IGNITING AND HEATING MECHANISM

摘要

A container with a heating function has a heat conversion apparatus and a compact ignition apparatus. The container has a simple electric circuit and cannot be incorrectly or inadvertently operated. The heat conversion apparatus, which converts electric energy into thermal energy and generates heat at high temperature, comprises a pair of electrodes sealed in an oxygen environment in an electrode container. The ignition apparatus comprises a piezoelectric element, a pressure-exerting apparatus for applying pressure to the piezoelectric element and a sensing device for sensing whether the container for containing a desired material to be heated is filled with the material to be heated. An escaping discharge device is also provided for discharging the electricity generated by the piezoelectric element when the sensing device senses that the container is not filled with the desired material to be heated. The piezoelectric element, sensing device, heat conversion apparatus and escape discharge device are mutually and electrically interconnected.
