Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an induction cooking hob with a pot detection device according to the preamble of claim 1. Further, the present invention relates to a method for starting the operation of an induction cooking hob with a pot detection device.
  • the pot detection device checks, if a cooking vessel is adapted to said induction cooking hob.
  • the pot detection device further detects those cooking zones of the cooking hob, on which the cooking vessel is positioned.
  • the pot detection recognises that the cooking vessel is suitable for the induction cooking hob and placed in a correct position, then the selected power is supplied.
  • the user selects the desired power and places the cooking vessel on a cooking surface. Then, the power is automatically supplied to the cooking zone. However, there is time limit for placing the cooking vessel correctly on the cooking zone. If the user exceeds said time limit, then the power will not be supplied to the cooking zone. In this case, the user possibly does not recognise that no power is supplied to the cooking zone.
  • FR 2 863 039 A1 discloses a cooking hob including heating elements associated with inductors.
  • the inductors form elements for detecting the presence of a container.
  • a heating area is defined by those heating elements, which are at least partially covered by the container.
  • a power supplied to each heating element of the heating area is computed on the basis of the total specified power of the heating area and the degrees of coverage of the heating elements by the container.
  • WO 2009/053279 A1 discloses a cooking hob having a plurality of heating elements.
  • the heating elements generate freely definable heating zones.
  • the heating elements are actuated by a control unit.
  • a user interface is provided for inputting a parameter for determining a target heat power.
  • the control unit defines at least one parameter of one heating zone in a first operation mode in a detection step depending on a position and/or size of a detected cooking utensil element.
  • the target power is read from the user interface in an adjustment step.
  • the defined heating zone is heated at the target power in a heating phase.
  • the object of the present invention is achieved by the induction cooking hob according to claim 1.
  • the pot detection device is activated by an on-off key
  • the input unit and the display unit are formed as a touch screen, so that the input area and display area are identical
  • the display unit comprises a schematic picture illustrating the cooking surface and at least one symbol representing the cooking zone(s), the symbol is illuminated, if the corresponding cooking zone is covered by the cooking vessel, and the power switch is integrated within or corresponds with the symbol representing the cooking zone(s).
  • the main idea of the present invention is that the power is manually set by the user, after the pot detection device has identified the cooking zone(s) and/or induction coil(s) covered by the cooking vessel.
  • the on-off key activates only the pot detection device, but not the cooking zone(s) and/or induction coil(s).
  • the cooking zone(s) and/or induction coil(s) are activated, when the user has manually set the power.
  • the input unit and the display unit are formed as a touch screen.
  • the display unit illustrates the cooking surface.
  • the display unit comprises at least one symbol representing the cooking zone(s).
  • the power switch is integrated within or corresponds with the symbol representing the cooking zone(s).
  • the pot detection device may be provided for checking, if the cooking vessel placed on the cooking surface is adapted to the induction cooking hob.
  • the pot detection device is provided for detecting a current through the induction coil(s).
  • the pot detection device may be provided for detecting a voltage at the induction coil(s).
  • the pot detection device may be provided for detecting a phase shift of the current through and/or the voltage at the induction coil(s).
  • the object of the present invention is further achieved by the method according to claim 5.
  • the inventive method for starting the operation of an induction cooking hob with a pot detection device comprises the step of:
  • the core of the inventive method is that the power is manually set by the user, after the pot detection device has identified the cooking zone(s) and/or induction coil(s) covered by the cooking vessel.
  • the method is provided for the induction cooking hob with the pot detection device described above.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a top view of an induction cooking hob with four cooking zones 14 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • the induction cooking hob includes a cooking surface 10 and an input and display unit 12.
  • the cooking surface 10 comprises four cooking zones 14.
  • the cooking surface 10 may comprise an arbitrary number of cooking zones 14.
  • Each cooking zone 14 includes or corresponds with one or more induction coils.
  • Each induction coil is connected to a high-frequency generator and to a control unit.
  • the induction coils of one cooking zone 14 may be arranged side-by-side or into each other.
  • the input and display unit 12 is a touch screen, so that the input area and display area are identical.
  • the cooking hob may comprise an input unit and a display unit formed as separate components.
  • the cooking hob comprises a pot detection device for detecting a cooking vessel.
  • the pot detection device recognises, if the cooking vessel is placed on the cooking surface 10. Further, the pot detection device determines the cooking zone 12, on which the cooking vessel is positioned. Moreover, the pot detection device ascertains if the cooking vessel is even suitable for the induction cooking hob. Preferably, the pot detection device is activated by pressing an on-off key 16.
  • the input and display unit 12 comprises a schematic picture of the cooking surface 10.
  • the four cooking zones 14 are illustrated by corresponding symbols 18 on the input and display unit 12.
  • the pot detection device recognises said cooking vessel.
  • the input and display unit 12 indicates by illuminating the corresponding symbol 18 or symbols 18, which cooking zone 14 or cooking zones 14, respectively, is or are covered by said cooking vessel.
  • the user can set the power for said cooking zone 14 or cooking zones 14, respectively, by touching an according key of the input and display unit 12.
  • the key or keys for setting the power is or are arranged within the corresponding symbol 18. Only those induction coils covered by the cooking vessel are activated. If the cooking vessel covers two cooking zones 14, then the according induction coils are activated.
  • the induction coils are deactivated. For a predetermined period of time, the pot detection device is activated again. If the cooking vessel is placed on the substantially same position again, then the induction coils are activated in the same way. If the cooking zone 14 is partially covered by the cooking vessel and an addition cooking vessel is placed within the same cooking zone 14, then the pot detection device indicates that a new cooking vessel is present. Now, the user has to set the power for the induction coils covered by said new cooking vessel.
  • FIG 2 illustrates a top view of the induction cooking hob with six cooking zones 14 according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • This induction cooking hob also includes the cooking surface 10 and the input and display unit 12.
  • the cooking surface 10 comprises six cooking zones 14.
  • the input and display unit 12 comprises a schematic picture of the cooking surface 10, wherein the six cooking zones 14 are illustrated by six corresponding symbols 18.
