It requires 12 sets of ceramic substrates, which consumes a lot of energy, affects the range, and has a high cost.

Single corrugated strips and double corrugated strips are respectively provided on both sides of the PTC heating elements inside the plastic bracket. A stamped terminal is provided at the top of the plastic bracket and between each pair of PTC heating elements. The stamped terminal is connected to the plastic bracket by a rivet.
[0009] As a priority, the three sets of PTC heating components (4) and the two sets of stamped terminals are arranged from right to left as PTC1+, PTC2-, PTC3+, PTC4- and PTC5+.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the PTC heating element of the PTC1+ includes an insert PTC electrode plate bracket, which is composed of an electrode plate and a plastic bracket.
[0011] As a preferred feature, the insert PTC electrode plate support has six slots on one side for placing PTC plates and ceramic substrates.
[0012] As a preferred option, an insulating film is provided on the other side of the insert PTC electrode plate support.
[0013] Preferably, one side of the insulating film is adhered to the insert PTC electrode plate support, and the other side of the film is close to the aluminum tube.
[0014] Preferably, one end of PTC1+ is connected to PTC2-, and a heating element is provided between PTC1+ and PTC2-;
[0015] One end of the PTC3+ is connected to the second heating element, and the other end of the second heating element is connected to the PTC4- and the third heating element respectively;
[0016] The other end of the heating element three is connected to the PTC5+.
[0017] As a preferred option, the two negative terminals of PTC2- and PTC4- are not connected in parallel, so that PTC2- can be used with PTC1+, and PTC4- can be used with PTC3+ and PTC5+.
[0018] As a preferred option, both the side of the first plastic shell and the bottom of the second plastic shell are provided with PU sponge.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By placing a PTC sheet and a ceramic substrate on one side of the PTC electrode plate bracket and attaching an insulating film to the other side, a positive electrode is formed. The negative electrode is formed by a double corrugated strip and an impact terminal through rivets. The three positive electrodes and two negative electrodes form a circuit to achieve operation.
