Pot detection sensor for an induction hob, and induction hob

Abstract

A pot detection sensor for an induction hob has an air-core coil with at least two turns and has a carrier for the air-core coil. A length of the air-core coil can be at least five times, advantageously ten times, a width of the air-core coil. Diffusor means can be arranged, as a housing, over at least one lighting means for the purpose of equalizing a lighting effect of the one lighting means, wherein a single and continuous diffusor means is provided for all of the lighting means on a carrier. The diffusor means can form a housing over the at least one lighting means and also around the at least one lighting means. The air-core coil is advantageously wound around this housing.
