Abstract
An induction heating inductor and perforated susceptor are formed as an integral unit to provide a low cost, physically stable, efficient, and easily cleaned unit.
Claims13
An integral inductor-susceptor for heating electrically nonconductive materials that includes the following elements:
- a perforated susceptor having an electrically insulating coating;
- an inductor coil integrally bonded to the electrically insulated coating surface;
- a means of presenting the electrically nonconductive materials to a surface of the integral inductor-susceptor;
- and
- a high frequency power supply to power the inductor coil.
2 more elements
A method of heating electrically nonconductive materials comprising the steps of:
- positioning said electrically nonconductive materials to contact a surface of a perforated integral inductor-susceptor;
- energizing said perforated integral inductor-susceptor with a high frequency power supply;
- and
- inductively coupling energy from the inductor to the susceptor to heat the susceptor.
