Abstract
The transverse flux induction heating device is allows an alternating magnetic field to intersect the sheet face of a conductive sheet which is conveyed in one direction, thereby inductively heating the conductive sheet. The transverse flux induction heating device includes a heating coil disposed such that a coil face faces the sheet face of the conductive sheet; a core around which the heating coil is coiled; a shielding plate formed of a conductor and disposed between the core and a side end portion in the direction perpendicular to a conveyance direction of the conductive sheet; and a non-conductive soft magnetic material which is attached to the shielding plate, wherein the shielding plate is interposed between the core and the non-conductive soft magnetic material.
