Abstract:
A food processing appliance (1) has a muffle interior (M) surrounded by a muffle (2; 32) and a light generating device (3) arranged outside the muffle (2; 32) for radiating light (L) into the muffle interior (M) through a Opening (16; 33) in the muffle (2; 32), wherein in the muffle interior (M) a light distribution element (18; 58) for distributing light (L) that can be radiated through the opening (16; 33), is arranged and between the light generating device (3) and the light distribution element (18; 58) there is a gap (S). The invention can be applied particularly advantageously to cooking appliances with an oven functionality and/or with a microwave functionality.
Abstract:
In one aspect, a device has a controller and a fascia assembly, with a fascia, and a printed circuit board (PCB) mounted to the fascia. The PCB has a plurality of holes, and a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), wherein one LED is mounted adjacent to each hole. The device also includes a wiring harness coupling the controller to the PCB wherein the LEDs may be energized according to signals received from the controller; and a console adjacent the PCB. The console has a plurality of light reflecting cups arranged therein so that each light reflecting cup covers an LED and the adjacent hole to reflect light from the LEDs through the holes so that the light is visible through the fascia assembly.

Abstract:
An appliance comprising an appliance housing with an access opening, a closure element that selectively covers the access opening, a handle recess formed in the closure element, a human-machine interface (HMI), an HMI housing, and at least one light source. The light source is configured to provide light into the handle recess. The illumination from the light source may be used to light the handle recess.
Abstract:
A cooking device is provided with a casing, a heating compartment (102) provided within the casing and having an opening on the front face side of the heating compartment, a door for opening and closing the opening of the heating compartment (102), a lamp (104) for lighting the inside of the heating compartment (102), and a steel plate (134) mounted indirectly to the heating compartment (102). The lamp (104) is mounted to the free end section of the steel plate (134).
Abstract:
A lighting device for illuminating the inside of a baking oven containing an oven muffle and a front flap or door including a viewing window. The lighting device having a light beam path inside of the front flap and at least one mirror arranged in the front flap for distributing light from the lighting device light beam path into the oven muffle.
Abstract:
A cooking device including a cooking area, a door for closing the cooking area and a lighting system for lighting the cooking area. The lighting system includes a light source and at least one reflector arranged in the internal space of the door, which reflects light from the light source into the cooking area. In order to reduce mechanical strain applied to the light source, it is arranged outside the door and emits light towards the reflector inside the door to be reflected into the cooking area.
Abstract:
An oven light including an attachment sleeve which is attachable in a recess of a cooking cavity wall; a light permeable cover which closes the recess of the cooking cavity wall; an illuminant which is arranged behind the light permeable cover and whose emitted light is used for illuminating the cooking cavity, wherein the illuminant is formed by at least one LED which emits light in a light cone (K), wherein the LED is arranged on a cooling element which dissipates operating heat of the LED, wherein a heat barrier is arranged between the cover and the LED and protects the LED from a cooking temperature, wherein the light cone penetrates an arrangement plane of the heat barrier, characterized in that the heat barrier includes at least one in particular light permeable heat shield with an opening through which light of the LED propagates in a direction towards the cover.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an article having at least one luminous area, particularly for display purposes, particularly a white area, said article comprising at least one glass-ceramic substrate having a light transmission from 0.8% to 40% and an optical transmission of at least 0.10, at least at a wavelength within the range from 420 to 780 nm, at least one light source, particularly a light-emitting diode, having an emission peak at a wavelength between 430 and 490 nm, and at least one luminescent compound emitting in the area of the CIExyY (1931) three-color diagram delimited by the following coordinates (x, y): x0.26580.20000.30000.42290.2658 y0.72430.39500.34050.57560.7243 so as to form at least one luminous area, particularly a white area, in particular for display purposes, in at least one area of the plate.
Abstract:
A luminaire for installation in an electrical household appliance, e.g. a washing machine, includes, in one embodiment, two light-emitting diodes mounted on a circuit board, an elongated luminaire housing having a light exit area, which is formed by a light-permeable piece of the housing wall, in an area of a first longitudinal end of the luminaire housing, and also a light-conducting body having a light-conducting tube which extends inside the luminaire housing and which conducts, towards the light exit area, light which is given off by the light-emitting diodes. In one embodiment, a metalizing layer provided on the inner peripheral face of the light-conducting tube rests, in heat-transmitting contact with one or more conductive traces, on the upper side of the circuit board. In addition to its light-conducting function, the light-conducting tube thus fulfils a function for discharging heat from the circuit board.
