Abstract
There is provided a heater according to an embodiment including a heat generating unit configured to generate heat by electric conduct ion; and a plurality of electrodes configured to be respectively disposed at facing side edges of the heat generating unit so as to be electrically connected to the heat generating unit and at least one side of the side edges is formed by cutting out a part thereof.
Claims10
A heater comprising:
- a heat generating unit configured to generate heat by electric conduction;
- and
- a plurality of electrodes configured to be respectively disposed at facing side edges of the heat generating unit so as to be electrically connected to the heat generating unit and at least one side of the side edges is formed by cutting out a part thereof.
A heater comprising:
- a heat generating unit configured to generate heat by electric conduction;
- one common electrode configured to be provided on one side of facing side edges of the heat generating unit so as to be electrically connected to the heat generating unit;
- and
- a plurality of electrodes configured to be disposed at the other edge of the heat generating unit facing the common electrode and are formed by cutting out a part thereof.
