[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the top of the pipe 1 is provided with a filter mechanism 7 for filtering liquid. The filter mechanism 7 includes a feed pipe 701 connected to the top of the pipe 1, a baffle plate 702 on the top of the feed pipe 701, a water inlet pipe 703 fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate 702, a filter screen 707 inside the feed pipe 701, and a pipe cap 708 inserted into the top of the water inlet pipe 703.

[0033] Pull the cap 708 out of the inlet pipe 703, and then pour the liquid into the feed pipe 701 through the inlet pipe 703. The filter screen 707 inside the feed pipe 701 can filter impurities in the liquid to prevent impurities from entering the pipe 1 and affecting the heating efficiency. The filtered liquid enters the pipe 1 through the feed pipe 701. Start the electric heating tube 3. The electric heating tube 3 can heat the liquid inside the pipe 1. When it is necessary to drain the liquid inside the pipe 1, simply open the outlet pipe 8.

[0034] like Figure 5 As shown, the top of the feed pipe 701 is provided with a support plate 704. Both the support plate 704 and the baffle plate 702 are provided with a plurality of second threaded holes 705. The two connected second threaded holes 705 are internally threaded with the same second bolt 706.

[0035] Rotate the second bolt 706 to unscrew it from the two second threaded holes 705, then pull the baffle plate 702 to remove it from the top of the feed pipe 701. This will make it easier for staff to clean the impurities on the filter screen 707 and prevent impurities from clogging the filter screen 707 and affecting the filtration efficiency.

[0036] like Figure 4As shown, the rotating mechanism 4 includes limiting cylinders 401 respectively disposed inside the pipe 1 and the sealing plate 5. Two connecting rods 402 are fixedly provided on the side of the two limiting cylinders 401 that are close to each other. One end of the two connecting rods 402 located on the same side is fixedly provided with the same first cleaning plate 403. One side of the first cleaning plate 403 is in contact with the inner wall of the pipe 1. A second cleaning plate 404 is provided on one side of the first cleaning plate 403. Both ends of the second cleaning plate 404 are fixedly connected to the two connecting rods 402. One side of the second cleaning plate 404 is in contact with the protective pipe 2.

The rotation of the limiting cylinder 401 can drive the connecting rod 402 to rotate. The connecting rod 402 can drive the first cleaning plate 403 and the second cleaning plate 404 to rotate. The rotation of the first cleaning plate 403 can clean the dirt on the inner wall of the pipe 1, and the rotation of the second cleaning plate 404 can clean the dirt on the outer wall of the protective pipe 2, thereby improving the heating efficiency.

[0039] like Figure 6 As shown, a disassembly mechanism 6 is provided on one side of the pipe 1 to facilitate the disassembly of the sealing plate 5. The disassembly mechanism 6 includes a first fixing plate 601 provided on one side of the sealing plate 5 and a second fixing plate 602 fixed on one side of the pipe 1. Both the first fixing plate 601 and the second fixing plate 602 are provided with a plurality of first threaded holes 603. The two connected first threaded holes 603 are internally threaded with the same first bolt 604.

[0040] Rotate the first bolt 604 to turn it out from the two first threaded holes 603. Then pull the sealing plate 5 to pull it open from one side of the pipe 1. The sealing plate 5 can pull the protective pipe 2 out from the inside of the pipe 1, making it convenient for staff to clean the dirt out of the inside of the pipe 1 and avoid affecting the next use.

[0041] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
