A combustion chamber assembly unit, especially for a vaporizing burner and particularly especially for a vehicle heater, includes at least two combustion chamber elements (12, 20, 26, 32, 50, 52, 64, 102, 126) with wall areas (12, 34, 46, 54, 64, 104, 130, 140, 142). The at least two combustion chamber elements are arranged in a radially staggered pattern in relation to a longitudinal axis (L) of the combustion chamber and are fixed to one another by laser welding.

The invention relates to an evaporator burner (100) for a mobile heating device operated with liquid fuel, comprising: a mixture-preparing region (2) for mixing fuel with combustion air to form an air-fuel mixture, a fuel supply (1) for supplying liquid fuel to the mixture-preparing region (2), a combustion-air supply (B) for supplying combustion air to the mixture-preparing region (2), a reaction region (3) arranged downstream of the mixture-preparing region (2) for reacting the air-fuel mixture, heat thus being released, and an evaporator body (9) for evaporating the liquid fuel, which evaporator body extends in an axial direction in the mixture-preparing region (2) at a distance from a side wall and has an outer peripheral surface designed as a fuel-evaporating surface, which outer peripheral surface is arranged in such a way that the supplied combustion air flows around the outer peripheral surface.

A flow-directing element for a heating apparatus, in particular a heating apparatus with an evaporator burner, having a body which comprises a laterally arranged inflow region on an underside of the flow-directing element, having a centrally arranged outflow region, which includes a through-passage from an underside of the flow-directing element to an upper side of the flow-directing element, the upper side being located opposite the underside, and having at least one guide element, which is arranged such that it allows flow to be guided from the inflow region to the outflow region.
