A device that is a handheld circular heating element for use in the construction industry is described. Specifically the device is useful for applying heat uniformly to a two-piece membrane for separation of the outer layer to allow the inner layer to be exposed. The device includes a handle, an electrical supply, an on/off switch and a heating element. The device uses electricity to heat the heat-emitting burner of the heating element, which is then placed next to the membrane. As the membrane is warmed, the two layers of the membrane are able to be separated, which exposes the inner membrane.

The second heating element has a resistance that varies with temperature according to a second-heating-element-temperature-dependent resistivity rate.

A heating apparatus, in particular for recreational vehicles like campers or caravans, comprises a heating unit and two separate heat exchanging units, which are coupled to the heating unit in parallel with each other. The heating unit comprises one burner for each heat exchanging unit, and at least one combustion air fan unit configured to supply the burners with combustion air. The burners are configured to burn fuel gas or liquid further supplied to each of the burners together with the combustion air received from the combustion air fan unit to get hot exhaust gasses. The heat exchanging units and are configured to receive the exhaust gasses from the burners, and to transfer heat from the exhaust gasses to fluids to be heated, provided within the heat exchanging units. The heat exchanging units are positioned in parallel with each other side by side on one side of the heating unit. Furthermore, the present invention refers to a recreational vehicle with such a heating apparatus.

A flameless industrial air heater comprising: a combustion engine having a drive shaft and a combustion exhaust gas conduit to direct hot exhaust gases away from the engine; a mixing chamber having an air inlet and being in fluid communication with the exhaust gas conduit to mix the hot exhaust gasses with air flowing into the mixing chamber to produce a warmed air stream; and a compressor connected to the drive shaft and being driven thereby, the compressor being downstream of the mixing chamber to receive the warmed air stream and to pressurize the warmed air stream for delivery to applications requiring heating.

A heat-generating element for an electric heating device includes a heating element casing which comprises a casing element formed from a ceramic material and a casing mating element formed from a ceramic material. The two casing elements bear against each other in a sealing manner and enclose, in a sealing manner between each other, a PTC element and conductor tracks. The conductor tracks bear, in an electrically conductive manner, against the PTC element and are assigned different polarities for energizing the PTC element. The heating element casing carries contact strips connected in an electrically conductive manner to the associated conductor tracks. At least one of the conductor tracks is formed by an electrically conductive element which is provided with through holes and which, in a height direction of the conductor track, comprises discrete points of support that bear against the PTC element and one of casing element and casing mating element.

The heat generating element has the contact strips electrically connected to the PTC element projecting over itself. A partition wall separates the circulation chamber from a connection chamber of the heater casing. The contact strips of the PTC heating element protrude through the partition wall and are exposed and electrically connected.

A heating device for heating a gas stream is proposed, the heating device comprising two electric connection elements (43, 44) for being connected to a power source and at least one heating plate unit (39A, 39B, 39C, 39D, 39E) having an inlet side and an outlet side, which comprises a plurality of heating plate strips (45, 46) which are in the gas stream and each have a first end area and a second end area, adjacent heating plate strips (45, 46) being connected to each other in the first end areas and the second end areas each via a conductive spacer structure (47).

A combination cooling and heating fan structure includes an electronic device for controlling a driving device to drive a fan blade assembly to rotate within a first rotational speed range and thereby cause cold convection when the driving device is started alone. The electronic device includes a limiting module for limiting the driving device to rotate within a second rotational speed range, which is smaller than the first rotational speed range, when the driving device and a heating device are started at the same time. That is, when the driving device and the heating device are started simultaneously, the limiting module limits the driving device to rotate within the second rotational speed range for the fan blade assembly to blow hot air through an indoor environment and cause heat convection, which increases the temperature of the indoor environment while preventing quick loss of thermal energy during the heat convection.
