Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to heating elements that are used to heat a liquid bath such as a chemical bath. More particularly, the present invention pertains to a device and method for protectively covering a heating element used in a liquid bath.
  • Heated baths such as heated chemical baths are used for a variety of different purposes.
  • One context in which such baths are used involves treating the surface of an object to which another part is to be attached.
  • seals such as oil seals are oftentimes comprised of a metal part and a rubber part that is molded or otherwise attached to the metal part.
  • One way of roughening the surface of the metal part involves placing the metal part in a zinc phosphate bath.
  • the zinc phosphate reacts with the metal and dissolves some of the metal.
  • zinc phosphate crystals grow or form on the surface of the metal part, thus producing a somewhat roughened surface on the metal part that facilitates attachment of the rubber part.
  • Zinc phosphate baths are also used in a variety of other contexts. For example, prior to painting an automobile body, the metal body is placed in a zinc phosphate bath to roughen the surface of the metal body so that the paint will better attach to the metal body.
  • Chemical baths such as those described are typically heated.
  • one or more heating elements e.g. , heating coils
  • the metal that is dissolved by the chemical bath tends to be attracted to the heating element, thus causing sludge to form on the heating element.
  • This sludge can build up relatively quickly and form a coating on the heating element that insulates the heating element and undesirably diminishes the ability of the heating element to heat the chemical bath. Thus, it is usually necessary to remove the heating element from the chemical bath and employ relatively expensive chemicals or mechanical mechanisms to remove this coating from the heating element.
  • a method of protecting a heating element in a chemical bath involves placing a heating element in an interior of a sleeve so that the heating element is surrounded by the sleeve, and immersing the heating element in a chemical bath so that the sleeve and the heating element are located in the chemical bath, with the sleeve preventing the chemical bath from coming into direct contact with the heating element.
  • the heating element can be placed in the interior of the sleeve either before immersing the sleeve in the chemical bath or after immersing the sleeve in the chemical bath.
  • Another aspect of the invention involves the combination of an immersion heating element for heating a chemical bath and a protective sleeve for protecting the heating element.
  • the heating element is loosely received within the interior of the sleeve so that the heating element is surrounded by the sleeve and is prevented from directly contacting a chemical bath when the heating element within the sleeve is immersed into the chemical bath.
  • the device includes a sleeve made of Teflon ® material, with the sleeve having an interior for receiving a heating element, a periphery and an opening along one portion of the periphery of the sleeve for permitting a heating element to be placed in the sleeve.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of the sleeve that is used to cover and protect a heating element in a chemical bath according to one embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 A is a front view of a sleeve that is used to cover and protect a heating element in a chemical bath according to another embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2B is a perspective view of a portion of the sleeve shown in FIG. 2 A illustrating the way in which the sides of the sleeve are secured together;
  • FIG. 3 is a front view of a sleeve covering a heating element in a chemical bath according to still another embodiment of the present invention

  • a heating element 14 that is immersed in the bath 16.
  • the heating element 14 is positioned in the protective cover 10, which in the illustrated embodiment of the present invention is in the form of a sleeve or bag 12.
  • the heating element 14 could be a hot water heating element comprised of interconnected pipes 28 or other types of known heating elements used for heating a liquid bath.
  • the size and configuration of the sleeve 12 can be varied depending upon the size and configuration of the heating element 14.
  • the sleeve 12 has an opening along one portion of its periphery and is closed along the remainder of its periphery.
  • the sleeve 12 is generally rectangular in shape and is closed along the bottom 37 and two opposite sides 36, 36, while being open at the top 18.
  • the open top 18 of the sleeve 12 is positioned above the surface of the bath 16 so that the liquid forming the bath 16 is unable to enter the sleeve 12.
  • the sleeve 12 can be formed of two generally rectangular sheets of material that are sealed or otherwise secured together along three sides, while being unsealed or unsecured along the fourth side to form the open top 18.
  • the sleeve 12 is made of Teflon ® fluorocarbon film.
  • the sleeve 12 is made of heat-sealable Teflon ® (FEP - fluorinated ethylene propylene).
  • Teflon ® is particularly advantageous as it allows the sleeve or bag 12 to be fabricated from two generally similarly sized and configured sheets that are heat sealed together along three sides to form the sleeve 12 shown in FIG. 1.
  • Teflon ® material can also be used.
  • heat-sealable Teflon ® (FEP) is quite desirable, not only from the standpoint of facilitating fabrication of the sleeve, but also from the standpoint of being more flexible than other forms of Teflon ® .
  • the heat-sealable Teflon ® is able to tolerate bending and kinking to a greater extent than other forms of Teflon ® .
  • heat-sealable Teflon ® (FEP) is more slick than other forms of Teflon ® because it is extruded, and this provides additional advantages.
  • the sleeve or bag 12 generally surrounds substantially the entire heating element 14 or heating portion of the heating element, with the open top 18 of the sleeve 12 being positioned above the surface 20 of the liquid bath 16 so that the liquid is unable to enter the sleeve 12.
  • the pressure 22 of the liquid bath 16 presses the sleeve 12 closely against the heating element 14. Heat is thus transferred through the sleeve 12 to the chemical bath 16 so that efficient heat transfer takes place.
  • a small amount of water may migrate through the sleeve 12, such water is able to escape through the open top 18 of the sleeve 12 as vapor.
  • heat-sealable Teflon ® is a particularly useful type of Teflon ® material to employ in fabricating the sleeve 12 of the present invention as it allows the sleeve 12 to be fabricated by simply sealing together two sheets along at least a portion of their peripheries (e.g., along three sides in the case of rectangular sheets designed to produce a rectangular-shaped sleeve).
  • Teflon ® materials that are not heat-sealable can be employed.

Thus, the material selected should not be susceptible to degradation over an extended period of time from the heat and chemicals associated with the bath.
  • the plates 34 can be made of plastic while the bolts 31 can be fabricated from stainless steel. Once again, other materials capable of withstanding the heat and chemicals existing in the bath can be employed. Also, although the embodiment shown in FIG. 2A involves bolts 31 passing through the edges of the sheets 24' , 24' , it is to be understood that the bolts could be positioned outside the edges of the PTFE Teflon ® sheets 24' , 24' .

  • the sleeve or bag 12 can be formed by utilizing two sheets of the bondable PTFE Teflon ® material.
  • the use of bondable PTFE Teflon ® material provides the advantage that suitable adhesives can be employed. That is, bondable PTFE Teflon ® material is typically manufactured by etching the surface of the material with hydrofluoric acid. Adhesives can then adhere to the etched surface of the bondable PTFE Teflon ® material.
