[0002] Electric heating plates are a common type of electric heating device. The heating elements of existing electric heating plates are generally straight tubes or coils, and they are often used in electric kettles, frying pans, baking pans, and electric griddles.

[0003] With the increasing popularity of robotic vacuum cleaners, there is a growing demand for heating plates for cleaning the mop cloths. Since robotic vacuum cleaner mops consist of two disc-shaped cloths, using two heating coils directly would be bulky, costly, complex to control, and have low performance. Therefore, it is necessary to improve existing technology and provide an electrically heated heating plate. Utility Model Content

[0006] Furthermore, the heating element has a first heating power density in the middle region of the heating zone and a second heating power density in the middle connection portion, wherein the second heating power density is less than or equal to 60% of the first heating power density.

[0007] Furthermore, the heating plate and heating element are integrally formed by die casting or inlay stamping.

[0008] Furthermore, the two heating zones protrude outward to form arc-shaped bosses, and the heating tube is a straight tube. After the straight tube is bent inward in the heating zone, it fits into the inner cavity surface of the arc-shaped bosses.

[0009] Furthermore, the arc-shaped protrusion coincides with the edge of the disc-shaped cloth, so that the entire cloth can be heated, cleaned, and dried with each rotation of the disc-shaped cloth.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating plate body is provided with fixing and mounting holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the heating plate body has electrical component mounting holes for connecting heating electrical components, such as temperature control fuses, temperature sensors, or temperature control switches.

[0012] Furthermore, the temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor.

[0013] Furthermore, the heating plate is made of aluminum.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The electric heating plate provided by the present invention uses an electric heating tube that runs through two heating zones and the middle connecting part, which has the advantages of high heat conduction performance and low cost; by controlling the heating power of different sections of the straight tube differently, it can ensure that the heating zone is heated evenly, and the heating of the middle connecting part is significantly lower than that of the heating zone, which effectively prevents the aging of the components around the middle connecting part and improves safety and service life.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the high-performance heating plate structure according to an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the front structure of the high-performance heating plate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2The electric heating plate provided by this utility model uses a single straight or corrugated tube (still a straight tube in the horizontal projection plane) as the heating element instead of two heating elements, achieving uniform heating of both heating zones simultaneously, greatly saving costs and reducing the size of the heating plate. Since the heating element has a high power, especially if the middle part of the two heating zones heats up excessively, it can easily lead to aging of surrounding components over time, affecting the service life of the heating plate. Therefore, this utility model differentiates and controls the heating power of different segments of the heating element to ensure uniform heating in the heating zones, with the heating at the intermediate connection point being significantly lower than that of the heating zones. This achieves high-performance electric heating, effectively preventing aging of components around the intermediate connection point, and improving safety and service life. Specifically, the high-performance heating plate of this utility model embodiment includes a heating plate body and a heating element 1. The heating plate body includes two heating zones 2, with an intermediate connection point 3 between the two heating zones 2. The heating element 1 passes through the two heating zones 2 and the intermediate connection point 3, and the heating power of the heating element 1 in the heating zone 2 is greater than that in the intermediate connection point 3.

[0023] The electric heating plate provided by this utility model has a first heating power density in the middle region of the heating zone 2 and a second heating power density in the middle connecting part 3. The second heating power density is only less than 60% of the first heating power density.

[0024] The electric heating plate provided by this utility model has a heating plate body and an electric heating tube 1 integrally formed by die casting or inlay stamping, and the material can be aluminum, copper, or iron. The two heating zones 2 protrude outwards to form arc-shaped bosses. The electric heating tube 1 is a straight tube, which bends inwards in the heating zone 2 to form a roughly wavy shape, so as to tightly fit the inner cavity surface of the arc-shaped bosses and the intermediate connecting part 3; that is, the electric heating tube 1 bends along the direction of the inner cavity surface, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, but in the horizontal projection plane it is still a straight tube, such as Figure 3 As shown.

[0025] The electric heating plate provided by this utility model has an arc-shaped boss whose radius matches the radius of the disc-shaped cloth; the arc-shaped boss coincides with the edge of the disc-shaped cloth; in this way, the entire cloth can be heated, cleaned, and dried with each rotation of the disc-shaped cloth. While ensuring heating efficiency, it greatly reduces the volume occupied; it can be directly installed into existing robotic vacuum cleaners; in use, a water container can be placed on the arc-shaped boss, and a sealing ring can be installed next to the arc-shaped boss to ensure overall flatness. The heating plate body is provided with fixing mounting holes 4, the shape, position, and number of which can be set according to the installation structure requirements of the robotic vacuum cleaner. In addition, the inner side of the heating plate body is provided with electrical component mounting holes 5 for connecting heating electrical components, such as temperature control fuses, temperature sensors, or temperature control switches. The temperature sensor is preferably a negative temperature coefficient thermistor (NTC thermistor).

[0026] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the claims.
