Abstract
A double glazed window having a solar heat pump assembly positioned between the two panes of glass. The heat pump assembly comprises a header tanks 9, 10 that are connected by thermal absorption pipes 11, and insulation panes 16 (22,21 fig 2). Fluid is pumped into the header tank 10 via an inlet pipe 13 and passes through the absorption pipes 11 to a header tank 9 prior to leaving the window via the outlet pipe 12. When the fluid is in the absorption pipes 11, the fluid absorbs radiation energy from the sun or other source. The energy absorbed by the fluid is extracted/stored by external systems. The fluid may be circulated by an external pump or by the actions of thermosyphon. Insulation panes cover the outside edge of the heat pump assembly. The window panes by be transparent or translucent. Preferably the thermal absorption pipes 11 are of sufficient mechanical strength to provide security to the window.
Description
Heat Pump Window Pane
Description of Invention
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a Heat Pump Window Pane which is internal to the window frame. The Heat Pump Window Pane allows energy to be taken from the cavity in the glazing by way of the greenhouse effect, this energy is then taken and released or stored. The device works in such a way that not only does it extract redundant energy from the window cavity, but it acts as a security device.
Statements of Invention
Accordingly, the present invention, the Heat Pump Window Pane is directed, but not solely to a Window Pane. Said Heat Pump Window Pane assembly consisting of a Heat Pump Sub-assembly, said Heat Pump Sub-assembly consists of a Flow In Header Tank, a Flow Out Header Tank, a Flow In Pipe, a Flow Out Pipe, and a series of Thermal Absorption Pipes. Said Flow In Pipe connects to said Flow In Header Tank, connected to said Flow In Header Tank is one end of said Thermal Absorption Pipes, connected to the other end of said Thermal Absorption Pipes is said Flow Out Header Tank. Said Flow Out Header Tank is connected to a Flow Out Pipe. Pane Insulation, Flow In Header Tank Insulation and Flow Out Header Tank Insulation circumferentially surround said Heat Pump Window Pane. Heat Pump Window Pane Fluid is pumped through said Heat Pump Sub-assembly by an external pump. The atmosphere surrounding said Heat Pump Sub-assembly is contained by an Internal Glass Pane and an External Glass Pane. Radiation from the sun (or other source) is absorbed by said Thermal Absorption Pipes, transferring Energy into said Heat Pump Window Pane Fluid, this energy is then extracted / stored by systems outside of said Heat Pump Window Pane. Said Thermal Absorption Pipes are of sufficient mechanical strength that they provided increased security.
