Abstract: A control device for an electrical heating device for a cooking field with a cooking field plate comprises an electro-mechanical switching device for adjusting a power of said heating device with different power levels and comprises two different heating element. The switching device is configured so that starting from a zero-position and rotating in a first rotation direction, a power level for a first heating element is adjusted in a cooking-mode. Rotation in the other direction activates a second heating element in a warm-keeping mode with significantly lower power. A relay is closed by a thermomechanical temperature sensing device below a defined switching temperature of 60° C. to 100° C. and opened above the switching temperature. When closed, the relay connects the two heating elements to an operating voltage for common operation. When opened, the first heating element is switched off for exclusive operation of the second heating element.

Abstract: An electrical heating device for a cooking field with a cooking field plate is arranged beneath the cooking field plate and comprises a support, wherein along a rim of said support a rim part in ring form is placed. The heating device comprises a longitudinal heating element for generating heating power for said cooking field to keep food warm that is placed in a saucepan upon it above the heating device. The heating element is arranged in a circumferential groove in said support. In a direction radially inwardly to a central region over the support a gap is provided between the rim part and the support for heating power from said heating element to exit into the central region as a heating of the cooking field plate above the heating device.

Abstract: An electrical heating device has an integrally manufactured support made from insulating material. Depressed paths for introducing a heating element are provided. A klixon functioning as a thermally actuated switch is inserted from above into an opening in the central area of the support and its electrical terminals project over the bottom side and are bent round for mechanical fixing.

Abstract: A heating device for a cooking field is arranged beneath a cooking field plate, wherein the heating device comprises a temperature sensor and a wire heating element for generating heating power. The temperature sensor is provided between the heating element and the cooking field plate and has a longitudinal and rod-like sensing part. The heating element is arranged directly beneath and aligned with the sensing part such that the sensing part is exposed to heating power from the heating element. The heating power ranges in power from 0.5 W up to 2.5 W per centimeter of length of the sensing part. This serves for a faster activation of a residual heat indicator by the temperature sensor.

Abstract: An electrical heating device has an integrally manufactured support made from an insulating material. A depressed path is provided for the introduction of a coiled round heating element into the support. In the bottom side of the support, additional depressions are made in support and pass into the depressed path and form undercuts. In the area of the undercuts the heating element is flattened in the path and thereby pressed into the undercuts and consequently can be no longer moved out of said path.

Abstract: A controller of a hob is connected to a temperature sensor of a radiation based heating element. In principle, two different groups of temperature sensors can be used, whose resistance values differ by approximately a factor of three. When the hob is first used, the resistance of the temperature sensor is measured at room temperature and is classified in one of the two groups of temperature sensors on the basis of a limit value between the two typical temperature profiles of the groups of temperature sensors. On the basis of this, calibration of the controller is carried out for the purpose of adjusting to the established group to which the temperature sensor belongs.

An elongate and tubular temperature sensor having a temperature sensitive element in a glass envelope extends along the support and is embedded therein to such a degree so as to project only slightly upwards. Ends of the temperature sensor with connections extend to the edge of the support or even project beyond.

Abstract: A control is provided for switching on and off two heating devices of a hob forming a hotplate. In cyclic manner the continuous energy or power generation level can be adjusted by an energy control device. A temperature limiter monitors a maximum temperature via the first heating device, but not via the second heating device. The energy control device controls the first heating device directly or switches the same. The temperature limiter trips a power relay in order to switch the second heating device simultaneously with the first heating device.

Abstract: An appliance for a hotplate has two heating devices installed parallel to one another. With an energy control device and as a function of an angular position, either a first heating device is operated in controlled manner or a second heating device is connected thereto in fixed form. The power of the second heating device is defined so low that no temperature limiter for protecting a glass ceramic plate has to be provided in the control path of the second heating device. On connecting in the second heating device, the controlled power of the first heating device is lowered to an initial value by roughly the amount of the power of the second heating device. The total power results from the summated power of the two heating devices.

Abstract: A radiant heater is provided, which is subdivided into three concentric areas and which can be mounted under a glass ceramic cooking area. It has a rod controller and the two innermost heating areas are jointly protected against excess temperatures by means of the rod controller. The outermost heating area has a low surface power of 2.5 W/cm2, for example, and consequently does not have to be monitored by the rod regulator with regards to the danger of an excess temperature for a glass ceramic cooking area.

Abstract: An electric radiant heater (11, 111) is provided having an active sensor (21, 121) for detecting the position of a cooking vessel on a glass ceramic plate over the radiant heater (11, 111). The sensor (21, 121) is mad from electrically conductive material and is part of an inductive resonant circuit of a control operating by resonant circuit detuning. It also covers a heating zone (17, 117) of the radiant heater (11, 111). The sensor (21, 121) runs substantially linearly and, unlike conventional sensor coils, has a loopless construction. It is e.g. possible to stretch a wire (121) or also to use the tube (21) of a rod regulator.
