Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of sanitary engineering, and more specifically sauna technology.
- the invention is a sauna indoor climate adjusting device, which allows to adjust/harmonize the internal temperature and/or the CO 2 level and/or humidity inside of a sauna, and the different methods of making the sauna indoor climate more comfortable for the user.
- Korean patent application KR20100106076 discloses a ventilation fan for the circulation of hot air in a sauna, whereby the ventilation fan is steam-powered.
- the device provided, however, generates a rapid circulation of hot air, or wind, in the sauna, which burns when being exposed to the body.
- Finnish patent FI102514 discloses a sauna heater, which directs hot steam downward, unlike known sauna heaters. While the result is a more evenly heated sauna, the device provided does not mix the cooler lower air layers with the upper air layers.
- Finnish patent FI90820 discloses a device that consists of a collector above the heater as well as pipes which direct the hot steam to the sauna benches.
- the device provided does not heat both the lower and upper air layers, and that is the reason why the temperatures of the lower and upper air layers are different, causing discomfort.
- European Patent EP0121500A2 discloses a device as described in the preamble of claim 1.
- the hot air from the upper air layers of the sauna must be directed into the lower air layers of the sauna, by mixing these, and in a manner that would avoid causing discomfort due to the so-called hot wind, cool and mix the air with cooler air from the lower layers before discharging it into the "targeted spot (or spots)".
- Existing solutions in accordance with the state of the art do not enable mixing of the air layers.
- the oxygen used by people for breathing in the sauna and the resulting heightened CO 2 level in the sauna, are compensated by continuously ventilating with ambient air. This occurs while human beings are in the room as well as when no one is in the room that is being heated. Such a process requires additional heating to maintain the temperature balance, and is not energy efficient.
- Known sauna solutions are not very healthy, because the process of increasing fresh air is uncontrollable and the CO 2 level may therefore exceed the healthy limit.
- the present invention is related to a sauna indoor climate adjusting device as disclosed in claim 1 and method as disclosed in claim 12 for adjusting it, through which the climate of the sauna is made more comfortable.
- a sauna indoor climate adjusting device as disclosed in claim 1 and method as disclosed in claim 12 for adjusting it, through which the climate of the sauna is made more comfortable.
- the device provided with the invention allows adjusting the climate of a sauna and compensating for the feeling of discomfort.
- the device With the device provided, it is easy to direct a portion of the steam to the lower air layers of the sauna by adjusting the output of the ventilation fan and mix (cool) steam with air from the lower air layers as desired/needed. With the device, it is also possible to mix the air layers of the sauna, which creates a feeling of comfort in the sauna, which means that as a result, the temperature difference of the layers is considerably lower, and the temperature difference between the location of the head and the feet is smaller. As desired, the device enables to increase and decrease the efficiency of the device by adjusting the capacity of the ventilation fan, and change the temperature of the steam, or water vapour by adjusting openness of the lower air valve, wherein the vapour is directed to the lower section of the sauna.
- the device provided is portable, and in a second preferred embodiment of the invention, the device is integrated, which can be used as technical solutions when building new saunas, as well as in existing saunas.
- the sauna indoor climate adjusting device provided with the invention has an accompanying CO 2 sensor, which allows the device to take as much fresh air from the outside as needed to compensate the oxygen used by the people in the room while breathing. Due to the air renewal controlled with the CO 2 sensor, a healthy microclimate is also ensured in the sauna, therefore being in the room of the sauna is safer.
- the device can also be used to generate a steam sauna effect, where by continuously cooling/mixing/directing down the steam at a higher capacity, it is possible to fill the sauna with warm humid steam.
- Sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 which is schematically shown in Figures 1 to 6 , contains a hot air and steam inlet channel 2, which is vertical and located in the upper section of the device and the sauna, a cooler air and water vapour inlet channel 3, which is horizontal and which is located in the lower section of the device and the sauna.
- the hot air and steam inlet channel 2 is horizontal and the cooler air and water vapour inlet channel 3 is vertical.
- Both inlet channels 2 and 3 contain an adjusting valve (not shown in the figures).
- Inlet channels 2 and 3 are connected with mixing chamber 4, which, in turn, includes ventilation fan 5 and a mixing valve (not shown in the figures) and is connected to outlet channel 6. Ventilation fan 5 in mixing chamber 4 is controllable with a speed regulator.
- Sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 has support legs 7, which allow placing the device onto a suitable surface. As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , in one embodiment, the device is not permanently fixed to the sauna, which means that the device is portable. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 is used as a technical solution when building new saunas, whereas in such a case the device is integrated, as shown in Figure 4 to 6 , and the device has an additional inlet channel 8 for taking cooler air from outside of the sauna.
- sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 includes a controller for adjusting the device.
- the speed regulator of the ventilation fan is manually controllable and in another embodiment of the invention automatically controlled.
- the automatically controlled device has one or several thermo sensors 9, humidity sensor 10 and/or CO 2 sensor 11 connected with the regulator via electronic circuit for the adjustment of the rotations of the controller, which is used to adjust the rotations of ventilation fan 4 and the position of the mixing valve according to the prescribed temperature and parameters in order to achieve the desired comfort and prescribed temperature according to the parameters in the sauna.
- the speed regulator has a timer (not shown in the figures), which is used to adjust the temperature of the sauna to the desired temperature for a desired period.
- ventilation fan 5 has a controller, which switches the ventilation fan on according to the prescribed temperature schedule and adjusts the rotations of the ventilation fan/position of the valves according to the selected parameters.
- portable sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 is equipped with a battery and a direct current motor ventilation fan, which eliminates the need for an electrical connection in the sauna.
- the opening of inlet channel 2 is non-vertical and the opening of inlet channel 3 is non-horizontal (not shown in the figures).
- the openings of the inlet channels in the alternative embodiments are funnel shaped, which specifies more clearly the section of the sauna from which the inlet air and steam is pulled into inlet channel 2 or 3.
- the invention also has more than 1 of outlet channels 6, so that several outlet channels are linkable parts of a pipe system, which can be used to direct the mix of vapour and air, and distribute it to different sections of the sauna.
- hot steam is directed to hot air and steam vapour inlet channel 2
- cooler air and water vapour from the lower layers of the sauna are directed into inlet channel 3.
- Hot air and steam from the upper layers as well as cooler air from the lower layers of air is directed into the mixing chamber 4 where the initial mixing of the air flows takes place.
- the initially mixed air is pulled from the mixing chamber 4 through the ventilation fan, which is used to perform the final mixing of the air flow, and the cooled mix of water vapour and air is directed into the outlet channel.
- the cooler air and water vapour inlet channel 3 is closed and adjustable with a valve.
- the device can be used to generate circulation of air and water vapour in the sauna.
- the end of cooler air inlet channel 3 is outside of the sauna and the inlet air is taken outside of the sauna, or the end of the inlet channel is partly outside of the sauna, partly inside and the inlet air is taken partly from the inside and partly from the outside, and adjusted with an distributing valve according to the settings provided in the controller.
- Air taken outside or outside and inside of the sauna is automatically mixed with an automatic flap valve, which is adjusted with a controller according to the prescribed settings (CO 2 /temperature difference up-down/humidity percentage).
- the rotating speed of a ventilation fan of sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 and openness of the adjusting valves of inlet channels 2, 3, 8 are adjusted in a way that an optimal oxygen level would be constantly ensured in the sauna, and according to the indication of the CO 2 sensor, an optimal quantity of ambient air would be constantly added into the sauna, which ensures a healthy (optimal) heating mode, and thus, necessary heat energy for heating the sauna is saved.
- Adjusting in the sauna is as follows: if, according to the sensor, the CO 2 concentration exceeds 900 PPM, the adjusting valve of lower cooler air inlet channel 3, which is inside of the sauna, is closed and the adjusting valve of outside cooler air inlet channel 8 is opened at its maximum capacity, which means that all the mixed cooler air is taken from outside of the sauna.
- the aim is to keep the CO 2 content in the sauna lower than 900 PPM and/or in the range of 800 to 900 PPM. If the CO 2 content is lower than 900 PPM and/or in the range of 800 to 900 PPM, only internal air circulation is operational and there is no need to take additional fresh air outside of the sauna, which means that ventilation is switched off, i.e., the adjusting valve of cooler air inlet channel 8 is closed and the adjusting valve of cooler air inlet channel 3, which is inside of the sauna, is open. Such a mode saves energy, because the sauna requires a smaller heating effort. If the CO 2 concentration exceeds 900 PPM, additional fresh air will be taken outside of the sauna until a normal healthy CO 2 concentration is recovered, which is lower than 900 PPM and/or in the range of 800 to 900 PPM.
- a lack of oxygen in the sauna is also caused by the conversion process where a portion of the oxygen is burned while air comes into contact with scorching metal surfaces, e.g. electrical heating elements, furnace surfaces of the heater, etc.
- scorching metal surfaces e.g. electrical heating elements, furnace surfaces of the heater, etc.
- the integrated version of the sauna indoor climate adjusting device in which cooler air is taken from outside of the sauna, ensures a safer and healthier time spent in the sauna, as the process is controlled with a CO 2 sensor and a safe oxygen level is guaranteed with an inflow of fresh air.
- the sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 can be used to generate a steam sauna (so-called Vietnamese sauna) effect in the sauna, by combining the rotations of the ventilation fan and openness of inlet channel 3, i.e., the cooler air valve. As a result, it is possible to collect the majority of the steam from the upper layers of the sauna, and cool it with the air from lower layers. This process can be performed manually as well as automatically.
- the sauna indoor climate adjusting device by adjusting the rotations of the ventilator fan and positioning of the lower inlet channel 3, i.e., cooler air, valve accordingly.
- sauna indoor climate adjusting device 1 includes ventilation fans of different capacities and air channels of different diameters.
