Abstract

A heating device comprises first and second electrodes attached to a heating plate comprising a plurality of branches each having a proximal end turned from a first longitudinal side of the heating plate and a distal end turned from a second longitudinal side of the heating plate. The branches are separated by slits each opening to at least one longitudinal end. The proximal end and/or distal end of each branch is connected to the proximal end and/or distal end of an adjacent branch. The electrodes are connected to the proximal ends of a first intermediate branch of the intermediate branches and a second intermediate branch of the intermediate branches respectively.
