[0002] Electric heating film is a semi-transparent polyester film that can generate heat when electricity is applied. It is made by processing and hot-pressing special conductive ink and metal current-carrying strips between two layers of insulating polyester film.
[0003] Traditional flexible electric heating films are prone to delamination, oxidation or breakage of the conductive layer after repeated washing, resulting in uneven heating or failure. Some electric heating films encapsulated with non-woven fabric or ordinary polymer have poor water resistance, and water molecules can easily penetrate into the conductive layer, affecting the electric heating performance.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 3The flexible water-resistant electrothermal film in this embodiment includes a conductive heating layer 1. The conductive heating layer 1 is provided with a heating anti-detachment structure. The heating anti-detachment structure includes an insulating buffer layer 2 fixedly installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the conductive heating layer 1. A waterproof encapsulation layer 3 is fixedly installed on the side of the insulating buffer layer 2 away from the conductive heating layer 1. An anchoring anti-detachment plate 4 is fixedly installed inside the waterproof encapsulation layer 3. An anchoring connecting rod 5 is fixedly installed on the surface of the anchoring anti-detachment plate 4.
[0023] Among them, the conductive heating layer 1 is thermoplastic polyurethane, the insulating buffer layer 2 is polyimide, and the waterproof encapsulation layer 3 is silicone.
[0024] It should be noted that there are multiple anchor anti-detachment plates 4, which are evenly distributed inside the two waterproof sealing layers 3. The anchor connecting rod 5 is fixedly installed between the opposite surfaces of the two anchor anti-detachment plates 4, and the anchor connecting rod 5 passes through the conductive heating layer 1 and the insulating buffer layer 2.
[0025] The conductive heating layer 1 is equipped with a heating and conductive component, which includes a carbon nanotube 6 and a heating wire 7 fixedly installed inside the conductive heating layer 1.
[0026] Among them, carbon nanotube 6 is a multi-walled carbon nanotube, and heating wire 7 is a copper-nickel alloy heating wire with a spiral shape.
[0027] It should be noted that a mesh tube 8 is fixedly installed inside the conductive heating layer 1, and the heating wire 7 is fixedly installed inside the mesh tube 8. The mesh tube 8 is made of stainless steel wire mesh.
[0028] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0029] When the electrothermal film is working, current passes through the heating and conductive components inside the conductive heating layer 1, converting electrical energy into heat energy to achieve the heating function. The carbon nanotubes 6 have excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, enabling them to efficiently conduct current and disperse heat, resulting in more uniform heating of the electrothermal film. The spiral-shaped heating wire 7 increases its length, allowing more resistance wires to be accommodated in the same space, thus improving heating efficiency. The spiral shape also produces a more uniform heat distribution during heating. Furthermore, the spiral design allows the heating wire 7 to have pre-existing deformation allowance, reducing stress distribution during bending. To prevent localized breakage, the inner mesh tube 8 of the conductive heating layer 1 provides mechanical protection for the heating wire 7, extending its service life. When the heating film is subjected to external pressure or impact, the insulating buffer layer 2 acts as a buffer, reducing the impact on the conductive heating layer 1 and its internal heating and conductive components, thus lowering the risk of damage. The waterproof encapsulation layer 3 tightly wraps around the outside of the insulating buffer layer 2, forming a waterproof barrier that effectively prevents water molecules from penetrating. The anchoring anti-detachment plate 4 and the anchoring connecting rod 5 ensure a tight bond between the layers, forming a unified structure. During water washing, even if the heating film is subjected to external forces such as stretching or twisting, the anchoring anti-detachment structure effectively prevents the layers from separating, ensuring the stability and integrity of the heating film structure.
