12324062
The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of wax melting and processing, and particularly relates to a wax melting device.
A thermostatic wax melter is an apparatus for melting a wax, which can maintain a constant temperature such that the wax remains in a stable state during the process of melting. Such an apparatus is usually used for making candles, wax seals, wax statues and other handicrafts, and may also be used in medical, laboratory or industrial fields where wax melting is required.
The thermostatic wax melter can precisely control the temperature and maintain a constant melting temperature to ensure that the wax is processed in a suitable state so as to solve problems caused by overheating or supercooling. The wax melter can quickly melt a solid wax into a liquid state, thus improving the production efficiency and the speed of craft production. The wax melter is usually provided with a safety protection device, which can prevent a liquid wax from splashing out or causing fire and other safety problems due to an excess temperature. The wax melter can be used for different types of waxes, is suitable for making candles, wax seals, wax statues and other handicrafts, and can also be used for wax treatment in medical and laboratory fields. Generally speaking, the wax melter has the characteristics of accurate temperature control ability, a high melting speed, high safety and reliability, and the like, and can meet the processing needs of various waxes.
In view of the problems in the prior art, the present disclosure provides a wax melting device. In an aspect, a wax melting device is provided, comprising:
In another aspect, a wax melting device is also provided, comprising:
The structure of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. During long-term use of a wax melter in the prior art, a high temperature produced by a heating assembly may directly bake a circuit board and a housing of the wax melter, which easily leads to premature aging or desoldering of electronic components on the circuit board; and continuously heating the housing of the wax melter may also lead to an excess temperature, resulting in a risk of scalding a user. In addition, the heating assembly and a temperature sensing assembly in the current wax melter are mounted in such a way of being attached to a pot body inside the wax melter by using a tinfoil tape. However, it is difficult to unify positions of the heating assembly and the temperature sensing assembly mounted in this way, the temperatures monitored at different positions are different, and the tinfoil tape may easily cause the heating assembly and the temperature sensing assembly to be in poor contact with the pot body, which in turn leads to a great temperature difference during use of the product. Generally, the pot body is fixed in such a way that the heating assembly is supported and propped against a bottom of the pot body by means of a support frame. This mounting method is prone to not only deforming the pot body, which in turn leads to a poor heat conduction effect of the pot body, but also loosening the pot body and producing defective products during the process of production.
In order to solve at least one of the above technical problems, as shown in
