LINE CONNECTOR AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A MOULDING ELEMENT FREE LINE CONNECTOR WITH AT LEAST ONE HEATING STRAND OR HEATING WIRE

摘要

The invention relates to a line connector (1) comprising at least one first connection section (10) for connecting to at least one fluid line (5), at least one second connection section (11) for connecting to at least one second fluid line and/or to a unit and at least one central section (12) which is arranged between said lines and which interconnects the connection sections (10,11). Said line connector (1) is designed as a plastic moulding element and comprises at least one wall (14) and at least one inner flow channel (13) is surrounded by thereby. The line connector (1) is provided in at least one partial area of the central section (12) with at least one heating strand (2) or heating wire for electrically heating by winding. The heating strand (2) or the heating wire comprises at least one strand (21) or at least one wire and an insulation covering (20) surrounding one or both. The at least one heating strand (2) or the at least one heating wire is adhesively fixed or secured at least in the central section (12) of the line connector (1) thereto by securing means and after adhesively fixing or securing of the heating strand (2) or the heating wire to the line connector (1), the wall thickness (s,s26) of the at least one single-sheet insulation covering on all sides about the at least one strand (21) or the at least one wire is sufficient for electric insulation,
