Embodiment Construction

[0020]FIG. 1 illustrates a container 10 for holding a liquid. The container 10 includes an opening 12 for dispensing the liquid and a closed bottom 14. FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate a base member 20 for mounting relative to the container 10. The base member 20 includes an interior surface 22 with a circumferential surface 26 and a closed bottom 24. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the interior surface may be coated with a non-reflective material 26.

[0021]As illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, the base member 20 is adapted to be mounted relative to the closed bottom 14. As illustrated in FIG. 6, the base member 20 is spaced a predetermined distance 30 relative to the closed bottom 14 to provide an air gap therebetween. In one embodiment of the invention, the gap may be ¼ of an inch, 0.625 cm.

[0022]The base member 20 is adapted to be exposed to a heat source, such as an electric heater with a certain watt / density of heat being supplied to the plate that is mounted on the heat source. The base member 20...

Abstract

A radiant liquid heating device includes a container for holding a liquid. The container includes an opening for dispensing the fluid and a closed bottom. A base member is mounted relative to the closed bottom. The base member is spaced a predetermined distance relative to the closed bottom to provide an air gap therebetween. The base member is exposed to a heat source wherein the base member shields the bottom of the container from being in direct contact with the heat source to provide a source of radiant heat for maintaining a liquid disposed within the container at a predetermined temperature.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims priority under 35 USC 119 to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 916,434 filed on May 7, 2007 the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a radiant liquid heating container wherein a base member is mounted relative to the bottom of the container with a predetermined space providing an air gap between the container and the base for maintaining a liquid disposed within the container at a predetermined temperature.[0004]2. Description of Background Art[0005]Hithertofore, a container for maintaining a liquid at a predetermined temperature is normally exposed directly to a heat source. After the liquid is heated on the heat source for a certain period of time, the liquid in the container may be burned by the direct contact of the container relative to the heat source. This is a particular ...
