  • Patent number: 6313447
    Abstract: A cook top with a frame on which there is secured a cook top panel, in particular made of glass ceramic. A plurality of hot plates is provided which can each be heated by a heating element that is secured beneath the cook top panel. For the positioning of the heating element relative to the frame exactly one positioning element is secured on the frame. The positioning element has at least two spaced-apart connecting elements that engage in two corresponding positioning openings of a heating-element casing of the heating element which is to be positioned. In order to achieve high positional accuracy of the heating-element casing with low outlay, the frame has an installation shoulder that extends essentially parallel to the base of the heating-element casing, and the positioning element is secured in a precisely positioned manner on the installation shoulder.

  • Patent number: 6207934
    Abstract: A cook top with a cook top panel, in particular a cook top panel made of glass ceramic, which is secured on a metallic, single-piece installation frame. The frame has side walls that extend essentially perpendicularly to the cook top panel and which has, on a base side, an installation shoulder which extends parallel to the cook top panel, at a spacing from the cook top panel. The installation shoulder surrounds a large-surface-area base opening formed in the installation frame. The installation shoulder is provided with component openings for securing components of the cook top. In order for it to be possible to configure the installation frame in the simplest possible manner in production terms, the installation frame is configured as a bent part. In this case, at least four side walls are configured as individual side-wall sections which are separate from one another and are each bent individually at right angles from the installation shoulder around a periphery.
