Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hot water heating panel for heating a floor or a wall by passing a heat medium such as hot water through an internal hot water pipe.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, floor heating is a heating method in which a radiating panel is installed below a floor finishing material such as a floor finishing material or a carpet, and a room is heated by radiant heat from the heat radiating panel. As there is no dust in the room due to airflow as in the case above, hygiene is high, and since there is no high-temperature heat source such as a stove in the room, it can be used without worrying about accidents such as burns even at home with infants is there.

[0003] The type of floor heating is roughly classified into a hot water type and an electric type. Hot water floor heating installs hot water piping in the panel,
The panel is heated by flowing a heat medium such as hot water formed by a boiler or the like into the piping. On the other hand, in electric floor heating, a heating wire is arranged in a panel, and the panel is heated by resistance heat by energization. When comparing running costs, the electric type using a high electricity bill tends to be expensive, and the hot water type is lower in cost. However, in terms of construction, the hot water system has many restrictions, and one or more hot water heating panels are installed over almost the entire floor surface, pipes are connected, and floor finishing materials are further installed thereon. Finally, the floor is completed through a plurality of steps requiring skill. This difficulty in construction is a major factor that increases initial costs.

[0004] In hot water heating, the work of laying pipes for supplying hot water has become difficult. As can be understood from the consideration of floor heating, if piping is not provided on substantially the entire floor surface, the hot water as a heat source will not be sufficiently supplied, so that piping work must be performed separately. This was the biggest disadvantage of the electric type panelized product, and it was the cause of its widespread delay.
In other words, the conventionally used hot water type heating device has to be provided with pipes over the entire target surface, and thus has not been “paneled” like the electric type.

[0005] In particular, when looking at this hot water heating panel, in order to easily perform the installation without errors, the number of types of the hot water heating panel is reduced as much as possible, and the room can be used in a room of any size regardless of the area of the room. It is preferable to standardize and standardize the data. Further, it is preferable that the size and weight of each panel are not so large that even a small number of contractors can work. Furthermore, in order to minimize the work on the construction site to the minimum necessary, it is preferable that the prefab is prefabricated as much as possible. Therefore, assuming that the above requirements are satisfied, the present inventors, for example, construct a panel having a certain size and shape unitized like a tatami by simply spreading the panel from the end of the room in order. He conceived of a hot water heating panel in a form that he could do, and made intensive studies.

[0006] The inventors of the present invention have sought to make the hot water heating more effective.
As a result of various studies, the present invention has been completed.

[0007]

Pipe connection can be performed easily and in a short time. The flexible hot water pipe 23a from the storage section 22 and the pipe connector 1
In order to make the drawer easily drawable and not to disturb the packing, a drawer string is connected to the flexible hot water pipe 23a or the pipe connector 10, and the drawer string is adhered to the outside of the panel 20. It is good to stick it with a tape or the like.

The hot water heating panel 20 after connecting the piping
As shown in FIG. 4, the flexible hot water pipe 23a and the pipe connector 10 are stored in the respective storage sections 22 again to form an integrated hot water heating panel 20 with no gap, as shown in FIG. Connected to each other and installed on the joists as described above, the whole floor is integrated.

The storage section 22 must be formed on at least two end faces of the hot water heating panel 20 because it is necessary to secure an inlet and an outlet for hot water for heating. Depending on the situation, it is formed on all of the three end faces or the four end faces.

The connection between the end of each hot water pipe 23 and the hot water supply port on the side of the pipe connector 10 via the flexible hot water pipe 23a is performed at the time of packing or when the hot water heating panels 20 shown in FIG. This is because, in the state, each piping connector 10 is completely contained in the storage section 22. In addition, each hot water heating panel 2
In order to connect the hot water pipes 23 to the respective hot water pipes 23, it is necessary to first pull out the pipe fittings 10 from the storage section 22 as shown in FIG. The hot water supply port of the fixture 10 is a flexible hot water pipe 23.
It must be connected by a.

Accordingly, the hot water heating panel 2 of the first aspect is provided.
0 indicates that the heating of the floor and walls, etc. could be completely panelized as a case in which hot water was used. The heating surface as shown in FIGS. 1 and 6 can be simply configured.

Further, since the hot water heating panel 20 according to the first aspect can be a panel having a fixed area in which the hot water pipe 23 is built, not only its manufacture but also its storage and construction are very easy. It is possible to completely eliminate the need for serious piping work when configuring a heating device using hot water. In other words, as long as the hot water heating panel 20 can secure a device that can easily circulate and supply a heat medium such as hot water (already developed at the present stage),
If the hot water heating panel 20 is directly laid on the floor of an existing house and connected to the above-mentioned device, it can be very easily installed as a floor heating facility of the existing house.

If the floor finishing material 24 is arranged on the panel surface, the plurality of hot water heating panels 20 are connected to each other as shown in FIG. And by installing on a joist, it becomes the integrated hot-water heating panel 20 over the whole floor surface.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 5, since the floor finishing material 24 is already installed on the panel surface, the floor surface can be completed in this state, and the construction of the entire floor can be greatly simplified.

That is, the hot water heating panel 20 according to the second aspect can be used as it is as a floor panel, and has both a floor panel and a heating panel for floor heating. .

[0020]

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a hot water heating panel according to the present invention; FIG. The state of the room where the operation was performed is shown. The floor heating panel 20 provided in this room is formed by abutting a large number of the hot water heating panels 20 as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 with each other as shown in FIG.

FIGS. 2 to 6 show a hot water heating panel 20 according to the first and second aspects. Since this hot water heating panel 2 is assumed to be able to be easily constructed even by a construction worker with low skill and physical strength, a small area, light weight,
It should be portable and of a certain standardized size. In addition, when the area of the panel 20 is too small, the labor of construction increases. On the other hand, if it is too large, depending on the floor area, the panel 20 will be too large and will run off the floor. Therefore, the size of this panel 20 is 3 to 3 tatami mats.
It is preferably about a tatami mat, but is not particularly limited to this. In order to satisfy the lightness, the panel body is preferably made of a foam such as polypropylene or polystyrene, but is not particularly limited to this.

The hot water pipe 23 is piped along a groove previously installed on the surface of the panel body so as to be uniformly distributed on the entire surface of the panel 20. As a material of the hot water pipe 23, a metal pipe such as a copper pipe, or a resin pipe such as a cross-linked polyethylene pipe or a polybutene pipe is used. However, a resin pipe is more preferable from the requirement of flexibility described later.

The structure for interconnecting the hot water pipes 23 of the hot water heating panel 20 has a restriction that it must not protrude from any of the upper, lower, and side surfaces after construction. Therefore, in the present invention, a space called the storage portion 22 is provided on the side surface. In the storage part 22, unlike the other parts of the panel, the flexible hot water pipe 23a is not restricted and has a degree of freedom, and has a length and flexibility enough to be drawn out to the outside. . Then, a pipe connector 10 is connected to an end of the flexible hot water pipe 23a. Normally, the flexible hot water pipe 23a and the pipe connector 10 are all contained in the storage section 22.
And nothing protrudes outside the panel. However, when connecting the pipes of the panels that are in contact with each other at the time of panel construction, the pipe connector 10 is pulled out from the storage section 22 facing the end face of each panel, and the connectors are connected. After the connection, the connection tool and the flexible hot water pipe 2
By accommodating 3a in the accommodating portion 22 and abutting the panel end faces with each other, the connection of the pipe can be easily completed without forming any projecting portion or gap between the panels.

The pipe connector 10 used in the present invention
Has a compact thickness and size that can be stored in the storage section 22 of the hot water heating panel 20. As described above, the connector 10 has a structure that can be easily and simply connected with the pipe connector 10 facing the hot water heating panel 20 that is in contact with the pipe connector 10. Further, in order to always maintain a constant flow rate even when the pipe is clogged, a plurality of pipes may be used as the pipe connector 10 having a structure capable of being integrally connected. Further, the pipe connector 10 may have a structure having two flow paths so that the plurality of reciprocating hot water pipes 23 can be collectively connected together.

The housings 22 are provided on at least two different sides to connect a plurality of adjacent hot water heating panels 20. Here, each storage section 22 may be piped such that the inlet and outlet of the hot water are arranged in parallel at one place, or the storage section 22 at the inlet of the supply pipe and the storage section 22 at the outlet are arranged in different places. It may be a series pipe. If necessary, the storage portions 22 may be arranged on three sides or all four sides. In addition, in order to prevent construction errors and reduce costs, it is desirable that the types of panels are small, so that the storage unit 22 and the connection points are arranged at positions that are line-symmetric or point-symmetric with respect to the center of the panel. It is preferable that the panels 20 have the same shape.

Further, for the purpose of facilitating construction, a floor finishing material 24 is previously provided on the surface of the hot water heating panel 20 as described in claim 2. This eliminates the necessity of re-installing the floor finishing material 24 after the installation of the hot water heating panel 20, and completes a floor capable of floor heating by only one step of placing the hot water panel 20 on the joist. It becomes possible. As the floor finishing material 24, various materials such as various wood flooring materials, resin tiles, and carpet mats can be used.
