Abstract

The described invention refers to an improvement in padel court enclosures, which is designed for padel courts, whose closing is made of glass or other transparent material, in order to avoid condensation problems and the effects that this causes on said surfaces, making a double transparent enclosure that makes up an air chamber, heatable by resistances.

Description

Improvement in track closures of Paddle.

The present invention, as expressed in the set forth in this specification, refers to a system for avoid condensation in padel track enclosures with glass walls or similar transparent material.

Background of the invention

Padel is a sport similar to tennis, which is practice on a track of smaller dimensions and that is closed by four walls that also intervene in the game.

There are several backgrounds on enclosures of paddle courts, such as W 04000192ES, U 200402696, P 200202471 and P 200100029. In most cases the enclosure it is made of concrete, in the latter case it is about enclosures of crystal.

In no case have we found background that treat an existing problem on the slopes with enclosures of glass, crystal or similar transparent material, which is produced by condensation

The condensation that can occur in the walls, which are involved in the game, I could cause two problems: 1st Transparent surfaces fog up preventing vision correct from the outside of the track; 2nd The humidity produced by condensation and deposited on the walls, moistens the ball of game and causes an irregular boat on it, both on the track and on the moistened walls.

Description of the invention

Padel courts are generally made with enclosure panels installed on uprights, These panels can be of various materials (concrete or glass usually).

In case the panels are made of concrete, the problem addressed by this invention is not transcendent; but when the panels used are made of glass or materials transparent (something important in the case of competitions with public, for the observation of the game), I could present a problem depending on the outside and inside temperature, and the degree of humidity in the environment, which is the condensation of water On the walls This condensation causes fogging of the themselves and therefore the lack of vision on the part of the public, and also the condensed water causes the ball to contact the walls get wet, which in turn causes the boat to The ball is irregular and not predictable.

These two problems cause the construction of tracks opt for the use of panels concrete, on the transparent ones, something very difficult in the case of competitions with the public.

The procedure described in this invention, solve the problem of condensation on the walls by of installing a double panel with an indoor air chamber heated by resistors, which prevents condensation and fogging

Brief description of the drawings

For the best understanding of how much is left described herein, some drawings are attached in the that, just as an example, a practical case of completion of the track closures of paddle.

In figure 1, the double panel of enclosure, where 1 is the transparent outer panel, 2 the panel inside of the track also transparent, 3 the clamp of the panels, 4 is the heated air chamber between the two panels, 5 is the upper closing profile of the air chamber and 6 heating resistors

Description of a preferred embodiment

The improvement in track enclosures paddle, described in this invention is done by placing a wall perimetral to the game track, formed by uprights or columns of aluminum or stainless steel (3) and tempered glass panels of about 12 mm thick approximately (2).

Parallel to this interior enclosure, it make another similar enclosure with uprights and glass panels tempered thinner than the interiors (1) that present in the center a plastic safety sheet as protection against breakage, forming between them an air chamber (4), which is closed in the top by a profile (5).

On the floor of this air chamber, they are arranged radiant heating resistors (6), so that they can heating the air chamber formed between the two panels, regulating the temperature by means of a thermostat, avoiding this forms condensation and fogging surfaces glazed

Claims (1)

1. Improvement in padel court enclosures that being of the type formed by uprights and glass panels or other transparent material, is characterized by presenting a double outer perimeter enclosure also formed by uprights and glass panels or other transparent material, forming between them an air chamber, this air chamber is heated by resistors and the temperature is regulated by thermostat.
