Abstract
A warming device having a base plate on which is positioned a heat source. A plurality of carrier struts are pivotally mounted with respect to the base plate and are circumferentially arranged and each have a part surface. The part surfaces together form a standing surface. On the carrier struts are arranged lugs which each has an eccentric platelet and a lug pin. An actuation element, such as an annular disk, has radial slots into which the lug pins engage. By rotating the actuation element all carrier struts can be pivoted with the part surfaces to vary a size of the standing surface.

In a warming device (1) having a base plate (2) onto which a heat source (3) can be placed, a plurality of carrier struts (4) forming a standing surface (5), the improvement comprising:
- the base plate (2) having a plurality of circumferentially arranged bearing bores (7), the carrier struts (4) rotatably mounted in the bearing bores (7), the standing surface (5) formed by a plurality of wire sections (6) each connected to a corresponding carrier strut (4) of the carrier struts (4), and pivoting the wire sections (6) varies a diameter of the standing surface (5), a plurality of lugs (8), each of the lugs (8) having a platelet (9) fixed to the corresponding carrier strut (4) and a lug pin (10) attached to the platelet (9), an actuation element (11) having a plurality of radial guide slots (12), and the lug pin (10) engaged within one of the radial guide slots (12).
