(54) HOB DEVICE


(57) A hob device (100) comprising
• a hob (102) having an opening (108),
• an extraction device arranged below the hob (102) and having a fan (110) for extracting cooking fumes from above the hob (102) through the opening (108),
• an odor filter assembly (114) disposed in the direction of flow of the cooking fumes between the opening (108) and the fan (110),

wherein the odor filter assembly (114) comprises an odor filter housing (116) and at least one odor filter (118, 118'), and
the odor filter housing (116) has at least one abutment surface (116b; 116g) for lateral abutment of an associated odor filter (118, 118'),
the odor filter housing (116) comprises latch connection means (116c) and the at least one odor filter (118) comprises latch connection counter means (118a, 118a') adapted and intended to cooperate with the latch connection means (116c) of the odor filter housing (116) to hold the at least one odor filter (118, 118') to the odor filter housing (116), and
the odor filter housing (116) has, above the at least one support surface (116a) and at least partially within the at least one abutment surface (116b), a recess (116e) whose lower boundary surface forms a further support surface (116f) and whose lateral boundary surface forms a further abutment surface (116g), and
the at least one odor filter (118') is dimensioned such that it protrudes from the further support surface (116f) and is supported by the further support surface (116f) when its latch connection counter means (118a') cooperate with the latch connection means (116c) of the odor filter housing (116).
