  • Patent number: 7513247
    Abstract: A control system for adjusting the heat output of at least one gas burner. The control system including at least one control organ in a gas main line feeding the gas burner for adjusting the gas throughput supplied to the gas burner nozzle. The control system further including at least one secondary line in parallel with the control organ with a shut-off organ for opening and closing the secondary line. The secondary line having a lower flow resistance than the flow resistance in the control organ line.

  • Publication number: 20080276923
    Abstract: A gas cooking hob comprising a number of gas burners, each of which is connected to a main gas pipe via a gas pipe section, and a main switch. The main gas pipe or the gas pipe section is open to supply gas to the gas burners when the main switch is actuated while a gas supply to the gas burners is interrupted when the main switch is actuated once again. In order to be able to jointly interrupt gas supply to all gas burners even without the user acting directly upon the main switch, a timing member is assigned to the main switch in order to adjust an interval after which the main switch closes automatically.

  • Publication number: 20080216810
    Abstract: A gas cooking hob comprising at least one gas burner, a main pipe for supplying gas, a main nozzle on the gas burner, and a control device for adjusting the heating power of the gas burner between a minimum power and a nominal power. In order to further develop said gas cooking hob, a timing member is provided which allows the heating power to be increased beyond the nominal power during a certain interval.

  • Publication number: 20060118100
    Abstract: A gas cooking hob and a method of operating the hob including at least two physical cooking points and at least one electronic control component. A second one of the two cooking points located at a greater distance from the electronic control component than the first cooking point. The first cooking point is rendered inoperational or its calorific output is reduced when a first threshold temperature of the electronic control component is exceeded. The second cooking point is remains operational or its calorific output remains unchanged.
