Abstract
The present invention provides a device which can uniformize heat distribution by using an existing heater mat for repairing or joining members. A heat dispersion device includes a bag with a fluid sealed inside, and is disposed on a second surface of a heater mat which has a first surface to be directed toward an object to be heated and the second surface opposite to the first surface. The fluid inside the bag is preferably heated with a heat source.
Claims20
A heating apparatus for heating an object that comprises:
- a heater mat;
- a heat dispersion device comprising a bag with a fluid sealed inside of the bag;
- an internal heat source inside the bag which heats the fluid;
- and
- a flow forcing part which forces the fluid to flow,
- wherein the heat dispersion device is disposed on a surface of the heater mat.
A heating apparatus for heating an object that comprises:
- a heater mat;
- a heat dispersion device comprising a bag with a fluid sealed inside of the bag;
- and
