DE102010005515A1 - Evaporator for air moisturizer in heated room, has absorbent body for projecting into water and connected with front side of rear wall of evaporator, where evaporator is made of microfiber textile, plastic or metal - Google Patents

Abstract

The evaporator has a humidification tub (1) filled with water (6), and an absorbent body (4) for projecting into the water and firmly connected with a front side of a rear wall (3) of the evaporator. The absorbent body exhibits high capillarity, where the evaporator is made of microfiber textile, plastic or metal. The absorbent body is glued with adhesive containing silicone, where the evaporator is secured at a heating element with magnets. The humidification tub with side walls (2) is constructed such that water does not rest against the heating element.

Description

The invention relates to a Verdunster in the preambles of claims 1 and 5 mentioned type. More specifically, the invention relates to a humidifier for heated rooms.

State of the art

An evaporator according to the preambles of the independent claims, for example, from the DE 000001889940 U known.

Verdunster conventional design consist of a water tank which is attached in front of the radiator and an opening from the water evaporates. The water reservoir with the water is heated by the radiator and thus stimulates the evaporation.

The common disadvantage of all known evaporators is that a warming of the entire water supply is possible. This is questionable from a hygienic point of view.

In addition, the efficiency of known evaporators is low. The evaporation performance is often caused by a very small water surface. Therefore, the heated water is very long in the container, so that more germs can form.

By means of filter mats or other absorbent bodies, an enlargement of the water surface is often produced. The absorbent bodies are at a distance ( AT 152052 B ; CH 203086 A ; DE 1757309 U ) or loose ( FR 2710731 A1 ) hung in the reservoir and thus increase the evaporation surface.

In the CN 2591491 Y is a device described in which the water evaporates while it runs over a heating tube from above into a lower vessel.

The CN 1506632 A describes a device in which dropwise the water is placed on an evaporation mat on the radiator.

Further additional measures to increase the evaporation performance such as heating elements ( CH 337992 A ) or fans ( CH 684500 A ; DE 207585 B ) must be driven electrically. These are usually referred to as humidifiers.

task

It is an object of the invention to provide a vaporizer in which quickly evaporates much water without the water heats up in the humidification tank.

This object is achieved by the teaching of the independent claims.

Preferred embodiments are part of the subclaims.

By means of the absorbent body with its very high capillarity, an optimal distribution of moisture is achieved. Water from the humidifying tank is therefore always tracked again. The surface available for evaporation is very large.

By attaching to the radiator and the carrier material, the heat energy is optimally transferred to the absorbent body and implemented.

In the evaporation heat energy is consumed. Due to the effect of adiabatic cooling, the surface of the absorbent body remains constantly cool.

The attachment of the evaporator is made with as full as possible contact the back wall of the evaporator on the radiator.

If the water is used up in the evaporator, the absorbent body dries out, so that a precondition for the formation of nuclei no longer exists.

When the suction force of the absorbent decreases due to contamination or calcification, the absorbent body should be exchangeable.

embodiment

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

1 a perspective view of an evaporator according to the invention.

The humidification tub ( 1 ) with the side walls ( 2 ) is designed so that the water supply ( 6 ) does not abut the radiator.

The absorbent body ( 4 ) is connected to the rear wall ( 3 ), so that an efficient heat transfer takes place.

The evaporator is equipped with magnets for attachment ( 5 ) fitted. So is the back wall ( 3 ) directly on the radiator and the heat is optimal for the absorbent body ( 4 ) transfer.

By means of the existing air flow in the room and the achieved adiabatic evaporation, the moisture is kept constant by the absorbent body (FIG. 4 ) delivered away to the room air.
