Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0026] A circular heater includes: a heat-conducting plate 1, an elastic fastener, and a heating element 2.

[0027] The heat-conducting plate 1 is arranged in an arc shape, and there are at least two heat-conducting plates 1. At least two heat-conducting plates 1 are connected to form a circle, and adjacent heat-conducting plates 1 are connected by a detachable buckle 4.

[0028] The elastic fastener is fixedly disposed on the inner side wall of the heat-conducting plate 1. There are at least two elastic fasteners, and the at least two elastic fasteners are spaced apart along the arc direction of the heat-conducting plate 1.

[0029] The heating component 2 includes a long strip-shaped heat-conducting shell 17, which is installed on the inner side of the heat-conducting plate 1 and snapped between two adjacent elastic fasteners. The heat-conducting shell 17 is elastically clamped by the elastic fasteners on both sides of the heat-conducting shell 17. The length direction of the heat-conducting shell 17 is set along the length direction of the heat-conducting plate 1. Multiple ceramic heating elements 19 are provided inside the heat-conducting shell 17. The material of the ceramic heating elements 19 is from the prior art.

[0030] The circular heater of this invention is installed in the center of the molding tube. The heat from the ceramic heating element 19 is transferred to the heat-conducting plate 1 through the heat-conducting shell 17, and then used to heat the molding tube of the injection molding machine. At least two heat-conducting plates 1 are detachably connected to form a circle, and the heating component 2 is installed and fixed on the heat-conducting plate 1 by elastic fasteners. The detachable connection facilitates the installation and disassembly of the circular heater of this invention.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the elastic fastener includes two spring tabs 3 protruding from the inner wall of the heat-conducting plate 1. The spring tabs 3 are arranged along the length of the heat-conducting plate 1, and the two spring tabs 3 are respectively inclined relative to the corresponding heat-conducting shell sidewall.

[0032] The corresponding spring pieces 3 on both sides of the heat-conducting shell 17 are inclined towards the heat-conducting shell 17 and abut against the heat-conducting shell 17, thereby clamping the heat-conducting shell 17 by the elastic force of the spring pieces 3.

[0033] In the preferred technical solution, two spring pieces 3 are bent into an arc shape and installed.

[0034] After the spring piece 3 is bent, the side that contacts the heat-conducting shell 17 is arc-shaped, which makes it easy to directly insert the heat-conducting shell 17 between the two spring pieces 3.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of heat dissipation fins 5 protrude from the outer side wall of the heat-conducting plate 1.

[0036] The heat dissipation fins 5 accelerate the heat dissipation on the heat-conducting plate 1, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the forming tube.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the detachable buckle 4 includes a plug-in portion 12 and a plug-in piece 15. The plug-in portion 12 and the plug-in piece 15 are respectively disposed on both sides of the same heat-conducting sheet. The outer end of the plug-in portion 12 extends inward to form a socket 13. The two sides of the socket 13 are elastic. The two sides of the outer end of the socket 13 are provided with a first limiting protrusion 14. The plug-in piece 15 is matched with the socket 13. The two sides of the outer end of the plug-in piece 15 are provided with a second limiting protrusion 16 that matches the limiting protrusion.

[0038] When two adjacent heat-conducting plates 1 are spliced ​​together, the plug-in part 12 on one heat-conducting plate 1 is connected to the plug-in piece 15 on the other heat-conducting plate 1. The plug-in piece 15 is inserted into the socket 13 of the plug-in part 12, so that the second limiting protrusion 16 on the surface of the plug-in piece 15 abuts against the inner end of the first limiting protrusion 14 of the socket 13, thereby limiting the connection and making the plug-in part 12 and the plug-in piece 15 firmly connected.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the detachable buckle 4 includes a first elastic hook and a second elastic hook, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the heat-conducting plate 1. The first elastic hook includes a first elastic arm 6 fixedly connected to the side of the heat-conducting plate 1, and a first barb 8 protrudes from the first elastic arm 6. The second elastic hook includes a second elastic arm 7 fixedly connected to the side of the heat-conducting plate 1. The positions of the second elastic arm 7 and the first elastic arm 6 are staggered and correspond to each other. A second barb 9 protrudes from the outer end of the second elastic arm 7, and the protrusion direction of the second barb 9 is opposite to that of the first barb 8 and matches the first barb 8.

[0040] When two adjacent heat-conducting plates 1 are spliced ​​together, the first elastic hook on one heat-conducting plate 1 is connected to the second elastic hook on the other heat-conducting plate 1. During splicing, the two first elastic arms 6 and the second elastic arms 7 are intersected, and the first barb 8 and the second barb 9 are hooked together, thereby connecting the first elastic hook to the second elastic hook.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting hole 10 is provided through the first elastic arm 6, and a threaded hole corresponding to the connecting hole 10 is provided on the second barb 9, and a bolt passes through the connecting hole 10 and connects with the threaded hole.

[0042] The two heat-conducting plates 1 are further secured by bolting the first elastic hook and the second elastic hook together, thus preventing the first elastic hook from detaching from the second elastic hook.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the heat-conducting shell 17 is provided with two electrode plates 18 arranged along the length of the heat-conducting shell 17, and multiple ceramic heating plates 19 are sandwiched between the two electrode plates 18. The two electrode plates 18 are respectively connected to the positive electrode wire and the negative electrode wire. The heat-conducting shell 17 is also provided with an insulating film 20 to wrap the two electrode plates 18 and the multiple ceramic heating plates 19. Insulating silicone is provided at both ends of the heat-conducting shell 17 for sealing.
