnahme greift. Der Endbereich des Hakens, der durch die Hakenaufnahme greift, ragt vorzugsweise durch die Hakenaufnahme hindurch und legt sich mit einer Innenfläche an eine Außenseite des Rahmenelements, bevorzugt an den Verbindungsabschnitt desselben, an. Vorzugsweise erstrecken sich die Innenfläche des Endbereichs und zumindest die Außenseite des Rahmenelements in einer Seitenansicht des Rahmenelements parallel zu einander, weiter bevorzugt liegt der Endbereich des Hakens mit zumindest einem Teilbereich seiner Innenfläche, bevorzugt im Wesentlichen vollflächig, an der Außenseite des Rahmenelementes, weiter bevorzugt des Verbindungsabschnitts, an. Hierdurch können die über das zu montierende Lüftergehäuse bei Einsatz des Lüftergehäuses angreifenden Kräfte optimal auf das Rahmenelement, insbesondere gleichmäßig, übertragen werden.According to one embodiment of the invention, the hook receptacles are designed as recesses in the frame element which have a greater width than the hooks. Due to the larger width, it is possible to move the extractor hood hanging in the hook holder in the transverse direction with the hook in order to align the extractor hood exactly under the wall cabinet. This means that the frame element does not have to be positioned in the wall cabinet with millimeter precision. According to the invention, the hooks that correspond to the hook receptacle are designed in such a way that an end region of the hook engages through the hook receptacle. The end region of the hook that engages through the hook receptacle preferably protrudes through the hook receptacle and rests with an inner surface on one Outside of the frame element, preferably on the connecting portion of the same. The inner surface of the end area and at least the outer side of the frame element preferably extend parallel to each other in a side view of the frame element, more preferably the end area of the hook lies with at least a partial area of its inner surface, preferably essentially over the entire surface, on the outer side of the frame element, more preferably the Connection section. As a result, the forces acting via the fan housing to be mounted when the fan housing is used can be optimally transmitted to the frame element, in particular evenly.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung befindet sich am ersten Rahmenabschnitt eine Befestigungsleiste, zu der das Rahmenelement in horizontaler Richtung verschiebbar ist. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung muss nur die Befestigungsleiste mit der zugehörigen Seitenwand des Hängeschranks verbunden werden. Eine präzise Positionierung und Ausrichtung des Rahmenabschnitts bei der Montage ist nicht erforderlich, da der Rahmenabschnitt nach der Befestigung der Befestigungsleiste noch in einer Ebene verschoben werden kann. Die Befestigungsleiste kann beispielsweise ein nach oben offenes U-Profil sein, in das das Fußteil des ersten Rahmenabschnitts eingestellt wird.According to one embodiment of the invention, there is a fastening strip on the first frame section, to which the frame element can be displaced in the horizontal direction. With this configuration, only the fastening strip has to be connected to the associated side wall of the wall cabinet. Precise positioning and alignment of the frame section during assembly is not necessary, since the frame section can still be displaced in one plane after the fastening strip has been fastened. The fastening strip can for example be an upwardly open U-profile into which the foot part of the first frame section is set.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist der zweite Rahmenabschnitt eine Durchlassöffnung zur Aufnahme des Abluftstutzens der Dunstabzugshaube auf. Beim Einbau der Dunstabzugshaube kann das Lüftergehäuse mit dem Abluftstutzen in die Durchlassöffnung eingeschoben werden. Dadurch wird das Lüftergehäuse beim Einbau zusätzlich zentriert und ausgerichtet. Das ist insbesondere möglich, wenn der Innendurchmesser der Durchlassöffnung und der Außendurchmesser des Abluftstutzens spielfrei oder sogar mit einem leichten Untermaß aufeinander abgestimmt sind, so dass sich nach dem Einschieben des Abluftstutzens in die Durchlassöffnung ein fester Sitz des Lüftergehäuses in der Durchlassöffnung einstellt.According to one embodiment of the invention, the second frame section has a passage opening for receiving the exhaust air connector of the extractor hood. When installing the extractor hood, the fan housing with the exhaust air nozzle can be pushed into the passage opening. As a result, the fan housing is also centered and aligned during installation. This is particularly possible if the inside diameter of the passage opening and the outside diameter of the exhaust air connector are matched to one another without play or even with a slight undersize, so that after the exhaust air connector has been pushed into the passage opening, the fan housing is firmly seated in the passage opening.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind im Lüftergehäuse und/oder im Rahmenelement Schraublöcher zur Verschraubung des Lüftergehäuses mit dem Rahmenelement ausgebildet.According to one embodiment of the invention, screw holes for screwing the fan housing to the frame element are formed in the fan housing and / or in the frame element.

Die Schraublöcher und eventuell zusätzlich vorhandene Schraubkanäle erleichtern die endgültige Verschraubung des Lüftergehäuses mit dem Rahmenelement.The screw holes and any additional screw channels that may be present facilitate the final screw connection of the fan housing to the frame element.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Ansprüchen, den Figuren und der Figurenbeschreibung.Further features of the invention emerge from the claims, the figures and the description of the figures.

Die Erfindung wird nun anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels sowie unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen näher erläutert.The invention will now be explained in more detail using a preferred embodiment and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  • Fig. 4 : a detailed view of the hook holder Fig. 1 .

In Fig. 1 ist eine Dunstabzugshaube 2 in einem Zusammenbau mit einem Rahmenelement 4 dargestellt. Das Rahmenelement 4 weist zwei erste Rahmenabschnitte 6 auf, die dazu bestimmt sind, sich mit einer vertikalen Anlagefläche 12 an die Seitenwand des zugehörigen Hängeschranks anzulegen. Das Rahmenelement 4 verfügt des Weiteren über einen zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 8, der das Lüftergehäuse in der Einbaulage der Dunstabzugshaube 2 bereichsweise übergreift. Der zweite Rahmenabschnitt 8 bildet eine horizontale Anlagefläche 10 aus. Diese kann an einen Boden des Hängeschranks oder an das Lüftergehäuse der Dunstabzugshaube 2 angelegt werden. Weiter weist das Rahmenelement 4 zwei schräg verlaufende Verbindungsabschnitte 7 auf, die die beiden ersten Rahmenabschnitte 6 mit dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 8 verbinden.In Fig. 1 an extractor hood 2 is shown in an assembly with a frame element 4. The frame element 4 has two first frame sections 6, which are intended to rest with a vertical contact surface 12 on the side wall of the associated hanging cabinet. The frame element 4 also has a second frame section 8, which in the installation position of the extractor hood 2 overlaps the fan housing in areas. The second frame section 8 forms a horizontal contact surface 10. This can be attached to the floor of the wall cabinet or to the fan housing of the extractor hood 2 can be created. The frame element 4 also has two obliquely running connecting sections 7 which connect the two first frame sections 6 to the second frame section 8.

Am Rahmenelement 4 ist eine Hakenaufnahme 14 ausgebildet, die im Ausführungsbeispiel aus einer Ausnehmung besteht, die im Verbindungsabschnitt 7 des Rahmenelements 4 ausgebildet ist. Im Ausführungsbeispiel befindet sich hier ein gekanteter Schenkel, der auch als Verbindungsabschnitt 7 angesprochen werden kann, der den ersten Rahmenabschnitt 6 mit dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 8 verbindet. Durch die beiden ersten Rahmenabschnitte 6, die beiden schräg verlaufenden Verbindungsabschnitte 7 sowie dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 8 weist das Rahmenelement 4 in der stirnseitigen Ansicht einen annähernd bogenartigen Verlauf auf. Die Form des Bogens ist dabei so gewählt, dass das Rahmenelement 4 die Dunstabzugshaube 2 von oben her mit dem Bogen zumindest bereichsweise überdeckt, wobei sich das Rahmenelement 4 über die Innenbreite des Hängeschranks von einer Seitenwand zur gegenüberliegenden Seitenwand erstreckt.A hook receptacle 14 is formed on the frame element 4, which in the exemplary embodiment consists of a recess that is formed in the connecting section 7 of the frame element 4. In the exemplary embodiment there is an edged leg here, which can also be referred to as a connecting section 7, which connects the first frame section 6 to the second frame section 8. As a result of the two first frame sections 6, the two obliquely running connecting sections 7 and the second frame section 8, the frame element 4 has an approximately arc-like course in the front view. The shape of the arch is chosen so that the frame element 4 covers the extractor hood 2 from above with the arch at least in some areas, the frame element 4 extending over the inside width of the wall cabinet from one side wall to the opposite side wall.

In das Rahmenelement 4 ist die Dunstabzugshaube 2 mit zwei Haken 16 eingehakt. Die Haken 16 weisen jeweils einen Endbereich 17 auf, der durch die Hakenaufnahmen 14 greift. Zumindest bei der Montage wird die Dunstabzugshaube 2 von den Haken 16 gehalten. Nachdem die Haken 16 in die Hakenaufnahmen 14 eingehakt worden sind, ist es möglich, die Dunstabzugshaube 2 zusätzlich mit dem Rahmenelement 4 zu verschrauben oder auf sonstige Weise zu verbinden. Dabei kann es sein, dass die Haken 16 aus der Hakenaufnahme 14 ausgehoben werden. In jedem Fall ist die Montage durch das Einhaken der Dunstabzugshaube 2 in das Rahmenelement 4 wesentlich vereinfacht.The extractor hood 2 is hooked into the frame element 4 with two hooks 16. The hooks 16 each have an end region 17 which engages through the hook receptacles 14. At least during assembly, the extractor hood 2 is held by the hooks 16. After the hooks 16 have been hooked into the hook receptacles 14, it is possible to additionally screw the extractor hood 2 to the frame element 4 or to connect it in some other way. It can be the case that the hooks 16 are lifted out of the hook holder 14. In any case, the assembly is considerably simplified by hooking the extractor hood 2 into the frame element 4.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel verfügt das Rahmenelement 4 auch über eine Versteifungsrippe 18, die als stirnseitige Abkantung der einzelnen Schenkel des Rahmenelements 4 hergestellt ist.In the exemplary embodiment, the frame element 4 also has a stiffening rib 18 which is produced as an end-side bevel of the individual legs of the frame element 4.

Im Bereich der horizontalen Anlagenfläche 10 weist das Rahmenelement 4 eine Durchlassöffnung 20 auf. Durch die Durchlassöffnung 20 kann der Abluftstutzen der Dunstabzugshaube 2 oder ein entsprechendes Abluftrohr hindurchgeführt werden.In the area of the horizontal contact surface 10, the frame element 4 has a passage opening 20. The exhaust air connector of the extractor hood 2 or a corresponding exhaust air pipe can be passed through the passage opening 20.

Sowohl im Rahmenelement 4 als auch in dem Lüftergehäuse der Dunstabzugshaube 2 können sich Schraublöcher 22 befinden, die eine Schraubverbindung zwischen dem Rahmenelement 4 und dem Abluftgehäuse ermöglichen. Die Schraublöcher 22 sind vorteilhaft so miteinander abgestimmt, dass die Schraublöcher 22 in der Einbaustellung der Dunstabzugshaube 2 relativ zum Rahmenelement 4 genau passend stehen, um eine Schraube einschrauben zu können.There may be screw holes 22 both in the frame element 4 and in the fan housing of the extractor hood 2, which allow a screw connection between the frame element 4 and the exhaust air housing. The screw holes 22 are advantageously coordinated with one another in such a way that the screw holes 22 are exactly fitting relative to the frame element 4 in the installation position of the extractor hood 2 so that a screw can be screwed in.

In Fig. 2 ist eine Ansicht des Rahmenelements 4 gezeigt. In der Darstellung ist gut erkennbar, dass das Rahmenelement 4 durch die zwei ersten Rahmenabschnitte 6, die zwei Verbindungsabschnitte 7 und dem zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 8 eine bogenartige Form aufweist.In Fig. 2 a view of the frame element 4 is shown. In the illustration it can be clearly seen that the frame element 4 has an arc-like shape due to the two first frame sections 6, the two connecting sections 7 and the second frame section 8.

In Fig. 3 ist eine Seitenansicht des Rahmenelements 4 und der Dunstabzugshaube 2 gezeigt, die kurz davor sind, miteinander verbunden zu werden. Die Haken 16 und deren Endbereiche 17 sind als eine Art federnde Laschen ausgebildet, die sich beim Einschieben der Haken 16 in das Rahmenelement 4 leicht nach innen verbiegen können, bis die Endbereiche 17 in die Hakenaufnahmen 14 ausfedern können.In Fig. 3 is a side view of the frame member 4 and the extractor hood 2 shown, which are about to be connected to each other. The hooks 16 and their end regions 17 are designed as a type of resilient tabs which can bend slightly inward when the hooks 16 are pushed into the frame element 4 until the end regions 17 can rebound into the hook receptacles 14.

Des Weiteren ist Fig. 3 eine Winkligkeit der ersten und zweiten Rahmenabschnitte 6 und 8 und den Verbindungsabschnitten 7 zu entnehmen. Die ersten Rahmenabschnitte 6 und der zweite Rahmenabschnitt 8 weisen zueinander einen Innenwinkel α von 90° auf. Der zweite Rahmenabschnitt 8 und der Verbindungsabschnitt 7 weisen zueinander einen Innenwinkel β von etwa 129° auf. Der erste Rahmenabschnitt 6 und der Verbindungsabschnitt 7 weisen zueinander einen Innenwinkel γ von etwa 141° auf.Furthermore is Fig. 3 an angularity of the first and second frame sections 6 and 8 and the connecting sections 7 can be seen. The first frame sections 6 and the second frame section 8 have an interior angle α of 90 ° to one another. The second frame section 8 and the connecting section 7 have an interior angle β of approximately 129 ° to one another. The first frame section 6 and the connecting section 7 have an interior angle γ of approximately 141 ° to one another.

Um die Bedienung zu vereinfachen, ist es möglich, dass die Hakenaufnahmen 14 als Ausnehmungen im Rahmenelement 4 eine größere Breite aufweisen können als die Haken 16 mit ihren Endbereichen 17. Dieses ist in der Fig. 4 erkennbar, die eine vergrößerte Detailansicht des Kreises A der Hakenaufnahme 14 aus Fig. 1 zeigt. In dieser Position des Hakens 16 greift der Endbereich 17 derart durch die Hakenausnehmung 14, so dass sich eine Innenfläche des Endbereichs 17 parallel zu einer Außenseite des Rahmenelements 4 erstreckt und auf dieser zu einer im Wesentlichen vollflächigen Auflage gelangt. Der Haken 16 kann in der Hakenaufnahme 14 in Richtung des Doppelpfeils hin und her verschoben werden, so dass die Dunstabzugshaube 2 beim Einsetzen in das Rahmenelement 4 nicht millimetergenau in Bezug auf die Hakenaufnahme 14 ausgerichtet und eingepasst sein muss. Die größere Breite der Hakenaufnahme 14 erlaubt es vielmehr, dass die Dunstabzugshaube 2 auch nach dem Einhängen der Dunstabzugshaube 2 in das Rahmenelement 4 noch nach vorne bzw. hinten beweglich ist, um die Dunstabzugshaube an die genaue Einbaulage im Verhältnis zum Hängeschrank anpassen zu können.In order to simplify operation, it is possible that the hook receptacles 14, as recesses in the frame element 4, can have a greater width than the hooks 16 with their end regions 17. This is shown in FIG Fig. 4 recognizable, which is an enlarged detailed view of the circle A of the hook holder 14 from Fig. 1 shows. In this position of the hook 16, the end region 17 engages through the hook recess 14 in such a way that an inner surface of the end region 17 extends parallel to and on an outer side of the frame element 4 comes to a substantially full-surface support. The hook 16 can be moved back and forth in the hook receptacle 14 in the direction of the double arrow so that the extractor hood 2 does not have to be aligned and fitted with millimeter precision in relation to the hook receptacle 14 when it is inserted into the frame element 4. Rather, the larger width of the hook holder 14 allows the extractor hood 2 to be movable forwards or backwards even after the extractor hood 2 has been hooked into the frame element 4 in order to be able to adapt the extractor hood to the exact installation position in relation to the wall cabinet.

Anstelle der Ausnehmung 14 kann das Rahmenelement 4 auch eine zeichnerisch nicht näher dargestellte Befestigungsleiste aufweisen, an der der Haken 16 aufgehängt wird. Die Befestigungsleiste kann so ausgebildet sein, dass der Haken 16 in verschiedenen Positionen entlang der Befestigungsleiste festlegbar ist. Die Befestigungsleiste erstreckt sich in annähernd horizontaler Richtung entlang der Innenseite des Rahmenelements 4. Es kann beispielsweise eine Befestigungsleiste nach Art einer Schubladenführung verwendet sein, in die ein Haken eingreift und entlang der Befestigungsleiste hin und her verschieblich ist.Instead of the recess 14, the frame element 4 can also have a fastening strip, not shown in detail in the drawing, on which the hook 16 is suspended. The fastening strip can be designed such that the hook 16 can be fixed in various positions along the fastening strip. The fastening strip extends in an approximately horizontal direction along the inside of the frame element 4. For example, a fastening strip in the manner of a drawer slide can be used, in which a hook engages and can be moved back and forth along the fastening strip.
