  • a switching position of the "normally closed” contacts of the further switches 40a, 42a could be coupled to a switching position of the "normally open” contacts of the switches 30b, 32b of the configuration unit 12b.
  • the configuration unit 12b and the switching unit 38b are designed independently of one another.
  • switching positions of the configuration unit 12b and switching positions of the switching unit 38b can be set independently of one another.
  • the configuration unit 12b is provided by means of the switches 30b, 32b to operate the inverters 18b, 20b in parallel on a group of the heating elements 26b, 28b. It is conceivable here that the configuration unit 12b in the operating mode operates the inverters 18b, 20b in parallel on exactly one heating element 26b, 28b of a group of the heating elements 26b, 28b. Alternatively, the configuration unit 12b in the operating mode could operate the inverters 18b, 20b in parallel on a plurality and / or all the heating elements 26b, 28b of a group of the heating elements 26b, 28b. It is also conceivable that the configuration unit 12b operates each of the inverters 18b, 20b on one of the groups of heating elements 26b, 28b in a further operating mode, a large part and advantageously all heating elements 26b, 28b being operated together.
  • the cooktop device 10b comprises a plurality of resonance capacitances 62b.
  • Each resonance capacitance 62b has capacitors. Alternatively, configurations with a different number of capacitors are conceivable.
  • Each resonance capacitance 62b is assigned to one of the heating elements 26b, 28b, a number of resonance capacitances 62b being essentially the same as a number of heating elements 26b, 28b.
  • the cooktop device 10b has exactly one resonance capacitance 62b per group of heating elements 26b, 28b.
  • the cooktop device 10b could in particular have two resonance capacitances 62b, each of which could be assigned to a group of heating elements 26b, 28b.
  • configurations with a different number of inverters are possible, in particular with more than two inverters, which could each be connected to the rectifier.
  • a number of switches of the configuration unit would be adapted accordingly, wherein in particular an algorithm could be used to calculate a minimally required number of switches.
