Abstract
Description
本発明は、例えば車両の室内を暖房する車両用の暖房装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle heating device that heats the interior of a vehicle, for example.
従来、この種の車両用暖房装置運転席の乗員の膝部側方のセンターコンソールや車室内壁にハロゲンランプからなる輻射ヒータを配設し、乗員の膝部側方から輻射熱を照射するようになっていた(例えば特許文献1参照)。
ところが、上記従来技術では、乗員がズボンを着用して着座している場合、膝部ではズボンと皮膚が接触しているので、輻射による熱がズボンを介して皮膚に伝わり易いが、スネの部分はズボンと皮膚が離れていることが多く、輻射による熱がズボンを介して皮膚に伝わり難く、スネの部分が寒いといった課題があった。 However, in the above prior art, when the occupant is seated wearing trousers, the trousers and the skin are in contact with each other at the knee, so heat from radiation is easily transmitted to the skin through the trousers. In many cases, the pants and the skin are separated from each other, the heat from radiation is difficult to be transmitted to the skin through the pants, and the shin portion is cold.
また、乗員の体格や座席の位置によって、輻射ヒータと足元との距離が変化するので、例えば、足の長い人の場合は、輻射ヒータと足元との距離が長くなり、暖感を得るのに十分な輻射が得られないといった課題があった。 In addition, the distance between the radiant heater and the feet changes depending on the physique of the occupant and the position of the seat.For example, in the case of a person with long legs, the distance between the radiant heater and the feet becomes long, and a warm feeling is obtained. There was a problem that sufficient radiation could not be obtained.
本発明は上記状況に鑑みてなされたもので、乗員がズボンを着用していても足元全体で暖感を得られる車両用暖房装置を提供することを目的とする。また、乗員の体格や座席位置にかかわらず、十分な足元の暖感を得られる車両用暖房装置を提供することを目的とする。 This invention is made | formed in view of the said condition, and it aims at providing the heating apparatus for vehicles which can obtain a warm feeling in the whole leg | foot, even if the passenger | crew wears pants. It is another object of the present invention to provide a vehicle heating device that can obtain a sufficient foot warmth regardless of the occupant's physique and seat position.
前記従来の課題を解決するために、本発明に係る車両用暖房装置は、車室内の内装具に面状発熱体を配設して車室内を暖房する車両用暖房装置であって、前記面状発熱体は座席に着座した乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部に対応した場所に配設され、膝部側よりも足部側に対応した場所の前記面状発熱体の発熱密度を高くした。 In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, a vehicle heating apparatus according to the present invention is a vehicle heating apparatus that heats a vehicle interior by disposing a planar heating element on an interior fixture in the vehicle interior. The heating element is disposed at a location corresponding to at least a part of the foot from the knee of the occupant seated on the seat, and the heat generation density of the planar heating element at a location corresponding to the foot rather than the knee is increased. It was expensive.
本発明の車両用暖房装置は、膝部側よりも足部側に対応した場所の前記面状発熱体の発熱密度を高くしたので、膝部側よりも足部側により大きな輻射熱が印加されるので、スネ部でも輻射熱がズボンを介して皮膚に伝わり易くなり、スネの部分の暖房感が向上するといった効果がある。 In the vehicle heating device of the present invention, the heat generation density of the planar heating element in the place corresponding to the foot side is higher than that of the knee side, so that a larger radiant heat is applied to the foot side than to the knee side. Therefore, the radiant heat is easily transmitted to the skin through the pants even at the shin portion, and the effect of improving the heating feeling of the shin portion is obtained.
第1の発明は、車室内の内装具に面状発熱体を配設して車室内を暖房する車両用暖房装置であって、前記面状発熱体は座席に着座した乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部に対応した場所に配設され、膝部側よりも足部側に対応した場所の前記面状発熱体の発熱密度を高くしたものである。 According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a vehicle heating apparatus for heating a vehicle interior by disposing a planar heating element on an interior fitting in the vehicle interior, wherein the planar heating element is attached to a leg from an occupant's knee seated in the seat. It is disposed at a location corresponding to at least a part of the part, and the heat generation density of the planar heating element at a location corresponding to the foot side is higher than that of the knee side.
第2の発明は、車室内の内装具に面状発熱体を配設して車室内を暖房する車両用暖房装置であって、前記面状発熱体は座席に着座した乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部に対応した場所に配設され、前記面状発熱体と前記乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部との間の距離を検出する距離検出手段と、前記距離検出手段の出力信号に基づき前記面状発熱
体の発熱量を制御する制御手段とを備えたものである。
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a vehicle heating apparatus for heating a vehicle interior by disposing a planar heating element on an interior fitting in the passenger compartment, wherein the planar heating element is extended from a knee portion of an occupant seated in the seat. A distance detecting means disposed at a location corresponding to at least a part of the portion, for detecting a distance between the planar heating element and the occupant's knee to at least a part of the foot; and Control means for controlling the amount of heat generated by the planar heating element based on an output signal.
以下、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照しながら説明する。なお、この実施の形態によって本発明が限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.
(実施の形態1)
本発明の第1の実施の形態を図1、図2を参照して説明する。
(Embodiment 1)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
図1は本発明の第1の実施の形態における車両用暖房装置の外観図である。図中、車室内の運転席側内装具としてのインパネ1の下部に面状発熱体2が配設されている。面状発熱体2は座席に着座した乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部に対応した場所に配設されている。
FIG. 1 is an external view of a vehicle heating apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In the drawing, a
図2は面状発熱体2の外観図である。面状発熱体2は不織布に電気ヒータ線を蛇行配線したものにアルミシートを貼付したもので、インパネ裏側に接着固定される。また、面状発熱体2は、乗員の膝部側に対応した場所S1よりも足部側に対応した場所S2のヒータ線の配線密度を稠密にして発熱密度を高くしてある。
FIG. 2 is an external view of the
上記構成により、面状発熱体2の通電を開始すると、面状発熱体2は、乗員の膝部側よりも足部側に対応した場所のヒータ線の配線密度を稠密にして発熱密度を高くしてあるので、輻射面としてのインパネ表面温度は、図1中の膝部側に対応した場所P1よりも足部側に対応した場所P2の方が高くなる。これにより、乗員の膝部側よりも足部側により大きな輻射熱が印加されるので、スネ部でも輻射熱がズボンを介して皮膚に伝わり易くなり、スネの部分の暖房感が向上するといった効果がある。
With the above configuration, when the energization of the
(実施の形態2)
本発明の第2の実施の形態を図3〜図5を参照して説明する。
(Embodiment 2)
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
図3は本発明の第2の実施の形態における車両用暖房装置の外観図である。図中、車室内の運転席側内装具としてのインパネ1の下部に面状発熱体3と距離検出手段4が配設されている。面状発熱体3は座席に着座した乗員の膝部〜足部の少なくとも一部に対応した場所に配設されている。面状発熱体3は不織布にヒータ線を蛇行配線したものにアルミシートを貼付したもので、インパネ裏側に接着固定される。距離検出手段4は超音波センサやレーザーセンサ等で構成され、予め設定された方向Dに存在する乗員の足元までの距離Xを検出する。
FIG. 3 is an external view of a vehicle heating apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the drawing, a
図4は同装置の動作を表すブロック図である。制御手段5は距離検出手段4の出力信号に基づき面状発熱体3の発熱量を制御する。
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the operation of the apparatus. The control means 5 controls the amount of heat generated by the
上記構成による作用を説明する。図5は、距離検出手段4が検出する距離Xと制御手段5が制御する面状発熱体3の発熱量Qとの関係を表す特性図である。図5により、距離が長い場合は面状発熱体3からの輻射熱が減衰するので面状発熱体3の発熱量を増加し、距離が短い場合は面状発熱体3からの輻射熱が増大するので面状発熱体3の発熱量を減少するよう制御し、距離にかかわらず一定の輻射熱が足元に印加されるようにする。この関係に基づいて、制御手段5は面状発熱体3の発熱量を制御するので、乗員の体格や座席位置にかかわらず十分な足元の暖感を得られるといった効果がある。
The operation of the above configuration will be described. FIG. 5 is a characteristic diagram showing the relationship between the distance X detected by the distance detection means 4 and the heat generation amount Q of the
尚、上記実施の形態では、距離検出手段4は超音波センサやレーザーセンサ等で構成したが、例えば、パワーシート(電動で位置調整ができる座席)の位置検出機能を利用して、パワーシートの位置から面状発熱体と乗員の膝部から足部の少なくとも一部との間の距
離を推定・演算する構成としてもよい。また、座席に配設されたエアバッグ用の体重センサの出力信号に基づき、例えば、「体重が重い」故に「体格大きい」故に「距離が長い」、といった推定・演算を行なう構成としてもよい。
In the above embodiment, the distance detecting means 4 is constituted by an ultrasonic sensor, a laser sensor, or the like. For example, the position detection function of the power seat (electrically adjustable seat) is used to detect the power seat. It is good also as a structure which estimates and calculates the distance between a planar heating element and at least one part of a foot | leg part from a passenger | crew's knee from a position. Further, based on the output signal of the weight sensor for the airbag disposed on the seat, for example, the estimation / calculation may be performed such that “the body is heavy”, “the body is large”, and “the distance is long”.
また、上記実施の形態では、距離を検出して面状発熱体の発熱量を制御する構成としたが、さらに、カーエアコンの室温センサからの出力信号を用いて、室温に応じて面状発熱体の発熱量を制御する構成としてもよい。図6は暖感を得るのに必要な距離X、発熱量Q、室温Tの関係を示す特性図である。図より、例えば、カーエアコンの併用により室温が上昇すれば、面状発熱体の発熱量を低減する。また、同じ室温でも距離が長ければ面状発熱体の発熱量を増加させる。尚、エアコンと輻射を併用しているので、輻射暖房分だけエアコンの設定温度は低減でき、少ないエンジン排熱で省エネ暖房ができる。以上のような制御を行なうことにより、乗員の暖感を得るのに必要な発熱量をよりきめの細かに制御することができ、快適で省エネな暖房が可能となる。 Further, in the above embodiment, the distance is detected to control the amount of heat generated by the sheet heating element. However, the sheet heating according to the room temperature is further generated using the output signal from the room temperature sensor of the car air conditioner. It is good also as a structure which controls the emitted-heat amount of a body. FIG. 6 is a characteristic diagram showing the relationship between the distance X, the calorific value Q, and the room temperature T necessary for obtaining a warm feeling. From the figure, for example, if the room temperature increases due to the combined use of a car air conditioner, the amount of heat generated by the planar heating element is reduced. Further, if the distance is long even at the same room temperature, the amount of heat generated by the planar heating element is increased. Since the air conditioner and radiation are used together, the set temperature of the air conditioner can be reduced by the amount of radiation heating, and energy-saving heating can be performed with less engine exhaust heat. By performing the control as described above, it is possible to more precisely control the amount of heat generated to obtain the warmth of the occupant, thereby enabling comfortable and energy-saving heating.
また、上記実施の形態1、2では、面状発熱体には電気ヒータ線を用いたが、PTC特性のある抵抗体をシート状に成形したヒータを使用してもよく、自己温度制御性があるので、電気ヒータ線タイプで必要なサーモスタットやサーミスタセンサなどが不要となり、薄型化が可能で、インパネ等の車室内の内装具への配設に好適となる。 In the first and second embodiments, an electric heater wire is used as the planar heating element. However, a heater in which a resistor having a PTC characteristic is formed into a sheet shape may be used, and self-temperature controllability is achieved. Therefore, a thermostat, a thermistor sensor, or the like necessary for the electric heater wire type is not required, and the thickness can be reduced, which is suitable for installation in an interior instrument such as an instrument panel.
また、上記実施の形態1、2では、面状発熱体をインパネ下部に設置したが、実施の形態1、2の足元での輻射暖房の代わりに、例えば、内装具として天井トリムに配設して乗員の頭部を輻射暖房する構成にするなど、足元以外の人体の他の部位を輻射暖房する構成としたり、足元と天井といったように複数の輻射暖房を併用する構成として適用してもよい。 In the first and second embodiments, the planar heating element is installed at the lower part of the instrument panel. However, instead of radiant heating at the foot of the first and second embodiments, for example, it is disposed on the ceiling trim as an interior tool. It may be applied as a configuration in which other parts of the human body other than the feet are radiant heated, such as a configuration in which the occupant's head is heated, or a configuration in which a plurality of radiant heatings are used in combination such as the feet and the ceiling. .
以上のように、本発明にかかる車両用暖房装置は、車室内のみならず、航空機や劇場等のさまざまな座席での多様な暖房に展開が可能である。 As described above, the vehicle heating apparatus according to the present invention can be deployed not only in the passenger compartment but also in various types of heating in various seats such as airplanes and theaters.
