Induction coil for an induction heating appliance

The present invention relates to an induction coil for an induction heating appliance, in particular for an induction cooking hob. The induction coil comprises at least one base plate (10) and at least one winding arrangement (12). The winding arrangement (12) includes at least one portion of high winding concentration (18) and at least one portion of low winding concentration (20). The winding arrangement includes at least two coils (26), preferably at least three coils (26). The base plate (10) is arranged above one or more winding arrangements (12). The base plate (10) includes at least one conductive portion (14) and at least one non-conductive portion (16). At least one conductive portion (14) of the base plate (10) is arranged above at least one portion of high winding concentration (18) of the winding arrangement (12). At least one non-conductive portion (16) of the base plate (10) is arranged above at least one portion of low winding concentration (20) of the winding arrangement (12). The conductive portion (14) of the base plate (10) is made by at least one conductive material. The non-conductive portion (16) of the base plate (10) is made by at least one non-conductive material and/or formed by at least one cut-out in the base plate (10). Further, the present invention relates to an induction heating appliance. Moreover, the present invention relates to an induction cooking hob.
