  • the heat conductor 100 can be made of a metal material (such as copper, etc.) or a heat conductive material such as stainless steel.
  • the heating channel 300 is used to transport the medium. When the medium passes through the heating channel 300, the heat conductor 100 transfers the heat generated by the heating layer 200 to the medium, thereby heating the medium.
  • the medium can be water or oil, etc., and this embodiment is described by taking water as an example.
  • the heat conductor 100 may be cylindrical, or other shapes, such as a square column, etc. This embodiment is described by taking a cylindrical shape as an example.
  • the heating channel 300 may have the same shape as the heat conductor 100, such as a circular channel, so as to have a higher flow area within a limited size.
  • the heating layer 200 can be a heating circuit formed by screen printing technology, which can be formed by printing a dielectric layer and a resistor layer in sequence.
  • the two ends of the heat conductor 100 have a certain width, and the area surrounding the circumference is used as a reserved section 500, and the reserved section 500 is used to connect with the water system.
  • the thick film heater needs to be connected with the water system, such as a water inlet mechanism and a water outlet mechanism can be installed at both ends of the thick film heater.

  • the area between the two reserved sections 500 on the heat conductor 100 is used as a printing section, and the printing section is used to print the heat conductor 100.
  • the area on the outer surface of the printing section that is not covered by the heat conductor 100 is the spacing area 400. Since there is no heating layer 200 arranged in the spacing area 400, no heat is generated when the thick film heater is in operation. Therefore, even if the inner wall of the heating channel 300 corresponding to the spacing area 400 is not covered by the medium, there will be no dry burning.
  • the spacer 400 may include a plurality of independent regions, and the center lines of the spacers 400 are arranged along the same busbar on the outer surface of the heat conductor 100.

Water flows into the thick film heater from one side and flows out from the other side. When the flow rate of the water flow is sufficient, the water flow fills the entire heating channel 300 in the thick film heater; when the flow rate of the water flow is insufficient, the water flow cannot fill the entire heating channel 300 in the thick film heater. At this time, due to the effect of gravity, the amount of water in the heating channel 300 covers the lower part, and the upper part forms a hollow part. The smaller the flow rate of the water flow, the larger the space of the hollow part, and the correspondingly larger the inner wall area not covered by the water flow, and the more serious the dry burning of the thick film heater.
  • the spacer 400 needs to be arranged at the position where dry burning is most likely to occur.
  • the thick film heater can be arranged in an inclined manner or in a horizontal manner. When arranged in an inclined manner, the position where dry burning is most likely to occur in the thick film heater is the upper surface of the higher end of the heat conductor 100; when arranged in a horizontal manner, the position where dry burning is most likely to occur in the thick film heater is the upper surface of the entire section of the heat conductor 100.
  • the spacer 400 When the thick film heater is arranged obliquely, the spacer 400 is arranged upward, which means that the spacer 400 is located on the upper surface of the higher end of the heat conductor 100 and is arranged toward the top of the thick film heater.
  • the spacer 400 When the thick film heater is arranged obliquely and horizontally, the spacer 400 is arranged upward, which means that the spacer 400 is arranged toward the top of the thick film heater. In this way, the spacer 400 is located at the top of the heat conductor 100.
  • the medium is insufficient, the top of the heating channel 300 is not covered by the medium, but because the spacer 400 at the top does not generate heat, the thick film heater will not dry burn when the medium is insufficient.
  • the heating layer 200 does not completely cover the surface of the thick film heater. And the area not covered by the heating layer 200 is arranged upward, so that when the thick film heater is in use, the part facing the upper device does not generate heat. When the medium is not enough to completely cover the thick film heater, there is a non-heating area in the uncovered part, thereby avoiding dry burning and overheating.
  • the spacing areas 400 are evenly arranged in the axial direction, and the entire section of the heat generating layer 200 is discontinuous in the circumferential direction.
  • the number of the spacer 400 is one.
  • the whole section of the heating layer 200 refers to the entire printed section.
  • the heating layer 200 is discontinuous in the circumferential direction at each position of the printed section, and the two ends of the formed spacer 400 extend to the reserved sections 500 at both ends of the heat conductor 100.
  • the thick film heater When the thick film heater is arranged, it can be arranged horizontally, and the center line of the spacer 400 is located at the top.
  • the medium in the heating channel 300 is insufficient, the top of the heating channel 300 is not covered by the medium, but since the spacer 400 does not generate heat, dry burning is avoided.
  • the heating layer 200 is evenly printed along the axial direction of the heat conductor 100, and a blank end is reserved in the circumferential direction to form a uniformly distributed spacing area 400, so that the printing of the heating layer 200 is simpler.
  • the area of the spacer 400 accounts for 5% to 15% of the outer surface area of the heat conductor 100 .
  • the outer surface area of the heat conductor 100 may refer to the outer surface area of the heat conductor 100 in the printing section.
  • the provision of the spacer 400 will lead to a decrease in the maximum calorific value of the thick film heater, and the larger the area of the spacer 400, the lower the maximum calorific value of the thick film heater, and the area proportion of the spacer 400 should not be too large.
  • the area of the spacer 400 By setting the area of the spacer 400 to account for 5% to 15% of the outer surface area of the heat conductor 100, the provision of the spacer 400 is prevented from affecting the heating performance of the thick film heater.
  • the area of the spacer region accounts for 7% of the outer surface area of the thermal conductor.
  • the thick film heater of the embodiment of the present application by setting the area of the spacing zone 400 to account for 7% of the outer surface area of the heat conductor 100, while avoiding dry burning of the thick film heater, the thick film heater is ensured to have sufficient heating performance.
  • the thick film heater may further include a conveying shaft 600 .
  • the conveying shaft 600 is disposed in the heat conductor 100 , and has a spiral sheet 610 formed along the axial direction of the conveying shaft 600 , which is used to cooperate with the inner wall of the heating channel 300 to form a spiral channel.
  • the original heating channel 300 is replaced by a spiral channel. After entering the heat conductor 100, the medium flows along the spiral channel. Compared with the straight heating channel, the spiral channel increases the surface area of the water flow, thereby improving the efficiency of water heating without changing the heating power and size of the heating tube.
  • a certain interval can be set between the outer diameter of the spiral piece 610 and the inner wall of the heating channel 300.
  • the interval should not be too large.
  • the outer diameter of the spiral piece 610 can be 0.5 to 1.5 mm narrower than the diameter of the heating channel 300.
  • the outer diameter of the spiral blade 610 can be 0.5 mm narrower than the diameter of the heating channel 300, reducing the flow rate of water flowing in a straight line along the axial direction of the thick film heater in the gap between the spiral blade 610 and the inner wall of the heating channel 300, allowing the water to flow in the spiral channel, thereby improving the heating effect.
  • the length L of the spiral piece 610 can be equal to the axial length of the heating layer 200. If the length of the spiral piece 610 is too long, the water flow at both ends of the spiral channel cannot be heated, but will lead to a decrease in the overall flow rate of the water flow. If the length of the spiral piece 610 is too short, the water flow at both ends of the heating channel 300 is large and the heating effect is poor. Therefore, when the length of the spiral piece 610 can be equal to the axial length of the heating layer 200, the water flow can be heated most effectively and the flow rate is less affected.
  • the thickness of the spiral sheet 610 can be as thin as possible while ensuring the strength.

  • the sealing portion 620 closes the heating channel 300 at both ends of the spiral piece 610, so that the spiral channel is connected to the outer space through the through hole 621.
  • the through holes 621 at both ends can serve as the water inlet or outlet of the spiral channel.
  • the spiral channel is used to transport the medium in the thick film heater, so that the medium is evenly heated, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the thick film heater.
  • the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 is greater than the spiral pitch in the middle section.
  • the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 refers to the first distance L1 between the connecting surface of the through hole 621 and the spiral channel and the facing spiral blade, and the spiral pitch in the middle section of the spiral sheet 610 is the second distance L2 between two adjacent spiral blades.
  • the spiral sheet 610 since the spiral sheet 610 is continuous, the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 gradually decreases as it approaches the middle section.
  • the cross-sectional area of the spiral channel is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the external water channel. Therefore, when the water flows into the spiral channel from the external water channel or flows out from the spiral water channel to the external water channel, the water may flow poorly due to the sudden narrowing of the water channel.
  • the cross-sectional area of the spiral channel refers to the area of the cross section along the opposite direction of the channel perpendicular to the spiral channel.
  • the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 By making the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 larger than the spiral pitch in the middle section, the water flow space at both ends of the spiral water channel is increased, thereby reducing the sudden change of the flow when the water flows into the spiral channel from the external water channel or flows out from the spiral water channel to the external water channel, making the water flow smoother.
  • the ratio of the spiral pitch of the middle section of the spiral sheet 610 to the axial length of the heating layer 200 is 1:3 to 1:8.

  • the resistance tracks in each heating area may be arranged at the same interval, but the width and length of the resistance tracks in each heating area are different, so that the heating areas have different heating values.
  • the heater can be connected to an external water supply circuit, and the heater can be arranged horizontally or tilted. Water flows into the heater from one side and flows out from the other side. When the flow rate of the water flow is sufficient, the water flow fills the entire heating channel 300 in the heater; when the flow rate of the water flow is insufficient, the water flow cannot fill the entire heating channel 300 in the heater. At this time, due to the effect of gravity, the amount of water in the heating channel 300 covers the lower part, and the upper part forms a hollow part.

  • the medium is insufficient, the top of the heating channel 300 is not covered by the medium, but because the heating area with the smallest heat amount at the top does not generate heat, the heater will not dry burn when the medium is insufficient.
  • the heating layer is unevenly arranged on the outer surface of the heat conductor 100 to form a plurality of heating areas with different heat amounts, and the heating area with the smallest heat amount is arranged upward, so that when the heater is in use, the heat amount of the part facing the upper equipment is lower, and when the medium is not sufficient to completely cover the heater, the heat amount of the uncovered part is lower, thereby avoiding dry burning and overheating.
  • the heating area includes a first heating area 210 and a second heating area 220 , the heat generated by the first heating area 210 is less than that of the second heating area 220 , and the first heating area 210 is evenly arranged along the axial direction.
  • the heating layer 200 is divided into two heating areas, the resistance track density in the first heating area 210 is smaller than the resistance track density in the second heating area 220, or the resistance track length or width in the first heating area 210 is smaller than the length or width of the second heating area 220.
  • the first heating area 210 is evenly arranged along the axial direction, so that when the first heating area 210 is arranged upward, the upper part of the heater evenly forms a heating area with reduced heat along the axial direction.
  • the uncovered area contains the first heating area 210 to the greatest extent, thereby avoiding dry burning. At the same time, it also makes the printing of the heating layer 200 simpler.

  • the area of the first heating region 210 By setting the area of the first heating region 210 to account for 5% to 15% of the area of the heating layer 200, it is avoided that the setting of the first heating region 210 affects the heating performance of the heater.
  • the area of the first heating region 210 accounts for 7% of the area of the heating layer 200 .
  • the heater of the embodiment of the present application by setting the area of the first heating region 210 to account for 7% of the area of the heating layer 200, the heater is prevented from dry burning while ensuring that the heater has sufficient heating performance.

  • the original heating channel 300 is replaced by a spiral channel. After entering the heat conductor 100, the medium flows along the spiral channel.

  • the outer diameter of the spiral blade 610 can be 0.5 mm narrower than the diameter of the heating channel 300, reducing the flow rate of water flowing in a straight line along the axial direction of the heater in the gap between the spiral blade 610 and the inner wall of the heating channel 300, allowing the water to flow in the spiral channel, thereby improving the heating effect.
  • the length L of the spiral piece 610 can be equal to the axial length of the heating layer 200. If the length of the spiral piece 610 is too long, the water flow at both ends of the spiral channel cannot be heated, but will lead to a decrease in the overall flow rate of the water flow. If the length of the spiral piece 610 is too short, the water flow at both ends of the heating channel 300 is large, and the heating effect is poor. Therefore, when the length of the spiral piece 610 can be equal to the axial length of the heating layer 200, the water flow can be heated most effectively and the flow rate is less affected.

  • the through holes 621 at both ends can serve as the water inlet or outlet of the spiral channel.
  • the medium is transported in the heater by utilizing the spiral channel so that the medium is heated evenly, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the heater.
  • the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 is greater than the spiral pitch in the middle section.
  • the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 refers to the first distance L1 between the connecting surface of the through hole 621 and the spiral channel and the facing spiral blade, and the spiral pitch in the middle section of the spiral sheet 610 is the second distance L2 between two adjacent spiral blades.
  • the spiral sheet 610 since the spiral sheet 610 is continuous, the spiral pitch at both ends of the spiral sheet 610 gradually decreases as it approaches the middle section.
