Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02089528A1] A cooking controller assembly includes a heating element (510), a push-to-turn rotary switch (100) and an electric controller. The heating element is coupled to the push-to-turn rotary switch and the electric controller (505). The push-to-turn rotary switch (100) is manually pushed and turned to selectively connect power to the heating element. The electric controller is coupled to the push-to-turn rotary switch and the heating element, and electrically controls the power to the heating element in relation to the manual rotation of the push-to-turn rotary switch.
