Abstract

A mounting arrangement for a cooking surface is mounted in a cut-out of a work plate, such as in a kitchen range top, with the aid of a frame unit having a supporting section on which the mounting arrangement is supported. The mounting arrangement also includes functional elements which support electronic built-in elements, such as heating elements, cables or similar. The electronic built-in elements can be easily mounted with few parts by molding an assembly unit and the frame unit into a one-piece assembly having separatable areas. The assembly unit has a tub-shaped base body and the assembly unit includes a floor unit. The functional elements are at least partially molded into the assembly unit.
