Abstract
An induction-heating device for heating and or melting a heat affected product zone of shaving or cosmetic products stored in a product container which consists of a layer of said product heated by an electrically conductive metallic target member having through-passages overlying said top product surface and energized by an induction coil into which an electromagnetic field is generated by electronic circuitry for a predetermined time period into said product container, thereby permitting said heated and or melted product to flow through said through-passages onto said top surface of said target member to be collected by a user for shaving or cosmetic purposes.
Claims78
An induction-heating device adapted to heat shaving or cosmetic products comprising:
- a housing defining a non-electrically conductive induction housing;
- a non-electrically conductive product container for holding the product, said product container being removably received in said induction housing;
- an induction coil adjacent to said induction housing for generating an electromagnetic field into said product container;
- an electrically conductive target member in said product container;
- and
- an electromagnetic field activator mounted in said housing and connected to said induction coil, said target member being heated during a heating cycle for a predetermined time period in response to said electromagnetic field from said induction coil to heat and or melt the product.
An induction-heating device adapted to heat products for shaving or cosmetic purposes comprising:
- a housing defining a non-electrically conductive induction housing;
- a non-electrically conductive product container for holding shaving or cosmetic products, said product container comprising a cylindrical body, a material reservoir, a material heat exchanger cavity housing the target member, a pumping mechanism further comprising a diaphragm and check valve, and an induction cavity further comprising a male cap having a first diameter, female receiving cap having a second diameter, inlet aperture, at least one cavity, at least one dividing wall, a conduit and an outlet aperture with said non-electrically conductive product container removably received in said induction housing, a shaving or cosmetic product stored in said product container comprising a material heat exchanger;
- an induction coil adjacent to the induction housing for generating an electromagnetic field into said product container;
- an electrically conductive metallic target member in said product container;
- an electromagnetic field activator mounted in said housing and connected to said induction coil, said target member being heated during a heating cycle for a predetermined time period in response to said electromagnetic field from said induction coil to heat and or melt the product.
