Abstract: A radiant heating apparatus having a tube, a partial enclosure device and a heating wing. The heating wing has a wing proximal end that connects to the partial enclosure device's exterior surface. The heating wing also has a wing distal end that obliquely extends outwardly in relation to the partial enclosure device and toward a first direction. The heating wing, except at the wing proximal end, and the partial enclosure device's exterior surface are spaced apart so the heating wing re-directs second direction heat energy in the first direction.
Abstract: A gas fired infrared radiant heating system of improved thermal output. The present invention solves problems associated with prior art designs by providing a single gas delivery system for delivering combustible gas to two or more burner assemblies. The invention consists of a burner housing (10) with two or more burner assemblies (18), each of which can be connected to a typical radiant tube heat exchanger assembly (12). The burner housing contains a single gas delivery system including a valve (14), a single control circuit module (30), a single blower proving switch (50), and a single manifold (16) which will distribute the gas to the multiple radiant tube heat exchanger assemblies (12). In addition, in positive pressure configurations, the burner housing will also have a single air fan (38), whereas in negative pressure configurations of the heating system one or more exhaust fans may be utilized.
