Abstract
An improved portable ice melting device comprises an extendable handle assembly for adjustable length and a melting assembly. The handle assembly features a pivot adaptor, enabling the melting assembly to rotate and lock at multiple angles for versatile use on various surfaces. The melting assembly includes an open-ended metallic housing lined with an insulating material and an electrical wire heating element. A power cord connects the heating element to a portable power source, directing thermal energy through the housing's open end to melt ice. This design enhances portability, versatility across diverse surfaces, and efficiency for non-mechanical ice removal.
Claims20
An ice melting device, comprising:
- (a) a handle assembly;
- (b) a pivot mount assembly coupled to a distal end of the handle assembly, the pivot mount assembly defining a plurality of discrete angular orientations;
- (c) a melting assembly, comprising:
- (i) a housing having an open end and an interior;
- (ii) an insulating material disposed on an interior surface of the housing;
- (iii) a heating element for producing thermal energy situated within the interior of the housing;
- (iv) a protective grille guard positioned across the open end of the housing;
- and
- (v) a power supply cable electrically coupled to the heating element and adapted for connection to a power source;
- and
- (d) a pivot adaptor coupled to the melting assembly, the pivot adaptor being detachably engageable with the pivot mount assembly for selectively mechanically fixing an angular position of the melting assembly relative to the handle assembly at one of the plurality of discrete angular orientations.
