Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2600690A2] The device has a hob plate (10c) provided with a free installation position (12c) for heating a dish (14c). A control unit (20c) receives a signal from an installation measurement unit (18c) to initiate determination of the installation position. The measurement unit comprises installation sensors (24c, 26c) i.e. vibration sensors (28c, 30c, 32c), that communicate with the plate. The control unit roughly determines the installation position based on spacing parameters i.e. signal propagation times. The heating unit is integrally formed with a position measurement unit. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for operating a hob device (2) a hob.
