Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathroom heater / dryer capable of heating or drying a bathroom or a dressing room (hereinafter, referred to as a bathroom) by blowing in four directions.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The temperature of a bathroom in a general house is not so different from the outside temperature when no one has taken a bath yet. A sudden change in temperature at the time can cause a large heat shock, causing a rapid change in blood pressure and death.

On the other hand, in recent years, due to changes in housing conditions, it may not be possible to adequately ventilate a bathroom or the like, and mold is easily generated on walls and ceilings of the bathroom or the like, and means for drying the bathroom or the like is desired. ing.

Further, it is often difficult to secure a clothesline for drying laundry due to changes in housing conditions, and it has been proposed to use a bathroom or the like as a clothesline.

In response to such a request, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-6
A bathroom heater / dryer as disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 6199 is proposed.

The bathroom heater / dryer 10 according to the above publication is
As shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, the heat exchanger 12 in which the hot water from the heat source unit 11 circulates, the cross flow fan 13 in which the air in the bathroom and the like is circulated through the heat exchanger 12, and the air in the bathroom and the like are ventilated. And a power supply block 18 for supplying power to the ventilation fan 14, the cross flow fan 13, and the ventilation fan 14.

The bathroom heater / dryer 10 is installed in an opening provided in the ceiling of a bathroom or the like, and has a configuration in which a hot water pipe 16 and an exhaust duct 15 are connected behind the ceiling.

The installation and maintenance of the bathroom heater / dryer 10, the hot water pipe 16, the exhaust duct 15 and the like are performed by reaching the ceiling through an inspection port 17 provided adjacent to the opening, and sometimes the ceiling. It is supposed to be entered.

[0009] In addition to a bathroom or the like, a general room includes a ceiling formed by a decorative panel supported by a ridge or the like, and a ceiling provided on the ceiling (eg, a second floor). The space between them constitutes the space above the ceiling. Therefore, in this specification, the ceiling pasted with a decorative board is referred to as a bathroom ceiling or the like, and the ceiling above the ceiling is referred to as a main ceiling.

[0010]

However, in the bathroom heater / dryer 10 according to the above configuration, since the hot air is blown out by the cross flow fan 13, the blowout direction is one-way blowout and a large temperature is blown into the bathroom or the like. There was a problem of distribution.

FIG. 20 shows the result of simulating the temperature distribution in the bathroom in the case of the one-way blowing. As can be seen from the figure, when the main space, such as a bathroom, is set at around body temperature (36 ° C), the temperature near the outlet increases by 4%.
Must be at least 0 degrees.

Although this can prevent a heat shock caused by a low bathroom temperature, there is a danger that the heat shock caused by a high temperature may cause the bathroom to overheat and fall.

Further, since the hot air does not hit the wall of the bathroom or the like, there is a problem that the bather touches the wall of the bathroom or the like and feels cold or the drying efficiency is deteriorated when drying the bathroom or the like. is there.

In addition, bathrooms and the like of houses recently constructed are
There are many standard dimensions (for example, 1 tsubo type), and decorative boards used for bathroom ceilings and the like also have many standard dimensions. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to provide the bathroom heater / dryer 10 and the inspection port 17 at an optimum place.

That is, a bathroom or the like is provided not only with a bathtub, but also with a door and a window, and the temperature distribution is determined depending on the bathtub. It is necessary to provide an optimal position in consideration of the position, size, etc.

Since it is necessary to perform the determination of such an optimum position while assuming the actual temperature distribution, an operator having such knowledge and experience is indispensable for the installation work, and the workability is reduced. There is a problem that this causes the construction cost to increase.

Even if the optimum position is determined, if the optimum position is not the corner of the ceiling of the bathroom or the position of the seam (meji) of the decorative board, the shape becomes unsightly (the design is deteriorated). , There is a problem that it is necessary to select whether to take the optimal position or the appearance.

Further, the air in the bathroom or the like is forcedly circulated through the bathroom heater / dryer by the cross-flow fan 13, but at this time, there is a problem that a large noise is generated by the flowing air.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a bathroom heater / dryer capable of efficiently heating and drying a bathroom or the like by enabling a four-way blowout and reducing noise.

[0020]

Means for Solving the Problems To solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 is provided along three inner side walls of a main body case to exchange heat between hot water from a heat source unit and air. A heat exchanger that circulates air from a bathroom or a dressing room through a heat exchanger and blows air from first to fourth outlets provided near four sides, and a heat exchanger. And a fixing member for supporting the corner portion of the heat exchanger, fixing the heat exchanger to the main body case, and suppressing a turbulent flow of air generated in the corner portion of the heat exchanger.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the fixing member has a rib erected toward the circulation device to increase the strength of the fixing member and to suppress turbulent air flow generated at the corner. It is characterized by.

FIG. 5 is a side view of a bathroom heater / dryer installed on a ceiling of a bathroom.

The bathroom heater / dryer 100 is a body 101 for exchanging air in a bathroom or the like with hot water to heat and ventilate the bathroom or the like, and a grill 102 installed on the front surface (the side of the bathroom or the like) of the body 101. , And an installation device 103 for installing the main body 101 on the ceiling.

The installation device 103 includes a ridge fixing device 105 fixed to a ridge 104 or the like, and a main body 10 attached to the ridge fixing device 105.
1 and a hanging member 10 for fixing the main body 101
6 and the like.

As shown in FIG. 6, the edge fixing device 105 has a rectangular angle, and a female screw 107 is fixed to each corner, and a plurality of through holes 109 are provided in the side plate 108. It is configured to be screwed to.

The suspension member 106 comprises a bolt 110 and a washer 111 as shown in FIG. The bolt 110 has a front end thread portion 112 formed at the front end and a rear end thread portion 113 formed at the rear end. The diameter of the intermediate region 114 is the same as that of the front end thread portion 112 and the rear end thread portion 113. It is smaller than the diameter of the valley.

On the other hand, the washer 111 has a cut 116 formed up to the center hole 115. The dimension D1 of the central hole 115 is appropriately larger than the diameter D2 of the intermediate region 114 of the bolt 110, and the diameter D3 formed by the head of the bolt 110
It is smaller as appropriate.

As shown in FIG. 8, the grill 102 is provided with first to fourth louvers 244 to 247 around four sides so as to open and close the first to fourth outlets 240 to 243. The blowing direction of the warm air is set by the fourth louvers 244 to 247.

On the other hand, at one end of the intake panel 117, a generally "T" -shaped hinge claw 120 having a head formed wider than the leg is projected, and an open / close button 121 is provided at the opposite end.
Is provided. Further, filter support claws (not shown) are provided at opposite ends of the back surface (on the main body 101 side) of the intake panel 117 so that the filter can be attached and detached.

FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing the internal structure of the main body 101. The main body 101 draws in air from a bathroom or the like, turns it into warm air, and then sends it again to the bathroom or the like. The warm air from the portion 128 is supplied to the four first to fourth outlets 24.
The main body case 1 includes a ventilation unit 161 for guiding the air to the chambers 0 to 243, a ventilation unit 130 for ventilating the air and the like in the bathroom, a heating unit 128, and a control unit 131 for driving and controlling the ventilation unit 130.
32.

The inside of the main body case 132 contains the partition plate 13.
The heating room and the ventilation unit 1 in which the heating unit 128 and the like are stored by 3
The control room 30 is divided into a control room in which the control unit 30 and the control unit 131 are housed, so that at least the control room does not enter high humidity air such as a bathroom.

As shown in FIG. 10, the heating unit 128
The heat exchanger 138 is formed in a substantially “U” shape having sides and exchanges heat with the hot water circulated from the heat source unit 136 through the hot water pipe 137 through the hot water pipe 137. It is composed of a circulation blower 139 that discharges and circulates through the heat exchanger 138.

The heat exchanger 138 is provided along the side wall of the main body case 132 and is fixed to the main body case 132 by a fixing member 141 via a heat exchanger seal member 140. The water supply / drainage section 230 of the heat exchanger 138 extends to the control room side and is fixed to the side wall of the main body case 132.

The heat exchanger 138 and the main body case 132
And a buffer space 147 for the hot air from the heat exchanger 138 is formed. The buffer space 147 passes through the first to fourth air outlets 240 to 243 from the buffer space 147. The wind is blown out to a bathroom or the like.

Therefore, the warm air from the heat exchanger 138 flows through the buffer space 147, and then
Since the air is blown out from the first to fourth air outlets 240 to 243 smaller than 7, the buffer space 147 functions as a silencer, and noise due to air blowing can be reduced.

The fixing member 141 is provided with a heat exchanger 138.
Heat exchanger corner 14 on the side of the circulation blower 139
8, the upper end portion is bent as shown in FIG. 11 to form a contact portion 142 that contacts the heat exchanger 138 via the heat exchanger sealing member 140, and the lower end portion is formed. Fixed part 143 fixed to main body case 132 by a screw
Are formed.

Further, the end of the main pillar portion of the fixing member 141 is bent at a predetermined angle to form a rib 150, thereby increasing the strength of the fixing member 141 and reducing noise by the following operation. It is planned.

That is, the air discharged from the circulation blower 139 is blown out in a direction depending on the angle of the impeller (described later), and thus has a component that rotates in the heating chamber. For example, in FIG. 9, air rotates clockwise. For this reason, turbulence is likely to occur in the heat exchanger corner 148 minutes, and noise increases.

Such a turbulent flow cannot be prevented from being physically generated because the circulation blower 139 has a circular shape and the heat exchanger 138 has a rectangular shape, so that noise due to the turbulent flow is eliminated. It is not possible.

However, if this turbulence is made into a plurality of small turbulences, the overall noise can be reduced. That is, since small turbulence has small energy, noise due to individual turbulence is reduced. Since the phases of the noise frequencies due to the plurality of turbulences do not usually coincide with each other, components that cancel each other out are generated, so that the noise can be suppressed as a whole.

Therefore, the fixing member 141 has a heat exchanger corner 148 on the circulation blower 139 side where a large turbulent flow is generated.
And a rib 150 is provided on the main pillar portion of the circulation blower 13.
It stands in the direction of 9 and suppresses the generation of large turbulence to reduce noise.

Needless to say, the noise reduction effect varies depending on the shape (extension length, angle, etc.) of the rib 150, the wind speed of the circulation blower 139, and the like.

On the other hand, the circulation blower 139 includes a centrifugal fan 151 around which a plurality of emperors are provided, a circulation motor 152 for rotating the centrifugal fan 151, and a cooling motor for cooling the circulation motor 152. The circulation motor cover 154 is provided at the head and bottom of the circulation motor 152 so that the circulation motor cover 154 can be engaged with the body case 132. By circulation motor 1
52 is constituted by a circulation motor support member 155 and the like for supporting the elastic member 52 with elastic force.

When the centrifugal fan 151 rotates, air from a bathroom or the like is sucked in from the central portion of the centrifugal fan 151 and is discharged to the outer periphery of the fan. At this time, since the discharge direction has no directivity, the air is discharged isotropically.

However, when air is also discharged to the control room side where the heat exchanger 138 is not provided, the air hits the partition plate 133 and changes the flow path to flow into the heat exchanger 138. For this reason, wind noise when the air strikes the partition plate 133 and noise due to turbulence generated when the flow path is changed become noise.

Therefore, in the present invention, the centrifugal fan 151
The shape of the partition plate 133 at the portion opposed to the centrifugal fan 151 is formed in an arc shape in accordance with the curvature of the centrifugal fan 151, and is arranged so as to partially surround the centrifugal fan 151. As a result, the air is not blown out from the portion to reduce noise, and the dead space of the heating chamber is reduced.

The bathroom heater / dryer 10 according to the present invention.
Since the size of 0 is set in accordance with the building standards such as bathrooms, it is contrary to this purpose to make it smaller than necessary. Therefore, the dead space of the heating chamber omitted by the partition plate 133 is not directly reflected in the miniaturization of the apparatus, but is used to secure the space around the control unit 131.

The peripheral space functions as a cooling space for the control unit 131, so that efficient cooling is possible.
Since the work space is used for maintenance and inspection, the work efficiency can be improved.

When the circulating motor 152 is mounted, the circulating motor support member 155 is attached to the head and bottom of the circulating motor 152, and the engaging claws 156 of the circulating motor cover 154 are inserted into the insertion holes 159 to rotate. Let it.

As a result, the engagement pawl 156 is inserted into the insertion hole 159.
Circulating motor cover 154 and main body case 13
2 can be temporarily fixed. The circulation motor cover 1
In the temporary fixing state of 54, the positions of the through hole 157 and the screw hole match.

Then, a screw is inserted from the through hole 157 and the circulation motor cover 154 is screwed to the main body case 132. At this time, since the circulation motor cover 154 is temporarily fixed, the operator can use both hands, can use a screwdriver while holding down the screw, and drop the circulation motor cover 154 and the circulation motor 152 during screwing. It is designed not to end up. Of course, the same effect can be obtained during maintenance and inspection.

As shown in FIGS. 12 to 15, the baffle 161 has a heating chamber cover 12 provided with first to third blowing windows 162 to 164 and provided so as to cover the heating chamber.
6, a fourth outlet window 165 is provided so as to coincide with the fourth outlet 243, and the control room cover 127 covers the control room. The fourth outlet window 165 does not communicate with the heating room and the control room. And a hot air guide 166 that communicates with the heating chamber.

FIG. 12 is a top view of the heating chamber cover 126, FIG. 13 is a side view when viewed from an arrow C in FIG. 12, and FIG. 14 is a partial side view when viewed from an arrow E in FIG. 15 is a perspective view including the control room cover 127. FIG.

The central portion of the heating chamber cover 126 is opened at a smaller size than the circulation blower 139 for intake so as to form a passage for the air taken into the circulation blower 139, and to the peripheral portions in the three directions. When provided and assembled, the first to third blowout windows 162 to 164 whose positions coincide with the first to third blowout ports 240, 241, and 242 provided in the grill 102, and the heat exchanger sealing material 140 And the heating chamber is connected to the circulation blower 139 and the buffer space 147.
It has a partition rib 169 partitioning from the side, a distribution rib 171 formed of a mountain-like projection provided at a corner of the buffer space 147, and the like.

The air blown from the circulation blower 139 is divided into right and left at the corner of the buffer space 147 and is blown out from the adjacent outlet. At this time, turbulence is likely to be generated at the corner. Therefore, the distribution rib 171 divides the air blown out from the heat exchanger 138 smoothly to prevent turbulence at the corner, thereby reducing noise.

As shown in FIG. 15, a fourth outlet window 165 is provided in the control room cover 127 so as to be in the same position as the fourth outlet 243, and air taken into a ventilation blower 173 to be described later is provided. Ventilation passage 174 and ventilation inlet 175 are formed.
A hot air guide 166 is fixed to the back surface of 7.

The hot air guide 166 is a box having one side wall opened to form a hot air inlet 176 and an upper surface opened, and the control room cover 1 in which the fourth blowout window 165 is located.
The hot air introduced from the hot air inlet 176 is blown out of the fourth outlet 243 through the opening on the upper surface, which is fixed to the back surface of the heater 27.
