Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Heizeinrichtung insbesondere Heizstab für Wärmekabinen mit mindestens einem innerhalb einer Wandung angeordneten Heizelement. Weiters betrifft die Erfindung eine Wärmekabine.The invention relates to a heating device, in particular heating rod for heat cabins with at least one arranged within a wall heating element. Furthermore, the invention relates to a heat cabin.

Zum Heizen von Wärmekabinen werden bereits Heizeinrichtungen, insbesondere Heizstäbe, eingesetzt, die innerhalb einer keramischen Wandung ein vorzugsweise elektrisches Heizelement aufweisen. Zwischen dem Heizelement und der Wandung hat man bisher Quarzsand eingefüllt. Es hat sich allerdings gezeigt, dass der Quarzsand vor allem beim üblicher Weise stehenden Einbau der Heizstäbe in sich zusammensackt und damit einem Teilbereich nicht mehr für die Wärmeübertragung vom Heizelement zur Wandung zur Verfügung steht.For heating heat cabins heating devices, in particular heating rods, are used, which have a preferably electrical heating element within a ceramic wall. Between the heating element and the wall has previously been filled quartz sand. However, it has been shown that the quartz sand, especially in the usual way stationary installation of the heating elements collapses and thus a part is no longer available for the heat transfer from the heating element to the wall.

Um dieses Problem zu lösen, schlägt die Erfindung vor, dass der das mindestens eine Heizelement aufnehmende Innenraum der Wandung zumindest teilweise mit Sand aus Eruptivgestein gefüllt ist.To solve this problem, the invention proposes that the at least one heating element receiving the interior of the wall is at least partially filled with sand from igneous rock.

Versuche haben gezeigt, dass dieser Sand aus Eruptivgestein (Lavasand) auch bei längerer Verwendung nicht in sich zusammensackt. Der Füllstand und die Funktionsfähigkeit des Heizstabes bleibt damit über lange Zeit erhalten.Experiments have shown that this sand of igneous rock (lava sand) does not collapse even during prolonged use. The level and the functionality of the heater remains so over a long time.

Weiter Vorteile und Einzelheiten werden anhand der nachfolgenden Figurenbeschreibung näher erläutert.Further advantages and details will be explained in more detail with reference to the following description of the figures.

Es zeigen:

Fig.1 1
einen Längsschnitt durch einen Teil eines Ausführungsbeispiels einer erfindungsgemäßen Heizeinrichtung, und
Fig. 2
eine schematische Draufsicht auf ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Wärmekabine.
Show it:
Fig.1 1
a longitudinal section through part of an embodiment of a heating device according to the invention, and
Fig. 2
a schematic plan view of an embodiment of a heat cabin according to the invention.

Die in Fig. 1 insgesamt mit 4 bezeichnete Heizeinrichtung weist eine gut wärmebeständige Wandung 1 aus Keramikmaterial auf. Diese ist im wesentlichen in der Form eines hohlzylindrischen Stabes ausgebildet. In der Fig. 1 ist lediglich das untere Ende dieses Stabes dargestellt. Das obere Ende kann im wesentlichen gleich ausgebildet sein.The heater designated by 4 in Fig. 1 has a good heat-resistant wall 1 of ceramic material. This is formed substantially in the form of a hollow cylindrical rod. In Fig. 1, only the lower end of this rod is shown. The upper end may be formed substantially the same.

Das untere Ende der stabförmigen Wandung 1 ist durch eine ebenfalls aus Keramikmaterial bestehende Abdeckkappe ein 1a verschlossen, welche eine elektrische Anschlusslasche 2a trägt. Diese elektrische Anschlusslasche führt zum schraubenförmigen Heizelement 2 (elektrischer Widerstandsheizdraht).The lower end of the rod-shaped wall 1 is closed by a likewise consisting of ceramic cap a 1a, which carries an electrical terminal tab 2a. This electrical connection tab leads to the helical heating element 2 (electrical resistance heating wire).

Erfindungsgemäß ist nun der Innenraum 1' der Wandung 1, in dem sich auch das Heizelement 2 befindet mit Sand aus Eruptivgestein (Lavasand) gefüllt. Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Heizstab vollständig gefüllt.According to the invention, the interior 1 'of the wall 1, in which the heating element 2 is located, is filled with sand from igneous rock (lava sand). In the present embodiment, the heating element is completely filled.

Als Korngröße des verwendeten Lavasandes hat sich eine Korngröße von höchstens 0,2 mm bis 0,5 mm herausgestellt. Der Lavasand weist zumindest eine, vorzugsweise mehrere der folgenden Komponenten auf: Plagioklas, Leucit, Nephelin, Klinopyroxen, Olivin, Magnetit und/oder Apatit.The grain size of the lava sand used has turned out to be a grain size of at most 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm. The lava sand has at least one, preferably more of the following components: plagioclase, leucite, nepheline, clinopyroxene, olivine, magnetite and / or apatite.

Die Erfindung betrifft auch eine Wärmekabine mit einer solchen Heizeinrichtung. Ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Wärmekabine ist in Fig. 2 in einer schematischen Draufsicht gezeigt. Die Wärmekabine ist von Wänden 5 umgeben und weist einen rechteckigen Grundriss auf. Innen kann sich eine Sitzbank 5a befinden. Man kann die Wärmekabine über eine Schwenktüre 5b betreten und verlassen. In den Ecken der Wärmekabine ist jeweils ein erfindungsgemäßes Heizelemente 4 vertikal angeordnet.The invention also relates to a heat cabin with such a heater. An embodiment of a heat cabin according to the invention is shown in Fig. 2 in a schematic plan view. The heat cabin is surrounded by walls 5 and has a rectangular plan. Inside can be a seat 5a. You can enter the heat cabin via a swing gate 5b and leave. In each case a heating elements 4 according to the invention is arranged vertically in the corners of the heating cabin.

Die Erfindung ist selbstverständlich nicht auf die dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. Beispielsweise kann die Anordnung der Heizelemente und die Form der Wärmekabine völlig von der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Darstellung abweichen. Auch die Heizeinrichtung selbst muss nicht notwendiger Weise stabförmig ausgebildet sein. Vielmehr sind auch flächige Ausbildungen durchaus denkbar und möglich.The invention is of course not limited to the illustrated embodiments. For example, the arrangement of the heating elements and the shape of the heat cabin can deviate completely from the illustration shown in FIG. Also, the heater itself does not necessarily have to be rod-shaped. Rather, even surface training is quite conceivable and possible.
