Abstract
An induction heating device includes: a rotor having a rotation shaft; a heating part disposed to be opposed to the rotor at a distance; a magnetic flux generating part provided at the rotor to generate magnetic flux for the heating part; a magnetic flux guide part provided on an opposed surface side of the heating part that is opposed to the magnetic flux generating part to guide the magnetic flux from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part; and a flow passage provided in the heating part to allow a heating medium to circulate. The magnetic flux guide part includes magnetic substance parts. The magnetic flux guide part has a structure in which the magnetic substance parts and the insulator parts extend along a direction from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part and are alternately layered along a circumferential direction of the heating part.
