Water heater

An improved water heater for use in spas, hot tubs, pools, hydrotherapy pools, bath tubs, and similar bodies of water used indoors, outdoors, or both indoors and outdoors are used for both therapeutic and recreational purposes. The water heater uses heating element technology know as thick film on substrate comprising resistive elements bonded to the outer dry surface of a pipe to heat the pipe which in turn heats the water flowing therethrough. The heater is highly efficient due to the direct contact of the wet heating surface with the water and provides a smooth seamless inner heating surface by eliminating the need to pass electrical leads into the wet region of the heater. This virtually eliminates the risk of leaks in the water heater due to bulkhead fittings. The invention further eliminates the need for a heating element to be contained in the inner wet region of a spa heater, thereby reducing the risk of corrosion. The water heater is used in combination with an electronic controller having a microprocessor to control and regulate the operation of the water heater. The water heater can be used with electrical, electro-mechanical, and mechanical control systems for spas and can be retrofitted into existing spa applications.

Pressure-detection method and a detection device for an electric pressure cooker

A pressure-detection method and detection device for electric pressure cooker is used for detecting continuously and accurately to control the pressure in the electric pressure cooker. The method comprises that a strainometer is provided on the periphery of a cooking pot of the electric pressure cooker, and a transmission arm is utilized to sense the expanding amount of the cooking pot and converts the expanding amount into a displacement, then makes the elastomer of the strainometer distorting; the distorting elastomer generates subsequently a controllable electric signal due to the electric characteristic of a sensitive foil, and the controllable electric signal is delivered to a central control unit, then control signals and display signals are outputted by the central control unit. The detection device comprises a strainometer, a transmission arm, a central control unit and the like. The strainometer is provided on the periphery of the cooking pot of the electric pressure cooker and is fixed by a proper way. The present invention can be used not only to detect and control the pressure of the electric pressure cooker and can be used for the household appliances also, such as electric iron, electric water heater and the like, the temperature and pressure of which need to be detected.
