    Abstract: A cooktop grate assembly includes a heat shield having an outer rim and a central plateau region offset from the outer rim by a connecting wall. The central plateau region defines an opening for receiving a burner assembly. A grate is positioned over the heat shield. The grate includes supports that extend over the central plateau region. A gasket is disposed adjacent to the heat shield. The gasket engages at least one of a base of the grate and feet of the supports to retain the grate in position relative to the heat shield.

    Abstract: A cooking vessel support for a burner includes a grate and a support foot. The grate has a top surface configured to support a cooking vessel and a lower surface configured for disposal along an upper surface of a cooking appliance. The lower surface defines a cavity. The support foot is disposed within the cavity, has a first protrusion disposed within a first portion of the cavity, has a second protrusion disposed within a second portion of the cavity, and has pad disposed within a third portion of the cavity. The first protrusion is secured to the pad along a side of the pad. The first and second protrusions are configured to engage first and second internal surfaces of the grate within the first and second portions of the cavity, respectively, to restrict movement of the base support in first and second directions, respectively.

    Abstract: A knob assembly for a gas cooktop may include a knob configured to control a flow of gas from a burner of a cooktop starting at a resting position, the knob defining a hollow interior and having a support cylinder extending vertically through the hollow interior, wherein the support cylinder includes a projection flap protruding therefrom, an inner lock ring arranged at least partially within the hollow interior of the knob and having a chamfered region defining a ring opening adjacent an inclined portion, where the opening is configured to selectively receive the projection flap in response to depression of the knob and where the projection flap slides along the inclined portion in response to subsequent rotation of the knob, the inclined portion imparting frictional resistance on the projection flap to prevent against unintentional rotation of the knob.
