  • Patent number: 11757447
    Abstract: A sensor element device for an operating device having a luminous display comprises a sensor element for a capacitive touch switch, a light guide for the luminous display, having an input region and an emission region, and light-nontransmissive shielding material which encloses the light guide except for the input region and the emission region. It furthermore comprises a lower side and an upper side, as well as at least one metallic sensor element. The sensor element extends from the lower side to the upper side. The sensor element device forms an integrated module with the light guide, shielding material and sensor element. The sensor element projects as far as a plane of the lower side. No part of the sensor element device protrudes downward.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10342075
    Abstract: An induction heating device including two induction heating coils and a plug-type contact device has a flat coil carrier for the induction heating coils, the plug-type contact device being arranged on the bottom face of the coil carrier with an insertion direction perpendicular to the surface of the coil carrier. The plug-type contact device has, on the bottom face of the coil carrier, a plug housing being movable with a defined movement travel in a plane parallel to the surface of the coil carrier. The plug housing has four receiving chambers being open at the bottom and having a direction of extent parallel to the insertion direction, in each of which a plug-type contact is arranged. A contact-making line runs from the plug-type contact to the induction heating coil.
