Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] Providing wiring equipment that allows visual confirmation of indoor and outdoor temperatures. [Structure] A thermometer 3 having a temperature sensor 4 is incorporated in a wiring device 1 such as a switch and an outlet, and the room temperature (especially a living space) and the outside air temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 4 are constantly displayed by the thermometer 3. [Effect] The temperature in the living space can be visually confirmed by installing the temperature sensor 4 on the inner wall surface or the outer wall surface and constantly displaying the temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 4 by the thermometer 3 incorporated in the wiring fixture 1. By controlling the temperature of the air conditioner to an appropriate temperature, it is possible to prevent various harmful effects of air conditioning. In cold regions, the outside air temperature can be visually checked to prevent adverse effects such as freezing of the water supply, and the greenhouse farmers can easily control the temperature inside the greenhouse.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a wiring device capable of visually confirming indoor and outdoor temperatures.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, there has not yet been proposed a wiring device configured to constantly display the room temperature (particularly the room temperature in the living space) and the outside temperature.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In recent years, with the widespread use of air conditioners, it has been pointed out that energy loss and various health problems due to excessive effectiveness of air conditioning. That is, the air conditioner is configured to set the room temperature to an appropriate temperature, but this set temperature cannot be determined to be the appropriate temperature in the living space. In cold regions, it is necessary to know the outside air temperature in order to prevent adverse effects such as freezing of the water supply, and for house farmers it is necessary to manage the temperature in accordance with the outside temperature.

However, in the conventional wiring equipment, although the room temperature (particularly the room temperature in the living space) and the outside temperature are attached to the wall surface where it is easy to visually confirm, the function of displaying the room temperature and the outside temperature is provided. There was a problem of not having.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a wiring device capable of visually confirming a room temperature or an outside temperature at any time.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention configures a wiring device by incorporating a thermometer equipped with a temperature sensor into a wiring device such as a switch for turning on / off the power supply of an indoor lighting device or an outlet for inserting and connecting a power plug of household electrical equipment, This is a solution to the conventional problems.

[0007]

[Action]

 Install a wiring device with a built-in thermometer on the interior wall surface, and install a temperature sensor at the optimum position for measuring the temperature in the living space or on the exterior wall surface, and measure the room temperature or ambient temperature detected by the sensor. It is always displayed by the total.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is an embedded wiring device, 2 is a switch constituting the wiring device 1, 3 is a thermometer, 4 is a temperature sensor. The room temperature and the outside air temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 4 are constantly displayed by the thermometer 3. Reference numeral 5 denotes a mounting member, to which the switch 2 and the thermometer 3 are fixed by crimping. Reference numeral 6 is a frame body fixed to the mounting bracket 5 with screws, and 7 is a decorative plate fitted to the frame body 6.

To attach the wiring device of the present invention constructed as described above to an indoor wall surface and constantly display the room temperature or the outdoor temperature by a thermometer, as shown in FIG. The switch 2 and the thermometer 3 are connected to the electric wire drawn into the wiring box 8 embedded in the indoor wall surface A, and the temperature sensor 4 is used to detect the temperature in the living space. The sensor is exposed and buried on the outer wall. Next, the mounting bracket 5 is screwed and fixed to the wiring box 8, the frame 6 is screwed and fixed to the mounting bracket 5, and the decorative plate 7 is finally fitted and attached to the frame 6.

The room temperature or the outside air temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 4 is constantly displayed by the thermometer 3. Therefore, by visually confirming this temperature and controlling the temperature of the air conditioner and heater, a comfortable living space can be obtained, and in cold regions, it is possible to prevent adverse effects such as freezing of the water supply. For house farmers, it becomes easier to control the temperature inside the house.

Although the embodiment in which the thermometer 3 having the temperature sensor 4 is incorporated in the embedded switch 2 has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and the embedded switch is not limited thereto. A wiring instrument is constructed by incorporating a thermometer 3 having a temperature sensor 4 in an outlet, and a thermometer 3 having a temperature sensor 4 is incorporated in an exposed switch 2 (or an outlet) as shown in FIG. It is needless to say that the wiring device 1 can be applied to various wiring devices.

[0012]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the present invention, as described above, since the room temperature or the outside air temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 4 is constantly displayed by the thermometer 3, it is possible to visually check this temperature and control the temperature of the air conditioner to make it comfortable. It is possible to obtain a comfortable living space, prevent adverse effects such as freezing of water in cold regions, and make it easier for house farmers to control the temperature inside the house. There is.
