Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Glaskeramikkochfeld gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a glass ceramic hob according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus US-A 6 067 980 ist ein gattungsgemäßes Kochfeld mit zwei benachbarten Glaskeramikplatten gezeigt Zwischen den Rändern der benachbarten Glaskeramikplatten ist ein Zwischenraum ausgebildet. Gegenüberliegend zu diesem Zwischenraum sind Bedienelemente angeordnet. In der DE 43 33 334 A1 wird eine Platte aus Glaskeramik als Bestandteil eines regelbaren elektrisch- und/oder gasbeheizten Kochgerätes beschrieben, bei der mindestens ein Teilbereich der einstückigen Platte von der Hauptebene der Platte abweicht. In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist dieser Teilbereich nach oben und dann parallel zur Hauptebene umgebogen. Der parallel zur Hauptebene verlaufende Teilbereich dient als Schalterblende mit Durchbrechungen für Bedienelemente und Anzeigen. Die komplette Platte einschließlich des abgebogenen Bereiches sind vollständig dicht in den Kochfeldrahmen eingesetzt. So sind keine Öffnungen für Zu- oder Abluft vorhanden. Weiterhin befinden sich bei dieser Ausführung die Bedienelemente und Anzeigen in unmittelbarer Nähe der Kochstellen. Die Größe der Kochfelder ist damit bei vorgegebenen Gesamtabmaßen für das Glaskeramikkochfeld beschränkt. Im Zusammenhang mit Induktionskochgeräten mit einer Glaskeramikkochfläche ist es durch die DE 295 00 051 U1 bekannt, die die Kochfläche bildende Glaskeramikplatte unter Bildung eines Luftauslasses zwischen ihr und dem Kochfeldrahmen im hinteren Teil abzubiegen. Der abgebogene Bereich ist dabei mit dem Kochfeldrahmen durch Silikonbelege abfedernd verbunden. Auch bei dieser Lösung sind die Bedienelemente, so sie denn in die Glaskeramikplatte integriert sind, in unmittelbarer Nähe der Kochstellen angeordnet.From US-A 6 067 980 a generic cooktop with two adjacent glass ceramic plates is shown. Between the edges of the adjacent glass ceramic plates, a gap is formed. Opposite to this gap controls are arranged. In DE 43 33 334 A1 a plate made of glass ceramic is described as part of a controllable electrically and / or gas-fired cooking appliance, wherein at least a portion of the one-piece plate deviates from the main plane of the plate. In a preferred embodiment, this portion is bent upwards and then parallel to the main plane. The partial area extending parallel to the main level serves as a switch panel with openings for operating elements and displays. The complete plate, including the bent portion, is fully seated in the hob frame. There are no openings for supply or exhaust air. Furthermore, the controls and displays are located in the immediate vicinity of the hobs in this design. The size of the cooktops is thus limited at given overall dimensions for the glass ceramic cooktop. In connection with induction cooking appliances with a glass ceramic cooking surface, it is known from DE 295 00 051 U1 to bend the cooking surface forming glass ceramic plate to form an air outlet between it and the hob frame in the back. The bent area is connected to the hob frame by silicone pads cushioning. Also in this solution, the controls, as they are integrated because in the glass ceramic plate, arranged in the immediate vicinity of the cooking zones.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, bei regelbaren elektrisch- und/oder gasbeheizten Gaskochgeräten bekannter Abmaße, die Kochfelder bzw. Topfträger größer dimensionierbar zu machen und ein sicheres Anbringen der Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente im Bereich der Glaskeramikplatte zu gewährleisten.The object of the invention is to make the cooktops or pot carrier larger dimensionable in controllable electrically and / or gas-fired gas cookers of known dimensions and to ensure a secure attachment of the control and display elements in the glass ceramic plate.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe mit einem Glaskeramikkochfeld mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1. Zwischen dem seitlichen Bereich und der Arbeitsplatte ist zumindest ein Zwischenraum vorgesehen, der einen Raum unterhalb des Glaskeramikplatte mit einer äußeren Umgebung des Glaskeramikkochfelds verbindet. Dadurch wird eine Luftkonvektionsströmung zwischen dem Raum unterhalb des Glaskeramikplatte und der äußeren Umgebung des Glaskeramikkochfelds erzeugt. Mittels der Luftkonvektionsströmung können Funktionselemente des Kochfelds unterhalb der Glaskeramikplatte sowie die Bedienelemente und/oder Anzeigen gekühlt werden.This object is achieved with a glass ceramic hob with the features of claim 1. Between the Side area and the worktop, at least one space is provided, which connects a space below the glass ceramic plate with an outer environment of the glass ceramic cooktop. As a result, an air convection flow is generated between the space below the glass ceramic plate and the outside environment of the glass ceramic hob. By means of the air convection flow functional elements of the hob below the glass ceramic plate and the controls and / or displays can be cooled.

Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können die Bedienelemente und/oder Anzeigen zumindest teilweise in dem Zwischenraum angeordnet sein. Dadurch werden die Bedienelemente und/oder Anzeigen zumindest teilweise von der Luftkonvektionsströmung umströmt und somit effektiv gekühlt.According to one embodiment of the invention, the controls and / or displays may be at least partially disposed in the space. As a result, the operating elements and / or displays are at least partially flowed around by the air convection flow and thus effectively cooled.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Glaskeramikkochfeld, das in bekannter Weise zur Montage in einer Arbeitsplatte vorgesehen ist und das aus einem Kochfeldrahmen mit Glaskeramikplatte besteht, kann der seitliche Teilbereich den Ausschnittsbereich der Arbeitsplatte mit einem Abstand zur Arbeitsplatte überragen. In diesem Teilbereich sind die Aussparungen für Bedienelemente und/oder Anzeigen angeordnet. Der Kochfeldrahmen, soweit er in diesem Teilbereich noch vorhanden ist, ist oberhalb der Arbeitsplatte angeordnet und liegt vorzugsweise auf der Arbeitsplatte auf.In the glass ceramic hob according to the invention, which is provided in a known manner for mounting in a worktop and which consists of a hob frame with glass ceramic plate, the lateral portion may extend beyond the cutout region of the worktop with a distance from the worktop. In this subarea, the recesses are arranged for controls and / or displays. The hob frame, as far as it is still present in this section, is arranged above the worktop and is preferably on the worktop.

Durch den so gewonnenen größeren Abstand zwischen Heizelementen des Glaskeramikkochfelds und den Bedienteilen sind die Kochfelder bzw. Topfträger größer dimensionierbar, die Bedienelemente gut erreichbar und weniger wärmebelastet.By thus obtained greater distance between the heating elements of the glass ceramic cooktop and the control panels, the hobs or pot support are larger dimensions, the controls easily accessible and less heat.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung weist der nach oben aus der Hauptebene der Glaskeramikplatte abweichende Bereich eine Doppelkrümmung in der Art einer Tangenshyperbolicus-Funktion auf.
So kann sich auf dem nach oben aus der Hauptebene der Glaskeramikplatte abweichenden Bereich ein Topfträger gut abstützen, der in einer Vertiefung in der Glaskeramikplatte auf der diesem Bereich gegenüberliegenden Seite fixiert ist.
In a preferred embodiment, the region deviating upward from the main plane of the glass ceramic plate has a double curvature in the manner of a tangent hyperbolic function.
Thus, on the upward deviating from the main plane of the glass ceramic plate area, a pot carrier can be well supported, which is fixed in a recess in the glass ceramic plate on the opposite side of this area.

Darüber hinaus bilden der Teilbereich der Glaskeramikplatte über der Arbeitsplatte und die Arbeitsplatte bzw. der Kochfeldrahmen hier einen Schlitz, der für die Zufuhr von Primärluft zu den Gasbrennern nutzbar ist.In addition, the portion of the glass ceramic plate above the worktop and the worktop or hob frame here form a slot that is available for the supply of primary air to the gas burners.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing.

Der Teilbereich 5 des nach oben aus der Hauptebene 4 der Glaskeramikplatte 3 abweichenden Bereiches überragt den Ausschnittsbereich der Arbeitsplatte 1 und weist einen Abstand (A) zur Arbeitsplatte 1 auf. In diesem Teilbereich 5 sind die Aussparungen für die Bedienelemente 6 angeordnet.
Der Kochfeldrahmen 2 ist im Teilbereich 5 oberhalb der Arbeitsplatte 1 angeordnet und liegt auf der Arbeitsplatte 1 auf.
In the figure, the glass ceramic hob is mounted in the worktop 1. The subregion 5 of the region deviating upward from the main plane 4 of the glass ceramic plate 3 projects beyond the cutout region of the work surface 1 and has a spacing (A) from the work surface 1. In this portion 5, the recesses for the controls 6 are arranged.
The hob frame 2 is arranged in the sub-area 5 above the worktop 1 and rests on the worktop 1.

Der nach oben aus der Hauptebene 4 der Glaskeramikplatte 3 abweichende Bereich weist eine Doppelkrümmung 7 in der Art einer Tangenshyperbolicus-Funktion auf und verläuft dann im wesentlichen parallel zur Hauptebene 4. Der vom Teilbereich 5 und der Arbeitsplatte 1 bzw. dem Kochfeldrahmen 2 gebildete Schlitz 10 dient für die Zufuhr von Primärluft zu den Gasbrennern 11.The upwardly deviating from the main plane 4 of the glass ceramic plate 3 has a double curvature 7 in the manner of a tangent hyperbolic function and then runs substantially parallel to the main plane 4. The formed by the portion 5 and the worktop 1 and the hob frame 2 slot 10th serves for the supply of primary air to the gas burners 11.

Die Aussparungen für die Bedienelemente 6 sind an der äußeren Kante des Teilbereiches 5 angeordnet und seitlich offen, so dass die Bedienelemente 6 teilweise von der Glaskeramikplatte 3 umfasst werden. Die Bedienelemente 6 selbst sind am oberhalb der Arbeitsplatte 1 befindlichen Kochfeldrahmen 2 angeordnet.The recesses for the operating elements 6 are arranged on the outer edge of the subregion 5 and open laterally, so that the operating elements 6 are partially covered by the glass ceramic plate 3. The controls 6 themselves are located on the hob plate frame 2 located above the worktop 1.

Auf dem nach oben aus der Hauptebene 4 der Glaskeramikplatte 3 abweichenden Bereich stützt sich der Topfträger 8 ab. Er ist auf der anderen Seite in der Vertiefung 9 in der Glaskeramikplatte 3 fixiert.On the upwardly deviating from the main plane 4 of the glass ceramic plate 3 area, the pot carrier 8 is supported. He is fixed on the other side in the recess 9 in the glass ceramic plate 3.
