(54) Integrated range hood with safety device


(57) The present disclosure relates to a downdraft range hood, i.e. a downward fume exhausting hood integrated in the cooktop. The hood is characterized in that the hood moving frame comprises a pair of columns (6, 7) which vertically extend in a box-like housing (1), with their respective free ends (26) facing its bottom (4). The free end (28) of each column is equipped with a respective elastic member (26), forming an axial extension of each column (6, 7), said elastic member (26) being adapted to react between said free end (28) of each column and the bottom (4) of said box-like housing (1). The hood frame will be thus biased out of the housing, with a bias equal to about 20% of the overall weight of the hood.
