HEATING UNIT FOR WARMING PALLETS

摘要

A heating unit for use in heating pallets. The heating unit includes side modules and a lid module. Modules include cover layers. Modules may include a pliable electrical heating element is disposed between the first and the second cover layers and configured to convert electrical energy to heat energy and to distribute the heat energy. The pliable electrical heating element includes a heat generating element for converting electrical current to heat energy and a heat spreading element comprising carbon thermally coupled to the heat generating element. Modules may further include a thermal insulation layer. Modules may include a receiving power connector electrically connected to the heat generating element. Modules may include a seam formed in a fashion that facilitates folding of the modules in a fashion which allows support members to support a module on an edge of the module.
