[0019] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a membrane heating device includes an electric heating plate 1 and heating fins 3. The electric heating plate 1 includes a heating substrate 11 and an electric heating film 12 disposed on the heating substrate 11. The heating fins 3 are installed on one or both sides of the electric heating plate 1 to dissipate the heat generated by the electric heating film 12.
[0021] The electric heating film 12 is a metal heating film layer. The electric heating film 12 includes, from top to bottom, an encapsulating insulating layer, a heating resistance layer 122, and a bottom insulating layer 121, and a conductor layer 123 disposed between the encapsulating insulating layer and the bottom insulating layer 121 and connected to the heating resistance layer 122. The bottom insulating layer 121 is disposed on the heating substrate 11. The heating resistance layer is made of conductive paste, and the electric heating film is manufactured using a non-co-fired process. The conductive paste generates heat directly through the Joule effect, achieving an energy conversion efficiency of over 95%, while PTC's is approximately 80-85%. The conductive paste is uniformly coated, avoiding localized high temperatures caused by poor contact in the PTC ceramic sheet. Existing PTC start-up times require over 30 seconds, while the electric heating plate 1 has a start-up speed of 3-5 seconds, resulting in a faster start-up speed.
[0022] The encapsulating insulating layer can be made of ceramic material and sintered at high temperature to protect the conductive circuit from scratches and impacts. The heating resistor layer is made of precious metals such as ruthenium and its oxides and is sintered at high temperature to generate heat when electricity is applied. The heating resistor layer can achieve high-power heating. The conductor layer is made of precious metals such as silver, palladium, and platinum and is sintered at high temperature. It has low resistivity and does not generate heat, and is used to connect the heating resistor and provide external input solder joints. The bottom insulating layer is made of ceramic material and is sintered at high temperature to act as an insulating medium between the heating resistor and the electric heating substrate 55 to ensure basic insulation. The heating substrate 11 is made of stainless steel plates such as SUS430, SUS444, and SUS445 and is used to support the electric heating film 12.
[0023] To facilitate production and assembly, the membrane heating device also includes a finned substrate 2. One end of the heating fin 3 is disposed on the finned substrate 2, and the heating fin 3 is fixed to the electric heating plate 1 via the finned substrate 2. The finned substrate 2 is conveniently fixed to the electric heating plate 1, making the fixing of the heating fin 3 simpler, improving production efficiency, and making the heating fin 3 less prone to deformation.
[0024] To further protect the heating fins 3 at both ends, the fin substrate 2 is U-shaped, and the heating fins 3 are located inside the fin substrate 2.
[0025] To facilitate the installation of adjacent membrane heating device arrays and improve the strength of the membrane heating device, further protecting the heating fins 3, a connecting substrate 4 is also included. The connecting substrate 4 is located at the other end of the heating fins 3 and connects to the U-shaped fin substrate 2 to form a fin frame, which wraps the heating fins 3 inside. This effectively prevents the heating fins 3 from being deformed by stress during turnover and assembly with the electric heating plate 1. After assembly, the heating fins 3 can maintain their position well, increasing their strength and adapting to the complex working conditions of automobiles, thus improving reliability and stability.
[0026] Two electric heating films 12 are provided, and they are respectively located at both ends of the heating substrate 11. By providing two electric heating films 12 on the heating substrate 11, the reliability can be effectively improved. When a fault occurs inside one of the electric heating films 12, the entire film heating device will not fail.
[0027] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, an electric heater for an electric vehicle includes a membrane heating device, a mounting frame 51, a mounting base 55, and a controller. The mounting frame 51 is a rectangular frame and is mounted on the mounting base 55. The membrane heating devices are installed inside the mounting frame 51 and arranged in an array to form a heater. The controller is installed inside the mounting base 55 and is electrically connected to the membrane heating devices.
[0028] The top and bottom of the mounting bracket 51 are provided with slots, and the slots are provided with elastic conductive sheets. The conductive sheets are connected to the controller through wires. The two ends of the electric heating plate 1 are respectively inserted into the slots at the top and bottom of the mounting bracket 51. The positive and negative leads of the electric heating film 12 are in contact with the conductive sheets, so as to realize the conduction between the electric heating film 12 and the controller.
[0029] The technical principles of this utility model have been described above with reference to specific embodiments. These descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model in any way.
