This invention relates generally to the production of electrical heating elements and more particularly to a method or process of producing a heating unit of the kind disclosed in my Patents Nos. 1,613,426, 1,614,330 and 1,614,331, and embodying a sheath or casing, a resistor, a filling of compacted refractory material enveloping said resistor and a cover plate over which the edges of the shallow casing are turned to securely fasten all the parts together.
One object of the present invention isto improve upon the methods heretofore employed in the fabrication of these elements, and provide a series of steps which can be more conveniently and rapidly carried out, thereby reducing the cost of the unit, and the present method also has the advantage ofproducing a somewhat better or improved article of manufacture.
' In its broadest aspects, the invention consists in positioning a resistor upon a support, and within a border; enveloping said resistor with a mass of refractory electrical insulating material, arranging a sheath or casing over said mass and resistor and applying pressure thereto, then reversing said sheath or casing with the refractory and resistor th erein, adding more refractory, positioning a cover plate, and applying pressure for compacting the entire mass, and then turning the edges of the sheath or casing over the adjacent portions of the cover plate, and then baking the unit. If a moist binder is employed in the refractory mass, a drying operation may be desirable but where a fusible binder is employed such separate drying will not be required.
The invention also includes certain steps and details hereinafter fully described and set forth in the appended claims.
In the drawings forming a part of-this specification and in which is shown one 0 form of apparatus for carrymg out my 1mproved method or process, Fig. 1 is a sectional view'of a support or form upon iwhich the resistor is positioned and which constitutes the first step of the method or process; Fig. 2 is a similar view illustrating the second step; Fig. 3 a similar view illustrating the third step; Fig. 4 is a view partly in elevation and partly in section showing the fourth step; Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the reversed and partly filled sheath or casing; Fig. 6 is a similar view showing the sheath .or casing completely filled with refractory and Fig. 7 is a view showing the second compressing operation; Fig. 8 is a sectional view of the sheath with the resistor, refractory and cover plate arranged in the sheath; Fig. 9 is a view showing the edges of the sheath turned over the adjacent edges of the cover plate and Fig. 10 is a view showing the final pressing operation.
I shall now describe in detail my improved method or process and at the same time, so much of one form of apparatus for carrying it out, as may benecessary for a clear understanding. 1
The first step consists in positioning a resistor 10' upon a suitable support which in this particular instance consists of a plurality of positioning pins 11 which project upwardly from a form or base 12, which is shaped or contoured according to the nature of the element to be produced, that is to say the base 12 can be round, oblong, triangular or ring shape, and the pins 11 will of course be placed to distribute the resistor properly within the entire shape of the element.
The base 12 is fastened to a suitable support 13, and its lower face is recessed at 14 to receive a block 15 carrying the pins 11, these pins working in vertical holes produced in the base 12. I
The block 15 has a rod 16 connected there to and by means of which it can be drawn down to withdraw the pins 11 below the upper face of the base 12. The support 13 is recessed at 17 to permit this movement of the block 15.
One or more spiral springs '18 keep the blocks 15 normally raised, these springs being located in recesses 19 produced in the support 13. i
A wall or border 20 is placed about the base form, as shown'in Fig. 2, this wall or The inner face of this wall or border 'conforms to the shape of the base and to the but if a fusible binder is employed shape of the element to be produced. There is a slight space 22 between the lowerv inner edge of the wall or border and the upper edge of the base, this space being just sufficient to permit the introduction of the side of a sheath or casing 23 when said sheath or casing is applied in inverted form.
After the resistor has been positioned upon the pins of the form, the wall or border is arranged and the space within the border is filled with a suitable refractory electrical insulating material 24.- such as magnesium or aluminum oxide, or zirconium silicate, either singly or in combination, with a binder such as clay, to give the necessary plasticity during fabrication and to effect homogeneity in the final product.
The sheath in inverted position is then made to embrace the mass of refractory material by forcing the sides of the sheath down over the base and within the wall, the sides of the sheath occupying the space 22, and then pressure is applied by a plunger 25, compacting the mass of refractory material firmly about the resistor which is still held upon the base and positioning pins.
As a next step, the pins are withdrawn, by pulling down on rod 16; the wall or border is remo ved, and the sheath or casing lifted and reversed as shown in Fig. 5
An additional quantity of refractory 24 is then placed in the sheath or casing to completely fill the same, and then additional pressure is applied by a suitable plunger 26, thereby compressing the entire mass within the sheath or casing. Instead of applying a refractory mass any other suitable insulating material may be applied as a complementary covering of insulating material.
If the mass contains a moist binder it will be necessary to dry the compacted mass, such drying will not be necessary.
A cover plate 27 is then placed in the sheath or casing, this plate being shaped to fit snugly therein as shown in Fig. 8 and then the edges 23 are turned over the adjacent edges of the cover plate as shown in Fig. 9.
The final compression is then made by plunger 28 forcing the edges 23 over, the cover plate 27, compressing the entire mass finally and giving the 'unit or element its final compression preparatory to baking which operations complete the fabrication of the electrical heating element with the exception of the attachment of terminals which has not been referred to as that is done as heretofore. It will, of course, be understood that the final compression can be utilresistor therein,
of the sheath or casing ized to give the final cross sectional shape to the heating elements.
For some types of work a wholly sheathed element is not absolutely necessary, as for instance, where the unit is properly protected when mounted in certain types of appliances, such as percolators, wafile irons and other devices where the exposed refractory is not too likely to become polluted. In these types of units the cover plate 27 may be omitted and the edges of the sheath or casing 23 rolled over and pressed down in the manner shown in my copending application Serial No. 329,628, filed December 31, 1928.
From the foregoing, it will be seen that I provide a novel method of making a completely sheathed electrical heating element and one in which the steps are quickly, conveniently and efliciently carried out.
