Abstract

For an electric hotplate is provided an assembly arrangement using a bearing ring, which forms a continuous, one-piece, smooth-surface top extending from the outermost circumferential area of the hotplate body located close to the cooking surface to its outer circumference or to the mounting plate and has a relatively shallow collecting depression for liquid which has flowed over between an inner and an outer ring profile. With the hotplate or bearing ring can be associated at least one shield and at least one locking and/or centering device for position fixing purposes, so that there is a simple and positionally accurate assembly. The bearing ring can also be stop-limited towards the bottom against deformation.
