This structure has a short internal path of the main body and a small heat exchange area per unit mass of the medium, so the efficiency is low and energy consumption is seriously wasted. Moreover, since the liquid medium is heated by the shell to achieve phase change, the steam is further heated by the shell.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0058] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment discloses a liquid medium heating device, including a main body, three electric heating tubes 16 and a conductive sheet 11. The main body includes a shell 1, a first end shell 3 arranged at one end of the shell 1 and a second end shell 4 arranged at the other end of the shell 1.
[0060] The housing 1 is a metal structure, so it can conduct heat. The housing 1 is preferably an aluminum or stainless steel structure. The housing 1 is processed to form a first channel 1.1 and a second channel 1.2 that are parallel and isolated from each other. The number of the first channels 1.1 is two, and the number of the second channels 1.2 is three. The plane where the axes of the two first channels 1.1 are located is parallel to the plane where the axes of the three second channels 1.2 are located.
[0061] The electric heating tubes 16 are respectively arranged in the second channels 1.2, and include a tube body, a heating film arranged on the outer wall of the tube body, and a conductive film at least partially covering both ends of the heating film. Two groups of conductive sheets 11 are provided, and the conductive films are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive sheets 11. The tube body is a quartz tube, the heating film is a FTO film material, and the conductive film is a silver mesh film.
[0062] like Figure 6 and 7As shown, the first end shell 3 is a heat-resistant plastic structure. The function of the first end shell 3 is to realize the connection between the electric heating pipe 16 and the first channel 1.1 at the end. Therefore, it is formed with an inlet joint 3.1 and a first connecting structure through an injection molding process. The first connecting structure specifically includes a first inlet side connecting portion 3.2, a second inlet side connecting portion 3.6, a first inlet side channel 3.3 and a second inlet side channel 3.4. Among them, the inlet joint 3.1, the first inlet side connecting portion 3.2, and the second inlet side connecting portion 3.6 all pass through the end surface of the first end shell 3. The inlet joint 3.1 is connected to the equipment pipeline to input liquid medium into the heating device. The first inlet side channel 3.3 and the second inlet side channel 3.4 are arranged on one side end surface of the first end shell 3 facing the shell 1. One of the first inlet side connecting portions 3.2 is connected to the inlet joint 3.1, and the other first inlet side connecting portion 3.2 is connected to one of the second inlet side connecting portions 3.6 through the first inlet side channel 3.3, and the other two second inlet side connecting portions 3.6 are connected through the second inlet side channel 3.4.
[0063] Similar to the first end shell 3, the second end shell 4 is a heat-resistant plastic structure, which is formed with an outlet joint 4.1 and a second connecting structure by an injection molding process. The second connecting structure includes a first outlet side connecting portion 4.2, a second outlet side connecting portion 4.6, a first outlet side channel 4.3 and a second outlet side channel 4.4. Among them, the outlet joint 4.1, the first outlet side connecting portion 4.2 and the second outlet side connecting portion 4.6 all pass through the end surface of the second end shell 4. The outlet joint 4.1 is connected to the equipment pipeline and is used to output high-temperature gaseous medium or high-temperature liquid medium. The first outlet side channel 4.3 and the second outlet side channel 4.4 are arranged on one side end surface of the second end shell 4 facing the shell 1. One of the second outlet side connecting portions 4.6 is connected to the outlet joint 4.1, and the other two second outlet side connecting portions 4.6 are connected through the second outlet side channel 4.4. The two first outlet side connecting portions 4.2 are connected through the first outlet side channel 4.3.
[0064] Obviously, the first inlet-side connecting portion 3.2, the first outlet-side connecting portion 4.2 and the first channel 1.1 are provided in equal numbers. The first inlet-side connecting portion 3.2 is sealed and connected to the inlet-side end of the corresponding first channel 1.1 through the first seal 10, and the first outlet-side connecting portion 4.2 is sealed and connected to the outlet-side end of the corresponding first channel 1.1 through the first seal 10. The second inlet-side connecting portion 3.6, the second outlet-side connecting portion 4.6 and the electric heating pipe 16 are provided in equal numbers. The second inlet-side connecting portion 3.6 is sealed and connected to the inlet-side end of the corresponding electric heating pipe 16 through the second seal 9. The second outlet-side connecting portion 4.6 is sealed and connected to the outlet-side end of the corresponding electric heating pipe 16 through the second seal 9. The connecting portion is connected in the form of a through hole or a tube body according to design requirements.
[0065] Through the above connection method, a complete medium flow channel is formed, and the flow path of the medium is: inlet joint 3.1, first channel 1.1, first outlet side channel 4.3, first channel 1.1, first inlet side channel 3.3, electric heating pipe 16, second outlet side channel 4.4, electric heating pipe 16, second inlet side channel 3.4, outlet joint 4.1. Obviously, the liquid medium is heated in the electric heating pipe 16, and the heat generated by the electric heating pipe 16 will be dissipated into the second channel 1.2. Since the shell 1 is made of metal, the heat will be further conducted to the first channel 1.1, thereby realizing heat recovery for the waste heat of the medium that has not entered the electric heating pipe 16, and improving the heat utilization rate.
[0066] The state of the outlet medium of the outlet connector 4.1 is determined according to different usage scenarios. For example, in some scenarios, the liquid medium heating device only provides a liquid medium with a certain temperature, and the medium does not need to undergo a phase change. In other scenarios, the liquid medium heating device provides a gaseous medium with a certain temperature, and the medium needs to undergo a phase change to transform into a gaseous state.
[0067] For the insulation installation of the conductive sheet 11, the liquid medium heating device further includes two groups of conductive sheet fixing seats 2. One of the conductive sheet fixing seats 2 is installed between the body 1 and the first end shell 3, and the other conductive sheet fixing seat 2 is installed between the body 1 and the second end shell 4. The two groups of conductive sheets 11 are respectively installed in the corresponding conductive sheet fixing seats 2. The conductive sheet fixing seats 2 have avoidance holes to meet the communication connection of the corresponding components or structures.
[0068] like Figure 6 and 7 As shown, the first inlet side channel 3.3 and the second inlet side channel 3.4 are both structures extending away from the shell and ending with the first opening, and the first outlet side channel 4.3 is both a structure extending away from the shell and ending with the second opening. The first opening is provided with a first sealing plug 7, and the second opening is provided with a second sealing plug 8.
[0069] In order to firmly fix the sealing plug to prevent it from expanding under the action of internal pressure, the liquid medium heating device also includes an inlet side end cover 5 and an outlet side end cover 6. The inlet side end cover 5 is arranged at the end of the first end shell 3 away from the shell 1 and forms a limit for the first sealing plug 7, and it has an inlet joint avoidance hole 5.1. The outlet side end cover 6 is arranged at the end of the second end shell 4 away from the shell 1 and forms a limit for the second sealing plug 8, and it has an outlet joint avoidance hole 6.1. Obviously, the liquid medium heating device is assembled in the axial direction according to the inlet side end cover 5, the first end shell 3, the conductive sheet fixing seat 2, the shell 1, the conductive sheet fixing seat 2, the second end shell 4, and the outlet side end cover 6. The fixing method is to use four long screws 15 from both ends to fix the above components in sequence.
[0070] In the scenario of providing steam, the working pressure of the electric heating tube 16 is different according to the stage. The working pressure in the liquid heating stage is low, while the working pressure in the gas heating stage is high. In this example, there are three electric heating tubes 16, and the rated power of a single tube is set to 500W according to actual conditions. One of the electric heating tubes 16 is used to heat the liquid medium to produce a phase change, that is, to produce steam. The other two electric heating tubes 16 are used to heat steam. Since the phase change temperature is much lower than the temperature of the outlet steam, the pressure of the two electric heating tubes 16 at the end of the path is relatively large, and a larger control margin needs to be reserved, while the pressure of one electric heating tube 16 at the beginning of the path is relatively small, and a smaller control margin needs to be reserved. In order to better control the power, the aforementioned two electric heating tubes 16 and the other electric heating tube 16 are independently controlled. That is, one of the conductive sheets 11 is an integral structure and is connected to the ends of the three electric heating tubes 16, while the other conductive sheet 11 is a split structure, including a first conductive sheet 11.1 and a second conductive sheet 11.2. The first conductive sheet 11.1 is electrically connected to a conductive film on an electric heating tube 16 near the beginning of the medium flow direction, and the second conductive sheet 11.2 is electrically connected to the conductive films on two electric heating tubes 16 near the end of the medium flow direction. In this way, the three electric heating tubes 16 are controlled separately by two power supply circuits, which helps to improve the life of the electric heating tubes 16. It can be known that when the number of electric heating tubes 16 is two, four or more, the number of electric heating tubes 16 should also be allocated according to the heating conditions of the medium to achieve the purpose of segmented control, that is, the heating and phase change stage is controlled separately, and the heating gaseous medium stage is controlled separately.
[0071] In order to control the power more accurately, the liquid medium heating device further includes a first temperature sensor 12 and a second temperature sensor 13. The first temperature sensor 12 detects the inlet temperature, and the second temperature sensor 13 detects the outlet temperature. Compared with the method of controlling the power by only detecting the outlet temperature, this example can better determine the heating power and reduce energy consumption by the difference between the two temperatures.
[0072] The temperature sensor is fixed in the following manner: the first end shell 3 is provided with a first mounting seat 3.5 connected to the inlet joint 3.1, the second end shell 4 is provided with a second mounting seat 4.5 connected to the outlet joint 4.1, the first temperature sensor 12 is installed in the first mounting seat 3.5, and the second temperature sensor 13 is installed in the second mounting seat 4.5. The probe of the first temperature sensor 12 is inserted into the inlet joint 3.1 to obtain the inlet temperature data, and the probe of the second temperature sensor 13 is inserted into the outlet joint 4.1 to obtain the outlet temperature data. The temperature sensor is sealed and installed in the mounting seat through a sealing ring 14.
[0073] As an alternative, the number of the first channel 1.1 and the electric heating tube 16 can also be other combinations, such as two, three, or three for the former and two for the latter. It should be noted that when the number of the first channel 1.1 and the electric heating tube 16 are both odd numbers or even numbers, the inlet connector 3.1 and the outlet connector 4.1 are both arranged on the end shell on the same side, otherwise, they are arranged separately as described above. It can be known that according to the number of the two, the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure will also be adjusted accordingly, but the purpose is still to realize the series connection of the medium flow channel. Based on this concept, those skilled in the art can deduce and know the form and number of the corresponding structures of the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure, and the structure should be regarded as implicitly disclosed, so it will not be repeated.
[0074] The present invention also discloses an electrical device with the above-mentioned liquid medium heating device, in which the liquid medium is transported to the liquid medium heating device through a pipeline system with a pump, and is heated to the working temperature under the heating of the electric heating tube 16. Since this patent does not improve the components and structures of other electrical devices except the heating device, they are not described in detail.
