| Description/Abstract | A space heating apparatus is described for mounting on a wall surface of a room to be heated, the apparatus comprising: a housing including a substantially flat rear wall adapted for mounting to the wall surface.^ A front wall adjacent the rear wall, the front wall and the real wall conjointly defining a space between through which the air passes.^ The front wall has a lower portion extending upwardly from the bottom of the housing a solid uninterrupted mid portion devoid of any openings and a portion extending upwardly; an inlet means at the lower end of the housing admits and directs the air into the space; air outlet means at the upper end of the housing where heated air leaves the space and passes from the housing: a solid, uninterrupted metal plate having a first flat side and a second flat side; an electrically insulating plastic layer formed only on the first flat side of the metal plate; the metal plate being mounted in the space so as to partition the space into two convecting channels and having an upper portion extending above the mid portion of the front wall; the plastic layer and the rear wall conjointly defining one of the convecting channels for communicating with a portion of the air outlet means and for conducting a portion of the incoming air admitted to the space; the second flat side and the front wall with the solid uninterrupted mid portion conjointly defining the other one of the convecting channels; resistance heating means embedded in and throughout the plastic layer for heating the air rising in both of the convecting channels and for radiating heat from the second flat side of the plate; and the remainder of the outlet means being formed in the upper portion of the front wall so as to be disposed laterally of the upper portion of the metal plate. |
