Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif de ventilation apte à ventiler un local en fonction de l'humidité relative mesurée dans le local à l'aide d'un capteur hygrosensible.The present invention relates to a ventilation device adapted to ventilate a room according to the relative humidity measured in the room with a hygrosensitive sensor.

Les différentes pièces d'un local présentent des besoins de ventilation variables les unes par rapport aux autres au cours du temps. Ce besoin évolue principalement en fonction du type de pièces et de l'occupation. En ce qui concerne les pièces techniques, le besoin en ventilation est fonction essentiellement des émissions de vapeurs d'eau. En ce qui concerne les pièces principales, chambres et salle de séjour, c'est le nombre de personnes occupant ces pièces qui détermine le niveau de ventilation nécessaire.The different rooms of a room have varying ventilation needs with respect to each other over time. This need changes mainly according to the type of rooms and occupation. With regard to the technical parts, the ventilation requirement is essentially a function of the emissions of water vapor. With regard to the main rooms, bedrooms and living room, it is the number of people occupying these rooms that determines the level of ventilation required.

Actuellement, la technique la plus avancée en matière de gestion du besoin de ventilation permet d'asservir la surface de passage des entrées d'air à l'humidité relative des locaux ventilés, le niveau d'humidité relative étant lié au niveau d'humidité absolue et à la température par une loi physique parfaitement déterminée et connue de l'homme du métier. Un tel dispositif de ventilation comprend une entrée d'air à surface de passage modulable commandée par un capteur. Ce dernier est constitué par un tissu hygrosensible qui est logé dans le local à ventiler et qui subit des transformations physiques, élongation ou rétractation, en fonction de l'humidité relative régnant dans le local.At present, the most advanced ventilation requirement management technique is used to control the passage area of the air inlets to the relative humidity of the ventilated rooms, the relative humidity level being related to the humidity level. absolute and temperature by a perfectly determined physical law and known to those skilled in the art. Such a ventilation device comprises an air inlet with adjustable passage surface controlled by a sensor. The latter consists of a hygrosensitive tissue that is housed in the room to be ventilated and undergoes physical changes, elongation or retraction, depending on the relative humidity in the room.

Le Document US 4460122 divulgue un dispositif de ventilation selon le préambule de la revendication 1.The document US 4460122 discloses a ventilation device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Afin d'obtenir un dispositif de ventilation apte à mesurer de faibles variations de l'humidité relative découlant de la modification de l'occupation du local, et cela quelle que soit la saison, il est connu de l'homme du métier de placer ce capteur hygrosensible à une température, d'une part, différente de celle du local à ventiler, et d'autre part, prenant en compte la température extérieure. La température lue par le capteur hygrosensible peut alors être définie par l'équation suivante, T capt = T int − K T int − T ext ,

Figure imgb0001
dans laquelle Tcapt est la température lue par le capteur, Tint la température intérieure du local, Text la température extérieure, et K le coefficient de température prédéfini et généralement compris 0, 15 et 0, 35 dans les régions tempérées.In order to obtain a ventilation device capable of measuring small variations in the relative humidity resulting from the modification of the occupation of the room, and this whatever the season, it is known to those skilled in the art to place this hygrosensitive sensor at a temperature, on the one hand, different from that of the room to be ventilated, and on the other hand, taking into account the outside temperature. The temperature read by the hygrosensitive sensor can then be defined by the following equation, T Capt = T int - K T int - T ext ,
Figure imgb0001
 in which T capt is the temperature read by the sensor, T int is the internal temperature of the room, T ext the outside temperature, and K is the predefined temperature coefficient and generally 0, 15 and 0, 35 in the temperate regions.

Dans les dispositifs de ventilation actuels, le capteur hygrosensible est obligatoirement positionné au voisinage de l'entrée d'air afin d'être en communication thermique avec l'air extérieur. Il en découle de ce fait deux inconvénients majeurs :

  • d'une part, le débit de l'entrée d'air pouvant varier dans un rapport allant de 1 à 3 et parfois de 1 à 10, il en découle que les échanges thermiques entre l'air extérieur et le capteur hygrosensible ne sont pas véritablement maîtrisés à tout moment. Par conséquent, cela signifie qu'il n'est pas possible de fixer durablement le coefficient de température K à la valeur souhaitée,
  • d'autre part, l'assemblage du dispositif de ventilation est délicat à réaliser et les configurations géométriques autorisées sont limitées car il est nécessaire d'intégrer le capteur hygrosensible à proximité de l'entrée d'air.
In current ventilation devices, the hygrosensitive sensor is necessarily positioned in the vicinity of the air inlet in order to be in thermal communication with the outside air. As a result, there are two major disadvantages:
  • on the one hand, the flow of the air inlet can vary in a ratio ranging from 1 to 3 and sometimes from 1 to 10, it follows that the heat exchange between the outside air and the hygrosensitive sensor is not truly mastered at all times. Therefore, it means that it is not possible to set the temperature coefficient K permanently to the desired value,
  • on the other hand, the assembly of the ventilation device is difficult to achieve and the geometric configurations allowed are limited because it is necessary to integrate the hygrosensitive sensor near the air inlet.

La présente invention a pour but de résoudre les inconvénients cités précédemment, et concerne à cet effet un dispositif de ventilation selon la revendication 1.The present invention aims to solve the aforementioned drawbacks, and for this purpose relates to a ventilation device according to claim 1.

Ainsi, le fait de prévoir un conduit secondaire indépendant de l'entrée principale permet de parfaitement maîtriser l'influence de la température extérieure sur le capteur hygrosensible. En effet, ce dernier n'étant plus en communication thermique avec l'entrée d'air principale, dont la surface de passage est variable en fonction de l'occupation du local, mais avec le conduit secondaire dont la surface de passage est indépendante de celle de l'entrée d'air principale, les échanges thermiques entre l'air extérieur et le capteur hygrosensible sont régulés, et il est donc possible d'obtenir un coefficient de température K encore plus stable quel que soit le débit d'air passant par l'entrée principale.Thus, the fact of providing a secondary duct independent of the main entrance makes it possible to perfectly control the influence of the external temperature on the hygrosensitive sensor. Indeed, the latter being no longer thermal communication with the main air inlet, the passage area of which varies according to the occupation of the room, but with the secondary duct whose passage surface is independent of that of the main air inlet, the heat exchanges between the outside air and the hygrosensitive sensor are regulated, and it is therefore possible to obtain an even more stable temperature coefficient K irrespective of the flow of air passing through the main entrance.

De plus, l'assemblage d'un tel dispositif de ventilation est grandement simplifié puisqu'il n'est plus nécessaire d'intégrer le capteur hygrosensible au voisinage de l'entrée d'air principale. Le capteur hygrosensible peut ainsi être véritablement dissocié et éloigné de l'entrée d'air principale.In addition, the assembly of such a ventilation device is greatly simplified since it is no longer necessary to integrate the hygrosensitive sensor in the vicinity of the main air inlet. The hygrosensitive sensor can thus be truly dissociated and away from the main air inlet.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la section de passage du conduit secondaire est constante. Par conséquent, la quantité d'air traversant la surface de passage du conduit secondaire est sensiblement constante dans les configurations normales, c'est-à-dire lorsque l'écart en pression de part et d'autre du conduit est de l'ordre de quelques Pascals. Il est alors possible de fixer très précisément le coefficient de température K.According to a first preferred embodiment of the invention, the passage section of the secondary conduit is constant. Consequently, the quantity of air passing through the passage surface of the secondary duct is substantially constant in normal configurations, that is to say when the pressure difference across the duct is of the order some Pascals. It is then possible to set very precisely the temperature coefficient K.

Selon un second mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la surface de passage du conduit secondaire est asservie à la température extérieure. Cette modulation complémentaire peut être utile lorsque le climat est extrême, par exemple lorsque la température extérieure chute en dessous d'une valeur prédéterminée. En effet, dans ce cas, la variation de la quantité d'eau dans l'air extérieur est relativement faible en regard de la variation de la température. A titre d'exemple, on relève environ 2,5 g d'eau par kg d'air à -5°C et 1,6 g d'eau par kg d'air à -10°C, soit une différence de seulement 0,9 g d'eau par kg d'air. Dans cet exemple, de manière à rester dans la plage de fonctionnement du dispositif de ventilation, il est alors judicieux de réduire la surface de passage du conduit secondaire afin de limiter l'influence de la température extérieure sur le capteur hygrosensible, ce qui revient en définitive à fixer un nouveau coefficient de température K. Bien évidemment, la surface de passage du conduit secondaire peut être asservie à tout autre paramètre, sans aucune restriction.According to a second preferred embodiment of the invention, the passage surface of the secondary duct is slaved to the outside temperature. This complementary modulation may be useful when the climate is extreme, for example when the outside temperature drops below a predetermined value. Indeed, in this case, the variation of the amount of water in the outside air is relatively small compared to the variation of the temperature. For example, about 2.5 g of water per kg of air at -5 ° C and 1.6 g of water per kg of air at -10 ° C, a difference of only 0.9 g of water per kg of air. In this example, so as to remain within the operating range of the ventilation device, it is then advisable to reduce the passage area of the secondary duct in order to limit the influence of the external temperature on the hygrosensitive sensor, which amounts to definitively to set a new temperature coefficient K. Of course, the passing surface of the secondary conduit can be slaved to any other parameter without any restrictions.

Avantageusement, la section de passage du conduit secondaire est inférieure à 10 % de la section de passage de l'entrée d'air principale, et de préférence comprise entre 2 et 5 %.Advantageously, the passage section of the secondary duct is less than 10% of the passage section of the main air inlet, and preferably between 2 and 5%.

Préférentiellement, un isolant thermique est positionné entre le conduit secondaire et le capteur hygrosensible. Selon la configuration retenue, sans cet isolant thermique, il pourrait alors être nécessaire de prévoir un conduit secondaire présentant une surface de passage très réduite afin d'obtenir des échanges thermiques adéquats entre le conduit secondaire et le capteur hygrosensible. Cependant, dans un tel cas, il serait relativement délicat d'établir des échanges thermiques adéquats car toute perturbation entraînerait très rapidement une variation de la température du capteur hygrosensible, et donc du coefficient de température K. Par conséquent, la présence d'un isolant thermique intercalaire autorise l'utilisation d'un conduit secondaire à surface de passage élargie puisqu'il permet de tempérer, de façon prédéterminée, l'influence de ce dernier sur le capteur hygrosensible. De plus, la présence d'un isolant permet d'éviter la formation de condensation dans le compartiment du capteur hygrosensible, qui pourrait le perturber, voire l'endommager en cas de contact direct.Preferably, a thermal insulator is positioned between the secondary duct and the hygrosensitive sensor. Depending on the configuration chosen, without this thermal insulation, it may then be necessary to provide a secondary duct having a very small passage area in order to obtain adequate heat exchange between the secondary duct and the hygrosensitive sensor. However, in such a case, it would be relatively difficult to establish adequate heat exchange because any disturbance would very quickly cause a change in the temperature of the hygrosensitive sensor, and therefore the temperature coefficient K. Therefore, the presence of an insulator interlayer thermal allows the use of a secondary conduit with enlarged passage surface since it allows to temper, in a predetermined manner, the influence of the latter on the hygrosensitive sensor. In addition, the presence of an insulator prevents the formation of condensation in the hygrosensitive sensor compartment, which could disturb or even damage it in case of direct contact.

Avantageusement encore, l'entrée d'air principale et le capteur hygrosensible sont respectivement logés dans des compartiments distincts. Le conduit secondaire peut donc être ajusté aux conditions géométriques les plus variées.Advantageously, the main air inlet and the hygrosensitive sensor are respectively housed in separate compartments. The secondary duct can therefore be adjusted to the most varied geometrical conditions.

Préférentiellement, les deux compartiments sont positionnés dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre.Preferably, the two compartments are positioned in the extension of one another.

Préférentiellement encore, le capteur est réalisé à l'aide d'une bande de tissu hygrosensible rattachée, d'une part, à un élément fixe du compartiment dans laquelle elle est logée, et d'autre part, à un levier monté pivotant autour d'un axe de rotation. Avantageusement, ce levier est apte, par pivotement autour de son axe de rotation, à provoquer la mise en rotation d'une manivelle solidaire d'une tige à laquelle est rattaché un volet associé à l'entrée d'air principale.Preferably, the sensor is made using a hygrosensible fabric strip attached, on the one hand, to a fixed element of the compartment in which it is housed, and on the other hand, to a lever pivotally mounted around an axis of rotation. Advantageously, this lever is adapted, by pivoting about its axis of rotation, to cause the setting rotation of a crank integral with a rod to which is attached a flap associated with the main air inlet.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description détaillée qui est exposée ci-dessous en regard du dessin annexé dans lequel :

  • La figure 1 est une vue de face d'un dispositif de ventilation selon l'invention lorsque le volet est ouvert, avec omission des couvercles.
  • La figure 2 est une vue partielle en perspective du dispositif de ventilation représenté à la figure 1.
  • La figure 3 est une vue de face du dispositif de ventilation représenté à la figure 1 lorsque le volet est fermé.
The invention will be better understood with the aid of the detailed description which is set out below with reference to the appended drawing in which:
  • The figure 1 is a front view of a ventilation device according to the invention when the flap is open, with omission of the covers.
  • The figure 2 is a partial perspective view of the ventilation device shown in FIG. figure 1 .
  • The figure 3 is a front view of the ventilation device shown in FIG. figure 1 when the shutter is closed.

Un dispositif 1 de ventilation selon l'invention, tel que représenté à la figure 1, est destiné à être fixé à l'intérieur d'un local et comprend, d'une part, un premier compartiment 2 dans lequel est prévue une entrée d'air principale 3 dont la surface de passage est variable en fonction du positionnement d'un volet 4 qui lui est associé, et d'autre part, un second compartiment 5 dans lequel est ménagé un conduit secondaire 6 pouvant relier l'intérieur du local avec l'extérieur par l'intermédiaire d'une entrée d'air secondaire 7 découpée dans le fond 8 du compartiment 5. Ces deux compartiments 2, 5 sont disposés dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre et séparés l'un de l'autre par une paroi de séparation 23. Les couvercles obturant chacun des deux compartiments 2, 5 n'ont pas été représentés.A ventilation device 1 according to the invention, as shown in FIG. figure 1 , is intended to be fixed inside a room and comprises, on the one hand, a first compartment 2 in which is provided a main air inlet 3 whose passage surface is variable depending on the positioning of a shutter 4 associated with it, and secondly, a second compartment 5 in which is formed a secondary duct 6 can connect the interior of the room with the outside through a secondary air inlet 7 cut in the bottom 8 of compartment 5. These two compartments 2, 5 are arranged in the extension of one another and separated from one another by a partition wall 23. The covers closing each of the two compartments 2, 5 were not represented.

En se référant aux figures 1 à 3, on observe que le compartiment 5 renferme un capteur hygrosensible réalisé sous la forme d'une bande 9 horizontale de tissu hygrosensible, un isolant 10 disposé entre le conduit secondaire 6 et la bande 9, ainsi qu'un système d'actionnement du volet 4 associé à l'entrée d'air principale 3.Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , it is observed that the compartment 5 contains a hygrosensitive sensor in the form of a horizontal strip 9 of hygrosensitive tissue, an insulator 10 disposed between the secondary duct 6 and the strip 9, and an actuating system of the flap 4 associated with the main air inlet 3.

Plus précisément, le conduit secondaire 6 est délimité par le fond 8 du compartiment 5, par un bord inférieur 11 faisant saillie du fond 8, par la partie inférieure de l'isolant 10, et enfin par la face intérieure du couvercle du compartiment 5 (non représenté).More specifically, the secondary duct 6 is delimited by the bottom 8 of the compartment 5, by a lower edge 11 projecting from the bottom 8, by the lower part of the insulator 10, and finally by the inner face of the compartment lid 5 (not shown).

La bande 9 est rattachée, d'une part, au système d'actionnement du volet 4, et d'autre part, à un élément 13 solidaire du compartiment 5. Plus précisément, le système d'actionnement est réalisé à partir d'un levier 14 présentant une première extrémité à laquelle est rattachée ladite bande 9. Juste au dessus de ce point de rattachement, le levier 14 comporte un axe de rotation 15 dont les extrémités sont chacune logées dans une fente 16 d'une chape 17 rattachée au compartiment 5. Juste en dessous du point de rattachement entre la bande 9 et le levier 14, une lamelle 18 perforée est fixée dans l'extrémité du levier 14. Un ressort 19, maintenu étiré horizontalement entre la lamelle 18 et un ergot 20, permet de garder en permanence la bande 9 sous tension. Le levier 14 comporte également une seconde extrémité en forme de mâchoire 21 apte à coopérer avec une manivelle 22 traversant la paroi de séparation 23 entre les deux compartiments 2, 5. Cette manivelle 22 est solidaire d'une tige 24 horizontale à laquelle est rattachée le volet 4.The band 9 is attached, on the one hand, to the actuation system of the flap 4, and on the other hand, to an element 13 integral with the compartment 5. More precisely, the actuating system is made from a lever 14 having a first end to which is attached said band 9. Just above this point of attachment, the lever 14 has an axis of rotation 15 whose ends are each housed in a slot 16 of a yoke 17 attached to the compartment 5. Just below the point of attachment between the band 9 and the lever 14, a perforated plate 18 is fixed in the end of the lever 14. A spring 19, maintained stretched horizontally between the plate 18 and a pin 20, allows keep the band 9 on all the time. The lever 14 also has a second jaw-shaped end 21 adapted to cooperate with a crank 22 passing through the partition wall 23 between the two compartments 2, 5. This crank 22 is integral with a horizontal rod 24 to which is attached the part 4.

Le dispositif 1 de ventilation selon l'invention fonctionne de la manière suivante. La bande 9 de tissu hygrosensible réagit lorsqu'il se produit une augmentation ou une réduction significative de l'humidité relative au sein du local. La variation de la surface de passage de l'entrée d'air principale 3 est liée à la variation d'humidité relative du local et à la température dans le compartiment 5, influencée par la température extérieure. En effet, l'entrée d'air secondaire 7 possède une surface de passage constante laissant passer, en permanence, une quantité d'air sensiblement constante le long du conduit secondaire 6, cette quantité d'air modifiant tout d'abord la température de l'isolant 10 puis celle de la bande 9. Cette quantité d'air extérieur, après s'être écoulé le long du conduit secondaire 6, pénètre finalement dans le local et se mélange à l'air du local sans en modifier les caractéristiques.The ventilation device 1 according to the invention operates in the following manner. The band 9 of hygrosensitive tissue reacts when there is a significant increase or reduction of the relative humidity within the room. The variation of the passage area of the main air inlet 3 is related to the variation of the relative humidity of the room and the temperature in the compartment 5, influenced by the outside temperature. Indeed, the secondary air inlet 7 has a constant passage area permitting, at all times, a substantially constant quantity of air along the secondary duct 6, this quantity of air modifying first of all the temperature of the air. the insulator 10 and that of the band 9. This amount of outside air, after having passed along the secondary duct 6, finally enters the room and mixes with room air without changing the characteristics.

Aux figures 1 et 2, la surface de passage de l'entrée d'air principale 3 est maximale puisque le volet 4 est en position effacée. Au bout d'un certain temps, l'humidité relative au sein du local va chuter, ce qui va provoquer la rétractation de la bande 9. Celle-ci va alors exercer des efforts de traction sur le levier 14 supérieurs à ceux exercés par le ressort 19 sur la lamelle 18, et il en découle que le levier 14 va pivoter autour de son axe de rotation 15 dans le sens trigonométrique. Ce faisant, comme représenté à la figure 3, la mâchoire 21 du levier 14 va s'abaisser et va entraîner en rotation la manivelle 22 qui, elle-même, va provoquer la mise en rotation de la tige 24 et donc provoquer la fermeture du volet 4.To the figures 1 and 2 , the passage surface of the main air inlet 3 is maximum since the flap 4 is in the erased position. After a while, the relative humidity in the room will drop, which will cause the retraction of the band 9. This will then exert tensile forces on the lever 14 greater than those exerted by the spring 19 on the blade 18, and it follows that the lever 14 will pivot about its axis of rotation 15 in the trigonometric sense. In doing so, as represented in figure 3 , the jaw 21 of the lever 14 will lower and will rotate the crank 22 which, itself, will cause the rotation of the rod 24 and thus cause the closure of the flap 4.

A l'inverse, lorsque l'humidité relative augmente de façon significative au sein du local, la bande 9 s'allonge et provoque, par coopération avec le ressort 19, le pivotement du levier 14 autour de son axe de rotation 15 dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre. Par conséquent, la mâchoire 21 du levier 14 s'élève et entraîne en rotation la manivelle 22 qui, elle-même, provoque l'ouverture du volet 4 par actionnement sur la tige 24.Conversely, when the relative humidity increases significantly within the room, the strip 9 extends and causes, by cooperation with the spring 19, the pivoting of the lever 14 about its axis of rotation 15 in the direction clockwise. Consequently, the jaw 21 of the lever 14 rises and rotates the crank 22 which, itself, causes the flap 4 to open by actuation on the rod 24.

Bien que l'invention ait été décrite en liaison avec des exemples particuliers de réalisation, il est bien évident qu'elle n'y est nullement limitée et qu'elle comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci entrent dans le cadre de l'invention, telle que décrite dans les revendications 1-9.Although the invention has been described in connection with particular embodiments, it is obvious that it is not limited thereto and that it comprises all the technical equivalents of the means described and their combinations if they are within the scope of the invention as described in claims 1-9.
