3 Claims. (Cl. 219-38) This invention relates to immersion heaters designed for mounting in an opening in the wall of a liquid heating vessel, particularly to such heaters which utilize an electrimal resistor to protect the heater from corrosive galvanic action, and it has for an object to provide an improved assembly for a heater of this type.
Another object of the invention is to facilitate assembly of the various elements of an immersion heater and their retention in assembled relation prior to installation in a liquid heating vessel.
In accordance with the invention, the terminal portions of a tubular sheate-d electrical resistance heater extend through, and are secured to, a mounting plate having a central recess and a surrounding flange, the ends of the heater sheath being disposed in the recess. A clamping plate overlies the flange and is electrically insulated therefrom by a layer of electrically non-conductive insulating material interposed therebetween. An electrical resistor is disposed in the recess of the mounting plate and has a pair of electrical leads, one of which is electrically connected to the mounting plate and the other to the clamping plate. A body of thermal setting insulating material is deposited in the recess while in liquid form and when set completely covers and protects the electrical resistor, in addition to sealing the ends of the heater sheath. When the heater assembly is installed in a water tank or the like, the clamping plate and the mounting plate are usually bolted or screwed to a mounting pad on the outer surface of the tank wall, with the resistance heating element extending into the tank interior through an opening in the mounting pad. With the tank protected by a magnesium anode or the like,
flow of galvanic current from the anode to the heater element will occur, unless the heater is suitably insulated electrically from the tank. Accordingly, an electrically insulating member is interposed between the heater assembly and the mounting pad, and the bolt holes through the mounting plate are of larger diameter than the aligned holes through the overlying clamping plate and interposed insulator, so that the bolts or screws will be I spaced from the mounting plate as they pass therethrough. With the heater and its mounting plate thus insulated from the tank, the flow of current from the anode to the tank via the heater assembly is limited to that permitted by the electrical resistor, which provides the sole and restricted electrical path through the heater assembly to the tank.
It will be apparent that during shipping and handling of the heater assembly prior to installation, the exact correct relationship of the clamping plate and the mounting plate must be maintained, so that the mounting bolts will have proper clearance with respect to the walls of the bolt holes through the mounting plate, when installed.
The present invention provides for this necessary maintenance of correct relationship of the various parts "ofth'e heater assembly. In one form of the invention,
it sets. In another form of the invention, a central opening in the insulator is larger than a corresponding opening in the clamping plate, so that when the parts are assembled, a recess or space is provided, in the plane of the insulator, between the mounting plate and the clamping plate. When liquid thermal setting material is poured into the mounting plate recess to imbed the resistor, a suflicient quantity is used to also fill the space between the mounting plate and clamping plate. When this material sets, it engages and holds the parts assembled.
The foregoing and other objects are effected by the invention as will be apparent from the following description and claims taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this application, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a heater assembly constructed in accordance with the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view, taken along the line 11-11 of Fig. 1, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged end view of the assembly shown in Fig. 1, with portions of the structure broken away to more clearly illustrate inventive features thereof;
Fig. 4 is a schematic view of a heating tank incorporating the heater assembly of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view, taken along the line V-V of Fig. 4, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows;
Fig. 6 is an end view in perspective of a modified heater assembly;
Pig. 7 is a vertical sectional view taken along the line VI-VI of Fig. 6, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows; and,
Fig. 8 is an exploded perspective view of the assembly of Figs. 6 and 7.
Referring to the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 to 5 inclusive, the heater assembly shown at 10 is adapted for mounting in a side wall opening in a heater tank 11, equipped with the usual magnesium rod 12. In the assembly 10, the heater 15 is of the well-known tubular sheated electrical resistance type, including an electrical heating element (not shown) housed in a tubular sheath 16, and maintained spaced therefrom by suitable insulating material packed between the heater and the sheath. A mounting plate 17 is centrally deformed, as at 18, to provide a recess 19 surrounded by a fiat flange 21. The terminal portions of the heater 15 extend through appropriate openings in the end wall of the recess 19 and terminate in the recess. The sheath 16 is electrically connected to the recess wall, as by soldering, brazing, or the like.
A flat clamping plate 22 is disposed adjacent the flange 21 of the mounting plate and is insulated therefrom by a separator 23 of electrically non-conductive material disposed therebetween. It will be noted that both the clamping plate 22 and the separator 23 are provided with central openings, and that the opening of the separator 23 is larger than that of the clamping plate 22, with the result that there is provided between the mounting plate flange 21 and the clamping plate 22 an inwardly opening recess 24.
An electrical resistor 26 is positioned within the recess 19 and has its terminals connected one to the mounting plate 17 and the other to the clamping plate 22, the connections preferably being made by soldering, brazing, or the like to provide good electrical connections between the leads and the respective plates 17 and 22. Thus the resistor 26 and its leads provide for limited flow of electrical current from the mounting plate 17 to the clamping plate 22, these two plates being otherwise elec trically insulated from each other, as previously mentioned.
ing holes .28 inthe underlying flange 21 of the mounting plate 17, the holes 28 being materially larger than the .holes 27, so that the studs 25a will be spaced from the walls of the holes .28 in the mounting plate, thereby insuring that the latter plate is electrically separated from the studs (Fig. 5). When the assembly is mounted on the pad 25, a suitable electric insulating gasket 31 is .interposed between the mounting plate and the pad, with the result that the only electrical flow path from the heater to the tank 11 is via the mounting plate 17, the resistor 26, the clamping plate 22 and the studs a. Thus, any flow .of galvanic :current from the magnesium rod 12 to the heater 15 and thence to the tank 11 is controlled and limited by the resistor .26.
It will be apparent from the above discussion that it is important that the clamping plate 22 and the mounting plate 17 be maintained in fixed position with' respect to each other so that the necessary clearance between the studs 25a and the walls of the holes 28 will always be maintained. in order to properly .fix these two plates with respect to each other, the present invention utilizes a body of suitable thermal setting insulating material 35, .for example, epoxy resin, filling the recess 19 and the space 24 between the mounting plate flange 21 and the clamping plate 22 and adhering to the flange and plate. This insulating material is deposited in the recess and space while in liquid form, and when cured it becomes permanently hardened and cements the various associated elements in fixed position. To this end, the plates 17 and 22 and the separator 23 are suitably positioned in a jig until the liquid insulating material has solidified. Thereafter, the parts may be handled normallyfor packaging, shipment and assembly, without danger of relative displacement.
Since the resistor 26 .is positioned within'the recess 19, it is completely embedded in, and covered by, the thermal setting insulating material and thereby fully protected fromdamage.
The resistance heating element of the heater 15 is provided with the usual terminal pins 29 extending outside the recess 19 from the terminal portions of the sheath 16, .and carrying the usual terminal strips 30. Since the terminal portions of the sheath are disposed within the recess 19 they are hermetically sealed by thethermal setting material 35 which fills the recess.
Referring to the modification shown in Figs. 6 to 8 inclusive, this construction differs from ,that previously described in connection with Figs. 1 to 5 inclusive primarily in that, instead of relying upon the filling of the space 24 between the mounting plate flange 21 and the clamping plate 22 wtih thermal setting material 35 to hold the elements in alignment, the opposed surfaces of the flange 21 and clamping plate 22 are coated with the liquid thermal setting material 35 just prior to assembly and 'the insulator 23 then positioned between the adhesively coated surfaces and the three elements clamped together inafixture until the two coatingslhavesolidified, thereby cementing the parts in assembledrelation. With this construction, the opening in the clamping plate may .be as large as theopening in the separator 23 since the recess 24 is no longer required, resulting in .a reduction in weight of the assembly, and the amount of thermal setting material 35 utilized in the recess 19 isareduced, with a consequent cost reduction.
While the invention has been shown in several forms,.it will be .obvious to those skilled ,in theart that it :is 1101'. so limited, but is susceptible of various other changes 4 and modifications without departing from the spirit thereof.
