  • the invention is based on the object of creating a system mentioned at the beginning and a method for its operation, with which problems of the prior art can be solved and in particular it is possible to detect cooking vessels placed on the hob surface and to be able to determine their position and / or properties of these cooking vessels such as temperature or the like. to be able to recognize.
  • the hob has a flat hob surface, usually designed as a hob plate.
  • At least one heating device is arranged under the hob surface, advantageously several heating devices or a plurality of heating devices, so that either discrete and separate cooking areas are formed or essentially any surface areas of the hob surface by activating the corresponding underneath arranged heating devices can be used as a hotplate, the size of which is adapted to an attached cooking vessel.
  • a hob control of the hob is provided, which is advantageously arranged below the hob surface. It can be connected to or have an operating device of the hob, which is advantageously arranged at least partially below the hob surface.
  • At least one freely movable and self-propelled monitoring device is provided on the hob or the hob has such a monitoring device.
  • This monitoring device is not permanently connected to the hob surface, but rather detachable therefrom or can be removed, for example for cleaning, repair or other purposes. You will also not with arms or the like. positively driven, but drives itself and can therefore be self-sufficient and independent.
  • the monitoring device has its own energy store and is designed to move freely on the hob surface. In principle, it can move to any point on the hob surface, as long as there is enough space for it.
  • the monitoring device has sensor means in order to detect a cooking vessel placed on the hob surface and / or its temperature and / or its size. This can be a single sensor means; alternatively, several different types of sensor means can be provided. Further sensor means can also be provided for further functions, as will be explained in detail below.
  • the sensor means can be designed differently and be passive or active, as will also be explained below.
  • the monitoring device has a communication device in order to be able to communicate with an operator and / or the hob control in order to be able to transmit information in at least one direction, advantageously bidirectionally.
  • At least the hob control then also has a corresponding communication device, and both advantageously have a radio device.
  • This can work according to a known radio standard, for example via Bluetooth or BLE.
  • information can then also be transmitted very effectively to a mobile terminal of an operator, or bidirectional communication can also take place with it. Information from the monitoring device can possibly also be transmitted to this mobile terminal.
  • the monitoring device has at least one position sensor in order to determine a position and / or a change in position of the monitoring device on the hob surface.
  • the monitoring device itself knows where it is on the hob surface and can either transmit this information directly to the hob control or evaluate it and use it for further processes.
  • the hob control can additionally or exclusively interrogate the position sensor of the monitoring device in order to determine directly where the monitoring device is located.
  • a cooking vessel can be localized and information from the monitoring device can be assigned to individually recorded cooking vessels on the hob surface.
  • the monitoring device also has a drive device which is designed so that the monitoring device is self-propelled. Details of such a possible drive device are also explained below, since within the scope of the invention possibilities have been worked out how such a monitoring device can move as advantageously as possible on the hob surface. In principle, however, it is important for the drive device that it is arranged on or in the monitoring device itself and is therefore movable with it, in order to ensure that the monitoring device can move as freely as possible on the hob surface and thus every point that can be approached that is accessible, can approach.
  • the invention thus creates a possibility of identifying or detecting whether there is at least one cooking vessel on the hob surface and, if so, how many and where.
  • fundamental inherent properties of the cooking vessel can be recorded such as a type, a size, a material or a special identity, as well as operational properties such as a temperature or the like.
  • operational properties such as a temperature or the like.
  • monitoring device that can be freely moved on the hob surface which are explained in detail below.
  • the monitoring device and the drive device thereof are designed in such a way that the monitoring device can move in any direction on the hob surface. In this way she can do her job of finding a cooking vessel as well as possible. In addition, routes can be optimized or shortened.
  • the sensor means can be arranged movably on the monitoring device in such a way that their height above the hob surface and / or an angular orientation of an effective direction of the sensor means relative to the plane of the hob surface can be changed. So it is possible that deviating from the technology mentioned above EP 845 922 A2 a cooking vessel not only at a fixed, mostly low height or, for example, a temperature of a cooking vessel can be detected. If the height is also variable in the vertical direction, a sensor means can additionally detect the height of the cooking vessel and thus its size and thus also an important individualizing property.
  • the sensor means can be moved in height by a moving device, so that the sensor means can be moved, for example, between 1 cm height above the hob surface and 10 cm to 20 cm height.
  • the height can be measured during the procedure, either at intervals or essentially permanently.
  • a sensor means can be constant in its height above the hob surface or not be variable in height, but its angular orientation or its effective direction can be changed towards the hob surface plane. Rotation or pivoting of the sensor means itself is suitable for this, for example by means of a corresponding rotatable or pivotable mounting.
  • only the effective direction of the sensor means can be rotated or pivoted, for example by deflection with a mirror or the like.
  • a change in the angular alignment or effective direction can be changed not only in the vertical direction, but also in the horizontal direction.
  • this can also be replaced by the fact that the monitoring device rotates on the spot by means of the drive device, so to speak, which has the same effect.
  • the sensor means can be designed in such a way that they have an optical sensor.
  • This can advantageously be a photosensor or a CCD chip for visible and / or invisible light, with IR light then being suitable here.
  • a photoelectric reflex switch can be provided with which the presence of a cooking vessel and also its position or at least its distance from it can be recognized in a manner known per se.
  • Such a photoelectric reflex switch should have a corresponding light transmitter in the monitoring device, for example as an IR light transmitter or IR LED.
  • the optical sensor then forms the light receiver for the photoelectric reflex switch.
  • a distance of the sensor means and thus the monitoring device from a reflective surface of a cooking vessel, in particular a side wall, can then advantageously be detected by measuring the transit time.
  • a radar sensor can also be used to detect a size and / or a position of an erected cooking vessel. These are now relatively small and can be easily installed in such a movable monitoring device, for example also in an external add-on module of the monitoring device.
  • Ultrasound can also be used with an ultrasound transmitter and an Ultrasound receiver. Ultrasound can also be directed in many ways like light, for example by means of mirrors.
  • a sensor means of the monitoring device is or can be arranged at a height of at least 4 cm above the hob surface. This is a height that a conventional cooking vessel placed on a hob surface at least has. In this way, the sensor means can in any case detect a cooking vessel that has been set up.
  • the position sensor of the monitoring device can be designed to also detect its alignment or rotational position in addition to determining a position and / or a change in position of the monitoring device. In this way, cooking vessels can be recognized precisely or their position can be recorded because the sensor direction is known, so to speak.
  • the or a position sensor interacts with so-called determination means which are provided on the hob or under the hob surface.
  • These determination means are intended to help determine the position of the monitoring device on the hob surface, if possible in cooperation with the position sensor, so that this position sensor can possibly be designed more simply and / or work more precisely.
  • the determination means can be designed to be active; then, for example, they can be a transmitter in the manner of a direction finding transmitter. This transmitter can have a transmission source, advantageously punctiform, which transmits a signal. If at least two of these transmitters are provided on the hob, in particular in corner areas of a lateral side of the hob surface, then the exact position of the monitoring device on the hob surface can be detected by simply determining the distance to these two transmitters or transmission sources.
  • the determination means can be passive, so that they can have, for example, optically or mechanically recognizable markings on the hob surface.
  • Optical Markings are often provided on hob surfaces anyway and can be detected with appropriate sensors.
  • Mechanically recognizable markings can be, for example, a slightly raised or upwardly protruding edge of the hob.
  • the position sensor can then have detection means in order to detect these markings.
  • the detection means can either be optical, for example again with a CCD chip or sensors for pattern or image recognition, or work mechanically, for example as switches or force sensors.
  • Another possibility are magnetically recognizable markings in the form of magnets on or under the hob surface, in which case the recognition means can be magnetic field sensors.
  • the detection means can particularly advantageously be directed downwards in order to detect a marking when the monitoring device is located above it. The monitoring device then automatically and inevitably knows exactly where it is.
  • such passive determination means can be designed not to determine the position of the monitoring device at every point on the hob surface, but to carry out at least a calibration or calibration of the position sensor or position detection.
  • the position sensors per se can be of a somewhat simpler design, since they do not have to have permanently high accuracy.
  • the monitoring device can have a movement sensor which is designed such that it detects a movement of the movement device in any direction. In particular, it can also detect a rotation in order to be able to carry out the aforementioned recognition of a rotational position or alignment.
  • a movement sensor can then be used to detect a movement path of the monitoring device when the monitoring device then starts a movement from a fixed known point. When the movement path is then recorded, the monitoring device knows at all times what position it is at. The aforementioned markings can serve to make this position detection more precise again from time to time.
  • a sensor means in the monitoring device can also be designed to detect and evaluate a drive power and / or a drive movement of a drive motor of the drive device for the monitoring device. A position can then also be determined from this alone or in addition to one of the other aforementioned options. In addition, it can also be made possible that a blocking of a movement of the monitoring device is recognized by this sensor means. This information can be important in general, as well as further it can also be deduced from this that the monitoring device has hit a cooking vessel and can therefore not continue. If the monitoring device then deliberately drives several times in the approximate direction where it was stopped for the first time, but each time shifted a little to the side, at least part of the outline of a cooking vessel can be recognized from this.
  • Either the exact size and the exact position of the cooking vessel can then be calculated assuming a circular cooking vessel with three points. Alternatively, even more points can be approached, possibly also several points along the entire circumference, for example up to 10 or even up to 20 points. This then gives the exact shape and position.
  • the monitoring device actively moves the cooking vessel to a point and / or in a direction that has been specified for it by the hob control.
  • the monitoring device can thus first detect the exact size and the exact position of the cooking vessel, as has been described above. If the hob control then considers a different or slightly changed position for the cooking vessel to be better, for example shifted by 2 cm to 20 cm, the movable monitoring device can move the cooking vessel accordingly into the better position. To do this, it must of course be strong enough and be able to generate sufficient drive power.
  • the communication device of the monitoring device advantageously has a transmitting device and a receiving device.
  • Information can be sent to the hob control and, if necessary, information can also be received from the hob control, so it is bidirectional. This can, for example, also be information that is to be displayed on the monitoring device for an operator or to be displayed to an operator. This can be information about an operating state of the hob, in particular also about program sequences on the hob, such as automatic cooking programs or the like.
  • the hob control advantageously has a corresponding communication device. If necessary, the monitoring device can also communicate with the aforementioned mobile terminal of an operator and send and / or receive information for this purpose.
  • the monitoring device has its own internal energy store. This is advantageously designed as a rechargeable battery so that it is self-sufficient in its operation.
  • the monitoring device particularly advantageously has a charging device which is designed for inductive charging.

  • the drive means are advantageously designed accordingly, particularly advantageously by means of different drives.
  • a separate drive can be provided for each wheel or each caterpillar, which is then controlled individually for a precisely predetermined movement. This is known per se from the prior art for small autonomous vehicles, in particular robotic vehicles.

  • the spherical housing is then firmly mounted on the drive means of the main unit like a shell.
  • the main unit remains essentially the same aligned with respect to a vertical axis due to the low center of gravity, and a relative movement between the main unit and housing results in a rotation of the housing so that it rolls like a ball on the hob surface.

  • the above is again referred to DE 20 2015 002 763 U1 referenced.
  • the upper drive wheels can also be dispensed with in a simple embodiment of the invention.

  • the advantage of this add-on module is that it is actually always arranged in the same position on the housing, for example on its top or at its maximum height.
  • the sensor means can also have a free line of sight, so to speak, and, if necessary, look in all directions when rotating. It is of course also possible that an effective direction of a sensor means in this add-on module is determined by a movement of the monitoring device or the housing itself.

In some cases it can even be provided that the named main unit within the housing is only responsible for a corresponding movement of the monitoring device, possibly also for a targeted movement, or a position detection of the monitoring device can be taken over by the main unit. Sensor-based monitoring of processes on the hob surface or of cooking vessels on the hob surface is then taken over by the add-on module, which, so to speak, works independently within the movable monitoring device itself.

  • Contactless temperature detection by means of IR radiation or thermal radiation on the outside of a cooking vessel, that is to say its temperature-dependent radiation, is preferred.
  • a temperature of the hob surface itself can also be detected, for example for a known hot display of the hob.

  • a spectrometer can be arranged similarly to the aforementioned optical sensor and can also be operated similarly. This is known per se for spectrometers and for the person skilled in the art also easy to implement here with a hob.
  • Modern spectrometers are also made relatively small and can be operated easily. It is also advantageous for the use of such a spectrometer if the distance between the spectrometer and a surface to be examined, namely that of the cooking vessel, is relatively small. This makes the measurement predictably more accurate. Furthermore, disturbing influences or possible disturbances can be avoided as a further significant advantage.
  • the hob can have several identical monitoring devices on its hob surface. These monitoring devices are advantageously designed identically, which makes production easier. These monitoring devices can communicate with their communication devices with the hob control and / or with one another. Direct communication of the monitoring devices with one another has the advantage that it is just possible for the monitoring devices to organize themselves and work together, so to speak. In principle, it can thus be possible for the hob surface to be divided into partial areas, with one or precisely one monitoring device being provided for each partial area. However, this fixed division can be changed, either by the hob control or by the group of monitoring devices themselves, if, for example, a cooking vessel is placed on the hob surface in such a way that it significantly covers two partial areas.

  • a further example of a possible advantageous cooperation of several monitoring devices would be if a monitoring device is prevented from reaching a certain area where it should and wanted to measure something by means of set up cooking vessels or by hot areas of the hob surface. This task can then be given to another free monitoring device which, at least due to the detectable circumstances, should be able to get into this area. If this monitoring device does not succeed in a practical test either, then, if another monitoring device is available, it can be commissioned to do so.

On the one hand, as explained at the beginning, this can communicate with the radio device 22 of the hob control 20 in the manner described at the beginning. Furthermore, the radio module 40 can also serve to communicate with a mobile terminal in the form of a tablet computer 65 shown here by means of its radio device 66, in particular via Bluetooth. In this way, information from the monitoring device 30 can also be given to the tablet computer 65 so that an operator can have this information displayed. Alternatively, the monitoring device 30 can also be influenced via this tablet computer 65, for example at least partial reprogramming.
  • the attachment 42 on the housing 32 of the monitoring device 30 is shown in FIG Fig. 1 designed to be rotatable. It can be invariable in height, so that sensor means arranged thereon only act at a certain height, but instead in every direction, that is to say practically in one plane. If this level is several centimeters above the hob plate 12, then this can be sufficient to identify cooking vessels such as the cooking vessel 26 that have been set up in any case.
  • Such a configuration of the attachment 42 is shown in Fig. 2 shown.
  • a light transmitter 43 is provided on the side with light beams 46 shown in dashed lines, which run approximately in a horizontal plane. Reflected light rays 46 fall on the light receiver 44 arranged below.
  • An optical system 45 can be provided in a manner known per se.
  • a photoelectric reflex switch explained at the outset can be set up in order to detect the presence of a cooking vessel on the hob plate 12 and, if necessary, also the distance to it. This can be done simply by measuring the transit time, as is known for photoelectric retro-reflective sensors. An evaluation can take place in the controller 36 of the monitoring device 30.
  • the controller 36 can also use the radio module 40 and the two radio transmitters 24a and 24b to determine the position on the hob plate 12 by determining the distance to these radio transmitters 24a and 24b. This is technically not very difficult. If the radio transmitter 24 in, for example, the two rear corner areas according to Fig. 6 have been set, the position of the monitoring device can easily and clearly be determined from the distance between the monitoring device 30 and these two radio transmitters 24. The two rear corner areas are very suitable for this.
  • the controller 36 can also contain a movement sensor, which was explained at the beginning and which, taken by itself, detects any movement and can determine a movement path therefrom. It can also align the direction of rotation of the monitoring device 30 take place so that it always knows in which direction it is oriented. This is important for the alignment of the sensor means. For this purpose, only their alignment with the monitoring device 30 itself or with its housing 32 needs to be known.
  • a somewhat more complex attachment 142 for the monitoring device is shown.
  • a light transmitter 143 and a light receiver 144 do not point directly in the direction in which an expected cooking vessel is placed, but upwards.
  • a MEMS mirror 145 is arranged above this as a type of optics for the light beams 146, with which they can easily be deflected vertically and advantageously horizontally within a certain angular range.
  • Such a use of such a MEMS mirror is for a similar purpose from the European patent application with application number EP 17168739.5 with the filing date of April 28, 2017 by the same applicant, to which reference is hereby expressly made. In this way, a deflection or control of the light beams 146 can be achieved relatively easily in a direction that is not completely arbitrary, but in a varying direction with sufficient practicality.
  • only one light receiver 44 can be provided as sensor means, which is an IR sensor. So can, as from the aforementioned EP 845 922 A2 is known, a temperature of a cooking vessel 26 can be detected by its heat radiation on an outside. Such a temperature measurement was explained at the beginning. Yet another alternative is the use of ultrasound with an ultrasound transmitter and an ultrasound receiver. This is also possible in combination with a named MEMS system. In a similar form, an aforementioned spectrometer could also be arranged on a monitoring device.
  • the same applies to the attachment 42 Fig. 2 also easy to imagine that this can be rotated about a vertical axis of rotation.
  • a certain surface area can either be searched for a cooking vessel at all or the temperature of a recognized and known cooking vessel can be recorded.
  • FIG. 4 a simple design for a monitoring device 230 can be seen in partial representation, an attachment 242 being adjustable in height in the housing 232 here.
  • an elongated toothed rail 248 is attached, which can be adjusted in height by means of a driven gear 249.

This is known from the aforementioned prior art.
  • a center of gravity of the main unit 331 (not shown here) is arranged significantly lower than a geometric center point of the spherical housing 332, so that the main unit 331 essentially always has a corresponding vertical alignment Fig. 5 tried to stay.

However, other sensor means can also be provided, for example an IR temperature sensor, a radar sensor or the like.
  • the transmitters work advantageously inductively and can either transmit the respective signals or energy to a control system, not shown here, including energy storage device.
  • Holding magnet 354 and counter magnet 355 are advantageously designed in such a way that not only do they remain exactly opposite one another even when the housing 332 is rotating, but their alignment with one another also remains the same.

  • Light guides 359 are provided in the form of a ring, which are illuminated by LEDs 360 connected to the controller 336. This luminous phenomenon can be seen through the housing 332, so that an operator knows from the luminous phenomenon that an operation is possible at this point.
