The exhaust hood assembly has a vertically disposed greast extractor which leads into a suction ventilator adapted for expelling air and odor to the outside. The assembly has a first deflector at the entrance into the grease extractor to cause a first swirl of the air loaded with grease, impurities and odors, and a first release thereof into a bucket provided below the greast extractor. Inside the greast extractor there are two deflectors to cause swirls of the air load with grease and odor and release of grease and particles into the bucket. Finally, any grease and/or impurities not released in the grease extractor are centrifugally expelled by the suction ventilator and sent through a tube which also feeds into the bucket. This device is inexpensive to produce and is much more efficient than those currently in use.

[ I claim:] [1.] A kitchen exhaust hood assembly for removing grease and odor produced above a cooking surface when cooking, which comprises a suction ventilator, a hood, a grease extractor to collect grease and direct odor produced when cooking toward said suction ventilator, and an air discharge duct to expel air and odors to the exterior, wherein said grease extractor is vertically disposed in the front part of the assembly opposite a front portion of the cooking surface in order to accentuate hot air movement coming from the cooking surface, and is in communication with said suction ventilator, said grease extractor beingrectangular in cross-section and includes a front wall, a rear wall, side walls and a top partition, an opening being formed in the rear wall in the upper portion thereof to lead into an entrance of said suction ventilator, air loaded with grease and odor produced by said cooking surface naturally rising towards a rear portion of said hood, a first deflection means is provided at an entrance into said grease extractor to cause said air loaded with grease and odor produced above said cooking surface which has naturally risen upwardly therefrom towards said rear portion of said hood to curve downwardly in the direction of said entrance to penetrate therein, second deflection means are provided inside said grease extractor and arranged to cause said air loaded with grease and odor to swirl around said second deflection means, means enabling first excess grease material centrifugally expelled by said suction ventilator to be removed therefrom, and bucket means to receive second excess grease material released by said first and second deflection means and said first excess grease material expelled by said suction ventilator, said bucket means is shaped to define third deflection means allowing said air loaded with grease and odor to rise above said bucket means and thereafter to swirl around said bucket means downwardly towards an entrance into said grease extractor, said assembly also comprising an enclosure for said suction ventilator, and a tubing connected at a lower portion of said enclosure and terminating above said bucket means, said tubing adapted to feed said expelled grease material into said bucket means.
