Abstract
The invention relates to a heating device (1), particularly for heating and/or maintaining the temperature of a skin surface with a depth effect on partial areas of a human body. The latter has at least one heat transfer element (2) comprising a heating element (3) and an energy supply device connected by an energy transfer device to the heat transfer element (2), and preferably a control and/or switching device (9). In order to supply the heating element (3) with energy, an oscillating switch circuit is located in the control and/or switching device (9) in order to generate constant pulse signals. Following this is an adjustable pulse modulation switching circuit for altering the pulse signals for controlling a power end stage.
