Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain sufficient heating without disturbing office work by providing a face type heating portion in a thin unit having a height and a depth approximately same as those of a desk. SOLUTION: This unit has external dimensions of a width(W), a depth(D) and a height(H). A face type heating portion 11 is provided in a face of the unit. The width(W) is preferred to be made as small as possible as far as the face type heating portion 11 can be installed. The depth(D) and the height(H) are preferred to be made approximately same as those of a desk. The underfoot heating unit 10 can be provided in each of the face type heating portions 11. To install the underfoot heating unit 10, the underfoot heating unit 10 is installed in such a manner as to be sandwiched between the desks 20, 20. Because the underfoot heating unit 10 has the depth(D) and the height(H) same as those of the desks, difference in height is not created between the desks 20 and the unit 10.

2. Description of the Related Art In the office, a ceiling blow-out type air conditioning system is generally used. In this case, since the air conditioning is not spread around the feet of the desk and the feet are cold, conventionally, a blanket or the like is put on the feet. However, if you put a blanket on your feet, you will not get enough heating, and if you put an electric heater on your feet, the electric heater will get in the way. Therefore, there was a problem that it interfered with the office work.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a foot heating unit of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing an essential part of a foot heating unit of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is an essential part of another foot heating unit of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a side view showing a state in which the foot heating unit of the present invention is installed.

The foot heating unit 10 of the present invention is shown in a perspective view in FIG. 1 and in a cross-sectional view in FIG. 2 in a unit having outer dimensions of width W, depth D, and height H. The sheet heating unit 11 is provided. Reference numeral 12 is a power cord. The width W is preferably as thin as possible if the sheet heating section 11 can be built therein. The depth D and the height H are substantially the same as the depth and the height of the desk. The planar heating unit 11 may be provided on both sides of the foot heating unit 10, as shown in FIG. 13 is a heat insulating material.

To install the foot heating unit 10 of the present invention, as shown in the side view of FIG. 4, the foot heating unit 10 is placed between the desks 20, 20. The depth D and height H of the foot heating unit 10 are substantially the same as the depth and height of the desk 20, so that the foot heating unit 10 and the desk 20 can be installed without a step.

[0008]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has advantages that it can be installed in an office without disturbing office work and sufficient heating can be obtained at the feet.
