MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617098703 A) filed by Kanthal Ab on August 14, 2026, for Heating Element Furnace And Method.

Inventor includes Lewin, Thomas.

The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.

Abstract: A heating element 2 comprises a plurality of resistive members 16 extending in a longitudinal direction and an assemblage of electrically conductive components. At least some of the resistive members are connected in series and are arranged to be connected to an electric power source via two connectors 8 for electric power. The assemblage of electrically conductive components comprises a contact element 4 and a resistor 6, wherein the resistor is connected in series with the contact element and with one of the two connectors 8 for electric power. The contact element 4 is arranged at an end portion 13 of the heating element 2 for the contact element 4 to be contacted by an overly elongated resistive member 16' of the plurality of resistive members. This configuration allows for indication of overly elongated resistive members 16', preventing short circuits and potential damage.
