Definitions
- the invention relates to a hob in particular used in domestic cooking.
- the cooktop has at least one cooking and a control means of this hearth.
- This control means can for example be a rotary button or a keyboard.
- the table cooking has several hearths, it includes as many means of order only from homes.
- the subject of the invention is a hob comprising a hob comprising at least one cooking hearth, a control panel comprising means for controlling the cooking hearth, and means for display showing the connection between the control means and the fireplace cooking, characterized in that the display means has the form of at least minus a line located on the hob, a line including a first end is located in the vicinity of the cooking hearth and of which a second end is located near the control panel near the control means.
- the means of display is an indicator light, which has the advantage of allow viewing of other information such as, for example, the hearth temperature, the power control level of the hearth or a fireplace malfunction.
- Figure 1 shows in perspective a hob comprising a substantially horizontal cooking surface 1 and a table of control 2 located on the front of the hob and in a plane substantially vertical.
- control panel 2 Other positions of the control panel 2 are of course possible to implement the invention. As an example, we find commonly cooktops with the control panel in the same plane as the hob 1 is in front or on the side of the hob 1.
- the hob has four cooking zones 3, 4, 5, 6 but it is of course the invention can be implemented whatever the number of households.
- the four foci 3, 4, 5, 6 shown in Figure 1 are located substantially at the four corners of the hob. Here again, the position of the foci is indifferent for the implementation of the invention.
- the control panel has four control means 7, 8, 9, 10, each capable of controlling the level of power delivered by one of the four foci 3, 4, 5, 6.
- the control means 7 is associated with the hearth 3
- the control means 8 is associated with the hearth 4
- the control means 9 is associated with the hearth 5
- the control means 10 is associated with the hearth 6.
- control means 7 to 10 is indifferent for the invention. They can for example include a rotary button or a keyboard.
- the hob has four indicator lights 11, 12, 13, 14 making it possible to view the connection between a control means and the home he commands.
- the indicator 11 visualizes the connection between the control means 7 and the hearth 3
- the indicator 12 shows the connection between the control means 8 and the hearth 4
- the light 13 displays the connection between the control means 9 and the hearth 5
- the indicator 14 visualizes the connection between the control means 10 and the hearth 6.
- the four indicator lights 11 to 14 are located on the hob 1. All four have the shape of at least at least one line, the first end of which is located near the hearth with which it is associated and whose second end is located in the vicinity of the control panel near the control means to which it is associated.
- the light line allows the user to associate with a simple look, the hearth to its means of control.
- the line can be from anywhere which shape, such as a curved line or a segment of right.
- the two embodiments illustrated with the aid of Figures 2 and 3 represent indicator lights visible through transparency under a transparent hearth plate 23 made for example of glass or vitroceramic. But it is of course possible to implement the invention with a non-transparent hearth plate such as, for example, enamelled sheet above which you can place the indicator lights.
- each indicator light 11 to 14 is produced by means of a light bar 20.
- the bar 20 is elongated in the direction of the line bright. It has a surface 21 in contact with a lower face 22 of the plate 23. One of its ends 24 is illuminated by means of a light source 25.
- the bar 20 diffuses the light emitted by the source luminous 25 over the entire length of the surface 21.
- the bar 20 and the light source 25 are chosen so that the light flux passing through the plate 23 is sufficient for the user.
- the source light 25 is placed at the end of the bar 20 located near the control panel 2 not shown in FIG. 2. Thus, the source light 25 is far from the focus and you can choose a light source 25 not very resistant to heat, such as a diode or an incandescent lamp, which presents the advantage of reducing the cost of producing the hob.
- the bar 20 is for example made in the following way: the bar 20 is of square section; surface 21 is frosted and the other three elongated surfaces are made reflective. You can also drown the bar 20 in the plate 23.
- the bar 20 When the stoves placed under the ceramic hob are likely to generate heat by themselves, such as radiant or halogen fireplaces, the bar 20 must withstand the heat released by homes. However, an induction fireplace that does not give off that little heat by itself will not impose as many constraints thermal for the bar 20.
- FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of a light indicator, an embodiment also well suited to the use of a transparent hearth plate 23 under which a path of light points is placed.
- the path of light points comprises a certain number of light points L 1 to L n placed on a line showing the connection between the hearth 3 and the control means 7.
- the number n of light points is chosen as a function of the length of the line and the visual impression that we want to give the user.
- Each light point can be achieved by any means such as for example by means of an incandescent lamp.
- each light point L 1 to L n by means of a light-emitting diode, in particular because of its ease of control, its long service life, its low temperature rise, its reduced size making it possible to increase the number of points on the line and its moderate cost.
- this embodiment is mainly to be reserved for induction stoves, in particular when light-emitting diodes are used which would not withstand the heat given off by a radiant or halogen hearth.
- the indicator light in addition to viewing the connection between a household and its control means, the indicator light as described above allows the user to transmit other information relating to the operation of the fireplace such as the level of control in power of the stove given by the user using the control means, the temperature of the fireplace or a malfunction of the fireplace.
- varying the light intensity of the source light 25 You can also turn the light source 25 on and off at a certain frequency.
- the variation in light intensity is for example used to visualize the level of power control of the fireplace. Periodic switching on and off is for example used for view a malfunction of the fireplace.
- this mode only allows two pieces of information to be transmitted to the user, one using the light intensity and the other using the frequency on and off. To transmit a larger number information to the user, it is possible to place several bars bright one next to the other.
- FIG. 3 makes it possible, in a manner comparable to what has been described above, to simultaneously switch on all the light points at the same intensity, this intensity possibly being variable. It is also possible to switch all the light points on and off simultaneously at a certain frequency. In addition, it is possible to switch on only certain light points, for example to give the user the impression of a displacement of at least one light point.
- FIG. 3 there are shown groups of three light points lit for example L 2 , L 3 , L 4 , each group being separated from the next group by a group for example L 5 , L 6 of two light points extinct.
