  • the present disclosure relates to a heater used for a liquid heating heater, a gas heating heater, an oxygen sensor heater, or the like.
  • the ceramic heater described in Patent Document 1 includes a core member including a heat generation portion therein, a connection terminal portion provided at a side surface of the core material and connected to the heat generation portion, and a lead terminal including one end portion bonded to the connection terminal portion by a brazing material and the other end portion extending along a longitudinal direction of the ceramic heater.

  • the heater includes a ceramic body having a cylindrical or a tubular shape and extending from a first end toward a second end, a heating resistor located inside the ceramic body, an electrode pad electrically connected to the heating resistor, a lead terminal electrically connected to the electrode pad, and a bonding material having electrical conductivity and bonding the electrode pad and the lead terminal, wherein the electrode pad is located from a side surface to an end surface of the ceramic body.
  • a terminal connection portion is provided at one surface of a core member. This has resulted in a risk of failure to maintain the bonding strength of the terminal connection portion when vibration occurs in a direction in which the core member and the terminal connection portion are separated from each other. Thus, the terminal connection portion may be peeled off from the core member when used for a long period of time. As a result, it has been difficult to improve the long-term reliability of ceramic heaters.

  • the second part 12 since the second part 12 includes the second side surface 121 continuous from the first end surface 112 and extending toward the second end 102 and the second end surface 122 continuous with the second side surface 121, a step can be provided between the second part 12 and the first part 11.
  • a space for storing the bonding material 5 can be provided between the lead terminal 4, the first end surface 112, and the second side surface 121. This makes it possible to add a larger amount of the bonding material 5.

With this configuration, even when vibration occurs in a direction in which the ceramic body 1 and the electrode pad 3 are separated from each other, the bonding strength of the electrode pad 3 can be maintained. Thus, a risk of peeling of the electrode pad 3 from the ceramic body 1 can be reduced even when used for a long period of time. As a result, the long-term reliability of the heater 100 can be improved.
  • the heating resistor 2 may be located between the first part 11 and the second part 12 and include an end portion protruding from the first end 101 surface 112, and the end portion and the electrode pad 3 may be bonded to each other.

  • the bonding material 5 may be provided in a meniscus form from the first end surface 112 to the lead terminal 4 and a space may be provided between the second side surface 121 and the lead terminal 4. Accordingly, while the lead terminal 4 and the ceramic body 1 are firmly fixed to each other by the bonding material, a region in which the bonding material 5 can thermally expand can be formed by the space provided between the second side surface 121 and the lead terminal 4. Accordingly, a risk of generation of thermal stress between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 due to thermal expansion of the bonding material 5 can be reduced. Thus, a risk of generation of cracks between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 can be reduced. As a result, the long-term reliability of the heater 100 can be improved.
  • the bonding material 5 may be located filling the space between the second side surface 121 and the lead terminal 4.
  • the lead terminal 4 and the ceramic body 1 can be firmly fixed by the bonding material 5.
  • a risk of peeling between the lead terminal 4 and the ceramic body 1 can be reduced.

  • the lead terminal 4 may be curved.
  • the expression "curved" as used herein means that, as illustrated in FIG. 9 , a portion connecting a portion electrically bonded to the electrode pad 3 and a portion extending toward the first end 101 is curved. With this configuration, vibration generated can be dispersed. Thus, the bonding strength between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 can be maintained. Thus, a risk of peeling between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 can be reduced. As a result, the long-term reliability of the heater 100 can be improved. The closer the angle between the portion electrically bonded to the electrode pad 3 and the portion extending toward the first end 101 is to 90 degrees, the larger the effect of the curve at the connecting portion.
  • the bonding material 5 may be provided along the first side surface and extending to the second side surface, and a gap may be provided between the bonding material 5 and the first end 101 surface 121. Accordingly, the bonding material 5 can thermally expand to a portion where the first part 11 is exposed. Accordingly, a risk of generation of thermal stress between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 due to thermal expansion of the bonding material 5 can be reduced. Thus, a risk of generation of cracks between the lead terminal 4 and the bonding material 5 can be reduced. As a result, the long-term reliability of the heater 100 can be improved.
  • the electrode pad 3 may be narrower at the first end 101 side than at the second end 102 side of the ceramic body 1.
  • the term "narrow” used herein means that the length of the electrode pad 3 at the first end 101 side of the ceramic body 1 is shorter than that at the second end 102 side in the circumferential direction of the ceramic body 1.
  • the electrode pad 3 may have a stepped shape in which the electrode pad 3 is narrower at the first end 101 side than at the second end 102 side of the ceramic body 1. Still, when the electrode pad 3 is tapered toward the first end 101 side of the ceramic body 1, the stress can be further reduced as compared with the stepped shape.
  • the electrode pad 3 may be tapered toward the center of the second part 12 when viewed from the first end 101 side of the ceramic body 1.
  • the two electrode pads 3 provided at the end surface of the ceramic body 1 can be separated from each other.
  • a risk of occurrence of short circuiting at the end surface of the ceramic body 1 can be reduced.
  • the long-term reliability of the heater 100 can be improved.
  • the two electrode pads 3 may have different outer peripheral lengths as viewed from the first end 101 side of the ceramic body 1.
  • the anode and the cathode can be distinguished from each other when bonding the heater 100 to another component.
  • the heater 100 can be accurately connected with other members.
  • the two electrode pads 3 may have different inner peripheral lengths as viewed from the first end 101 side of the ceramic body 1.
  • the anode and the cathode can be distinguished from each other when bonding the heater 100 to another component.
  • the heater 100 can be accurately connected with other members.
  • making the outer periphery of the electrode pad 3 serving as the cathode longer than that of the anode or increasing the inner peripheral length can make the diameter or the number of lead terminals 4 attached to the electrode pad 3 serving as the cathode larger than that for the anode. This enables the heater 100 to be fixed, with the cathode lead terminal 4 grounded.
