Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to flues which are used in cooking devices.
Prior Art
[0002] The known cooking devices of prior art are preferably provided with a flue to eliminate
hot air from internal ambiance of the device after cooking. Said flue is directed
to air well and thus, hot air is removed from the ambiance of the device.
[0003] Said devices are provided preferably close to a wall where they are used. Therefore,
usually the flue, at the back of the device, is provided very close to the wall. In
this case, the heat of the hot air in the flue is substantially transferred to the
wall. Heat transfer leads to thermal corrosion, may cause deformation of wall structure
and flaking of wall layers. Hence, it is important not to transfer aforesaid heat
to the wall.
[0004] In the patent document No
JP 2007024324 A, which discloses one of the known methods of prior art about the problem, a cold
water line is located around the flue. The hot air passing through the flue is cooled
with the cold water passing through the line and discharged; thus, the damages of
the hot air are avoided. However, the said art causes a large amount of water consumption
so it is not useful.
[0005] Document No
JP2003185154 A discloses a hot air guard. Said hot air guard, being fastened to the wall, prevents
the contact of the hot air with the wall. Although the said protection saves the wall,
it gives rise to loss of place and unaesthetic view.
Brief Description of the Invention
[0006] The cooking device of present invention comprises one flue system comprising at least
one cooking compartment, and a chamber connected to this cooking compartment and located
on the device; in this chamber, at least one insulation element which is adjacently
located at the face of the chamber close to outside of the device, and at least one
flue pipe stretching from the cooking compartment to the chamber.
[0007] The device of the present invention prevents the effects of the hot air released
after cooking and which leads to corrosion on the wall which the device is close to.
Moreover, the solution is cost effective and easily assembled.
Objective of the Invention
[0008] The aim of the present invention is to develop a cooking device which reduces the
external effects of the hot air released from the device.
[0009] Another aim of the present invention is to develop a cooking device comprising easily
assembled and cost effective flue system.

Description of the Invention
[0012] The cooking device (F) of present invention, exemplary embodiments of which are illustrated
in Figure 1-5, comprises one flue system (A) comprising at least one cooking compartment
(F1), and a chamber (1) connected to this cooking compartment (F1) and located on
the device (F); in this chamber (1), at least one insulation element (4) which is
adjacently located at the face (1 b) of the chamber (1) close to outer portion of
the device (F); and at least one flue pipe (2) extending from the cooking compartment
(F1) to the chamber (4).
[0013] In the developed flue system (A), hot air created in the cooking compartment (F1)
is transferred to the chamber (1) via flue pipe (2). Said chamber (1) ensures discharge
of the accumulated air from one single outlet (not shown). The insulation element
(4) in the said chamber (1) prevents the contact of the accumulated hot air with the
outer face (1 b) and thus it (4) prevents direct transfer of heat of the air to the
outside.
[0014] The insulation element (4), which is located at the face (1b) of the chamber (1)
close to outer portion of the device (F), in the chamber (1), prevents the transfer
of the heat of the hot air accumulated in the chamber (1) to the outer environment.
Insulation element (4) preferably comprises high thermal insulation materials such
as rock wool, fiberglass, etc. Thus, insulation element (4) ensures heat protection
at both sides and prevents direct heat transfer from one side to another.
[0015] In the exemplary embodiment of the invention at Figure 4- 5, chamber (1) comprises
at least one front panel (3) provided on the device (F) and at least one outer casing
(5) connected to this panel (3). This panel (3) and outer casing (5) are preferably
fixed into each other. Therefore, the two-piece structure allows easy assembly of
the flue mechanism (A).
[0016] At least one fixing element (5a) which fixes the insulation element (4) is situated
preferably on the chamber (1) in accordance with the location of the insulation element
(4). The fixing element (5a) ensures the protection of the insulation efficiency by
maintaining the position of the insulation element (4).
[0017] The flue system (A) of the invention prevents the external damages which are inflicted
by the hot air created by the cooking devices (F). Moreover, the system (A) finds
cost effective and easily assembled solutions to the problems of prior art.
