Definitions

  • the invention relates to a radiant heater, in particular for use in heating glass ceramic hot plates, baking roasters or the like. as well as a method and a device for its production.
  • the heating coils are attached to insulating bodies for radiant heaters either by inserting them into the grooves of the insulating body, by fastening them on the surface of the insulating body with clips or by embedding the heating coil in a damp insulating body into which the heating coil is pressed and fixed there after drying.
  • This latter method has been shown to be very advantageous, but is relatively complex and requires a predominantly fibrous insulating material that has good mechanical strength, but is therefore somewhat lower in the thermal insulating properties.
  • This iso Lier bodies are therefore usually underlaid with a layer of an Aerosil, which, however, has good mechanical resistance and excellent electrical and thermal insulation properties, a lower mechanical strength.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a radiant heater and a method and a device for its production, in which disadvantages of known solutions are avoided and in which, in particular, embedding of the heating coils in the insulating body is possible with a good hold therein.
  • the insulating body of a radiant heater with heating coils partially embedded therein is preferably produced by filling the interior of the heating coil over a section of its cross-sectional area with the filler material which can be introduced into the interior of the heating coil and then applying the insulating material so that it is free of filler material Fills the space inside the heating coil, after which the filling material is then removed.
  • the filling material can be a flowable material, for example quartz sand.
  • the insulating material can be poured in dry form onto the heating coils lying on a suitable base, partially filled with the filling material, preferably a free-flowing material, in particular an airgel based on pyrogenic silica or aluminum oxide, optionally with fiber reinforcement and with binding agent, as the insulating material. and opacifiers is used.
  • a free-flowing material in particular an airgel based on pyrogenic silica or aluminum oxide, optionally with fiber reinforcement and with binding agent, as the insulating material. and opacifiers is used.
  • the insulating material can be pressed before the filling material is removed, so that it forms a relatively solid block, which under many conditions alone is sufficient to ensure the necessary strength.
  • the filling material has penetrated between the turns of the heating coils and partially enclosed them.
  • the shape of the part of the insulating body which forms the embedding and remains in the interior of the heating coil can also be determined by the size of the filling material in the interior of the heating coil and possibly also a certain shape with a concave or convex surface. This can also be done by designing the heating coil as an upstanding oval. It is thus possible to extend the pressing pressure even into the interior of the heating coil, without the heating coil itself being deformed thereby or the insulating body being additionally damaged if, for example, a heating coil is pressed into the dry, pre-pressed insulating body itself.
  • the resulting insulating body has, apart from a good definition of the heating coil, the advantage that part of its inner cross-sectional area is free of insulating material, so that the radiation conditions of the radiant heater are good and the insulating body is not unnecessarily thermally stressed or heated.
  • the insulating body can preferably be thermally cured after pressing. If necessary, this can also happen during the first use or during a test run. It can corresponding known curing agents are used. It is also possible to introduce a hardening agent into the filling material and to let it penetrate from there into the adjacent areas of the insulating material. In this case, the embedding points would preferably be hardened, which results in an ideal insulating body with increased strength in the area of the embedding, but otherwise the best thermal insulation properties. In the case of multi-component hardeners, only one component of this hardening agent could also be present in the filler material.
  • a preferred device for producing radiant heaters of the type described contains a tool in which the heating coils are partially accommodated in grooves and a device for partially filling a flowable or free-flowing filler material in the grooves and a pressing device for subsequent embedding pressing of the heating coil with the Insulating material.
  • the free-flowing material is preferably incompressible and forms a "counter-pressure stamp" located inside the heating coil, on which the insulating material can be firmly pressed.
  • a preferred radiant heater can be produced, which inside is filled with the insulating material over a section of its inner cross section by embedding it in the insulating material, whereby the heating coil is fixed to the insulating body.
  • the insulating material can particularly preferably consist of a free-flowing substance, in particular an airgel of the type already mentioned.
  • the radiant heater is particularly known for this is characterized in that the surface of the section of the insulating body lying inside the heating coil is the impression of the filler material which can be introduced into the inside of the heating coil.
  • the distance between the individual turns of the heating coil should be greater than the wire thickness so that a good penetration of the filler material on the one hand and the insulating material on the other hand is possible inside the heating coil and that the heating coil which holds the heating coil between the Insulating body webs extending through wire windings have a sufficient cross section.
  • Fig. 1 shows a device 11 which is arranged on a tool table or stand 12 and carries a tool 13 which has the shape of a plate with grooves 14 formed on its upper side, which have a substantially semicircular cross section.
  • the grooves run on the upper tool surface 15, for example in a spiral, zigzag or meandering shape, depending on how heating coils 16 are to be arranged on the surface of an insulating body.
  • the tool can have recesses in the edge area which, for example, form a peripheral edge of an insulating body.
  • Heating coils 16 are inserted into the grooves 14 and partially protrude from the grooves.
  • the proportion of the heating coil cross section that protrudes upward from the grooves, together with the groove depth, determines the height of the later embedding of the heating coils in an insulating body 21.
  • a filling material 17 which consists for example of quartz sand as the main constituent, is introduced into the grooves 14. It is also possible to use a material such as wax or stearin that is liquid when warm.
  • the filling material is preferably filled in so far that its surface is essentially flush with the upper tool surface 15. However, it can also be slightly above or below, and it can also take on a certain shape through appropriate introduction or after-treatment steps, for example a concave or convex shape, which then also determines the shape of the insulating body at this point. This could be done, for example, by shaking or other measures.
  • the shape of the grooves does not have to correspond exactly to the heating coils. It should only be such that the heating coils are guided well during processing. Around however, to avoid an external enclosure of the heating coils in the groove area; the grooves should be matched relatively precisely to the heating coils. A shaping of the grooves according to the individual turns should only be necessary in exceptional cases.
  • the filler material could also be introduced before the heating coils if, for example, the heating coils were introduced into the grooves from above by a vibration process under appropriate pressure. It would also do no harm if the filler material still grips under the heating coils, because the filler material acts just like a fixed tool stamp due to its incompressibility
  • An insulating material is poured onto the tool 13 prepared in this way, which is preferably an airgel based on pyrogenic silica or aluminum oxide and can optionally contain a fiber reinforcement. It contains conventional binders and opacifiers, for example ilmenite, iron oxide or the like.
  • the insulating material is very light and free-flowing and penetrates well between the turns of the heating filaments and fills the portion 20 of the interior of the heating filament not occupied by the filling material 17 up to the surface of the filling material.
  • This dry, pourable insulating material 21 is then pressed by a press ram 22 with an indicated, for example hydraulic, pressing device 23 against the tool 13.
  • the section 20 lying inside the heating coil is also compressed by insulating material being pushed through the windings.
  • a largely homogeneous body made of pressed dry insulating material is formed. It can then be heat treated to contain ther in the opacifiers or binders to let mix-hardening materials of known consistency take effect.
  • Their proportion and the degree of pressing depends on the requirements for the strength and, in particular, the abrasion resistance of the insulating body.
  • An additional partial hardening in the area of the embedding can be done by adding a hardening agent to the filler material 17, which is pressed out of the filler material during the pressing or also penetrates capillary into the adjacent parts of the insulating body. It is also possible to provide the insulating body with different proportions of hardening additives and to increase the dosage on the heating coils.
  • the dry-pressed insulating body 21 is removed from the device 11 by moving the device parts 13, 22 apart.
  • the filling material 17 trickles itself between the turns of the heating coils 16 or remains in the grooves from where it can either be used immediately or removed by shaking off, blowing off or suctioning off and, if necessary, can be used again after refurbishment.
  • Suitable as filling material are all free-flowing or to some extent flowable materials that are largely incompressible and cannot be displaced like a pure liquid or penetrate into the insulating material, for example due to the inherent friction of the individual particles from which they consist. Accordingly, the consistency will usually be between “dusty” and “granular”, or liquid when using wax or stearin.
  • FIG. 2 and 3 show the finished radiant heater in its position of use with the direction of radiation upwards
  • a glass ceramic plate 23 is shown, under which the radiant heater 24 is arranged and shines through it upwards.
  • the radiant heater is also suitable for other applications, for example for heating ovens etc.
  • the radiator can also be clearly distinguished from radiators produced differently, because normally in the region of the section 37 located in the interior of the heating coil, its surface 26 has a different structure than the surface 35 formed by the tool 13. This usually begins Structured surface 26 is already slightly outside of the heating coil 16 and forms a small edge 27 there. Depending on the degree of filling of the filling material 17, the surface 26 is slightly higher or possibly also lower than the surface 35. If the grooves 14 are just filled, Before the pressing begins, the surface 26 is somewhat higher because the filling material settles somewhat during the pressing.
  • the surface 26 and possibly also the surface 35 can be designed in a simple manner as desired.
  • the heating coil in the region of a rib running parallel to it or also crossing it, or of a longitudinal projection. This can be achieved by appropriate design of the surface of the tool 13 and the grooves and by a special shape of the bed.
  • the pouring could take place through pouring channels or nozzles running along the grooves, which produce a specific pattern of the filling material inside the heating coil.
  • a concave shape of the section 17 which is adapted to the curvature of the turns of the heating coil can be achieved.
  • the area under a heating coil could also be poured a little less high through a covering through the applied heating coil, so that the insulating material comes to be somewhat higher at this point and therefore encloses it ß especially allows the heating coil.
  • the surface 26 in FIG. 2 would have a corrugated shape, which descends between the heating coils.
  • the insulating body section 37 preferably comprises only the lower part, for example a third to half the circumference of the turns of the heating coil 16. This is sufficient for a good fixing. It is important that considerable portions of the heating coil and accordingly a section 36, which preferably occupies more than half of the heating coil cross section, are free of the insulating body in order to be able to radiate freely.
  • the embedded and non-binding parts change depending on the nature of the insulating material and the strength and usage requirements for the radiant heater. The use of oval heating coils arranged upright is particularly favorable.
