[0043] The heating tube of the existing dry heater needs to be folded in half and hydraulically formed during the processing, and a long straight round tube is processed into a long straight oval tube body after being folded in half. Since the heating tube is provided with a heating wire and is filled with magnesium oxide powder, during the hydraulic forming process, the external force squeezes the tube and the magnesium oxide powder in the heating tube, causing mechanical damage to the resistance wire in the heating tube, which is easy to cause the resistance wire to be damaged in advance during use. The existing technology has the problem that the heating tube processing process is complicated and the resistance wire is easy to break.
[0044] Based on this, the utility model proposes a heating tube 1, which is intended to simplify the processing technology and reduce the risk of wire breakage without bending the electric heating tube as a whole. The structure of the heating tube 1 is described below in the form of an embodiment.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown, the heating tube 1 includes a tube body 11 and two heating elements 12 .
[0046] The tube body 11 has a first end and a second end opposite to each other; two heating elements 12 are arranged side by side in the tube body 11, each heating element 12 includes a heating section 121 and a first lead-out rod 122 and a second lead-out rod 123 respectively arranged at both ends of the heating section 121, the two first lead-out rods 122 are electrically connected inside the first end, and the two second lead-out rods 123 extend out of the second end respectively to form two wiring terminals.
[0047] In this embodiment, the tube body 11 serves to install the heating element 12 and conduct the heat of the heating element 12. It can be understood that the tube body 11 and the heating element 12 are insulated to prevent the leakage problem caused by the electrical conduction between the heating element 12 and the tube body 11, and at the same time, the tube body 11 can quickly conduct the heat inside it to the outside. Optionally, the tube body 11 can be a metal tube or a non-metallic tube with good thermal conductivity. The tube body 11 itself can be an insulating material or a non-insulating material. When it is a non-insulating material, it can be isolated and insulated from the heating element 12 by filling the inside of the tube body 11 with insulating material. Optionally, the cross-sectional shape of the tube body 11 can be circular, semicircular, square, triangular or other special-shaped shapes. In practical applications, the tube body 11 can be set as a circular tube that is easy to form.
[0048] The two heating elements 12 are arranged side by side in the tube body 11. It can be understood that the two heating elements 12 are arranged at intervals in the tube body 11. The heating element 12 includes a heating section 121 and a first lead-out rod 122 and a second lead-out rod 123. The heating section 121 can be a resistance wire structure with higher heating efficiency. The two heating sections 121 are arranged in parallel and at intervals. The first lead-out rod 122 and the second lead-out rod 123 act as wire leads, wherein the first lead-out rod 122 of the two heating elements 12 are electrically conductive to electrically connect the two heating sections 121, and the two second lead-out rods 123 extend from the second end of the tube body 11 to form two wiring terminals, which are respectively a positive wiring terminal and a negative wiring terminal, for electrically connecting to an external power supply component to realize the power-on heating function of the two heating sections 121 in the tube body 11. It can be seen that the two second lead-out rods 123 of the two heating elements 12 extend from the same end of the tube body 11, without the need to perform an oil pressure operation on the tube body 11, which simplifies the process and reduces mechanical damage to the tube body 11 and the resistance wire.
[0049] In addition, the present embodiment realizes the electrical conduction function of the two heating sections 121 by electrically connecting the two first lead-out rods 122. Since the resistance wire is usually made of metal or alloy material and has a certain elasticity, compared with the solution of directly bending the resistance wire, the two first lead-out rods 122 in the present embodiment can support and limit the two heating sections 121, prevent the resistance wire from deforming and causing uneven heating temperature, and avoid contact between the resistance wire and the inner wall of the tube body 11, thereby ensuring electrical safety.
[0050] In practical applications, the first lead-out rod 122 can be a conductive rod, a wire, a conductive sheet or other conductive structures. It can be understood that the heating section 121 is a resistance wire, which is spiral-shaped. The first lead-out rod 122 has a connection end. From the middle of the first lead-out rod 122 to the connection end, the cross-sectional area of the first lead-out rod 122 gradually decreases, so that the connection end forms a cone, which is conducive to the spiral resistance wire being sleeved on the connection end, increasing the contact area between the first lead-out rod 122 and the resistance wire, and ensuring the electrical connection between the first lead-out rod 122 and the resistance wire. Optionally, the connection method of the second lead-out rod 123 and the heating section 121 can refer to the connection method of the first lead-out rod 122 and the heating section 121, which will not be repeated here.
[0051] In actual application, the tube body 11 is filled with magnesium oxide powder with good thermal conductivity. The compactness of magnesium oxide powder is related to the thermal conductivity. In the related technology, in order to realize the overall folding and extrusion of the heating tube 1, the magnesium oxide powder filled inside needs to be in a loose state. The heat transfer efficiency of loose magnesium oxide powder is poor, which will cause the internal heating wire to overheat and dry burn and break. In this embodiment, there is no need to bend the heating tube 1 as a whole, so there is no need to reduce the compactness of the magnesium oxide powder. In this way, the compactness of the magnesium oxide powder can be guaranteed, the thermal conductivity efficiency can be improved, and then the heating wire can be prevented from overheating and dry burning, thereby reducing the occurrence of failures.
[0052] It should be noted that the two first lead-out rods 122 are electrically connected inside the first end of the tube body 11, so that the two first lead-out rods 122 will not be exposed or extend outside the tube body 11. Compared with the solution in the related art that the two first lead-out rods 122 are extended to the outside of the tube body 11 for electrical connection, the heating tube 1 of this embodiment only needs to perform a normal sealing process (the sealing itself requires insulation), and there is no need to additionally consider the insulation problem of the conductor being exposed or extending outside the tube body 11, and there are no additional problems regarding the connection of the external insulation structure and the temperature resistance of the material. In other words, the process of the heating tube 1 of this embodiment is simpler and the production efficiency is higher.
[0053] In the heating tube 1 of the utility model technical solution, two heating elements 12 are arranged side by side in the tube body 11, and the heating element 12 includes a heating section 121 and a first lead-out rod 122 and a second lead-out rod 123 respectively arranged at both ends of the heating section 121. By electrically connecting the two first lead-out rods 122 inside the first end of the tube body 11, the two second lead-out rods 123 respectively extend out of the second end of the tube body 11 to form two wiring terminals for being electrically connected to the power supply outside the tube body 11, thereby realizing the normal heating function of the two heating elements 12 in the tube body 11. In this embodiment, the two second lead-out rods 123 of the heating element 12 are extended from the same end of the tube body 11, so that there is no need to perform hydraulic folding operation on the tube body 11, which simplifies the processing technology and reduces the mechanical damage to the tube body 11 and the heating element 12. At the same time, it is convenient to control the outer diameter of the tube body 11, and the processing accuracy is higher. The gap between the inner wall of the heating tube 1 and the heater sleeve 2 is greatly reduced, which can ensure that the heat of the heating tube 1 is transferred to the sleeve in time and heat exchange with water is carried out, thereby ensuring the life of the heating tube 1. In addition, by electrically connecting the two first lead-out rods 122 inside the first end of the tube body 11, there is no need to consider the insulation problem of the conductor being exposed or extending outside the tube body 11, which further simplifies the processing technology and improves production efficiency.
[0054] Furthermore, the electrical connection method of the two first lead-out bars 122 can be determined according to actual conditions.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 4, the two first lead-out rods 122 are welded and fixed. It is understandable that, considering that the two first lead-out rods 122 are spaced apart from one end connected to the heating section 121, the two first lead-out rods 122 can be bent toward each other at one end away from the heating section 121, so that the two first lead-out rods 121 are in contact, and then fixed by welding. Optionally, resistance welding or argon arc welding can be used.
[0056] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 5 , the two first lead-out rods 122 are electrically connected through the electrical connector 13. Optionally, the electrical connector 13 can be a metal conductive part or a non-metallic conductive part. In practical applications, considering the convenience and reliability of connection, the electrical connector 13 is selected from metal conductive parts. Metals usually have high strength and hardness, can withstand certain mechanical stresses, and ensure the firmness and stability of the connection. Generally, the electrical connector 13 is made of cast iron. The electrical connector 3 can be connected to the two first lead-out rods 122 by welding, screwing or winding. In practical applications, considering the convenience and reliability of processing, the two first lead-out rods 122 are welded and fixed to the electrical connector 13. Optionally, resistance welding or argon arc welding can be used.
[0057] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 , the two first lead-out rods 122 are bent and connected as one body. In this embodiment, the two first lead-out rods 122 are set as an integral structure, so there is no need to perform an additional process of electrically connecting the two first lead-out rods 122, which further simplifies the processing technology. In practical applications, a conductor can be bent to form two first lead-out rods 122, and the ends of the two first lead-out rods 122 away from the bend are respectively connected to the two heating sections 121.
[0058] It should be noted that, in actual application, the electrical connection method of the two first lead-out rods 122 may not be limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and other embodiments may also be adopted, which are not limited here.
[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 The heating tube 1 further includes a first insulating plug 151 disposed at the first end of the tube body 11 and sealing the tube opening. The first insulating plug 151 wraps the electrical connection parts of the two first lead-out rods 122 .
[0060] It can be understood that in actual application, the tube body 11 is filled with an insulating heat conductive material 16 (such as magnesium oxide powder, etc.), and the first insulating plug 151 of this embodiment serves to seal the tube opening at the first end of the tube body 11 to prevent the insulating heat conductive material 16 (such as magnesium oxide powder, etc.) inside the tube body 11 from leaking.
[0061] In this embodiment, the first insulating plug 151 is wrapped around the electrical connection portion of the two first lead-out rods 122 so that the two first lead-out rods 122 will not be exposed or extended from the tube body 11, thereby ensuring the insulation effect at the first end of the tube body 11. When the heating tube 1 is used in the heater sleeve 2 of a dry heater or in the inner tank of a water heater, no conductive leakage fault will occur.
[0062] In addition, this embodiment directly uses the first insulating plug 151 for sealing the tube opening of the tube body 11 to insulate the two first lead-out rods 122 without adding an additional insulating structure to wrap the two first lead-out rods 122, thereby saving material costs and simplifying the processing technology.
[0063] It is understandable that the first insulating plug 151 can be completely accommodated inside the tube body 11, or can be partially located inside the tube body 11 and partially located outside the tube body 11, as long as it can seal the tube mouth of the tube body 11 and wrap the two first lead-out rods 122. As an example, considering the difficulty and cost of the processing technology, the first insulating plug 151 in this embodiment is accommodated inside the tube body 11. During processing, the first insulating plug 151 can be made of hot-melt material such as glass. After the heating element 12 and the insulating heat conductor 16 are set in the tube body 11, the hot-melt material is filled into the first end, and then the first insulating plug 151 structure is formed by high-temperature heat melting. At the same time, the first insulating plug 151 fixes the two first lead-out rods 122.
[0064] Furthermore, if Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 , the end surface of the first insulating plug 151 facing away from the heating element 12 is flush with the end surface of the first end of the tube body 11. This arrangement makes the end surface of the first end of the heating tube 1 flush, so that it is easier to control the length of the heating tube 1. When the heating tube 1 is used in the heater sleeve 2, the gap between the end of the first end of the heating tube 1 and the inner wall of the heater sleeve 2 is easier to control, thereby improving the size matching accuracy of the heating tube 1 and the heater sleeve 2.
[0065] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 The heating tube 1 also includes a second insulating plug 152 which is arranged at the second end of the tube body 11 and seals the tube opening. The second insulating plug 152, the first insulating plug 151 and the tube body 11 form a sealed cavity. The two heating sections 121 are located in the sealed cavity. The two second lead-out rods 123 are passed through the second insulating plug 152.
[0066] In this embodiment, the second insulating plug 152 seals the opening of the second end of the tube body 11 to prevent the insulating heat conductor 16 (such as magnesium oxide powder, etc.) from getting wet and prevent the insulating heat conductor 16 inside the tube body 11 from leaking. At the same time, the second insulating plug 152 also supports and fixes the two second lead rods 123.
[0067] Specifically, Figure 3 The second insulating plug 152 is provided with two spaced apart positioning holes 1521 , and the two second lead-out rods 123 respectively pass through the two positioning holes 1521 located at the second end.
[0068] It can be understood that the first insulating plug 151 at the first end is used to fix the two first lead-out rods 122, and the two positioning holes 1521 at the second end are used to fix the two second lead-out rods 123, so as to position the two heating sections 121, avoid displacement of the two heating sections 121, and ensure safety. In this embodiment, by arranging the two positioning holes 1521 at intervals, the two heating sections 121 can be arranged at intervals, and the gap between the two heating sections 121 can be ensured, avoiding the two heating sections 121 from contacting each other to cause safety hazards.
[0069] Furthermore, if Figure 3 , the positioning hole 1521 and the corresponding heating section 121 are coaxially arranged. Optionally, the two positioning holes 1521 are arranged in parallel, so that the two heating sections 121 are arranged in parallel and opposite to each other, avoiding contact between the two heating sections 121.
[0070] Optionally, the positioning hole 1521 is interference-fitted with the second lead-out rod 123 to enhance the sealing performance of the tube body 11 .
[0071] It can be understood that the second insulating plug 152 can be completely accommodated inside the tube body 11, or can be partially located inside the tube body 11 and partially located outside the tube body 11, as long as the tube mouth of the tube body 11 can be blocked. As an example, considering the difficulty of the processing technology and the cost and other factors, the second insulating plug 152 in this embodiment is accommodated inside the tube body 11. During processing, the second insulating plug 152 can be made of hot-melt material such as glass. After the heating element 12 and the insulating heat conductor 16 are arranged in the tube body 11, the hot-melt material is filled into the second end, and then the second insulating plug 152 structure is formed by high-temperature heat melting. At the same time, the second insulating plug 152 fixes the two second lead rods 123.
[0072] Furthermore, if Figure 3 The end surface of the second insulating plug 152 facing away from the first end is flush with the end surface of the second end of the tube body 11.
[0073] It can be understood that in actual application, in order to ensure the electrical safety of the two connection terminals of the heating tube 1, an insulating wrapping piece can be provided on the two second lead-out rods 123 extending out of the tube body 11. In this embodiment, the end face of the second insulating plug 152 facing away from the first end is flush with the end face of the second end of the tube body 11, so that the insulating wrapping piece can be connected to the second insulating plug 152 and the tube body 11 at the same time, thereby further improving the insulation effect at the second end of the heating tube 1.
[0074] Furthermore, in order to ensure wiring safety, the creepage distance of the two second lead-out bars 123 needs to be increased as much as possible to prevent short circuit. When used, the distance between the two second lead-out bars 123 can be gradually expanded in the direction away from the tube body 11. Optionally, the two second lead-out bars 123 roughly form a "V"-shaped structure.
[0075] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 The sealed cavity is filled with an insulating heat conductor 16 , which isolates the two heating elements 12 and the heating element 12 from the tube wall of the tube body 11 .
[0076] The insulating heat conductor 16 can transfer the heat of the heating section 121 to the tube wall of the tube body 11, which is conducive to the transfer of heat from the heating section 121; furthermore, the insulating heat conductor 16 can isolate the two heating sections 121 to prevent the two heating sections 121 from contacting each other and causing safety hazards. At the same time, the insulating heat conductor 16 can isolate the heating element 12 and the inner wall of the tube body 11 to prevent the heating element 12 from contacting the inner wall of the tube body 11 and causing the risk of leakage. Generally, the insulating heat conductor 16 is magnesium oxide powder, which has good insulation and thermal conductivity, can effectively isolate the current inside the heating tube, and transfer the heat of the resistance wire to the tube body 11 in time, playing the role of insulation and heat conduction. Powdered magnesium oxide powder can form a stable support structure in the heating tube, so that the heating section 121 of the heating tube 1 is well fixed and supported. This helps to maintain the relative position between the two heating sections 121 and prevent accidental damage to the heating section 121 due to vibration or displacement.
[0077] It can be understood that compared with the heating tube 1 in the prior art, the heating tube 1 in the embodiment of the utility model simplifies the processing flow, and does not require process flows such as folding and oil pressure forming. The straight tube design facilitates the addition of magnesium oxide powder, so that the internal magnesium oxide powder filling density is high, and the heat of the resistance wire can be conducted outward in time, reducing the impact of the high temperature environment on the resistance wire and ensuring the life of the resistance wire.
[0078] The utility model also proposes a dry heater, such as Figure 1 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 8The dry heater comprises a heater sleeve 2, a mounting seat 3 and a heating tube 1. The specific structure of the heating tube 1 refers to the above embodiment. Since the dry heater adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here. Among them, one end of the heater sleeve 2 is closed and the other end is open; the mounting seat 3 is connected to the open end of the heater sleeve 2 and is open at the position corresponding to the heater sleeve 2; the heating tube 1 is arranged in the heater sleeve 2, and the terminal 123 of the heating tube 1 is arranged outside the heater sleeve 2.
