Definitions
- Device intended to dehumidify a room or a living space.
- the subject of the present invention is a device intended for dehumidifying a room or a habitable volume by evacuation towards the outside of a wall, of the humidity contained at the back of the latter within the room or the corresponding habitable volume.
- the invention provides an evaporator condenser siphon intended to communicate a rod of conductive metal with the cold outside air on the one hand and on the other hand with the hot and humid air of a house so as to create a limited thermal bridge, when it is positioned after installation near a cold wall, for example glazing or wall, in order to condense the humidity of a room in contact with it.
- the said condenser is
- the air thus doubly weighed down, flows by gravity to the outside and to the base, and, 'nature abhorred by vacuum', replaces it, towards the top of the grid, with a new light, dry air.
- siphon-condenser-evaporator a porous plate, placed in a cavity in contact with the outside air, produces the same double effect of siphoning and evaporation producing cold which relatively accelerates the process, on the other hand , this cold, driving force of condensation, is, moreover, it leads inside the house.
- Patent FR No. 2 252475 describes a wick introduced into the water evacuation hole at the base of a frame designed to conduct water, collected at the bottom of the drip tray and resulting from infiltration or condensation on the glazing, towards the outside by draining it; but such a system eliminates the vent passage, however essential for balancing the pressures between interior and exterior.
- Figure 1 shows a siphon-condenser-evaporator assembly in section.
- Figure 2 is a front view of the siphoning cavity provided with the evaporator.
- Fig 3 is the closing grid of the siphon.
- Fig 4 is a variant in which the condenser rod is full and provided at the lower end with an evaporator pierced at the periphery.
- the F'9 5 is a section representing the sealed conduit with the condenser in its bed with a wick inserted in its center and the end piece of which protrudes from the bottom siphon to constitute an evaporator.
- Fig 6 is also a section of the sealed conduit but comprising a full condenser with a wick in the bottom of the bed whose end protrudes from the bottom siphon to form an evaporator.
- Fig 7 corresponds to an end view of Figure 6 showing the wick at the bottom of the bed.
- Fig 8 corresponds to an end view of Figure 5 showing the wick inserted in the axis of the hollow condenser.
- Fig 9 is a longitudinal section of the siphon as a variant of Figure 4 with an evaporator fixed to the end of the condenser not provided with a hole.
- Figure 10 is a section of the sealed conduit and the top and bottom siphons of the assembly.
- the device forming a siphon-condenser-evaporator according to FIG. 1 is remarkable in that a hollow thermally conductive metal rod (1) Figl is placed in a slope directed towards the outside after having passed through a frame (2) or of a thin wall, the rising part being directed inwards, said rod or condenser (1) consisting of a tube whose outside diameter corresponds substantially to the inside diameter of the conduit (3) has a central recess defining the vent, and is housed in the sealed conduit (3) connected to two concave parts (4) and (4A) or siphons, symmetrically inverted, inside which said rod (1) comes into contact with the outside air at the bottom (4A), on the one hand, and with the inside air at the top (4) on the other hand, the base of the condenser towards the outside being provided for example perpendicularly with a plate (5), fixed on the lower part of the conductive rod, of small thickness of porous material intended to form an evaporator, pierced with a corresponding hole (6) the inside diameter
- the water reaches the base by gravity, soaks in the plate of porous material (5) fixed to the tip of the condenser (1), the whole being found in a cavity, or lower siphon (4A) i concave curved downwards; generating a downward passage of air (AA) drying the plate, increasing the weight of the water molecules torn from the right plate (5) in its passage and flowing down before exiting (BB) creating a relative vacuum, or depression, and the concomitant introduction by siphoning of a new volume of air (AA) and so on, all functioning as soon as the dew point is obtained, that is to say; moment when the humidity saturation of the indoor ambient air coincides so as to be exchanged on a sufficiently cold point near a passage promoting convection as can be, for example, a window.
- the thermal conductive rod, or condenser (. ') Can be solid and with an outside diameter less than the inside diameter of the duct (3), the passage of the vent air as well as the condensation water are channeled in this case by the sealed conduit (3) and takes place at the periphery by a passage at least equivalent in volume to the hollow (7) of FIG.
- the siphon cavities at the top inwards (4) and at the bottom outwards (4A), which may be made of molded plastic, are symmetrically inverted and connected together through a frame previously pierced by means known in either and at the angle of incidence which is defined in itself according to the inclination of the system, for example between 30 ° and 45 ° by a junction conduit (3) adjustable in length, with the foot raised; whose function is to isolate the condenser (1), and the humidity that it has collected, from the partition that it must cross.
- Each siphon (4) and (4A) is formed by a concave part as illustrated in FIG.
- the said siphon is provided behind the said flange (F) with relatively flat upper and lower parts parallel to the plane of the flange, intended for the reception of the fixing screws, for example by screwing, to the frame or to the provided partition.
- These parts being connected to the collar by walls (G) and (G '), between which is disposed a sleeve (H) which internally or externally receives by bonding the sealed junction conduit (3) made of plastic.
- a grid (8) also made of molded material adapts by stapling in a known manner either on the opening of the cavity forming the top siphon (4), while the same grid (8A) is placed in the other direction over the opening of the cavity forming the bottom siphon (4A) symmetrically opposite to the first.
- the thermal conductive rod, or condenser (1) or (V) can be installed alone in the sealed conduit (3), without having been carried out the fixing of the evaporator (5) at its base towards the outside, in this case the dew point is slightly delayed at the tip of the condenser inwards at the top, and the production of condensed water is relatively lower:
- This drawback can be corrected by installing a larger number of condenser-evaporator siphons for a room to be dehumidified.
- the passage for vent (7) whether it is located in the center of the condenser (1) according to, for example FIG 5, or else that it takes place at the periphery of said condenser left free by relative to the sealed conduit (3), according to Figure 6; in these two cases it is possible to introduce a wick (M), arranged at the level of the vent-forming passage, for example between rod (1) and conduit (3) or inside the recess of the rod (1) forming a tube, the said wick has the function of sponging the droplets formed, by dew point, on the upper part of the condenser towards the inhabited room, or not, then conducting the water towards the base, either a part on the evaporator (5), even directly when the evaporator described above has not been placed in the cavity (4A) of low siphoning; the end of said wick (M) is then provided with a nozzle (P) projecting downward from the rod (1) and forming an evaporator (P) Fig 6, in the case where it is installed at
- the condenser (.) According to another variant illustrated in FIG. 9, very freely enters the sealed junction conduit (3), where it rests by pressing on the wick (M) in its mediating bed so that the outside air (S) passes over its upper and lateral periphery left free then forming a vent, the porous plate or evaporator (5 ") not provided " with a central orifice and which can be fixed to the nozzle of the condenser (1) for example by gluing, this one must spare, between its upper part and the wall (G) of the upper bottom of the siphon (4A) a space of passage for air circulation (S). Maintaining the condenser can be ensured peripherally by abutment on the grid (8) lower.
- Such a system of the invention of the siphon-condenser-evaporator having for goal, not only to sanitize a humid room, but moreover, by drying it, to realize savings because the impression of cold is stronger at temperature equal depending on whether you live in a humid place compared to a drier place.
- Such a device is applicable to buildings, doorframes, doors, windows, verandas and mobile homes of the caravan type.
- This device also interests the activity of glazing concomitantly by being installed in its more or less immediate proximity.
