▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - The system has a housing (318) having a hollow interior with an open lower end. A first heating panel is positioned in the open lower end of the housing and including a heating layer with a conductive microfilm. A first electrical contact is connected to the conductive microfilm. The application of a voltage difference between the first electrical contact and second electrical contact causes current to flow through conductive microfilm for generating heat. The conductive microfilm includes a layer of graphene, nano-carbon fiber material, carbon silver nanomaterial mixture, or honey-comb pattern. An insulating material is positioned within the hollow interior of the housing above the first heating panel. USE - Heating system for livestock, such as swine, for use in modern agriculture to provide warmth for livestock in colder temperatures. ADVANTAGE - The piglet area is provided with a heat lamp and/or heat mat to draw the piglets away from the sow to avoid injury or death associated with crushing. The piglets are prevented from receiving efficient heating, and the center of the heating pattern is too warm, potentially subjecting piglets to overheating and burns. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a method, comprising providing a heating system having a housing and a first heating panel. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a perspective view of the heating system. 318Housing 348Handle 354Fastener 378Bracket assembly 390Hook
