Apparatus and method for non-contact detection and inductive heating of heat retentive food server warming plates |
摘要 |
The present invention relates generally to inductive heating, and more particularly to an apparatus and method for non-contact detection and inductive heating of heat retentive food server warming plates used in institutional food service. The invention provides a non-contact detection and control circuit for an inductive heating apparatus for heating an inductively reactive heat radiating element built into a warming plate. The warming plate employed by the invention has an integral inductively reactive heat radiating element that is brought to a desired heating temperature such as 450 DEG F. In a preferred embodiment, the apparatus is configured like a conventional industrial cook stove and surface. Underneath the surface is a magnetic inductive coil controlled by the invention for inductively heating a reactive ferromagnetic heat radiating element that is placed on the surface.
