HEATER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18273778 titled 'HEATER

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a heater with a base, heating bodies, terminals, and a cylindrical structure. The heating bodies include an inside heating body and outside heating bodies concentric with the base, spaced apart in the thickness direction of the base.

  • The heater includes a base with a first surface for placing a heating target and a second surface opposite to the first surface.
  • Inside heating body is located at the center of the base, while outside heating bodies are positioned outside the inside heating body.
  • Inside heating body is at the closest layer to the first surface, with outside heating bodies including a first and second outside heating body.

Potential Applications

The technology described in this patent application could be applied in various heating systems, such as industrial heaters, household heaters, and heating elements for appliances.

Problems Solved

This innovation solves the problem of achieving efficient and uniform heating across a surface by strategically placing inside and outside heating bodies in a heater design.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved heating performance, energy efficiency, and uniform heat distribution, leading to better overall heating results.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology could be commercialized in the manufacturing of heaters for residential and industrial use, as well as in the production of heating elements for various appliances.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be traditional heating elements used in heaters and appliances, which may not offer the same level of efficiency and uniform heating as the design described in the patent application.

Unanswered Questions

How does the spacing between the inside and outside heating bodies affect the overall heating performance of the heater?

The patent application does not provide specific details on how the spacing between the inside and outside heating bodies impacts the heating efficiency and performance of the heater.

What materials are used in the construction of the heating bodies in this design?

The patent application does not mention the specific materials used in the construction of the heating bodies, which could be crucial for understanding the durability and effectiveness of the heater.


Original Abstract Submitted

A heater includes a base, a plurality of heating bodies, a plurality of terminals, and a cylindrical. The base has a first surface on which a heating target is placed, and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The plurality of heating bodies include an inside heating body disposed in a region including a center of the base, and a plurality of outside heating bodies disposed outside of the inside heating body to be concentric with the base. The inside heating body and the plurality of outside heating bodies are disposed to be spaced from each other in a thickness direction of the base. The inside heating body is disposed at a first layer located closest to the first surface in the thickness direction of the base. The plurality of outside heating bodies include a first outside heating body, and a second outside heating body.
