Sensor assembly for determining the temperature state in an area of a heating surface

Abstract

A sensor assembly is disclosed for determining the temperature state in an area of a heating surface heated by a heat source and disposed between the heat source and the heating surface in parallel relationship to the heating surface. The sensor assembly includes a first sensor having a carrier and a temperature-dependent resistor web which is attached to the carrier and confronts the heating surface and which is electrically contacted at a contact zone outside a temperature-measuring zone, and a second sensor having a carrier and a temperature-dependent resistor web which is attached to the carrier and electrically contacted at a contact zone outside the temperature-measuring zone and which confronts the heat source.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
