Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hanging system for an extractor hood comprising a frame structure with one or more profiles for supporting an extractor hood and the hanging system comprising hanging cables for hanging the frame structure from an overlying structure, such as a ceiling.
  • This hanging system is specifically a hanging system for extractor hoods.
  • An extractor hood can also be referred to as a kitchen hood or range hood.
  • This invention is usable with extractor hoods with extraction to the outside but is more specifically usable with extractor hoods with integrated recirculation that are intended to be set up in a room, such as a kitchen, wherein the air extracted by the extractor hood is filtered by the extractor hood itself and this filtered air is also sent back into the room by the extractor hood itself.
  • Such extractor hoods can be produced in a wide variety of designs.
  • extractor hoods are currently often produced so that they have a bar-shaped design or are incorporated into a shell, wherein the extractor hood and the shell then together have a bar-shaped appearance or they are surrounded by encasing parts, wherein the extractor hood then has, for example, a bar-shaped appearance and the encasing parts form a frame structure with profiles.
  • This last said frame structure can then, for example, be hung from a ceiling by one or more hanging cables.
  • Another way to hang extractor hoods is to use frames.
  • a frame can be produced that is able to support an extractor hood in an encased manner, wherein the extractor hood is then hung from a ceiling with the aid of this frame. No hanging cables are then required, and so no unsightly cables are visible.
  • Such frames are currently used in rooms of standard heights, for example heights of 2.50 m and 2.60 m. Frames are regarded as aesthetically pleasing. However, designer extractor hoods are often present in buildings with higher ceilings of 3 m or more. Extractor hoods have to be provided at an appropriate height from the cooking appliance in order to be able to extract steam properly.
  • each encasement profile is a hollow profile that extends in a longitudinal direction and comprises a passage for encasing one of said hanging cables, wherein this passage extends from a first end to a second end in the longitudinal direction of the encasement profile, wherein each hanging cable is connected to the frame structure and at least partially extends through the passage of the respective encasement profile and that each encasement profile is coupled by its second end to the frame structure and this is achieved with the aid of a coupling piece that, in use, allows movement between the encasement profile and the frame structure between a rest position of the hanging system, wherein the longitudinal direction of the encasement profile extends virtually vertically in a first rest direction and the longitudinal direction of a said profile of the frame structure, which extends at the location of the coupling of the encasement profile and the frame structure, extends
  • Said coupling piece preferably adjoiningly comprises a first connecting part for connection with the encasement profile at the location of the second end, the intermediate piece that is intended to extend between the encasement profile and said opening and a second connecting part for connection with the profile of the frame structure at the location of said opening, wherein this coupling piece comprises a body passage that extends from the first connecting part to the second connecting part and through which the hanging cable is intended to extend.
  • the frame structure with one or more profiles is intended to support an extractor hood.
  • the frame structure can then comprise, for example, lower profiles on which the extractor hood is intended to rest, so as to support the extractor hood from below.
  • the extractor hood may optionally comprise additional profiles that are intended to extend vertically in use and to extend at the sides of the extractor hood. When said lower profiles are thus present, the frame structure is then intended to support the extractor hood in an encased manner.
  • the frame structure can also comprise one or more upper profiles, which are then intended to encase the extractor hood in addition and/or to which the extractor hood is intended to be secured so as to support the extractor hood from above. What is meant by supporting is, inter alia, supporting from below, supporting from above, supporting at the sides and/or supporting in an encased manner.
  • Each hanging cable is connected to the frame structure and preferably to a said profile of the frame structure. Additional securing means may optionally be provided for this purpose. These securing means can substantially extend inside a passage of a said profile, when the profile is hollow. There can also be securing means such as brackets or the like secured to a said profile.
  • the one or more hanging cables are used to hang the frame structure and thus secure the extractor hood to an overlying structure at the desired distance from this overlying structure.
  • These hanging cables can be provided with the required strength and robustness so that forces, which act directly or indirectly on the extractor hood, can be readily accommodated.
  • this hanging system is thus also usable in higher rooms of 3 m of more.
  • Said encasement profiles screen the hanging cables, so that virtually no unsightly hanging cables are visible.
  • the one or more hanging cables extend at least partially through the passages of the respective one or more encasement profiles. It is further possible to simply provide encasement profiles and a frame structure with profiles, wherein all of these profiles have a similar appearance, so that the encasement profiles and the frame structure together form an aesthetically pleasing whole.
  • coupling pieces that are completely, or at least partially, made from an elastic material, such as rubber, so that movement between the encasement profiles and the frame structure is possible in different directions.
  • Coupling pieces that allow a pivoting movement between the encasement profiles and the frame structure are also possible.
  • Coupling pieces that operate according to an air-bellows principle or a spring principle are also possible, etc.
  • the coupling pieces can be provided so as to connect the encasement profiles at a distance from the frame structure, so that there is play between the encasement profiles and the frame structure, and so movement between the encasement profiles and the frame structure is not prevented.
  • the encasement profiles can shift in the frame structure during movement or vice versa so as not to prevent movement.
  • the rest position is the position that the hanging system assumes as standard.
  • the hanging cables and the encasement profiles then assume a virtually vertical position, given that they hang the frame structure from an overlying structure and are thus primarily subject to the force of gravity. There will be reciprocal movement between the encasement profiles and the frame structure, and the hanging system will assume said other positions, only when additional outside forces act on the frame structure and/or the extractor hood.
  • the coupling pieces can, for example, be able to allow movement between the rest position and one or more outermost positions, wherein, in a said outermost position, the angle between the direction of the longitudinal direction of the encasement profile or said profile and the respective rest direction is at least 5°. The larger this possible difference, the larger the possible movement.
  • the profile of the frame structure that extends at the location of the coupling of the encasement profile and the frame structure can, for example, be an upright profile that is intended to be arranged, in use, virtually vertically. This means that, in the rest position, the angle between the encasement profile and this profile is virtually 0°. There is then a rest angle of 0° in this case. In said other positions, this angle then differs from the rest angle and is larger than 0°, preferably larger than 5°.
  • the encasement profile and the upright profile preferably extend in the continuation of one another in the rest position and these profiles further preferably have virtually the same outermost contours viewed in a plane perpendicular to their longitudinal directions, so that the encasement profile and the upright profile have the appearance of one continuous profile in the rest position, which is regarded as very aesthetically pleasing.
  • the profile of the frame structure that extends at the location of the coupling of the encasement profile and the frame structure can, for example, be a profile that is intended to be arranged, in use, virtually horizontally. This means that, in the rest position, the angle between the encasement profile and this profile is virtually 90°.
  • This hanging system combines the advantages of hanging cables, namely the ability to hang extractor hoods at relatively large distances from an overlying structure, the straightforward hanging of the extractor hood, good height adjustment, and the required robustness while providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
  • the encasement profiles, potentially together with the coupling pieces, are in this case namely able to largely, and preferably virtually completely, screen the hanging cables from view and can be produced so that they form an aesthetically pleasing whole with the frame structure.
  • the coupling piece intended to allow a movement between the encasement profile and the respective profile of the frame structure such that, in a said other position, the longitudinal direction of the encasement profile extends in a direction that differs from the first rest direction.
  • the encasement profile is then able to move, as a result of which at least the portion of the hanging cable that extends through the encasement profile is also able to move with respect to the frame structure and the overlying structure.
  • the hanging cable is very readily able to accommodate forces that act on the hanging system.
  • the coupling piece is intended to allow a movement between the encasement profile and the respective profile of the frame structure such that both the encasement profile can move with respect to the frame structure and the frame structure can move with respect to the encasement profile. Forces that act on the hanging system can be accommodated optimally in this case.
  • the angle between the first rest direction and the direction of the longitudinal direction of the encasement profile is at least 10°, preferably at least 20°.
  • the larger this angle the more the hanging cables can move with respect to the frame structure, thus the larger the forces that the hanging system can accommodate.
  • the coupling pieces can be produced so that the movement between a said encasement profile and the frame structure does not occur overly abruptly.
  • the coupling pieces can, for example, be made substantially of an elastic material, such as rubber.
  • each hanging cable extends through the passage of the respective encasement profile and beyond the second end of the encasement profile, wherein the hanging cable is connected to the frame structure at the location of the portion of the hanging cable that extends beyond the second end of the encasement profile.
  • the coupling piece can simply be provided with a portion that keeps the encasement profile at a distance from the frame structure, so that movement between the encasement profile and the frame structure is not prevented.
  • the frame structure comprises, for each hanging cable, an opening that, in use, opens out at the top and provides access to an interior space of a said profile of the frame structure, wherein each hanging cable extends through the opening into the interior space and, at the location of the interior space, is connected to this profile, wherein the encasement profile is coupled by its second end to the respective profile of the frame structure at the location of the respective opening and this is achieved with the aid of the coupling piece, wherein the last said profile is the profile that extends in the second rest direction in the rest position of the hanging system.
  • the coupling piece may optionally extend through said opening.
  • a said opening forms part of a said profile of the frame structure, so that this profile then comprises the opening.
  • the frame structure can be provided with the required robustness.
  • This profile is thus, for example, a hollow profile that extends in a longitudinal direction with a passage that extends in the longitudinal direction, wherein the opening is then an opening at the location of an end, viewed in the longitudinal direction, wherein this opening extends, for example, in a plane that extends virtually perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction and provides access to the passage.
  • This hollow profile can, for example, also be intended to extend virtually horizontally, wherein this opening is then, for example, located in a side wall of this hollow profile.
  • This hollow profile can, for example, have a rectangular cross section, such as a square cross section, but it can also have another shape such as a circular cross section, depending on the desired design.
  • said passage then substantially forms said interior space, for example.
  • these securing means can extend inside the passage, but these securing means can also form part of the profile.
  • the profile of the frame structure comprising a said opening can, for example, be an upright profile that is intended to be arranged, in use, virtually vertically. This means that, in the rest position, the angle between the respective longitudinal directions of the encasement profile and this profile is virtually 0°.
  • the encasement profile and the upright profile preferably then extend in the continuation of one another and these profiles further preferably have virtually the same outermost contours viewed in a plane perpendicular to their longitudinal directions, so that the encasement profile and the upright profile have the appearance of one continuous profile in the rest position, which is regarded as very aesthetically pleasing.
  • the hanging cables are optionally secured directly to the overlying structure, and the hanging cables are brought through the respective openings until, preferably, the desired distance from the frame structure to the overlying structure is obtained.
  • said coupling pieces comprise elastic material, such as rubber.
  • elastic material such as rubber.
  • a said coupling piece can be made substantially of rubber and, for example, comprise even more than 95 percent rubber by weight.
  • Such coupling pieces are then referred to by the term rubber coupling pieces and allow a great deal of freedom of movement between the encasement profile and the respective profile.
  • a respective coupling piece adjoiningly comprises a first connecting part for connection with the encasement profile at the location of the second end, an intermediate piece that is intended to extend between the encasement profile and the respective opening and a second connecting part for connection with the profile of the frame structure at the location of the respective opening, wherein this coupling piece comprises a body passage that extends from the first connecting part to the second connecting part and through which the hanging cable is intended to extend.
  • the first and/or a second connecting part are preferably clampably accommodable. In addition, they can comprise protruding elements such as ribs, dots, etc. on their outside for additional friction.
  • Said intermediate piece provides for connection of the encasement profile to the frame part at a distance from the frame part.
  • This intermediate piece can, for example, comprise elastic material, so that it is deformable and allows movement between the encasement profile and the frame part.
  • the intermediate piece can also be made of a harder material, wherein then, for example, the first and/or a second connecting part comprise elastic material and are thus deformable.
  • the entire coupling piece can also be made of elastic material.
  • the first connecting part is form-fittingly accommodable in the passage of the respective encasement profile at the location of the second end, the outermost contours of a cross section of the intermediate piece, viewed in the rest position of the hanging system and perpendicular to the first rest direction, virtually correspond with the outermost contours of a corresponding cross section of the encasement profile at the location of the second end, and the second connecting part is form-fittingly accommodable through the respective opening in the respective interior space.
  • the transition between the encasement profile and the intermediate piece can be made hardly visible so that the intermediate piece forms a continuation of the encasement profile and it appears as if the encasement profile and the intermediate piece form a continuous piece.

  • the impression is created here that the encasement profile forms one piece together with the frame structure, given that the encasement profile extends in the continuation of a profile of the frame structure.
  • the frame structure and the one or more encasement profiles thus have a desired appearance.
  • the outermost contours of the upright profile virtually correspond with the outermost contours of the encasement profile.

  • certain profiles of the frame structure and the encasement profiles are, preferably, hollow profiles with the same perimeter and with the same dimensions of passages that extend in the longitudinal direction. These profiles can then be made and/or cut from the same longer profiles via the same production process.
  • the frame structure further preferably comprises a first horizontal profile on which an extractor hood is intended to be borne and two said upright profiles that are each intended to be connected to respective ends of the horizontal profile and are thus intended to encase an extractor hood in an upright direction, wherein this horizontal profile and the two upright profiles together form part of a hanging unit.
  • This horizontal profile and the upright profiles can then, for example, be welded to one another or bonded to one another, at an angle or otherwise, so that this hanging unit is aesthetically pleasing.
