Claims14
A plate with integrated heating system comprising
- a plate, a pedestal, and a control circuit;
- wherein the plate mounts on the pedestal;
- wherein the control circuit is divided between the plate and the control circuit;
- wherein the control circuit comprises a logic member, a communication module, a heating element, and a wireless power circuit;
- wherein the wireless power circuit comprises an energy broadcast circuit and an induction circuit;
- wherein the wireless power circuit:
- a) draws ac electrical energy from the national electric grid;
