An electric heater for heating a liquid or frozen substance in a motor vehicle. In particular, an electric heater for heating electric car batteries or an HVAC system or for a system for reducing the environmental pollution of the motor vehicle. The electric heater includes a metal sheet adapted to generate heat when it is crossed by an electric current. two polymeric layers between which the metal sheet is arranged, and two metal layers, between which the two polymeric layers are arranged. The two metal layers are hermetically sealed to each other defining a casing, which prevents the substance to be heated from coming into contact with the two polymeric layers and with the metal sheet. A plurality of metal flaps extend transversely from an external face of at least one metal layer of the two metal layers.

Disclosed is a portable radiant heating device that has a base, a radiant heat source mounted in a tiltable reflector, and a safety interlock device located in the base. The safety interlock uses a pressure-sensitive foot that prevents the heater from producing infrared heat when not in contact with a mounting surface. The safety interlock device also prevents the heater from producing infrared heat when the reflector is not tilted so as to prevent excessive amounts of infrared heat from being directed towards the mounting surface.

A positive temperature coefficient electric heater for a vehicle includes a support part, a control circuitry, and a first and a second radiating layers overlapping one another, each radiating layer having a plurality of heating rods extending from the support part and connected in parallel to the control circuitry. Each radiating layer has a first layer sector and a second layer sector controlled independently of one another. The radiating layers may be controlled independently of one another. In the first radiating layer, the second section of the heating rods is capable of generating greater thermal power than the first section of the heating rods and, in the second radiating layer, the first section of the heating rods is capable of generating greater thermal power than the second section of the heating rods.

The present invention relates to an electric radiator (1) for a ventilation, heating and/or air conditioning system, comprising a heating body (2), an electrical connection interface (3) and at least one temperature measurement device (4) arranged across an air flow (6) that is able to pass through the heating body (2) and comprising at least one temperature sensor (41) and a body (42) for supporting the temperature sensor (41) extending in a transverse direction remote from the heating body (2), characterized in that the temperature measurement device (4) is electrically connected to the electrical connection interface (3) of the radiator (1) through a connection cable (5) that extends from a transverse end (420) of the body (42) for supporting the temperature sensor.

A heating element comprises a main body having a three-dimensional matrix with an open structure including openings and internal voids, cavities and/or pores extending throughout the main body. The three-dimensional matrix is provided as a lattice having a repeating unit cell extending in three directions. The present heating element is adapted for maximised surface area so as to provide an effective and efficient thermal energy transfer medium.

An electrical connection interface (100) of a device for electrically heating a flow of air flowing within a ventilation, heating and/or air conditioning system of a motor vehicle comprises, in a panel (102), at least one notch that is dimensioned for receiving a connection terminal (126) mounted at the end of an electrode of a heating element of the electric heating device. The electrical connection interface comprises at least one device for limiting the shear (101) of the connection terminal which extends proud from the panel (102) adjacent to the notch.

Provided is a heating blower, comprising an air duct, a motor and a wind wheel arranged in the air duct, and a heating device arranged at a first air outlet of the air duct; the wind wheel is fixed to a rotating shaft of the motor; the heating device comprises a housing, an electric heater and a moving assembly; the housing is sleeved on the first air outlet, forming an inner chamber, which comprises a first area facing directly to the first air outlet and a second area not facing directly to the first air outlet; the electric heater is arranged on the moving assembly, and moves between the first area and the second area along with the moving assembly, so that an airflow blown from the first air outlet switches between a state of passing the electric heater and a state of not passing the electric heater, and is blown out from a second air outlet provided at the housing.
