Abstract

A heating device for electric mosquito killing apparatus is constructed by fixing a heating assembly comprising upper and lowed insulating members and a heating element arranged to be fed with electric current on the under face of a heat receiving plate having a plane for loading a mosquito killing mat thereon for evaporation by electric heating, each central part of the constituent members being provided with a hole for insertion of a sucking wick of a size allowing formation of a gap for evaporation of liquid mosquitocide around the wick.

Claims

1. A heating device for electric mosquito killing apparatus comprising:

a heat receiving plate 1 with a plane 11 for loading thereon a mosquito killing mat (M) impregnated with mosquitocide to be evaporated by electric heating, and

a heating assembly fixed on the under face of said heat receiving plate (1) and consisted of upper and lower insulating members (2,

     6) and a heating element (4) arranged to be fed with electric current and sandwiched between said upper and lower insulating members(2,

     6),

each of the heat receiving plate (1) and the heating assembly being provided at central portion thereof with a wick insertion hole (7) of a size allowing formation of a gap between its inner face and the sucking wick(d).

2. A heating device for electric mosquito killing apparatus comprising:

a heat receiving plate (1) having a plane (11) for loading thereon a mosquito killing mat M impregnated with mosquitocide to be evaporated by electric heating and having a cylindrical element (17) formed at central portion pending therefrom, said cylindrical element having a wick insertion hole (7),

an insulating plate (2) having at central portion a first hole (21) for insertion of the cylindrical body (17),

an insulating box (6) provided with a cavity (63) and fixed through the insulating plate (2) to the under face of the heat receiving plate (1),

an heating element (4) housed in the cavity (63) and arranged to be fed with electric current, each of the insulating plate (2), the heating element (4) and the insulating box (6) being provided at central portion thereof with a hole (21, 41,

     62) for insertion of the cylindrical element (17), said holes having a size allowing formation of a gap between their inner face and the sucking wick (d).

3. The heating device for electric mosquito killing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein,

the insulating box (6) is made as a plate-shaped insulator,

a heating element (4) arranged to be fed with electric current is placed between said insulating plate (2) and the insulator (6) and

the heating assembly consisted of the insulating plate 2, the insulator (6) and the heating element (4) is placed on the under face of the heat receiving plate 1 and fixed by caulking with a cylindrical fixture by using the hole (7) for insertion of a wick(d).
