摘要： A semi-finished product of an electric heater device has a casing body (2) defining a housing for at least one electric heater. The casing body (2) has a first or predefined configuration, in particular a substantially planar, or plate-like, or two-dimensional configuration, and is prearranged for being folded in substantially predetermined areas (1a), which define in the casing body (2) a plurality of regions (4, 5, 6) that are at least in part relatively stiff and are suitable to be folded with respect to one another in one said folding area (1a). In this way, a second or different configuration, in particular a substantially three-dimensional configuration, can be bestowed upon the casing body (2).
