Appliance light

A cooking appliance light, comprising:

• an illuminant formed by a circuit board and a LED arranged on the circuit board;
• a light conductor rod including a light entry surface for light emitted by the LED;
• a holder including
• a circuit board receiver arranged on a bottom side of the holder,
• a fixing element arranged on a top side of the holder opposite to the bottom side and configured to receive the light conductor rod, and
• a cut out arranged in a portion of the fixing element wherein light emitted by the LED arranged on the bottom side of the holder radiates through the cut out to the light conductor rod arranged on the top side of the holder,
• wherein the light conductor rod includes an essentially circumferential annular protrusion arranged in a radial plane and integrally provided in one piece with or bonded to the light conductor rod,
• wherein the light conductor rod is fixed in the fixing element of the holder by the essentially circumferential annular protrusion by positive form locking,
• wherein the essentially circumferential annular protrusion is an essentially circumferential flange arranged at an end of the light conductor rod proximal to the light entry surface of the light conductor rod,
• wherein the fixing element of the holder is a hollow cylinder with a cylinder wall that includes an inner circumferential recess configured as a ring groove section or a ring groove in a radial plane,
• wherein the circumferential protrusion of the light conductor rod is seated in the ring groove section or the ring groove fixed by positive form locking,
• wherein the ring groove section or the ring groove is formed at an end of the cylinder wall that is proximal to the holder,
• wherein the cylinder wall of the fixing element is circumferentially closed at an end that is distal from the holder,
• wherein the light conductor rod is inserted in a light exit direction through the cutout into the fixing element;
• wherein an interlocking tongue is cut out of the cylindrical wall,
• wherein a free end of the interlocking tongue proximal to the circuit board flexes out radially in a spring elastic manner and interlocks at the flange of the light conductor rod, and
• wherein a spacer is arranged between the circuit board and the light conductor rod preventing a direct contact between the light conductor rod and the circuit board and/or compensating fabrication tolerances and/or providing fixation of the light conductor rod in in the fixing element in an axial direction of the light conductor rod.
