Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power tools, and in particular to a heating element assembly and a hot air gun. Background Technology

[0002] A hot air gun is a heating tool used to heat air to create a hot airflow. It has multiple functions, including removing old paint from metal surfaces, removing self-adhesive stickers, heating plastic tubing to make it bend, drying damp wood, heating packaging films and tubes to shrink, removing rust, heating polyethylene materials used for joining metals to shrink, and heating materials to soften for welding. It can also be used to weld or remove components using the hot airflow blown from the heating element.

[0003] Currently, the heating wire holders on the market all have straight channels, resulting in a short airflow path within the channel. This leads to insufficient heating time for the air, resulting in low exhaust air temperature and low thermal efficiency. Consequently, the desired working effect cannot be achieved, and the working efficiency of the hot air gun is reduced. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and effectively solve the problem that the flowing air quickly dissipates into the air after passing through the heating support channel, thus providing a more efficient and convenient hot air gun. This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A heating element assembly for an air heating device includes a support and a heating element. The support has an air inlet, an air outlet, and a channel connecting the air inlet and the air outlet. The heating element is disposed within the channel. The channel extends along a predetermined smooth curve, such that the length of the channel is greater than the longitudinal length of the support. Air is heated by the heating element when passing through the channel. The curved channel increases the length of the channel, thereby improving the hot air heating efficiency.

[0006] Furthermore, the number of channels is 2 to 10, and the multiple channels are evenly distributed.

[0007] Furthermore, the cross-section of the channel is always circular.

[0008] Furthermore, the support is made of ceramic or mica, which have higher heat resistance.

[0009] Furthermore, the channels are independently set up and not connected to each other, and hot air enters from the air inlet and is blown out from the air outlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating element is in the form of a cluster or a coil.

[0011] Furthermore, the channel is constructed in a spiral shape.

[0012] Furthermore, the heating element includes a tightly wound section, the length of which is less than the length of the channel.

[0013] Furthermore, the angle between the air inlet and the air outlet is 20°~120°.

[0014] A hot air gun includes a housing, and a hot air device for generating hot air is provided inside the housing. The hot air device includes a heating core assembly, and a hot air pipe is provided at the front end of the housing. The heating core assembly is located inside the hot air pipe.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This invention features a curved heating channel with heating elements disposed within it. By increasing the length of the channel, the air outlet distance of the hot air gun is increased, thereby improving heating efficiency. The simple structure makes operation more convenient and greatly improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description
