[산업상 이용분야][Industrial use]

본 발명은 자동차의 라디에이터에 있어서, 증기로 변하여 배출되므로 점차 양이 줄어 드는 냉각수를 자동으로 보충하기 위한 보충장치에 대한 것이다.The present invention relates to a replenishment device for automatically replenishing a cooling water gradually reduced in quantity because it turns into steam in the radiator of the automobile.

[종래의 기술][Prior art]

일반적으로 자동차의 냉각수단중 하나인 라디에이터는 자동차의 앞부분에 설치되어 냉각팬으로 냉각수를 냉각시키도록 되어 있으며, 그 속에 냉각수는 고온으로 가열되기 때문에 일부가 증기로 변하여 점차 배출되어 진다.In general, a radiator, which is one of the vehicle's cooling means, is installed at the front of the vehicle to cool the cooling water with a cooling fan, in which the cooling water is heated to a high temperature, and partly turns into steam and is gradually discharged.

종래의 라디에이터(a)는 제3도에서 보는 바와 같이 냉각수가 팽창되었을 때 그 잉여량을 받아 두었다가 부족할 때 다시 공급되게 하는 리저버탱크(b)가 있으나 이 리저버탱트(b)까지도 일일이 점검하지 못하는 것이 사실이다.Conventional radiator (a) has a reservoir tank (b) to receive the surplus when the cooling water is expanded and to be supplied again when it is insufficient, as shown in Figure 3, but not even the reservoir tank (b) It is true.

[종래기술의 문제점][Problems with Prior Art]

따라서 라디에이터 내부의 냉각수는 그 양을 수시로 점검하여 보충해야 하는 일일 점검사항중에 하나임에도 불구하고 대부분의 운전자들(특히 여성 운전자)은 이를 충분히 점검하지 않고 있는 실정이기 때문에 심한 경우 주행중 냉각수의 부족으로 엔진이 과열되어 회복하지 못할 정도로 상하는 일이 있다.Therefore, although the amount of coolant inside the radiator is one of the daily checks to check and replenish the amount from time to time, most drivers (especially female drivers) do not check this sufficiently. This can overheat and go beyond recovery.

[발명이 해결하고자 하는 과제][Problem to Solve Invention]

따라서 본 발명은 상기와 같은 제반 문제점을 감안해 이를 시정 보완하고자 안출한 것으로서 발명의 주된 목적은 라디에이터 내부의 냉각수가 점차 줄어들어 위험 수위에 이르렀을 때 이를 운전자에게 알려 주고, 또 한편으로는 냉각수가 자동적으로 보충되어 운행에 지장이 없도록 하는데 목적이 있는 것이다.Therefore, the present invention has been devised to compensate for the above problems, and the main object of the present invention is to notify the driver when the coolant inside the radiator gradually reaches a dangerous level, and on the other hand, the coolant automatically It is intended to be supplemented so that it does not interfere with the operation.

[과제를 해결하기 위한 수단][Means for solving the problem]

그리고 이를 위한 특징적인 구성은 라디에이터의 내부에 마련하되, 냉각수에 잠겨 있을 때 ON접촉되는 수위감지용 전극봉 스위치와, 상기한 수위감지용 전극봉 스위치가 OFF됨에 따라 작동하는 릴레이, 그리고 상기한 릴레이에 의해 도통되는 발광램프로 이루어진 표시부 및 상기한 릴레이에 의해 작동하는 펌프와 솔레노이드밸브로 이루어진 작동부로 구성하여 전극봉스위치의 단락에 따라 보충수 탱크의 냉각수를 라디에이터에 자동으로 공급하여 줄 수 있도록 하는데 있다.And a characteristic configuration for this is provided by the inside of the radiator, the water level sensing electrode switch that is in contact with the ON when submerged in the coolant, the relay which operates when the water level sensing electrode switch is OFF, and by the relay It consists of a display unit consisting of a light emitting lamp to be turned on and an operating unit consisting of a pump and a solenoid valve operated by the relay, so that the coolant of the supplementary water tank can be automatically supplied to the radiator according to the short circuit of the electrode switch.

[실시예]EXAMPLE

이하 본 발명의 상세한 구성 및 작용효과를 첨부한 도면에 따라 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, the detailed configuration and effect of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

제1도는 본 발명의 실시상태를 보인 사시도로서 라디에이터(1)와 그 일측 상부에 마련된 수위감지용 전극봉스위치(2)를 볼수 있는 바, 이 전극봉스위치(2)는 그 확대도에서 보는 바와 같이 라디에이터(1)의 내부로 돌설되어 냉각수 속에 잠기었을 때 ON되는 스위치이다.Figure 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention can see the radiator 1 and the electrode switch 2 for level detection provided on the upper side of the bar, the electrode switch 2 is a radiator as shown in the enlarged view This switch is turned on when it is immersed in (1) and submerged in the coolant.

또한 라디에이터(1)의 상부로는 솔레노이드 밸브(31)와 여기에 연결된 펌프(32), 그리고 펌프(32)까지 호스(33)로 연결된 보충수 탱크(4)가 구비되어 있는 것이다.In addition, the upper part of the radiator 1 is provided with a solenoid valve 31, a pump 32 connected thereto, and a supplemental water tank 4 connected to the pump 32 by a hose 33.

또한 회로도인 제2도에서 보듯이 전극봉스위치(2)는 릴레이(5)와 연결되어 있고, 릴레이(5)의 접점(51)은 발광램프(7), 그리고 솔레노이드 밸브(31)와 펌프(32)로 이루어진 작동부(3)로 연결되어 있으며, 작동부(3)와 펌프(32)의 사이에는 타이머(6)를 개입시키는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, as shown in FIG. 2 of the circuit diagram, the electrode switch 2 is connected to the relay 5, and the contact 51 of the relay 5 is the light emitting lamp 7, the solenoid valve 31, and the pump 32. It is connected to the operating unit (3) consisting of, it is preferable to intervene the timer (6) between the operating unit (3) and the pump (32).

다음은 상기와 같이 구성된 본 발명의 작동상태를 설명한다.The following describes the operating state of the present invention configured as described above.

상기한 솔레노이드 밸브(31)와 펌프(32)는 전극봉스위치(2)가 OFF됨에 따라 작동한다.The solenoid valve 31 and the pump 32 operate as the electrode switch 2 is turned off.

즉, 라디에이터(1)내부의 냉각수가 점차 줄어 들어 냉각에 필요한 최소량의 냉각수만이 남았을 때 상기한 전극봉스위치(2)가 OFF되며, 이 전극봉스위치(2)가 OFF되면 릴레이(5)가 작동하고, 릴레이(5)의 작동에 따라 접점(51)이 연결되면 솔레노이드 밸브(31)와 펌프(32)가 작동하며, 이와 동시에 발광램프(7)가 점등된다.That is, when the coolant inside the radiator 1 gradually decreases and only the minimum amount of coolant left for cooling remains, the electrode switch 2 is turned off. When the electrode switch 2 is turned off, the relay 5 is operated. When the contact 51 is connected according to the operation of the relay 5, the solenoid valve 31 and the pump 32 operate, and at the same time, the light emitting lamp 7 is turned on.

따라서 솔레노이드 밸브(31)가 열림과 동시에 펌프(32)는 보충수탱크(4)의 물을 라디에이터(1)로 보내 보충하게 되는, 이때의 펌프(32)는 작동부(3)와 릴레이(5)의 사이에 개입시킨 타이머(6)에 의해 무조건 일정시간 동안 가동된 후 정지한다.Therefore, the solenoid valve 31 is opened and at the same time the pump 32 replenishes the water of the replenishment tank 4 by sending it to the radiator 1. At this time, the pump 32 has the operating part 3 and the relay 5. By the timer 6 intervened between the ()) is unconditionally started for a certain time and then stopped.

왜냐하면 냉각수가 전극봉스위치(2)까지 내려 갔을 때 채워야 하는 냉각수의 양은 라디에이터(1)의 용량에 따라 미리 파악되어 있기 때문에 그 보충양을 다 채울 수 있는 동안 만큼 타이머(6)의 작동시간을 설정해 두는 것이다.Because the amount of coolant to be filled when the coolant is lowered to the electrode switch (2) is known in advance according to the capacity of the radiator (1), the operating time of the timer (6) is set as long as the refill amount can be filled. will be.

반면에 전극봉스위치(2)가 ON되면 릴레이(5)는 접점(51)이 떨어져 작동부(3)와 발광램프(7)의 전원을 단락시켜 비상사태가 끝났음을 알리는 것이다.On the other hand, when the electrode switch 2 is turned on, the relay 5 is disconnected from the contact 51 to short-circuit the power supply of the operating unit 3 and the light emitting lamp 7 to indicate that the emergency is over.

[작용효과][Effect]

이상에서 자세히 설명한 바와 같은 본 발명은 운전자가 냉각수의 양을 일일이 점검하지 않는다 하더라도 냉각수의 잔류량이 전극봉스위치(2)에 의해 감지되면 자동적으로 솔레노이드 밸브(31)와 펌프(32)로 이루어진 작동부(3)가 가동하여 냉각수를 충분히 보충하므로 종래와 같이 엔진이 심하게 상하는 최악의 상태를 미연에 방지할 수 있는 것이다.According to the present invention as described in detail above, even if the driver does not check the amount of coolant one by one, when the residual amount of coolant is sensed by the electrode switch 2, the operation unit consisting of the solenoid valve 31 and the pump 32 ( 3) is operated to replenish the coolant sufficiently, thereby preventing the worst state in which the engine is badly damaged as in the prior art.
