Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a thermosensitive ceramic heater and an assembly thereof, in particular to a PTC heating device with a heat-conducting aluminum tube having a main body reinforcing rib on the side and an assembly thereof. Background Art

[0002] A bracket for a PTC thermosensitive ceramic electric heater and a PTC electric heater (Publication No. CN201174784) include a mounting surface and a supporting surface. An inner concave cavity for mounting and fixing a heating element is provided on the supporting surface. A cavity for placing a connecting wire of a power supply lead-out end of the heating element extending inward is further provided at the bottom of the inner concave cavity. A wire lead-out hole is provided on the supporting surface at the bottom of the cavity. A through hole for placing a fuse is provided on a side wall of the supporting surface.

[0003] Through this technical solution, the fuse can be combined with the bracket to prevent it from being connected to the periphery of the bracket and affecting safety. However, since it is still mounted on a side wall of the supporting surface, its connecting wire will still wind around the outside of the bracket, and there is still a hidden danger that the power supply lead will loosen or fall off under the action of external force.

[0004] A PTC heater support base and a PTC heater (Publication No.: CN200920235929) include a seat body, a cover plate and a screw; the seat body and the cover plate are fixedly connected by the screw; a cavity with one open side is provided in the seat body, and a spaced upper wall and a spaced lower wall are provided in the cavity; the spaced upper wall is located between the heating element and the temperature controller of the PTC heater; the spaced lower wall is located between the heating element and the temperature fuse of the PTC heater.

[0005] Through this technical solution, the temperature controller and the temperature fuse can be installed in the bracket to solve the reliability problem of the positioning of the temperature controller and the fuse. However, since the lead wire is prone to loosen and fall off under the repeated pulling of external force, there is also a risk of short circuit and contact sparking or loosening due to poor crimping at the connection surface of the two different-polarity electrode plates and the wire group.

[0006] A PTC heater (Publication No.: 104053255A) shares one tail seat and one electrical connection seat for two or more heaters. After the temperature controller and the temperature fuse are fixed in the bare electrical connection seat, the electrical plug cavity and the electrical shielding connection seat cover are inserted. Adopting this technology can solve the positioning problem of the installation of the temperature controller and the fuse in the tail seat of the electrical connection seat, but still cannot solve the safety and reliability problems such as displacement and mutual interference between the parts inside the bracket seat body and between the power supply leads.

[0007] The above-mentioned existing technologies all have the problem that there is no effective insulation and fixation for the power connection wire of the thermosensitive ceramic heater after it is led out, which is easily affected by pulling, and at the same time, the power connection wire inside the installation bracket is also easily affected by external pulling.

[0008] In addition, whether the thermosensitive ceramic heaters for existing cabinet air conditioners are single-group or multi-group in parallel, after the power connection wires are led out, they interfere with each other and there is no effective insulation and fixation. Affected by the assembly and transportation pulling of the whole machine, safety accidents such as falling off and short circuit are extremely likely to occur.

[0009] A PTC liquid electric heater (Publication No. CN2612898Y), the power supply wire is connected to and supplies power to the electrode, and the power supply wire is connected to the outside through the power supply wire inlet of the metal shell.

[0010] Adopting this technical solution, since the power supply wire is directly connected to the electrode, the contact resistance is large, and the connection point of the power supply wire is prone to falling off under the action of external force.

[0011] A fast electric water heater heated by PTC (Publication No. CN2742335Y), the wire on the electrical control device is connected to the insert piece on the heating device.

[0012] Adopting this technical solution, at least with the help of insert pieces, plug springs and sheaths, the connection of the wire and the PTC electrode piece can be completed to ensure its safety. At the same time, the requirements for inserting the insert piece are very high. If the connection with its fitting part is not completed, the insert piece is prone to falling off from the PTC electrode piece, resulting in damage to the heater.

[0013] A PTC heating element with fastening terminals (Publication No. CN2684506Y), a buckle piece is provided on the terminal, and the buckle piece is connected to the electrode plate by stamping. Adopting this technical solution, the buckle piece is equivalent to an insert piece, and the stamping distance needs to be adjusted in real time. There will inevitably be a contact gap at the docking part of the insert piece and the plug spring. If the connection with its fitting part is not completed, the insert piece is prone to falling off from the PTC electrode piece or the docking plug spring, resulting in non-conduction of the heater. And real-time adjustment requires extra manual care, resulting in increased costs.

[0014] In addition, the prior art also has a connection scheme of stamping the connecting piece with a flanging crimping surface or a corner wrapping crimping surface and the electrode piece of the heating strip. Although this scheme can solve the problem of reliable crimping of the wire group and the connecting piece, since the flanging crimping surface or the corner wrapping crimping surface and the electrode piece are in surface contact, if they do not fit smoothly, it is easy to cause loosening of the fit and resulting in loosening. Coupled with the fact that the flat punch of the stamping die applies impact pressure to both sides of the flanging or corner wrapping at the same time, since the contact between the electrode piece and both sides of the flanging or corner wrapping is line contact and the indentation is concentrated here, if the stamping die has a slight unevenness, it will cause damage and fracture of the electrode piece on the indentation line, resulting in the scrapping of the entire heating strip and wire group.

[0015] In summary: The connection methods of the power supply wire and the electrode piece in the above prior art all have many potential safety and reliability hazards such as poor contact, loose crimping, and stamping damage.

[0016] Prior art: The conductive adhesive is used between the heating sheet and the electrode sheet. Since the conductive adhesive contains a large amount of metal conductive powder, the bonding strength of the adhesive is greatly reduced. 2. The silica gel that rapidly solidifies naturally at room temperature is used, resulting in high production and storage costs and inconvenient use. 3. The existing heating core forms side grooves after rolling, which has a positive effect on improving the contact between the heating element, the electrode sheet and the heating surface of the aluminum tube and enhancing the thermal efficiency.

[0017] Disadvantages of the prior art: 1. Xinya CN00221004: (1) Although it is set that there are various insertion methods such as the side wall, the front wall or the top wall of the bracket and forward, backward, left or right, etc., it is limited that the temperature control sensing surface must be closely attached to the heat dissipation strip with live surface, which is prone to safety accidents such as short circuit and electric leakage, and is unreliable and difficult to operate and install. (2) The two jacks for temperature control and fusing respectively penetrate into the inner wall of the cavity of the bracket, so that the power leads and the electrical connection points can only be exposed outside the bracket. (3) The set cover plate only has a positioning function against the thermostat and cannot solve the problem of the exposed connection points of the live part, bringing great potential safety and reliability hazards in use. 2. Xu Chengdong CN201420064071: The cover plate set in the space on the surface of the bracket is easy to cause water droplets to penetrate into the cavity for positioning the thermostat and the fuse, bringing potential safety hazards. 3. Guowei 200920235929: (1) The thermostat is located in the cavity of the bracket body. When the heating device is in a ventilated working state, the temperature change of the sensing surface of the thermostat and the dry burning state during abnormal conditions are not obvious, and it takes a long recovery time for the temperature of the sensing surface to reach the protection temperature. (2) The temperature difference between the ventilated state and the dry burning state is not obvious, which is easy to cause misoperation. (3) The thermostat cavity is placed in the bracket body, occupying a large space, which is easy to cause interference between the power lines and connection points of different polarities in the cavity of the body, resulting in major safety accidents such as short circuit or creepage.

[0018] 1. Guowei patents CN204741574U and CN104797015A: (1) There is no extension surface and the second through hole on the cover plate. (2) There is no sealing ring on the wire harness, and the wire harness is positioned by wire ties, which is easy to loosen and unreliable.

[0019] Prior art: (1) There is no sealant inside the cavity of the tail bracket. When the heater works, the condensed water generated due to the rapid change of the ambient temperature is easy to penetrate into the internal part of the tail aluminum tube heating body, resulting in a short circuit. (2) For Linzhi CN302536477S, there are unsealed steps at the tail, which cannot accommodate the sealant. (3) The tail of the aluminum tube heating body is flush with or lower than the tail of the radiator.

[0020] Prior art: Gree CN201010245871: (1) All power connection points are exposed on the surface of the bracket, unable to solve the problems of leakage under sealing and humid conditions, and is unsafe to use. (2) There is no chamfer or groove at the joint between the bracket and the heater. (3) There is no sealant at the joint, and the gap at the joint is prone to water seepage, unable to ensure the sealing performance and avoid water seepage and leakage problems under humid environments, and is unsafe to use. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Object of the Invention: The object of the present invention is to solve the problems of a series of major and malignant safety accidents such as the loosening of the heat-conducting aluminum tube caused by the release of thermal stress due to the instantaneous cold and heat shock during the start-up - heating - shutdown cooling process of the in-tube heating element of the existing PTC heating device during frequent operation, resulting in gaps between the in-tube heating element, the conductive electrode, and the insulating layer, and the resulting surface electrification, leakage, short circuit, breakdown, explosion, and burning of flammable plastics in the indoor unit due to the sparking, carbonization between the heating element and the electrode plate, and local high temperature caused by long-term sparking, which leads to the melting of the insulating layer.

[0022] Technical Solution: A PTC heating device includes a PTC heating core, a thin-walled flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube, and a radiator. The heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, a plurality of PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, a temperature-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a temperature-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating element. The temperature-resistant insulating silica gel has at least two components, and at least one of the components is liquid at room temperature. The two silica gels are configured in a ratio of approximately 1:1 and fully mixed to form a synthetic silica gel with good fluidity. The preparation process of the heat-conducting aluminum tube includes the following steps:

[0023] 1) Melting and softening aluminum ingots in a special melting furnace;

[0024] 2) Then stretching the softened aluminum liquid with a certain strength at the furnace mouth through a special die cavity to the outside of the furnace, and the die cavity is located at the furnace mouth of the melting furnace;

[0025] 3) The softened aluminum liquid is rapidly cooled during the uniform stretching process in a room-temperature environment to form a flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube.

[0026] Further, the radiator is a corrugated heat dissipation strip. The heating core is inserted into the flat long cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube to form an aluminum tube heating body. After gradually rolling the heat-conducting plane of the heating body, all the gaps between the PTC heating sheet, the electrode strip and the temperature-resistant insulating film in the heating core inserted into the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube and between the heat-conducting plane of the heating core and the inner wall of the heat-conducting aluminum tube are eliminated, and they are closely attached to each other to form a PTC heating body. The heat-conducting plane of the PTC heating body is attached to the corresponding heat-conducting plane of the heat dissipation strip, and synthetic silica gel is applied at the attachment. At a temperature of 150 - 300 °C and for a time of more than 5 minutes, the synthetic silica gel is completely cured, and the heat-conducting aluminum tube heating body and the heat dissipation strip are firmly bonded into one body.

[0027] Further, the heat-conducting aluminum tube heating body is rolled over the entire heat-conducting surface of the heating body by using multiple groups of rollers. The distance between the rolling surfaces of each group of rollers can be finely adjusted. After being rolled by each group of rollers in sequence, the thickness of the heating body is gradually reduced by 0.01 - 0.25 mm compared with that before rolling.

[0028] Prior art: For claims 1-2, there is a conductive adhesive between the heating sheet and the electrode sheet. Since the conductive adhesive contains a large amount of metallic conductive powder, the bonding strength of the adhesive is greatly reduced. 2. The silicone used solidifies rapidly and naturally at room temperature, resulting in high production and storage costs and inconvenient use. 3. The existing heating core has grooves on the side formed after rolling, which has a positive effect on improving the contact between the heating element, the electrode sheet, and the heating surface of the aluminum tube, and enhancing the thermal efficiency. The present invention can greatly improve and enhance the bending caused by the stress released due to the change in the thickness state of the heating core after rolling, ensuring the flatness and non-deformation of the product after rolling. For products with a length of more than 500 - 1000 mm (wall-mounted and floor-standing air conditioners between 1.5 hp and 5 hp), the reinforcing ribs on the side can greatly improve the bending and folding resistance strength, effectively eliminating and reducing the deformation caused by external forces during turnover, transportation, and installation. In addition, the reinforcing ribs on the side can also greatly improve and enhance the wrapping strength of the heat-conducting aluminum tube around the internal heating element, conductive electrode sheet, and insulation layer, effectively eliminating the heat stress release caused by the instantaneous temperature change during the frequent start-heating-shutdown cooling process of the internal heating body of the tube, which leads to the loosening of the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the resulting gaps between the internal heating element, conductive electrode, and insulation layer, as well as the common surface charging, leakage, short circuit, breakdown, explosion, and burning of flammable plastics in the indoor unit caused by the sparking, carbonization between the heating element and the electrode sheet, and local high temperature caused by long-term sparking, resulting in a series of major and serious safety accidents. (1) Since the indentation size of the aluminum tube into the inner cavity during the rolling process after tube threading is smaller compared to that without the reinforcing ribs, this can reduce the safety hazard of non-insulation caused by the extrusion of the side wall of the tube on the insulation film during the pressing process; (2) The reinforcing ribs on the side are more beneficial for eliminating the irregular extension of the aluminum tube in the length and width directions during the rolling of the aluminum tube heating body after tube threading to eliminate the gaps between the internal parts of the tube and between the tube walls (including the extension of the wall thickness of the aluminum tube itself). On the premise of uniform extension, the electrode sheet, insulation film, and PTC heating element inside the aluminum tube will be tightly combined with the inner wall of the aluminum tube in all directions, which will have a positive effect on improving the thermal efficiency, anti-aging performance, and long-term use reliability of the product; (3) On the premise of uniform shrinkage of the aluminum tube and closer combination between the internal parts of the tube, it also has an obvious improvement effect on reducing the operating noise caused by temperature change of the product.

[0029] Without reinforcing ribs and with only less than 3 sets of rollers, it can only adjust the pressure and cannot adjust the distance between the two rollers. 2. Invention effect: (1) For claims 1 and 2-1, since the surface contact between the PTC heating sheet and the electrode strip is not an absolute mirror surface, it conducts electricity based on the corresponding minute protruding points in contact, and the concave points store silica gel to maintain the bonding strength. By rolling the heat-conducting surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube, the conductive contact points are evenly distributed, and the silica gel stored in the concave points is tight and uniform, that is, it ensures reliable and uniform electrical contact points, makes the current distribution uniform, eliminates the contact resistance, and at the same time makes the silica gel stored in the concave points between the corresponding heat-conducting contact surfaces also evenly distributed, ensuring the connection and contact strength. (2) For claims 3 and 4, the reinforcing ribs can accurately set the thickness of the heating core after pressing. On the basis of the gradually decreasing thickness, the contact and fit between the heating element in the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heat-conducting aluminum tube are closer. 2. By gradually and slightly reducing the thickness of the heating core, it is ensured that the heating elements in the tube do not crack or break after pressing, there is no gap between the sheets, and the combination between the heating element and the electrode sheet is firm. Example: The designed gap of the first group of rollers is 0.05 mm, which has the effect of evenly and tightly fitting the high-viscosity silica gel between the heating element and the electrode sheet, ensuring that due to the uniform pressing of the silica gel, there is no displacement and gap between adjacent heating elements and between them and the electrode sheet due to the bonding effect of the glue when the pressure increases. The subsequent groups of rollers are gradually pressurized on this basis to make the contact surfaces between the various fittings in the tube fit more tightly. Especially for the brittleness of the ceramic heating element, it is significantly improved under the state of slowly, evenly and gradually increasing the pressure in the linear and entire surface directions of the heat-conducting width. It eliminates the major safety accidents such as short circuits and open circuits of the heating device caused by the cracks and breakages of the heating elements that are unavoidable in the existing technology during pressing, and the durability hidden dangers such as power attenuation and reduced service life caused by the de-bonding or uneven fitting between the heating element and the electrode sheet.

[0030] A PTC heating device, comprising a PTC heating core, a heat-conducting aluminum tube and a radiator, wherein the heat-conducting aluminum tube has a heat-conducting plane and a pressing surface, the wall thickness of the heat-conducting plane is more than 3 times that of the pressing surface, the radiator includes heat-dissipating fins, and the preparation process of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is as follows:

[0031] 1) Melting and softening aluminum ingots in a special melting furnace;

[0032] 2) Then stretching the softened aluminum liquid with a certain strength at the furnace mouth through a special die cavity to the outside of the furnace, and the die cavity is located at the furnace mouth of the melting furnace;

[0033] 3) The softened aluminum liquid is rapidly cooled during the uniform stretching process at room temperature to form a flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube.

[0034] Further, the radiator is formed by shoveling the heat-conducting plane wall thickness of the heat-conducting aluminum tube into heat-dissipating fins. The heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, a plurality of PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, heat-resistant insulating silica gel, and a heat-resistant insulating film.

[0035] Further, the heat-conducting plane wall thickness at the shoveled heat-dissipating fin part of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is 3 - 15 mm, the width of the heat-dissipating fin is 11.5 - 24.5 mm, the height is 5 - 17 mm. The two sides of the heat-dissipating fins on the heat-conducting plane of the heat-conducting aluminum tube are positioning pressing surfaces with a width smaller than the width of the heat-dissipating fin. The wall thickness of the positioning pressing surface is 0.1 - 1.5 mm, the width is 0.5 - 6 mm, the wall thickness of the two side walls of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is 0.2 - 2.5 mm, and the thickness of the heat-dissipating fin is 0.02 - 2.5 mm.

[0036] Pressing can be carried out by applying pressure to the two side pressing surfaces and rolling the two side pressing surfaces with multiple groups of rollers.

[0037] Further, the heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, a plurality of PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheet and the heat-conducting surface of the electrode strip, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strip clamping the PTC heating element. After the heating core penetrates into the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube including the heat-dissipating fins, by applying pressure to the pressing surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube, the width gap between the heating core and the inner side wall of the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is basically eliminated and then combined into the PTC heating device. The heat-dissipating aluminum tube at the end of the power input end of the heating device extends 5 - 50 mm beyond the end of the heat-dissipating fin corresponding to this end.

[0038] Further, there is at least 1 folding surface in the width direction of the heat-dissipating fins on the heat-conducting aluminum tube, and the apex angle of the fold is 5 - 40 degrees.

[0039] Further, the heat-dissipating fin has a substantially arcuate surface along the width direction of the heat-dissipating surface. The chord width of the arc surface is 2 - 8 mm, and the height of the arc is 0.1 - 1.5 mm.

[0040] Advantages of the invention: 1. Increase the heat-dissipating area; 2. Reduce the aluminum material cost; 3. The shape of the heat-dissipating fin can achieve the effect of storing and accommodating the condensed water droplets caused by the surface temperature difference of the heater after shutdown, and prevent the functional defects caused by the blowing of this part of the water droplets into the room with the instant heat exchange air volume during the next startup.

[0041] A PTC heating device includes a heating core, a thin-walled flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube, and a radiator, and the preparation process of the heat-conducting aluminum tube includes the following steps:

[0042] 1) Melting and softening aluminum ingots in a dedicated melting furnace;

[0043] 2) Then stretching the softened aluminum liquid with a certain strength at the furnace mouth out of the furnace through a special die cavity, and the die cavity is located at the furnace mouth of the melting furnace;

[0044] 3) The softened aluminum liquid is rapidly cooled during the uniform stretching process in a room-temperature environment to form a flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube.

[0045] Furthermore, the heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, several PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating elements. The surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is a heat-conducting plane and a pressing surface with substantially equal wall thicknesses. The radiator is inlaid or welded on the heat-conducting plane of the heat-conducting aluminum tube. After the heating core penetrates into the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube including the radiator, by pressing the pressing surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube, the width gap between the heating core and the inner side wall of the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube is basically eliminated simultaneously. The width of the pressing surface is 0.5 - 6 mm, and the radiator is positioned on the heat-conducting plane of the heat-conducting aluminum tube to form the PTC heating device.

[0046] A PTC heating device includes a PTC heating core, a heat-conducting aluminum tube, and a radiator. The heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, several PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating elements. A part of the heating core at the electrode lead-out end of the heating device extends beyond the end corresponding to the heat-conducting aluminum tube, and heat-resistant insulating sealant is coated on the periphery of the joint between the insulating film of the electrode lead-out end part of the heating core and the heat-conducting aluminum tube.

[0047] Function: It can effectively prevent condensation water droplets from seeping into the gap between the inside of the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heating core through the gap at the joint between the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heating core when the heating device is used in a humid environment, resulting in water droplets invading the gap between the electrode strip covered by the insulating film and the PTC heating sheet, causing leakage and non-insulation of the heating device, and even short circuits, breakdowns, and other failures as well as major safety accidents such as explosions, fires, and electric leakage of electrical products such as air conditioners using the PTC heating device.

[0048] A PTC heating device includes a PTC heating core, a heat-conducting aluminum tube and a radiator. The heating core consists of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, several PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, a heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating elements. There are at least one columnar reinforcing rib on the side surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube of the heating device. The columnar reinforcing rib is at a generally central position on the side surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube heating body and is as long as the heat-conducting aluminum tube. The cross-section of the columnar reinforcing rib is a generally arc shape with a chord width of 0.3 - 2 mm and an arch height of 0.2 - 2 mm.

[0049] A PTC heating device, characterized in that: a heat dissipation strip and a PTC heating sheet attached to the heat-conducting sheet of the heat dissipation strip form a group. There is a mixed silica gel between the heat-conducting plane of the heat dissipation strip heat-conducting sheet and the heating plane of the heating sheet. The mixed silica gel is composed of at least two components, and at least one of the components is liquid at room temperature. After being proportionally configured and fully mixed, the silica gel becomes a synthetic silica gel with good fluidity. At a temperature of 150 - 300 °C and for a time of more than 5 minutes, the synthetic silica gel is completely cured, combining the heat dissipation strip and the PTC heating sheet into the PTC heating device.

[0050] An assembly of a PTC heating device includes a PTC heater composed of a PTC heating core, a heat-conducting aluminum tube and a radiator, a first mounting bracket, a second mounting bracket, and an incoming power supply wire harness connecting a temperature controller and a temperature fuse. The heating core consists of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, several PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, a heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating elements. The first mounting bracket has a seat body and a cover. The seat body has an open large cavity for accommodating the lead-out ends of different-polarity electrode strips of the heating device along the extending ends of the electrode strips of the heating device, an electrically connected part with the incoming power supply wire harness, and a wire connection of the power supply wire harness. There is also an open small cavity separated by a positioning insulating wall in the open large cavity. The small cavities respectively accommodate and position the heat-conducting surface at the end of the heating device, the temperature controller, or the temperature fuse. The temperature-sensing surfaces of the temperature controller and the temperature fuse are attached to one side of the positioning insulating wall corresponding to the heat-conducting plane of the adjacent heating device. The angle between the cavities positioning the temperature controller and the temperature fuse and the heat-conducting surface at the end of the heating device is 0 - 90°.

[0051] Furthermore, there is an open positioning cavity groove for accommodating the lead-out power supply wire of the temperature fuse on the adjacent side of the positioning insulating wall of the open small cavity positioning the temperature fuse.

[0052] Furthermore, there is a notch connecting the two cavities on the positioning insulating wall of the open small cavity for accommodating the temperature fuse and the open positioning cavity groove for accommodating the power lead of the temperature fuse. The lead of the temperature fuse is embedded and positioned in the lead positioning cavity groove through this notch. The temperature controller, temperature fuse, introduced power harness and each connection point positioned in the open large cavity of the bracket seat body are all sealed in the corresponding open large cavity by the cover.

[0053] Description of the inventive points: 1. Temperature control and fusing cavity: (1) Applicable to the assemblies with charged surfaces and the assemblies with insulated surfaces. (2) For the heating devices with charged surfaces, since the surface of the radiator is charged and the surface of the round tubular fuse is also charged, the prior art all adopts radiative temperature sensing. That is, the temperature control and fusing are installed in the space with a certain electrical clearance and safety distance from the heating device, and it is necessary to install accessories such as sheet metal, resulting in high cost and low assembly efficiency. In addition, due to the adoption of thermal radiation temperature sensing, there are also functional defects such as long action time, poor sensitivity and reliability. The temperature control and fusing of the present invention are attached to the heating surface of the heating device, with high temperature sensing accuracy and fast abnormal temperature action, effectively improving the reliability. (3) By adopting the present invention, the existing temperature sensing method of temperature control and fusing protection can be changed to the conductive temperature sensing with the temperature sensing surface closely attached to the heating surface of the heating device. Whether the heating device is charged or not, the temperature sensing control element does not contact the radiator, which not only improves the safety and reliability of the product, but also greatly reduces the cost of the product and improves the assembly production efficiency. 4. Positioning cavity groove for the fusing lead: (1) Deficiencies of the prior art: Since the input and output power leads of the general cylindrical fuse are at its two ends respectively, and one of the leads has the same polarity as the surface metal shell of the fuse, it is easy to cause the two leads to short-circuit while the two short-circuited fuses do not work. (2) In the prior art, the fuse and its power input and output ends are all positioned in the same cavity, and its two different power leads are all positioned in the same cavity. Moreover, due to the limitation of the internal space of the cavity, one lead of the fuse can only be bent by more than 180° at its root and then closely attached to its outer shell to be led out. With a little external force, it is extremely easy to cause the fracture or detachment of the root, and at the same time, it also causes the displacement of the fuse, affecting the temperature control accuracy and protection function of the fuse. Inventive points: (1) A separate fuse lead positioning groove is provided. The power lead positioned in this groove can be bent twice at positions away from the root in the oral cavity of the positioned fuse, each bend being less than 90°, so that the power lead is led out from this cavity groove. No matter how large the external force is, the stress point can only be on the end wall of the notch through which the fuse lead passes, without any potential risk of displacement of the fuse. (2) Greatly improves the working reliability of the fuse. (3) The two power leads with different polarities are respectively located in two different cavities, completely avoiding the potential risk of short-circuit between the leads, and the use safety is also reliably improved, guaranteed and enhanced.

The first mounting bracket has a base body and a cover. The base body has a first cavity and an insert sleeve for accommodating the electrical connection portion of the lead-out ends of different-polarity electrode strips of the heating device and the incoming power supply wire harness and the wire connection of the power supply wire harness along the extending ends of the electrode strips of the heating device, and a second cavity for accommodating the end portion of the radiator of the heating device. There is also a small pit for accommodating and positioning the temperature controller and the temperature fuse at the wall thickness portion of the second cavity that fits the heat-dissipating surface of the radiator end portion. The depth of the small pit is much smaller than the lengths of the temperature controller and the temperature fuse.

[0055] Further, the length of the open surface of the small pit is close to the lengths of the temperature controller and the temperature fuse.

[0056] Further, there is a positioning cavity groove for accommodating the power supply lead of the fuse adjacent to the positioning wall of the small pit for positioning the temperature fuse.

[0057] Further, there is a notch connecting the pit and the positioning cavity groove on the partition wall between the small pit for accommodating the temperature fuse and the positioning cavity groove for the adjacent power supply lead of the temperature fuse. The lead of the temperature fuse is embedded and positioned in the positioning cavity groove of the power supply lead through this notch.

[0058] Prior art: Guo Wei CN201515508U. Disadvantages: 1. The connection points of the temperature controller, temperature fuse and power cord harness are in the same plane of the cavity. The installation position and space are small, and it is inevitable that the power connection points and wires of different polarities interfere with each other, and there are relatively large potential safety and reliability hazards. (2) The temperature difference between the ventilation state and the dry-burning state is not obvious, which is likely to cause misoperation. Invention point: The temperature controller and fuse are positioned in the corresponding cavities of another plane at the power lead-out end and electrical connection pressure point of the heating device. The power lead-out end of the heater, the introduced power supply, and the connection points of the temperature controller and fuse are all located in the plane of the large cavity. The space of the cavity is large, and the power connection points and wires of different polarities can be conveniently isolated from each other without interference. The optimization of the structure brings improvement and enhancement of safety and reliability. Embodiment: See the structure diagram of the Aux GREE model components. 2. GREE CN102271429A. Characteristics and defects of the prior art: (1) Both the temperature control and the fuse are located on the surface of the support seat body and a considerable part is exposed. When used in a humid and corrosive environment, the control devices are easily contaminated and eroded, resulting in failure. (2) The power connection points and power leads of the live parts are all positioned on the outer surface of the support seat body. In a humid and corrosive environment, they are easily aged and the insulation is reduced, leading to safety accidents. Invention effects: (1) The temperature difference on the temperature-sensing surface of the temperature controller and temperature fuse is significantly different in the normal working states of heating and ventilation and the abnormal state of heating without ventilation. That is, when the fan motor fails and the PTC heater is in an abnormal working state of dry-burning without air, the temperature difference between the temperature controller and temperature fuse located on the support surface and the working states of ventilation and heating is more obvious. In the state of dry-burning without ventilation, it can effectively disconnect and protect instantly. (2) Because the temperature controller and temperature fuse are directly cooled by the circulating natural wind in the ventilation working state, it reliably avoids misoperation caused by poor heat dissipation of the temperature-sensing surface of the temperature controller and temperature fuse in the ventilation working state. (3) The temperature controller and temperature fuse are sealed inside the seat body of the mounting bracket and are attached to the radiator surface of the PTC heating device, without occupying the volume of the cavity where the electrode lead-out end and power connection point are located in the first mounting bracket seat body, so that there is a larger installation space between the power lines and connection points of different polarities of the temperature control and fuse and they are separated, effectively ensuring sufficient creepage distance and electrical clearance. (4) During assembly, the positioning and operation space of the power cord harness is significantly increased, greatly improving the assembly efficiency and significantly reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0059] An assembly of a PTC heating device, including a PTC heater composed of a PTC heating core, a heat-conducting aluminum tube and a radiator, a first mounting bracket, a second mounting bracket, and an incoming power supply wire harness connecting a temperature controller and a temperature fuse. The heating core includes a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip having a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, a plurality of PTC heating sheets juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, a heat-resistant insulating silica gel located between the PTC heating sheets and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips, and a heat-resistant insulating film covering the electrode strips clamping the PTC heating element. The first mounting bracket has a seat body and a cover. The seat body has an open large cavity along the extending end of the electrode strip of the heating device for accommodating the lead-out ends of the electrode strips of different polarities of the heating device, the electrical connection part of the incoming power supply wire harness, and the wire connection of the power supply wire harness. The open large cavity has a cavity for accommodating the temperature controller or the temperature fuse along the thickness side of the side surface of the heating device.

[0060] Further, the depth of the cavity is close to the length of the temperature controller or the temperature fuse and is in close contact with the heat-conducting surface of the heating device.

[0061] Further, the open cross-section of the cavity is perpendicular to the length direction of the heating device and is larger than the cross-section of the temperature controller or the temperature fuse.

[0062] Further, the temperature controller or the temperature fuse is inserted into the cavity from the open end of the corresponding small cavity, and the incoming power supply wire harness thereof is positioned and accommodated in the open large cavity of the seat body. After the seat body and the cover close the open large cavity, the open part of the small cavity, the live connection part of the power supply wire harness, and all the leads of different polarities are reliably sealed in the open large cavity of the bracket.

[0063] Further, the cavity is parallel to the heat-conducting surface of the heating device.

[0064] Further, there are at least two groups of the heating devices, and the cavity is located between and in contact with the heat-conducting planes of two adjacent groups of heating devices.

[0065] Disadvantages of the prior art: 1. New Industry CN00221004: (1) Although it is set that there are various insertion methods such as being able to be set on the side wall, front wall or top wall of the bracket and inserting forward, backward, left or right, etc., it is limited by the precondition that the temperature control temperature sensing surface must be closely attached to the heat dissipation strip with surface charge, which is prone to safety accidents such as short circuits and electric leakage, and is unreliable and difficult to operate and install. (2) The two jacks for temperature control and fusing respectively extend deep into the inner wall of the concave cavity of the bracket, so that the power leads and electrical connection points can only be exposed outside the bracket. (3) The set cover plate only has the positioning function of holding the thermostat and cannot solve the problem of the exposure of the connection points of the energized part, bringing great hidden dangers to the safety and reliability in use. 2. Xu Chengdong CN201420064071: The set cover plate is exposed in the space on the surface of the bracket, which is prone to water droplets seeping into the cavity for positioning the thermostat and fuse, bringing potential safety hazards. 3. Guowei 200920235929: (1) The thermostat is located in the cavity of the bracket seat. When the heating device is in the ventilation working state, the temperature change of the temperature sensing surface of the thermostat and the dry burning state during abnormal conditions are not obvious, and it takes a long recovery time for the temperature of the temperature sensing surface to reach the protection temperature. (2) The temperature difference between the ventilation state and the dry burning state is not obvious, which is prone to false operation. (3) The thermostat cavity is placed in the seat body of the bracket, occupying a large space, which is prone to interference between the power lines and connection points of different polarities in the cavity of the seat body, resulting in major safety accidents such as short circuits or creepage. Creativity: (1) The small cavity extends outwards in the opposite direction of the head direction where the power is introduced into the heating device, without occupying the volume of the cavity of the seat body, so that there is enough space between the power lines and connection points of different polarities of the thermostat and the fuse to be separated and ensure sufficient creepage distance and electrical clearance, and the material cost is also relatively low. (2) There is an insulating and heat-resistant partition wall between the temperature sensing surface of the thermostat and the heating surface of the heating device, and the temperature sensing surface is attached to the insulating partition wall adjacent to the heating surface of the heating device, without potential safety hazards such as electric leakage, creepage and false operation. (3) The small cavity, the introduced power lines and all the energized connection points are all placed in the large cavity of the seat body, without interference of different polarities, and water droplets cannot seep into the cavity for accommodating the temperature controller and temperature fuse, greatly improving and enhancing the reliability and safety in use. (4) When in the ventilation working state, the cavity for accommodating the thermostat / fuse has the same heat exchange conditions as the heating device, and the temperature is much lower than that in the dry burning and non-ventilation state. In this way, it can ensure that the protection temperature point of the thermostat is quickly reached in the abnormal state of dry burning without wind, playing a sensitive protection role, and ensuring that no false operation occurs in the working state due to the large temperature difference between the dry burning state without wind and the ventilation working state. The reliability of the product is ensured. Embodiment: The double-row component diagram of the DeLong mobile air conditioner. Embodiment description: The cavity can be closely attached to the lengthwise surface or the widthwise heat dissipation corrugated surface of the thickness side of the heating device of the device. Among them, for the structure of closely attaching to the heat dissipation corrugated surface, the temperature control and fusing can be on the same heat dissipation surface, and the windward surface is the best solution.One kind of optimized Delong double-row heating device. Since the heating device has good heat dissipation effect in the ventilation and heating state, it can completely avoid the misoperation of the thermostat or fuse in the working state, and improve the reliability of the product function.

Invention effects: (1) Greatly improve the sealing and insulation performance, ensuring the reliable sealing and insulation of the live part. (2) Avoid the overflow and waste of the sealant, ensuring the sealing and insulation effects. (3) Improve the operability and process consistency of mass production, greatly improving the production efficiency.

[0074] Furthermore, the power harness is composed of the wires inserted into an insulating sleeve, and a rubber sealing ring is embedded and sheathed on the insulating sleeve. The rubber sealing ring and the power harness embedded and covered by it are positioned together in the first through hole and the second through hole. When the cover covers the base, the first through hole and the second through hole are matched to form a roughly circular third through hole. By pressing the cover, the rubber sealing ring embedded in the third through hole is tightly compacted, so that a sealed fit without any gap is formed between the rubber sealing ring and the insulating sleeve and the wire covered by it.

[0075] Furthermore, the sealing ring has at least one opening around it. Before the cover is put on and tightly sealed, the following steps can be performed:

[0089] Furthermore, the heat-conducting aluminum tube at the tail end of the heating device protrudes from the tail end of the heating device by 0.5 to 10 mm, and the bottom surface of the cavity of the second mounting bracket has a cavity for accommodating the protruding part of the tail end of the heat-conducting aluminum tube, and the cavity is filled with insulating sealant.

[0090] Existing technologies: (1) There is no sealant inside the cavity of the tail bracket, and the condensation water generated by the sudden change of ambient temperature when the heater is working can easily penetrate into the tail aluminum tube heating element and cause a short circuit.

[0103] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention:

[0104] 1. Prior art: The conductive adhesive is used between the heating sheet and the electrode sheet. Since the conductive adhesive contains a large amount of metal conductive powder, the bonding strength of the adhesive is greatly reduced. 2. The silicone rubber that rapidly solidifies naturally at room temperature is used, resulting in high production and storage costs and inconvenient use. 3. The existing heating core forms side grooves after rolling, which has a positive effect on improving the contact between the heating element, the electrode sheet and the heating surface of the aluminum tube, and enhancing the thermal efficiency. The present invention can greatly improve and enhance the bending caused by the stress released due to the change in the thickness state of the heating core after rolling, ensuring the flatness and non-deformation of the product after rolling. For those with a length of more than 500 - 1000 mm (wall-mounted and floor-standing air conditioners between 1.5 HP and 5 HP), the side reinforcing ribs can greatly improve the bending and folding resistance strength, effectively eliminating and reducing the deformation caused by external forces during turnover, transportation and installation. In addition, the side reinforcing ribs can also greatly improve and enhance the coating strength of the heat-conducting aluminum tube on the heating element, conductive electrode sheet and insulation layer enclosed therein, effectively eliminating the heat stress release caused by the instantaneous cold and heat shock during the frequent operation start - heating - shutdown cooling process of the heating body inside the tube, which leads to the loosening of the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the resulting gap between the heating element, conductive electrode and insulation layer inside the tube, and the common surface charging, leakage, short circuit and breakdown, explosion, burning of flammable plastics in the indoor unit and other series of major and malignant safety accidents caused by the sparking, carbonization between the heating element and the electrode sheet and the local high temperature caused by long-term sparking resulting in the melting of the insulation layer. (1) Since the recessed dimension of the aluminum tube into the inner cavity of the aluminum tube during the rolling process after tube threading is smaller than that without the reinforcing ribs, this can reduce the safety hazard of insulation damage caused by the extrusion of the side wall of the tube on the insulation film during the pressing process; (2) The side reinforcing ribs are more conducive to eliminating the irregular extension of the aluminum tube heating body in the length and width directions during the rolling of the aluminum tube after tube threading to eliminate the gaps between the parts inside the tube and between the tube walls (including the extension of the wall thickness of the aluminum tube itself). On the premise of uniform extension, the electrode sheet, insulation film and PTC heating element inside the aluminum tube will be closely combined with the inner wall of the aluminum tube in all directions, which will have a positive effect on improving the thermal efficiency, anti-aging performance and long-term use reliability of the product; (3) On the premise of uniform shrinkage of the aluminum tube and closer combination of the parts inside the tube, it also has an obvious improvement effect on reducing the operating noise caused by cold and heat shock of the product.

[0105] Without reinforcing ribs, there are only less than 3 sets of rollers, which can only adjust the pressure and cannot adjust the distance between the two rollers. 2. Invention effects: (1) For claims 1 and 2-1, since the surface contact between the PTC heating sheet and the electrode strip is not an absolute mirror surface, it conducts electricity based on the corresponding micro-protrusions in contact, and the recesses store silicone to maintain the bonding strength. By rolling the heat-conducting surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube, the conductive contact points are evenly distributed, and the recesses store silicone tightly and evenly, that is, both ensuring reliable and uniform electrical contact points, making the current distribution uniform and eliminating the contact resistance, and at the same time making the silicone stored in the recesses between the corresponding heat-conducting surfaces also evenly distributed, ensuring the connection and contact strength. (2) For claims 3 and 4, the reinforcing ribs can accurately set the thickness of the heating core after pressing. On the basis of the gradually decreasing thickness, the contact and fit between the heating element in the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heat-conducting aluminum tube are more compact. 2. By gradually and slightly reducing the thickness of the heating core, it is ensured that the heating elements in the tube do not crack or break after pressing, there is no gap between the sheets, and the combination between the heating element and the electrode sheet is firm. Example: The designed gap of the first group of rollers is 0.05 mm, which has the effect of evenly and tightly fitting the high-viscosity silicone between the heating element and the electrode sheet, ensuring that due to the uniform pressing of the silicone, the adjacent heating elements and between them and the electrode sheet are reliably positioned due to the adhesive effect of the glue and do not displace or have gaps. The subsequent groups of rollers are gradually pressurized on this basis to make the contact surfaces between the various fittings in the tube fit more tightly. Especially for the brittleness of the ceramic heating element, it is significantly improved under the state of slowly, evenly and gradually increasing the pressure in the linear and entire surface directions of the heat-conducting width. It eliminates the major safety accidents such as short circuits and open circuits of the heating device caused by the cracks and breakage of the heating element that cannot be avoided during pressing in the prior art, and the durability hidden dangers such as power attenuation and reduced service life caused by the de-bonding or uneven fitting between the heating element and the electrode sheet.

[0106] 2. Adopt a shovel-tooth heat sink. 1. Increase the heat dissipation area. 2. Reduce the aluminum material cost. 3. The shape of the heat sink can store and hold the condensed water droplets caused by the surface temperature difference of the heater after shutdown, eliminating the functional defects caused by these water droplets being blown into the room with the instant heat exchange air volume when starting the machine again.

[0107] 3. Adopt the design that the periphery of the joint between the insulating film at the electrode lead-out end part of the heating core and the heat-conducting aluminum tube is coated with a temperature-resistant insulating sealant, which can effectively prevent the condensed water droplets from seeping into the gap between the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heating core through the gap at the joint of the heat-conducting aluminum tube and the heating core when the heating device is used in a humid environment, resulting in the water droplets invading the gap between the electrode strip and the PTC heating sheet covered by the insulating film, causing leakage and non-insulation of the heating device, and even short circuits, breakdowns and other failures as well as major safety accidents such as explosion, combustion and leakage of electrical products such as air conditioners using PTC heating devices.

[0108] 4. Temperature control and fuse cavity: (1) Applicable to assemblies with live surfaces and assemblies with insulated surfaces. (2) For heating devices with live surfaces, since the surface of the radiator is live and the surface of the round tubular fuse is also live, the prior art has adopted radiative temperature sensing. That is, the temperature control and fuse are installed in a space with a certain electrical clearance and safety distance from the heating device, and it is necessary to install accessories such as sheet metal, which results in high costs and low assembly efficiency. In addition, due to the use of thermal radiation temperature sensing, it also brings functional defects such as a long action time, poor sensitivity and reliability. The temperature control and fuse of the present invention are attached to the heating surface of the heating device, with high temperature sensing accuracy, fast abnormal temperature operation, and effectively improved reliability. (3) By adopting the present invention, the existing temperature sensing method of temperature control and fuse protection can be changed to conductive temperature sensing with the temperature sensing surface closely attached to the heating surface of the heating device. Whether the heating device is live or not, the temperature sensing control element does not contact the radiator, which not only improves the safety and reliability of the product, but also greatly reduces the cost of the product and improves the assembly production efficiency. Fuse lead positioning cavity: (1) Deficiencies of the prior art: Since the input and output power leads of a common cylindrical fuse are at its two ends respectively, and one of the leads has the same polarity as the surface metal shell of the fuse, it is easy to cause the two leads to short-circuit while the two fuses of the fuse short-circuit and do not work. (2) In the prior art, the fuse and its power input and output ends are both positioned in the same cavity, and its two different power leads are both positioned in the same cavity. Moreover, due to the limitation of the internal space of the cavity, one lead of the fuse can only be bent by more than 180° at its root and then closely attached to its outer shell and led out. With a little external force, it is extremely easy to cause the fracture or detachment of the root, and at the same time, it also causes the displacement of the fuse, affecting the temperature control accuracy and protection function of the fuse. Invention points: (1) A separate fuse lead positioning groove is provided. The power lead positioned in the groove can be bent at two angles less than 90° at a position far from the root in the oral cavity of the positioning fuse, so that the power lead is led out from the cavity groove. No matter how large the external force is, the stress point can only be on the notch end wall passing through the fuse lead, without any potential risk of displacement of the fuse. (2) Greatly improves the working reliability of the fuse. (3) The two power leads with different polarities are respectively located in two different cavities, completely avoiding the hidden danger of short-circuit between the leads, and the use safety is also reliably improved, guaranteed and enhanced.

[0109] 5. (1) The temperature control is located in the cavity of the bracket seat. The temperature change of the temperature sensing surface of the temperature controller in the ventilation working state and the dry burning state when the abnormality occurs are not obvious. It takes a long recovery time for the temperature of the temperature sensing surface to reach the protection temperature. (2) The temperature difference between the ventilation state and the dry burning state is not obvious, which can easily lead to malfunction. (3) The temperature control cavity is placed in the bracket seat, which occupies a large space and can easily lead to interference between power lines and connection points of different polarities in the seat cavity, resulting in major safety accidents such as short circuit or creepage. 3. Effect of the invention: (1) The temperature difference of the temperature sensing surface of the temperature controller and the temperature fuse is significantly different in the normal working state of heating and ventilation and the abnormal state of heating without ventilation. That is, when the fan motor fails and causes the PTC heater to be in the abnormal working state of dry burning without wind, the temperature difference between the temperature controller and the temperature fuse located on the bracket surface and the ventilation and heating working state is more obvious. In the dry burning state without ventilation, the protection can be effectively disconnected instantly. (2) Because the temperature controller and the temperature fuse are directly exposed to the circulating natural wind for better heat dissipation in the ventilation working state, malfunction caused by the poor heat dissipation effect of the temperature controller and the temperature fuse's temperature sensing surface in the ventilation working state is reliably avoided. (3) The temperature controller and the temperature fuse are attached to the radiator surface of the PTC heating device and do not occupy the volume of the cavity where the electrode lead-out terminal and the power connection point are located in the first mounting bracket body, so that there is a larger installation space between the different polarity power lines and connection points of the temperature controller and the fuse and they are separated, effectively ensuring sufficient creepage distance and electrical clearance.

[0110] 6. (1) The small cavity extends in the opposite direction of the head of the heating device where the power supply is introduced, and does not occupy the volume of the base cavity, so that there is enough space between the power lines and connection points of the temperature controller and the fuse with different polarities to separate them and ensure sufficient creepage distance and electrical clearance, and the material cost is also low. (2) There is an insulating and heat-resistant isolation wall between the temperature controller's temperature sensing surface and the heating surface of the heating device. The temperature sensing surface is attached to the insulating isolation wall adjacent to the heating surface of the heating device, and there are no safety hazards such as leakage, creepage, and malfunction. (3) The small cavity, the power supply line, and all the live connection points are placed in the large cavity of the base, without interference of different polarities. It is impossible for water droplets to penetrate into the cavity containing the temperature controller and the temperature fuse, which greatly improves and enhances the reliability and safety of use. (4) When in ventilation mode, the cavity containing the thermostat / fuse has the same heat exchange conditions as the heating element, and the temperature is much lower than that in dry-burning without ventilation. This ensures that the temperature control protection temperature point is reached quickly in the abnormal dry-burning state without ventilation, and plays a role in sensitive protection and prevents malfunction in the working state due to the large temperature difference between the dry-burning state without ventilation and the ventilation state. This ensures the reliability of the product.

[0111] 7. (1) Greatly improves the sealing and insulation performance, which not only ensures the reliable sealing and insulation of the live parts, but also avoids the overflow and waste of the sealant. (2) Improves the operability and process consistency of mass production, and greatly improves the production efficiency. (3) In an environment where the electrical connection part and the power cord lead-out end are all immersed in water, it can still ensure that the live part of the heating device and its surface do not leak electricity. (4) Completely solves the problems of water seepage and electric leakage of the heater in a humid environment, and fundamentally solves the waterproof performance and the safety and reliability of use. Example: Structure diagram of the Midea model bracket.

[0112] 8. (1) The wire harness is tightly pressed and sealed through the sealing ring, and together with the sealant at the joint of the sealant, it completely eliminates the hidden danger of humid air and water droplets seeping into the cavity of the seat body. Even if the first bracket is immersed in water, it can still ensure that the live connection points in the cavity of the first bracket are completely sealed. Structurally, it completely solves the hidden dangers of electric leakage and short circuit in humid and immersion environments, and greatly improves the safety and reliability. (2) The third through hole forms an embedded fitting structure, which increases the fitting accuracy and bonding strength of each other.

[0113] 9. (1) When the heater works, the condensed water generated by the sudden change of the ambient temperature cannot penetrate into the internal part of the tail aluminum tube heating element, resulting in the accumulation of water droplets between the internal electrode plates or on the side area of the heating element, causing a short circuit. (2) Makes up for the fitting gap between the tail heating element and the radiator caused by tooling and human negligence during the device forming and curing process, eliminates the glue opening and degumming between the heating element and the radiator caused thereby, ensures the bonding strength of the heater, and guarantees the heat dissipation effect, safety and reliability. Improves the safety and reliability of the heating device.

[0114] 10. Makes up for the fitting gap between the tail heating element and the radiator caused by tooling and human negligence during the device forming and curing process, eliminates the glue opening and degumming between the heating element and the radiator caused thereby, ensures the bonding strength of the heater, and guarantees the heat dissipation effect, safety and reliability. Improves the safety and reliability of the heating device.

[0115] 11. (1) The joint gap between the seat body of the bracket and the heating device has double and enhanced sealing with sealant. (2) The chamfer or groove on the joint surface can effectively store the sealant with better fluidity, completely eliminate water seepage, and improve and enhance the waterproof performance. (3) The sealant stored at the chamfer increases the bonding area, improves the bonding strength, extends the service life, and eliminates the electric leakage and short circuit caused by humid and condensed water droplets.

[0138] Embodiment 1

[0139] A PTC heating device includes a PTC heating core, a thin-walled flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 and a radiator. The heating core is composed of a first electrode strip and a second electrode strip including a conductive surface and a heat-conducting surface, a plurality of PTC heating sheets 3 juxtaposed and clamped by the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips 2, a heat-resistant insulating silica gel 4 located between the PTC heating sheets 3 and the heat-conducting surfaces of the electrode strips 2, and a heat-resistant insulating film 5 covering the electrode strips 2 clamping the PTC heating element. The heat-resistant insulating silica gel 4 has at least two components, and at least one of the components is liquid at room temperature. The two silica gels are configured in a ratio of approximately 1:1 and fully mixed to form a synthetic silica gel with good fluidity. The preparation process of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 includes the following steps:

[0140] 1) Melting and softening aluminum ingots in a special melting furnace;

[0141] 2) Then stretching the softened aluminum liquid with a certain strength at the furnace mouth through a special die cavity to the outside of the furnace, and the die cavity is located at the furnace mouth of the melting furnace;

[0142] 3) The softened aluminum liquid is rapidly cooled during the uniform stretching process at room temperature environment to form a flat and long hollow heat-conducting aluminum tube.

[0143] The radiator 6 is a corrugated heat-dissipating strip. The heating core is inserted into the flat and long cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 to form an aluminum tube heating body. By gradually rolling the heat-conducting plane of the heating body, all the gaps between the PTC heating sheets 3, the electrode strips 2 and the heat-resistant insulating film 5 in the heating core inserted into the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 and between the heat-conducting plane of the heating core and the inner wall of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 are eliminated and closely adhered to each other to form a PTC heating body. The heat-conducting plane of the PTC heating body is adhered to the corresponding heat-conducting plane of the heat-dissipating strip, and synthetic silica gel is applied at the adhered place. At a temperature of 150 - 300 °C and for a time of more than 5 minutes, the synthetic silica gel is completely cured, and the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 heating body and the heat-dissipating strip are firmly bonded into one body.

[0144] The heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 heating element uses multiple groups of rollers to roll and press the entire heat-conducting surface of the heating element. The distance between the rolling surfaces of each group of rollers can be finely adjusted. After being successively rolled by each group of rollers, the thickness of the heating element gradually decreases by 0.01 - 0.25 mm respectively compared to before rolling.

After the heating core penetrates into the cavity of a heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 including heat-dissipating fins 10, by applying pressure to the pressing surface of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1, the width gap between the heating core and the inner side wall of the cavity of the heat-conducting aluminum tube 1 is basically eliminated and then combined into the PTC heating device. The heat-dissipating aluminum tube 1 at the end of the power supply introduction end of the heating device extends 5 mm beyond the end of the heat-dissipating fins 10 corresponding to this end.

There is also a small pit 28 for accommodating and positioning the temperature controller 17 and the thermal fuse 18 at the wall thickness part of the second cavity that fits the heat dissipation surface of the end part of the radiator 6. The depth of the small pit 28 is much smaller than the lengths of the temperature controller 17 and the thermal fuse 18.
