Abstract
This specification discloses an electrically heated container, container jacket and method of making same. The container and jacket each include at least three layers of fiber glass mat having resistance heating elements disposed between the first and second mats and a heat dissipating metallic sheet between second and third mats. The mats are separately impregnated with thermosetting polyester resin and cured together to form a rigid, fluid impervious laminated structure.
Claims5
A container heating jacket comprising:
- a. a cylindrical wall structure defined by at least two laminated fiber glass mats bonded together by a thermosetting plastic;
- b. a resistance heating element placed between said mats and adapted for connection to a power source for generating heat;
- and
- c. said wall structure being cut along a longitudinal axis to permit the jacket to be flexed and placed over a container having substantially the same dimensions as the jacket in its normal replaced condition, said wall structure having a memory for elastically holding itself to said container.

A container heating jacket comprising:
- a. a relatively rigid cylindrical wall structure formed of two layers of fiber glass bonded together by a thermosetting plastic;
- b. a resistance heating element encapsulated between said mats and adapted for connection to a power source for generating heat;
- and
- c. a cut along a longitudinal axis to permit the jacket to be flexed and placed over a container, the rigidity and memory of said fiber glass causing said wall structure to contract to its normal diameter and to elastically hold said structure about a container.
