Abstract:
The present invention relates to an illumination device for a cooking hob with a glass ceramic panel. The illumination device includes a funnel-shaped reflector (10) with an upper open side and a lower open side. The illumination device includes at least one light source (36) arranged or arrangable at the lower open side and a transparent cover element (14) arranged or arrangable at the upper open side of the reflector (10). The illumination device includes at least one diffuser screen (16) arranged or arrangable between the light source (36) and the cover element (14). The diffuser screen (16) is made of a semitransparent material. The cross-section of the diffuser screen (16) is smaller than the cross-section of the reflector (10) enclosing said diffuser screen (16), so that lateral light beams (52) from the light source (36) to the cover element (14) can pass the diffuser screen (16). Further, the present invention relates to a cooking hob with a glass ceramic panel and at least one illumination device.
