CONNECTING ELEMENT FOR CONNECTING AN INDUCTION COIL TO A COIL CARRIER OF AN INDUCTION COOKING HOB

The present invention relates to a connecting element (10) for connecting an induction coil (24) to a coil carrier (26) of an induction cooking hob. The connecting element (10) is made of an elastic material and formed as a single-piece part. The connecting element (10) includes a first snap-fit portion (12) connectable to a cut-out of the induction coil (24), so that the snap-fit portion (12) and the cut-out form a snap-in mechanism. The connecting element (10) includes a spring portion (14) arrangeable between the induction coil (24) and the coil carrier (26), so that the spring portion (14) provides a distance between the induction coil (24) and the coil carrier (26). The connecting element (10) includes at least one groove (16) enclosing at least partially the connecting element (10). The groove (16) is engageable with the cut-out of the induction coil (24). The connecting element (10) includes a second snap-fit portion (18) extending opposite to the first snap-fit portion (12). The second snap-fit portion (18) is connectable to a cut-out (32) of the coil carrier (26), so that the second snap-fit portion (18) and the cut-out (32) form a snap-in mechanism.
