Description

Quartz heating tube

This invention relates to a water heater, and more particularly to a quartz heating tube.

General water heaters are divided into two types: gas water heaters and electric water heaters. Gas-fired water heaters use gas as the main energy source to achieve the purpose of preparing hot water by burning liquefied petroleum gas or natural gas. The electric heating water heater has two types of storage type and instant type. The storage type water heater heats the water stored in the water storage tank by using an electric heater. The instant type water heater introduces water into the hollow electric heating tube to directly heat the water in the electric heating tube.

However, traditional water heaters still have many limitations in use. For example, a burner-type water heater must be installed in an outdoor ventilated area or installed in an indoor room with additional exhaust equipment to avoid the explosion caused by gas leakage and the problem of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by incomplete combustion; In the tube water heater, after the water in the water storage tank is used up, it is necessary to re-storage the water and wait for the water in the water storage tank to be heated to the required temperature before being used again, and the hot water cannot be provided immediately. That is, although the heating type of the hot water heater is fast, the amount of hot water outputted by the hot water heater is limited to the space inside the electric heating tube, which causes great inconvenience in use.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a quartz heating tube which is safe, provides hot water immediately, and has an unlimited amount of hot water.

The technical means adopted by the present invention to solve the problems of the prior art provides a quartz heating tube having an inner wall surface, an outer wall surface, and a tube enclosed by the inner wall surface. a heat generating layer formed on the inner wall surface of the quartz tubular body; and an electrode member extending along a longitudinal direction of the quartz tubular body and penetrating the sealed space in the tube of the quartz tubular body, the electrode member being electrically The heat generating layer is connected to the heat generating layer through the electrode member to generate heat energy in a water flow temperature rising space formed on the outer wall surface, thereby heating the water flowing through the water flow rising space.

In an embodiment of the invention, a quartz heating tube is further provided, further comprising a protective sleeve disposed on a periphery of the quartz tube body, wherein the tube wall of the protection sleeve is formed with a plurality of water circulation holes for supplying water The water circulation hole is in thermal contact with the outer wall surface of the quartz tube body.

In an embodiment of the invention, a quartz heating tube is provided, the protective sleeve being spaced apart from the quartz tube body, the water flow heating space being located between the protective sleeve and the quartz tube body.

In an embodiment of the invention, a quartz heating tube is provided, the heat generating layer being a semiconductor heating film.

In an embodiment of the invention, there is provided a quartz heating tube, the electrode member comprising a first electrode member and a second electrode member, the first electrode member having a length extending along a length of the quartz tube body An electrode rod portion and a first electrode ring portion connected to the first electrode rod portion and annularly attached to the heat generating layer, and the second electrode member has a first portion extending along a length direction of the quartz tube body a second electrode rod portion and a second electrode ring portion connected to the second electrode rod portion and annularly attached to the heat generating layer.

In an embodiment of the invention, a quartz heating tube is further provided, further comprising a support sleeve disposed on a periphery of the first electrode rod portion along a length direction of the quartz tube body.

The quartz heating tube of the present invention has the following effects. When the electrode member is electrically connected to the heat generating layer formed on the inner wall surface of the quartz tube body, the quartz tube body rapidly heats up to generate heat energy in the water flow heating space, so that the water flowing through the water flow heating space can be quickly reached. The required temperature provides instant hot water. Moreover, since the quartz heating pipe is heated by electric energy without using gas, it is safe from explosion and carbon monoxide poisoning, and is safe to use. In addition, since the quartz heater is profitable The water is heated by the high temperature of the outer wall surface so that the amount of hot water is not limited by the space inside the heating pipe.
