These elements offer low thermal resistance and high heat transfer efficiency, making them automatic, constant-temperature, and energy-efficient electric heaters. Their outstanding safety feature is that they will not produce the surface "reddening" seen in electric heating tube heaters, which can pose safety risks such as burns or fires, under any application.
[0003] During the use of the common PTC heating elements on the market, since the heating principle of the PTC heating elements is to connect with the electrodes fixed on both sides of the PTC ceramic piece, when the PTC ceramic piece needs to be heated, the voltage across the PTC ceramic piece is increased, and the voltage is difficult to control. Excessive voltage will break down the insulation layer inside the PTC heating element, causing leakage and reducing the service life of the device. Utility Model Content

[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0007] The inner wall of the protective shell is fixedly connected to the first insulating layer, the inner wall of the first insulating layer is fixedly connected to the second insulating layer, the inner wall of the second insulating layer is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the first electrode, and the surface of the second insulating layer is fixedly connected to the first insulating plate.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] The connecting wire passes through the first insulating layer and extends to the inside of the first insulating plate. The end of the connecting wire is fixedly connected to a conductive wire, and the conductive wire passes through the protective shell and extends to the outside of the protective shell.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] A movable ring is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting plate, and the movable ring is located below the cover plate. A groove is provided on the upper surface of the cover plate. A guide rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective shell, and the guide rod is located inside the movable ring.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] A second through hole is formed on the surface of the connecting plate, an insulating silicone block is fixedly connected to the surface of the second insulating plate, and the surface of the insulating silicone block is in contact with the surface of the first insulating plate.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] A heat dissipation mechanism is installed on the surface of the protective shell. The heat dissipation mechanism includes a fixing plate. The surface of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective shell. The inner wall of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to a heat dissipation plate.
[0016] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] Compared with the prior art, this PTC constant temperature heating element is through the first electrode, the second electrode, the second insulating plate, and the overvoltage protector. During use, one end of the first electrode and the second electrode is fixedly connected with a connecting wire, and the connecting wire extends into the first insulating plate fixed inside the protective shell. The cover plate is pressed down so that the connecting plate installed below the cover plate is inserted into the first through hole. The second insulating plate is fixed on the lower surface of the connecting plate. The surface of the first insulating plate contacts the insulating silicone block fixed on the surface of the second insulating plate. The insulating silicone block fills the gap at the connection. At this time, the overvoltage protector fixedly connected to the upper surface of the second insulating plate contacts the connecting wire, so that the internal circuit is connected, and the current can flow from the wire fixed at the end of the connecting wire into the first section of the connecting wire, and then flow through the overvoltage protector, and then flow into the second section of the connecting wire, and then flow into the first electrode, so that the overvoltage protector fixed on the surface of the first electrode The connected PTC ceramic piece is energized and generates heat. When the voltage at both ends of the wire is too large and exceeds the threshold of the overvoltage protector, the built-in fuse of the overvoltage protector blows, and the inside of the device is in a short-circuit state. Compared with conventional devices, during use, since the heating principle of the PTC heating element is through communication with the electrodes fixed on both sides of the PTC ceramic piece, when the PTC ceramic piece needs to be heated, the voltage at both ends of the PTC ceramic piece is increased, and the voltage is difficult to control. Excessive voltage will break down the insulating layer inside the PTC heating element, causing leakage and reducing the service life of the device. When in use, the overvoltage protector fixed on the surface of the second insulating plate can be inserted between the two connecting wires, so that when the voltage passed through the device is too large, the circuit is disconnected, which protects the first insulating plate and the second insulating plate inside the device and improves the service life of the device.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, this PTC constant temperature heating element is equipped with a guide rod, a movable ring and a connecting plate. During use, the movable ring fixed on the surface of the connecting plate is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod to limit the movable ring so that the connecting plate fixed with the movable ring can only move in the vertical direction. After the fuse inside the overvoltage protector is blown, the cover plate can be pulled upward to make the movable mechanism rise. The second insulating plate inside the movable mechanism causes the overvoltage protector to rise from the inside of the protective shell during the rising process, so that the fuse inside the overvoltage protector can be easily replaced, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
