DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] Example 1

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a tubular PTC electric heater with a protective structure, which specifically includes a PTC tubular heater 1, a protective cover 2, a tube hole 3, a wire inlet 4, a central port 5, a protective shell 6, a flip cover 7, an end cover 8, a wire outlet 12, a conical rubber clamp 13, a partition 14 and a spiral tube 15;

[0022] Among them, a protective cover 2 is provided at one end of the tubular PTC heater 1 covered with wires, a pipe hole 3 is provided at an eccentric position on the top of the protective cover 2, and the pipe hole 3 is connected to the pipe opening at one end of the tubular PTC heater 1 covered with wires, and a wire entry port 4 corresponding to the wire outlet position of the tubular PTC heater 1 is opened on the protective cover 2, and a central opening 5 is opened on the plane where the wire entry port 4 is located, and a protective shell 6 is fixedly arranged on the protective cover 2, and the protective cover 2 and the protective shell 6 are connected through the central opening 5, and the wire outlet 12 is opened on the plane of the protective shell 6 away from the central opening 5, and the flip cover 7 is rotatably arranged at the larger opening on the outside of the protective shell 6 to cover the hole, and one end of the flip cover 7 is fixedly connected to the protective cover 2 by screws, and the end cover 8 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the protective cover 2 by screws, and cooperates with the pipe hole 3 to provide closed protection for the wires;

[0023] Among them, the conical rubber clamp 13 is fixedly arranged on the top of each outlet 12, and is in a three-claw shape inside the protective cover 2, and the outline is conical. The through hole part is used for the power line to pass through. The partition 14 is fixedly arranged in the protective cover 2 in a plane parallel to the outlet 12. The partition 14 is fixedly arranged in the plane parallel to the outlet 12, and there is a threaded hole corresponding to the outlet 12 one by one. The screw 15 is arranged on the partition 14 and is threadedly matched with the threaded hole. The screw 15 is shaped like a cup and is used to clamp and fix the wires with controllable tightness.

[0024] In the utility model, a tubular PTC heater 1 with a protective cover 2 is designed. The heater is used to protect the heater wires from being exposed to the outside, to prevent the external environment from affecting the inherent wires on the tubular PTC and affecting the normal operation of the tubular PTC or causing the maintenance and replacement of the tubular PTC. The original tubular PTC heater 1 is redesigned and modified to design the tubular PTC heater 1. The principle is as follows: the wires are installed through the end cover 8 and the flip cover 7, and some devices in the protective cover 2 are used. The staff inserts the wires distributed on the tubular PTC heater 1 into the protective cover 2 through the wire inlet 4, and the ends of the tubular PTC wires come out through the wire outlet 12. After closing the end cover 8 and the flip cover 7, the main body of the tubular PTC electric heater wires can be ensured to be in the closed space of the protective cover 2, so as to protect the main body of the wires from being affected by the external environment. In the protective cover 2, a cone-shaped The rubber clamp 13 is provided with a partition 14, and a spiral tube 15 is provided on the partition 14. The conical rubber clamp 13 is hollow and the opening is larger than the PTC electric heater wire. The conical rubber clamp 13 is in a three-claw shape in the protective cover 2, and the contour is conical. By rotating the spiral tube 15 on the partition 14, the spiral tube 15 is brought close to the conical rubber clamp 13. When the conical contour part of the conical rubber clamp 13 touches the inner wall edge of the spiral tube 15, the spiral tube 15 is constantly approached, and the inner wall of the spiral tube 15 is closed. The wall gradually presses toward the wider part of the conical rubber clamp 13, the three-claw part of the conical rubber clamp 13 is squeezed, and the hole of the hollow part of the conical rubber clamp 13 becomes smaller until it cooperates with and clamps the wire. When the screw tube 15 is reversed, the screw tube 15 moves away from the conical rubber clamp 13, the tube mouth becomes larger, and the wire end is not clamped. In this way, the screw tube 15 controls whether the conical rubber clamp 13 clamps the wire, so that the wire placed in the protective cover 2 can be freely pulled out, or the wire can be fixed to prevent the wire in the protective cover 2 from being pulled out.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, based on Example 1, it specifically includes a light rod 9, a movable clamp 10 and a screw 11. The light rod 9 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the central port 5, and the movable clamp 10 is symmetrically slidably arranged on the light rod 9. The screw 11 is threaded between the ends of the two movable clamps away from the light rod 10.

[0027] Although the central port 5 centralizes the scattered wires entering from the wire inlet 4 and leads them to the protective shell 6, it still appears too messy. Therefore, a simple device fixed by a screw 11 is provided at the central port 5 away from the protective shell 6. The staff first controls the movable clamp 10 by hand to clamp the bundle of wires. Since one end of the movable clamp 10 is a bare rod 9, the clamping degree cannot be controlled. Therefore, the screw 11 is used to pass one end of the two movable clamps 10 through and fix them. Then the staff can let go. In this way, the wires are concentrated into bundles at the central port 5, which is convenient for the staff to organize many wires. It can also prevent the staff from excessive pulling when performing related operations when organizing the wires later, thereby protecting the wires.

[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, based on Example 1, it specifically also includes a small staple 18 and a large staple 19. The small staple 18 is fixedly arranged beside the line entry 4 away from the centralized opening 5, and the large staple is symmetrically fixedly arranged between several small staples 18 away from the centralized opening 5 and the centralized opening 5.

[0029] The small staples 18 and the large staples 19 classify the electric wires and place them in order, so that the circuit conditions are clear at a glance when the staff is overhauling, which is convenient for the staff to overhaul.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, based on the embodiment 1, it specifically includes a winding disk 20, and the winding disk 20 is fixedly arranged in the protective shell 6.

[0031] When the wires are too long, the distance from the central port 5 to the outlet port 12 can be increased by winding the wires, so that the wires are arranged in order in the protective shell 6, the wires are arranged more beautifully and neatly, and the staff can conveniently classify and organize the wires.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, on the basis of Example 1, it specifically includes a protruding block 16 and a truncated cone 17. The protruding block is symmetrically arranged at one end of the tubular PTC heater 1 close to the protective cover 2, and the truncated cone 17 is symmetrically fixedly arranged on the outside of the plane where the wire inlet 4 of the protective cover 2 is located, and is fixedly matched with the protruding block 16. The protective cover 2 on the PTC heater is installed by matching the corresponding pipe openings, and its rotation cannot be restricted, which may affect the safety of the wires on the outside of the protective cover 2 at the wire outlet 12. In order to prevent its rotation, the tubular PTC electric heater is symmetrically provided with protruding blocks 16 at both ends close to the protective cover 2, and the outer side surface where the wire inlet 4 of the protective cover 2 is located is also symmetrically provided with a truncated cone 17 at the corresponding boss position. The truncated cone 17 and the protruding block 16 can be connected by screws, so that the rotation of the protective cover 2 is restricted to achieve the purpose of protecting the wires on the outside of the protective cover 2 at the wire outlet 12.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
