Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Kochfläche aus Glaskeramik oder aus einem anderen vergleichbaren Material gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. Als anderes, vergleichbares Material ist anzusehen ein Material, das mit Glaskeramik vergleichbar ist insbesondere hinsichtlich Härte, Schmelzpunkt und elektrischen Isoliereigenschaften.The invention relates to a cooking surface of glass ceramic or other comparable material according to the preamble of claim 1. As another, comparable material is a material that is comparable to glass ceramic in particular in terms of hardness, melting point and electrical insulation properties.

Eine derartige Kochfläche ist bekannt aus der US 6,103,338, wobei die Kochplatte aus einer gebogenen Glaskeramikplatte besteht, die durch eine Erhöhung in einen Kochbereich und in einen Bedienbereich geteilt ist.Such a cooking surface is known from US 6,103,338, wherein the cooking plate consists of a curved glass ceramic plate, which is divided by an increase in a cooking area and in an operating area.

Weiter ist aus der DE 38 38 176 A1 eine Kochmulde bekannt, die an einer Seite mit einer hochstehenden Rippe versehen ist, an die sich ein nach außen abfallender Abschnitt anschließt, in welchem Steuereinrichtungen für die Kochstellen angeordnet sind. Dabei weist die Platte an ihrer Rückseite eine weitere erhöhte Rippe auf, in der Belüftungsrillen verdeckt ausgebildet sind.Further, from DE 38 38 176 A1 a cooktop is known, which is provided on one side with an upstanding rib, followed by an outwardly sloping section followed, are arranged in which control means for the cooking zones. In this case, the plate on its back on a further raised rib, are formed concealed in the ventilation grooves.

Die Kochfläche einer Glaskeramik - Kochmulde im eingangs genannten Sinn zeigt DE-PS 3144987. Hierbei besteht die Kochfläche aus einem glaskeramischen Kochfeld mit darunter liegenden Strahlungsheizkörpern sowie aus einem Bedienfeld etwa aus transparentem Material. Kochfeld und Bedienfeld, das Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente für die Strahlungsheizkörper aufweist, sind gelagert in einem rahmenartigen Träger, von dem ein Trägerholm quer zu den seitlichen Begrenzungen zwischen Kochfeld und Bedienfeld verläuft, womit diese Felder mit Abstand vollständig voneinander abgrenzt sind. Dieser mit den übrigen, peripheren Trägerholmen zusammenhängende Trägerholm erstreckt sich bis zur Kochfeldebene und stellt eine optisch gut wahrnehmbare Markierung für die Kochfeld-Begrenzung dar.The cooking surface of a glass ceramic cooktop in the aforementioned sense shows DE-PS 3144987. Here, the cooking surface consists of a glass ceramic hob with underlying radiant heaters and a control panel made of transparent material. Hob and control panel, which has control and display elements for the radiant heater, are mounted in a frame-like support, of which a support rail extends transversely to the lateral boundaries between the hob and control panel, so these fields are completely separated from each other by far. This associated with the rest, peripheral support beams carrier beam extends to the hob field level and represents a visually good mark for the hob boundary.

Bei einer anderen bekannten Kochfläche (EP 0930806A1) sind sowohl mehrere Kochstellen als auch Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente in einer ovalen Glaskeramikplatte integriert. Dabei sind die randseitigen Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente hinter einer die Glaskeramikplatte nur partiell im Bereich der genannten Elemente durchziehenden wulstartigen Erhebung angeordnet, welche Erhebung aus dem Glaskeramikmaterial herausgeformt ist und eine fühlbare Markierung für den Bereich der Anzeige- undIn another known cooking surface (EP 0930806A1), both several cooking zones as well as operating and display elements are integrated in an oval glass-ceramic plate. In this case, the edge-side operating and display elements are behind a glass ceramic plate only partially in the region of said elements arranged bead-like elevation, which elevation is formed out of the glass ceramic material and a tactile marker for the field of display and

Bedienelemente darstellt. Eine vollständige Abgrenzung zwischen Kochfeld und Bedienfeld zum Beispiel zum Schutz des Bedienbereiches vor überfließender Kochflüssigkeit von den Kochstellen her ist hiermit nicht gegeben.Represents controls. A complete demarcation between the hob and control panel, for example, to protect the operating area from overflowing cooking liquid from the hobs ago hereby is not given.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, die Kochfläche so auszugestalten, dass neben einer formalen, optisch klar erkennbaren Unterteilung und Abgrenzung von Kochfläche und Bedienfläche zwischen diesen Flächen eine vollständige, fühlbare und flüssigkeitsabweisende Barriere vorhanden ist.The present invention is based on the object, the cooking surface in such a way that in addition to a formal, optically clear subdivision and Delimitation of cooking surface and control surface between these surfaces a complete, tactile and liquid-repellent barrier is present.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei der Kochfläche mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorzugsweise ist hierbei Kochfeld, Bedienfeld und Barriere einstückig ausgebildet.This object is achieved in the cooking surface with the features of claim 1. Preferably, this cooktop, control panel and barrier is integrally formed.

Entsprechend der vorgenannten Aufgabenstellung ergibt sich damit eine Kochfläche, deren Funktionsfelder (Kochfeld, Bedienfeld) optisch und physikalisch voneinander abgegrenzt sind. Gegenüber bekannten Ausführungen mit ebenfalls voneinander abgegrenzten Funktionsfeldern ergibt sich insbesondere der Vorteil, dass für diese Abgrenzung kein besonderer Quer - Trägerholm zum Beispiel als Teil eines die Kochfläche umfassenden Rahmens erforderlich ist. Vielmehr erhält man erfindungsgemäß eine einheitliche, geschlossene und daher spalt- und fugenfreie Gesamtoberfläche, die sich auch dadurch auszeichnet, dass sie sehr problemlos zu reinigen ist.In accordance with the aforementioned task, this results in a cooking surface whose functional fields (hob, control panel) are visually and physically separated from each other. In contrast to known designs with likewise separate functional fields, there is the particular advantage that no special transverse beam spar is required for this delimitation, for example as part of a frame comprising the cooking surface. Rather, according to the invention, a uniform, closed and therefore gap-free and joint-free overall surface, which is also characterized in that it is very easy to clean.

In fertigungstechnischer Hinsicht eröffnen sich durch die erfindungsgemäße Bauweise der Kochfläche viele Möglichkeiten in der Gestaltung der Barriere. Vorzugsweise ist die Barriere als langgestreckte, wulstartige Erhöhung oder als langgestreckte dachförmige Erhöhung ausgebildet. Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn sich Kochfeld und Bedienfeld in einer gemeinsamen Ebene befinden.In terms of manufacturing technology, the design of the cooking surface according to the invention opens up many possibilities in the design of the barrier. Preferably, the barrier is formed as an elongated, bead-like elevation or as an elongated roof-shaped elevation. It is advantageous if the hob and control panel are in a common plane.

Gemäß einer anderen Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Kochfläche ist das Bedienfeld schräg geneigt zum waagerechten Kochfeld angeordnet. Hierbei kann das Kochfeld durch eine stufenartige Barriere begrenzt sein, an die sich das Bedienfeld schräg geneigt anschließt und damit in vorteilhafter Weise der Bedienungsperson zugewandt ist.According to another embodiment of the cooking surface according to the invention, the control panel is arranged obliquely inclined to the horizontal hob. Here, the hob can be limited by a step-like barrier, to which the control panel adjoins obliquely and thus faces the operator in an advantageous manner.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die im Grundriss rechteckförmige Kochfläche zumindest an zwei gegenüberliegenden Flächenkanten mit an die Enden der langgestreckten Barriere angrenzenden Begrenzungsleisten versehen. Dabei ist es hinsichtlich der physikalischen Abgrenzung von Kochfeld und Bedienfeld unschädlich, wenn aus fertigungstechnischen Gründen zwischen den genannten Enden der langgestreckten Barriere und den seitlichen Begrenzungsleisten ein geringfügiger Spalt verbleibt.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the rectangular cooking surface in plan is provided at least at two opposite surface edges with adjacent to the ends of the elongated barrier boundary strips. That's it with regard to the physical delimitation of hob and control panel harmless if left for manufacturing reasons between the ends of the elongated barrier and the lateral boundary strips a slight gap.

  • FIG. 4 is a front view of the cooking surface in the direction of the arrow IV in FIG. 1, which view is likewise enlarged;
  • Figure 5 to 8 the drawings corresponding to Figures 1 to 4 representations of a second embodiment of the cooking surface according to the invention.

Bei beiden Ausführungsbeispielen gemäß Figur 1 bis 4 und 5 bis 8 ist jeweils eine plattenartige Kochfläche aus Glaskeramikmaterial dargestellt, deren Kochstellen und Bedien- und Anzeigeorgane durch Strichmarkierungen a ngedeutet sind, bei der jedoch ein üblicherweise vorgesehener Unterbau, der die zugehörigen Strahlungsheizkörper und Schalt- und Anzeigeorganen wie LED - Anzeigeorgane und mechanische Schalter oder Berührungsschalter enthält, nicht dargestellt ist.In both embodiments according to Figures 1 to 4 and 5 to 8, a plate-like cooking surface made of glass ceramic material is shown in each case, the cooking and operating and display elements are nefeutet by bar marks, but in which a commonly provided substructure, the associated radiant heaters and switching and Display devices such as LED - displays and mechanical switches or touch switches contains, not shown.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figur 1 bis 4 ist die rechteckige Kochfläche 1 unterteilt in ein Kochfeld 2 und eine Bedienfeld 3. Das Kochfeld 2 besitzt vier kreisrunde Kochstellen 4, 5 unterschiedlichen Durchmessers, während das Bedienfeld 3 angedeutete Anzeigeorgane 6 und Schaltorgane 7 aufweist. Kochfeld 2 und Bedienfeld 3 befinden sich in einer gemeinsamen Ebene und sind einstückige Bestandteile der Kochfläche 1, d. h. sie bestehen aus demselben Glaskeramikmaterial, das zum Beispiel im Bereich der Anzeige- und Bedienorgane 6, 7 transparent ausgebildet sein kann. An den beiden gegenüberliegenden Flächenrändern ist die Glaskeramikplatte versehen mit die Kantenbereiche umschließenden, zum Beispiel aus Kunststoff oder Edelstahl bestehenden Begrenzungsleisten 8, wie Figur 1, 3 und 4 zeigt.In the embodiment according to Figures 1 to 4, the rectangular cooking surface 1 is divided into a hob 2 and a control panel 3. The hob 2 has four circular Hobs 4, 5 of different diameters, while the control panel 3 indicated indicating elements 6 and 7 switching elements. Hob 2 and control panel 3 are located in a common plane and are integral parts of the cooking surface 1, ie they consist of the same glass ceramic material, which may be transparent, for example in the field of display and control elements 6, 7. At the two opposite surface edges of the glass ceramic plate is provided with the edge regions enclosing, for example made of plastic or stainless steel boundary strips 8, as Figure 1, 3 and 4 shows.

Figur 1 und 2 zeigt, dass Kochfeld 2 und Bedienfeld 3 voneinander abgegrenzt sind durch eine die Kochfläche 1 quer und in deren ganzer Breite durchziehende Barriere 9 in Form einer wulstartigen, halbkreisförmigen und langgestreckten Erhöhung, die aus dem Glaskeramikmaterial einstückig ausgeformt ist. Diese Barriere 9 überragt deutlich die waagerechten Ebenen von Kochfeld 2 und Bedienfeld 3 und stellt eine deutlich erkennbare, fühlbare und flüssigkeitsdichte und dabei homogene Abgrenzung des gesamten Kochfeldes 2 vom gesamten Bedienfeld 3 dar. Im Scheitelteil der Barriere 9 ist eine Bedruckung 9' aufgebracht , die dem Trennelement ein wertigeres Aussehen verleiht. Zum Beispiel kann vorgesehen sein, durch die Dekorbedruckung die Anmutung eines metallischen Trennelements zu erzeugen.Figure 1 and 2 shows that hob 2 and control panel 3 are delimited from each other by a cooking surface 1 across and across its entire width passing through barrier 9 in the form of a bead-like, semi-circular and elongated elevation, which is integrally formed from the glass ceramic material. This barrier 9 clearly projects beyond the horizontal planes of hob 2 and control panel 3 and represents a clearly recognizable, tangible and liquid-tight and thereby homogeneous demarcation of the entire hob 2 from the entire control panel 3. In the apex part of the barrier 9, a print 9 'is applied, the gives the separator a more valuable look. For example, it can be provided to create the impression of a metallic separating element by means of the decorative printing.

Der wesentliche Unterschied zwischen den beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß den Figuren 1 bis 4 und der zweiten Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 5 bis 8 besteht in der Ausbildung des Bedienfeldes 3' und der Barriere 11. Hier ist die Barriere 11 ebenfalls gebildet durch eine aus dem Glaskeramikmaterial ausgeformte, die Kochfeld-Ebene deutlich überragende stufenartige Erhöhung 12, an die sich das gegenüber dem horizontalen Kochfeld 2' schräg geneigte und der vor der Kochfläche 10 d. h. seinem Bedienfeld 3' stehenden Bedienungsperson zugewandte Bedienfeld 3' mit den Anzeigeorganen 6' und Bedienorganen 7' anschließt. Auch bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind die gegenüberliegenden, seitlichen Flächenränder der Kochfläche 10 mit an die Enden der langgestreckten Barriere 11 angrenzenden Begrenzungsleisten 8' versehen, die im Unterschied zur Ausführungsform gemäß Figur 1 bis 4 im Bereich des Bedienfeldes 3' entsprechend schräg geneigt ausgebildet sind.The essential difference between the described embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4 and the second embodiment according to FIGS. 5 to 8 lies in the design of the control panel 3 'and the barrier 11. Here the barrier 11 is likewise formed by a glass ceramic material, the hob level significantly superior step-like increase 12, to which the opposite the horizontal hob 2 'obliquely inclined and the front of the cooking surface 10 d. H. his control panel 3 'standing operator facing control panel 3' with the display members 6 'and controls 7' connected. Also in this embodiment, the opposite, lateral surface edges of the cooking surface 10 are provided with adjacent to the ends of the elongated barrier 11 boundary strips 8 ', which are formed in contrast to the embodiment of Figure 1 to 4 in the area of the control panel 3' corresponding obliquely.
