TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a foamed polystyrene split hot water mat made of expanded polystyrene having a high heat-insulating effect. More specifically, the hot water mat is formed by an assembly plate that can be divided into small partition plates, and a plurality of the assembly plates are formed. Continuous or, if necessary, this assembly plate is divided into small division plates, and the divided division plates are freely combined with the above-mentioned assembly plate, so that the floor on which the hot water mat is laid can be cleaned without gaps. The present invention relates to a split hot water mat that can be laid efficiently.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, with the westernization of lifestyles, floor structures such as condominiums and houses have often adopted a structure in which a floor finishing material is laminated on the upper surface of a floor member. Furthermore, when adopting this floor structure, there has been a growing demand to arrange a hot water pipe for floor heating inside the floor structure, and in order to meet this demand, a hot water mat with a hot water pipe has appeared, This has been laid between the floor member and the floor finishing material.
[0003]
Here, as a procedure for laying the hot water mat between the floor member and the floor finishing material, there are several types of hot water mats determined from the area of the floor surface to be laid such as an apartment or a house, and the planar shape. The warm water mat was laid at the intended location by appropriately combining the warm water mats prepared according to the actual floor of the site.
In some cases, the hot water mat is manufactured as a single large-sized mat, but in this case, the above object has been achieved by laying one hot water mat on the floor to be laid.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
As described above, several types of hot water mats of different sizes are prepared in advance, and when combining the hot water mats according to the floor to be laid, several types of hot water mats are prepared for each floor shape. This means that the hot water mat laying company has a stock of hot water mats of all sizes regardless of the frequency of use, which requires a large storage cost and a large storage space. Had become.
[0005]
Also, when a plurality of different sizes of hot water mats are combined and the hot water mats are laid on the floor, the hot water flows into the hot water pipes stored in the pipe grooves of each hot water mat. It was necessary to calculate the flow rate and temperature of the hot water by a complicated formula by an expert and to adjust the flow rate of the hot water so that the hot water temperature, the heat radiation amount, and the temperature distribution circulating in the inside became uniform.
[0006]
On the other hand, if a single hot water mat is used instead of preparing a plurality of hot water mats, there is a problem that the size and planar shape of the floor to be laid cannot be freely designed.
[0007]
In addition, when the hot water pipe is stored in a pipe groove formed in each hot water mat according to the shape, the stored hot water pipe easily escapes from the pipe groove.
The present invention aims to provide a split type hot water mat which can solve all the above problems.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to a first aspect of the present invention, a hot water mat made of expanded polystyrene is formed in a flat rectangular plate-like body, and the hot water mat is formed by an assembly plate that can be divided into small partition plates. A split hot water mat characterized by forming a pipe groove for storing a hot water pipe.
[0009]
According to the present invention, the hot water mat formed by the collecting plate can be freely divided, and the hot water mat can be divided into a half-sized partition plate or a quarter-sized plate. It is possible to appropriately divide it into partition plates or the like.
[0010]
Therefore, even if there are overhangs such as pillars in the periphery of the floor according to the plane shape and area of the floor, the hot water mat consisting of the collecting plate is arbitrarily divided into partitioning plates, and several sets are assembled. When a plate and several partition plates are arbitrarily combined and laid, a warm water mat can be laid cleanly and efficiently without any gaps on the floor to be laid. As a result, the company that handles hot water mats only needs to keep stock of hot water mats consisting of one type of collective plate, eliminating the need to store and manage many types of hot water mats of different sizes. Storage space can be saved, and inventory and storage costs can be reduced.
[0011]
In addition, even if the floor surface on which the hot water mat is laid is not a clean square, but a pillar etc. is an uneven flat shape that protrudes in the middle, it is possible to apply a partition plate that is perfect for that part on the uneven part, This makes it possible to lay the hot water mat cleanly and efficiently without any gaps on the floor surface.
[0012]

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the pipe groove formed on the surface of the collecting plate is formed in a substantially U-shape on the plane of the entire collecting plate, and each partition plate has a straight pipe groove or an arc pipe groove. The split hot water mat according to claim 1, wherein any one of the mats is cut.
[0014]
According to the second and third aspects of the invention, the object described in the first aspect can be more reliably achieved.
That is, in addition to being able to be used as a U-shaped pipe groove when the hot water mat assembly plate is not divided, the assembly plate is divided into division plates along the division line, and each division plate is arbitrarily selected. By combining them, a semi-circular pipe groove, a quarter-arc pipe groove, a quarter-arc and straight-line combined pipe groove, and a pipe groove of only the straight-line part are available in variety. It can be used as a rich warm water mat.
[0015]
As a result, by combining the divided partition plates so that the pipe grooves cut in each partition plate are continuous, a U-shaped pipe groove, an S-shaped pipe groove, an arc-shaped pipe groove, and a straight line are formed. The mold pipe groove can be freely formed, and the hot water pipe can be freely laid on the target floor surface.
Therefore, when laying the hot water mat on the floor surface, a special design is not required, and the designer can design a floor surface having an arbitrary planar shape without being limited to the planar shape of the hot water mat.
[0016]
Also, by dividing the hot water mat into partition plates and combining them so that the pipe grooves are continuous, it becomes possible to flow the hot water over the entire floor surface with one pipe. Therefore, it is easy to calculate and adjust the flow rate of the hot water so that the heat radiation amount and the temperature distribution over the entire floor surface are uniform, and the efficiency of the laying work is improved.
[0017]
The invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that a holding member for stably holding the hot water pipe housed in the pipe groove is attached near an edge of the pipe groove. It is a split hot water mat according to any of the above.
[0018]
By attaching the holding member to the vicinity of the edge of the pipe groove as in the invention of claim 4, the hot water pipe once stored in the pipe groove can stably hold its stored state, and inadvertent escape. Can be prevented.
[0019]
