OVEN FOR PLASTIC PREFORMS WITH PARTLY TRANSPARENT RADIATOR
First Claim
1. Apparatus for heating plastic receptacles comprising:
- a transport device which transports the plastic receptacles along a predetermined transport path;
at least one heating device for heating the plastic receptacles, the heating device includingat least one radiation source which directs radiation at the plastic receptacles, andat least one first reflector element which reflects radiation emitted by the radiation source; and
a proportional reflection device which transmits radiation emitted by the radiation source with wavelengths in a first predetermined wavelength range onto the receptacle and reflects radiation with wavelengths in a second predetermined wavelength range.

Abstract
An apparatus for heating plastic receptacles includes a transport device which transports the receptacles along a predetermined transport path and at least one heating device for heating the plastic receptacles. The heating device includes at least one radiation source which directs radiation at the plastic receptacles and at least one first reflector element which reflects radiation emitted from the radiation source. The apparatus includes a proportional reflection device which transmits radiation emitted by the radiation source with wavelengths in a first predetermined wavelength range onto the receptacle and reflects radiation with wavelengths in a second predetermined wavelength range onto the radiation source.

14. Method for heating plastic receptacles comprising:
-
transporting plastic receptacles along a predetermined transport path; and heating the plastic receptacles with a first radiation source which directs radiation at the plastic receptacles, wherein the radiation emitted by the radiation source with wavelengths in a first predetermined wavelength range is directed at the receptacle and radiation emitted by the radiation source with wavelengths in a second predetermined wavelength range is reflected onto the radiation source. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
