Kitchen Device Comprising Two Body Parts

Abstract

A kitchen device includes a first body part, to be fixedly mounted, a second body part, mobile in relation to the first body part, and a locking mechanism for locking the second body part in a locked position. In order to provide a kitchen device of the aforementioned kind that can be flexibly adapted to the space available in a kitchen, the locking mechanism is adjustable.

1 - 11 . (canceled)  
   
   
       12 . A kitchen extractor device comprising: 
 a body including a first body part adapted to be mounted in a fixed manner to a support structure and a second body part displaceably mounted relative to the first body part, the second body part being displaceable in motion relative to the first body part along a displacement direction from a rearward position into a forward position and being displaceably movable relative to the first body part along a direction opposite to the displacement direction from the forward position into the rearward position; and    a locking mechanism for releasably locking the second body part in a locking position relative to the first body part, the locking mechanism having adjustability of release to permit displacement movement of the second body part and lockable to lock the second body part in a selected position relative to the first body part.    
   
   
       13 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein a locking mechanism has at least one locking means which forms a stop element for limiting a range of movement of the second body part.  
   
   
       14 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 13 , wherein the locking mechanism comprises at least two retainers for a locking means, each of which is assigned to a locking position.  
   
   
       15 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 12  and further comprising at least one lining means for lining one of the retainers.  
   
   
       16 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 13 , wherein the locking mechanism comprises at least one latching means for latching the second body part in the locking position.  
   
   
       17 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 13 , wherein the locking mechanism comprises a first locking means disposed on the first body part and a second locking means disposed on the second body part.  
   
   
       18 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein a second body part is displaceable relative to the first body part in a horizontal direction.  
   
   
       19 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 18 , wherein the second body part comprises at least one retaining means for retaining a lighting device.  
   
   
       20 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 18 , wherein the second body part is provided such that it can move in at least one direction automatically relative to the first body part.  
   
   
       21 . The kitchen device as claimed in  claim 12  and further comprising a resetting means for resetting the second body part to a home position.  
   
   
       22 . A method for installing a kitchen device comprising: 
 in a body of the kitchen device including a first body part adapted to be mounted in a fixed manner to a support structure and a second body part displacebly mounted relative to the first body part, the second body part being displaceably movable relative to the first body part along a displacement direction from a rearward position into a forward position and being displaceably movable relative to the first body part along a direction opposite to the displacement direction from the forward position into the rearward position and a locking mechanism for releasably locking the second body part in a locking position relative to the first body part, the locking mechanism being adjustably releasable to permit displacement movement of the second body part and lockable to lock the second body part in a selected position relative to the first body part, displacing the second body part relative to the first body part; and    actuating the locking mechanism to lock the second body part in a selected position relative to the first body part after displacing the second body part relative to the first body part
