Abstract

A carbon wire heating element sealing heater is provided. Therein, a carbon wire heating element using carbon fibers is sealed in a quartz glass member, wherein absorption water quantity of the carbon wire heating element is 2×10 −3 g/cm 3 or less.

Claims (20)

1. A carbon wire heating element sealing heater in which a carbon wire heating element using carbon fibers is sealed in a quartz glass member, wherein

the quantity of water absorbed in the carbon wire heating element is 2×10 −3 g or less per 1 cm 3 of said carbon wire heating element.

2. The carbon wire heating element sealing heater according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a glass pipe disposed at an end portion of the quartz glass member and for accommodating the end portion of the carbon wire heating element;

a wire carbon member for nipping an end portion of the carbon wire heating element; and

a terminal portion whose end is accommodated in the glass pipe and which contains a connecting wire for power supply nipped by compressed wire carbon members, wherein

the wire carbon member is constituted of plural wire carbon bundles composed of wire carbon materials, and

the carbon wire heating element is disposed substantially in the center of the glass pipe among the plural wire carbon bundles.

3. The carbon wire heating element sealing heater according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a first glass pipe disposed at an end portion of the quartz glass member and for accommodating a part of the carbon wire heating element;

a second glass pipe having the same axis as that of the first glass pipe and for accommodating an end portion of a power supply connecting wire for supplying electric power to the carbon wire heating element and an end portion of the carbon wire heating element; and

a terminal portion accommodated in the first and second glass pipes in a compressed state and having a wire carbon member for nipping the carbon wire heating element and power supply connecting wire, wherein

the wire carbon member is constituted of plural wire carbon bundles composed of wire carbon materials and

the carbon wire heating element is disposed substantially in the center of the glass pipe among the plural wire carbon bundles.

4. A carbon wire heating element sealing heater in which a carbon wire heating element using carbon fibers is sealed in a quartz glass member according to claim 1 , comprising:

a first glass pipe disposed at an end portion of the quartz glass member and for accommodating a part of the carbon wire heating element;

a second glass pipe having the same axis as that of the first glass pipe and for accommodating an end portion of a power supply connecting wire for supplying electric power to the carbon wire heating element and an end portion of the carbon wire heating element; and

a terminal portion accommodated in the first and second glass pipes in a compressed state and having a wire carbon member for nipping the carbon wire heating element and power supply connecting wire, wherein

the wire carbon member is constituted of plural wire carbon bundles composed of wire carbon materials and

the carbon wire heating element is disposed substantially in the center of the glass pipe among the plural wire carbon bundles.
