Abstract
An infrared radiant panel is formed by overlaid substrates having conductors thereon which are electrically activated to generate heat to cause infrared radiation of desired wavelengths. The conductors are arranged to cancel magnetic fields caused by current flow therethrough. A conductive shield further suppresses fields generated by the panel.
Claims18
A low EMF radiant infrared panel comprising:
- (a) a nonconductive substrate having opposite substrate surfaces;
- (b) a first infrared region formed on a surface of a nonconductive substrate to radiate infrared energy in a first range of wavelengths and a second infrared region formed on a surface of a nonconductive substrate to radiate infrared energy in a second range of wavelengths, each of the first and second infrared regions including:
- (1) a first conductor formed on a first surface of a nonconductive substrate in a selected pattern;
- (2) a second conductor formed on a second surface of a nonconductive substrate in the selected pattern, the second conductor being positioned in close adjacent relation to the first conductor and being aligned therewith;
- (3) the first and second conductors receiving levels of current required to generate heat to cause infrared radiation in a range of wavelengths associated with the respective infrared region;
- and
- (4) the first and second conductors being electrically activated in opposite polarities to cause cancellation of first components of electromagnetic fields resulting from currents flowing in the first and second conductors;
- and
- (c) a conductive electromagnetic shield layer positioned in covering relation to the first and second infrared regions to suppress second electromagnetic field components resulting from currents flowing through the first and second conductors.

A low EMF radiant infrared panel comprising:
- (a) a plurality of nonconductive substrates, each substrate having opposite substrate surfaces;
- (b) a first infrared region formed on a surface of a first nonconductive substrate to radiate infrared energy in a first range of wavelengths and a second infrared region formed on a surface of a second nonconductive substrate to radiate infrared energy in a second range of wavelengths, each of the infrared regions including:
- (1) a first conductor formed on a surface of a first nonconductive substrate in a selected pattern;
- and
- (2) a second conductor formed on a surface of a second nonconductive substrate in the selected pattern;
- (c) the substrates being joined in mutually overlaying relation to position the first conductor in closely adjacent aligned relation to the second conductor;
- (d) the first and second conductors receiving levels of current required to generate heat to cause infrared radiation in a range of wavelengths associated with the respective infrared region;
- (e) the first and second conductors being electrically activated in opposite polarities to cause cancellation of components of electromagnetic fields resulting from currents flowing in the conductors;
