Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heat-generating element of a heater for air heating, comprising at least one PTC element and voltage applied to opposite side surfaces of the PTC element electrical conductor tracks.
  • a heat-generating element is, for example, from the date of the present applicant EP 1 061 776 known.
  • the heat-generating element is used in particular in a heater for a motor vehicle and comprises a plurality of successively arranged in a row PTC elements which are energized via parallel to each other, flat on opposite sides of the PTC elements voltage applied electrical conductors.
  • the conductor tracks are usually formed by parallel metal strips.
  • the heat-generating elements thus formed are used in a heating device for air heating in a motor vehicle, which comprises a plurality of layers of heat-generating elements, abut on the opposite sides of heat-emitting elements. These heat-emitting elements are applied via a holding device in relatively good heat-transfer contact to the heat-generating elements.
  • a holding device of the heating device is formed by a frame in which a plurality of mutually parallel layers of heat-generating and heat-emitting elements are spring-loaded.
  • the heat-generating element is formed by a plurality of in a row in a plane successively arranged PTC elements, which are also referred to as ceramic elements or PTC thermistors, which are energized at opposite side surfaces by voltage applied to these tracks.
  • PTC elements which are also referred to as ceramic elements or PTC thermistors, which are energized at opposite side surfaces by voltage applied to these tracks.
  • One of the tracks is formed by a circumferentially closed profile.
  • the heat-emitting elements are characterized by in formed a plurality of parallel layers slats extending at right angles to the circumferentially closed metal profile.
  • a plurality of circumferentially closed metal profiles formed in the manner described above are provided, which are arranged parallel to each other. The lamellae partially extend between the circumferentially closed profiles and partially protrude beyond them.
  • the electrical traces must be in good electrical contact with the PTC elements. Otherwise, there is the problem of increased contact resistance, which can lead to a local overheating, in particular when using the heat-generating elements in auxiliary heaters for motor vehicles because of the high currents. By this thermal event, the heat-generating element can be damaged.
  • the PTC elements are self-regulating resistance heaters that provide lower heat output at elevated temperature, so local overheating can interfere with the self-regulating properties of the PTC elements.
  • the PTC elements are usually arranged in a position frame, which can be used as a flat component in the substantially in the plane of the PTC elements.
  • the position frame is used for positionally accurate positioning of the PTC elements during assembly of the heat-generating element, possibly also the support of the PTC elements in permanent operation.
  • the position frame is made of plastic and as an injection molded part and thus has certain insulating properties.
  • the protection of the PTC elements from air and moisture ie the rollover protection is effected solely by the PTC elements completely enveloping capsule, which complicates the production of heat-generating elements and not in all conceivable applications of the heat-generating elements, especially in the application the heat-generating elements may be used in an air heater in a motor vehicle.
  • a heat-generating element is known, which is realized without position frame and in which the successively arranged PTC elements are taken together with these on both sides adjacent and forming the conductors baffles and arranged on the outside of insulating on the longitudinal sides.
  • the lateral version of the layer structure is formed by U-shaped silicone profiles, the legs of which are intended to rest on the insulating layer.
  • the silicone strips are also relatively soft and can be easily detached, for example, during assembly or repair work on the heater.
  • the PTC heating element within a layer structure whose outer layers are each formed by an aluminum oxide layer, which clamp a conductor between itself and the PTC heating element.
  • the aluminum oxide plates are supported on the edge of a rigid plastic frame.
  • the track is formed by a layer of ductile solder. The application of such a solder layer but leads to manufacturing difficulties.
  • the solder liquefied in an inadmissible manner and causes a short circuit within the heat-generating element.
  • the previously known heat-generating element Due to the rigid support of the aluminum oxide plates on the plastic frame, the previously known heat-generating element also lacks the ability within certain limits to respond flexibly to thermal expansion, so that in this prior art does not always secure contact between the conductors and the PTC heating element can be guaranteed.
  • a heat-generating element of a heater for air heating and a corresponding heating device is to be specified, which allows increased safety even when using high operating voltages. It should be paid to an economic manufacturability of the heat-generating element and thus the this installing heater.

  • the compressibility of the sealing bead is chosen such that the printed conductor is pressed against the PTC elements by a compressive force applied by the insulating layer, even if, due to manufacturing tolerances and / or due to different thermal expansions of the position frame on the one hand and the electrical On the other hand, the designed dimensioning of the heat-generating element is no longer consistent with the actual dimensions.

Contact problems at the transition between the track and the PTC element are thus avoided.
  • the sealing bead can be placed on the positioning frame. With regard to a simpler Production of the heat-generating element, however, it is preferable to stick the sealing bead on the positioning frame and / or the insulating layer.

  • the position frame may be formed of a plastic. In this case, the plastic should be temperature resistant. It is conceivable, for example, the production of the position frame made of polyamide. Considering a possible operating voltage of about 500 V, the support of the PTC element within the position frame should reach a CTI value of at least 600.
  • preferably used materials for forming the position frame are electrically non-conductive ceramics or a high-quality plastic, such as polyurethane, silicone or other highly insulating elastomers.

  • the electrically highly effective insulating support of the PTC elements can take place in that an insulating gap is provided between the PTC element and the frame opening surrounding the surrounding material of the position frame.
  • the insulating gap may be an air gap that is kept between the PTC element (s) and the frame opening material. In this embodiment, care must be taken to ensure that the PTC element is circumferentially spaced from the positioning frame by a sufficient distance which prevents an electrical flashover on the position frame is.
  • This positioning can be carried out in particular by an insulating layer, which keeps the one or more PTC element (s) in a predetermined position, for example, by the PTC element (s) connected directly or indirectly to the insulating layer, in particular adhesively bonded.
  • the insulating layer is also opposite the position frame, e.g. secured in position by gluing using a sealing bead.
