Description

  The present invention relates to a range hood for an IH cooking heater that sucks and exhausts contaminated air from an IH cooking heater that does not generate combustion gas.

Conventionally, gas appliances and electric stoves that use city gas, LP gas, or the like as fuel have been used as cooking devices.
In the case of gas appliances, combustion requires harmful substances such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, so sufficient ventilation must be ensured.
Therefore, the need for an IH cooking heater that does not generate harmful substances during cooking is gradually increasing.
Since the IH cooking heater does not generate combustion gas, it is possible to capture contaminated air even in a shallow capture space without providing a deep capture space.

  However, the IH cooking heater does not generate upward airflow, so it is easily affected by crosswinds generated by external factors such as human movement, door opening and closing, air conditioning, etc. There is a problem with poor air capture efficiency.

In addition, various kitchen layouts incorporating Western styles have been proposed today, and many system kitchens that emphasize design in harmony with them have appeared. The range hood incorporated in these system kitchens is also expected to have a design that matches these, and recently, the hood body part that has the greatest influence on the capture of contaminated air generated by cooking is made very thin. A slim type range hood is desired.
Range hoods that require deep capture space and range hoods that install exhaust devices inside the hood not only raise the problem of not being able to implement a novel design as a hood body, as a result of these increasing design constraints, It was pure.
Prior art documents relating to crosswind countermeasures in the range hood of the IH cooking heater specification described above are unknown to the applicant.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an IH cooking heater specification range hood that improves the capture efficiency of contaminated air.

The technical means taken to solve the above-mentioned problem is that the part against the polluted air generated by the cooking with the IH cooking heater from the part around the polluted air trapping part which is arranged to cross the suction direction of the exhaust means. A range hood for an IH cooking heater, characterized by sending out an air flow that prevents cross wind interference (Claim 1).
Here, the contaminated air trapping part that is in a crossing relationship with the exhaust means in the hood body is a surface part having an oil removing part (filter). For example, in a flat type range hood, a partition plate or the like that forms a capture space with a lower surface portion, and in a boot type range hood, a front plate.
And the exhaust means is installed outside the hood body, the hood body is formed in a thin shape with the lower surface open, and the hood body is recessed to capture contaminated air by cooking so as to close the open portion of the lower surface. The cross wind interference prevention flow is sent out downward from the open edge portion of the hood body (Claim 2), and the cross wind interference prevention flow is sent out in a slightly inclined manner with respect to the vertical line. It is preferable to adopt such a configuration (claim 3).
In the case of a range hood attached to the wall in a cantilever manner, the air flow that prevents the cross wind interference is sent out from the front edge and the left and right edges of the hood body. In this case, it is preferable to feed from the entire edge.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, the cross air generated from external factors such as human action, door opening and closing, and air conditioning does not affect the contaminated air that does not generate the upward air flow generated by cooking with the IH cooking heater. A range hood for an IH cooking heater having a very high capture efficiency of contaminated air can be provided.
In addition, since the exhaust means is arranged outside, the hood body is thin and can implement a novel design, the degree of freedom of design can be expanded, and the customer can have the flexibility to respond to the needs immediately.
