Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a cooling garment for a cooling device that uses volatile gas as a refrigerant.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In the past, there has been a demand for a cooling device that protects a driver from a high temperature atmosphere in motor sports, and the applicant of the present invention has proposed a cooling device that blows volatile gas as a refrigerant to the cooling device to reduce the output loss of an automobile. In order to reduce the size, we devised a structure that is lightweight and that can supply the volatile medium in a stable manner regardless of the temperature atmosphere to reliably cool the cooling unit to the adjusted value.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 There has been a demand for a highly efficient cooling garment that is used by connecting to the cooling device. The present invention has been made in view of the above demands, and provides a cooling suit useful for motor sports as well as a cooling garment for a cooling device which is useful as a partial cooling tool for various other sports and high heat environment work. It is intended to be provided.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The cooling garment for a cooling device according to the present invention comprises one or more pressure resistant flexible pipes on the surface of various sports clothes such as motor sports or various work clothes, or between cloths for clothing. The pipe is arranged so as to cover the surface of the clothes, and a refrigerant introduction coupler is formed at one end of the pipe to connect to the end of the volatile refrigerant supply pipe of the cooling device, and the other end is opened to the atmosphere to open to the atmosphere. The purpose of this is to make a large number of fine holes over the entire length of the pressure-resistant flexible pipe and to keep the position of the refrigerant introduction coupler at a level lower than the discharge port. It is preferable to configure.

[0005]

[Action]

 In the above configuration, the highly volatile refrigerant supplied from the refrigerant introduction coupler is depressurized and evaporated when passing through the pressure resistant flexible pipe. The heat of vaporization that accompanies this evaporation cools the pressure-resistant flexible pipe, and also cools the clothes along the pipe, cooling the wearer's body.

The cooling part is configured in the upper half of the garment 50, and the pressure-resistant flexible pipe 51 is arranged between the fire-resistant skin material 52 and the hygroscopic inner skin material 53, and is provided on the left and right sides of the front body and the back body, respectively. Books are provided one by one.

Each pressure-resistant flexible pipe 51 has one end opened at the waist and constitutes a medium introduction coupler 54 for connecting to the end of the cooling medium supply pipe 2 of the cooling / cooling apparatus 1 described later. It is arranged along the body to the left and right while meandering to the left and right, and a discharge port 55 that is open to the atmosphere is formed at the shoulder. Further, the pressure-resistant flexible pipe 51 is provided with a large number of fine holes 56, 56 ... Perforated over the entire length thereof, so that gas slightly flows out due to a pressure difference.

Reference numeral 57 is a diffusion layer composed of a knitted mesh plate made of metallic fine wires arranged so as to be sandwiched from both sides of the pressure resistant flexible pipe 51, which forms a fine diffusion space and prevents bending and stretching of clothes. It has no flexibility.

Next, a cooling device used for the cooling garment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

The container casing 3 of the cooling / cooling device 1 is made of a low-foam urethane resin having a high heat insulating property, and a cylinder mounting recess 5 into which a cylindrical cooling medium cylinder 4 is inserted is inclined at an angle of about 30 degrees in a central portion. It is drilled at an angle.

A well-known open-can valve 7 is fixed to the inner end of the cylinder mounting recess 5 so as to be airtightly connected to a connecting screw 6 screwed to the mouth of the cooling medium cylinder 4. Therefore, the can opening valve 8 is projected from the can opening valve 7 to the front end of the housing 3, and the can opening valve 7 is opened and closed by the rotating operation of the can opening shaft 8. An output side pipe 9 and a can cooling side pipe 10 are connected to the can open valve 7 via solenoid valves 11 and 12, respectively, and the output side pipe 9 is led out of the device casing 3 by a pressure resistant flexible hose. , The coupler 13 is connected to the tip. Further, the output side pipe 9 is opened to an annular bore 15 formed on the outer periphery of the cooling plate 14 fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder mounting recess 5 and communicates with the can cooling nozzle 16.

Reference numeral 17 denotes a central control circuit which is housed inside the housing 3 and is driven by a dry battery 19 arranged in a battery box 18 with an opening / closing lid which is also formed on the side surface of the housing 3, and the cooling plate The solenoid valve 12 is controlled to be opened / closed by temperature information from a temperature sensor 20 fixed to 14 to control the blowing of the cooling medium from the can cooling nozzle 16, and a jack 21 fixed to the front of the casing 3 is used. Is connected to an external controller 22, and the controller 22 adjusts the ON / OFF timing of the intermittent switching circuit built in the central control circuit 17 to drive the solenoid valve 11 to open and close. The central control circuit 17 is connected to the dry battery 19 via the power switch 23.

Further, reference numeral 24 is a heat insulating lid made of a low-foam urethane resin which can be opened and closed like a hinge and covers the bottom of the cooling medium cylinder 4 inserted in the cylinder mounting recess 5.

As shown in FIG. 1, the cooling device 1 having the above-described structure is connected to the medium introducing coupler 54 via the cooling medium supply pipe 2, and the cooling device 1 is worn on the waist for use. You can also

The following fluorocarbon can be used as the non-flammable highly volatile cooling medium used for the cooling medium cylinder 4. HCFC-22, HCFC-123, HCFC-124, HFC-125, HFC-134a, HCFC-141b, HCFC-142b, HFC-152a, etc. In particular, as the cooling medium of the present invention, chlorodifluoromethane (CHCL F2) from DuPont called "R-22" is useful.

In the cooling device 1 having the above-described configuration, the cooling medium cylinder 4 filled with the cooling medium is inserted into the cylinder mounting recess 5, and the peripheral wall is kept in contact with the cooling plate 14 to open the connecting screw 6 to open the can valve. 7 is airtightly screwed, the heat insulating cap 24 is fitted to the protruding bottom portion of the cooling medium cylinder 4, and then the can open shaft 8 is rotated to operate the solenoid valves 11 and 12 of both pipes 9 and 10. The structure is such that the cooling medium itself is extracted by the vaporization pressure (8 Kg / cm ² ° C). Therefore, when the solenoid valves 11 and 12 are instantaneously opened by the central control circuit 17, the liquid cooling medium is spotwise supplied to the cooling back side pipe 9 or the can cooling side pipe 10 by the pressure.

The cooling medium supplied to the cooling garment 2 through the output side pipe 9 is controlled by the solenoid valve 11 according to the adjusting operation of the controller 22 and the intermittent interval control from the central control circuit 17 based on the temperature information from the cooling section temperature sensor 36. The pressure-resistant flexible pipe 51 is repeatedly opened, and is discharged to the diffusion layer 57 from the numerous fine holes 56, 56 of the pressure-resistant flexible pipe 51. Since the diffusion layer 57 is composed of a knitted mesh plate of fine metal wires, the cooling medium of the liquid discharged to the portion rapidly permeates into the diffusion space by the capillary phenomenon, and at the same time, due to the rapid volatility of the cooling medium. Absorbs heat of vaporization.

The heat of vaporization cools the portion in contact with the diffusion layer 57, and the gasified cooling medium is discharged from the cooling garment 2 to the atmosphere through the discharge port 55. Therefore, the degree of cooling is determined by the repeated discharge speed (interval interval length) of the cooling medium adjusted by the controller 22 or the opening degree of the valve.
