    摘要: The present invention relates to a household appliance (101, 201, 301), particularly a cooking hob, which comprises a control unit for controlling at least one first electric or electronic component or assembly, particularly a heating element (115, 215), e.g. an induction heating coil. The control unit and/or the at least one first electric or electronic component is supplied by a power source by means of a supply wire. At least one second electric or electronic component or assembly (117, 217) is arranged in the interior of the household appliance (101, 210, 301). The second electric or electronic component or assembly (117, 217) comprises energy production, harvesting, receiving or tapping means (125, 225) for providing electrical energy adapted for at least a self-supply of the second electric or electronic component or assembly (117, 217).
    Further, the invention relates a method for powering at least a first and a second electric or electronic component or assembly in a household appliance (101, 210, 301), particularly in a cooking hob. A control unit controls at least one first electric or electronic component or assembly, particularly a heating element (115, 215), e.g. an induction heating coil. A power source, particularly an electronic power board, supplies the control unit and/or the at least one first electric or electronic component or assembly by means of a supply wire. The first electric or electronic component or assembly transmits energy wirelessly during its operation to at least one second electric or electronic component or assembly (117, 217) for an energy supply of the second electric or electronic component or assembly (117, 217) .

    摘要: The present invention relates to modules for induction cooktops having an illumination panel protected from ambient heat by a thermal barrier arranged between the illumination panel and the induction cooktop surface. The illumination panel may be arranged on an induction coil and with a second thermal barrier arranged between the illumination panel and induction coil. A number of modules may be arranged together below the induction cooktop surface so as to create cooking zones where the induction coils are proximate to the induction cooktop surface and display areas where the illumination panels are proximate to the induction cooktop surface.
