ABSTRACT:
A source of electrical energy travels along with a vehicle the control elements of which are to be warmed so as to prevent or inhibit icing. The electrical energy is transformed to primarily current in a closed conductive loop. Preferably, the current is induced into the loop by a transformer. The loop comprises at least in part joint segments comprising at least portions of the vehicle's brakes and/or control linkages to be warmed. The amount of current is sufficient in relation to the inherent resistivity of the segments to cause the generation of heat within the segments. Preferably the current is an alternating current of a frequency which causes a majority of the current to travel through the segments on, at, or near the skin of the segments in order to cause the generation of heat to be primarily around the skin of the segments.
