  • the present invention relates to a non-electromagnetic wave temperature controller for a heating cable and a method therefor, which can perform heating and temperature detection in a non-electromagnetic fashion without short-circuiting one end of the heating cable that is used in warmers, such as electric floors, electric mats and electric fomentation devices. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a temperature detection non-electromagnetic heating cable and a temperature controller, which can reduce the amount of heat and control temperature without using a separate temperature sensor when the temperature of the heating cable is controlled or an arbitrary portion of the heating cable is overheated, and can prevent a magnetic field from being generated in the heating cable without short-circuiting one end of electrical heating wires and intercept the generation of a leakage electric field.
  • Conditions surrounding a bed are important factors governing humans' sleep.
  • many homes widely use electrically heated bedding and warmers, such as electric floors, electric mats or electric fomentation devices.
  • electrically heated bedding and warmers contain heating cables, so that heat is generated when power is supplied to the heating cables.
  • a temperature controller that detects temperature around a heating cable and controls power supply based on the detected temperature is essential.
  • temperature is detected in such a way as to short-circuit one of two parallelly arranged metallic electrical heating wires and provide a temperature sensor separate from a heating cable.
  • the method in which the temperature sensor and the heating wire are separated from each other is problematic in that it cannot detect the temperature of the overall heating cable caused by an internal short circuit of the heating cable or local overheating at an arbitrary location. Accordingly, there are problems in that a fire and an electric shock may occur when the heating cable is locally overheated, short-circuited or cut.
  • Another conventional method includes a method of short-circuiting one end of two parallelly arranged metallic electrical heating wires, installing a separate sensor on the circumferential surface or internal central surface of the end and detecting temperature using a third electric wire.
  • JP 10255457 describes a conductor in which the direction of carrying current is reversed between a first heating wire and a second heating wire so that magnetic fields generated in the heating wires are mutually cancelled.
  • a sensor wire consisting of a metal ribbon is wound on the outer surface of the conductor
  • the method of detecting temperature using a third electric wire without separating a heating cable wire therefrom is problematic in that a temperature sensor layer and a third metallic layer are added to the heating cable and, therefore, the thickness of a non-magnetic field electrical heating wire increases so that it cannot be used for thin bedding, a manufacturing process of a heating cable is complicated, and manufacturing costs increase. Furthermore, all of the above-described methods have problems in that they have the problem of temperature control of the heating cable, they cannot be used in practice due to the excessive thickness of the heating cable and they cannot intercept harmful electromagnetic waves caused by voltage or current.

  • the heater coil and the shield are connected at the ends thereof and electrically in series to each other, and the front ends thereof become power input terminals that are connected to the (+) and (-) terminals of the power source.
  • the conventional non-magnetic field heating cable has disadvantages in that it is provided with an internal insulation element, so that the thickness of the heating cable is excessive and the flexibility thereof is poor. That is, in the conventional non-magnetic field heating cable for bedding, the internal insulation element is softened by high temperature heat generated from the heater coil during heating and the insulation property of the internal insulation element rapidly degrades, so that the thickness of the internal insulation element should be large so as to prevent the short circuit of the heater coil and the shield.
  • the thickness of the conventional heating cable is at least 6 mm, so that problems arise in that the conventional heating cable protrudes and presses a human's body when the heating cable is applied to an electric mat, and it is almost impossible to apply the conventional heating cable to thin bedding, such as electric mats, electric blankets and electric floors, due to the thickness and flexibility of the conventional heating cable.
  • the present applicant invented a heating cable disclosed in Korean Unexamined Pat. Publication No. 2004-87853 .
  • the improved heating cable is advantageous in that the thickness of an internal insulation element is reduced using a heating wire coated with enamel, and performance is not degraded when bending stress is repeatedly applied to the heating cable, since a lead wire is wound around the outer surface of an internal insulation element.
  • the improved heating cable cannot perform functions of detecting local overheating and accordingly controlling conduction.
  • local overheating occurs or the actual temperature exceeds a reference temperature at an arbitrary location of a heating cable of several tens of meters
  • power is shut off because there is the danger of a fire or a burn.
  • a separate temperature detection device is required. That is, inconvenience arises in that a plurality of temperature detection devices are additionally provided at arbitrary locations to detect the temperature of a long heating cable.
  • These temperature detection devices are configured to protrude outside bedding, thus inconveniencing users.
  • a problem arises in that it is difficult to attach the temperature detection devices to thin bedding.

  • a metallic braid element 354a formed by braiding metal 354a surrounds a thermistor 353 and the linear members 354b of the braid element are drawn from both ends of the braid element.
  • the operating principle of the present embodiment is similar to that of the preceding embodiment.
  • the present embodiment is different from the preceding embodiment in the construction of the second electrical heating layer.
  • the metallic braid element 354a is produced by braiding a plurality of metallic strands and adjusting the width of the braided metallic strands to capacity, and the members of the metallic braid element 354a are drawn and used to pass a current therethrough.
  • the shape of the metallic braid element 354a is not limited.
  • the metallic braid element may be formed in a tape shape extending in a longitudinal direction and be spirally wound.
  • the metallic braid element may be formed by bundling a plurality of metallic strands in a tape shape, and be spirally wound.
  • the metallic braid element 354a performs the shielding function of interrupting an electric field while surrounding the thermistor 353.
  • an aluminum sheet 354c surrounds a thermistor 353, and a lead wire 354d is spirally wound around the circumferential surface of the aluminum sheet 354c.
  • the aluminum sheet 354c is formed to surround the thermistor 353 and performs a shielding function to interrupt an electric field.
  • the lead wire 354d wound around the circumferential surface of the aluminum sheet 354c drains charges accumulated on the aluminum sheet 354c and, therefore, reduces an electrical resistance value, thus reducing ground and an electric potential.
  • Aluminum has flexibility, is easy to machine, and has low material cost compared to copper. When an electrical circuit is formed by connecting aluminum to foreign metal using soldering, it is difficult to solder the aluminum to the metal.
  • a lead wire 354d is used together with aluminum, which reduces the electrical resistance value of the aluminum sheet 354c.
  • FIGS. 52 and 53 are diagrams illustrating a circuit connected to the heating cable of the present invention, and the principle thereof.

  • the front half period of an AC cycle outputs variation in the temperature resistance value of a thermistor 313 located between the electrical heating wire 312 of a first electrical heating layer and the lead wires 314a and 314b of the second electrical heating layer to a unidirectional diode 317.
  • a temperature detection signal current passes through the electrical heating wire 312 of the first electrical heating layer, makes a U-turn in the thermistor 313, and turns through the second electrical heating layer.
  • temperature detection signal currents flowing through the electrical heating wire 312 and the lead wires 314a and 314b flow in opposite directions, so that magnetic fields cancel each other and, therefore, the temperature detection signals flow in a non-magnetic wave state.
  • the unidirectional diode 317 is used to indicate that a temperature detection operation and a heating operation are separated from each other in an theoretical equivalent circuit and it is used and operates in the temperature detection operation. Meanwhile, in the construction of an actual circuit, a small signal power below several mW is sufficient for the temperature control unit (not shown) that receives the temperature signal voltage, so that the output value of the temperature signal voltage of the temperature voltage control unit (not shown) is below several mW. Furthermore, according to the setting of the self input signal amplifying point of the temperature control unit 30, a both (+) and (-) wave signal, or a (+) or (-) signal is selected and an arbitrary operation may be performed.
  • a temperature detection temperature voltage detection rectifier 17 is used in an overlapping manner from a logical point of view, so that the temperature voltage detection unidirectional diode 317 may be omitted. That is, when the temperature signal voltage conversion consumption power of the NTC thermistor 14 is conversion-detected at less than several mW, an AC voltage or a DC voltage may be selected as the NTC thermistor detection signal voltage, and the application of the temperature voltage detection unidirectional diode may be selected according to the condition in which the temperature control unit sets an operating point at which a thermistor detection input signal operates.
  • heating starts in the rear half period.

  • heating currents flowing through the electrical heating wire 312 and the lead wires 314a and 314b flow in opposite directions, so that the phases of magnetic fields are opposite and, therefore, the magnetic fields are cancelled. Accordingly, a heating current flows in a non-magnetic wave state.
  • a conductive coating layer 316 When a conductive coating layer 316 is provided as shown in FIG. 53 , operation is the same as the above-described operation.
  • the conductive coating layer 316 functions to intercept an electric field leaking between the lead wires 314a and 314b of the second electrical heating layer.
  • FIG. 54 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a principle by which the electrical field leaks from the heating cable and a principle by which the electric field is intercepted in the heating cable provided with the conductive coating layer.
  • FIG. 54a illustrates the state in which a leakage electric field is formed when there is no conductive coating layer
  • FIG. 54b illustrates the state in which the conductive coating layer 16 prevents a leakage electric field from forming.
  • FIG. 54c illustrates an embodiment in which an object having a wide shape, such as a copper film, is used as the second electrical heating layer.

  • the conductive coating layer 316 When the conductive coating layer 316 is coated to surround the thermistor layer 313 and the lead wires 314a and 314b of the second electrical heating layer, the conductive coating layer 316 covers the parts of the lead wire of the second electrical heating layer that are not completely covered, so that the generation of the leakage electric field is prevented.
