A fluid-heating device for heating fluid with a heater includes: a heating portion that is molded so as to cover the surrounding of the heater; and a support body integrally cast into the heating portion, the heating portion being molded in a state in which the heater is supported by the support body in a die for molding the heating portion.

Fluid-heating device and manufacturing method thereof

A fluid-heating device for heating fluid includes: a heater having a heat generating part, the heat generating part being configured to generate heat upon application of current; an electric component configured to control the application of the current to the heater; a tank having an opening portion, the tank being configured to accommodate the heat generating part; a top-plate portion configured to close the opening portion of the tank, the top-plate portion being configured to form a fluid chamber through which the fluid flows; and a first communication port and a second communication port configured to allow the fluid to flow through the fluid chamber; wherein the electric component is provided on an outer side of the fluid chamber along the top-plate portion.

Fluid-heating device

A fluid-heating device for heating fluid includes a heater unit configured to have a heater and a heating portion, the heating portion being formed as to cover surrounding of the heater, wherein the heating portion has an inner heat exchange surface formed on an inner surface of a through hole penetrating through an inner side of the heater and an outer heat exchange surface formed on an outer-wall portion of an outer side of the heater, the inner heat exchange surface being configured to perform heat exchange with the fluid, and the outer heat exchange surface being configured to perform the heat exchange with the fluid.

A temperature switch performs switching according to temperature of a heater. The temperature switch includes a bimetal that is deformed when the temperature of the heater reaches set temperature, a switch mechanism that is opened and closed by deformation of the bimetal, and a housing member that houses the bimetal and the switch mechanism, and that is able to conduct heat to the bimetal. The heater includes a pair of heat generation units that is adjacent to each other. The housing member includes a contact portion that is formed to project and that is inserted between the pair of heat generation units.
