C. PAN DOLFO ELECTRIC HEATER Fi ed Nov. s. 1926 Patented Apr. 17, 1928.
CARMELO PANDOLFO, or MONTEVIDEO, URUGUAY.
ELECTRIC HEATER.
Application filed November 3, 1926. Serial No. 146,008.
This invention relates to certain improvements in electric heaters and essentially has for its object a parabolioheater with an electric heat source arranged at the focus of the said reflector.
Another object of the invention is to form the heater entirely of an electric non-conducting material, with the exception of the electric resistance.
A further object of the invention is to provide an electric heater wherein the electric resistance is entirely and completely protected from contact with any cooking utensils or similar objects which may have been placed thereon.
The heater which forms the subject of this invention essentially consists of a parabolic reflector, made of an electrically nonconducting and heat resisting material. The parabolic part of the heater is provided with a coating or enamel of oxide of lead or of silver nitrate to give the same a reflector or mirror-like surface.
The electric resistance is arranged around a truncated cone placed at the focus of the reflector, with its larger base directed upwardly.
The truncated cone is heated to a red heat by the resistance and its heat is radiated against the mirror which reflects-the same in an upward direction.
-The reflector and the cone are preferably constructed of a mixture of ordinary and refractory earth in equal parts for the reflector, and the same mixtureis used for the truncated cone, with an addition of ordinary black earth powder inequal parts also.
The bodies molded with this material are subjected, in a suitable furnace, to a temperature of 800 C., whereby a suitable degree of hardness and mechanical strength will be imparted thereto.
This material offers the advantage of being solid, and of low cost (owing to its several components being readily obtainable). It is electrically non-conducting and resists shocks or jars as well as the changes of temperature caused by the spilling of cold liquids thereon and, above all, it has the property of radiating almost exclusively red rays when brought to a condition of incandescence; owing to the heat produced by the electric resistance arranged around the truncated cone, being reflected by the oxide of lead coating of the mirror laced in the parabolic part of the heater. wing to this of such a shape that it will also serve as the main body part or support, of the heater. If desired, it may be provided with handles or ears for conveying purposes.
This invent-ion also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter'fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is an elevation, with parts broken away, of the invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged vertical sectional view through the invention.
The main body part 1 of the apparatus which constitutes its support and the mirror, is preferably made of the particular earth, formed in accordance with the formula above set forth, but the same may also be constructed of any other suitable earth or other known product.
The body part is formed at its center with the parabolic part 2, the inner surface of which is coated toform a mirror and the mouth of which extends inan upward direction. The surface of the mirror is formed of an enamel of oxide of lead or is provided with a coating of silver nitrate or other suitable material adapted to constitute a reflecting surface withstanding a high temperature.
Two ears 3 are formed on the part 1, which hold handles 4 for conveying purposes.-
The resistance 5 or wire having a high degree of electric resistance (nichrome or other suitable: metal) is wound, after the manner of a spring, around a truncated cone 6 constructed of the same earth as the main body part, with the addition of a part of ordinary black earth powder. The said truncated cone is placed at the center of the mirror, with its smaller base bearing on the bottom of the same. Between the cone and the said" bottom a washer 7 of asbestos is interposed, the parts being secured together by means of two screws 8 with their corresponding nuts; said screws form at the same time the terminals of the electric leads '9 and of the ends of the resistance.
The said resistance is arranged within a helicoidal groove 10 formed on the outer surface of the truncated cone. The upper larger base of the cone is provided with a flange 11. g
The .truncated cone is formed with a hollow space inside and its top is provided with a removable cover 12 having the holes 13 therein toallow the circulation of the air. Finally, at the bottom of the mirror are provided the orifices 14 for the discharge of any liquid that may have fallen into the apparatus.
The operat on of the apparatus is as follows t- The heat generated in the resistance raises the temperature of the truncated cone to, a
,condition of incandescence, emitting heat that is reflected by the mirror in an upward direction in the form of red rays, owing to the. characteristics of the oxide of .lead enamel. Thus an object placed on the top part'of the device will be heated.
The heat 'not used is practically nil, as owing to the reflecting surface of the mirror, the rays are directed toward the opening andl the body part is kept comparatively coo It will'also beunderstood that there is no danger of one coming into contact with the current, as besides the resistance, there are no metallic or conducting parts in the apparatus. The pan or other object placed onthe heater can in no way come into contact. with the resistance, 'so'that no short circuits nor deterioration of the ap aratus may take place as regards the reslstance, thus avoidlng all death dealing accidents by electrocution. The material which forms the cone will not crack or become moistened and the liquid which'falls into the mirror will simply be discharged by the orifices at the bottom, without deteriorating the resistance.
- What I claim is I i v 1; An electric heater of the class described comprising a body having a substantially cylindrical outer part and a bowl-shaped inner part, the two parts being formed integral and of'non-conducting material, an inverted truncated cone in the bowl-shaped part and fastened to the bottom of the same,
said cone being of hollow construction and formed ofnon-conducting material, a heating coil connected with the exterior of the cone and a flange at" the upper end of the cone for protectin the coil from material dropping into the owl-shaped part of the body.
