The specific embodiment
Describe controlled temperature equipment 10 with reference to the accompanying drawings in detail according to the embodiment of the invention.Though the application that controlled temperature equipment 10 is installed on the seat only is shown among the figure, and obviously this controlled temperature equipment 10 can be applied to various sitting and sleeping funnitures similarly, for example the seat of the various vehicles, office seating, chaise longue, bed or the like.
As shown in Figure 1, controlled temperature equipment 10 is installed in the back part of seat 20.This installation site is not limited, so long as the part that contacts with human body is just passable, for example can be seat and human buttock's position contacting yet.
As illustrated in fig. 1 and 2, controlled temperature equipment 10 mainly comprises three parts: be exclusively used in the thermal source part of this equipment 10, promptly both can have heated the heating/refrigerating plant 11 that also can freeze; The heat transfer part comprises first heat transmitter 12 of heat source side and second heat transmitter 13 of target side, is used for the cold and hot variation that heating/refrigerating plant 11 is realized is sent to by solid dielectric the surface of seat 20; Control section, promptly be connected to the electronics adjustable temperature control device 15 of heating/refrigerating plant 11, be used for poor between the temperature that sets according to the user and the environment temperature, control heating/refrigerating plant 11 heats or freezes, so that the temperature on seat 20 surfaces reaches the temperature that sets.Utilization can realize for example 16 ℃-32 ℃ temperature controlling range according to controlled temperature equipment 10 of the present invention.
In controlled temperature equipment 10, owing to used special-purpose independent heating/refrigerating plant 11 and the heat transfer part of conducting by solid dielectric, so compare with existing employing air-conditioner or water tank and by the controlled temperature equipment of air or heat transfer water, the user can regulate the temperature of this seat 20 independently, make the fluctuation range of temperature not be subjected to the influence of environment temperature, thereby the user can more cosily take.
Can use the semiconductor thermoelectric refrigeration device that constitutes by thermocouple as heating/refrigerating plant 11.The mechanism of this thermoelectric cooling device heating and refrigeration mainly is based on Peltier effect, simply introduces its principle below with reference to Fig. 3.Practical thermoelectric cooling device is made of the relatively more significant semiconductor thermocouple of pyroelectric effect.Semiconductor thermocouple is made up of N-type semiconductor and P-type semiconductor.N-type semiconductor has excess electron, has subzero temperature difference electromotive force; The P-type semiconductor electron deficiency has positive thermoelectric force.After N-type semiconductor and P-type semiconductor being connected into thermocouple and connect dc source with copper brace 32 for example, the transfer that will produce the temperature difference and heat in the joint.A joint sense of current is N to P, and temperature descends and heat absorption, and this is a cold junction 31; And another joint sense of current is P to N, and temperature rises and heat release, and this is hot junction 33.Several semiconductor thermoelectric couples are together in series have just constituted a thermoelectric cooling device.When changing the sense of current, the hot junction 33 and the cold junction 31 of this device can exchange.
This heating/refrigerating plant 11 volumes are less, easy to use, thereby make whole controlled temperature equipment 10 compact conformations, can be widely used in various sitting and sleeping funnitures, and can reequip easily existing utensil and install this controlled temperature equipment 10 additional.And this heating/refrigerating plant 11 uses the dc source of 12V, and such low pressure makes that the use of controlled temperature equipment 10 is safer.
As mentioned above, the heat transfer part comprises first heat transmitter 12 that is positioned at heating/refrigerating plant 11 sides and is positioned at second heat transmitter 13 that the seat surface side contacts with human body.At this, second heat transmitter 13 can directly contact with human body, also can be by seat outer cover etc. and human body mediate contact.First heat transmitter 12 and second heat transmitter 13 preferably by the material with thermal conductive resin for example metal make.Certainly, the material of first heat transmitter 12 and second heat transmitter 13 can be different, for example second heat transmitter 13 can by thermal conductivity not as first heat transmitter 12 but the material that is more suitable for contacting with human body make.
Preferably, the shape and size of first heat transmitter 12 match with heating/refrigerating plant 11, seat 20 and second heat transmitter 13, with will heat as far as possible effectively/heat that refrigerating plant 11 is produced is delivered to second heat transmitter 13.The thickness of the height of first heat transmitter 12 and seat 20 is basic identical, installs can pass seat 20.Like this, be installed under the seat 20 lip-deep situations, other parts of controlled temperature equipment 10 mainly can be installed in the back side of seat 20, thereby do not influence the outward appearance of seat 20 at second heat transmitter 13.Because the area of heating/refrigerating plant 11 is generally less than the area of second heat transmitter 13, the end that first heat transmitter 12 contacts with heating/refrigerating plant 11 is general also less than the other end that contacts with second heat transmitter 13, so the cross section of first heat transmitter 12 is I-shaped.
In addition, controlled temperature equipment 10 can also comprise fan 17 and/or radiator 16.When heating/refrigerating plant 11 freezed, fan 17 and radiator 16 work were with the hot-side heat dissipation to heating/refrigerating plant 11.When heating/refrigerating plant 11 heated, fan 17 and radiator 16 can be worked, and also can not work.Preferably, fan 17 and/or radiator 16 are all worked when 11 heating of heating/refrigerating plant or refrigeration, so that the temperature difference in this equipment is unlikely to excessive.Fan 17 can by fan spacer 18 be fixed on radiator 16 near.Comprising under both situations of fan 17 and radiator 16, fan 17 and radiator 16 are arranged side by side on the back side of seat 20.Like this, compare, can make the thinner thickness of whole controlled temperature equipment 10, thereby reduce adverse effect seat 20 outward appearances with the layout that fan 17 and radiator 16 is stacked.In the case, fan 17 can be a turbine fan.
Electronics adjustable temperature control device 15 is in mode well known in the art, and control heating/refrigerating plant 11 heats or freezes, with the temperature rising on seat 20 surfaces or be reduced to the temperature that the user sets.Particularly, this temperature control equipment 15 comprises and is installed in second heat transmitter, 13 lip-deep thermistor (not shown).At first, set the desired target temperature of user by control panel reception user's input.Then, thermistor is exported different control signals according to the actual temperature (i.e. the temperature on second heat transmitter, 13 surfaces) of seat surface and the relation between the target temperature.According to these control signals, temperature control equipment 15 is realized following control via the connecting line 19 that is installed on heating/refrigerating plant 11: when actual temperature is lower than target temperature, heating/refrigerating plant 11 is heated; When actual temperature is higher than target temperature, heating/refrigerating plant 11 is freezed; And wait when actual temperature equals target temperature, heating/refrigerating plant 11 is quit work.At this, owing to adopted independently the semiconductor thermoelectric refrigeration device as heating/refrigerating plant 11, so can easily realize above-mentioned control with various electronic circuits.
Although the present invention will be described by preferred embodiment above, but those skilled in the art should very clear above explanation only be indicative, and can make various changes and modification according to disclosed content, and do not break away from appended claims institute restricted portion.
