An aspect of the present disclosure provides a flow channel cap plate that constitutes a combustion chamber assembly including a combustion chamber and a plurality of insulating pipelines disposed on left/right side surfaces of the combustion chamber, the flow channel cap plate forming an insulating flow channel by covering the front surface of the combustion chamber, the flow channel cap plate including an inlet part including an inlet, and an inlet flow channel cap covering the front surface of the combustion chamber, an inlet space part is formed by covering the front surface of the combustion chamber with the inlet flow channel cap, the inlet is an entrance of the insulating flow channel, the plurality of insulating pipelines include a plurality of inlet insulating pipelines, and the inlet space part is a space that communicates the inlet with the plurality of inlet insulating pipelines.

A lid for a heat generating device in which the heat generating device has a body with a combustion chamber disposed therein. The lid includes an air moving device, an air intake housing, and a hinge. The air moving device is configured to generate a flow of air. The air intake housing is disposed between the lid and the air moving device. The air intake housing extends out from the lid to cantilever the air moving device out from the lid. The hinge is disposed between the lid and the body and proximal to the air intake housing. The hinge is configured to provide a pivot for the lid. A weight of the air moving device counter balances at least a portion of a weight of the lid to ease pivoting of the lid into an open position.

A sanitary washing device according to an embodiment comprises a heating part, a nozzle configured to jet water heated by the heating part toward human private parts; a controlling part configured to control at least one of the heating part and the nozzle, and a monitoring part. The monitoring part is configured to diagnose a failure of the controlling part and to prohibit at least one of heating in the heating part and jetting from the nozzle when the controlling part fails. The controlling part is configured to diagnose a failure of the monitoring part and to prohibit at least one of heating in the heating part and jetting from the nozzle when the monitoring part fails.

[Problem] To provide a water heating apparatus which has a inverse combustion type burner installed within a case for a heat exchanger so as to cause heat to be transferred from an outer peripheral flange of the burner to the heat exchanger case. [Solution] This water heating apparatus is provided with: a fan for supplying combustion air; a chamber case which is connected to the fan and which has set therein a chamber where an air-fuel mixture is formed; a inverse combustion type burner for combusting the air-fuel mixture supplied from the chamber; a heat exchanger in which combustion gas generated by the burner is introduced into a case where water is heated; and sealing member which is installed between a peripheral flange of the chamber case and a peripheral flange of the case, wherein the burner is set inside the case, and an outer peripheral flange of the burner is anchored to an inner wall surface of the case.

A secondary heat exchanger includes a case and a first heat transfer tube portion. The case includes a box body and a first closing member. The box body is provided with a second opening on one side in a third direction. A first assembly in which the first heat transfer tube portion and the first closing member are assembled integrally is mounted to the box body so that a plurality of first heat transfer tubes are is inserted into the box body from the second opening and so that the second opening is closed by the first closing member.

A PTC heating assembly includes a heating cell comprising a PTC element and conductor elements electrically abutting the PTC element. The heating cell is accommodated in a heater housing. The heater housing is manufactured with undersize relative to the heating cell so that the heating cell, after insertion into the heater housing, is held under pretension between mutually opposing walls of the heater housing. Accordingly, in the method according to the invention, the heater housing is elastically widened when the heating cell is inserted into the heater housing.

An electric water heater has upper and lower electric resistance type heating elements respectively controlled by a single pole, double throw upper thermostat and a single pole, single throw lower thermostat. The upper and lower thermostats are operatively interconnected by a wiring harness having outer conductor end portions that are connected to a terminal block portion of an external junction box to provide the water heater with a variety of heating element operating modes without having to replace either of the thermostats, vary the wiring harness interconnections therebetween, or vary the connection between the outer conductor end portions and the terminal block. The water heater may thus be advantageously manufactured in a single variant that may be easily and quickly modified in the field to selectively alter the heating element control mode of the water heater.

A combined heat and power system generates energy and efficiently captures a percentage of such energy that would otherwise be lost to, among other things, control the temperature and humidity of a house or dwelling.

A microwave heating apparatus is provided herein comprising a tubing conduit consisting of two or more removable bend portions connected to each other. The tubing conduit is supported by a support system. Each removable bend portion includes a microwave emitter to heat a fluid flowing through the conduit. The apparatus can replace or be integrated into existing heating equipment used in, for example, steam cracking of hydrocarbons. Also provided are pipe segments, such as spools, that are adapted for heating a fluid by applying microwave energy. The pipe segments can be lined with microwave absorbing materials and comprise an opening through which an insert comprising a microwave emitter can be removably inserted and retained.
