Abstract

PURPOSE:To speed up the heating of the room considerably in a temperature control system such as the use of a hot air type heater when the room temperature is below a specific temperature at the start of the apparatus by driving the apparatus at an output exceeding the rated max. within a limited time. CONSTITUTION:A hot air type heater has a program of its operating sequence stored in a microcomputer 1. An output signal from the means for setting the room temperature 3 and one from the means for detecting the room temperature 2, an electronic circuit containing a thermistor, are both inputted to the means for computing the gas quantity 4 in the microcomputer 1. On the basis of the signals representing the set room temperature and the detected room temperature the means for computing the gas quantity 4 finds the quantity of the gas required and outputs the voltage signal accordingly. A means for converting the voltage to the current 5 converts the voltage signal from the means for computing the gas quantity 4 to a signal for a current directed to a proportional valve 13 which controls the fuel feed to the burner. When the room temperature is below a set point at the start of the operation, a means for increasing the current to the proportional supply unit 14 is actuated to increase the current to the proportional valve 13 above the rated output.

To explain its internal configuration, reference numeral 6 constitutes a voltage follower by an operational amplifier, and is connected to a non-inverting input terminal of an operational amplifier 7. 8 is a resistor, and the operational amplifier 7
9 is a bias resistor of the transistor 11, and 10 is a resistor that protects the output terminal by limiting the output current of the gas proportional valve 13.
It generates a voltage proportional to the value of current flowing through the circuit, and is connected to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 7 via a resistor 12. Therefore, the operational amplifier 7 operates as a positive-phase amplifier, and the voltage at the output terminal increases until the voltage at the non-inverting input terminal and the voltage at the inverting input terminal become equal.As a result, the base current of the transistor 11 increases and the proportional valve 13 increases. The current flowing through the circuit increases. Then, the voltage generated across the resistor 10 is the voltage generated across the resistor 12.
When the voltage enters the inverting input terminal via the inverting input terminal and becomes equal to the voltage at the non-inverting input terminal, the voltage at the output terminal stops rising and maintains that state.

Next, 14 is a proportional valve current increasing means, which is connected to the base of the transistor 18 via a resistor 15.degree. 16 based on a signal from the microcomputer 1. A resistor 17 is connected in parallel to the series circuit of resistors 10 and 12 of the voltage-current converting means 5 when the transistor 18 is turned on. As a result, even though the voltage at the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 7 decreases, the current flowing through the gas proportional valve 13 further increases. Reference numeral 19 is a timer means programmed in the microcomputer 1, which operates the proportional valve current increasing means 14 for a predetermined period of time.

After the start of operation, if the room temperature is lower than a predetermined temperature T programmed in the microcomputer 1, the timer means 19 shown in FIG. 1 operates the proportional valve current increasing means 14 to operate the heating output at α.
