  • Patent number: 6498325
    Abstract: A modular induction heated cooking hob inductor and hob are disclosed. The inductor is a wound conductor having turns at substantially right angles to previous turns. Parallel turns of the conductor are separated by a layer of insulation adjacent to the turns of the conductor. The hob may comprise multiple inductors. The inductor may have sensors for detecting a device to be heated and/or illuminatable segments that light up in response to the presence of an object to be heated.
