Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an improved electric heater and an electrical appliance for heating food or water. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, common electrical appliances used for heating food or water typically consist of an electric heater and a container. The electric heater is placed below the container to heat both the container and the food or water inside. The heater and container are separate entities. The container is often made of glass, such as a glass kettle or a non-stick glass pan. These appliances have the following drawbacks: 1) When filled with food or water, the glass container becomes very heavy, making it difficult to control when held on the heater, increasing the risk of collision and breakage. 2) Uneven heating by the heater can cause large localized temperature differences, making the glass container prone to breakage. 3) Dry heating can also cause large localized temperature differences, making the glass container susceptible to breakage.

[0017] Effect 2: The graphene composite board is flexible and has a certain degree of elasticity, which provides a certain buffering effect and avoids direct collision between the vessel and the electric heater, thus preventing the glass vessel from breaking easily.

[0018] Effect 3: Graphene composite panels have an energy storage function. When the electric heater is turned off and no longer generates heat, the graphene composite panels still store heat, which will not dissipate quickly, thus providing a certain degree of heat preservation and being energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an electrical appliance for heating food or water, including an electric heater 1 and a container 2 for holding food or water. The electric heater 1 is placed below the container 2. The feature is that a graphene composite plate 3 is laid between the electric heater 1 and the container 2. The electric heater 1 is powered on and generates heat, and the heat is evenly and quickly transferred to the graphene composite plate 3. The container 2, placed on the graphene composite plate 3, absorbs the heat and heats the food or water inside.

[0031] In this invention, a graphene composite plate 3 is laid between the electric heater 1 and the vessel 2. The electric heater 1 generates heat and rapidly and evenly transfers the heat to the graphene composite plate 3. The graphene composite plate is a superconducting material with a heat transfer efficiency 10 times that of ordinary materials. Therefore, it can quickly and evenly absorb the heat generated by the electric heater and heat it uniformly, avoiding the technical problem of glass vessels placed on it easily breaking due to large local temperature differences caused by uneven heating of the electric heater. Furthermore, the graphene composite plate is flexible and has a certain degree of elasticity, providing a cushioning effect and preventing direct collision between the vessel and the electric heater, thus preventing the glass vessel from easily breaking. Thirdly, the graphene composite plate has an energy storage function. When the electric heater is turned off and no longer generating heat, the graphene composite plate still stores heat, preventing it from dissipating quickly and providing a certain degree of insulation, thus saving energy and being environmentally friendly.

[0032] Preferably, the vessel 2 is made of glass or stainless steel.

[0033] Preferably, the vessel 2 is made into a glass kettle or a glass non-stick pan.

[0034] Preferably, such as Figure 3 As shown, the graphene composite plate 3 is directly installed on the bottom surface of the vessel 2, and the structure is simple.

[0035] Preferably, such as Figure 2 As shown, the graphene composite plate 3 is directly installed on the top surface of the electric heater 1, and the structure is simple.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] This embodiment provides the specific structure of the electric heater 1 described in Embodiment 1, as follows: Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the electric heater 1 includes a substrate 10, an insulating and thermally conductive layer 40, an electric heating coating 20, electrode plates 30, and a protective layer 50. The insulating and thermally conductive layer 40 covers one side of the substrate 10. The electric heating coating 20 is laid on the insulating and thermally conductive layer 40, which is located between the substrate 10 and the electric heating coating 20. Two electrode plates 30 are respectively attached to the two ends of the electric heating coating 20. The electrode plates 30 are connected to a power supply line 60. The protective layer 50 covers the electric heating coating 20 to isolate it from air. The substrate 10 is made of metal or alloy material, and a grounding lead 70 is directly electrically connected to the substrate 10. The melting point of the metal or alloy material is greater than 800 degrees Celsius. The insulating and thermally conductive layer 40 serves both insulating and thermally conductive functions. The heat generated by the electric heating coating 20 after being energized is transferred to the substrate 10 through the insulating and thermally conductive layer 40. The insulating and thermally conductive layer 40 also isolates the substrate 10 and the electric heating coating 20 to prevent leakage.
