[0031] In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the technical solutions provided by the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the technical solutions provided by the present invention can be implemented without one or more of these details.
[0032] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should also be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of the features, wholes, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof.
[0033] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in a variety of different forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present invention thorough and complete, and to fully convey the concept of these exemplary embodiments to those of ordinary skill in the art.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present application proposes an ice-breaking heater, including: a shell 110; a heating element 120, wherein the heating element 120 is arranged in the shell 110; a guide hole 130, wherein the guide hole 130 passes through the shell 110; a cable 140, wherein the cable 140 passes through the shell 110 and is connected to the heating element 120; and an epoxy resin filling layer 150, wherein the epoxy resin filling layer 150 is filled on the outside of the cable 140.
[0035] The ice-breaking heater provided in the embodiment of the present application can be placed in a livestock drinking trough during use, and then the heating element 120 is powered on through the cable 140, and the heating element 120 generates heat energy and transmits it to the housing 110, and the housing 110 heats the water, and the heated water can flow through the guide hole 130, thereby improving the heating efficiency, thereby ensuring drinking water for livestock in severe cold areas.
[0036] By setting the epoxy resin filling layer 150, the wiring area of the heating element 120 is encapsulated into an elliptical cylinder with epoxy resin, and the insulating heat shrink tube 200 is covered on the outside to be waterproof and insulated, which can increase the service life and make the ice-breaking heater safer to take and put.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, there are multiple flow guide holes 130, and the inner wall of the flow guide hole 130 is in a truncated cone shape.
[0038] In this technical solution, a style of the guide hole 130 is further provided. There are multiple guide holes 130, and the inner wall of the guide hole 130 is in a cone shape. When the heating element 120 is working in water, the water with higher temperature rises faster along the cone hole to form a water flow, which is conducive to the uniform increase of water temperature in the area.
[0039] The inner wall of the guide hole 130 is truncated cone-shaped. The conical guide hole 130 is designed using the principle of Bernoulli fluid mechanics, which can generate kinetic potential energy when heating the fluid, thereby improving the heating efficiency and the temperature uniformity of the liquid. The bottom is a large hole, which converts thermal energy into kinetic energy after heating, thereby allowing the water or the small hole above the fluid to achieve an acceleration process. Fluid movement can be achieved in static heating of the fluid, thereby achieving uniformity of heating temperature and heating efficiency. This type of traditional heater only has static mode heating, while the ice-breaking heater provided in the embodiment of the present application puts the water in a flowing state, and heats the rising water flow through the guide hole 130. When the water flows through the small hole, the rising speed is increased, thereby accelerating the heat convection speed.
[0040] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the housing 110 is made of aluminum.
[0041] In this technical solution, the material of the shell 110 is further provided. The shell 110 is made of aluminum and covers the heating element, thereby protecting the heating element 120 , ensuring the thermal conductivity, and increasing the heat transfer area of the heating element 120 .
[0042] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the ice-breaking heater further includes: a temperature sensor, which is disposed in the housing 110 ; and a temperature limit switch 160 , which is connected to the temperature sensor and the heating element 120 .
[0043] In this technical solution, the heating temperature of the ice-breaking heater can be detected by setting a temperature sensor and a temperature limit switch 160. The heating temperature of the ice-breaking heater can be easily controlled by the temperature limit switch 160. When the set temperature is reached, the power supply of the heating element 120 can be disconnected, which is more energy-saving and prevents the water temperature from being too high.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the ice-breaking heater further includes: a safety switch 170, and the safety switch 170 is connected to the heating element 120. In this way, when the temperature is too high, a fuse protection can be performed to prevent livestock from being injured.
[0045] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, the ice-breaking heater further includes: a gland 180, wherein the gland 180 is arranged at the end of the housing 110, and the cable 140 passes through the gland 180. Such an arrangement can protect the cable.
[0046] In this technical solution, a cable gland 180 is added to the outlet position to protect the cable and improve the service life and safety of the product.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a feasible implementation manner, a grounding connector 190 is connected to the heating element 120, and one end of the grounding connector 190 extends out of the housing 110. Such an arrangement can prevent leakage.
