Mobile Phone Case with Heating Element

摘要

A mobile phone case that is characterized by an on-board electrical heating element which is exposed through the mechanical action of a retractable cover. The heating element utilizes resistive heating by inducing electrical current through a small coil housed on the back of the phone case. The heating coil is powered by an internal battery and when activated, is used to ignite common materials normally accomplished by the use of a traditional butane lighter. The cover that shields the element is simultaneously used to activate a switch on an internal circuit to allow power to be sent to the heating coil and heat to a temperature high enough for wick-lick and paper materials to ignite. The cover and phone case material is designed with materials to prevent burning of the case and so heat is only transferred to the intended object.
