Abstract: A system includes a core temperature probe and a microwave cooking device. The core temperature probe includes a temperature sensor to determine a temperature information, a coaxial line including a lambda/4 line resonance element adjusted to a microwave frequency, and a signal transmission antenna connected to the temperature sensor via the coaxial line and adapted to emit the temperature information at a signal transmission frequency that differs from the microwave frequency. The system is hereby constructed to transmit a signal at the signal transmission frequency wirelessly between the signal transmission antenna of the core temperature probe and a signal transmission antenna of the microwave cooking appliance.

Abstract: A household PEF cooking appliance includes a cooking product container fillable with liquid and cooking product and including, on its inner faces, a plurality of mutually insulated electrodes. An excitation device supplies at least two of the plurality of electrodes with pulsed electric signals, and a resistance measuring device applies a measuring signal to at least two of the plurality of the electrodes in order to measure an associated current signal and to determine a resistance value of a content of the cooking product container. A control device operates the excitation device and the resistance measuring device separately and operates the excitation device based on the resistance value.

Abstract: A household PEF cooking device includes a cooking product container which can be filled with liquid and includes PEF electrodes which lie opposite one another and between which a cooking product can be introduced. A PEF signal generator applies PEF signals to the PEF electrodes, and a control device control the PEF signal generator. An IR sensor which measures contactlessly is disposed at a distance from the PEF electrodes and connected to the control device. A measuring dot of the IR sensor encompasses an outer face of an electrically conductive region of a wall of the cooking product container, which electrically conductive region can be contacted on an inner face by the liquid when the cooking product container is full.

Abstract: A household appliance includes a compartment, a door for closing the compartment, a non-movable part, and a door monitoring apparatus including a contact pair which has two contact parts. One of the two contact parts is arranged on the door and the other one of the two contact parts is arranged on the non-movable part of the household appliance.

Abstract: A removable container for a product to be cooked for use in a PEF cooking appliance has a treatment chamber including at least two PEF electrodes between which a product to be cooked can be introduced and to which PEF signals pulsed with alternating polarity can be applied. Further provided are a sensor and a sensor circuit which includes an energy supply device configured without battery and DC-isolated from the PEF cooking appliance, an evaluation circuit connected to the sensor and the energy supply device, and a data transmission device connected to the evaluation circuit and the energy supply device. The data transmission device is configured to transmit data received from the evaluation circuit to the PEF cooking appliance in a non-electrical manner.

Abstract: A household PEF cooking appliance includes a container for food to be cooked, opposing outer PEF electrodes disposed in the container, and a partition variably disposed in the container between the outer PEF electrodes and oriented parallel to the outer PEF electrodes.

Abstract: An operator control panel for a household appliance includes an operator control front, a panel carrier supporting the operator control front and having a recess, and a haptic actuator guided through the recess of the panel carrier for coupling to the operator control front so that during an operator control procedure of the operator control panel the haptic actuator outputs a haptic signal as feedback to a user in response to the operator control procedure via the operator control front.

Abstract: A PEF cooking appliance includes a PEF generator, and a carrier configured to receive a storage container for food. The carrier includes at least two PEF electrodes spaced apart to enable insertion of the storage container there between. At least one the PEF electrodes is connected to the PEF generator. The carrier is embodied as a drawer with a top cover pivotably attached thereto The drawer includes a base, with one of the two PEF electrodes being integrated into the base of the drawer and another one of the two PEF electrodes being integrated into the cover of the drawer.

Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a cooking chamber for cooking a product to be cooked. An air-guiding plate is arranged in the cooking chamber and coupled by a coupling device to a transmitter/receiver unit which transmits and/or receives a high frequency signal. The air-guiding plate is configured as a planar antenna for transmitting the high frequency signal between the coupling device and a sensor that can be arranged in the cooking chamber.
