Hoods for extracting cooking fumes, comprising first and second suction units

A hood for extracting cooking fumes, the hood comprising:

• a base having an intake opening and facing a hob;
• a conduit connected to said base and presenting a discharge opening placed in fluid communication with said intake opening of said base, said conduit extending along a longitudinal direction (X-X), said discharge opening being arranged on an opposite side of said conduit with respect to said intake opening along the longitudinal direction (X-X);
• a first suction unit and a second suction unit arranged in the conduit and configured to respectively generate a first air flow and a second air flow that cross the conduit from the intake opening to the discharge opening, the first and second suction unit extending in parallel along a depth direction (Z-Z) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X-X);
• wherein the first suction unit is placed closer to the intake opening than the second suction unit, and the second suction unit is spaced from the first suction unit along the longitudinal direction (X-X),
• wherein the first suction unit and the second suction unit are partially overlapping along a transverse direction (Y-Y) that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X-X) and to the depth direction (Z-Z),
• wherein the hood further comprises separating members arranged in the conduit to define a first suction chamber and a second suction chamber,
• wherein each of the first and second suction chambers is placed in fluid communication with the intake opening and the discharge opening,
• wherein the first suction unit is placed in the first suction chamber, and the first air flow crosses the first suction chamber to flow from the intake opening to the discharge opening,
• wherein the second suction unit is placed in the second suction chamber, and the second air flow crosses the second suction chamber to flow from the intake opening to the discharge opening, wherein the separating members comprise a first dividing element and a second dividing element separate from the first dividing element, and
• wherein each of the first dividing element and the second dividing element is substantially L-shaped and comprises a first wall oriented along the longitudinal direction (X-X) and a second wall oriented along the transverse direction (Y-Y), and wherein the first wall of the second dividing element is connected to the second wall of the first dividing element to separate the first suction chamber and the second suction chamber.
