Technical field
The present invention relates generally to cold sotrage door, heat-protecting glass unit and refrigerating system, and more particularly, relates to antifog or frost prevention does not have the energy consumption cold sotrage door, and it provides the transmission of visible light of condensation control, thermal insulation and desired amount.More particularly, cold sotrage door of the present invention is realized the feature of these expectations in the following manner, promptly is coated with low-emissivity coating and not electrical heating door and by coating antifog/anti-fog coatings or film.In this application, term " cold sotrage door " is meant the door that is used for refrigerator, refrigerator and similar units and cupboard.In addition, for the application, term " no energy consumption " (as no energy consumption cold sotrage door) is meant that electricity need not to be applied to glass, with heating glass." antifog " and " frost prevention " refers to such coating or film, and it reduces or eliminates clearance time (clearing time) for cold sotrage door, heat-protecting glass unit (IGU) or other article described herein.
Background technology
Their full text of all United States Patent (USP)s mentioned herein and U.S. Patent Application Publication document is in conjunction with being hereby incorporated by reference.In the situation of conflict, comprise that this manual of definition will be the master.
The cold sotrage door that is used for commercial refrigerator, refrigerator etc. is made of glass usually, sees the product that is placed in wherein to allow client, sells thereby need not to open door.Yet when in formation condensation on glass (referring to " hazing " sometimes), client can't see that with identification product wherein, this angle from client and storekeeper or retailer does not wish to take place by door.The formation of frost has similar problem.
Aqueous vapor condensation on the outside of glass cold sotrage door, this is because owing to refrigerator causes the surface temperature in the outside of glass to be reduced under the environment temperature in shop to the refrigeration of refrigerator or refrigerator inside.When the temperature on the surface of glass drops under the dew point of the air in the shop, aqueous vapor condensation on the surface of glass.In addition, when door was opened in a humid environment, the inner glass sheet material that forms the inboard of door also was exposed to the surrounding air in shop at once, and also can form condensation on the inboard of door.Also occur condensation on the inboard of glass door, this is because the temperature of the inboard of glass door is lower than the dew point of its environment shop air that is exposed to.
As previously mentioned, can stop client to see product clearly for the condensate on glass of frost, to sell by glass door.Therefore, when condensate or frost occurring on glass door, client must finish and open this loaded down with trivial details operation of cold sotrage door with identification article wherein, and this is unpractical for the shop with a large amount of refrigerators or refrigerator.Opening every refrigeration door is loaded down with trivial details and time-consuming for client not only, and the retailer is not wished so yet, because the remarkable like this energy consumption that has increased retailer's refrigerator and refrigerator, thereby caused retailer's higher cost aspect energy.
Have various industry performance standard, wherein cold sotrage door must meet their requirement, so that approval.In the U.S., most industry requirement cold sotrage doors (non-refrigerator doors) (when using in the environment of internal temperature 40F), prevent external condensation at the external temperature with Fahrenheit 80 degree (80F), 60% outside relative humidity and negative 40 degree of Fahrenheit.There is different requirements in other country.
As well known in the art, traditional cold sotrage door comprises the heat-protecting glass unit (IGU) that is contained in the doorframe.IGU in the cold sotrage door comprises two or three glass sheets substantially, at their periphery by the black box sealing that is called as banding substantially.In the IGU that comprises three glass sheets, between described three glass sheets, form two heat-insulating rooms.In the IGU that comprises two glass sheets, form single heat-insulating room.Substantially, the IGU that is used for refrigerator is made of two glass sheets, and is used for three glass sheets of IGU employing of refrigerator.After sealed, described each chamber is full of usually such as the inert gas of argon gas, krypton gas or other gas that is fit to, to improve the thermal property of IGU.
Most of traditional prevent from or reduce in the cold sotrage door method of condensation to relate to by on one or more glass surfaces of IGU, conductive coating being set and provide energy, with electrically heated glass to described door.The temperature that the purpose of heating glass is to keep glass is higher than the dew point of the warmer surrounding air in shop.Make it be higher than dew point by heating glass, prevent condensation and frost that the generation on glass in door is not expected, thereby can clearly see through the inside that glass is observed refrigerated compartment.
In the door that is made of three-layer type IGU, the unexposed surface-coated of one or two glass sheet has conductive material.Described conductive coating is connected to power supply by two buss or other the electric connector on the opposite edge that is installed in glass.Along with electric current passes through coating, coating heating, thereby heating glass sheet material are to provide the surface of frozen-free.Coating on the IGU of cold sotrage door is coated to the unexposed surface of outermost glass sheet material usually.Yet, because sometimes on the inboard of glass inner side sheet material, form condensation, so the unexposed surface of inner glass sheet material is also coated, so that heating, thereby prevent condensation.
The traditional heated type cold sotrage door of these of prior art has a plurality of shortcomings and problem.At first, heated door causes cost of energy to be higher than and exceeds the cost of energy of cooling system.In standard-sized commercial refrigerator, the additional cost of heating refrigerator door is sizable ,-based on present electricity rates, this additional cost can be that each refrigerator is annual or more.Consider that many shops use a plurality of refrigerators, and some supermarket and other food retailer are used up to a hundred refrigerators, the cost of energy of the accumulation relevant with this heated type refrigerator door is appreciable.
The second, will be transferred to refrigerated compartment from the too much heat of traditional heated type cold sotrage door, on cooling system, caused additional burden, this causes higher cost of energy.The 3rd, if it is too low to be supplied to an electric energy that is used to heat, then power supply output is closed or is interrupted, and will form condensate and/or frost on glass.If power consumption is too high, then will cause unnecessary additional cost of energy.These problems occur in order to reduce, this heated type glass door needs the accurate control of a heating system usually.Accurate control for necessity of realizing a heating system needs electric control system, and this has caused the increase of design and manufacturing cost, and operation and maintenance cost significantly.
The 4th, these electrical heating type glass doors can work the mischief to client's safety, and can bring the potential danger of debt and exposure for retailer and cold storage plant manufacturer.The voltage that puts on the glass door coating is roughly 115 volts of AC.Client's employed shopping cart in the shop is heavy and be metal.If the shopping cart bump also destroys glass door, then electric current may conduct to client by shopping cart, and this will cause client to be subjected to serious injury even death.
U.S. Patent No. 5852284 and No.6148563 disclose voltage have been applied to the glass that is coated with conductive coating (it can be a low-emissivity coating), are condensate in the formation on the outer surface of glass door with control.Conductive coating such as low-emissivity coating provides resistance, and it produces heat; The thermal characteristic of expectation also is provided simultaneously.Yet disclosed cold sotrage door has aforesaid drawbacks and the problem relevant with all electrical heating type cold sotrage doors in these patents.Glass unit, door, refrigerating unit etc. are also disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6367223, No.6606832 and No.6606833.As what point out, these and other United States Patent (USP) and patent application are in full in conjunction with incorporated by reference in this application.
Except being used for conduction, this low-emissivity coating has been employed as another measure that is used to reduce condensation on the cold sotrage door.Especially, the insulation value (" R value ") of increase glass and minimizing are that low radiation (low E) coating is applied to glass from a kind of method of the thermal loss of refrigerated compartment.Low E coating be deposited on micro-level on the glass surface thin, sightless in fact metal or metal oxide layer, with by suppressing to reduce emissivity by the radiant heat flux of glass.Emissivity is the ratio by black matrix or surface amount of radiation of sending and the theoretical amount of radiation of being predicted by Planck law.Term " emissivity " is meant the emissivity values that records according to U.S.'s test and materialogy meeting (ASTM) standard in infra-red range.Emissivity utilizes the radiometry device measured, and is reported as hemispherical radiation rate (hemispherical emissivity) and standard emissivity (normal emissivity).Emissivity shows the percentage by the long infrared wavelength radiation of coating emission.Lower emissivity shows that less heat will be via the glass transmission.Therefore, the emissivity of glass sheet or IGU influences the thermal conductivity (" U value ") of insulation value and glass or the IGU of glass or IGU.The U value of glass sheet or IGU and its R value are inversely proportional to.
In multiple field IGU, the emissivity of IGU, the combined radiation rate that promptly forms each glass sheet of described IGU can multiply each other by the emissivity with all glass sheets together and be estimated.For example, in two-layer IGU, wherein each glass sheet has 0.5 emissivity, and total emissivity will be 0.5 to multiply by 0.5 or be 0.25.
Although being coated to, low E coating needs and do not need IGU used in the cold sotrage door of electrical heating door, but this coating and IGU are not suitable for controlling condensation and provide required thermal insulation in wide temperature range and following environment, in described environment, utilized this cold sotrage door, and need not to apply electricity with heated door.More particularly, although used this low E coating, not heated cold sotrage door can't be provided at the condensation control in such application, and in described application, the internal temperature of refrigerated compartment roughly is near or below freezing point.
And traditional antifog/anti-fog coatings, film etc. and the method that is coated with them also have limitation.For example, film can still allow to form water droplet, and it looks like mist and dim scene.Equally, of short duration water retting with or repeatedly the cleaning after, often lose antifog characteristic.And, the known antifog article that works by absorption condensation saturable and losing efficacy under very moist state, this to small part be because the swelling state of their height.Equally, these goods can easily abrade or make dirty, and are not enough to stand or resist common solvent.In addition, traditional antifog article can have common coating problem, for example drip, trickle, catch dust and chemical crackle.
Thereby although can adopt the cold sotrage door of electrical heating type and low-emissivity coating and can adopt antifog and frost prevention goods for example film and coating, cold sotrage door still needs: (1) provides necessary condensation control and thermal insulation in wide temperature and environmental field; (2) has the transmission of visible light of desired amount; (3) avoid the too much burden of unnecessary cost of energy and cooling system with the demand of heated door by reducing the supply electric energy; (4) need not costliness and complicated electric control system, thus miniaturized design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance cost; And (5) can not bring safety hazard and manufacturer and retailer brought and be in debt and the potential danger of exposure client, and otherwise overcome or reduce above-mentioned problem.
