Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating element fixing technology, and in particular to a PTC heating device with a chamfered shell. Background Technology

[0002] PTC heaters are widely used in many industries due to their safety, reliability, and energy efficiency. Traditional PTC heaters typically consist of a PTC thermistor, conductor electrodes, sealant, powder, and various shaped fixing devices. While these components meet some usage requirements, they also have some significant shortcomings. The traditional method of using a single-sided fixing block to secure the PTC thermistor results in low heat transfer efficiency and high thermal resistance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a corner-cutting shell PTC heating device. While providing excellent electrical insulation for the PTC thermistor element, it can press the PTC thermistor element on both sides. At the same time, compared with the single-sided fixing of the fixing block, the thickness is reduced to improve heat transfer efficiency and reduce thermal resistance, so that the heat generated by the PTC thermistor sheet can be efficiently transferred to the external environment.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a chamfered PTC heating device, comprising:

[0005] Positive and negative electrode plates are used for power supply;

[0006] The PTC thermistor is equipped with the positive and negative electrode plates at its upper end and is powered through the positive and negative electrode plates. The PTC thermistor is configured as a heating element to generate heat after being powered on.

[0007] The heat transfer base is used to transfer the heat generated by the PTC thermistor and provides a stable support foundation for the entire device.

[0008] The corner-cutting shell is inverted U-shaped and is configured to embed the PTC thermistor sheet inside and then be fitted and pressed into the heat transfer base. This allows the PTC thermistor sheet to be pressed tightly by the corner-cutting shell on both sides, and to form a seamless and tight fixation between the positive and negative electrode sheets, the corner-cutting shell, and the heat transfer base, thereby reducing thermal resistance and improving thermal efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner wall of the chamfered sleeve matches the outer wall of the PTC thermistor sheet, so that the PTC thermistor sheet and the positive and negative electrode sheets are tightly attached during the pressing process, forming sufficient electrical contact.

[0010] Furthermore, the chamfered PTC heating device also includes an insulating adhesive, which is coated on the positive and negative electrode plates to achieve insulation.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper end of the chamfered sleeve is provided with a through hole for the positive and negative electrode plates to pass through.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower outer edge of the chamfered sleeve is chamfered to make it easier to fit and press into the heat transfer base, and to adapt to heat transfer bases of different shapes.

[0013] Furthermore, an insulating adhesive is applied between the chamfered sleeve and the heat transfer base.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0015] (1) This utility model uses the corner-cutting shell to press the PTC thermistor sheet and the positive and negative electrode sheets to form sufficient electrical contact. Compared with the pressing of the heat-conducting base and electrode sheets, the corner-cutting shell has a reduced thickness, thereby reducing thermal resistance. At the same time, the double-sided pressing allows the heat generated by the PTC thermistor sheet to be transferred to the external environment from two directions, so as to achieve higher thermal efficiency.

[0016] (2) This utility model achieves insulation between the heating device of the PTC heater and the heat transfer base by using insulating adhesive. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

[0024] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a chamfered PTC heating device, including:

[0025] Positive and negative electrode plates 1 are used for power supply;

[0026] The PTC thermistor 4 is disposed between the positive and negative electrode plates and is powered by the positive and negative electrode plates 1. The PTC thermistor 4 is configured as a heating element to generate heat after being powered on.

[0027] The heat transfer base 3 is used to transfer the heat generated by the PTC thermistor 4 and provides a stable support foundation for the entire device.

[0028] The chamfered housing 5, which is inverted U-shaped, is configured to embed the PTC thermistor 4 on its inner side and then fit and press it into the heat transfer base 3. This ensures that the PTC thermistor 4 is pressed tightly against both sides by the chamfered housing, creating a seamless and secure connection between the positive and negative electrode plates 1, the chamfered housing 5, and the heat transfer base 3. This reduces thermal resistance and improves thermal efficiency, allowing the heat generated by the PTC thermistor 4 to be efficiently transferred to the heat transfer base 3.

[0029] Furthermore, the inner wall of the chamfered sleeve 5 matches the outer wall of the PTC thermistor sheet 4 so that the PTC thermistor sheet 4 fits tightly with the positive and negative electrode sheets 1 during the press-fitting process, forming sufficient electrical contact.

[0030] Specifically, the chamfered PTC heating device also includes:

[0031] Insulating adhesive 2 is applied to the positive and negative electrode plates 1 to achieve insulation.

[0032] Specifically, the upper end of the chamfered sleeve 5 is provided with a through hole for the positive and negative electrode plates 1 to pass through.

[0033] Specifically, the lower outer edge of the chamfered sleeve 5 is chamfered so that the chamfered sleeve 5 can be more easily fitted into the heat transfer base 3 and pressed tightly, and can adapt to heat transfer bases 3 of different shapes.

[0034] Furthermore, insulating adhesive 2 is applied between the chamfered sleeve 5 and the heat transfer base 3.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
