  • Patent number: 10436452
    Abstract: A gas burner arrangement for a hotplate includes at least two gas burners, each gas burner having operably connected thereto a gas valve for regulating a combustion gas flow to the gas burners, and a thermoelement for monitoring a flame of the gas burners. The thermoelement is coupled to the gas valve by an electrical circuit, such that when the flame of the associated gas burner is extinguished, the combustion gas flow to the gas burner is interrupted with the aid of the gas valve. Each electrical circuit includes a mechanically actuatable switch configured to couple or decouple the electrical circuit between the associated thermoelement and the associated gas valve. The mechanically actuatable switch includes a contact element having a noble metal. A shared actuation element controls the mechanically actuatable switches of the electric circuits.
