保が難しい。2. Description of the Related Art A carbon heater of this kind is constructed by alternately providing a plurality of slits vertically from the facing surfaces of a flat plate-shaped or cylindrical carbon substrate having a rectangular shape. Therefore, heat is not radiated in the slit portion, and the heat emissivity is different from that of the carbon base material portion, so that it is difficult to ensure uniform heat distribution.

ヒーターが開示されている。In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-160788, in order to eliminate the change in the thermal emissivity, CV is formed in the slit portion.
According to the D method, a heater is disclosed which is filled with a substance having an electrical resistivity of 10 3 times or more that of a carbon substrate and an emissivity of 0.65 to 1.0.

する必要が生ずる。As a result, the soaking property is greatly improved,
If the difference in thermal expansion between the filling material and the base material is not sufficiently taken into consideration, cracking cannot be avoided when heating and cooling are repeated, and the life of the heater is shortened. Further, the cost for filling by the CVD method is large, and it is necessary to limit the range of application.

べく、産業上無駄な対応せざる得ないと言う問題が有
る。In the above-mentioned conventional carbon heater, since the slits are provided perpendicularly to the opposite surfaces of the carbon substrate, heat is not radiated from the slits. However, there is a problem of lack of uniform heat distribution, and in order to alleviate this problem, there is a problem in that industrial waste must be dealt with in order to secure an apparent uniform heat distribution by extra heating power.

慮しないと、その寿命が劣化するという問題がある。In addition, in the case of filling the slit portion with SiC by the CVD method in order to make the heat radiation uniform, the manufacturing cost increases, and the life is shortened unless the consistency of the physical properties with the base material is taken into consideration. There is a problem of deterioration.

目的とし、産業上の利用範囲を拡大する。In view of the above problems, the present invention has an object to provide a carbon heater which is excellent in thermal uniformity, reduces the heater power and does not increase the manufacturing cost, and expands the industrial application range. .

ットが無い様にしたヒーター。In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the carbon heater of the present invention is a flat plate-shaped or cylindrical carbon heater having slits provided alternately, and a perpendicular line or a method of a plane where slit angles are opposed to each other. For the line
A heater with an apparent angle of 5 ° to 75 ° and no slits.

て生じる振動に対する剛性に難を生じる。As the carbon heater, graphite or carbon fiber reinforced carbon composite material (C /
The target is C). The thickness of the carbon heater is
Although not particularly specified, it is preferably 1 to 40 mm. If it is less than 1 mm, the rigidity against vibration generated by the electromagnetic action at both ends of the slit becomes difficult.
【0010】また、40mm以上になると、特に、大型

リングに難を生ずる。If it is 40 mm or more, particularly in a large-sized carbon heater, its weight becomes heavy and handling becomes difficult.
【0011】スリットの幅は、特に、規定されるもので

0mmが望ましい。The width of the slit is not particularly specified. However, to apply to the present invention, 1 mm to 3
0 mm is desirable.
【0012】1mm未満の場合には放電の可能性が高ま

用しても、充分な均熱性の確保が難しくなる。If it is less than 1 mm, the possibility of electric discharge increases, and if it is 30 mm or more, it becomes difficult to secure sufficient heat uniformity even if the slit shape of the present invention is applied.

材の厚みおよびスリット幅に応じて決定されるが、好ま
しい範囲としては、5°〜75°であり、より好ましい
範囲としては、30°〜60°である。The angle of the slit with respect to the normal line or the normal line to the facing surface of the carbon base material depends on the thickness and the slit width of the carbon base material so that it cannot be seen from the direction of the normal line of the facing surface of the carbon base material. Although it is determined, a preferable range is 5 ° to 75 °, and a more preferable range is 30 ° to 60 °.

れない部分が残存するため、均熱性を低下させる。When the angle of the slit is 5 ° or less, the slit is not completely shielded depending on the slit width and the line of sight from the normal direction of the carbon base material can be seen, so that there is a portion where heat is not radiated, so that the uniform heat is left. Decrease heat resistance.

適用は難しい。On the other hand, when the angle of the slit is 75 ° or more, the strength of the corner portion of the slit cannot be secured, so that the frequency of occurrence of chips, cracks, etc. becomes high and the life of the heater is deteriorated. In addition, processing difficulty occurs, and industrial application is difficult.

る。Since the slits of the carbon heater are formed at an angle of 5 ° to 75 ° with respect to the normal line or the normal line of the facing surface of the carbon base material, the difference in heat radiation between the carbon base material and the slit portion becomes extremely small, Uniform heating is greatly improved.
