Description

Auxiliary device for exhausting of range hood and range comprising the same}

The present invention relates to an exhaust auxiliary device for a range hood and a range including the same, and to a device and range that assist in more effectively discharging odors generated during cooking through the hood.

Generally, a hood is provided at the upper part of a range used for cooking food to absorb and exhaust odors generated when cooking food.

As shown in FIG. 1, the hood 1 is located on the upper part of the range 10 provided on the kitchen counter, and the hood 1 absorbs odors generated from the cooking utensils P on the range 10 during cooking. It is sucked in and exhausted through the inlet port (2).

However, the hood 1 is provided at a predetermined distance D1 from the range 10, and the range 10 and hood 1 cannot be placed closer than the standard (minimum 65 cm).

In addition, due to the increase in the average height of users, the enlargement of kitchen counters due to improvements in living environments, etc., the distance D1 between the range 10 and the hood 1 is set wider than the above standard, which causes cooking problems. The smell rises and spreads, and is not properly exhausted by the hood (1).

Even if the hood (1) is placed close to or low on the range (10), in this case, the hood (1) has no choice but to be installed inward from the position of the kitchen counter in order to prevent the user's head from touching it. Due to the enlargement of the range 10 itself, the area of the hood 1 cannot cover the entire area of the top plate of the range 10, so the center of the cooking utensil P located on the range 10 and the hood 1 ), a gap (D2) is created between the inlet ports (2), and this makes it difficult for the smell generated during cooking to be completely sucked in through the inlet port (2) of the hood (1).

In order to solve this problem, Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose devices that prevent odors generated during cooking from spreading or being discharged outside the cooking range by spraying air at high pressure around the range to form an air curtain.

However, in the case of such devices, the area occupied by the range becomes larger due to the shape surrounding the range, making the kitchen more crowded.

In addition, by forming an air curtain around the range 10, it only prevents the spread of odors generated during cooking, but does not actually help the exhaust of the odor itself, and the injection hole 131 through which air is sprayed is used to prevent the spread of odors generated during cooking. Because it is placed between the cooker and the user, when cooking the cookware P placed on the range 10 and having to touch the cookware P, the sprayed air is blocked and odors are not released into the space outside the kitchen counter. It spreads, and the sprayed air touches the user's arm, causing discomfort.

In addition, there are cases where air is not sprayed even during cooking. In this case, there is a problem in that food splashed during cooking blocks the spray hole, causing difficulty in subsequent use and inconvenience in cleaning.
