Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an instant electric water heater. Background Technology

[0002] Current technology, specifically Chinese patent 201620683425.1, describes an instantaneous combined heating element, comprising a shell, a thick-film instantaneous heating element inserted into the shell, a central screw inserted into the heating element, and end caps sealing the bottom and top of the shell. The central screw has a rotating groove at its end, which causes the sidewall of the central screw end to gradually thicken axially. The end cap has an annular flange extending into the heating element. The annular flange extends into the groove and radially presses against the sidewall of the central screw end, causing it to tightly adhere to the inner wall of the heating element. In other words, the annular flange extending into the groove converts axial displacement into radial displacement, driving the outer wall of the groove to tightly adhere to the inner wall of the heating element, thus fixing the central screw inside the heating element. The problems are: it produces scale and wastes residual heat on the outer surface of the heating element. Utility Model Content
