The invention relates to a cooking appliance device as claimed in the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for producing a cooking appliance device as claimed in the preamble of claim 13.
Hobs which have heating units with induction coils, which are fastened to a substrate unit, are known from the prior art. The substrate unit is provided to retain the induction coil relative to a hotplate and to define a course of a conductor of the induction coil. Various methods are known for fastening induction coils to the substrate unit, for instance the use of brackets, screws, flaps, adhesives, and plastic profiles is known. These known solutions are however only suited specifically to operating temperatures of above 500° C. since the use of special heat-resistant materials is expensive and current fixing methods are not designed for a thermal expansion of the induction coil.
The object of the invention consists in particular in providing a generic device with improved properties with respect to robustness and cost-efficiency. The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claims 1 and 13, while advantageous embodiments and developments of the invention can be taken from the subclaims.
The invention is based on a cooking appliance device, in particular an induction oven device, with at least one heating unit, which has at least one induction coil with at least one electrical conductor, at least one substrate unit and at least one fastening unit, which fastens the induction coil to the substrate unit.
In one aspect of the invention, it is proposed that the fastening unit fastens the conductor in at least one region to the substrate unit so as to be movable relative to the substrate unit. In this way a robustness can be increased in particular. Changes to a course of the conductor can advantageously be balanced out and/or compensated for by a thermal expansion of the induction coil. In particular, a deformation of the induction coil as a result of the thermal expansion from a main extension plane of the induction coil can advantageously be avoided. Furthermore, damage to the fastening unit can advantageously be avoided by the thermal expansion of the induction coil.
A “cooking appliance device”, in particular an “induction oven device” is understood to mean in particular at least one part, in particular a subassembly, of a cooking appliance, in particular an induction oven. In particular, the cooking appliance device, in particular the induction oven device, can also comprise the entire cooking appliance, in particular the entire induction oven. A “cooking appliance” is to be understood to mean in particular a household appliance, which is provided to heat up and/or keep an item of crockery and/or a food to be cooked to/at a predefined temperature for preparation and/or storage purposes. Exemplary cooking appliances are ovens and/or microwaves and/or barbecue grills and/or steam cookers and/or hobs.
The cooking appliance preferably has at least an internal housing and external housing. An “internal housing” is to be understood to mean in particular a wall unit, which delimits at least one interior, in particular a cooking compartment, at least to a large extent outward, and is itself delimited outward at least by the external housing. The internal housing advantageously has a ferromagnetic metal. The induction coil is particularly advantageously provided to inductively heat at least one part of the internal housing during operation of the cooking appliance device. The part of the internal housing preferably comprises a ceiling wall and/or a base wall of the internal housing, in particular to provide a conventional heating mode known as “top and bottom heating”. The internal housing is preferably embodied as a cooking baffle.

An “external housing” of an appliance is understood to mean in particular a wall unit, which defines an outer surface of the appliance at least to a large extent. “At least to a large extent” in this context is to be understood to mean in particular at least 60%, advantageously at least 70%, particularly advantageously at least 80%, preferably at least 90% and particularly preferably completely.
A “heating unit” is to be understood to mean in particular a unit which is provided to heat and/or keep warm at least one food to be cooked and/or item of crockery arranged in a predefined heating zone. In particular, the heating unit has at least one induction coil, through which current flows in particular during operation of the heating unit and at least one electromagnetic field for heating and/or keeping warm the food to be cooked and/or item of crockery. The induction coil has at least one conductor, which can be produced for instance by means of stamping and/or sawing and/or cutting, in particular beam cutting, a metal plate. In particular, the conductor can be embodied as an individual wire and/or preferably as a stranded wire. In particular, a stranded structure of a conductor embodied as a stranded wire can compensate for the thermal expansion of the conductor. The conductor advantageously has at least one coating, which thermally and/or electrically insulates the conductor.
A “substrate unit” is to be understood to mean in particular a unit, which can be connected in particular fixedly with the internal housing and which is provided to retain the induction coil relative to the internal housing and/or to the item of crockery and or food to be heated up. In particular, the substrate unit is arranged between the induction coil and the internal housing. Alternatively, the induction coil could be arranged between the substrate unit and the internal housing. It would be conceivable for the cooking appliance device to have a number of substrate units, which are arranged in particular stacked and in each case retain a winding of the induction coil preferably between individual layers. It would be conceivable for the internal housing to be used to receive at least the heating unit. For instance, the substrate unit could be glued and/or riveted and/or screwed to the internal housing. It would be conceivable for the substrate unit to be fastened directly on the internal housing, in particular to be embodied in one piece with the internal housing. In this way in particular a distance between the induction coil and the internal housing can be minimized. “Embodied in one piece” is to be understood to mean in particular at least connected with a material bond, for instance by means of a welding process, an adhesion process, an injection process and/or another process which appears to be useful to the person skilled in the art and/or advantageously molded in one piece, such as for instance by means of manufacture from a cast and/or by manufacture in a single or multicomponent injection method and advantageously from an individual blank.
In particular, the substrate unit could be fastened indirectly to the internal housing. Further the heating unit could have at least one thermal insulation, by way of which the substrate unit is fastened indirectly to the internal housing. The substrate unit preferably has at least one heat-resistant material. “Heat-resistant material” is to be understood to mean in particular a material which withstands temperatures of at least 500° C., advantageously at least 550° C. and preferably at least 600° C., without changing chemically. The substrate unit particularly advantageously has at least one electrically insulating material. An “electrically insulating material” is to be understood to mean in particular a material which has a specific electrical resistance of at least 1012 (Ωmm2) and is non-conducting in particular at least with respect to a current flowing through the induction coil during operation. It would be conceivable for the substrate unit to consist at least partially of at least one heat-resistant plastic.
Preferably the substrate unit consists at least partially, preferably to a large extent and particularly advantageously entirely from a material which contains at least the chemical elements silicon and oxygen. The substrate unit preferably has at least one silicate. A “silicate” is to be understood to mean in particular a salt and/or an ester of an orthosilicic acid and in particular also its condensate. In particular, a mineral is to be understood here, the chemical composition of which has at least one SiO4 tetrahedron. Exemplary applications for silicates are fibers and/or glasses. The substrate unit preferably has at least basalt, spar, dolomite, diabase, anorthosite, coke, glass fibers, soluble glass and/or mica. The substrate unit is embodied particularly preferably in a mat-like manner. A “mat-like element” is to be understood to mean in particular an element, for which a smallest possible, notional square exists, which just receives the element, the shortest side of which corresponds to at most 30%, advantageously at most 20%, particularly advantageously at most 10%, preferably at most 5% and particularly preferably at most 2% of a longest side of the square. In particular a mat-like element can be expanded, preferably folded. In particular, the substrate unit can also be embodied in a plate-like manner. The substrate unit preferably has a thickness of at most 500 μm, advantageously at most 450 μm, particularly advantageously at most 400 μm, preferably at most 300 μm and particularly preferably at most 200 μm.
The fact that the fastening unit fastens the conductor to the substrate unit “in at least one region so as to be movable relative to the substrate unit” is to be understood to mean in particular that the induction coil can move within the region relative to the substrate unit, in particular an edge region of the region generates a stop, which prevents a further movement of the induction coil. A length of a permitted movement of the conductor advantageously corresponds to at least 50%, advantageously at least 70%, particularly advantageously at least 90% and preferably at least 100% of a conductor thickness of the conductor. A permitted movement of the conductor preferably corresponds to an expansion movement produced by a thermal expansion of the induction coil, preferably during an operation of the induction coil. A permitted movement of the conductor particularly preferably corresponds to a shrinking movement produced by a thermal shrinkage of the induction coil. In particular the region can extend over the entire induction coil. The region advantageously has a further winding which is identical in particular to a winding of the induction coil. For instance, the induction coil with the substrate unit can be glued, sewn, welded, and/or inserted into the substrate unit.
A “fastening unit” is to be understood to mean in particular a unit which is provided to fasten the induction coil at least partially, in particular entirely, to the substrate unit. In particular, the fastening unit is embodied separately from the substrate unit and/or the conductor. The fastening unit preferably has at least one heat-resistant and/or electrically insulating material. It is advantageously possible to dispense with using additional thermal insulations for the fastening unit and/or the substrate unit. For instance, the fastening unit could have a material which is identical to a material of the substrate unit. In particular, the fastening unit can have at least one fastening element for fastening the induction coil to the substrate unit. The fastening element can be a bracket, a screw, a flap, an adhesive and/or a plastic profile, for instance.
“Provided” is to be understood to mean in particular specially designed and/or equipped. The fact that an object is provided for a specific function is to be understood to mean in particular that the object fulfils and/or carries out this specific function in at least one application and/or operating state.
In a further aspect of the invention, which can be considered separately from or in combination with further aspects of the invention, it is proposed that the fastening unit has at least one thread and the induction coil is fastened to the substrate unit by means of at least one joint having the thread. The fact that the induction coil is fastened “by means of a joint having the thread” is to be understood to mean in particular that the thread penetrates the substrate unit at least once and, in this way, defines the region. In particular, the thread can run at a minimal distance from the conductor. The fact that the thread runs “at a minimal distance” from the conductor is to be understood to mean in particular that the thread runs within a close-up range of the conductor, which extends at most by 100%, advantageously at most by 80%, particularly advantageously at most by 60%, preferably at most by 40% and particularly preferably at most by 20% of a width of the conductor at right angles to a longitudinal direction of the conductor. Alternatively the thread can run at a distance from the conductor. A course of the thread advantageously corresponds to a course of the stop. In particular the fastening unit can have further joints having further threads, by means of which the induction coil is fastened to the substrate unit. The thread preferably has at least one heat-resistant and electrically-insulating material. For instance, the thread could have a material which is identical to a material of the substrate unit. In particular, the thread can penetrate the substrate unit according to different, standardized sewing methods, which are carried out in particular in ASTM D-6193 and ISO 4915:1991. For instance, the joint and/or the further joints can run in accordance with a Lockstitch method and/or a zig-zag method. In particular, a longitudinal direction of the thread can correspond to a longitudinal direction of a closest-lying conductor segment of the conductor. This in particular increases robustness and enables a simplified production of the cooking appliance device. The induction coil can advantageously also be kept at high temperatures and insulated electrically. Fastening the induction coil to the substrate unit can be established particularly advantageously by current, automatically implementable methods.
Furthermore, it is proposed that the fastening unit has at least one further thread and the induction coil is fastened to the substrate unit by means of at least one further joint having the further thread. Both threads preferably have courses which are identical to one another. In particular, both threads could have courses which are mirror-inverted with respect to one another. It would be conceivable for both threads to intersect at least in sections. Advantageously both threads define the region. Both threads, when viewed at right angles onto the substrate, are arranged particularly advantageously on opposing sides of the conductor. “Opposing sides of the conductor” are to be understood to mean in particular two subregions, which rest against a conductor segment, wherein viewed from the conductor segment a first subregion of a coil center is facing the inductor coil and a second subregion is facing away from the coil center. In this way a robustness can in particular be further increased. Advantageously a stability of the region can be increased. Particularly advantageously an expansion of the region can be selected more flexibly.
Furthermore, it is proposed that the thread and in particular the further thread, when viewed at right angles onto the substrate unit, run at least in sections across the conductor and/or intersect the conductor. “Viewed at right angles onto an object” is to be understood to mean in particular a viewing direction which runs along a straight line, which intersects the object at a right angle. With a flat object, the viewing direction runs at right angles to a main extension plane of the object. A “main extension plane” of an object is to be understood to mean in particular a plane which is parallel to a largest side surface of a smallest notional square which just encloses the object entirely and in particular runs through the center point of the square. When viewed at right angles, advantageously at least one cohesive side of the object is completely visible. The fact that the thread “runs and/or intersects” in sections across the conductor is to be understood to mean in particular that the thread runs in a segment at least once from a first side of the conductor to an opposing second side of the conductor. The thread advantageously runs across and/or intersects the conductor repeatedly, in particular at periodic intervals. In particular, the thread can run across a complete periphery of the conductor. The thread preferably runs at most across one part, in particular at most one half, of the periphery of the conductor. Particularly advantageously the thread runs and/or intersects the thread periodically in the entire region. This can further increase in particular robustness and further simplify the production of the cooking appliance device. Advantageously a movement of the induction coil at right angles to a main extension plane of the substrate unit can be restricted without using further fastening elements. An advantageous assembly can be enabled particularly advantageously since the induction coil can be wound and fastened in particular in one method step.
In an advantageous embodiment, it is proposed that the thread and in particular the further thread, when viewed at right angles onto the substrate, runs at least in sections, preferably constantly, laterally adjacent, in particular parallel, to the conductor. In particular, the thread and/or the further thread runs at a distance from the conductor, which corresponds at least 50%, advantageously at least 70%, particularly advantageously at least 80% and preferably at least 90% to the conductor thickness. In particular, the thread and/or the further thread can run between two windings of the conductor. In this way the cooking appliance device can be produced in particular in a simple manner. The induction coil can advantageously be fastened easily to the substrate unit. The region can particularly advantageously define a fixed conductor distance from the induction coil.
Furthermore, it is proposed that the further thread, when viewed at right angles onto the substrate unit, runs at least in sections laterally adjacent to the conductor and on a side of the conductor opposing the thread. In particular, a further distance of the further thread from the conductor is identical to the distance of the thread from the conductor. Alternatively, the distance of the further thread from the conductor could differ from the distance of the thread from the conductor. In particular, the thread and the further thread can intersect at least in sections, preferably periodically, and the change the sides. A distance of the thread from the further thread minus a thickness of the conductor preferably corresponds to the length of the expansion movement. In this way, support of the induction can be improved in particular. Advantageously, the induction coil can be held effectively in a state prior to thermal expansion and also in a state following thermal expansion.
The region advantageously has at least two subregions which oppose one another with respect to a coil center of the induction coil, in which the fastening unit fastens the conductor movably to the substrate unit in each case relative to the substrate unit. “Two subregions which oppose one another with respect to a coil center” are to be understood to mean in particular two subregions of the induction coil, which can be connected, when viewed at right angles onto the substrate unit, at least to a large extent by straight lines, which intersect the coil center. Both subregions preferably have identical expansions. In particular, the induction coil can be fastened movably to the substrate unit at numerous pairs of opposing subregions relative to the substrate unit. In this way a robustness can in particular be further increased. Advantageously a rotation of the induction coil about an axis of rotation parallel to a main extension plane of the substrate unit can be restricted.
In particular, permitted movements of the conductor comprise at least one movement along a direction which faces radially away from a coil center of the induction coil. Advantageously a length of the movement corresponds at least to the expansion movement of the induction coil produced by the thermal expansion of the induction coil. At least the edge region of the region, in particular the entire region, is preferably facing the coil center when viewed from a nearest conductor segment. In this way a robustness can be further increased here. Advantageously, after operation of the induction coil, a movement of the conductor into a starting position prior to operation of the induction coil can be supported.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that the fastening unit has at least one cover element, which is arranged at least in the region on a side of the induction coil opposing the substrate unit and, on this side, restricts a movement of the induction coil. It would be conceivable for the fastening unit to have a plurality of cover elements, which together cover the entire region. The cover element is preferably fastened to the substrate unit by means of the thread and/or joint having further threads and/or further joint. The fastening unit preferably has precisely one cover element, which covers in particular the entire induction coil. In particular, a main extension plane of the cover element runs parallel to a main extension plane of the induction coil. The cover element advantageously has at least one electrically-insulating and/or heat-resistant material. The cover element preferably has a material which is identical to a material of the substrate unit. In particular, the cover element can be embodied in one piece with the substrate unit. It would be conceivable for the cover element and the substrate unit to be embodied as adjoining subregions of an element of the fastening unit and advantageously to be arranged around the induction coil by folding the element. In this way in particular support of the induction coil can be improved. Advantageously a movement of the induction coil along a direction at right angles to a main extension plane of the substrate unit can be avoided.
Moreover, it is proposed that the substrate unit and the cover element touch at least in sections in the region and form at least one stop with respect to a permitted movement of the conductor. The substrate unit and the cover element advantageously touch at least in the edge region, preferably in the entire edge region. The substrate unit and the cover element particularly advantageously touch on the joint and/or the further joint. In particular, the stop can only be released by means of a tool. The stop is produced, for instance, by means of stamping, adhesion, sewing and/or clamping of the cover element and the substrate unit. The substrate unit is particularly advantageously sewn together with the cover element in the region at least in sections by the thread and/or the further thread. The substrate unit and the cover element preferably touch along an outer edge of the induction coil. The substrate unit and the cover element particularly preferably together form a sleeve, which surrounds the induction coil at least to a large extent. In this way the cooking appliance device can be produced and assembled easily. The induction coil can advantageously be fastened to the cover element by connecting the substrate unit. The heating unit can particularly advantageously be embodied as a compact, portable unit, which is easy to transport and assemble.
Furthermore, it is proposed that the cover element is embodied at least substantially identically to the substrate unit. The fact that the cover element is embodied “at least substantially identically” to the substrate unit is to be understood to mean in particular that a volume and/or a mass of the cover element is embodied to be identical by at least 60%, advantageously at least 70%, particularly advantageously at least 80%, preferably at least 90% and particularly preferably entirely to a further volume and/or to a further mass of the substrate unit. The cover element in the region is advantageously embodied to be identical to the substrate unit. It is conceivable for the cover element and the substrate unit to be embodied differently from one another outside of the region. The cover element is preferably embodied completely identical to the substrate unit. In this way in particular production of the cooking appliance device can be further simplified. The number of different components, which is required to produce the cooking appliance device, can advantageously be reduced.
The invention is based further on a method for producing a cooking appliance device, in particular an induction oven device, with at least one heating unit, which has at least one induction coil with at least one electrical conductor and at least one substrate unit, wherein the induction coil is fastened to the substrate unit.
It is proposed that the conductor is fastened in at least one region to the substrate unit so as to be movable relative to the substrate unit. This can in particular improve robustness and simplify manufacture of the cooking appliance device.
In this regard the cooking appliance device should not be restricted to the afore- described application and embodiment. In particular, the cooking appliance device can have a number which deviates from a number of individual elements, components and units cited herein, in order to fulfil a mode of operation described here.

The substrate unit 18a can be penetrated at least partially for fastening the induction coil 14a. The substrate unit 18a consists entirely of a two-dimensional textile structure. The substrate unit 18a consists entirely of a basalt tissue. Alternatively, the substrate unit 18a could consist partially of the basalt tissue. The substrate unit 18a has a plurality of feedthrough openings 24a. The feedthrough openings 24a are arranged periodically. The feedthrough openings 24a are arranged along a plurality of straight lines.
The heating unit 12a has a fastening unit 20a (cf.
The fastening unit 20a has a further fastening element. The induction coil 14a is fastened to the substrate unit 18a by means of a further joint having a further thread 32a. The further thread 32a is embodied to be identical to the thread 22a. The further thread 32a has a further course which is identical to a course of the thread 22a. The further thread 32a is guided through a further part of the feedthrough openings 24a. When viewed at right angles to the substrate unit 18a, the further thread 32a runs on a side of the conductor 16a opposing the thread 22a. Prior to operation of the cooking appliance device 10a a distance of the thread 22a from the conductor 16a is at least largely identical to a further distance of the further thread 32a from the conductor 16a.

Then the further thread 32 is guided through further part of the feedthrough openings 24a in an identical way. Here the sewing step 120a follows on from the insulation step 110.
In an assembly step 130a, the heating unit 12a is mounted on the internal housing 42a. The heating unit 12a is screwed to the internal housing 42a. Alternatively, the heating unit 12a could also be clamped and/or riveted to the internal housing 42a.
