Description

Anwendungsgebiet und Stand der TechnikField of application and state of the art

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Strahlungsheizkörpers mit einer Trägerschale und einer darin eingelegten Isolierschicht, auf der ein Heizleiter befestigt ist, sowie einen derartigen Strahlungsheizkörper.The invention relates to a method for producing a Radiant heater with a support shell and one in it inserted insulation layer, on which a heating conductor is attached is, and such a radiant heater.

Aus der DE 27 29 930 A ist eine Strahlungs-Heizeinheit für Glaskeramik-Elektrokochgeräte bekanntgeworden, bei der in einer Trägerschale ein oder mehrere Isolierschichten aus nicht oder schwach verdichtetem Schüttmaterial liegen. Auf diese Schichten wird eine Platte aus faserigem Isoliermaterial gelegt, auf der durch Einbetten im Naßzustand Heizwendeln festgelegt sind. Die Platte wird von einem umlaufenden Rand niedergehalten. Hier ist die Befestigung der Heizleiter in idealer Weise vorgenommen, jedoch ein zweischichtiger Aufbau nötig. DE 27 29 930 A is a radiation heating unit for Glass ceramic electric cooking devices have become known, in which one or more insulating layers from a carrier shell loose or slightly compacted bulk material. On these layers become a sheet of fibrous insulating material placed on the heating coils by embedding in the wet state are set. The plate is made by a revolving Edge held down. Here is the attachment of the heating conductor ideally done, but a two-layer Construction necessary.

Aus der DE 28 06 367 A ist ein Strahlungsheizkörper bekanntgeworden, bei dem ein schüttfähiges Isoliermaterial in eine Trägerschale eingefüllt und mit einem Stempel verdichtet wird, so daß sich eine Oberfläche bildet, auf der Heizwendeln mittels Drahtklammern festgeheftet werden. Die Oberfläche braucht dabei nicht eben zu sein.A radiant heater has become known from DE 28 06 367 A, in which a pourable insulating material in a Carrier shell filled and compressed with a stamp so that a surface forms on the heating coils can be stapled with wire clips. The surface need not be level.

Ein ähnlicher Aufbau mit in tiefen Rillen eingebetteten Heizwendeln ist aus der EP 35 280 B bekanntgeworden, wobei eine untere, dünne Schicht aus schüttfähigem Isoliermaterial direkt in die Trägerschale eingepreßt wird, während darüber eine dickere Schicht aus mit anorganischem Kleber gebundenem Aluminiumsilicat darüberliegt, die somit den Heizleiter "festkleben" kann.A similar structure with embedded in deep grooves Heating coils have become known from EP 35 280 B, wherein a lower, thin layer of pourable insulating material is pressed directly into the carrier shell while over it a thicker layer of inorganic adhesive Aluminum silicate lies above it, which is the heating conductor can "stick".

Ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Strahlungsheizkörpers gemäß dem ersten Teil des Anspruchs 1 und ein Strahlungsheizkörper gemäß dem ersten Teil des Anspruchs 5 ist aus DE-U-9 419 922 bekannt.A method of making a radiant heater according to the first part of claim 1 and a Radiant heater according to the first part of the claim 5 is known from DE-U-9 419 922.

Um eine stabile Lage der Isolierschichten zu gewährleisten, sind die Oberfläche der unteren Schicht bzw. die untere Fläche der oberen Schicht jeweils voneinander weggewölbt.To ensure a stable position of the insulation layers, are the surface of the lower layer or the lower one Surface of the upper layer arched away from each other.

Ein mehrschichtiger Isolierungsaufbau ist nicht nur aufwendig, sondern auch bezüglich seiner Isolierwirkung einem einschichtigem Aufbau zumindest dann unterlegen, wenn eine der Schichten aus weniger gut wärmedämmendem Material besteht. Deswegen wird angestrebt, möglichst mit einer Schicht aus bestens wärmedämmendem Material auszukommen. Dabei handelt es sich um schüttfähiges Isoliermaterial, das zum Zusammenhalt entsprechend verpreßt wird.A multilayer insulation structure is not only complex, but also in terms of its insulating effect inferior to a single-layer structure at least if one the layers consist of less good thermal insulation material. That is why the aim is to use one layer if possible to get by with the best thermal insulation material. there it is pourable insulating material that for Cohesion is pressed accordingly.

Aufgabe und LösungTask and solution

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren und einen damit hergestellten Strahlungsheizkörper zu schaffen, der bei einfacher Herstellbarkeit und großer Wirksamkeit der Isolierung eine einwandfreie und gleichmäßige Einbettung des Heizleiters ermöglicht.The object of the invention is a method and a so to produce radiant heaters, which at simple manufacture and great effectiveness of the insulation perfect and even embedding of the Heating conductor allows.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren nach Anspruch 1 und einen Strahlungsheizkörper nach Anspruch 5 gelöst. Die Herstellung der gesamten Isolation aus schüttbarem hochtemperaturbeständigem Wärmedämm-Material als eine vorgefertigte Tablette ermöglicht die Herstellung in einer größen- und formmäßig genau bemessenen Form, wobei vor allem sichergestellt werden kann, daß nach der Verpressung des Isoliermaterials die Oberfläche der Tablette eben ist. In diese ebene Oberfläche lassen sich die Heizleiter, die in einem im übrigen ebenen Stempel in Nuten aufgenommen sind, aus denen sie mit ihren Befestigungsfüßen hervorstehen, so einpressen, daß die Füße jeweils gleich tief in die Oberfläche eingedrückt werden und dementsprechend auch der herausstehende Teil stets gleich breit ist, wenn dies beabsichtigt ist.This object is achieved by a method according to claim 1 and a radiant heater according to claim 5 solved. The production of the entire insulation from pourable high temperature resistant thermal insulation material as one Prefabricated tablet enables production in one size and form precisely measured form, especially can be ensured that after pressing the The surface of the tablet is even. In This flat surface can be used for the heating conductors that are in an otherwise flat stamp is received in grooves, from which they protrude with their mounting feet, so press in so that the feet are each equally deep in the surface be pressed in and accordingly the protruding one Part is always the same width if this is intended is.

Bei der Einpressung der Isolierschicht unmittelbar in die Trägerschale ließ sich dies nicht verwirklichen. Die als Blechteller hergestellte Trägerschale hatte meist einen von Natur aus konvexen Boden. Hinzu kam, daß die Isolation sich aufgrund radialer Druckspannung auch von sich aus nach oben wölbte. Drückte man in diese nach oben gewölbte Oberfläche die Befestigungsfüße ein, so war entweder die Befestigung im Randbereich unvollkommen oder im Mittelbereich zu tief, so daß die abstrahlende Fläche der Heizleiter zu gering wurde.When the insulation layer is pressed directly into the Carrier shell could not do this. As The sheet metal tray usually had one of Nature from convex floor. Add to that the isolation itself due to radial compressive stress also upwards by itself arched. You pressed into this curved surface the fastening feet, either the fastening was in Marginal area imperfect or too deep in the central area, see above that the radiating area of the heating conductor was too small.

Man konnte auch nicht den Stempel wölben, weil die Wölbung der Wärmedämmschicht unvorhersehbar und ungleichmäßig war und außerdem eine gewölbte Form der die Heizleiter tragenden Oberfläche eine unzulässige Vergrößerung der Bauhöhe des Strahlungsheizkörpers bedeuten würde. You couldn't arch the stamp because of the curvature the thermal barrier coating was unpredictable and uneven and also a curved shape of the heat conductors Surface an impermissible increase in the overall height of the Radiant heater would mean.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird sowohl die Herstellung des Wärmedämmformkörpers als auch die Anbringung der Heizleiter vorzugsweise in einer separaten Form außerhalb der Trägerschale vorgenommen und die so vorbereitete, mit dem Heizleiter bestückte einstückige Tablette in den leeren Blechteller eingelegt. Dabei stört ein konvexer Boden des Blechtellers keinesfalls, weil dadurch eher eine zusätzliche Luft-Isolierschicht entsteht. Die Tablette ist einstückig und vorzugsweise auch einschichtig, könnte jedoch auch als mehrschichtig verpreßt ausgebildet sein.According to an advantageous embodiment The invention is both the production of the molded thermal body as well as the attachment of the heating conductor preferably in a separate form outside the carrier shell made and the so prepared with the heat conductor Loaded one-piece tablet into the empty tin plate inserted. A convex base of the sheet metal plate interferes with this by no means, because it creates an additional layer of air insulation arises. The tablet is in one piece and is preferred also single-layer, but could also be multi-layered be pressed.

Eine sichere und kippfreie Anbringung kann dadurch sichergestellt werden, daß die Trägerschale in ihrem Randbereich eine gegenüber dem Boden erhöhte, ringförmige Auflageschulter besitzt, auf der ein ggf. entsprechend abgesetzter Rand der Tablette aufliegt.This ensures a safe and tilt-free attachment be that the carrier shell in its edge area ring-shaped support shoulder raised against the floor has on which a correspondingly offset edge of the Tablet is resting.

Bei den Heizleitern kann es sich vorzugsweise um ein dünnes gewelltes Band aus Heizleitermaterial handeln, das aufrechtstehend auf dem Isolierkörper befestigt wird, indem es mit an das Band angeformten Befestigungsfüßen, die in Abstand voneinander vorstehen, aber ggf. auch über die ganze Heizleiterlänge durchgehen und/oder durch Lochungen unterbrochen sein können, eingepreßt sind. Diese sind entsprechend der Wellung des Bandes gewölbt und bilden somit spatenförmige und durch ihre Wölbung gestaltfeste Befestigungselemente, die auch in die fertiggestellte Tablettenoberfläche eingedrückt werden können.The heating conductors can preferably be a thin one corrugated band of heating conductor material act upright is attached to the insulator by using it the tape integrally formed mounting feet that are spaced protrude from each other, but possibly also over the entire length of the heating conductor go through and / or interrupted by perforations can be pressed. These are according to the Corrugation of the band arched and thus form spades and through their curvature, form-fitting fasteners that also pressed into the finished tablet surface can be.

Diese und weitere Merkmale gehen außer aus den Ansprüchen auch aus der Beschreibung und den Zeichnungen hervor, wobei die einzelnen Merkmale jeweils für sich allein oder zu mehreren in Form von Unterkombinationen bei einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung und auf anderen Gebieten verwirklicht sein und vorteilhafte sowie für sich schutzfähige Ausführungen darstellen können, für die hier Schutz beansprucht wird.

Zur Herstellung eines Strahlungsheizkörpers 11 (Fig. 4) wird ein schüttbares Isoliermaterial 31 in eine in Fig. 1 und 2 gezeigte Form 12 eingefüllt und ggf. zum Vergleichmäßigen glattgestrichen. Die Form hat eines der Außenformen des Strahlungsheizkörpers etwa angepaßte Gestalt, muß mit dieser jedoch nicht genau übereinstimmen. Die Formausnehmung 33 kann vielmehr von der endgültigen Form, die das darin hergestellte Produkt haben soll, so abweichen, daß das Produkt nach seiner Verpressung und unter Berücksichtigung aller weiteren Zwischenschritte schließlich die gewünschte Endform erhält.To produce a radiant heater 11 (Fig. 4) a pourable insulating material 31 into one in FIGS. 1 and 2 Form 12 shown filled and possibly for comparison smoothed out. The shape has one of the outer shapes of the Radiant heater approximately adapted shape, must with this but do not match exactly. The mold recess 33 can rather of the final form, which is what it produces Product should differ so that the product according to its Pressing and taking into account all further intermediate steps finally gets the desired final shape.

Bei dem Isoliermaterial handelt es sich um ein Kieselsäure-aerogel, das pyrogen hergestellt ist und im unverpreßten Zustand eine staubförmige Konsistenz hat. Dieses Kieselsäure-aerogel ist normalerweise mit Zusatzstoffen, wie Trübungsmitteln, die die Strahlungsdurchlässigkeit vermindern, Bindemitteln und/oder Verstärkungsmitteln zur Erhöhung der mechanischen Festigkeit, beispielsweise Fasern, vermischt. Es ist jedoch erwünscht und ein Vorteil der Erfindung, daß das separate Wärmedämm-Formteil faserfrei hergestellt werden kann.The insulating material is a silica airgel, the pyrogenic is manufactured and in the uncompressed Condition has a dusty consistency. This silica airgel is usually with additives such as opacifiers, which reduce radiation transmission, binders and / or reinforcing means to increase the mechanical Strength, for example fibers, mixed. It is however desirable and an advantage of the invention that the separate Thermal insulation molding can be made fiber-free.

In die Form kann ein Preßstempel 13 eingefahren werden, der das lose Schüttmaterial so verdichtet, daß eine handhabbare Tablette entsteht, die jedoch nicht soweit verdichtet ist, daß sie ihre guten Wärmedämmeigenschaften verlöre. Außer durch die Gestaltung der Formausnehmung kann auch durch die Gestaltung des Preßstempels, ggf. in Abweichung von der ebenen Form der Preßfläche 14, dafür gesorgt werden, daß das entstehende, im folgenden auch als Tablette bezeichnete, Wärmedämmformteil 15 eine ebene Oberfläche hat.A press ram 13 can be inserted into the mold the loose bulk material compacted so that a manageable Tablet is formed, but it is not compressed as much, that it would lose its good thermal insulation properties. Except by the design of the shape recess can also by Design of the press ram, possibly in deviation from the flat shape of the pressing surface 14, be ensured that the emerging, also referred to below as a tablet, Thermal insulation molding 15 has a flat surface.

In der gleichen Form oder ggf. in einer anderen Stützform oder auf einer Unterlage wird jetzt durch einen Einlegestempel 16 ein Heizleiterband 17 in die Oberfläche 18 des Wärmedämm-Formteils 15 teilweise eingedrückt. Dazu hat der Einlegestempel 16 Nuten 20 in seiner der Oberfläche 18 zugewandten Fläche 19. Die Nuten sind entsprechend der gewünschten Verlegung (Macroform) des Heizleiters angeordnet, beispielsweise spiralig oder mäanderförmig. Sie sind etwa so breit wie der Heizleiter. In the same form or, if necessary, in a different support form or is now on a pad by an insert stamp 16 a heating conductor tape 17 in the surface 18 of the Thermal insulation molding 15 partially depressed. For that he has Insertion punch 16 grooves 20 in its surface 18 facing surface 19. The grooves are corresponding to the desired laying (Macroform) of the heating conductor arranged, for example spiral or meandering. They are something like that wide as the heating conductor.

Der Heizleiter 17 besteht beim dargestellten Beispiel aus einem in Fig. 3 näher dargestellten dünnen Band aus Heizleitermaterial. Die Dicke liegt meist nur bei wenigen hundertstell Millimetern, z.B. 0,04 - 0,07 mm, während die Höhe einige Millimeter beträgt. An der Unterkante des durchgehenden bandförmigen Bereiches 21 sind Befestigungsfüße 22 angeordnet, die mit dem Band einstückig durch entsprechendes Ausstanzen oder Ausschneiden angefertigt sind. Diese z.B. rechteckig oder trapezförmig begrenzten Befestigungsfüße sind, ebenso wie das Band, wellenartig gekrümmt, so daß das Band eine quer zu seiner Hauptrichtung verlaufende Wellung aufweist. Die Krümmungsachsen der Wellen stehen also senkrecht zur Oberfläche 18, 19.The heating conductor 17 consists of the example shown a thin strip of heating conductor material shown in Fig. 3. The thickness is usually only a few hundred digits Millimeters, e.g. 0.04 - 0.07 mm while the height is a few millimeters. On the bottom edge of the continuous band-shaped area 21 are fastening feet 22 arranged with the tape in one piece by appropriate Punching or cutting are made. These e.g. Rectangular or trapezoid-shaped mounting feet are, like the band, wavy curved, so that the Tape a curl across its main direction having. The axes of curvature of the waves are therefore perpendicular to the surface 18, 19.

Die Heizleiterbänder 17 werden in den Nuten 20 durch entsprechende Bemessung und federnde Anlage oder durch in den Einlegestempel eingebrachte Magnete gehalten, so daß die Befestigungsfüße 22 aus den Nuten 20 heraus über die untere Fläche 19 des Einlegestempels 16 herausstehen. So wird der Einlegestempel gegen die ebene Oberfläche 18 der Tablette 15 gedrückt, und zwar so weit, bis die Befestigungsfüße 22 in das vorverpreßte Material eingedrungen sind. Die Oberfläche 19 des Einlegestempels begrenzt die Stempelbewegung, die jedoch auch durch eine Steuerung entsprechend abgefangen werden kann. Dabei kann eine gewisse Nachverpressung erfolgen, was jedoch nicht zwingend notwendig ist. Dann wird der Stempel 16 hochgefahren, während die Heizleiter 17 an der Tablette 15 bleiben. Dies kann dadurch erleichtert werden, daß z.B. ein die Heizleiter haltender Elektromagnet abgeschaltet wird.The heating conductor strips 17 are in the grooves 20 by appropriate Design and resilient system or by in the Inserted magnets held so that the Fastening feet 22 out of the grooves 20 over the lower one Stand out surface 19 of the insertion punch 16. So it will Insert stamp against the flat surface 18 of the tablet 15 pressed, until the mounting feet 22 in the pre-compressed material has penetrated. The surface 19 of the insertion stamp limits the stamp movement that but also intercepted accordingly by a controller can be. A certain amount of repressing can take place which, however, is not absolutely necessary. Then the Stamp 16 started up while the heating conductor 17 on the Tablet 15 stay. This can be facilitated that e.g. an electromagnet holding the heating conductor is switched off becomes.

Danach wird das nunmehr mit dem Heizleiterband fest verbundene Wärmedämmformteil 15 aus der Form oder seiner Halterung entnommen und kann, ggf. nach einer Zwischenlagerung, als vorgefertigtes Teil in eine Blechträgerschale 23 eines Strahlungsheizkörpers eingelegt werden. Diese Blechträgerschale hat die Form einer flachen Schale mit einem gegenüber dem Boden 24 etwas erhöhten Rand 25, an den sich der vertikal hochragende Außenrand 26 anschließt. Die Tablette 15 hat einen entsprechend dieser Gestalt angeformten Boden, nämlich einen vertieften Bodenabschnitt 27, und einen demgegenüber nach oben abgesetzten Randbereich 28, der beim Einlegen der Tablette 15 auf der Auflageschulter 25 aufliegt.Then this is now firmly connected to the heating conductor tape Thermal insulation molded part 15 from the mold or its holder removed and, if necessary after an intermediate storage, as prefabricated part in a sheet metal support shell 23 a Radiant heater are inserted. This sheet metal carrier shell has the shape of a flat bowl with one opposite the bottom 24 slightly raised edge 25 to which the vertical towering outer edge 26 connects. The tablet 15 has a shaped base according to this shape, namely a recessed bottom portion 27, and one opposite upwardly offset edge region 28, which when inserting the Tablet 15 rests on the support shoulder 25.

Obwohl es möglich wäre, bei dem Wärmedämmformteil anschließend an die ebene Oberfläche 18 im Außenbereich einen hochstehenden Rand anzuformen, der den Außenrand 26 der BlechTrägerschale 23 innen isoliert, ist es bevorzugt, einen gesonderten ringförmigen Rand 30 aus einem mechanisch etwas festeren und ebenfalls hochwärmebeständigem Dämm-Material, beispielsweise aus keramischen Fasern oder Vermiculite, einzulegen, der etwas über den Blech-Außenrand 26 hochragt und sich mit seiner Oberseite an die Unterseite einer Glaskeramikplatte 29 anlegt, die die Kochfläche bildet. Dieser Rand 30 dient dann auch gleichzeitig als Sicherung des Wärmedämmformteils in der Trägerschale und verhindert beispielsweise im Transport ein Abheben. Durch die großflächige Niederhaltung und die Tatsache, daß dieser Rand 30 unmittelbar über der Auflageschulter 25 angreift, wird das Wärmeformteil 11 lediglich durch geringe Druckkräfte belastet, wenn der Strahlungsheizkörper 11 federnd an die Unterseite der Glaskeramikplatte angedrückt wird. Im Durchmesser, d.h. in den horizontalen Abmessungen, kann das separate Wärmedämm-formteil 25 etwas kleiner sein als die Trägerschale, so daß auch durch Wärme, Feuchtigkeit oder dgl. bedingte Ausdehnungen nicht zu einer Verspannung des Wärmedämmformteils führen. Although it would be possible to do so with the thermal insulation molding an upright on the flat surface 18 in the outer region To form the edge of the outer edge 26 of the sheet metal carrier shell 23 insulated inside, it is preferred one separate annular rim 30 from a mechanical something firmer and also highly heat-resistant insulation material, for example from ceramic fibers or vermiculite, insert that protrudes slightly above the sheet metal outer edge 26 and with its top against the bottom of a glass ceramic plate 29 creates, which forms the cooking surface. This Edge 30 then also serves as a backup of the Insulated molded part in the carrier shell and prevents, for example take off in transport. Due to the large area Restraint and the fact that this edge 30 immediately engages over the support shoulder 25, the heat molded part 11 only burdened by low compressive forces if the radiant heater 11 resiliently to the bottom of the Glass ceramic plate is pressed. In diameter, i.e. in the horizontal dimensions, the separate thermal insulation molding 25 be slightly smaller than the carrier shell, so that also due to heat, moisture or the like do not lead to distortion of the thermal insulation molded part.

Der entstehende Strahlungsheizkörper zeichnet sich also durch eine die Heizleiter tragende eben zu gestaltende Oberfläche mit gleichförmiger Einbett-Tiefe der Heizleiter aus, wobei dies unabhängig von der Form der Trägerschale ist, deren Boden 24 durchaus zufällig oder bewußt gewölbt sein könnte, um eventuellen Sprungscheibeneffekten bei der Erwärmung vorzubeugen. Durch die einlagige Isolierung aus hochwärmedämmendem und hochtemperaturbeständigem Material ist die Isolierung sehr wirksam und kostengünstig herzustellen. Aufgrund der geringen mechanischen Anforderungen kann weitgehend auf eine Armierung durch Fasern verzichtet werden.The resulting radiant heater is characterized by a surface to be designed to carry the heating conductor with a uniform embedding depth of the heating conductor, whereby this is independent of the shape of the carrier shell, the Floor 24 could be randomly or deliberately curved, for possible spring washer effects during heating to prevent. Thanks to the single-layer insulation made of highly heat-insulating and high temperature resistant material is the insulation very effective and inexpensive to manufacture. Because of The low mechanical requirements can largely be attributed to reinforcement by fibers can be dispensed with.

Die Oberfläche 18 des separaten Wärmedämmformteils 15 ist eben in dem Sinne, daß es der gewünschten Form genau entspricht. Die Oberfläche könnte beispielsweise auch aus zwei höhenmäßig gegeneinander versetzten Ebenen bestehen, wenn z.B. Heizleiter unterschiedlicher Höhe in verschiedenen Bereichen verwendet werden. Bevorzugt ist jedoch die möglichst genau parallel zur Unterkante der Glaskeramik verlaufende ebene Ausführung der Oberfläche 18, wobei dann auch die Oberkanten der Heizleiter in einer zur Glaskeramikfläche parallel liegenden Ebene liegen.The surface 18 of the separate thermal insulation molding 15 is in the sense that it corresponds exactly to the desired shape. For example, the surface could be two levels offset from each other in terms of height, if e.g. Heating conductors of different heights in different Areas are used. However, this is preferred if possible exactly parallel to the lower edge of the glass ceramic flat design of the surface 18, and then also the upper edges of the heating conductors in one to the glass ceramic surface parallel plane.
