Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heat-generating element having at least one PTC element, on both sides thereof contact plates, a housing, which forms at least one opening for receiving the at least one PTC element and has a connection side, are exposed at the contact plates associated contact tongues.
  • the heat generating element according to the invention preferably has a wedge element with a wider and a narrower end surface, which are connected to each other via first and second wedge surfaces, wherein the first wedge surface extends parallel to one of the contact plates and the second wedge surface is exposed on the outside of the housing.
  • Such a heat-generating element is from the EP 1 921 896 A1 known.
  • the housing is formed by two housing elements which can be connected to each other and are each formed as a plastic injection molded parts.
  • the contact sheet and on the outside respectively provided thereon insulating layers are thereby encapsulated with the housing element each forming plastic material to form a unit of contact sheet, insulating layer and housing element.
  • Such heat-generating elements are used in particular for heating liquids, especially in a motor vehicle.
  • a typical multiple heat generating elements receiving electrical heater has one or more parallel to each other extending pockets.
  • the pockets separate a circulation chamber for the fluid to be heated from a connection side, in which usually the electrical contacts are exposed and connected. Since the chambers are formed of a metallic and therefore electrically conductive material, a good electrical insulation between the heat-generating element inserted into the pocket and the walls bounding the pocket inside is of great importance for the reliability of the electrical heating device.
  • the generic heat generating elements are usually first inserted into the bag. Thereafter, the wedge member is displaced relative to the inner wall of the pocket and an outer surface of the heat generating element to key the heat generating element in the pocket.
  • the wedge element lies with its first wedge surface parallel to one of the contact plates, usually with an intermediate layer an insulating layer, and with its second wedge surface usually parallel to a slightly tapered inner surface of the pocket. Accordingly, there is a planar contact between the heat generating element and the bag through the intermediary of the wedge element.
  • the other contact plate usually also with the interposition of an insulating layer, on the inner surface of the bag, on the other side with the interposition of the wedge element.
  • this arrangement is essential, since due to the self-regulating properties of the PTC elements for a good, symmetrical as possible and thus mutual heat dissipation is to ensure. Otherwise, the PTC element becomes too hot and the self-regulating properties of the PTC element prevent further absorption of electrical energy for heat generation.
  • the contact sheet must be completely surrounded by an insulating layer, which insulating layer must also cover edge regions of the contact sheet to safely prevent exposure of electrically conductive surfaces on the outside of the heat generating element.
  • the encapsulation of the contact sheet, which is known from the prior art, together with the insulating layer can lead to defects, in particular to the insulating layer, due to the thermal entry during injection molding and / or the injection pressures prevailing in the process. Even microscopic cracks justify the risk of a high rejection, since these are not recognized correctly in the production, so that faulty heat-generating elements are installed in the electric heater and make them unusable altogether.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a heat generating element which completely or partially avoids the problems described above.
  • the generic heat-generating element is further developed in that at least one of the contact plates has a bent tab, which is accommodated in an opening formed by the housing insertion.
  • the arched insertion tab extends substantially transversely to a contact surface formed by the contact plate and usually towers over this contact surface, i. goes inward toward the interior of the housing and extends in the thickness direction of the PTC element.
  • the housing has an insertion opening in which the insertion tab is received.
  • the tuck is usually held with little play, preferably without play in the insertion. Due to the interaction of insertion tab and insertion opening, the contact plate is held in a direction parallel to its contact surface for the at least one PTC element substantially immovably on the housing.
  • the contact plate is, however, connected by inserting the tuck into the insertion only after the manufacture of the housing with this. Accordingly, the housing of the heat-generating element can be made much easier. In particular, it may be formed in one piece, so that the housing is first produced as a simple, uniform injection molded part and later fitted with the layers forming the layer structure.
  • At least one latching projection protrudes from a surface of the push-in tab which is oriented substantially at right angles to a contact surface for the PTC element, which is formed by the associated contact plate. which is locked to the housing.
  • the locking projection should preferably be formed with respect to low insertion forces as a point locking cam and locked to the housing.
  • a plurality of latching projections can be provided side by side on the surface aligned at right angles to the contact surface for the PTC element.
  • the corresponding latching projection is preferably formed by punching machining of the contact sheet.

  • the contact plate can be prepared as a simple stamped and bent part and then joined to the housing in a simple manner.
  • the contact plate preferably has a contact projection between the contact tongue and the contact surface for the at least one PTC element.
  • the housing has a plant shoulder associated with the investment projection.
  • the housing and the contact plate are dimensioned such that the push-in tab can be inserted into the insertion opening when the contact shoulder bears against the contact shoulder by pivoting about the contact shoulder.

  • the contact plate is preferably surmounted on its side facing the tab from a stamped by punching contact lug, which can form the end of the contact tongue or is connected to this.
  • the housing-side receptacle and the contact lug form a guide, which causes, as part of the insertion movement of the contact lug in the recording of the investment projection is necessarily applied against the abutment shoulder.
  • This abutment of the investment projection against the abutment shoulder marks the end of the insertion movement for a fitter. Thereafter, the installer only has to pivot the contact plate around the pivot point thus formed in order to securely insert the insertion tab into the insertion opening.

  • the housing preferably has a passage opening, which is usually part of the above-described receptacle for the contact lug.
  • the passage surrounds circumferentially the contact lug and simplifies the installation of the same.

  • the sliding plate can first be introduced via the securing tab in the associated securing opening of the housing and pre-fixed there. A pivoting about the pivot point formed thereby brings the locking bar behind the locking projection, so that the sliding plate is latched at the opposite end portions of the housing with the housing. Both compounds are preferably form-fitting.
