Abstract
The heat medium heating device includes: a casing in which the flat heat exchange tubesand the PTC heaterare stacked in multiple layers and incorporated; and a control substrate of the PTC heaterincorporated in the casing. In the heat medium heating device in which a terminalA extending from each electrode plateof the PTC heateris directly connected to a connection portion of the control substrate, the width dimension of the flat heat exchange tubesis greater than a contact surface width in a direction in which the terminalA extends from each electrode platein the PTC elementof the PTC heater, and the electrode platesand the flat heat exchange tubesexcluding the PTC elementare superimposed in the wide portion.
