【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、外側面が冷気に晒される窓の内側面の曇り止め装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
窓ガラスの曇りを防止する方式として、電気暖房器具によって加熱した加熱空気を窓ガラスに吹き付ける方式(例えば、特許文献1)や、窓ガラスに形成した透明な薄膜を電気的に発熱させて窓ガラスを加熱する方式(例えば、特許文献2)がある。
【0003】
特許文献1の方式では、暖房器具とその加熱空気を窓ガラスへ誘導するダクト機構等が必要となり、装置が複雑化すると共に高価なものとなる。また、特許文献2の方式では、窓ガラスにスパッタリング法で製膜したり、電動薄膜を転写したり、薄膜を塗布したり等の方法で発熱膜を形成するため、この発熱膜を発熱させるための発信機や配線装置を含めて装置が複雑化する。
【0004】
従来、プレジャーボート等の小型船舶にあっては、外気温の低い状態では、操縦席を覆う船室の前方の窓は、外気と船室内の温度差によって、その内面側に空気中の水分が凝縮して曇りを生じる。また、外気が氷点下になるときには、この水分が凍結する場合もある。上記二つの方式とも、電力供給の安定した電源が必要であるが、プレジャーボート等の小型船舶において、電力供給の安定化を図るためには高価な設備が必要となるため、その操縦席の前方窓の曇り止め装置として上記の方式を適用することは好ましくない。また、上記二つの方式とも、取り外し式の曇り止め装置としては考慮されていない。
【0005】
小型船舶の窓ガラスの曇り止めには、小型船舶のエンジンを冷却した温水をラジエータへ流し、このラジエータで暖められた温風をファンで窓ガラスに吹き付けて曇りを取る方式があるが、この方式ではラジエータとファンが必要となるだけでなく、そのための温水配管が必要となり、またファンへ供給する電力用の電池が必要となり、電力消費上からも好ましくない。
【0006】
また、小型船舶の操縦席前方の窓の一部を電動機によって透明板を回転させる旋回窓と称する窓構造とし、この旋回窓によって航行時に衝突する雨を払い退ける所謂、ワイパーの作用をさせるものがある。この旋回窓の旋回によって曇りも解消できるが、この旋回窓を購入して完成した船舶の窓に取り付けるためには、その取り付けに必要な加工を船舶に施さねばならないので、実際はかなり困難であり、通常は船舶の製作時に取り付ける方法が採用される。更に、この旋回窓も電動機へ供給する電力用の電池が必要となり、電力消費上からも好ましくない。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、このような点に鑑みて、電源を必要としない、然も簡単に窓に取り付けて窓の曇り止めが達成でき、不要時には簡単に取り外しておくことができる装置を提供するものである。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本願発明の窓の曇り止め装置は、外側面が冷気に晒される窓の内側面に装着されるものであって、全周で前記窓の内側面に密着するパッキンと、このパッキンで囲まれた領域において前記窓の透視面と空間を存して対面する透視可能な窓面部分を有する曇り止め板を備え、前記パッキンは、前記窓の内側に面状に密着するよう外方へのびた可撓性シールヒレを有するものである。
【0010】
このため、可撓性シールヒレは外方へのびているため、例えばポンプ装置で前記空間の空気を吸引などしたとき周囲の空気圧を可撓性シールヒレの外面で受けることにより、可撓性シールヒレが小型船舶等の窓の内側面に強く密着する。このため、パッキンによる気密性が良好となり、窓に対する曇り止め装置の保持が確実となり、安全であると共に前記空間の負圧を長時間に亘り維持できることとなる。また、前記空間は断熱空間となるため、この窓面部分では曇りが防止でき、電力不要の装置を提供できる効果がある。このため、小型船舶の操縦席の窓に事前に取り付けておけば、小型船舶を運転する際には曇りなく運転ができ、航行上も安全である。
【0011】
また、本願発明の窓の曇り止め装置は、外側面が冷気に晒される窓の内側面に全周で密着するパッキンと、このパッキンで囲まれた領域において前記窓の透視面と空間を存して対面する透視可能な窓面部分を有する曇り止め板を備え、前記パッキンは、環状の内側シール突部と環状の外側シール突部とで前記窓との間に環状空間を形成し、前記窓に対する押し圧による前記環状空間の負圧によって前記窓に吸着可能としたことを特徴とする。
【0012】
このため、上記の効果に加えて、前記窓に対する押し圧によって環状空間の空気が追い出されて負圧となり、それによって前記窓に曇り止め装置が吸着するため、ポンプ装置によって空間の空気を吸引する機構を付加すれば、曇り止め装置が吸着保持されている間にそのポンプ装置の操作を開始できることとなり、曇り止め装置を窓に押さえつけるために他の人の手を借りずに、一人で曇り止め装置の窓への取り付けとポンプ装置の操作とができることとなり、作業も簡単になる。このため、ポンプ装置による前記空間の空気の吸引操作前の曇り止め装置の保持機構として有効である。
【0013】
また、本願発明の窓の曇り止め装置は、前記環状空間を複数の環状のシール突部によって内側と外側の二重に形成したことを特徴とする。このため、上記効果に加えて、ポンプ装置などを用いる吸引の前の窓に対する曇り止め装置の保持力を更にアップできるため、安定した保持が達成できる。
【0014】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に、本願発明の実施の形態について説明する。各図は本発明の窓の曇り止め装置の実施形態を示す。図1は窓の曇り止め装置の平面図、図2は窓の曇り止め装置を小型船舶の前面窓の内側に取り付けた斜視図、図3は窓ガラスの内側に窓の曇り止め装置を装着した状態を断面で示す説明図、図4は窓の曇り止め装置のポンプ装置を含む断面図、図5は窓の曇り止め装置とポンプ装置の取り付け状態を示す断面図、図6は窓の曇り止め装置のパッキンの断面端面図、図7は窓の曇り止め装置の他の実施形態に係るパッキンの断面端面図、図8は窓の曇り止め装置の更に他の実施形態に係るパッキンの断面端面図である。
【0015】
本発明は、窓ガラスに曇りが生じ、視界不良になることによって支障が生じるような窓に適用して、特に効果があるものである。このため、本発明が対象とする窓30は、外側面が冷気に晒される状態にある透視窓であり、例えば、プレジャーボート、小型客船、小型運搬船等のような小型船舶40の操縦席41の前方に設けられる前面窓30、又はその他のものの窓である。
【0016】
以下、小型船舶40を対象にして本発明の窓の曇り止め装置を説明する。小型船舶40において、操縦席41とその後方の船室42とを覆うブリッジ43を設けた前面窓30、即ち、操縦席41の前方に設けられる前面窓30の透視面31は、その外側面は外気に晒され、その内側面は操縦席41や船室42の空気温度に晒され、冬季などではその温度差によって透視面31の内側面に水分による曇りや露つき現象を生じる。本発明の窓の曇り止め装置1が取り付けられた部分ではこれを防止できる効果がある。
【0017】
窓30は、透視面31の周囲を枠32で囲った形態が一般的であり、その形状は四角形、多角形、丸型等、種々の形態がある。透視面31は、着色、無着色に係わらず、それを通して一方の側から他方側を透視できる資材で構成され、プラスチックスやガラスが採用される。操縦席41とその後方の船室42とを覆うブリッジ43を設けた小型船舶40の前面窓30、即ち、操縦席41の前方に設けられる前面窓30の透視面31は、表面の傷つきによる視界不良の問題や強度を考慮して、一般的には、傷のつき難い強化ガラスが採用される。
【0018】
本発明の窓の曇り止め装置1は、外側面が冷気に晒される窓30の内側面に装着されるものであって、全周で窓30の内側面に密着するパッキン2と、このパッキン2で囲まれた領域において窓30の透視面31と空間3を存して対面する透視可能な窓面部分4を有する曇り止め板10を備え、パッキン2は、窓30の内側に密着するよう外方へのびた可撓性シールヒレ50を有し、空間3の空気をポンプ装置5で吸引するようにしたものである。パッキン2は、合成樹脂製の合成ゴム又は天然ゴムのいずれでもよく、可撓性シールヒレ50は、図6乃至図8に点線で示すように、パッキン2の外側に向けて透視面31に面接触するように撓んで透視面31に密着する。また、パッキン2は、曇り止め板10の周縁部を挟み込む環状溝55の対向面には一対の環状シール突起56、56が形成され、この環状シール突起56、56と曇り止め板10の周縁部が密着して、パッキン2と曇り止め板10との気密が保たれる。
【0019】
曇り止め板10は、窓面部分4を透視可能な資材で形成しており、全体を透視可能な一つの資材で形成することもできる。即ち、窓面部分4とその周囲を取り囲んでパッキン2を取り付ける枠部分7とを透視可能な一つの資材で形成することもできる。これに対して、窓面部分4と、その周囲を取り囲んでパッキン2を取り付ける枠部分7とを別部材で構成することもできる。このため、曇り止め板10は、全体を透視可能な一つの資材で形成する場合は、透明性に優れたアクリル、ポリカーボネート等の合成樹脂を所定の形状に成形して形成される。また、窓面部分4とその周囲の枠部分7とを別個に形成して気密に組み合わせる場合には、窓面部分4を透明性の強化ガラスや、透明性に優れたアクリル、ポリカーボネート等の合成樹脂で形成し、枠部分7を木材、金属、合成樹脂等によって形成することができる。
【0020】
また、曇り止め板10は、空間3に連通した吸引口6を備える。この吸引口6に連通してポンプ装置5の取り付けを行う吸引パイプ60が、曇り止め板10の外側面に接着剤によって接着されている。吸引パイプ60は視界の邪魔にならないように透明合成樹脂で形成され、曇り止め板10と吸引パイプ60は透明板であるため、この接着剤に含まれる気泡や接着面が外部から透視されてデザイン的な不具合に見えるため、これを解消するために吸引パイプ60の平坦な端面が曇り止め板10の外側面に平面で接着される構成を採っている。
【0021】
窓面部分4は、これを通した視界の良好性を保つために、全体が均一な平板状をなすように枠部分7から窪んだ状態に形成され、窓30にセットしたとき、パッキン2で囲まれた領域において窓30の平坦な透視面31との間に略均一な空間3が形成される。この空間3は、後述のように、ポンプ装置5によってこの空間3の空気が吸引されたことによって、この空間3が良好な断熱空間となるような厚さであり、10mm〜20mm前後の厚さがあればその断熱機能が発揮できる。窓面部分4は、その周縁部の枠部分7を含めて全体が均一な平板状をなす形状とするものでもよい。
【0022】
窓面部分4を通して受ける眩しさを減じるために、窓面部分4をサングラスのように着色をしたり光反射層を形成したり、或いは偏光板構造とすることができる。これによって、太陽光による眩しさを減じ、小型船舶などの操縦の安全が図れる。
【0023】
図6に示すパッキン2を採用した本発明の窓の曇り止め装置1において、使用に際して、曇り止め板10を窓30のガラス31の内側面に沿わせてパッキン2をガラス31に当接せしめ、この状態で空間3の空気をポンプ装置5によって吸引する。この吸引によって空間3が周囲よりも負圧になるため、ガラス31の内側面に吸着される。このとき可撓性シールヒレ50は外方へのびているため、後述のようにポンプ装置5で空間3の空気を吸引したとき、図6に点線で示すように、可撓性シールヒレ50が小型船舶等の窓ガラス31の内側面に面状に強く密着する。この場合、可撓性シールヒレ50で囲まれた内側領域において、パッキン2と窓ガラス31との間に隙間があっても、空間3の負圧が可撓性シールヒレ50の内側に作用して可撓性シールヒレ50の外側面が受ける周囲の空気圧との差によって、可撓性シールヒレ50は窓ガラス31に強く密着して空間3の気密を保つことができる。このため、パッキン2による気密性が良好となり、窓30に対する曇り止め装置1の保持が確実となり、安全であると共に空間3の負圧を長時間に亘り維持できることとなる。
【0024】
このように、可撓性シールヒレ50が小型船舶等の窓30の内側に面状に密着するため、パッキン2を当接させた状態で、ポンプ装置5によって空間3の空気を真空に向けて吸引することによって、空間3の密着性が良好となり、この空間3は断熱空間となるためこの部分での曇りが防止でき、電力不要の装置を提供できることとなる。
【0025】
窓の曇り止め装置1は、このように使用されるため、適用される窓30のガラス31の大きさに適合できる大きさに形成され、図1に示すような丸型に限らず種々の形状に構成することができる。また、本発明の窓の曇り止め装置1は、小型船舶用、或いはその他の装置用というように、それぞれ適用されるものごとに作製することができる。
【0026】
曇り止め板10は、窓面部分4を、空間3の負圧により変形して窓30の透視面31の破損を防止するよう形成している。小型船舶40の操縦席41の前方に設けられる窓30の透視面31は、一般的に強化ガラスが採用されており、5mm程度の厚さの平面板ガラスである。図3のように窓30のガラス31の内側面にパッキン2を当接せしめた状態でポンプ装置5によって空間3の空気を吸引して真空方向へ空気引きすることによって、この空間3は周辺外気よりも負圧となる。このポンプ装置5のポンプ作用によって窓30のガラス31と窓面部分4とが内側方向への作用力を受けるが、図3に点線で示すように、ガラス31よりも先に又は大きく窓面部分4が内側に変形するように形成しているため、この変形によってガラス31への変形力が緩和され、ガラス31の破損が防止される。
【0027】
ポンプ装置5は、曇り止め板10の吸引パイプ60に対して固定した形態でもよいが、吸引口6に対して着脱自在な構成としている。この着脱自在な構成の場合には、曇り止め板10に立設した吸引パイプ60に対して圧入によって着脱できる構成とする。ポンプ装置5は、窓の曇り止め装置1を窓ガラス31に当接させる前に予め吸引パイプ60に取り付けておく方法でもよく、また、窓の曇り止め装置1を窓ガラス31に当接させ状態でポンプ装置5を吸引パイプ60に取り付ける方法のいずれでもよい。
【0028】
ポンプ装置5の一つの形態を図5に示す。ポンプ装置5は、曇り止め板10の吸引パイプ60に取り付けられるバルブ部材8と、このバルブ部材8に着脱自在に結合されるポンプ本体5Aとで構成している。バルブ部材8は、合成樹脂製の合成ゴム、天然ゴムのいずれで形成されてもよく、吸引パイプ60に着脱自在に挿入される筒部8Aの外周に複数条の環状ヒレ81を形成し、筒部8Aを吸引パイプ60内に圧入することにより、この環状ヒレ81によってバルブ部材8と吸引パイプ60とのシールが達成される。またバルブ部材8の他方側8Bには環状の鍔82を形成し、この鍔82から先の部分はポンプ本体5Aのシリンダ9と着脱自在な密着挿入関係にある。そして、鍔82に対応した内側には常時閉じた状態を保つようにスリット85によってバルブ部を構成している。
【0029】
ポンプ本体5Aは、ポンプシリンダ9の開放端へバルブ部材8の他方側8Bが密着状態に環状の鍔82部分まで挿入され、操作レバー11にピストン棒13を介して連結したピストン12がシリンダ9内を往復運動するものである。このポンプ5は、レバー11によってピストン12が往復運動することによって空間3の空気が吸引される仕組みである。
【0030】
それを詳しく説明すると、バルブ部材8は中間に空気通となるスリット85を形成しており、ピストン12が矢印P方向へ動くときバルブ部材8のスリット85が開いて空間3の空気がポンプシリンダ9内へ吸い込まれ、ピストン12が矢印Q方向へ動くときポンプシリンダ9内へ吸い込まれた空気によってバルブ部材8が押圧されてスリット85が閉じ、ポンプシリンダ9内へ吸い込まれた空気はピストン12とポンプシリンダ9との隙間を通ってポンプシリンダ9とピストン棒13との間の隙間70からポンプシリンダ9外へ逃げる仕組みである。ピストン12の往復操作によって空間3の気圧が外気よりも負圧になると、バルブ部材8のスリット85は、この気圧差によって閉じた状態を維持する。この状態においてポンプ本体5Aは不要であるためバルブ部材8から取り外す。ポンプ本体5Aをバルブ部材8から取り外しても、バルブ部材8のスリット85が閉じたままの状態であるため、空間3の負圧は維持され曇り止め装置1は窓30に付着したままである。
【0031】
ポンプ装置5による吸引の程度は、この吸引によって生じる窓面部分4の変形を目視することによって、空間3の空気が真空方向へ引かれて空間3が負圧になったことが判るため、その時点でポンプ装置5による吸引を停止すればよい。窓面部分4の変形は、窓面部分4を通した視界が妨げられない程度が好ましい。
【0032】
実際、レバー11を往復動させてポンプ装置5によって空間3の空気を吸引するとき、次第にレバー11を矢印P方向へ引っ張り難くなり、遂にその引っ張りがある限度に達してきたことを、そのレバー11を操作する人が感じることができる。この状態でポンプ装置5による吸引を終了すればよい。
【0033】
また、空間3の気圧を表示するインジケータを曇り止め板10に設けることによって、このインジケータの表示を見てポンプ5による吸引の終了を行うように構成してもよい。
【0034】
上記のように、ポンプ装置5で空間3の空気を吸引することによって、この空間3は外気よりも真空に近い状態となって断熱空間となるため、この窓面部分4とこの窓面部分4に対応する窓30のガラス31の曇りが防止できる。外気温が高くなった状態など、曇りが生じない状況下では、窓の曇り止め装置1を取り外すことができる。この場合、バルブ部材8のスリット85部分を指で摘んで押し潰してスリット85を開くことによって、空間3へ外気が侵入して空間3の負圧が解消されるため、曇り止め板10を取り外すことができる。
【0035】
この他に、空間3に通じる吸気小孔を曇り止め板10に設けておき、通常はこの吸気小孔を栓で塞いだ状態とし、窓の曇り止め装置1を取り外す場合には、この栓を外して吸気小孔から空間3に空気を導入するようにして、空間3の負圧を解消して曇り止め板10を取り外すことができるように構成することもできる。
【0036】
図6のパッキン2に代わる他の実施形態に係るパッキン2を図7に示す。これにおいて、パッキン2は、環状の内側シール突部51と環状の外側シール突部50とで窓30との間に環状空間52を形成している。この場合、環状の外側シール突部50は可撓性シールヒレ50によって形成されており、環状の内側シール突部51は透視面31に密着して若干撓む突起状に形成している。またパッキン2は、曇り止め板10の周縁部を挟み込む環状溝55の対向面には一対の環状シール突起56、56が形成され、この環状シール突起56、56と曇り止め板10の周縁部が密着して、パッキン2と曇り止め板10との気密が保たれる構成である。
【0037】
このような曇り止め装置1を窓30の内側に対抗させて押し圧することによって、内側シール突部51と環状の外側シール突部50が窓30の透視面31に密着して撓みつつ環状空間52の空気が押し出される。この状態でこの押し圧力を解除すると、内側シール突部51と外側シール突部50を含むパッキン2の復元力によって、環状空間52が負圧となって窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着される。このように曇り止め装置1が窓30のガラス31に保持された状態において、ポンプ装置5を吸引パイプ60に取り付けてポンプ操作を開始するか、予め取り付けたポンプ装置5のポンプ操作を開始するかの作業を行える。
【0038】
上記のように、可撓性シールヒレ50が小型船舶等の窓30の内側に密着するため、密着性が良好となり、パッキン2を当接させた状態でポンプ装置5によって空間3の空気を真空に向けて吸引することによって、この空間3は断熱空間となるため、窓面部分では曇りが防止でき、電力不要の装置を提供できることとなる。また、窓30に対する押し圧によって環状空間52の空気が追い出されて負圧となり、窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着するため、曇り止め装置1の仮止めが達成され、曇り止め装置を窓に押さえつけるために他の人の手を借りることなく、曇り止め装置1の窓30への取り付けとポンプ装置5の操作とを一人でができることとなり、作業も簡単になる。
【0039】
ポンプ装置5によって空間3が負圧となり窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着した状態において、若し、内側シール突部51と窓ガラス31との間に隙間が生じた場合でも、空間3の負圧が可撓性シールヒレ50の内側に作用して可撓性シールヒレ50の外側面が受ける周囲の空気圧との差によって、可撓性シールヒレ50は窓ガラス31に強く密着して空間3の気密を保つことができる。このため、パッキン2による気密性が良好となり、窓30に対する曇り止め装置1の保持が確実となり、安全であると共に空間3の負圧を長時間に亘り維持できる。
【0040】
また、図8にはパッキン2の更に他の形態を示す。このパッキン2は、複数の環状のシール突部50、51、53によって内側と外側の二重の環状空間52、54を形成している。曇り止め装置1を窓30の内側に対抗させて押し圧することによって、シール突部50、51、53が窓30の透視面31に密着して撓みつつ環状空間52、54の空気が押し出される。この状態でこの押し圧力を解除すると、シール突部50、51、53を含むパッキン2の復元力によって、環状空間52、54が負圧となって窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着される。この二重の環状空間52、54による吸着にて曇り止め装置1の窓30に対する保持力をアップすることができる。この場合、環状の外側シール突部50は可撓性シールヒレ50によって形成され、環状の内側シール突部51は可撓性シールヒレ50と同様な可撓性シールヒレによって形成され、中間の環状シール突部53は弧状の凸形に形成して、窓30の透視面31に対する密着性を良好にしている。
【0041】
このように、可撓性シールヒレ50が小型船舶等の窓30の内側に密着するため、密着性が良好となり、パッキン2を当接させた状態でポンプ装置5によって空間3の空気を真空に向けて吸引することによって、この空間3は断熱空間となるためこの部分では曇りが防止でき、電力不要の装置を提供できることとなる。また、窓30に対する押し圧によって環状空間52、54の空気が追い出されて負圧となり、窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着するため、曇り止め装置1の仮止めが達成され、曇り止め装置を窓に押さえつけるために他の人の手を借りることなく、曇り止め装置1の窓30への取り付けとポンプ装置5の操作とを一人でができることとなり、作業も簡単になる。
【0042】
本発明において、図6乃至図8のいずれの形態のパッキンにおいても、窓30に対する押し圧によって環状空間の空気を追い出して、窓30に曇り止め装置1が吸着保持される時間は、その後に行われるポンプ装置5の取り付け及び又はポンプ操作の開始まで、この吸着保持が維持されればよい。このため、その吸着保持時間は、実質的には10数秒〜数10秒もあればこれらの作業ができるため15秒、20秒、30秒、40秒、50秒のように数十秒に設定できるが、安全を見越して1分あれば安心できる。
【0043】
本発明は、小型船舶の窓の曇り止めに係わらずその他の物の窓の曇り止めにも適用できる。このため、上記実施形態に限定されず、本発明の技術的範囲を逸脱しない限り種々の変更が考えられ、それに係る種々の実施形態を包含するものである。
【0044】
【発明の効果】
本発明によって、可撓性シールヒレは外方へのびているため、窓との接触が面接触となって気密保持が良好となる。また、ポンプ装置などで前記空間の空気を吸引するようにすれば、そのとき周囲の空気圧を可撓性シールヒレの外面で受けることにより、可撓性シールヒレが小型船舶等の窓の内側面に強く密着するため、パッキンによる気密性が良好となり、窓に対する曇り止め装置の保持が確実となり、前記空間の負圧を長時間に亘り維持できると共に安全でもある。そして、前記空間は断熱空間となるため、この部分では曇りが防止でき、電力不要の装置を提供できる効果がある。このため、小型船舶の操縦席の窓に事前に取り付けておけば、小型船舶を運転する際には曇りなく運転ができ、航行上も安全である。
【0045】
また、本願発明では、窓に当接するパッキンの面に窓との間で環状空間を形成するように構成したことにより、前記窓に対する押し圧によって環状空間の空気が追い出されて負圧となり、それによって前記窓に曇り止め装置が吸着するため、曇り止め装置の仮止めができる。このため、ポンプ装置が付加されていれば曇り止め装置が吸着保持されている間にそのポンプ装置の操作を開始できることとなり、曇り止め装置を窓に押さえつけるために他の人の手を借りずに、一人で曇り止め装置の窓への取り付けとポンプ装置の操作とができることとなり、作業も簡単になる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an anti-fog device for an inner surface of a window whose outer surface is exposed to cool air.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a method for preventing fogging of the window glass, a method of blowing heated air heated by an electric heating appliance onto the window glass (for example, Patent Document 1), or a method of electrically generating heat from a transparent thin film formed on the window glass, the window glass. (For example, Patent Document 2).
[0003]
The method of Patent Document 1 requires a heating device and a duct mechanism or the like for guiding the heated air to the window glass, which makes the device complicated and expensive. Further, in the method of Patent Document 2, a heat generating film is formed on a window glass by a method such as forming a film by a sputtering method, transferring an electric thin film, or coating a thin film. The equipment, including the transmitter and wiring equipment, becomes complicated.
[0004]
Conventionally, in small boats such as pleasure boats, when the outside air temperature is low, moisture in the air condenses on the inner surface of the window in front of the cabin covering the cockpit due to the temperature difference between the outside air and the cabin. Cloudy. When the outside air is below freezing, the water may freeze. Both of the above methods require a power source with a stable power supply.However, in small vessels such as pleasure boats, expensive facilities are required to stabilize the power supply. It is not preferable to apply the above method as an anti-fog device for windows. Neither of the above two methods is considered as a removable fogging prevention device.
[0005]
To prevent fogging of the window glass of small boats, there is a method in which hot water cooled by the engine of the small boat is poured into a radiator, and the hot air heated by the radiator is blown onto the window glass with a fan to remove the fogging. In this case, not only a radiator and a fan are required, but also a hot water pipe is required, and a battery for supplying power to the fan is required, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of power consumption.
[0006]
Further, a part of a window in front of the cockpit of a small boat has a window structure called a revolving window that rotates a transparent plate by an electric motor, and the revolving window functions as a so-called wiper that repels rain that collides during navigation. is there. Although the fogging can be eliminated by turning the swivel window, in order to purchase the swivel window and attach it to the window of the completed ship, it is actually difficult to perform the processing required for the installation on the ship, so it is actually quite difficult, Normally, a method of attaching a ship at the time of manufacture is adopted. Further, this turning window also requires a battery for power to be supplied to the electric motor, which is not preferable in terms of power consumption.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of the above, the present invention provides a device that does not require a power source, can easily be attached to a window to prevent fogging of the window, and can be easily removed when unnecessary. is there.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The anti-fog device for a window of the present invention is mounted on the inner surface of a window whose outer surface is exposed to cold air, and is surrounded by a packing that is in close contact with the inner surface of the window all around, and is surrounded by the packing. A fog preventing plate having a see-through window surface portion facing the see-through surface of the window with a space in a region, wherein the packing extends outward so as to closely contact the inside of the window in a planar manner. It has a characteristic seal fin.
[0010]
For this reason, since the flexible seal fin extends outward, the flexible seal fin receives the surrounding air pressure on the outer surface of the flexible seal fin, for example, when the air in the space is sucked by a pump device. Closely adhere to the inner surface of the window. For this reason, the airtightness of the packing is improved, the holding of the fogging prevention device with respect to the window is ensured, and it is safe and the negative pressure in the space can be maintained for a long time. Further, since the space is a heat insulating space, fogging can be prevented at this window surface portion, and there is an effect that a device which does not require electric power can be provided. For this reason, if the small boat is mounted on the cockpit window of the small boat in advance, the small boat can be operated without fogging, and the navigation is safe.
[0011]
Further, the fogging prevention device for a window of the present invention has a packing having an outer surface closely contacted with the inner surface of the window exposed to the cool air all around, and a transparent surface and a space of the window in a region surrounded by the packing. An anti-fog plate having a see-through window surface portion facing the front surface, wherein the packing forms an annular space between the window with an annular inner seal projection and an annular outer seal projection, The suction pressure can be applied to the window by a negative pressure in the annular space due to a pressing pressure on the window.
[0012]
For this reason, in addition to the above-mentioned effects, the air in the annular space is expelled by the pressing pressure against the window and becomes negative pressure, whereby the anti-fog device is adsorbed to the window, and the air in the space is sucked by the pump device. If a mechanism is added, the operation of the pump device can be started while the anti-fogging device is being held by suction, and the fog preventing device can be stopped alone without the help of another person to hold the anti-fog device against the window Since the device can be mounted on the window and the pump device can be operated, the operation can be simplified. For this reason, it is effective as a holding mechanism of the fogging prevention device before the suction operation of the air in the space by the pump device.
[0013]
Further, the fogging prevention device for a window according to the present invention is characterized in that the annular space is formed as a double inside and outside by a plurality of annular sealing projections. For this reason, in addition to the above effects, the holding power of the anti-fog device with respect to the window before suction using a pump device or the like can be further increased, and stable holding can be achieved.
[0014]

It is.
[0015]
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is particularly effective when applied to a window in which fogging occurs on a window glass and visibility becomes poor, thereby causing a problem. For this reason, the window 30 targeted by the present invention is a see-through window whose outer surface is exposed to cold air, and is, for example, a cockpit 41 of a small boat 40 such as a pleasure boat, a small passenger boat, a small transport boat, or the like. It is a front window 30 provided in front, or a window of other things.
[0016]
Hereinafter, the window anti-fog device of the present invention will be described for the small boat 40. In the small boat 40, the front window 30 provided with the bridge 43 covering the cockpit 41 and the cabin 42 behind it, that is, the see-through surface 31 of the front window 30 provided in front of the cockpit 41 The inside surface is exposed to the air temperature of the cockpit 41 and the cabin 42, and in the winter season or the like, the temperature difference causes the inside surface of the see-through surface 31 to be clouded or dewed by moisture. There is an effect that this can be prevented in the portion of the window where the anti-fog device 1 is attached.
[0017]
The window 30 generally has a form in which a periphery of a see-through surface 31 is surrounded by a frame 32, and its shape is various such as a square, a polygon, and a circle. The see-through surface 31 is made of a material that can see through from one side to the other side regardless of whether it is colored or uncolored, and is made of plastics or glass. The front window 30 of the small boat 40 provided with the bridge 43 covering the cockpit 41 and the cabin 42 behind the cockpit 41, that is, the see-through surface 31 of the front window 30 provided in front of the cockpit 41 has poor visibility due to surface damage. In consideration of the problem and the strength, tempered glass that is hard to be scratched is generally employed.
[0018]
The anti-fog device 1 for a window of the present invention is mounted on the inner surface of a window 30 whose outer surface is exposed to cold air. A fog preventing plate 10 having a see-through window surface portion 4 facing the see-through surface 31 of the window 30 and the space 3 in a region surrounded by a circle. It has a flexible seal fin 50 extending in the direction, and the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5. The packing 2 may be either synthetic rubber or natural rubber made of a synthetic resin, and the flexible seal fin 50 makes surface contact with the see-through surface 31 toward the outside of the packing 2 as shown by a dotted line in FIGS. And it comes into close contact with the see-through surface 31. In the packing 2, a pair of annular seal projections 56, 56 are formed on the opposing surface of the annular groove 55 that sandwiches the peripheral edge of the anti-fog plate 10, and the annular seal projections 56, 56 and the peripheral edge of the anti-fog plate 10 are formed. Are adhered to each other, and the airtightness between the packing 2 and the anti-fog plate 10 is maintained.
[0019]
The anti-fog plate 10 has the window surface portion 4 formed of a transparent material, and may be formed entirely of a single transparent material. That is, the window surface portion 4 and the frame portion 7 surrounding the periphery thereof and to which the packing 2 is attached can be formed of one transparent material. On the other hand, the window surface portion 4 and the frame portion 7 surrounding the periphery thereof and attaching the packing 2 can be formed of different members. For this reason, when the anti-fog plate 10 is formed of a single transparent material, the anti-fog plate 10 is formed by molding a highly transparent synthetic resin such as acrylic or polycarbonate into a predetermined shape. When the window surface portion 4 and the surrounding frame portion 7 are separately formed and air-tightly combined, the window surface portion 4 is made of a synthetic material such as a transparent tempered glass or acrylic or polycarbonate having excellent transparency. The frame portion 7 can be formed of wood, metal, synthetic resin, or the like.
[0020]
Further, the anti-fog plate 10 includes a suction port 6 communicating with the space 3. A suction pipe 60 communicating with the suction port 6 and attaching the pump device 5 is adhered to the outer surface of the anti-fog plate 10 with an adhesive. The suction pipe 60 is formed of a transparent synthetic resin so as not to obstruct the view, and since the anti-fog plate 10 and the suction pipe 60 are transparent plates, the air bubbles and the adhesive surface contained in the adhesive are seen through from the outside to design. In order to solve the problem, a flat end surface of the suction pipe 60 is adhered to the outer surface of the anti-fog plate 10 in a plane.
[0021]
The window surface portion 4 is formed so as to be recessed from the frame portion 7 so as to form a uniform flat plate as a whole in order to maintain good visibility through the window surface portion. In the enclosed area, a substantially uniform space 3 is formed between the window 30 and the flat transparent surface 31 of the window 30. The space 3 has such a thickness that the space 3 becomes a good heat-insulated space when the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5 as described later, and has a thickness of about 10 mm to 20 mm. If there is, the heat insulation function can be exhibited. The window surface portion 4 may be formed into a uniform flat plate shape including the frame portion 7 at the peripheral edge thereof.
[0022]
In order to reduce the glare received through the window portion 4, the window portion 4 can be colored like a sunglass, formed with a light reflection layer, or have a polarizing plate structure. As a result, glare caused by sunlight is reduced, and the safety of maneuvering a small boat or the like can be improved.
[0023]
In the window fogging prevention device 1 of the present invention employing the packing 2 shown in FIG. 6, when used, the packing 2 is brought into contact with the glass 31 by moving the fogging prevention plate 10 along the inner surface of the glass 31 of the window 30. In this state, the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5. This suction causes the space 3 to be more negative than the surroundings, so that the space 3 is adsorbed on the inner surface of the glass 31. At this time, since the flexible seal fin 50 extends outward, when the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5 as described later, as shown by the dotted line in FIG. Strongly adheres to the inner surface of the window glass 31. In this case, even if there is a gap between the packing 2 and the window glass 31 in the inner region surrounded by the flexible seal fin 50, the negative pressure in the space 3 acts on the inside of the flexible seal fin 50. Due to the difference between the outside air pressure received by the outer surface of the flexible seal fin 50 and the surrounding air pressure, the flexible seal fin 50 can be tightly adhered to the window glass 31 to keep the space 3 airtight. For this reason, the airtightness of the packing 2 is improved, the holding of the fogging prevention device 1 with respect to the window 30 is ensured, and it is safe and the negative pressure of the space 3 can be maintained for a long time.
[0024]
As described above, since the flexible seal fin 50 comes into close contact with the inside of the window 30 of a small boat or the like, the air in the space 3 is sucked toward the vacuum by the pump device 5 with the packing 2 abutted. By doing so, the adhesion of the space 3 becomes good, and the space 3 becomes an adiabatic space, so that it is possible to prevent fogging in this part and to provide a device that does not require electric power.
[0025]
Since the window fogging prevention device 1 is used in this manner, the fogging prevention device 1 is formed in a size that can be adapted to the size of the glass 31 of the window 30 to be applied, and is not limited to a round shape as shown in FIG. Can be configured. In addition, the window fogging prevention device 1 of the present invention can be manufactured for each application, such as for small boats or other devices.
[0026]
The anti-fog plate 10 is formed so that the window surface portion 4 is deformed by the negative pressure of the space 3 to prevent the see-through surface 31 of the window 30 from being damaged. The see-through surface 31 of the window 30 provided in front of the cockpit 41 of the small boat 40 is generally made of tempered glass and is a flat plate glass having a thickness of about 5 mm. As shown in FIG. 3, while the packing 2 is in contact with the inner surface of the glass 31 of the window 30, the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5 and evacuated in the vacuum direction, so that the space 3 It becomes more negative pressure. The glass 31 of the window 30 and the window portion 4 receive an inward acting force due to the pump action of the pump device 5, but as shown by the dotted line in FIG. 4 is formed so as to be deformed inward, the deformation reduces the deformation force on the glass 31 and prevents the glass 31 from being damaged.
[0027]
The pump device 5 may be fixed to the suction pipe 60 of the anti-fog plate 10, but is configured to be detachable from the suction port 6. In the case of this detachable structure, the suction pipe 60 erected on the anti-fog plate 10 is detachable by press-fitting. The pump device 5 may be attached to the suction pipe 60 before the window anti-fog device 1 is brought into contact with the window glass 31. Alternatively, the pump device 5 may be brought into contact with the window anti-fog device 1 against the window glass 31. The method of attaching the pump device 5 to the suction pipe 60 may be adopted.
[0028]
One embodiment of the pump device 5 is shown in FIG. The pump device 5 includes a valve member 8 attached to the suction pipe 60 of the anti-fog plate 10 and a pump body 5A detachably connected to the valve member 8. The valve member 8 may be formed of either synthetic rubber or natural rubber made of a synthetic resin. A plurality of annular fins 81 are formed on the outer periphery of a cylindrical portion 8A which is removably inserted into the suction pipe 60. By press-fitting the portion 8A into the suction pipe 60, the seal between the valve member 8 and the suction pipe 60 is achieved by the annular fin 81. Further, an annular flange 82 is formed on the other side 8B of the valve member 8, and a portion beyond the flange 82 has a detachable close insertion relationship with the cylinder 9 of the pump body 5A. A valve portion is formed by a slit 85 on the inside corresponding to the flange 82 so as to always maintain a closed state.
[0029]
In the pump body 5A, the other end 8B of the valve member 8 is inserted into the open end of the pump cylinder 9 to the annular flange 82 portion in close contact with the annular flange 82, and the piston 12 connected to the operation lever 11 via the piston rod 13 has a piston 12 inside the cylinder 9. Reciprocating motion. The pump 5 has a mechanism in which the air in the space 3 is sucked by the reciprocation of the piston 12 by the lever 11.
[0030]
More specifically, the valve member 8 has a slit 85 formed in the middle thereof, through which air passes, and when the piston 12 moves in the direction of arrow P, the slit 85 of the valve member 8 opens to allow the air in the space 3 to flow through the pump cylinder 9. When the piston 12 moves in the direction of arrow Q, the valve member 8 is pressed by the air sucked into the pump cylinder 9 and the slit 85 is closed, and the air sucked into the pump cylinder 9 is drawn into the piston 12 and the pump. This is a mechanism that escapes from the gap 70 between the pump cylinder 9 and the piston rod 13 to the outside of the pump cylinder 9 through the gap with the cylinder 9. When the pressure of the space 3 becomes lower than that of the outside air due to the reciprocating operation of the piston 12, the slit 85 of the valve member 8 maintains a closed state due to the pressure difference. In this state, the pump body 5A is unnecessary and is removed from the valve member 8. Even when the pump body 5A is detached from the valve member 8, the negative pressure in the space 3 is maintained and the anti-fog device 1 remains attached to the window 30 because the slit 85 of the valve member 8 remains closed.
[0031]
The degree of suction by the pump device 5 can be determined by visually observing the deformation of the window surface portion 4 caused by the suction, which indicates that the air in the space 3 has been drawn in the vacuum direction and the space 3 has become a negative pressure. At this point, the suction by the pump device 5 may be stopped. The deformation of the window portion 4 is preferably such that the view through the window portion 4 is not obstructed.
[0032]
Actually, when the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5 by reciprocating the lever 11, it becomes difficult to gradually pull the lever 11 in the direction of the arrow P. The person who operates can feel. In this state, the suction by the pump device 5 may be terminated.
[0033]
Further, an indicator for displaying the atmospheric pressure of the space 3 may be provided on the anti-fog plate 10 so that the suction by the pump 5 is terminated by watching the indicator.
[0034]
As described above, when the air in the space 3 is sucked by the pump device 5, the space 3 becomes closer to a vacuum than the outside air and becomes an adiabatic space. The fogging of the glass 31 of the window 30 corresponding to the above can be prevented. Under conditions where fogging does not occur, such as when the outside air temperature is high, the fogging prevention device 1 for the window can be removed. In this case, the slit 85 of the valve member 8 is pinched and crushed by a finger to open the slit 85, so that outside air enters the space 3 and the negative pressure in the space 3 is eliminated, so that the anti-fog plate 10 is removed. be able to.
[0035]
In addition to this, a small air intake hole communicating with the space 3 is provided on the anti-fog plate 10, and the small air intake hole is normally closed with a plug. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the air is introduced into the space 3 through the small holes and the negative pressure in the space 3 is eliminated, and the anti-fog plate 10 can be removed.
[0036]
FIG. 7 shows a packing 2 according to another embodiment that replaces the packing 2 of FIG. In this case, the packing 2 forms an annular space 52 between the window 30 by the annular inner seal projection 51 and the annular outer seal projection 50. In this case, the annular outer seal projection 50 is formed by a flexible seal fin 50, and the annular inner seal projection 51 is formed in a protruding shape that is slightly bent in close contact with the see-through surface 31. In the packing 2, a pair of annular seal projections 56, 56 are formed on the opposing surface of the annular groove 55 that sandwiches the peripheral edge of the anti-fog plate 10. This is a configuration in which the packing 2 and the anti-fog plate 10 are kept in close contact with each other to keep the airtightness.
[0037]
By pressing the anti-fog device 1 against the inside of the window 30 and pressing it, the inner seal projection 51 and the annular outer seal projection 50 are brought into close contact with the see-through surface 31 of the window 30 and bend while the annular space 52 is bent. Air is pushed out. When this pressing force is released in this state, the annular space 52 becomes a negative pressure due to the restoring force of the packing 2 including the inner seal protrusion 51 and the outer seal protrusion 50, and the window 30 is attracted to the fogging prevention device 1. . In this state where the anti-fog device 1 is held by the glass 31 of the window 30, whether the pump device 5 is attached to the suction pipe 60 and the pump operation is started, or the pump operation of the previously attached pump device 5 is started. Work can be done.
[0038]
As described above, since the flexible seal fin 50 is in close contact with the inside of the window 30 of a small boat or the like, the adhesion is good, and the air in the space 3 is evacuated by the pump device 5 with the packing 2 abutted. The space 3 becomes an adiabatic space by sucking toward, so that fogging can be prevented at the window surface portion, and a device that does not require electric power can be provided. Further, the air in the annular space 52 is expelled by the pressing pressure on the window 30 and becomes negative pressure, and the fogging prevention device 1 is adsorbed to the window 30. Thus, the fogging prevention device 1 is temporarily fixed, and the fogging prevention device is attached to the window. The attachment of the anti-fog device 1 to the window 30 and the operation of the pump device 5 can be performed by one person without the help of another person to press down, which simplifies the work.
[0039]
In a state where the space 3 becomes negative pressure by the pump device 5 and the anti-fogging device 1 is attracted to the window 30, even if a gap is generated between the inner seal projection 51 and the window glass 31, the space 3 is negatively charged. The pressure acts on the inside of the flexible seal fin 50 and a difference from the surrounding air pressure received on the outer surface of the flexible seal fin 50 causes the flexible seal fin 50 to strongly adhere to the window glass 31 to make the space 3 airtight. Can be kept. For this reason, the airtightness by the packing 2 is improved, the holding of the fogging prevention device 1 with respect to the window 30 is ensured, and the safety and the negative pressure in the space 3 can be maintained for a long time.
[0040]
FIG. 8 shows still another embodiment of the packing 2. The packing 2 forms double inner and outer annular spaces 52 and 54 by a plurality of annular seal projections 50, 51 and 53. When the anti-fog device 1 is pressed against the inside of the window 30, the air in the annular spaces 52, 54 is pushed out while the seal projections 50, 51, 53 are in close contact with the see-through surface 31 of the window 30 and flex. When the pressing force is released in this state, the annular space 52, 54 becomes a negative pressure due to the restoring force of the packing 2 including the seal projections 50, 51, 53, and the fogging prevention device 1 is attracted to the window 30. The holding force of the fogging prevention device 1 with respect to the window 30 can be increased by the suction by the double annular spaces 52 and 54. In this case, the annular outer seal projection 50 is formed by a flexible seal fin 50, the annular inner seal projection 51 is formed by a flexible seal fin similar to the flexible seal fin 50, and an intermediate annular seal projection. Numeral 53 is formed in an arc-shaped convex shape to improve the adhesion of the window 30 to the see-through surface 31.
[0041]
As described above, since the flexible seal fin 50 is in close contact with the inside of the window 30 of a small boat or the like, the adhesion is good, and the air in the space 3 is directed to the vacuum by the pump device 5 with the packing 2 abutted. By suctioning, the space 3 becomes an adiabatic space, so that fogging can be prevented in this portion, and a device that does not require electric power can be provided. Further, the air in the annular spaces 52 and 54 is expelled by the pressing pressure on the window 30 to be negative pressure, and the fogging prevention device 1 is adsorbed to the window 30. Thus, the fogging prevention device 1 is temporarily fixed, and the fogging prevention device is removed. The mounting of the anti-fog device 1 on the window 30 and the operation of the pump device 5 can be performed by one person without the help of another person to hold down the window, thereby simplifying the work.
[0042]
In the present invention, in any of the packings of FIGS. 6 to 8, the time in which the air in the annular space is expelled by the pressing pressure on the window 30 and the anti-fog device 1 is sucked and held in the window 30 is thereafter set. The suction holding may be maintained until the mounting of the pump device 5 and / or the start of the pump operation. For this reason, the suction holding time is set to several tens of seconds, such as 15 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 40 seconds, and 50 seconds, because these operations can be performed if there are practically several seconds to several tens of seconds. You can do it, but you can feel safe if you take one minute in anticipation of safety.
[0043]
The present invention is applicable not only to the fogging of windows of small boats but also to fogging of windows of other things. For this reason, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be considered without departing from the technical scope of the present invention, and the invention includes various embodiments.
[0044]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, since the flexible seal fin extends outward, the contact with the window becomes a surface contact, and the airtightness is maintained well. Further, if the air in the space is sucked by a pump device or the like, the surrounding air pressure is received on the outer surface of the flexible seal fin at that time, so that the flexible seal fin is strongly applied to the inner surface of the window of a small boat or the like. Due to the close contact, the airtightness of the packing is improved, the holding of the anti-fog device with respect to the window is ensured, and the negative pressure in the space can be maintained for a long time and is also safe. Since the space is an adiabatic space, fogging can be prevented in this portion, and there is an effect that a device that does not require electric power can be provided. For this reason, if the small boat is mounted on the cockpit window of the small boat in advance, the small boat can be operated without fogging, and the navigation is safe.
[0045]
Further, in the present invention, by forming the annular space between the window and the surface of the packing abutting on the window, the air in the annular space is expelled by the pushing pressure on the window and becomes a negative pressure. As a result, the anti-fog device is adsorbed to the window, so that the anti-fog device can be temporarily fixed. For this reason, if the pump device is added, the operation of the pump device can be started while the anti-fog device is being sucked and held, and without the help of another person to hold the anti-fog device against the window. In addition, since the user can mount the anti-fog device on the window and operate the pump device by himself, the operation is simplified.
[0046]
Moreover, the fogging prevention device for a window of the present invention has the annular space formed inwardly and outwardly by a plurality of annular sealing projections. Since the holding power of the anti-fog device can be further increased, stable holding can be achieved.
