[0037] The positioning notch 2.5 of the cover is arc-shaped and its opening direction is towards the opening direction of the open mouth 2.4. The positioning notch 3.3 of the connecting block is arc-shaped and its opening direction is away from the opening direction of the open mouth 2.4.
[0038] In this embodiment, the cover positioning notch 2.5 and the connecting block positioning notch 3.3 are respectively semi-circular arcs and arranged in front and behind, so that the heating tube positioning area can form a circular clearance and position the positioning step 1.2.
[0039] The outer shape of the cover positioning part 2.3 and the outer shape of the connecting block positioning part 3.2 are respectively matched with the outer shape of the cover part 2.1.
[0040] In this embodiment, the outer shape of the cover part 2.1 is a vertical trapezoid, and the outer shape of the connecting block positioning part 3.2 of the cover positioning part 2.3 is a corresponding vertical trapezoid, so that the cover 2 and the connecting block 3 have a better appearance after molding and assembly.
[0041] The cover fixing part 2.2 is a fixing hole and at least two are provided. The at least two cover fixing parts 2.2 are spaced apart at the upper and lower positions of the end of the cover part 2.1. The connecting block fixing part 3.1 is a flange and there are two of them. The two connecting block fixing parts 3.1 are bent together at the upper and lower positions of the connecting block positioning part 3.2 in the direction of the connecting block positioning notch 3.3. The connecting block fixing part 3.1 rests on the cover part 2.1 and is provided with a fixing mating hole. The fixing mating hole on the connecting block fixing part 3.1 corresponds to the cover fixing part 2.2 and the two are fixedly mated by fasteners.
[0042] In this embodiment, the connecting block positioning part 3.2 rests on the end of the cover part 2.1, while the connecting block fixing part 3.1 rests on the side of the cover part 2.1, and fasteners are used to fix the cover 2 and the connecting block 3 in the fixing hole of the connecting block fixing part 3.1 and the cover fixing part 2.2 to achieve the fixation between the cover 2 and the connecting block 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, a number of connection breaks are provided between the cover positioning part 2.3 and the cover part 2.1, and the cover positioning part 2.3 can be freely flipped on the cover part 2.1 through the number of connection breaks.
[0044] During assembly, the heating element 1 is placed inside the cover 2 through the end of the cover 2. At the same time, the connecting block positioning notch 3.3 is pre-positioned on part of the positioning step 1.2. Then, the cover positioning part 2.3 is flipped so that the cover positioning notch 2.5 is positioned on the remaining position of the connecting block positioning notch 3.3, so as to facilitate the assembly of the heating element 1 and routine maintenance and replacement.
[0045] The opening 2.4 has a cover body support flange 2.6 bent integrally at the top and bottom. The connecting block 3 is also provided with a connecting block support part 3.4. The connecting block support part 3.4 is a flange and is perpendicular to the connecting block positioning part 3.2.

[0046] Fastening holes 3.5 are also provided on the connecting block support part 3.4 or the cover support flange 2.6.
[0047] In this embodiment, the fastening hole 3.5 is provided on the connecting block support part 3.4. Since the cover support flange 2.6 and the connecting block support part 3.4 are adjacent and planar, a support plane can be formed between the cover support flange 2.6 and the connecting block support part 3.4. The heating component can be supported on electrical appliances such as disinfection cabinets, ovens, and steam ovens through this support plane. Then, the fasteners are used to act on the fastening hole 3.5 and the electrical appliances such as disinfection cabinets, ovens, and steam ovens to realize the installation of the heating component.
[0048] In addition, in this embodiment, the cover 2 and the connecting block 3 are integrally formed from metal materials. At the same time, in order to reduce production and processing costs, the cover 2 can be made of a metal material with a smaller thickness, while the connecting block 3, which plays a connecting and fixing role, is made of a metal material with a larger thickness than the cover 2.
