Definitions

  • the invention relates to a high voltage air heater in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for the assembly thereof.
  • PTC elements have a positive temperature coefficient and are therefore self-regulating PTC thermistors building up increasing electrical resistance with increasing heat, so that the electrical power absorbed and hence also the heating power are reduced.
  • Document EP 2 608 633 A1 discloses a high voltage air heater in which the components with the PTC elements and the lamella elements are also in contact with each other in close succession and thus form a cuboidal throughflowable block enclosed in a correspondingly cuboidal frame.
  • a housing with electric contacts is provided at one of the two shorter front sides of the frame.
  • the claimed high voltage air heater has several elongate components referred to as step cores which each accommodate several PTC elements.
  • the PTC elements are provided to convert current to heat, wherein, for the dissipation of their heat to the air, at least one lamella element is in heat-conducting contact with each component and extends substantially along the component.
  • one component and two lamella elements are respectively grouped to form a heater step and are fixedly connected with each other, preferably glued. This facilitates the final assembly of the components and of the lamella elements since they are grouped to form heater steps in a prior assembly step, before a reduced number of heater steps - e.g. six heater steps - are incorporated in the high voltage air heater in a final assembly step.
  • High voltage means in the scope of this document at least 100 Volt, preferably at least 500 Volt.
  • the heater steps are arranged at a distance to each other.
  • the air resistance during throughflowing is reduced as compared to the state of the art and/or the lamella elements are electrically decoupled from each other if they are energized.
  • a parallel distance which preferably extends approximately transversely to a throughflow direction of the air is preferred in the spacing apart of the heater steps.
  • the lamella elements of two adjacent heater steps may face each other such that the distance between two heater steps corresponds to the distance of the two lamella elements facing each other.
  • the heater steps are surrounded by a main body housing.
  • the heater steps are surrounded on all sides, i.e. they are completely enclosed.
  • the main body housing may form a five-side cover while a control housing covers the sixth side.
  • the heat dissipation to the air is not optimal since the outermost lateral lamella elements over their entire length and, furthermore, all lamella elements with their front side are in contact with the massive frame. At these contact faces the heat dissipation of the lamella elements to the air is reduced or prevented.
  • the lamella elements are arranged to be spaced apart also from the main body housing.
  • step cores each have an inner layer comprising the PTC elements, and contact plates which are in contact with the outer sides thereof.
  • Insulation plates e.g. of Al2O3 ceramic
  • cover plates are in turn in contact with the outer sides of the insulation plates.
  • the two lamella elements are fastened to the outer sides of the two cover plates.
  • cover plates or the lamella elements may comprise oxide ceramic or other insulation layers on their surfaces.
  • the heater steps are energizable via the control housing, wherein the heater steps are fastened at one side via a respective end portion to the control housing.
  • a radial sealing element and/or an axial sealing element is/are provided between the end portions of the heater steps and the control housing.
  • the heater steps comprise a respective support and/or clamping frame.
  • the frame preferably defines a frame plane which, for throughflow optimization, is oriented perpendicular to the throughflow direction.
  • the frames are sealingly fastened to the control housing by a respective locking ring.
  • the frames may each comprise a step housing and a step housing cover which jointly encompass and preferably clamp the associated component.
  • the step housing and the step housing cover may be connected with each other by projections or pivots extending through respective recesses.
  • the projections and/or pivots are connected with the recesses by welding or by plastically expanding the projections and/or pivots.
  • the pairs of projections and/or pivots and recesses are distributed evenly over the circumference of the frame.
  • the projections and/or pivots may be disposed on the step housing and the recesses on the step housing cover.
  • a seal is provided between the step housing and the step housing cover.
  • a seal is provided between the step housing and one of the two cover plates and a further seal is provided between the step housing cover and the other of the two cover plates.
  • At least one of the frames comprises, at its end portion facing away from the control housing, a mechanical support connection with the main body housing.
  • the method for assembling the above-described high voltage air heater in accordance with the invention comprises a pre-assembly of its heater steps.
  • the pre-assembly may comprise the following steps in the order mentioned:
  • Figure 1 shows the embodiment of the high voltage air heater in accordance with the invention in a perspective view. It comprises a main body housing 1 which is covered by an approximately two-dimensional main body housing cover 2. Thus, an approximately cuboidal interior is formed which will be explained in detail with reference to the further figures.
  • a likewise approximately cuboidal control housing 4 which is covered by a control housing cover 6 is fastened to the front side of the main body housing 1.
  • the two parts 4, 6 are formed as two shell parts, with the control housing 4 being larger than the control housing cover 6.

  • the changed perspective reveals a first side of the printed circuit board assembly 20 which faces the heater steps 14 and at which three high voltage switching elements 30 are arranged at a distance to the printed circuit board assembly 20.

They project through the control housing 4 into the main body housing 1 and are arranged between always two coupling projections 16.
  • three respective openings 36 are provided in each the main body housing 1 and the main body housing cover 2, said openings 36 being arranged pairwise before and behind the groups of cooling ribs 34 such that the high voltage switching elements 30 dissipate their heat via the heat dissipation elements 32 and further via their respective group of cooling ribs 34 to the airflow, so that the high voltage switching elements 30 are optimally cooled and thus contribute to the heating of the airflow.
  • Figure 4 shows a plan view of the control housing cover 6.
  • Figure 5 shows a longitudinal section according to the section plane A-A of figure 4 through a part of the high voltage air heater in accordance with the invention. More precisely, the control housing 4 and a part of the main body housing 1 are illustrated.
  • Figure 6 illustrates a heater step 14 with its circumferential frame 48 at the end portion of which the locking ring 18 is arranged rotatably.
  • Figure 7 illustrates the heater step 14 of figure 6 in an exploded view.
  • the frame 48 is formed of a circumferential step housing 50 and a likewise circumferential step housing cover 52.
  • the locking ring 18 is attached rotatably at the step housing 50.

Respective lamella elements 62 are glued to the outer sides of the two cover plates 60 and thus to the two outer sides of the component.
  • These lamella elements 62 are folded and/or bent from a long metal strip, so that a plurality of two-dimensional fins are formed which extend substantially away from the cover plates 16 and hence also away from the component of the heater steps 14 so as to be able to dissipate the heat of the PTC elements 54 optimally to the air.
  • Figure 8 illustrates a perspective sectional view of one of the heater steps 14, six of which have been incorporated in the embodiment of the high voltage air heater in accordance with the invention according to the preceding figures.
