Abstract
The heating system comprises a plurality of groups G1-GN of one or more radiating panels 2. Each panel includes a slab of material 3, preferably ceramic, and a resistive heating element 4. Each of the groups is connected in parallel with an electricity supply line 5 and is controlled by a respective electronic switch T, preferably a TRIAC, which selectively couples the group to the supply line. An electronic control unit (ECU) is arranged to control the switches so as to couple one or more of the plurality of groups to the supply line for a period of time sufficient to bring the panels to a predetermined temperature and subsequently couple one or more of the plurality of groups to the supply line when a temperature measured by a temperature sensor 7 associated with the group falls below a predetermined threshold. A visual signalling device 8 such as coloured LEDs may be used to indicate to a user which groups are coupled to the supply line. Each panel may include hooks (18, figure 2) or other attachment means to attach the panel to a wall.
Description
A hating system with radiating nanels The present invention relates to a heating system with radiating panels, in particular for the heating of surroundings.
An aim or the present invention is to propose an innovative and improved heating system with radiating panels, which is easy and economic to lay, and which operates reliably and safely, and which is distinguished by good energy efficiency.
This and other objectives are achieved according to the invention with a heating system comprising: a plurality of groups of radiating panels comprising each at least one radiating panel, each panel including a slab of a ceramic, or vitreous material, or the like, to one face CSJ ofwhich thcrc is applied a resistive heating element; an electric supply line, to which said groups of radiating panels are connected in 0') panllel a plurality of controllable electronic switches, connected each essentially in series CO with one group of radiating panels, to selectively control the coupling thereof to said supply line, electric temperature sensors, associated each with a corresponding group of radiating panels, and an electronic control unit having a plurality of outputs connected with said elcctronic switches and a plurality of inputs connected with said electric temperature sensors, and predisposed for: -causing, each time it receives a control signal fbr the activation of the system, the coupling of said groups of radiating panels with the clcctric supply linc fbr a period of time sufficient to bring said panels to a temperature which is equal to or greater than a prefixed value; and -subsequently causing the coupling of each group of panels with the supply line when the temperature indicated by the associated sensor falls below a predetermined threshold.
Conveniently, the system further comprises optical signaling means driven by the control unit for providing a visual signal of the condition of coupling or uncoupling of each group of radiating panels with the electric supply line.
In one presently preferred embodiment, each radiating panel comprises a quadrangular slab of ceramic or similar material, in particular porcelanized stoneware, with a thickness or about 3-10 mm and sides having a length of between 35 and 70 cm or longer.
Furthermore, conveniently each radiating panel is preferably provided with means for attachment to a wall.
Other features and advantages of the invention will become clear from the following detailed description which is given purely by way of non-limiting example and with reference to the appended drawings in which: Figure 1 is an electrical diagram, partly a block diagram, of a heating system with 0') radiating pancis according to the present invention; Figure 2 is a partly exploded perspective view of a radiating panel included in a CO heating system according to the invention; and Figures 3 and 4 are part cross-section views, which show two further variants of hooking of radiating panels for heating systems according to the invention.
In Figure 1, the label 1 indicates as a whole a heating system with radiating panels according to the present invention.
Such a system comprises a plurality of groups Gl GN of radiating panels indicated by the label 2.
The N groups of radiating panels each comprise at least one radiating panel 2.
As will become clearer hereinafter, each radiating panel 2 comprises a slab 3 of ceramic material, for example porcelanized stoneware, to one face of which there is applied a resistive heating element 4, which in Figure 1 is represented by the graphical symbol of an electrical resistance.
The heating system 1 also comprises an electric supply]ine, indicated in its entirety by the label 5, to which the abovementioned groups Gl, .., GN of radiating panels 2 are connected in parallel.
Thcrc is further connected to the supply linc 5 a powcr supply device 6, of a type known per se, able to supply at its output a DC voltage V, preferably stabilized, intended to be supplied to various devices and components of the system.
In series with the radiating panels 2 of each group Gi GN, there is connected a respective controlled electronic switch T, for example a triac.
(\J The control electrodes (gates) of the electronic switches T can be driven, during operation, by corresponding outputs of an electronic control unit ECU, preferably through respective 0') piiotocouplcr devices FC, of a type known per se.
CO The electronic unit ECU is produced, for example, with the use of a programmable processor.
By means of the electronic switches T, the control unit ECU is, during operating, capable of selectively controlling the coupling of the groups Gi, GN of panels 2 to the electric supply line 5.
With each group 01 GN of radiating panels 2, there is associated at least one respective electric temperature sensor, indicated by the label 7 in Figure I, connected to a corresponding input of the control unit ECU.
The electronic control unit ECU is arranged to: -cause, each time it receives, at one of its inputs IN, a control signal for the activation of thc system, the coupling of a certain number of groups 01,.., ON of radiating panels 2 with the electric supply line 5 for a period of time (for example 2 seconds, approximately) sufficient to bring these radiating panels to a temperature which is equal to or greater than a prefixed value (for example, 75°C), and -hence cause, subsequently, the coupling of these groups 01 GN of radiating panels with the supply line 5, when the temperature indicated by the associated sensor 7 falls below a predetermined threshold (for the example 60°C, approximately).
The number of groups of panels activated can be sct manually by the user, or it can be determined independently by the control unit ECU based on environmental conditions at the time and/or on the thermal conditions requested by the user. To this end, if necessary there can be provided a selector that can be operated by the user, to choose between the manual setting option or the automatic setting option.
Optical signaling devices are also connected to the electronic control unit ECU, and indicated as a whole by the label 8 in Figure 1, and by means of which it is possible to r provide the user a visual signal of the condition of coupling/uncoupling of each group G 1, 0') ..., GN of radiating panels with the electric supply line 5.
CO In the example embodiment illustrated, the optical signaling devices comprise N pairs of light-emitting diodes connected in the manner illustrated in Figure 1. Each pair comprises for example a green Light-emitting diode V and a red light-emitting diode R. These diodes, connected for example with common cathode connected to a terminal of the ECU unit, can be driven by means of two transistors TRI and TR2, respectively, the bases of which are connected to corresponding inputs of the ECU unit.
The ECU unit can be conveniently arranged to activate, in a continuous manner, the diodes R with red light corresponding to the groups of radiating panels 2 whose temperature is rising towards the operating temperature range. As soon as these radiating panels 2 have reached the operating temperature range, the ECU unit deactivates the red-light diodes R and activates the corresponding green-light diodes V in a continuous manner.
Figure 2 illustrates by way of example the structure of a radiatiig panel 2 that can be used in a heating system according to the invention.
In such an embodiment, the radiating panel 2 comprises a slab 3 of ceramic material or similar, for example porcelanized stoneware, or vitreous material, having for example a thickness of about 3-10 mm, and sides having for example a length of between 35 and cm (or different values), and preferably 40 cm by 60 cm. Such quadrangular slabs arc readily available commercially, typically being manufactured for the production of flooring, wall coverings, etc. To the rear face of thc slab 3 there is applicd for example a resistivc element of carbon fibers that are woven or in net form, having a resistivity per unit of surface area of between 0.12 and 0.15 ohms per cm2, for example. In the embodiment illustrated, electrically conductive straps 9 are applied on two sides of the resistive element, to which straps there can be connected, for example by means of welding, respective electrical connection terminals 10.
r In the embodiment according to Figure 2, the radiating panel 2 also comprises a rear 0') substrate slab 11, of electrically insulating material, for example an aluminum panel with a honeycomb structure included between two "skins" of (for example) glass fiber reinforced CO polyester. This substrate slab has a thickness of for example 5 mm.
Thc resistive heating clement 4 is placed betwccn the slab of ceramic or similar material 3 and the rear substrate slab 11. The sandwich thus produced can be secured by means of adhesives or other mechanical interconnection devices, of types known per se.
To the rear face of the substrate slab 11, tubular box-like elements 12 (Figure 2) can be conveniently fixed, arranged preferably in vertical-axis position, for the induction of convectional motions of environmental air. These tubular elements 12 can bc made of aluminum, for example, with rectangular or square cross-section, or with open cross-section, for example U-or C-shaped, and can be fixed to the panel 2 for example by bonding to the substrate slab 11.
In the embodiment according to Figure 2, to the rear face of the substrate slab 11, two further profiled members 13 are also firmly connected, having a substantially square C-like cross-section. The open side of the cross-section of the profiled members 13 is turned away from the side opposite the ceramic slab 3, with regard to the snbstrate slab 11.
In the embodiment according to Figure 2, the radiating panel 2 is provided with means for connection to a wall which comprise two attachment plates 16, preferably (but not necessarily) identical to one another, fixed to the rear face of the panel 2. A pair ofsiniilar plates 17 is intended to be fixed to the wall.
The attachment plates 16 exhibit respective hook-like formations 18, in the form of fins that are parallel and staggered with respect to the general layout of the respective panels.
The attachment plates 16 connected to the radiating panel 2 have the hook-like formations 1 8 oriented downwards, while the attachment plates 1 7 are intended to be connected to a wall with their hook-like formations 19 oriented upwards. r
0') The arrangement is such that the radiating panel 2 can be hung in a stable manner on a wall by the engagement of the hook-like formations 18 of its attachment plates 16 with the CO corresponding hook-like formations 19 of the wall-fixed attachment plates 17.
In one embodiment that is not illustrated in the drawings, there can be connected to the panel 2 a single attachment element 16, provided with one or more hook-like formations 18, and intended to be coupled with a corresponding attachment element 17 fixed to a wall and correspondingly provided with one or more hook-like formations 19.
Figures 3 and 4 show two further variant embodiments of radiating panels for use in a heating system according to the invention. In these variants, each radiating panel 2 is at least partially framed with a profiled member 20 having a cross-section which is substantially C-shaped, to which there is fixed an attachment profiled member 21 which in the variant according to Figure 3 has a substantially Z-shaped cross-section, while in the variant according to Figure 4 it has a substantially L-like shape.
The profiled members 20 and 21 can be interconnected with one another in a manner known per se, for example by means of bonding, welding or mechanical connections of various kinds.
In the variants of Figures 3 and 4, the panel 2 can be fixed to a wall P in such a way that the panel 2 is, in operation, spaced apart from it.
As an ahernative, the panel 2 can be framed with a single monolithic profiled member, having a transverse profile portion which is substantially U-or C-shaped, to which there is joined a profile portion which its substantially L-shaped, with an overall configuration that is similar to that formed by the individual profiled members 20 and 21 of Figures 3 and 4.
As well as the heating of surroundings, a system according to the invention can be used to heat fluids, for example in boilers and the like, or in air-conditioning plants. (4
Naturally, the principle of the invention remaining the same, the forms of embodiment and 0') details of construction may be varied widely with iespect to that which has been described and illustrated purely by way of non-limiting example, without thereby departing from the 00 scope of invention, which scope is defined in the appended claims.
