Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a range hood that can efficiently remove smoke and improve usability by reducing the occupied volume and flattening when not in use. [Prior Art] A cooking table is sometimes equipped with an exhaust device to eliminate smoke generated during cooking, and a hood to prevent oil from scattering during cooking. Such exhaust equipment is installed on the walls and ceiling of the cooking room, separate from the cooking table. On the other hand, the hood was fixed at a fixed position on the cooking table and could not be changed in position or direction. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when the exhaust device is installed on the wall or ceiling as described above, the path of smoke exhaust inside the cooking room becomes long, which not only pollutes the walls and ceiling but also damages the environment of the cooking room. The problem is that it gets worse.

On the other hand, since the degree and direction of the scattering of dirt differs depending on the type and amount of food to be cooked, it becomes necessary to relocate the hood with respect to the stove. However, when the hood is fixed to the cooking table, it is impossible to adjust the position and orientation of the hood.

In order to solve the above problem, the hood could be made larger, but if a large hood is installed, depending on the content of the cooking, it will get in the way of cooking and the appearance will also deteriorate. Also, cleaning to remove oil adhering to the hood is troublesome.

There are also folding screen-like simple hoods that can be placed upright at any position on the cooking table, but with such simple hoods,
Because it is not fixed, it is likely to fall out of position and there is a risk of fire.

Furthermore, if such a range hood is built-in on the cooking table, it will get in the way when the stove is not in use, or when there is no oil scattering or smoke, which will interfere with the cooking process. For this reason, it is possible to make the range hood removable, but this poses the problem of having to secure space for storage. Furthermore, if the range hood is fixedly mounted on the cooking table, it will get in the way when the stove is not in use, or when there is no oil scattering or smoke emitting, which will interfere with the cooking process. Therefore, the hood body needs to be one that is not bulky when not in use. The present invention is based on disposing an exhaust device on a tiltable hood body, and furthermore, providing the hood body with a sub-body that protrudes upward from the stove, thereby increasing smoke exhaust efficiency and preventing oil from scattering. Moreover, the aim is to provide a range hood that can improve the usability of the cooking table without leaving it unused when not in use. [Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention provides a range hood that is provided on the top plate of a cooking table having a range base with a stove on the top plate, and a lid having a recess on the side facing the stove. A hood body with a shape,
an exhaust device having an intake port facing the recess and to which a duct leading to an intake fan is connected; and a pivoting device for attaching the front edge of the hood body to the top plate so that the hood body can be tilted toward the stove. In addition, the pivot has a support shaft that supports the hood body via a holder that holds the hood body in a tilted state, and the hood body has a recess on the side facing the stove. This range hood includes a substantially lid-shaped base and a sub-body that can protrude upward from the upper edge of the base and can be accommodated in the base. [Function] The exhaust device has an air intake opening facing the recess of the hood body facing the stove, so the stove, which is the smoke generating part, and the intake opening can be brought close together, and as a result of shortening the smoke path, the ceiling , it is possible to significantly reduce wall stains and improve the environment in the cooking room. In addition, since it has a pivot that allows the hood body to tilt toward the stove, it not only efficiently prevents dirt such as oil from scattering from the food being cooked, but also prevents smoke from the stove near the source. This can further improve smoke evacuation efficiency. Moreover, since the hood body does not shift in position, cooking operations can be performed safely. In addition, since the hood body includes a base body supported by a support ring and a sub body that can protrude toward the stove from the upper edge of the base body, it can more effectively capture smoke and scatter dirt such as oil. ．． In addition, since the subsidiary body can be stored in the base body, when not in use or when there is no burying or scattering of oil, etc.,
By being able to accommodate the accessory body in the base body and thus making the hood body smaller, cooking work becomes easier and the usability of the cooking table can be improved. [Example] An example of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. 1st~
In FIG. 3, the range hood 1 of the present invention is installed on the top plate 2 of a cooking table 5 having a range base 4 on which a stove 3 is provided.

Further, the range hood 1 includes a lid-like hood body 6, an exhaust device 10 having an intake port 9 facing the recess 7 of the hood body 6, and a pivot 12 for tilting the hood body 6. The pivot 12 has a support shaft l4 that supports the hood body 6 via a holder 13 that holds the hood body 6 in a tilted state, and the hood body 6 has a base body 16 and The sub-body 17 can protrude upward from the upper edge of the stove 3 and can be accommodated in the base body 16. In the cooking table 5, the upper plate 2 is disposed approximately horizontally between a front plate 3l and a rear plate 32 in parallel with each other, and in this embodiment, the upper plate 2 has a front part 2A to which the stove 3 is attached. , is connected to the front portion 2A via the front portion 2A and an upward step portion, and is connected to the hood base 6.
It consists of the rear part 2B where the is attached. The base body 16 has an upper cover piece 22 that extends toward the stove 3 and has an upwardly convex shape extending from the upper edge of a back piece 21 that extends upward at the rear of the top plate 2; 21 By extending a pair of side covers 23, 23 toward the stove 3 on the side greens on both sides, a U-shape consisting of the upper cover 22 and the pair of side covers 23, 23 is formed. A covering piece 24 is formed. The base body 16 is attached to the upper plate 2 by a pivot l2. As shown in FIG. 3, the pivot l2 extends from the inner edge of the horizontal piece 27 attached to the upper surface of the upper temporary 2 to the one along the outer surface of the side cover piece 23.
A connecting fitting 29 is provided with a pair of two vertical pieces 29, and the vertical pieces 29 are provided with a through hole 31 through which the support shaft 14 passes. On the other hand, a ring hole 33 is transparently provided at the lower end of the side cover piece 23, and by loosely fitting the support shaft 14 into the hole 33, the hood body 9 is connected to the connection fitting 30 via the support shaft 14. Moreover, it can rotate around the support shaft 14.

A blind hole 34 is formed in the vertical piece 29 of the connection fitting 30 and is located above the through hole 31 and opens on the base body 16 side. A biased spherical pressing piece 36 is installed. On the other hand,
The base body 16 is provided with a plurality of recesses 37--, which are aligned with the blind hole 34 and arranged on an arcuate line equidistant from the shaft hole 33.

Therefore, by selectively fitting the pressing piece 36 into one of the recesses 37 with elastic pressure, the hood body 6 can be held in a tilted state. The retainer l3 is defined by the pressing piece 36 and the recess 37. Furthermore, by providing the recess 37 vertically so that the plate 6 can tilt the stove 3 upward, it becomes possible to cover the stove 3. Therefore, the pivot 12 is a retainer 1 that holds the hood body 6 in a tilted state.
It has a support shaft l4 that supports the hood body 6 through the support shaft 3. In this embodiment, the sub body 17 is disposed along the outer surface of the cover pieces 23, 23 on the side of the base body 16, and is rotatably pivoted at the upper end of the base body 16 by the cover piece 23 on the side and a pin 39. It is a U-shaped body consisting of a pair of supported side plates 42, 42, and a front plate 43 connecting between the front edges of the side plates 42, 42, and there is a space between the side cover piece 23 and the side plate 42. A sub-body cage 44 is provided, which is made of structural members similar to those of the cage 13. Therefore, the sub body 17 can also be tilted relative to the base body 16 about the pin 39 disposed at its upper end, and the sub body 17 can be held in a tilted state. In this way, the sub body 17 can protrude upward from the upper edge of the footrest and can be accommodated in the base body 16. An exhaust tool 10 is disposed in the recess 7 of the base body 16. The exhaust tool 10 is fixed to the upper core plate 2 by passing a box-shaped intake box 46 having an opening facing obliquely forward through a hole 45 provided in the upper VI2 and protruding the upper part from the upper plate 2. ．． The protrusion of the intake box 46 is made smaller than the width of the side cover plate 23 to avoid interference between the two when the base body 16 tilts. A duct 47 in which an intake fan l1 is interposed is connected to the lower end of the intake box 46. Therefore, the opening of the intake box 46 forms the intake port 9 of the exhaust device 10. However, the intake fan 11
By driving the stove 3, smoke generated from the stove 3 is taken in through the intake port 9 of the exhaust device 10 arranged in the recess 7 of the hood body 6. The base body 16 is supported by the support shaft 14 of the pivot 12, and by interposing the holder 13 between the support shaft 14 and the support shaft 14, the base body 16 can maintain an inclined posture with respect to the stove 3 about the support shaft 14. It can be done. Further, since the sub body 17 can rotate relative to the top of the base body 16, the sub body 17 can be pulled out from the base body 16 toward the side facing the stove 3 and can be stored within the base body 16. Therefore, by pulling out the sub-body 17 from the base body 16, the hood body 6 can cover a large area over the stove 3, and since the base body 16 can tilt and maintain its tilting motion, both of them work together to improve the smoke collection effect. The smoke from the high stove 3 can be efficiently exhausted. 4 and 5 show other embodiments of the present invention.

In this example, the subbody 17A is shaped so that it can advance and retreat over the cover 22 on the base 16 toward the top of the stove 3. The sub body 17A has a rectangular plate shape on the side facing the stove 3,
A plate part 51 made of a rigid body made of transparent heat-resistant glass, and a plurality of hinges 52 connected to the rear green part of the plate part 51.
- are arranged side by side at a small pitch, thereby providing a flexible portion 53 that can be freely bent in the front-rear direction. In addition, at the rear end of the flexible portion 53, there is a protrusion 54 that protrudes to both sides.
, 54 are attached. On the other hand, a frame 57 having a recess 56 into which the sub-body 17 can be inserted is attached to the rear surface of the back piece 21 of the base 16 with the opening of the recess 56 facing upward. Further, on both sides of the frame body 57, elongated guide grooves 59 are provided which extend upward and downward and guide the protrusions 54 of the sub-body 17A. In this example, the intake box 46A is fixed to the back piece 2l, while the intake box 46A is connected to the duct 47 via a connecting duct 61 made of a flexible bellows. Therefore, the sub body 17A can be housed in the recess 56 of the base body 16 by fitting the protrusion 54 into the guide groove 59. Further, by pulling out the sub body 17A from the recess 56 and placing the rear part of the drawer plate part 51 on the upper cover piece 22, the sub body 17 projects its front part upward from the upper edge of the base body 16 toward the stove 3. You can do it. Note that the hood body can cover the stove 3 by tilting the stove 3 upward when the stove 3 is not in use. Furthermore, the retainer provided on the pivot fixture can also be configured such that an elastic body such as a disc spring is interposed between the connecting fitting and the base body, and the hood body can be held in a tilted state by the biasing force of the spring. It can be transformed into various forms. [Effects of the Invention] As described above, the range hood of the present invention has the intake port facing the recess facing the stove in the hood body, so the stove and the intake port can be brought close to each other, and the logic is shortened. Contamination in the cooking room can be significantly reduced and the indoor environment can be improved. The hood body is attached to the top plate so that it can be tilted toward the stove, and it is equipped with a pivot device that has a retainer, so dirt such as oil generated from the stove can be caught in an appropriate position, and the hood body can be tilted toward the stove. Since the position of the cooking device does not shift, it is possible to increase the safety of cooking operations and to efficiently exhaust smoke. Moreover, since the hood body has a sub-body that can protrude from the upper part of the base toward the stove, it is possible to further improve the smoke exhaust efficiency and effectively prevent the scattering of dirt such as oil. Furthermore, since the hood body includes a sub-body, by storing the sub-body in the base body, the thickness can be reduced and the hood body can be made smaller. Furthermore, it is possible to cover the stove when it is lit and when it is not in use.
