Application July 9, 1938, Serial No. 218,372
7 Claims.
This invention relates to a heating plug and particularly to that type of heating plug which may be used in connection with a' hot water bottle or other liquid container so as to heat the container and its contents.
It has for one object to provide a device of the type indicated which is simple in construction and economical in operation.
Another object is to provide such a device so arranged that it can be readily assembled, and in case of damage or wear can be readily repaired.
Another object is to provide the device indicated so arranged that the heating element itself is shielded from the liquid but circulation of the liquid past the heating element is provided, and hence more eiiective heating of the fluid is accomplished.
Other objects will appear from time to time in the course of the specication and claims.
The invention is illustrated more or less diagrammatically in the accompanying drawing, wherein: f
Figure 1 is a side elevation;
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section on an enlarged scale taken at line 2-2 of Figure 1; and
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional detail taken at line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Like parts are indicated by like symbols throughout the specication and drawing.
I indicates generally the body of the housing of the device and as shown it is preferably made of insulating or non-conductive material. It may be threaded at its upper margin as at 2 to receive a correspondingly threaded enclosing member 3, which may be reduced as at 4 if desired, and perforated as at 5 to permit the conduit B to pass through it.
The member I is preferably provided with a hollow portion 'I within which are located some or all of the electric connections. As illustrated herewith, three -thermostatic elements 8, 9 and I0 are shown, one or another of which may be connected to the central contact member II. Wires I2, I3 and I4 are connected with the thermostats 8, 9 and I0 respectively. The details of the thermostatic arrangement form no essential part of the present invention and will not be more fully described. The invention relates more particularly to the construction of the device rather than to the electrical connections and might be vapplied equally well to an apparatus which did not have any thermostatic arrangement.
The body I is provided with a reduced extension I5, which is exteriorly threaded as at I6 if desired, and is provided with a hollow portion I1.
Preferably molded in the extension I5 and lining a portion of the hollow I1 is a cap or closure member I8 which at its upper end has a laterally extending flange I9 which is engaged in the body of the material which forms the part I. As indicated, it is preferably molded in that manner. It is closed lat its outer end by the integral bottom portion 20. The body I5 is hollowed out as at 2 I. A shell 22 lies within the hollowed out portion and may, as indicated in Figure l, extend into lo the body of the member I5. It is preferably perforated as at 23, 23 and its end is open as at 24. As indicated, it is positioned about the cap member I8 and extends downwardly beyond it, but because its end is open and because it is provided 15 with a plurality of perforations 23, iluid may circulate freely inside the member 22 and between it and the cap I8 and about the latter.
A supporting member 25, which may be of insulating material, is supported upon the par-t II 20 and extends downwardly through the cavity II and into the cap member I8. Fixed upon it is an enlarged supporting member 26. A wire 21 leads from the contact member I0 and is wrapped about the support 26 as shown. This wire forms 25 the heating element. At its other end it passes upwardly and is connected as at 28 to an incoming wire 29.
Nothing is shown of the details of the wiring mechanism and these details form no part of thev 30 present invention, which may be embodied in any construction in which means are provided for a heating element and suitable electric connections to bring current to that element.
