Patent number: 11639225Abstract: A solid-state radio frequency (SSRF) water heating apparatus is disclosed. In embodiments, the SSRF water heater includes a water tank, SSRF generator array and RF sensors enclosed within an RF-shielded cage. The SSRF array synthesizes RF signals in the microwave range and transmits the RF energy through the water tank, exciting and heating the water molecules without direct contact. The RF sensors at the opposite end of the tank sense residual RF energy not absorbed by the water. Control processors regulate the generation and transmission of the RF energy based on the sensed residual energy. The heated water and/or generated steam is piped to hot water dispensers, beverage makers, or steam ovens.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2020Date of Patent: May 2, 2023Assignee: Koninklifke Fabriek Inventum B.V.Inventors: Arnau Castillo Gonzalez, Hans Huijsing
