Heating device with an electrical heat source for heating a fluid in a fluid line of a motor vehicle
Patent number: 6881933Abstract: A heating device includes an electrical heat source for heating a fluid in a fluid line of a motor vehicle, and a heat conducting device which is in connection with the heat source. The heat conducting device is connected with a hose clamp for connecting the heat conducting device to the fluid line. The heat conducting device may include a metal strip, the one end of which is in contact with the heat source and the other end is connected to the clamp. This metal strip facilitates the heat transfer from the heat source through the clamp to the fluid line.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2004Date of Patent: April 19, 2005Assignee: Rasmussen GmbHInventors: Uwe Wickel, Frank Bahner, Andreas Bauer, Marc Rastetter, Oliver Strauss, Jürgen Böhm -
