Heating control and/or regulation device
First Claim
1. A heating control/regulation device using a temperature measurement device in controlling how heating elements are supplied with electricity from a power supply, comprising:
- power outputs electrically connectable to heating elements, respectively;
a power input electrically connectable to a power supply for the heating elements;
a power distribution device having an input electrically connectable to the power supply and outputs electrically connectable via branches to the power outputs, respectively, to supply the power outputs with electric power from the power supply;
switching elements respectively disposed in the branches;
a control/regulation unit configured to at least one of control and regulate a switching state of the switching elements as a function of set values for the heating power; and
an external interface configured to receive the set values,wherein the heating control/regulation device is configured to receive via at least one connection to a temperature measurement device comprising at least one sensor, actual values of temperature and to supply the control/regulation unit with the actual values of the temperature from the temperature measurement device as the set values.

Abstract
Power outputs in a heating control and/or regulation device are each electrically connectable to a heating element, especially a radiant heater. A power input is able to be connected electrically to a power supply for the heating elements. A power distribution device is connected electrically on its input side to the power input and is connected electrically on its output side via a branch to each of the power outputs to supply the power outputs with electric power from the power supply. A switching element is disposed in each of the branches or between each of the power outputs and the heating elements. A control and/or regulation unit is configured such that it controls and/or regulates the switching state of the switching elements as a function of set values. An interface receiving set values has at least one additional connection to a temperature measurement device that measures actual values of temperature. The control and/or regulation unit is configured such that it acquires the actual values of the temperature from the temperature measurement device and additionally controls and/or regulates the switching state of the switching elements as a function of these actual values of the temperature.
