Device for extracting vapours and method for extracting vapours by means of the device and use of the device for extracting vapours
A device for extracting vapors comprising an intake housing and a blower, wherein the intake housing comprises an air inlet means, wherein the air inlet means has an upper wall and a lower wall which form an interior space with an inlet opening, wherein at least the upper wall has a corrugated shape on an inner side with at least two upwardly curved surface sections, wherein at least in the region of the upwardly curved surface sections the interior space has widenings.
1. A device for extracting vapors comprising:
an intake housing and a blower, wherein the intake housing includes an upper wall and a lower wall that when coupled together define an interior space with an inlet opening and an air inlet, the air inlet has a horizontal opening angle, wherein the horizontal opening angle (γ) is an angle in a horizontal sectional view of the air inlet whose sides are applied to lateral inner walls, wherein the lower wall having on an inner side a planar surface, wherein the upper wall has on an inner side a corrugated shape with at least two upwardly curved surface sections each having different radiuses, wherein at least in the region of the upwardly curved surface sections the interior space has widenings in a direction of airflow defined by the at least two upwardly curved surface sections, a height of the interior space between the at least two upwardly curved surface sections and the planar surface on the inner side of the lower wall increases and decreases in the inflow direction based on the different radiuses of the at least two upwardly curved surface sections.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein a first widening is associated with the inlet opening.
3. The device according to claim 1 wherein a second widening is associated with an outflow opening.
4. The device according to claim 1 wherein a projection is associated with the inlet opening.
5. The device according to claim 4 , wherein at least one cover is associated with a top surface of said device and at least partially envelops said air inlet, said at least one cover forming said projection.
6. The device according to claim 5 wherein the projection on the top surface and/or on at least one side of the device is extended away from the air inlet.
7. The device according to claim 4 wherein a protrusion of the projection over the air inlet decreases from a top surface of the device towards a bottom surface of the device.
8. The device according to claim 1 wherein the intake housing is detachably connected to a blower housing.
9. The device according to claim 8 , wherein the intake housing is rotatably connected to the blower housing.
10. The device according to claim 8 wherein the blower housing comprises the blower, which is switchable by a safety switch.
11. The device according to claim 8 wherein the intake housing and the blower housing are movable together and/or separately from each other.
12. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the interior space has at least a first widening and a second widening, wherein the first widening is associated immediately or shortly after the inlet opening and the second widening is arranged substantially above an outflow opening.
13. A method for extracting vapors above a cooking hob comprising the steps of:
generating an air flow by a blower into an intake housing, the intake housing includes an upper wall and a lower wall that when coupled together define an interior space with an inlet opening and an air inlet, wherein the air inlet has a horizontal opening angle, at least by the upper wall of the air inlet, which has at least on an inner side a corrugated shape with at least two upwardly curved surface sections each having different radiuses, the lower wall having on an inner side a planar surface, the air flow is at least partially applied to at least the upper wall, wherein at least in the region of the upwardly curved surface sections the interior space has widenings in a direction of airflow defined by the at least two upwardly curved surface sections, a height of the interior space between the at least two upwardly curved surface sections and the planar surface on the inner side of the lower wall increases and decreases in the inflow direction based on the different radiuses of the at least two upwardly curved surface sections; and
directing the air flow into the blower at least via an outlet opening of the air inlet.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the interior space has at least a first widening and a second widening, wherein the first widening is associated immediately or shortly after the inlet opening and the second widening is arranged substantially above an outflow opening.
