Patent number: 11852064Abstract: An exhaust gas heater for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine includes a carrier arrangement and a heating conductor arrangement. The heating conductor arrangement is carried on the carrier arrangement and exhaust gas can flow therethrough in a main exhaust gas flow direction. The heating conductor arrangement includes at least two heating conductors arranged following one another in the main exhaust gas flow direction. The carrier arrangement includes at least one carrier element having a fixing region lying radially on the outside relative to an exhaust gas heater center axis and is configured for fixing to an exhaust gas guidance housing. The fixing region at least partially does not radially overlap a radially outer lying conductor region of at least one heating conductor of the heating conductor arrangement in at least one, preferably several circumferential regions.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2022Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Purem GmbHInventors: Fatih Uysal, Sandra Hoeckel, Dietmar Kuschel

Patent number: 11492942Abstract: An exhaust gas heater for an exhaust gas system of a combustion engine includes a carrier and a heating conductor supported on the carrier. The heating conductor includes a heating region arranged on an axial side of the carrier, wherein the heating conductor is electrically uninsulated in its heating region at least in part. A holding arrangement has at least one holding unit which holds the heating conductor on the carrier in its heating region. The holding unit includes at least one electrically conducting holding block which is in contact with the heating conductor in an electrically uninsulated region of the heating region. The holding block is electrically insulated with respect to the carrier.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2021Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Purem GmbHInventors: Enver Kurpejovic, Fatih Uysal, Holger Prommersberger, Dietmar Kuschel, Sandra Hoeckel

Patent number: 11486286Abstract: A connection unit for an exhaust gas heater in an exhaust gas system of a combustion engine includes an electrically conducting connection element, elongated in the direction of a connection element longitudinal axis (L). The connection element has an inner connection region for connection to a heating conductor and an outer connection region for connection to an electrical supply. A carrier arrangement surrounds the connection element and an insulating arrangement insulates the connection element with respect to the carrier arrangement.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2021Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Purem GmbHInventors: Enver Kurpejovic, Fatih Uysal, Holger Prommersberger, Dietmar Kuschel, Sandra Hoeckel
