Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent electrode displacement and improve bending strength by holding an electrode between unwoven fabric sheets impregnated with a mixture of a heat storage medium and an electricity conducting substance and by sealing them between non-conductive covering sheets. CONSTITUTION:A multiplicity of electrodes 2 are inserted at specified intervals between nonwoven fabric sheets 1 impregnated with a mixture of a heat storage medium and an electricity conducting substance, and they are sealed between nonconductive covering sheets 3. The mixture of the heat storage medium and the conductive substance is used in the condition of being impregnated into the nonwoven fabric sheets 1 between which are held the electrodes 2. This prevents relative displacement between the electrodes 2 and the nonwoven fabric sheets 1 due to friction, and the bending strength of a plane-shaped heat generator is improved by the reinforcing effect of the nonwoven fabric sheets 1.

A planar heating element formed using a mixture of this heat storage medium and a conductive substance is provided in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-219886. This Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-219886
The planar heating element provided in the publication is a mixture of a heat storage medium made of an organic compound that can change between a molten state and a solid state depending on temperature changes, and a conductive substance made of carbon powder, with two non-conductive coatings on the front and back. It is sealed with a sheet and is formed by embedding electrodes at predetermined intervals in the conductive heating medium of the mixture.A thermoplastic resin sheet (film) is used as the non-conductive covering sheet. The mixture of heat storage medium and conductive material is sealed by heat sealing.

However, with this device, if the heat storage medium melts and becomes fluid due to heating when fusing the non-conductive covering sheet formed of a thermoplastic resin sheet, the electrodes will move in position as the heat storage medium flows. There was a problem that it was easy to shift. This problem of electrode displacement also occurs when a heat storage medium is melted when a planar heating element is used. In addition, the rigidity of this sheet heating element is mainly 1. However, when the non-conductive covering sheet is made of a thermoplastic resin sheet as described above, it is not possible to obtain sufficient bending strength, resulting in sheet heating. The body was prone to bending, which caused problems in handling.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION 1 The planar heating element according to the present invention is produced by impregnating a nonwoven fabric 1 with a mixture of a heat storage medium and a conductive substance, and sandwiching a plurality of electrodes 2 at predetermined intervals between the nonwoven fabric 1. This is characterized in that these are sealed between a non-conductive covering sheet 2. In the present invention, the nonwoven fabric 1 is impregnated with a mixture of a heat storage medium and a conductive substance, and the electrode 2 is sandwiched between the nonwoven fabric 1 so that the electrode 2 and the nonwoven fabric 1 are separated. This is to prevent the electrodes 2 from shifting due to friction, and to increase the bending strength of the planar heating element due to the reinforcing effect of the nonwoven fabric 1.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to Examples. The heat storage medium is made of an organic compound that can change between a molten state and a solid state depending on temperature changes.
As disclosed in Publication No. 219886, higher hydrocarbons having a melting temperature in the range of 20 to 70°C, such as paraffins, polyalkylene glycols, higher alkyl ethers, higher alkyl esters, higher fatty acids, and higher alcohols, are used. Among them, those containing polyethylene glycol as the main component are particularly good.

Further, carbon powder can be used as the conductive material,
Either crystalline carbon such as graphite powder or amorphous carbon such as activated carbon can be used. The mixing ratio of the W heating medium and the conductive substance is an important factor in relation to the heat generation temperature of the planar heating element, and is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-21988.
As disclosed in Publication No. 6, for example, when polyethylene glycol with a melting temperature of 49°C is used as the heat storage medium and graphite powder is used as the conductive material, 40 to 60 parts of graphite powder is added to 120 parts by weight of polyethylene glycol.
It is best to mix at least 1 part.

The mixture of the heat storage medium and the conductive material is used in a state in which the nonwoven fabric 1 is impregnated with the mixture. The nonwoven fabric 1 can be impregnated with the mixture heated and melted. Further, as the electric wire Fj,2, a metal thin plate such as t14M or a copper sheet can be used. Then, a pair (or more than one pair) of electrodes 2, 2 are sandwiched between two upper and lower nonwoven fabrics 1, 1 impregnated with the above mixture in a parallel and separated state, and the entire nonwoven fabric 1°1 is made non-conductive. By covering and sealing with the covering sheet 3, a planar heating element A as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be obtained. The electrode 2 is also covered with the covering sheet 3 along with the nonwoven fabrics 1 and 1, but by passing through the covering sheet 3 and attaching terminal metals 4 to the electrode 2 and connecting electric wires, it is possible to connect the electrode 2 with an alternating current. or direct current can be applied.

Here, a sheet of thermoplastic resin such as polyethylene terephthalate is used as the covering sheet 3, and the covering sheets 3, 3 are overlapped from above and below the nonwoven fabrics 1, 1, and the ends of the covering sheets 3, 3 are heat-sealed. By doing so, the covering sheets 3°3"c and the nonwoven fabrics 1, 1 are sealed. When heat-sealing in this way, it is necessary to heat the ends of the covering sheets to fuse them together, and this The heat storage medium of the mixture impregnated into the nonwoven fabric 1 will be melted by heating, but the heat storage medium is impregnated with the nonwoven fabric 1 and cannot flow freely, and the electrode 2 is not connected to the nonwoven fabric 1. 1, a frictional force acts between the electrode 2 and the nonwoven fabric 1, and there is no fear that the electrode 2 will shift as the heat storage medium melts during heat sealing. 2 is energized to generate a sheet heating element A.
Even when the heat storage medium melts due to heat generation when using the electrode 2, there is no fear that the electrode 2 will shift or move. In addition, since the nonwoven fabric 1 serves as an element constituting the planar heating element A in addition to the covering sheet 3, the bending strength of the planar heating element A is increased by the nonwoven fabric 1. This can prevent the planar heating element A from being easily bent when it is handled.

[Effect of the invention 1 As described above, in the present invention, a nonwoven fabric is impregnated with a mixture of a heat storage medium and a conductive substance, and a plurality of 'K1ff1's are sandwiched between the nonwoven fabrics at predetermined intervals. Since the electrodes are sealed between non-conductive covering sheets, the electrodes are in contact with the non-woven fabric, and even if the heat storage medium melts, the electrodes will not shift due to the frictional force between them and the non-woven fabric. Moreover, the bending strength of the planar heating element can be increased by using the nonwoven fabric, and the planar heating element is not easily bent, making it possible to improve handling properties.
