摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The device (10) has an electrical heating element (16) i.e. electrical resistance heater, forming heat under reception of electrical energy. A heat pipe (12) forms a medium to be heated by the electrical heating element for heat transmission and includes sides (13, 14) to be heated. The heat pipe is arranged for the heat transmission between the sides by a vaporized and condensed heat transferring medium, where one of the sides of the pipe is arranged at an outer side of a passenger cabin (4) and the other side is arranged within the passenger cabin. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method for arranging a heating device in a vehicle. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Heating device for use in a vehicle (claimed) i.e. road vehicle, for heating a fuel-powered vehicle interior part. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The device allows efficient electrical heating of a fuel-powered vehicle interior part in a simple manner with relatively low electrical power supply voltage, and provides large degree of safety to vehicle passengers. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of a part of a vehicle with a vehicle-heating device. 4 : Passenger cabin 10 : Heating device 12 : Heat pipe 13, 14 : Sides of heat pipe 16 : Electrical heating element.
