Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a heating device having an ignition device not required any replacement of a storage battery and an electrical charging or the like. CONSTITUTION:As a switch 16 is closed, an electrical current is flowed from a storage battery 15 to a heater 14, the heater 14 generates heat and then kerosene is ignited at a combustion part 11. While kerosene is being ignited at the combustion part 11, a thermal electrical generating element 17 adjacent to the combustion part 11 increases its temperature with heat from the combustion part 11 so as to produce a thermal electromotive force. This thermal electromotive force is converted into a predetermined voltage by a DC-DC conveter circuit 18, the voltage is applied and the storage battery 15 is electrically charged.
