Insbesondere kann eine Bauteileanzahl reduziert werden, da mehrere Aufgaben gleichzeitig von der Trägereinheit wahrgenommen werden können. Ferner kann eine Konstruktion einer gattungsgemäßen Kochfeldvorrichtung besonders vorteilhaft vereinfacht werden. Unter einem "Montagebereich für zumindest eine weitere Elektronikeinheit" soll insbesondere ein zumindest teilweise an die Trägereinheit angrenzender und/oder wenigstens teilweise von der Trägereinheit umgriffener räumlicher Bereich verstanden werden, in welchem die weitere Elektronikeinheit im montierten Zustand und insbesondere in der Einbaulage angeordnet ist.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Kochfeldvorrichtung zumindest eine im montierten Zustand unmittelbar an einer Kochfeldplatte befestigte und von der Trägereinheit verschieden ausgebildete Halteeinheit umfasst, welche dazu vorgesehen ist, im montierten Zustand und in der Einbaulage zumindest eine Heizeinheit zu tragen. Dabei ist die Heizeinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage insbesondere zwischen der Kochfeldplatte und einem Teil der Halteeinheit angeordnet. Unter einer "Halteeinheit" soll in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere eine wenigstens ein Element umfassende Einheit verstanden werden, welche insbesondere zumindest einen Anlagebereich zu einer Verbindung mit der Kochfeldplatte aufweist und welche dazu vorgesehen ist, wenigstens eine weitere Baueinheit eines Kochfelds und vorzugsweise zumindest einen Großteil der Baueinheiten des Kochfelds zu tragen. Darunter, dass die Halteeinheit dazu vorgesehen ist, "zumindest einen Großteil der Baueinheiten des Kochfelds zu tragen", soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass die Halteeinheit im montierten Zustand und in der Einbaulage Baueinheiten des Kochfelds trägt, deren Gesamtmasse inklusive der Masse der Halteeinheit wenigstens 55 %, insbesondere zumindest 65 %, vorzugsweise mindestens 75 % und besonders vorteilhaft wenigstens 85 % einer Gesamtmasse des Kochfelds ausmacht. Vorzugsweise ist die Halteeinheit an der Kochfeldplatte angeklebt. Vorzugsweise trägt die Halteeinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage, von der Kochfeldplatte abgesehen, sämtliche weiteren Baueinheiten des Kochfelds. Hierdurch können vorteilhaft Kosten gesenkt werden, insbesondere einerseits durch eine Reduzierung einer Bauteileanzahl und andererseits durch eine Vereinfachung einer Montage. Durch die Halteeinheit kann eine zentrale Montageeinheit für sämtliche Komponenten des Kochfelds bereitgestellt werden, wodurch die Montage des Kochfelds erheblich vereinfacht und beschleunigt werden kann. Dabei können die Komponenten des Kochfelds auf beliebige, dem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinende Art an der Halteeinheit befestigt sein, insbesondere durch Kleben, Verrasten, Schrauben und/oder Schweißen. Bei entsprechender Wahl von Befestigungsmitteln kann die Montage insbesondere zumindest weitgehend werkzeuglos erfolgen. Vorteilhaft ist die Halteeinheit einstückig ausgebildet, wodurch eine Bauteileanzahl und ein Montageäufwand reduziert werden können. Wenn die Halteeinheit zumindest eine seitliche Ausnehmung zu einer Montage und/oder Demontage der Heizeinheit aufweist, kann des Weiteren ein Wartungs- und/oder Reparaturaufwand reduziert werden, da die Heizeinheit vorteilhaft einfach entnehmbar ist. Unter einer "Ausnehmung" einer Einheit soll in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere eine Materialausnehmung in wenigstens einem Element der Einheit und/oder ein freier räumlicher Bereich zwischen wenigstens zwei Elementen der Einheit verstanden werden. Unter einer "seitlichen Ausnehmung" soll insbesondere eine Ausnehmung verstanden werden, welche im montierten Zustand in zumindest einer zur Kochfeldplatte parallelen Richtung durchgehend ist.It is also proposed that the hob device comprises at least one in the mounted state directly attached to a hob plate and differently formed by the support unit holding unit, which is intended to carry at least one heating unit in the assembled state and in the installed position. In this case, the heating unit is arranged in the installed state in the installation position, in particular between the hob plate and a part of the holding unit. In this context, a "holding unit" should be understood as meaning in particular a unit comprising at least one element, which in particular has at least one contact area for connection to the cooktop panel and which is provided for at least one further structural unit of a cooktop and preferably at least a majority of the modular units to carry the hob. By the fact that the holding unit is intended to "carry at least a majority of the structural units of the hob" should be understood in particular that the holding unit in the assembled state and in the installation position units of the hob carries, the total mass including the mass of the holding unit at least 55th %, in particular at least 65%, preferably at least 75% and particularly advantageously at least 85% of a total mass of the hob makes. Preferably, the holding unit is glued to the hob plate. Preferably, the holding unit carries in the installed state in the installed position, apart from the hob plate, all other units of the hob. This can advantageously be reduced costs, in particular on the one hand by reducing a number of components and on the other hand by simplifying assembly. By the holding unit, a central mounting unit for all components of the hob can be provided, whereby the assembly of the hob can be considerably simplified and accelerated. In this case, the components of the hob can be fastened to the holding unit in any manner that appears appropriate to the person skilled in the art, in particular by gluing, latching, screwing and / or welding. With a suitable choice of fasteners, the assembly can in particular be done at least largely without tools. Advantageously, the holding unit is integrally formed, whereby a number of components and an assembly mounting wall can be reduced. Furthermore, if the holding unit has at least one lateral recess for mounting and / or dismounting the heating unit, a maintenance and / or repair effort can be reduced since the heating unit can advantageously be easily removed. In this context, a "recess" of a unit should in particular be a material recess in at least one element unit and / or a free spatial area between at least two elements of the unit. A "lateral recess" is to be understood in particular a recess, which is continuous in the assembled state in at least one direction parallel to the hob plate.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Trägereinheit wenigstens ein Fixierelement umfasst, welches dazu vorgesehen ist, im montierten Zustand und in der Einbaulage eine Horizontalposition der Heizeinheit relativ zur Halteeinheit zumindest im Wesentlichen festzulegen. Darunter, dass das Fixierelement "im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage eine Horizontalposition der Heizeinheit relativ zur Halteeinheit zumindest im Wesentlichen festlegt", soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass eine Beweglichkeit der Heizeinheit relativ zur Halteeinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage durch das Fixierelement in wenigstens einer zur Kochfeldplatte parallelen Richtung zumindest weitgehend aufgehoben ist. Darunter, dass die relative Beweglichkeit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage in wenigstens einer zur Kochfeldplatte parallelen Richtung "zumindest weitgehend aufgehoben ist", soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass eine maximale Relativbewegung zwischen der Heizeinheit und der Halteeinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage in der zur Kochfeldplatte parallelen Richtung höchstens 5 mm, insbesondere maximal 2,5 mm, vorzugsweise höchstens 1 mm und besonders vorteilhaft maximal 0,5 mm beträgt. Hierdurch kann eine gattungsgemäße Kochfeldvorrichtung vorteilhaft weiterentwickelt werden. Insbesondere kann eine Montage vereinfacht und beschleunigt werden. Ferner kann eine Bauteileanzahl reduziert werden. Insbesondere kann das Fixierelement die Horizontalposition im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage durch einen Kraft- und/oder Stoffschluss festlegen. Vorzugsweise legt das Fixierelement die Horizontalposition im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage jedoch durch einen Formschluss fest. Hierdurch kann eine vorteilhaft lösbare Verbindung geschaffen werden. Vorteilhaft weist die Halteeinheit wenigstens eine im montierten Zustand vom Fixierelement durchstoßene Ausnehmung auf. Unter einer im montierten Zustand "vom Fixierelement durchstoßenen Ausnehmung" soll in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere eine Ausnehmung verstanden werden, durch welche das Fixierelement im montierten Zustand, insbesondere in der Einbaulage, wenigstens teilweise hindurchtritt. Hierdurch kann eine einfache, kostengünstige und effektive Konstruktion bereitgestellt werden.It is also proposed that the carrier unit comprises at least one fixing element, which is provided to at least substantially fix a horizontal position of the heating unit relative to the holding unit in the mounted state and in the installed position. By the fact that the fixing element "in the installed state at least substantially defines a horizontal position of the heating unit relative to the holding unit", should be understood in particular that a mobility of the heating unit relative to the holding unit in the assembled state in the installed position by the fixing in at least one to the hob plate parallel direction is at least largely canceled. The fact that the relative mobility in the installed state in the installation position in at least one direction parallel to the hob plate is "at least largely repealed" should be understood in particular that a maximum relative movement between the heating unit and the holding unit in the mounted state in the mounting position in the Hob plate parallel direction at most 5 mm, in particular at most 2.5 mm, preferably at most 1 mm and more preferably at most 0.5 mm. In this way, a generic hob device can be further developed advantageous. In particular, an assembly can be simplified and accelerated. Furthermore, a number of components can be reduced. In particular, the fixing element can fix the horizontal position in the assembled state in the installed position by a force and / or material connection. Preferably, however, the fixing element fixes the horizontal position in the installed state in the installation position by a positive connection. In this way, an advantageously detachable connection can be created. Advantageously, the holding unit has at least one recess pierced by the fixing element in the mounted state. Under a mounted state "pierced by the fixing element recess" should be understood in this context, in particular a recess through which the fixing element in the assembled state, in particular in the installed position, at least partially passes. As a result, a simple, inexpensive and effective construction can be provided.

Vorteilhaft ist die Trägereinheit im montierten Zustand und in der Einbaulage zumindest im Wesentlichen unter der Halteeinheit angeordnet. Darunter, dass die Trägereinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage "zumindest im Wesentlichen" unter der Halteeinheit angeordnet ist, soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass wenigstens 60 %, insbesondere zumindest 70 %, vorzugsweise mindestens 80 % und besonders vorteilhaft wenigstens 90 % einer Gesamtmasse der Trägereinheit im montierten Zustand in der Einbaulage unterhalb der Halteeinheit angeordnet sind. Hierdurch kann eine Bauteileanzahl reduziert werden, da mehrere Aufgaben gleichzeitig von der Halteeinheit wahrgenommen werden können. Ferner kann eine Konstruktion einer gattungsgemäßen Kochfeldvorrichtung vorteilhaft vereinfacht werden. Wenn der Montagebereich für die weitere Elektronikeinheit im montierten Zustand auf einer von der Halteeinheit abgewandten Seite der Trägereinheit angeordnet ist, kann eine Montage besonders vorteilhaft vereinfacht werden, insbesondere bei einem Herstellen elektrischer Verbindungen, insbesondere zwischen der weiteren Elektronikeinheit und der Heizeinheit, da im montierten Zustand der weiteren Elektronikeinheit an der Trägereinheit eine vorteilhafte Zugänglichkeit der weiteren Elektronikeinheit erreicht werden kann.Advantageously, the carrier unit is arranged in the mounted state and in the installed position at least substantially below the holding unit. The fact that the carrier unit is arranged in the installed state "at least substantially" under the holding unit, should be understood in particular that at least 60%, in particular at least 70%, preferably at least 80% and more preferably at least 90% of a total mass of Carrier unit are arranged in the installed state in the installed position below the holding unit. As a result, a number of components can be reduced, since several tasks can be performed simultaneously by the holding unit. Furthermore, a construction of a generic hob device can be advantageously simplified. If the mounting area for the further electronics unit in the mounted state is arranged on a side remote from the holding unit of the carrier unit, a mounting can be simplified particularly advantageous, in particular when establishing electrical connections, in particular between the other electronic unit and the heating unit, there in the mounted state the further electronic unit on the carrier unit an advantageous accessibility of the further electronic unit can be achieved.

Vorteilhaft ist die Halteeinheit dazu vorgesehen, im montierten Zustand wenigstens ein Bauelement der weiteren Elektronikeinheit elektromagnetisch zumindest weitgehend von der Heizeinheit abzuschirmen. Darunter, dass die Halteeinheit dazu vorgesehen ist, im montierten Zustand das Bauelement "elektromagnetisch zumindest weitgehend von der Heizeinheit abzuschirmen", soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass ein von der Heizeinheit ausgehendes elektrisches und/oder magnetisches Feld an jedem Ort des Bauelements durch ein Material der Halteeinheit um wenigstens 60 %, insbesondere um zumindest 70 %, vorzugsweise um mindestens 80 % und besonders vorteilhaft um wenigstens 90 % abgeschwächt ist, insbesondere verglichen mit einer imaginären Situation, in welcher bei gleicher relativer Anordnung der Heizeinheit zum Bauelement die Halteeinheit durch Luft ersetzt wird. Vorzugsweise ist das Bauelement als ein Leistungselektronikbauelement, insbesondere ein Wechselrichter, ausgebildet. Hierdurch kann eine Bauteileanzahl besonders vorteilhaft reduziert werden, da die Halteeinheit mehrere Aufgaben in sich vereinen kann und insbesondere zusätzlich eine Abschirmung bereitstellen kann. Ferner kann ein hoher Qualitätsstandard garantiert werden. Vorzugsweise besteht die Halteeinheit zumindest teilweise und vorzugsweise zu einem Großteil aus Aluminium. Darunter, dass die Halteeinheit "zu einem Großteil" aus Aluminium besteht, soll insbesondere verstanden werden, dass die Halteeinheit mit einem Massenanteil von wenigsten 60 %, insbesondere von zumindest 70 %, vorzugsweise von mindestens 80 % und besonders vorteilhaft von wenigstens 90 % aus Aluminium besteht. Hierdurch kann eine leichte Bauweise erreicht werden.Advantageously, the holding unit is provided to shield in the mounted state, at least one component of the further electronic unit electromagnetically at least largely from the heating unit. The fact that the holding unit is intended to shield the component "electromagnetically at least largely from the heating unit" in the installed state should in particular mean that an electric and / or magnetic field emanating from the heating unit at each location of the component is prevented by a material of the Holding unit is attenuated by at least 60%, in particular by at least 70%, preferably by at least 80% and particularly advantageously by at least 90%, in particular compared with an imaginary situation in which in the same relative arrangement of the heating unit to the component, the holding unit is replaced by air , The component is preferably designed as a power electronics component, in particular an inverter. In this way, a number of components can be reduced particularly advantageous, since the holding unit can combine several tasks in itself and in particular can additionally provide a shield. Furthermore, a high quality standard can be guaranteed. Preferably, the holding unit consists at least partially and preferably to a large extent of aluminum. Including that the holding unit "consists to a large extent" of aluminum, should be understood in particular be that the holding unit with a mass fraction of at least 60%, in particular of at least 70%, preferably at least 80% and particularly advantageously at least 90% of aluminum. As a result, a lightweight construction can be achieved.
