Abstract

A radiant cooking unit comprises a heat insulating material forming a heating element carrier to which electrical heating elements are secured. It is surrounded by a ring-shaped bordering element of a heat insulating material relatively rigid in design. Both moldings are molded together by a ram. In another aspect the outer ring is divided into several ring sectors. A hoop of flat material clasps this ring-shaped bordering element on all sides, the latter being configured as a single-turn induction coil for a pot sensing system and simultaneously clamping the unit together.
