Description

  The present invention relates to a display method, display object and product for explaining thermal comfort performance, and in particular, a display method and display object for easily explaining to a third party the thermal comfort performance of a window glass, a building, etc. In addition, the present invention relates to a product having a function for explaining thermal comfort performance.

  Conventionally, various glass plates are used for architectural window glass. For example, there are various types of glass such as multi-layer glass, laminated glass, heat ray (or ultraviolet ray) reflection glass, heat ray (or ultraviolet ray) absorption glass, and a combination of these, and windows made of ordinary single plates. Compared to glass, it has the added value of superior thermal comfort and security performance in the room.

When explaining the thermal comfort performance, which is one of the characteristics of these various glass products, to a third party, conventionally, a thermal index such as SET ^* (Standard New Effective Temperature) or PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) is used. It was done. For example, SET ^* is an index proposed by Gagge and West, calculated based on a thermal equilibrium formula established between a human body model that takes into account body temperature regulation and the thermal environment surrounding it. The thermal environment can be comprehensively evaluated by environmental variables such as air temperature, radiation, humidity, air velocity, clothing amount, work amount, air pressure, artificial air, etc. In ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers), SET ^* is in the range of 22.2 to 25.6 ° C. as a comfortable area.

JP-A-9-142888 (Claim 1, FIG. 1) Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-114338 (FIG. 1)

However, SET ^* and PMV are merely numerical values, and there is a problem that the causal relationship with the thermal comfort performance of the glass plate is difficult to understand. For example, even if multiple glass plates are listed in the product catalog and the value of SET ^* is written together to explain their thermal comfort performance, how much performance difference is caused by the difference in value? There is a problem that it is difficult for the user to understand.

On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses a decorative glass excellent in design by adding a mark using a water repellent film to the surface of a glass plate. However, this document does not disclose anything about explaining the thermal comfort performance of the glass plate itself to a third party by using a mark attached to the surface of the glass plate. Moreover, although patent document 2 describes expressing the house performance with a figure, it is merely symbolizing various matters, and is sufficient for allowing a third party to understand the difference in thermal comfort performance. However, the present invention solves such a problem, and provides a display method, a display object, and a product for explaining the thermal comfort performance that can easily understand the thermal comfort performance of various products. The purpose is to provide.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention displays information for uniquely identifying a product and a diagram in which the thermal comfort performance of the product is expressed by a clothing amount or a physical load on a predetermined medium. A display method for explaining the thermal comfort performance characterized by the above is provided.

  Further, as one aspect of the display method according to the present invention, the medium may be a brochure, catalog, flyer, packaging container, book, poster, mural, signboard, advertising tower, bulletin board, homepage, television broadcast, movie, and / or electronic It is preferably at least one selected from games.

  Further, as one aspect of the display method according to the present invention, the product is a glass product, a transparent resin product, an automobile, a rail vehicle, an aircraft, a ship, a building, a building member, an air conditioner, a cooling device, and / or a heating device. It is preferably at least one selected from

  In addition, the present invention is a thermal comfort characterized by comprising a medium in which information for uniquely identifying a product and a diagram in which the thermal comfort performance of the product is represented by a clothing amount or a physical load are displayed side by side. Provide a display to explain the performance.

  Moreover, as an aspect of the display according to the present invention, the medium is at least one selected from a brochure, catalog, flyer, packaging container, book, poster, mural, signboard, advertising tower, and / or bulletin board. Preferably there is.

  Further, as one aspect of the display object according to the present invention, the product is selected from a glass product, a transparent resin product, an automobile, a railway vehicle, an aircraft, a ship, a building, an air conditioner, a cooling device, and / or a heating device. It is preferable that it is at least any one.

  Further, the present invention is at least any one product selected from glass products, transparent resin products, automobiles, railway vehicles, aircrafts, ships, buildings, building members, air conditioners, cooling devices, and / or heating devices. There is provided a product having a function for explaining the thermal comfort performance, characterized in that the product is provided with a figure in which the thermal comfort performance of the product is expressed by a clothing amount or a physical load.

  The present invention allows the user to know the degree and difference of the thermal comfort performance of the product by the impression received from a figure (such as a mark) in which the thermal comfort performance of the product is expressed by the amount of clothes or physical load, and intuitively the product. You can know the thermal comfort performance that has.

  Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an embodiment of a display object according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, the paper 10 has a product name 11, a model number 12 of the product, a drawing 13 of the product, a mark 14 indicating the thermal comfort performance of the product, and a description 15 of the product. Is described. As described above, the information such as the product name 11, the model number 12 and / or the drawing 13 is uniquely indicated, and the mark 14 indicating the thermal comfort performance is written together so that the thermal comfort performance of the product can be intuitively understood. Can know. The mark 14 indicating the thermal comfort performance is a diagram expressing the thermal comfort performance of the product by a difference in the amount of clothes such as a suit or a T-shirt, or by a difference in physical load such as sitting or standing.

Note that the mark 14 may be in any form such as a realistic or cartoon picture, pictograph, or photograph as long as it can express a difference in the amount of clothes or a difference in physical load. In addition, the amount of clothing expressed by the mark 14 corresponds to a thermal index (SET ^* or the like) measured with the product. As described above, since SET ^* is obtained with the amount of clothes as one parameter, it is easy to convert the value of SET ^* into the amount of clothes by giving other parameters such as temperature.

Conventionally, a thermal index such as SET ^* has been described in place of the mark 14, but for general consumers who are unfamiliar with the thermal index, it is accurate to indicate how much thermal comfort performance the value means. I couldn't recognize it. On the other hand, in the present invention, the above-described conventional problems are solved by attaching a mark 14 reminiscent of the thermal comfort of the product. Information for uniquely identifying a product may be expressed by a method other than the above, or may be expressed by combining various descriptions.

  FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a mark indicating the thermal comfort performance, in which the difference in the thermal comfort performance is expressed by the difference in the amount of clothes. The window glass for automobiles is assumed as the product, and examples of normal green glass and IR cut glass will be described below. Green glass is a glass plate that cuts infrared light during solar radiation by including iron in the glass composition.

  In contrast, IR cut glass has a laminated glass structure in which an intermediate film made of a transparent resin is sandwiched between two glass plates, and further includes conductive ITO ultrafine particles in the intermediate film. By the function of the ITO ultrafine particles, visible light can be transmitted but the transmission of infrared light is cut and the radio wave is transmitted. Accordingly, it is possible to cut the infrared light while enabling wireless communication between the outside of the vehicle and the inside of the vehicle, and prevent an increase in the temperature inside the vehicle while realizing various types of wireless communication. Further, in recent years, IR cut glass has been used for automobile door glass, which has contributed to the suppression of the rise in vehicle interior temperature.

When the sensory temperature in the conventional green glass corresponds to a suit shape (FIG. 2A), the IR cut glass is used to correspond to a T-shirt and long pants (FIG. 2B). The SET ^* city to experience in SET ^* and IR cut glass to experience in green glass, air temperature, although slightly changes depending on the environment conditions of the human body around such humidity and sunlight, the difference is about several degrees.

  Even if such a difference is shown as a numerical value, a general user cannot grasp how much the actual experience is different and cannot understand the excellent thermal comfort performance of the IR cut glass. However, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, anyone can easily recognize the difference by expressing the thermal comfort performance by the difference in the amount of clothes.

  FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the mark indicating the thermal comfort performance. In this embodiment, the difference in thermal comfort performance is expressed by the difference in body load. That is, in FIG. 3A, the difference is expressed by a state in which the commuter train stands on the strap, and in FIG. 3B, the difference is expressed by a state sitting on the commuter train seat. Similarly to the case of FIG. 2, by expressing with such a difference in physical load, even a general user can easily understand the difference in thermal comfort performance. As for the difference in physical load, various forms such as a figure of a person walking or running, a figure of a person swimming, a figure of a person performing gymnastics, a figure of a person sleeping can be used.

Although FIG. 1 shows an example in which the mark 14 is attached to the paper 10, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a specific example of the medium to which the mark 14 is attached is selected from a pamphlet, a catalog, a flyer, a packaging container, a book, a poster, a mural, a signboard, an advertising tower, a bulletin board, a homepage, a television broadcast, a movie, and / or an electronic game. There is at least one of them. Further, the physical load expressed by the mark 14 corresponds to a thermal index (SET ^* or the like) measured by the product.

  FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of the present invention. The mark 14 described above may be attached not only to a medium such as a catalog but also directly to the product itself. By attaching the mark 24 directly to a part of the product 20, the thermal comfort of the product 20 can be easily known as described above. In addition, as a specific example of the product to which the mark 24 is attached, selected from a glass product, a transparent resin product, an automobile, a railway vehicle, an aircraft, a ship, a building, a building member, an air conditioner, a cooling device, and / or a heating device. There is at least one of them.

  FIG. 5 is a plan view showing another embodiment of the present invention. The mark 14 indicating the thermal comfort performance described above may be directly printed on a display object, product, etc., or a seal as shown in FIG. 5 is created and affixed to a medium such as a product or catalog. Also good. The seal 30 is printed with information (product name 31, model number 32) for uniquely identifying the product on the main surface, along with a mark 34 indicating the thermal comfort performance of the product, and an adhesive material is applied to the back surface. Has been. If it is such a seal | sticker, the display regarding thermal comfort can be suitably added with respect to a product. Note that the information for uniquely identifying the product may be expressed by a method other than the above, for example, other descriptions such as product drawings and photographs may be used, and may be expressed by combining various descriptions. May be.

As described above, according to the present invention, the thermal comfort performance of the product can be imagined from the state of the figure displayed on the product, and the thermal comfort performance of the product can be intuitively known. By displaying these diagrams on various media (catalogs, pamphlets, Internet websites, TV broadcast images, etc.), even those who are not familiar with special indicators such as SET ^* can easily enjoy thermal comfort performance. Can be recognized, products with different thermal comfort can be differentiated, and sales can be promoted.

  For example, when selling automobiles, high-performance glass with superior heat insulation performance has been an optional specification, and it is difficult for general users to understand the significance of the product, and the sales volume does not increase as expected. In some cases, the difference in thermal comfort can be intuitively understood by using the present invention, which can lead to sales promotion of products.

It is a top view which shows one Embodiment of this invention. It is one Embodiment of the mark which shows thermal comfort performance. It is other embodiment of the mark which shows thermal comfort performance. It is a top view which shows other embodiment of this invention. It is a top view which shows other embodiment of this invention.
