Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0603537A1] In the case of a smoke extracting hood having a filter and a suction system arranged there behind, and also having a drawer-like pull-out element for enlarging the sucking-in area, this drawer-like pull-out element arranged in front of the fat filter is equipped with a filter element which has a substantially lower flow resistance and a substantially reduced absorption behaviour compared with the actual fat filter arranged after it in the flow direction. <IMAGE>
