AI Technical Summary
When heating water, existing steam generators have low thermal efficiency due to the rapid water flow rate, and it is necessary to increase the power of the heating pipe or extend the length of the water pipe to improve the heating effect, but this increases the equipment materials and usage costs.
The flow-draining groove is arranged on the outside of the electric heating tube, and the flow-draining grooves are distributed in a spiral shape to form a heating water channel, which reduces the speed when the water flows through, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the electric heating tube to water.
By reducing the water flow rate, the steam generator's heating efficiency for water is improved, the need to increase the power of the electric heating pipe and the length of the water pipe is avoided, and the material and usage cost is reduced, while maintaining the flatness of the outer surface of the water pipe and the aesthetics of the product.

[0002] A steam generator is a device that heats water to boiling to produce steam and is often used in cooking, disinfection and other fields.
[0003] Steam generators are generally heated by electric heating devices, which usually include heating tubes and water pipes. Normally, water flows in a straight line between the water pipes and the heating tubes. The water flows relatively fast in this heating method, resulting in low thermal efficiency. It is usually necessary to increase the power of the heating tube or extend the length of the water pipe to achieve better heating effects, but this increases the equipment material cost and the cost of use.
[0004] Therefore, further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0007] A steam generator comprises an electric heating tube and a water pipe sleeved on the outer side of the electric heating tube. The outer side of the electric heating tube is provided with a guide groove, which is spirally distributed on the outer side wall of the electric heating tube. A heating water channel for water flow to pass through is formed between the guide groove and the water pipe.
[0008] As a specific solution, the electric heating tube is provided with inner connecting surfaces at both ends, and the water pipe is provided with outer connecting surfaces corresponding to the inner connecting surfaces at both ends, and the inner connecting surfaces are matched with the outer connecting surfaces in a liquid-tight manner.
[0009] As a specific solution, a convex rib is formed on the electric heating tube at a position corresponding to the heating water channel, and the convex rib is distributed on the outer wall of the electric heating tube in a spiral shape corresponding to the guide groove, and the convex rib is liquid-tightly matched with the inner side of the water pipe.
[0010] As a specific solution, the water pipe is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet, and the water inlet and the water outlet are respectively connected to the head and tail ends of the heating water channel.
[0011] As a specific solution, the water inlet and / or the water outlet is connected with a joint part, the head end of the joint part is connected and fixed to the water inlet or the water outlet, and the tail end thereof is extended outward.
[0012] As a specific solution, a connecting flange is provided at the head end of the joint portion, and the connecting flange is liquid-tightly matched with the inner side of the water inlet or the water outlet.
[0013] As a specific solution, bosses are provided on the water pipe at positions corresponding to the water inlet and the water outlet, the bosses protrude outward, and the joint portion abuts against the bosses.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0015] By setting guide grooves on the surface of the electric heating tube, the speed of the liquid can be reduced when passing through the heating water channel, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the electric heating tube for water. There is no need to increase the power of the electric heating tube and the length of the water pipe, thereby avoiding additional increases in the material cost and use cost of the product. At the same time, the outer surface of the water pipe can be kept smooth, and the overall product can be made more beautiful. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
