Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an evaporator assembly, for example for an evaporator burner of a vehicle heater.
  • evaporator assemblies generally include a cup-like evaporator media carrier having a porous evaporator medium disposed thereon. Liquid fuel is fed into this porous evaporator medium in order to distribute it by capillary action in the interior volume region of the porous evaporator medium and then to vaporize it on a surface of the evaporator medium facing a combustion chamber.
  • the evaporator medium carrier and the porous evaporator medium are generally constructed of metal material, for example sheet material being used for the evaporator medium carrier, while for the porous evaporator medium, for example, a metal fleece or mesh can be used.
  • an evaporator assembly in particular for an evaporator burner of a vehicle heater, comprising a cup-like evaporator medium carrier and a porous evaporator medium, wherein the porous evaporator medium is connected to a surface of the evaporator medium carrier by a flat solder joint.
  • the evaporator medium carrier is formed with a bottom wall and a circumferential wall and that the planar solder joint comprises substantially the entire adjoining region of the porous evaporator medium to a surface of the bottom wall.
  • planar solder connection comprises, as an alternative or in addition, substantially the entire adjoining area of the porous evaporator medium to a surface of the circumferential wall.
  • the evaporator medium carrier and / or the porous evaporator medium be made of metal material.
  • the pot-like evaporator medium carrier or / and the porous evaporator medium to be composed essentially of non-metallic material, preferably ceramic material.
  • the planar solder connection can be realized, for example, by the measure c) arranging soldering material on a surface the evaporator medium carrier and before or after carrying out the measure b) comprises the melting of the solder material.
  • the evaporator medium carrier comprises a bottom wall and a circumferential wall and that in the measure c) a flat solder joint between the porous evaporator medium and a surface of the bottom wall is produced on the surface of the bottom wall substantially in the entire boundary region of the porous evaporator medium is, or / and that in the measure c) a flat solder joint between the porous evaporator medium and a surface of the peripheral wall is made substantially in the entire abutment region of the porous evaporator medium to the surface of the peripheral wall.
  • the invention further relates to a vehicle heater with an evaporator burner, which is equipped with an inventively constructed or manufactured evaporator assembly.
  • evaporator assembly 10 is shown as it can be used for example in an evaporator burner of a vehicle heater.
  • the evaporator assembly 10 includes an evaporator media carrier 12 constructed of metal, such as sheet metal, generally a cup-like or shell-like structure is formed with a bottom wall 14 and an outer wall adjoining peripheral wall 16.
  • a porous evaporator medium 18 is used in this cup-like or shell-like structure of the evaporator medium carrier.
  • a fuel supply line 20 can pass through the bottom wall 14 and feed liquid fuel into the area of the porous evaporator medium 18 facing away from a combustion chamber.
  • the liquid fuel is distributed by capillary action and also supported by gravity in the porous evaporator medium and reach a combustion chamber facing surface 22 of the porous evaporator medium 18, from where the fuel is released in a vaporous configuration ,
  • the porous evaporator medium 18 produced, for example, from metal fleece, metal mesh or other pore-like metal material structure is dimensioned in accordance with the shaping of the evaporator medium carrier such that it bears against a surface 24 of the bottom wall 14 and also a surface 26 of the circumferential wall 16. In these abutment regions in which the porous evaporator medium adjoins the surfaces 24 and 26, respectively, as described below with reference to FIGS Fig. 2 explains, realized a flat solder joint between the porous evaporator medium 18 and the evaporator medium carrier 12.
  • a Lötmateriallage 30 is provided which the surface 24 is covered over and in which the end regions of the fibers 28 engage.
  • the Lötmateriallage 30 extends at least over the entire surface 24 of the bottom wall 14, of course, in the Fuel supply line 20 formed fuel supply opening 32 is recessed to allow the entry of fuel.
  • the soldering material layer 30 can also be provided in the adjoining area on the surface 26 of the circumferential wall 16, so that substantially the entire adjoining area of the porous evaporator medium 18 is realized on the evaporator medium carrier 16 with such a soldering material layer 30.
  • a significantly better thermal contact between the porous evaporator medium 18 and the evaporator medium carrier 12 is realized by providing the flat solder joint. If, for example, a heating device, for example in the form of an electrical heating conductor or the like, is provided on the rear side 34 of the evaporator medium carrier 12 facing away from the evaporator medium 18, the heat provided there can be introduced significantly better into the porous evaporator medium 18 through the evaporator medium carrier 12 and thus the fuel evaporation be supported much more efficiently.
  • the coating is essentially the whole Surfaces 24, 26 with the Lötmateriallage represents a particularly advantageous variant.
  • the realization of the planar solder joint with the soldering material 30 substantially only in the region of the surface 26 of the peripheral wall 16 can already bring significantly improved Abdampfungseigenschaften, since then the uncontrolled leakage of liquid fuel, especially in this adjoining region in the direction of the combustion chamber is no longer possible ,
  • solder material into the evaporator medium carrier 12, wherein a solder material blank may be used here, especially if a soldering material layer 30 is to be provided on the peripheral wall 16 which has a ring-shaped, cup-like structure adapted to the shape of the evaporator medium carrier 12.
  • the porous evaporator medium 18 can then be used. Thereafter, the entire assembly can be heated, so that in the adjoining region of the porous evaporator medium 18 to the evaporator medium carrier 12 existing solder material melts and can penetrate by the capillary effect in the near-surface region of the porous evaporator medium 18. In this way, a soldering material layer 30 formed substantially without interruptions is realized, which, after cooling and curing, realizes a fixed connection of the porous evaporator medium 18 to the evaporator medium carrier 12.
  • the soldering material for the soldermaking layer to be formed there can first be inserted into the evaporator medium carrier 12, then melted, whereupon the porous material is then removed Evaporator medium 18 is placed.
  • the melting of the soldering material introduced, for example, in a granular structure this will form a layer of liquid soldering material covering the entire region of the bottom wall 14.
  • the evaporator medium carrier, the brazing material or the porous evaporator medium may be advantageous to weight the evaporator medium carrier, the brazing material or the porous evaporator medium by a weight. This ensures that possibly existing gaps in the adjoining region of the porous evaporator medium are removed to the evaporator medium carrier, especially when these assemblies are heated to melt the solder material. The solder material is then evenly distributed in the transition region between the evaporator medium carrier and the evaporator medium by capillary action and thus produces a very uniform connection effect. The emergence of larger gaps, in which reinforced solder material is accumulated, can thus be prevented.
  • the pot-like or shell-like evaporator medium carrier 12 or also the porous evaporator medium 18 of metal material, so that not only a positive-fit connection obtained by the penetration of the soldering material into the porous structure of the porous evaporator medium 18 is generated, but also a material connection.
  • the evaporator medium carrier 12 and / or the porous evaporator medium 18 is generally made of non-metallic material such. B. ceramic material to build.
  • the porous evaporator medium 18 As a result of the penetration of the liquefied soldering material into the regions of the pore structure close to the surface after curing of this soldering material, a very firm material section is formed by the engagement of the pore structure generated holding effect achieved.
  • the evaporator medium carrier 12 made of non-metallic material such. B. ceramic material, it is possible to metallize this, for example, to evaporate a thin metal layer, so that it is constructed in particular in particular for obtaining insulation properties, non-metallic, for example, good heat insulating material, by providing a metal coating, however, nevertheless Use of the solder joint a firm connection of the porous evaporator medium 18 is achieved.
