Heating apparatus for cooking food, especially a hot plate
First Claim
1. Heating apparatus for cooking foods comprising at least one radiation source directed at a cook site for accommodating food to be cooked or a container for food to be cooked, said source emitting optical radiation with a visible content and an infrared content, a filter with a support body made of a material substantially transparent to the radiation, said filter being disposed between the radiation source and the cook site and provided with an interference layer system which reflects the visible content of the radiation at least predominantly to the radiation source and passes the infrared content of the radiation at least predominantly to the cook site, wherein the interference layer system comprises an alternating series of layers of silicon (H) and silicon dioxide (N) whose physical layer thicknesses in the case of the silicon is between 20 and 50 nm, and in the case of the SiO2 between 80 and 110 nm.

Abstract
Heating apparatus which emits optical radiation having a visible content and an infrared content, for cooking foods by means of at least one radiation source (2) directed at a cook site for accommodating foods to be cooked or a container for foods to be cooked. Between the radiation source (2) and the cook site (4) there is a filter (7) having a support body (8) made of a material that is substantially permeable for all of the radiation. The support body (8) is provided with an interference layer system which reflects the visible content of the radiation at least predominantly to the radiation source and passes the infrared content of the radiation at least predominantly to the cook site. In order to achieve a simpler, firmly adherent layer build up with a small number of layers and without inner tensions, the interference layer system (9) consists of an alternating sequence of layers of silicon (H) and silicon dioxide of silicon (H) and silicon dioxide (N), whose physical layer thicknesses in the case of the silicon, at least in the predominant part of the silicon layers, are between 20 and 50 nanometers, and in the case of the SiO2 are between 80 and 110 nm, at least in the predominant part of the SiO2 layers.
