Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electric heating tubes, in particular to an anti-dry-burning electric heating tube. Background Art

[0002] Dry burning of the heater means that the heating tube of the electric heater is still powered for heating when there is no liquid or the liquid level is lower than the heating tube. The hazards of dry burning of the heater are as follows: it is easy to directly cause damage to the heater; it causes the failure of the heater sealing device, thereby causing the leakage of the medicine, causing more serious personal injury or casualties and property loss; it causes the liquid storage tank to burn, thereby causing the leakage of the medicine, causing more serious personal injury or casualties and property loss; it causes the electric heating tube to burn red, thereby causing a fire, causing more serious personal injury or casualties and property loss; when the heater is severely dry burning, it may cause the heater to leak due to insulation damage, which can easily cause dangerous accidents of electric shock.

[0003] Commonly used electric heaters on the market may be equipped with a so-called anti-dry-burn protection function. Its principle is to add a single-head sealed protection tube next to the electric heating tube, and place a temperature switch in the protection tube. It relies on the heat generated when the heater is dry-burned, and slowly radiates to the temperature switch in the protection tube. When the temperature exceeds the action value of the temperature switch, the temperature switch will send an over-temperature action signal of the switching quantity, and must rely on the connection of an external circuit to play a little protective role. The heater itself does not have a self-protection function. Therefore, improving an anti-dry-burn electric heating tube with a self-protection function has become an urgent problem to be solved.
