Die Gaskochfeldvorrichtung 10 umfasst eine Führungseinheit 34, die den Topfträger 14 in der Bewegungsrichtung 16 führt. Zudem fixiert die Führungseinheit 34 den Topfträger 14 in der Radialrichtung 36 im Wesentlichen. Die Radialrichtung 36 ist im Wesentlichen senkrecht zu der Schwerkraftrichtung 18 ausgerichtet. Die Führungseinheit 34 weist ein Führungsbauteil 54 auf, das in dem montierten Zustand von dem Topfträger 14 umgeben ist. Das Führungsbauteil 54 erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen über einen gesamten von dem Basisbauteil 46 des Topfträgers 14 umgebenen Bereich. Alternativ ist denkbar, dass das Führungsbauteil sich jeweils zwischen zwei einander bezüglich der Radialrichtung gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Basisbauteils erstreckt, beispielsweise kreuzförmig über einen Mittelpunkt des von dem Basisbauteil umgebenen Bereichs hinweg und bezüglich der Schwerkraftrichtung unterhalb der Trägerbauteile. Zusätzlich zu einer Führung des Topfträgers 14 ist das Führungsbauteil 54 zu einer Lagerung des Brenners 42 vorgesehen.The
Eine erste der Endpositionen des Topfträgers 14 entspricht einer Ausgangsstellung, in welcher der Topfträger 14 frei von aufgestelltem Gargeschirr 38 ist (vgl.
Die Gaskochfeldvorrichtung 10 umfasst einen Grundkörper 24, durch welchen der Topfträger 14 in einer Einbaulage getragen ist. Der Grundkörper 24 ist in dem montieren Zustand zwischen den Magneten 20, 30 und den Schaltelementen 12, 32 angeordnet.

Die Steuereinheit 22 erkennt in Abhängigkeit von einer Betätigung der Schaltelemente 12, 32 eine Fehlpositionierung von aufgestelltem Gargeschirr 38. Im Falle einer erkannten Fehlpositionierung von aufgestelltem Gargeschirr 38 gibt die Steuereinheit 22 mittels der Ausgabeeinheit 58 eine Warnung an einen Bediener aus.
