Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un nouveau dispositif chauffant électrique comportant une nappe chauffante souple et un dispositif de commande. The present invention relates to a new electric heating device comprising a flexible heating sheet and a control device.
II existe déjà des couvertures chauffantes ou couvre matelas chauffants comportant un long fil résistant conformé en zigzag, inséré et maintenu par piquage entre deux nappes textiles souples. There are already heating blankets or heating mattress covers comprising a long resistant wire shaped in a zigzag, inserted and held by stitching between two flexible textile sheets.
Le fi ! résistant est alimenté en 220 V et commandé par un boîtier à simple marche arrt et double position de chauffe. The fi! resistant is supplied with 220 V and controlled by a single stop-stop unit and double heating position.
Pour produire la chute de tension et l'effet Joule nécessaire, le fil est très long et fin (0,05 à 0,2 mm) et bobiné autour d'une âme centrale isolante, par exemple en fibre de verre (augmentant sensiblement sa résistance mécanique), le tout étant noyé dans une gaine isolante. Le bobinage du fil crée un effet d'inductance préjudiciable. To produce the voltage drop and the necessary Joule effect, the wire is very long and thin (0.05 to 0.2 mm) and wound around a central insulating core, for example made of fiberglass (significantly increasing its mechanical resistance), the whole being embedded in an insulating sheath. The winding of the wire creates a detrimental inductance effect.
Malgré la présence de t'âme centrale le fil résistant reste fragile et l'utilisation de ce type de nappe chauffante reste limitée. Despite the presence of the central core, the resistant wire remains fragile and the use of this type of heating mat remains limited.
Le demandeur s'est fixé comme objectif de réaliser une nappe chauffante pouvant tre utilisée notamment comme tapis chauffant, posé à mme le sol et dont la résistance à la pression et au cisaillement est suffisamment importante pour que l'on puisse y marcher en chaussures. The applicant has set itself the objective of producing a heating mat which can be used in particular as a heating mat, placed on the same floor and the pressure and shear strength of which is high enough for one to be able to walk there in shoes.
La technologie et les composants des nappes chauffantes connues n'étant pas adaptés, le demandeur a ainsi rencontré un premier problème technique à résoudre. Since the technology and components of known heating layers are not suitable, the applicant has thus encountered a first technical problem to be solved.
II a rencontré un autre problème technique au niveau de la sécurité électrique Un tapis étant plus exposé qu'une couverture aux risque d'une électrocution due par exemple au renversement d'un liquide, à un arrachement accidentel, etc.. He encountered another technical problem in terms of electrical safety. A carpet being more exposed than a blanket to the risk of electrocution due for example to the spillage of a liquid, to accidental tearing, etc.
Un autre problème encore à résoudre était la suppression du bobinage pour réduire l'effet d'inductance. Another problem still to be solved was the elimination of the winding to reduce the inductance effect.
Le demandeur a résolu simultanément l'ensemble de ces problèmes en utilisant un fil plus gros pouvant tre alimenté en basse tension et ne nécessitant plus d'tre bobiné autour d'une âme centrale. The applicant simultaneously resolved all of these problems by using a larger wire which can be supplied with low voltage and no longer needs to be wound around a central core.
Conformément à l'invention, tous ces problèmes sont résolus par un dispositif chauffant électrique déplaçable du type nappe chauffante avec dispositif de commande, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte au moins une couche chauffante formée d'au moins un fil chauffant disposé en zigzag ou en boucles, inséré entre deux nappes support flexibles, et en ce que le fil chauffant est un fil multibrins alimenté en courant alternatif très basse tension par l'intermédiaire d'un bloc de commande lui-mme branché sur la tension du secteur. According to the invention, all these problems are solved by a movable electric heating device of the heating sheet type with control device, characterized in that it comprises at least one heating layer formed by at least one heating wire arranged in a zigzag or in loops, inserted between two flexible support plies, and in that the heating wire is a multi-strand wire supplied with very low voltage alternating current by means of a control unit itself connected to the mains voltage.
En outre, la ou les couches chauffantes sont protégées par un tapis et un sous tapis assemblés par une couture de bordure. In addition, the heating layer (s) are protected by a carpet and an under carpet assembled by a border seam.
De façon préférentielle, les brins constituant le fil conducteur sont légèrement torsadés pour assurer la cohésion sans créer d'effet d'inductance. Preferably, the strands constituting the conductive wire are slightly twisted to ensure cohesion without creating an inductance effect.
Selon le type d'utilisation, on peut prévoir plusieurs zones chauffantes indépendantes dans un mme tapis, par exemple un tapis pour fauteuil en comportera deux pour chauffer indépendamment ou simultanément le siège et le dossier du fauteuil. Depending on the type of use, several independent heating zones can be provided in the same carpet, for example an armchair carpet will have two of them to heat the seat and the back of the armchair independently or simultaneously.
L'invention porte également sur un bloc de commande spécifique alimente sur le secteur et délivrant en sortie une très basse tension, comportant une isolation galvanique. The invention also relates to a specific control block that supplies power from the mains and deliver a very low voltage output, comprising galvanic isolation.
On comprendra mieux l'invention à l'aide de la description qui suit faite en référence aux figures annexées : -figure 1 : vue d'ensemble en éclaté d'un tapis chauffant selon l'invention donné à titre
d'exemple de réalisation non limitatif ; -figure 2 : vue partielle et de détail de la partie chauffante de la figure ; -figure 3 : schéma fonctionnel d'un bloc de commande électronique pouvant tre

Le tapis chauffant représenté en figures 1 et 2, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif de l'invention, comporte une couche chauffante (1) formée d'un fil chauffant (3) disposé en zigzag ou en boucles, inséré entre deux nappes support (2) en matériau électriquement isolant et flexible dans les trois dimensions. The heating mat shown in Figures 1 and 2, given by way of nonlimiting example of the invention, comprises a heating layer (1) formed of a heating wire (3) arranged in a zigzag or in loops, inserted between two layers support (2) made of electrically insulating and flexible material in three dimensions.
Les nappes support (2) sont assemblées entre elles par exemple par des points de colle ou des coutures (4) parallèles disposées dans les axes des boucles de façon à les maintenir séparées les unes des autres. The support plies (2) are assembled together for example by glue stitches or parallel seams (4) arranged in the axes of the loops so as to keep them separated from each other.
La couche chauffante (1)-est protégée par un tapis (5) et un sous-tapis (6) placés de part et d'autre de la couche (1) et assemblés par exemple par une couture en bordure et si nécessaire par des jonctions ou coutures intermédiaires. The heating layer (1) is protected by a mat (5) and an underlay (6) placed on either side of the layer (1) and assembled for example by a seam at the edge and if necessary by junctions or intermediate seams.
On peut prévoir des variantes de réalisation à plusieurs fils chauffants et/ou avec d'autres formes de piquage (par exemple perpendiculaires à l'axe des boucles). It is possible to provide alternative embodiments with several heating wires and / or with other forms of stitching (for example perpendicular to the axis of the loops).
Pour le tapis (5) et le sous-tapis (6), on pourra choisir selon l'usage des matériaux identiques ou non parmi les exemples suivants. une nappe en non-tissé, une découpe de moquette, un textile répondant aux normes de classement au feu, etc.. For the carpet (5) and the under-carpet (6), one can choose according to the use of identical or different materials from the following examples. a non-woven tablecloth, a cut out of carpet, a textile meeting fire classification standards, etc.
Le fil conducteur chauffant employé est un fil multibrins en alliage, par exemple à 6 ou 7 brins d'un diamètre d'environ 0,3 mm, légèrement torsadés pour assurer leur cohésion sans créer d'effet d'inductance, et guipés par une gaine isolante souple. The heating conductive wire used is a multi-strand alloy wire, for example with 6 or 7 strands with a diameter of about 0.3 mm, slightly twisted to ensure their cohesion without creating an inductance effect, and covered by a flexible insulating sheath.
Le fil conducteur (3) est alimente en courant alternatif par t'intermédiaire d'un bloc de commande électronique (7) dont le schéma fonctionnel est donné en figure 3, et monté dans un boîtier de protection (8). The conducting wire (3) is supplied with alternating current by means of an electronic control unit (7), the functional diagram of which is given in FIG. 3, and mounted in a protective box (8).
Le bloc de commande (7) assure plusieurs fonctions. The control unit (7) performs several functions.
II abaisse la tension d'alimentation au niveau très basse tension (inférieur à 12 volts), assure une double isolation, permet de faire varier la tension å la demande de l'utilisateur afin d'ajuster la puissance correspondant à son besoin. It lowers the supply voltage to the very low voltage level (less than 12 volts), provides double insulation, makes it possible to vary the voltage at the request of the user in order to adjust the power corresponding to his need.
II assure également la régulation, les protections contre les surcharges, contre les élévations de température et contre les courts-circuits. It also provides regulation, protection against overloads, against temperature rises and against short-circuits.
Le schéma fonctionnel montre, entre les entrées (15) à 220 V, 50 Hz et les sorties (16) très basse tension protégée : l'étage (9) faisant office de filtre et de redresseur, )'étage (10) de traitement du signal, I'étage (11) d'ajustement, I'étage (12) d'isolation galvanique, des moyens de sécurité (13) et un visualisateur d'état (14). The functional diagram shows, between the inputs (15) at 220 V, 50 Hz and the outputs (16) protected very low voltage: the stage (9) acting as filter and rectifier,) 'stage (10) of treatment signal, the stage (11) of adjustment, the stage (12) of galvanic isolation, security means (13) and a status viewer (14).
Le bloc (7) est adaptable sans difficultés à une nappe chauffante selon l'invention qui comporterait plusieurs fils conducteurs chauffants tels que (3) répartis en plusieurs zones chauffantes dans une mme couche (1), ou dans plusieurs couches telles que (1) insérées entre le tapis et le sous-tapis. The block (7) is easily adaptable to a heating sheet according to the invention which would include several heating conductive wires such as (3) distributed in several heating zones in the same layer (1), or in several layers such as (1) inserted between the mat and the underlay.
Le courant alternatif peut tre sinusoïdal ou non. The alternating current can be sinusoidal or not.
Une nappe chauffante selon l'invention peut faire partie intégrante d'un tapis, ou tre rapportée sous un tapis, une moquette ou un autre revtement posé sur le sol, ou comporter une housse amovible ou non. A heating sheet according to the invention can be an integral part of a carpet, or be attached under a carpet, a carpet or other covering placed on the floor, or include a removable cover or not.
Elle permet, à partir d'une simple prise de courant de créer une mini dalle chauffante mobile, utilisable par les adultes, personnes âgées, enfants, animaux, plantes, objets craignant le froid ou t'humidité. It allows, from a simple outlet to create a mobile mini heating panel, usable by adults, elderly, children, animals, plants, objects fearful of cold or humidity.
Une nappe chauffante selon l'invention peut comporter, comme indiqué précédemment, plusieurs couches chauffantes telles que (1). A heating sheet according to the invention can comprise, as indicated above, several heating layers such as (1).
On peut, par exemple, prévoir dans un tapis chauffant pour fauteuil (voir figure 4) deux zones chauffantes distinctes, dont la souplesse permet d'épouser les formes du dossier et du siège. One can, for example, provide in a heating mat for an armchair (see Figure 4) two separate heating zones, the flexibility of which allows them to match the shapes of the backrest and seat.
