Abstract: The invention describes a heating apparatus comprising at least one heater (9) in which one or more electric heating elements (11) are arranged, and at least one heat transmitter (1), which is connected with the at least one heater (9), comprises heat transmitter surfaces and is formed from an extruded profile (1a, 28, 28a) in which the at least one heater (9) is fitted, in which at least part of the walls (6, 22, 22a) of the extruded profile (1a), which are not in contact with a heating element (11), is provided with openings through which a gaseous or liquid medium can flow through the extruded profile (1a, 28, 28a) in transverse direction to the direction of extrusion (17).

Abstract: A household appliance includes a storage compartment and a useful storage volume that is closable by a door. The door is able to slide into the storage compartment with a guiding system during opening. To simplify the assembly of the household appliance, the useful storage volume is provided in a useful storage volume module while the storage compartment is provided in a storage compartment module. The two modules represent two separate components that are assembled so as to form the household appliance.

Abstract: A household appliance door, which is mounted in a manner that enables it to pivot about a joint axis, has a door handle that can pivot about a door handle axis running parallel to the joint axis. At least one controlling mechanism is associated with the door handle. When the door executes a pivotal movement in a first pivoting direction, the controlling mechanism pivots the door handle in a second pivoting direction opposite the first pivoting direction, as such, reliable actuation of the door handle is achieved. The door handle is pivotally mounted in a bearing housing and the bearing housing extends in an axial direction along the entire door.

Abstract: The invention refers to a motor vehicle heating system comprising several heating elements, several voltage connectors for connecting the heating elements to a supply voltage, and a plug-on connector receptacle in which the voltage connectors are arranged as contact reeds. According to the invention the plug-in connector receptacle is provided with a ground pin for connecting of the motor vehicle heating system to ground.

Abstract: A household device includes a useful storage volume that can be closed by a door and a storage compartment disposed below, above, or to the side of the useful storage volume into which the door can be displaced. The door is associated with a guiding system including at least one slide track, wherein a guiding element associated with the door is guided by displacing the door from a closed position and moving it into the storage compartment. The slide track includes a start section that initially guides the door in an upward direction when it moves out of the closed position. Such a configuration has the same size as conventional household device with an increased useful storage volume.

Abstract: A household appliance has a useful storage volume that can be closed by a door pivotally mounted around a horizontal articulation axis and also has a storage compartment. The door can be displaced in the storage compartment by a guiding system including at least one guiding element associated with the door, the guiding element being guided in a slide track associated with the appliance. To produce an ergonomically economical opening and closing movement of the door, the door is provided with at least one counterweight configuration that, during displacement of the door, exerts a balancing force on the door acting against the weight of the door.

Abstract: A door for household appliances, in particular, a door for cooking appliances, are mounted to pivot about an articulation axis include a door handle that can be pivoted about a door-handle axis that runs parallel to the articulation axis and is connected to at least one control mechanism. When the door is pivoted in a first pivoting direction, the control mechanism pivots the door handle in a second pivoting direction that is opposite to the first. According to the invention, to obtain a reliable actuation of the door handle, a protective device is allocated to the control mechanism and prevents the pivoting motion of the door handle, during the actuation of the latter, from being transmitted to the control mechanism.

Abstract: Household devices that a useful compartment and can be closed by a door provided with a door handle include a storage compartment into which the door can be displaced by guiding system and at least one guiding element associated with the door and guided in a sliding track associated with the household appliance. To be able to operate the door in an ergonomically favorable manner, at least one control mechanism is associated with the door handle. When the door pivots in a first pivoting direction, the control mechanism pivots the door handle in a second pivoting direction counter to the first pivoting direction.
