Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for producing ground fog as an effect, for example in the field of stage technology, with a fog fluid, e.g. Glycol-based fog machine evaporating.
- a fog fluid e.g. Glycol-based fog machine evaporating.
- Known fog machines evaporate a fog fluid which in different composition meets the requirements together with the setting parameters of the machines. For example, the service life and the density as well as the flow rate can be adjusted and varied. Even in fire-fighting exercises, stage fog is used to simulate smoke, so that the handling of respiratory protection equipment can be trained in a realistic way.
- stage fog is used to simulate smoke, so that the handling of respiratory protection equipment can be trained in a realistic way.
- dry ice namely solid frozen C0 2
- This evaporates at room temperature a very nice, uniform and long-lasting fog layer forms on the floor, which can be even better staged by light effects.
- the procurement and cooling of sufficient quantities of dry ice is problematic and also expensive. It has also been used for this purpose, liquid nitrogen, which, however, must also be cooled.
- Mist of evaporating dry ice displaces the oxygen in the air, causing breathing difficulties and headaches in humans. This mist also has an influence on the voice, which is adversely affected by prolonged contact with dry ice mist due to dehydration in the throat. Neither C0 2 nor nitrogen are good for your health.
- the effect that can be achieved with dry ice can also be approximately produced with evaporator fog machines, which are followed by a cooling stage.
- hazers are known for cooling on hot days, so fans with fine water droplets in the air stream. These cool down the airflow and positively influence the sensation of humans in high heat.
- the invention aims to provide a method and a device for the production of an effective ground fog which is long-lasting, in no way healthy. Harmful and is perceived as pleasant by singers, actors, musicians and the public. This is achieved by enriching the mist in or out of the fog machine with water. It is particularly useful to guide the mist of a fog machine under pressure flowing mist for water enrichment through a water bath from which the mist rises again and is blown out. It has proved to be particularly effective if water droplets, preferably finely atomized water with a droplet size of 2 ⁇ to 10 ⁇ are added to the mist from the fog machine for enrichment with water, which keep the mist on the ground.
- An apparatus for carrying out the method is characterized in that the misting machine is arranged downstream of a mixing zone for mixing the mist with water droplets from a water atomizer, in particular from a Ultraschallzerstäuber. These finest water droplets adhere to the nebulae, stabilize them and hold them to the ground. Even if such a ground fog flows in an orchestra pit and then further into the audience, no unpleasant odor is felt. This fog is perceived as refreshing. Also on the vocal chords of singers this fog has a positive influence.
- a particular embodiment of the device is characterized in that the mist formed in the fog machine is guided into the intake region of a fan, in whose overpressure air flow the water atomizer or sprays, in particular one or more ultrasonic atomizers, are provided in the center of the fan or in the vicinity thereof are. Due to the water already contained in the air stream mixing is accelerated and the mist exits immediately with a correspondingly adjustable speed. If the individual parameters such as amount of mist, flow rate and water content to be set separately, it is advantageous if the mixing zone is designed as a mixing chamber and each has an input for the smoke machine and a forced air flow from a fan and if the air flow and the Fog in the mixing chamber over the water atomizer and at least one downstream baffle for water separation are performed.
- the mixing chamber contains a baffle before the mist leaves the mixer. This acts as a water separator, must be overflowed and deprives the mist of excess water. Height and inclination are adjustable to achieve the desired water content in the fog. The excess water passes directly to the atomizer and is used in this way again useful.
- the water atomizer can be assigned directly to the fan arranged at the outlet of a fog machine, from which the finished ground fog then emerges.
- the fan with atomizer can also blow the water-enriched air into a mixing chamber, into which the mist of a fog machine passes.
- the mixing chamber i contains at least one baffle wall for the separation of excess water. Following the baffle, the finished ground fog exits. It is expedient if a cooling device is integrated in the mixing zone or in the mixing chamber or is connected downstream of the mixing chamber. This measure supports the formation of ground fog.
- a particularly effective embodiment is characterized in that Peltier elements are provided following at least one baffle wall, in particular between a plurality of mutually spaced baffles, which form a labyrinth with opposite, immersed in the interstices baffles as a cooling device.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a second variant
- Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a third variant
- Fig. 4 is a schematic representation of an alternative embodiment of FIG. 2 in plan view.
- All embodiments are based on a commercial fog machine 1. These devices are mostly evaporator-based and have a tank for a fog fluid. According to FIG. 1, the output of the smoke machine 1 is followed by a fan 2, which accelerates the fog from the smoke machine 1 as needed and in the overpressure region of which a water atomizer 3 is arranged. The latter is fed via a tube 4 from a water tank 5.
- the water atomizer 3 may be formed as a spray nozzle when the water is supplied or sucked out at elevated pressure. However, it is particularly expedient if the water atomizer 3 operates on an ultrasound basis, as is known in humidifiers.
- the mist picks up the very fine water droplets in a mixing zone 6, which is formed by a mixing chamber 7, and leaves the device designed as an accessory to the smoke machine 1 at a mouthpiece 8 as water-enriched, heavy ground mist.
- Both the fan speed and the amount of atomized water are adjustable so that the ground fog can be adapted to the requirements. The adjustments are made such that the ground fog leaves no traces of moisture on a stage or the like.
- the fog generator is 1 ⁇ already be equipped with a fan at the output, then omitted the fan 2 and it can be turned on immediately the atomizer 3 in the ejected mist flow.
- the positioning of the atomizer 3 in the center of the mist-air flow is expedient.
- atomizers 3 may also be provided in a ring shape in the mist-air flow.
- FIG. 2 shows a variant of one of the fog machine 1 nachgeord ⁇ Neten device.
- This device has a housing with an inlet 9 for the fog of the fog machine 1 and a second inlet 10 for the intake of air through a Variable-speed fan 11.
- an atomizer 12 is provided, which is in communication with a water tank (not shown). According to FIG. 2, the atomizer 12 sprays upward, ie directly into the mixing zone with the inflowing mist and the blown-in air from the fan 11.
- the area of the housing is referred to as the mixing chamber 13.
- the water-enriched mist passes into a water separator 14 before it exits a mouthpiece 15.
- the water separator 14 here comprises a plurality of baffles 16, which form a labyrinth for the flowing mist and remove excess water from the mist. The latter flows back to the atomizer 12.
- a cooling device 17 for the flowing mist which may be formed for example by Peltier elements.
- Fig. 3 relates to an embodiment in which the atomizer 18 is not arranged downstream of the mixing chamber 13 (Fig. 2), but as in Fig. 1 directly downstream of a fan 19 for fresh air.
- the mist is combined with the water droplets from the fan flow.
- a baffle 21 for ⁇ bscheidung of excess water. The enriched, heavy mist must exceed this baffle 21, does not lose sufficient water bound to the nebulas and passes behind the baffle 21 to a lower-lying outlet 22, which may be surrounded by a cooling sleeve.
- Fig. 4 refers to Fig. 2, but may apply mutatis mutandis to other embodiments.
- the two inputs 9 and 10 lead the fog flow and the air flow not parallel, but at an acute angle to each other - here with crossing point in the cloud of sprayed from the atomizer 12 water droplets. It comes to a particularly good mixing and connection of the very fine water droplets to the fog.
- the water separator 14 ensures that the exiting mist remains enriched with water, but does not lose excess water, so as not to wet the stage, the actors, the spectators or objects.
- mist and water droplets are also possible in countercurrent. It can, for example, wise in Fig. 4, the water atomizer 12 be directed obliquely against the oncoming mist and against the air flow of the fan 11. As a result, an increase in efficiency and an even better connection of the water droplets to the mist occur.
