It has advantages such as small size, high heating power, fully automated control of the heating system, long service life, and high reliability.

[0003] Chinese patent document CN220043706U discloses an explosion-proof electric heater. The explosion-proof electric heater includes a heating rod and a junction box; the heating rod includes a heating section and a non-heating section connected together; the junction box contains terminals and wires, one end of the terminals is connected to the non-heating section of the heating rod, and the other end is connected to the wires. By adding a non-heating section to the end of the heating section of the heating rod, the terminals can be moved away from the heating section, placing them in a relatively low-temperature area. This helps reduce the aging rate of the terminals and wires, improves the reliability of the explosion-proof electric heater, reduces the risk of downtime for maintenance, and minimizes direct and indirect economic losses caused by downtime for maintenance.

[0004] The existing technologies mentioned above do not have good sealing and explosion-proof protection effects and cannot prevent explosive gases from entering the heating chamber and causing explosion damage to the heater. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of explosion-proof heater. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an explosion-proof heater, comprising a heater housing, an explosion-proof frame installed on the outer surface of the heater housing, a heating chamber provided inside the heater housing, an electric heating tube installed inside the heating chamber, first explosion-proof plates installed on both sides of the heater housing, a second explosion-proof plate installed on one side of the first explosion-proof plates, an explosion-proof cavity provided between the first and second explosion-proof plates, and an explosion-proof seal embedded inside the explosion-proof cavity.

[0007] Preferably, an expansion gap is provided between the explosion-proof seal and the explosion-proof cavity, and the explosion-proof seal is made of silicone rubber or fluororubber.

[0008] Preferably, the first explosion-proof plate and the explosion-proof frame are fixedly connected by a bolt assembly.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the gas control box is provided with an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe, and both the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are equipped with a switch valve.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention features an explosion-proof cavity inside the heater, connected by special explosion-proof plates. This ensures that even if an explosion occurs within the heating cavity, the flame and pressure will not propagate to the external environment. Simultaneously, explosion-proof seals made of elastic materials, including silicone rubber or fluororubber, form a tight seal between the explosion-proof plates. When the heater is subjected to vibration or temperature changes, the elastic seals automatically compensate for the gaps, maintaining good sealing performance and preventing explosive gases from entering.
