Abstract

A device for treating vapors includes a fluid-tight container that has a vapor inlet, a vapor outlet and a through-flow connection which connects the vapor inlet to the vapor outlet in particular along a direction of flow, wherein the container can be at least partially filled with a cooling fluid.

Claims (31)

1 - 6 . (canceled)

7 . A device for treating vapors, comprising:

a fluid-tight container, which can be filled with a cooling fluid at least in some regions, the fluid container comprising:

a vapor inlet;

a vapor outlet; and

a through-flow connection which connects the vapor inlet to the vapor outlet; and

at least one sensor for detecting at least one parameter of at least one of a vapor flow and a coolant in the container;

wherein the sensor is connected in a signal-transmitting manner to a control device for controlling the addition of cooling fluid to at least one of the container of the device and to a control device for controlling the extracted volume flow.

8 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor and a conductivity sensor and a volume flow sensor serves as a sensor.

9 - 11 . (canceled)

12 . The device for treating vapors according to claim 1 , wherein

at least one cooling member in the form of a solid body is arranged in the container.

13 . The device according to claim 12 , wherein a cooling plate serves as cooling member.

14 . The device according to claim 12 , wherein the cooling member is liquid-cooled.

15 . The device according to claim 12 , comprising an inlet through which cooling fluid can be applied to the cooling member.

16 . The device according to claim 12 , wherein the cooling member in each case has one or more defined outlets for draining cooling fluid into the bottom tray of the container.

17 . The device according to claim 12 , wherein the at least one cooling member has a respective overflow edge.

18 - 20 . (canceled)

21 . The device according to claim 1 , comprising a control device by means of which an addition of cooling fluid to the container can be controlled.

22 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the through-flow connection has a flow cross-section increasing in the direction of flow.

23 . An apparatus for cleaning vapors comprising:

a device for treating vapor according to claim 1 ; and

a fan for applying negative pressure to the container.

24 . The apparatus for cleaning vapors according to claim 23 , wherein the sensor is connected in a signal-transmitting manner to a control device for controlling the volume flow that is extracted by the fan.

25 . The apparatus for cleaning vapors according to claim 23 further comprising:

at least one filter device,

which is connected to the device in a fluid-conducting manner and

which is arranged downstream from the vapor outlet of the device.

26 - 54 . (canceled)

55 . A kitchen appliance comprising a device for treating vapors according to claim 1 .

56 . A kitchen appliance comprising an apparatus for cleaning vapors according to claim 23 .
