Contact grill designs with features that reduce the production of smoke and that otherwise diffuse smoke to reduce the visibility of the smoke as such smoke made up of a combination of steam and burned grease is generated during the cooking of a food product such as a meat product. Contact grills make use of passive air flow in one or both of upper and lower grill housings to reduce production of smoke and to better diffuse smoke to reduce smoke visibility exiting a cooking chamber of the contact grill.

The invention relates to an extractor fan apparatus for extracting cooking vapours downwards. The extractor fan apparatus comprises at least one fan for aspirating the cooking vapours, an inflow opening for the entry of the cooking vapours into the extractor fan apparatus, a filter seat which is arranged downstream of the at least one fan and on which at least one filter for filtering the cooking vapours can be arranged, and a filter replacement space which extends between the inflow opening and the at least one filter seat, the filter replacement space being configured for the reversible removal of the at least one filter from the filter seat through the inflow opening.

A recirculation grill that includes a cooktop supported by a stationary frame. The grill includes an intake aperture defining a plurality of slats configured for receiving smoke from the cooktop; a waste tray compartment connected to the trough for receiving waste and grease and having a drawer for removing and cleaning; an interior plenum configured to create a vacuum force to pull air and smoke from the cooktop into the intake aperture; a diffuser positioned over the trash compartment and extending downwardly and outwardly; a tunnel configured to receive air flow from the plenum; and a blower housing enclosing a blower fan configured for pulling air and smoke from the cooktop into the intake aperture and through the plenum. The intake aperture, the plenum, and the blower are configured to achieve 100% visible smoke capture.

The present disclosure belongs to the field of kitchen equipment, and in particular relates to a cooking device. The cooking device of the present disclosure includes a cabinet and an installation bracket. A cooking chamber is formed in the cabinet, and the installation bracket is detachably connected to the cabinet. A fan assembly is arranged on the installation bracket, and a fume exhaust duct that communicates with the fan assembly is arranged in the installation bracket or in the cabinet. According to the cooking device of the present disclosure, the cabinet and the fan assembly are arranged separately, the fan assembly is arranged on the installation bracket, and a fume exhaust duct that communicates with the fan assembly is arranged inside the installation bracket.

The present application discloses a cooking device, which includes a cabinet; the cabinet includes an inner cavity, a first heating assembly and a second heating assembly; the inner cavity is provided with a cooking chamber, as well as a first side wall and a second side wall that are arranged opposite to each other, the first side wall is provided with a first ventilation structure, and the second side wall is provided with a second ventilation structure; the first heating assembly is arranged outside the inner cavity and arranged corresponding to the first ventilation structure, and is configured to circularly heat air in the cooking chamber; the second heating assembly is arranged outside the inner cavity and arranged corresponding to the second ventilation structure, and is configured to circularly heat the air in the cooking chamber.

A grilling machine is described, which comprises a base body, a plate, arranged on the base body and defining a cooking surface whereon foods to be cooked are laid, and heating means operationally associated with the plate for heating the cooking surface. There is also a circuit, associated with the plate, for treating the fumes produced during the food cooking process. The fumes treatment circuit comprises: a hood arranged above the plate, which comprises at least one suction mouth, a filtering unit fluidically connected to the hood, and at least one recirculation outlet fluidically connected downstream of the filtering unit and located near the plate. In this manner, the cooking fumes sucked in through the suction mouth of the hood are treated by the filtering unit in order to obtain a purified flow with a given percentage of humidity. The purified flow is then recirculated towards the cooking surface through the recirculation outlet in order to exert a humidifying action on the foods.

A wind outlet mechanism for a range hood comprises a wind outlet and a decorative cover. The decorative cover has a plurality of wind discharge holes, a flow guide member is disposed inside the decorative cover, and the flow guide member has a cambered flow guide surface opposite to and protruding toward the wind outlet. The flow guide surface can make the air flow discharged from the wind discharge holes on the decorative cover.

A fume collecting assembly, a range hood, a side suction range hood, a range hood for two-sided fume collection and central air intake, a range hood with partition, and a central fume purification device are provided. The fume collecting assembly includes a fume collecting panel having curved recessed portion and an air deflector, which has curved protruding portion and is connected to the fume collecting panel, and the curved protruding portion is opposite the curved recessed portion, forming first air inlet and second air inlet spaced apart. The fume collecting panel includes a fume collecting port for discharging fumes into a duct of range hood. The first air inlet and the second air inlet both communicate with the fume collecting port. The range hood, the side suction range hood, the range hood for two-sided fume collection and central air intake, and the range hood with partition include the fume collecting assembly.

A combination appliance includes a hob including a cooking module and having a suction opening, and a fume extraction device located, at least in part, below the cooking module. The fume extraction device includes a blower located below the suction opening and having an air inlet opening, and a filter unit located at the suction opening and having a grease filter. The fume extraction device includes a separating plate which separates the filter unit from the blower located below the filter unit.

An apparatus for preparing food having a heating device with hot plate, a filter device and a cover device, which is in operative connection with the filter device and has an upper side, an underside and side surfaces. The cover device, on the underside, has at least one entry opening of a flow channel for exhaust air, the flow channel being arranged in the interior of the cover device. The flow channel, on a first side surface, has an exit opening, wherein the exit opening can be positioned such that the exhaust air can flow via the exit opening into an entry opening of the filter device.
