Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for holding a built-in hob, in particular a glass ceramic hob, in a section of a hob receptacle provided therefor, with a hob housing which carries the heating device and can be fastened from above via holding means in the hob receptacle, and a hob top part, comprising a frame with a hob , which can be placed on the hob housing from above and secured in a snap-in manner by means of clamping connection means.
  • clamping springs are attached to the side of the cooktop frame, which have corresponding holding means attached to the cut-out sides of the cooktop receptacle and pointing horizontally inwards, such as, for. B. round pins, interact.
  • the clamping springs themselves are held laterally displaceably via a clamping connection on the hob frame.
  • the built-in hob known from DE 93 01 942 U1 differs from the arrangement described above only in that the clamping springs are not on the hob frame, but on the cutout sides of the hob holder, and the corresponding holding means, in this case locking lugs, on the side of the hob frame and not in the hob holder are arranged.
  • the border frame for the cooking surface has locking pins on the outer edge on, which can be brought into engagement with corresponding snap-in receptacles which are firmly connected to the hob housing.
  • the locking pins are pressed into the locking receptacles, whereby a downward force acts on the locking pins, which results in a secure fit of the cooking surface with the frame, particularly on the circumferential seal arranged between the components.
  • a disadvantage of this known device is that the locking receptacles must be attached to the hob housing.
  • a further disadvantage is that, in addition to the complicated and expensive snap-in receptacles, the hob housing must also be connected to the worktop cutout by means of further fastening elements. Overall, this means a high manufacturing and assembly effort.
  • the object of the invention is to further develop the known mounting arrangement for a cooktop with a two-part construction in such a way that the same effect is achieved with simpler constructional means with significantly less assembly effort.
  • a mounting arrangement according to the preamble of claim 6, which is characterized in that the hob housing has openings through which the holding means for fastening the hob housing in the hob receptacle pass, and that guide sleeves for these holding means are attached to these openings are which, when the top of the hob is placed on the hob housing, can be brought into engagement with corresponding two-leg springs which are attached all round to the top of the hob.
  • the holder arrangements according to the invention are characterized by a simple and stable structure. Because the holding means for fastening the hob housing or the guide sleeves for these holding means on the hob housing are at the same time designed as clamping connection means for fastening the cooking surface / frame construction, the arrangement of separate corresponding clamping connection means in the hob housing can be dispensed with entirely. This significantly reduces the amount of work involved in manufacturing a hob housing.
  • FIG. 1 shows a cooktop holder, here a worktop cut-out on the outer edge of which a cooktop housing (2) is attached.
  • a border frame here consisting of a viewing frame (4) and a holding frame (5), with a cooking surface (6).
  • the cooking surface (6) is with a temperature-resistant, permanently elastic, all-round profile (7), for. B. made of silicone, clamped between the viewing frame (4) and the holding frame (5).
  • the connection between (4) and (5) takes place in this case via a fixed connection (4a), e.g. B. by a rivet attachment, or by spot welding.
  • a detachable connection is also possible.
  • the hob housing (2) which contains the heating elements and the wiring, is inserted into the worktop cut-out (1).
  • the hob housing (2) is screwed in Figure 1 with a wood screw (3a), on which a sleeve (3b) is attached, to the edge of the worktop (1).
  • the hob top (4, 5) with the cooking surface (6) is then only inserted into the hob housing (2) and pressed evenly downwards.
  • the holding means (3), here (3a) and (3b) represent the receptacle for the clamping connection element (8), as a result of which a force-locking, releasable connection is created.
  • the hob housing (2) is characterized by a simple structure. It is not necessary to provide additional clamping connection means in the hob housing (2).
  • the section of the holding means (3) designed as a clamping connection means points horizontally into the interior of the hob housing (2).
  • the holding means (3) can also be designed so that this section is located between the outer wall of the hob housing (2) and the hob holder (1).
  • the latter variant is more complex to implement.
  • screws (3a) are provided in FIG. 1 as holding means for fastening the hob housing (2) to the worktop edge, the section of the holding means (3) designed as a clamping connection element being simply by a sleeve (3b) placed on the screw shaft. is realized. With this round pin-shaped part, two-leg fields (8), which are fastened as corresponding clamping connection elements on the upper part of the hob, are brought into engagement in FIG.
  • the invention is in no way limited to this special type of clamp connection. This is only a preferred embodiment of the invention. Snap-in lugs and corresponding snap-in receptacles and similar devices that produce a clip-in connection can also be used as the clamping connection elements. It is also possible, albeit more complex, the portion of the holding means projecting into the hob housing for fastening the hob housing to the edge of the worktop as a clamping spring, e.g. B. two-leg spring, form and attach the round pins which can be brought into engagement with the two-leg springs on the hob top. There are no limits to the multitude of possible variations.
  • a clamping spring e.g. B. two-leg spring
  • the combination of two-leg spring and round pin-shaped part of the holding means protruding horizontally into the interior of the hob housing for fastening the hob housing in the hob holder has the advantage that, depending on the length of the round pin-shaped part or the width of the spring legs, tolerances perpendicular to the edges of the hob holder can be easily compensated for .
  • the corresponding clamping connection means are advantageously arranged to be displaceable relative to one another along the side edges. As will be shown further below, this can be done in a simple manner Reach a guide slot (8a) in the two-leg spring (8), which runs parallel to the respectively assigned side edge of the hob holder (1) and via which the spring on the corresponding part of the built-in hob, in Figure 1 on the holding frame (5), along the side edge slidable, attached.
  • Figure 2 shows, without restricting generality, a variant of Figure 1, in which only the fixed connection (4a) between the viewing frame (4) and the holding frame (5) has been replaced by a detachable connection (4b).
  • This type of connection has the advantage that, for example, the cooking surface (6) can be replaced on site in the event of service.
  • FIG 3 shows a further variant, in which the cooking surface (6) with the border frame, here consisting only of the over the cooking surface (6) overlapping frame (4), non-positively and permanently elastic, for. B. with silicone, glued all around (see gluing (12)).
  • flat clamping connection means (8) here flat spring elements made of spring jet or spring wire, as shown in FIG. 7 d and FIG. 7 e, are provided without restriction of generality, which are rigidly connected to the frame (4) via connecting means (9a).
  • connecting means (9a) a non-positive, releasable connection to the holding means (3) or (3a, 3b) and thus to the hob housing (2) is established.
  • FIG. 4 shows a further variant of the holding arrangement according to the invention, in which the holding frame (5) is connected to the hob housing (2) (for example spot-welded or via a rivet connection or via a detachable connection).
  • the holding frame (5) is connected to the hob housing (2) (for example spot-welded or via a rivet connection or via a detachable connection).
  • the cooktop housing (2) in the cooktop holder (1) is fastened with the holding means (3) or (3a, 3b)
  • an all-round temperature-resistant, permanently elastic sealing profile (7) e.g. B. made of silicone
  • the spring elements shown in FIGS. 7d and 7e can each reach through slot-shaped punch openings (5b) in the holding frame (5).
  • the bending tabs (5c) punched out on one side and bent up serve at the same time as adjustment aids when inserting the cooking surface (6) with the seal (7). It is advantageous here that the cooktop and frame assembly can be easily dismantled into the individual parts for servicing as well as for recycling.
  • FIG 5 shows a variant in which the hob top consists only of the holding frame (5).
  • the cooking surface (6) is non-positively and permanently elastic connected to the holding frame (5) via an adhesive connection (12).
  • Figure 6 shows a variant of Figure 5, in which the cooking surface (6) is only glued on the front (12a).
  • the cooking surface (6) lies on a permanently elastic support (13).
  • the cooking surface (6) can be easily separated from the holding frame (5) with a knife in the event of servicing or for recycling with almost no adhesive.
  • Figure 7b shows in detail a special design option for the clamping connection element (8) and its attachment to the hob top (4, 5).
  • the spring elements (8) are arranged all around in recessed, rectangular recesses (5d) in the hob top, e.g. B. clipped in the holding frame (5) or viewing frame (4).
  • the locking elements (8b) arranged on the side of the clamping connection element (8) result in a non-positive, but - with somewhat oversized recess (5d) - still slightly flexible connection to the frame.
  • FIG. 7c shows a further fastening variant of the clamping elements (8) on the border frame.
  • slot-like openings are punched out all round (5b) in such a way that, as shown in FIG. 7c, a punching tab (14) remains.
  • This is bent vertically downwards and then the clamping connection element (8) with the guide slot (8a) (see FIG. 7a) is attached.
  • the spring element (8) is locked in such a way that it can move freely along the frame and can compensate for tolerances during assembly.
  • FIG. 8a to d show different design options of the holding means (3), z. B. in the form of a one-piece screw bolt for flat-head screwdrivers (Figure 8a) or Phillips screwdriver (not shown here), for Allen keys (Figure 8b) or for socket wrenches (Figure 8d).
  • FIG. 8c shows the holding means (3) in the form of a simple wood screw (3a) with a sleeve (3b).
  • FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment of the invention, in which the holding frame (5) is designed as a U-profile and is releasably connected to the viewing frame (4) spanning the cooking surface by means of connecting means (4b).
  • the cooking surface (6) is clamped between the holding frame (5) and the viewing frame (4) with the U-shaped sealing profile (7), which is attached to the edge of the cooking surface (see also FIG. 2).
  • FIG. 10 shows a further inventive mounting arrangement.
  • the openings in the hob housing (2), through which the holding means (3) for fastening the hob housing (2) in the hob holder (1) pass are provided with guide sleeves (3c).
  • the holding means (3) can be the holding means described above, for example those shown in FIG. 8.
  • the guide sleeves (3c) and not the holding means (3) represent the clamp connection means corresponding to the clamp connection means on the top of the hob.
  • the guide sleeves (3c) are used to produce the clamp connection, as shown in the figure, with the all-round on the top of the hob attached two-leg springs engaged.
  • the guide sleeves (3c) can both be arranged on the cooktop housing (2) pointing inwards, but they can also be fitted on the outside of the cooktop housing (2) facing the cooktop holder (1), as shown in FIG. 10.
  • the latter has the advantage that the guide sleeves (3c) can also serve as spacers between the hob housing (2) and the hob holder (1). This eliminates the punched-out spacers (2a) shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 5 and 9.
  • the guide sleeves (3c) can be attached to the hob housing (2) in any desired manner, for example they can be welded on for the sake of simplicity.
  • the border frame can be in two parts, namely consisting of a viewing frame and a mounting frame, whereby it can also be advantageous, as shown in FIG. 10, to attach the mounting frame to the hob housing (for example by spot welding or via rivet connection or a detachable connection) ) and the viewing frame with cooking surface, which has the clamping connection means, to be plugged onto the hob housing with the holding frame (see also FIG. 4 with description).
