  • Publication number: 20040035842
    Abstract: An electrically heating cable of the invention comprises a central core formed from the assembly of a plurality of graphite fibers. The central core is covered with a nylon layer. Around the nylon layer is wound a temperature sensing wire made of nickel in a helicoid manner. Ultimately, the electrically heating cable is encapsulated within an insulating layer made of polyvinyl chloride. Thereby, the electrically heating cable is provided with a sufficient toughness and flexibility to prevent cracks and ensure a safe use.

  • Publication number: 20040035854
    Abstract: An electric heating wire and applications thereof with the electric wire consists of a core made from a plurality strands of graphite fibers. The core is wound by an oblate insulation layer which has two wing flaps on the left and right sides for stitching and anchoring use. The core of the electric wire that consists of graphite fiber can generate heat when energized. The electric wire thus made may be anchored on blankets quickly to form an electric blanket, and can prevent rupture resulting from fatigue caused by temperature variations. The electric wire and the electric blanket thus formed have improved safety when in use and have a greater durability.
