<p>#CMT# #/CMT# The device (11) has an operating element (14) arranged on an operating panel (12), and a controller (32) arranged behind the panel. The operating element is mounted in a recess (17) that is arranged behind the panel. A touch switch (36) is connected with the controller. A retracting device (18) retracts the operating element by pressing in the recess. The retracting device retracts a rotary locking handle (15) in a retractable-position. The touch switch is deactivated by the controller in the retractable position. A telescopic pipe (20) is made of plastic. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method for operating an operating device. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Retractable operating device for an electrical device i.e. electrical cooker. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The touch switch is deactivated by the controller in the retractable position, thus ensuring that the operating device is versatile and practical in application, and preventing insulation problems of the operating device, and fulfilling safety regulations of the operating device. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic side sectional view of an operating device with a retracting device for an operating element and a touch switch at a front side of an operating element. 11 : Retractable operating device 12 : Operating panel 14 : Operating element 15 : Rotary locking handle 17 : Recess 18 : Retracting device 20 : Telescopic pipe 32 : Controller 36 : Touch switch.</p> |
