An inflow nozzle for an intake opening of a device for downward extraction of cooking vapours has a supporting structure and a plurality of pin-like elements arranged on the supporting structure.

A cooking device includes a main body including an upper side and a lower side opposing each other, a cooking surface at the upper side of the main body, and an air shield generator which draws air from outside the main body, at the lower side of the main body, and provides the air to outside of the main body as an air shield which is at the upper side of the main body, adjacent to the cooking surface and flowing in a direction away from the cooking surface.

An exhaust canopy comprising: a stationary portion adapted for mounting on a stationary object, above cooking equipment; an exhaust portion for removing or filtering cooking effluent or fluids, the exhaust portion being adjustably connected, directly or indirectly, with the stationary portion or the stationary object; and an adjustment mechanism for moving the exhaust portion with respect to the stationary portion or the stationary object; wherein the exhaust canopy is adjustable between a first configuration in which the exhaust portion is raised, retracted or withdrawn and a second configuration in which the exhaust portion is lowered, protracted, or extended.

A hob (1) with one or more cooking locations (2), which, as viewed from above, exhibits one or more recesses (4) only in the area (25) around its geometric center (3), which are respectively connected with one or more devices (5) for removing cooking vapors through suction. These devices (5) for removing cooking vapors through suction downwardly remove the cooking vapors that arise above the cooking locations (2) by suction in a direction vertically below the hob (1), and such a hob (1), which in the assembly unit is designed with a device (36) for operating the hob (2) and downwardly removing cooking vapors by suction.

Disclosed is an induction ventilation system for air supply and exhaust, including: an upper plate that has an induction heating portion thereon and a lift hole in a rear portion thereof; a vertically movable unit that moves up and down through the lift hole and is equipped with a filter; an air suction and discharge unit including a chamber with an oil drain hole, a flexible duct connected between the vertically movable unit and the chamber, an air suction fan, and a discharge pipe through which indoor air drawn by the air suction fan is discharged outside; a grease tray installed under the chamber to collect grease that is condensed on the surface of an air suction passage; and an air supply hood that guides the indoor air to the air suction passage by supplying air to the upper plate using an air supply fan.

An extractor apparatus includes an extraction body having an extraction side provided with an extraction opening, a rear side opposite the extraction side, and three connecting walls. Each of the connecting walls extends between an edge of the extraction side and an edge of the rear side. At least one of the connecting walls of the extraction body is provided with a blow-out opening for blowing air out. A blower extracts air downwards via the extraction opening.

A method for preparing decontamination measures within a room located in a building and used by people includes a planning acquisition step. Therein, a plurality of regions of use within the room are identified, and for each region an expected use intensity is determined based on previously determined parameters. In a subsequent planning implementation step, for each region of use, proceeding from the expected use intensity, a suction means assigned to said region of use and having an associated supply air volume flow is specified. In a method by carrying out the decontamination measures, while the decontamination measures are being carried out, operation of individual suction means is adjusted to an actual use of the assigned region of use by people, and a suction volume flow suctioned by the suction means in question is specified, between a minimum value specified for the suction means in question, and a maximum value.

A domestic appliance has an enclosure panel that has a ventilation section that has solid portions and open portions. The solid portions has first legs extending in a first direction, and second legs extending in a second direction. Two of the first legs and two of the second legs completely bound one of the open portions. A third one of the second legs intersects the first one of the first legs at a first intersecting location other than either end of the first one of the first legs. A fourth one of the second legs intersects the second one of the first legs at a second intersecting location other than either end of the second one of the first legs.

A cook top includes an inputter configured to receive input of a user manipulation, and a cooker configured to heat a cooking device placed on the cook top. A communicator is configured to perform communication with a user terminal device and a range hood. A processor is configured to: control an operating state of the cooker according to the user manipulation, transmit a signal for controlling an operating state of the range hood to correspond to the operating state of the cooker to the range hood, and control the communicator to transmit state information of the cook top that includes information of the operating state of the cooker to the user terminal device.

A tabletop cooking assembly for preparing foods thereon includes a burner element, a pan surrounding the burner element, a grill adjacent to the burner element, and an exhaust plenum adjacent to the grill having a plurality of apertures for drawing smoke away from the grill and an outlet for exhausting smoke therefrom. The exhaust plenum forms a defined volume around the grill to draw the smoke into the exhaust plenum and away from the grill such that the smoke does not pass through the grill or about the burner element. An exhaust duct and at least one filter assembly having at least one filter disposed therein are in fluid communication with the exhaust plenum for filtering grease. The subject invention also includes a blower for exhausting the smoke from the exhaust duct to an area outside of and immediately adjacent to the tabletop cooking assembly.
