Description

Instantaneous electric water boiler {instantaneous hot water generator}

The present invention relates to an instantaneous heating electric boiler, and more particularly, it is possible to control the flow of water directly through the heating element and control the flow rate of the water passing through the heating element, thereby heating the water more efficiently and It relates to an instantaneous heating type electric boiler which lengthens and cuts off the current leaking from the heating element.

In general, regenerative electric boilers heat the water in the tank with an electric heater during late night hours and fill it with rigid polyurethane foam having excellent thermal insulation between the tank and the outer cylinder to keep warm water stored and used for heating.

This regenerative electric boiler is configured to install a heater in the tank through which water passes and to heat only the water introduced into the tank, so that a lot of power is consumed to instantaneously heat a lot of water in the tank, and due to uneven heat transfer, It does not keep the temperature constant.

The heater for electric instant water heater of Korea Utility Model No. 20-219768 reduces the power consumption by heating the flowing water, and equalizes the heat transfer from the heating element to the water.

The heater for the electric instant water heater is connected to the water channel and the water channel partitioned by the partition wall installed in the pipeline, and the heating element is installed in the heating channel to directly heat the water to reduce power consumption.

However, the heater for electric instantaneous water heater is a heating element made up of only the heating element is in direct contact with the water, so that the water is more efficiently used than the one installed in the tank with a heating element equipped with a magnesia filling and heating element in the tank Heat can be heated and the heating element is installed in the heating channel uniformly so that the water is heated in a uniform distribution.However, the heating channel in which the heating element is installed and the channel without the heating element are formed at regular intervals, thus reaching a constant temperature. One water circulates unnecessarily at a constant flow rate and is less efficient than discharging water that has reached a constant temperature.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, heats water more efficiently by directly contacting the heat transfer body with water and controlling the flow rate of water passing through the heat transfer body, and lengthening the heat path through the heat transfer body before and after the heat transfer. The purpose is to provide an instantaneous heating electric boiler that effectively blocks the current leaking from the sieve.

The instantaneous heating electric boiler, the casing of the heat-resistant insulating material which forms a circulating path for the low temperature water introduced into the inlet is heated to the high temperature water to the outlet and the inlet and outlet layers respectively formed in the inlet and the outlet,

A heating element disposed at the center of the casing of the insulating material and forming a heating layer in direct contact with water;

It includes a plurality of partition walls arranged in a zigzag state so as to form first and second insulating layers having a gap smaller than the gap between the heating layer and the gap between the inflow layer and the outflow layer inside the casing of the insulating material on the upper and lower sides of the heat transfer body. .

Here, the casing includes a first casing for forming an inflow layer, a second casing for forming a first insulating layer, a third casing for forming a heating layer, a fourth casing for forming a second insulating layer, and an outlet layer for forming the casing. It is partitioned by the 5th casing, and it is formed so that mutual assembly is possible. In addition, the second and fourth casings of the first and second insulating layers are formed in the same structure, and the first and fifth casings of the inflow layer and the outflow layer are formed in the same structure so as to have component compatibility with each other.

The heat transfer body is not required to have an insulation coating when the first and second insulation layers form a length sufficient to block the leakage current of the heat transfer body, but a coating layer of synthetic resin such as Teflon or fluororesin may be formed on the surface thereof.

As described above, the present invention installs a heating element on the water passing through the inside of the casing, and heats water directly by heat emitted from the heating element, and the gap between the first and second insulating layers is narrower than the gap between the heating layer, the inflow layer, and the outflow layer. By arranging the partitions in the state, the water flow rate is slowed in the heating layer in which the heating element is located to facilitate heat diffusion and heat transfer from the heating element, thereby heating the water more efficiently and lengthening the path of the first and second insulating layers. Increasing the resistance can further reduce the leakage current from the heating element.

Advantages and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description based on the accompanying drawings.

1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an instantaneous heating type electric boiler according to the present invention, the casing (1) made of a heat resistant insulating material, the heat transfer body (3) for heating the water passing through the casing (1), and the inside of the casing (1) It consists of a plurality of partitions 5, 5 forming different temperature distributions and different flow velocity distributions.

First, the casing 1 is preferably formed of an insulating material of synthetic resin so as to be more safe from the electrical leakage from the heat transfer body 3, the inlet port (2) of the low-temperature water inflow (a) on both sides (in Fig. 1) 7) and an outlet 9 through which hot water flows out (b).

The casing 1 is not in a state filled with water for heating, but a circulation in which low temperature water entering the inlet 7 is heated with high temperature water and exits the outlet 9 so as to heat the flowing water. Forming a path.

This circulation path forms several layers having different temperature distributions and different flow velocity distributions, respectively, depending on the positions of the heat transfer body 3 and the partition walls 5 and 5. That is, the casing 1 has an inflow layer 11 at its lower inlet 7 side, an outlet layer 13 at its upper outlet 9 side, and a heating layer 15 at its central portion where the heat transfer body 3 is located. ), A first insulating layer 17 is formed between the inflow layer 11 and the heating layer 15, and a second insulating layer 19 is formed between the outflow layer 13 and the heating layer 15, respectively. have.

Since the inflow layer 11 and the outflow layer 13 are formed at relatively wide intervals (up and down intervals in FIG. 1, hereinafter omitted) in comparison with the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19, the flow rate of inflow and outflow water is slow. To increase the watering capacity and facilitate the discharge of bubbles.

The heating layer 15 is formed at relatively wider intervals than the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 formed at both ends thereof to slow the flow rate, so that the heat diffusion and heat transfer from the heat transfer body 3 to water are carried out. Make it smooth.

In addition, the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 form relatively narrower gaps than the inflow layer 11, the outflow layer 13, and the heating layer 15 so that the water flow rate is relatively fast. Low temperature water is quickly introduced into the heating layer 15 and hot water heated to a constant temperature in the heating layer 15 is no longer heated and quickly exits the outlet layer 13. This flow of water allows for efficient heating as compared to continuously circulating and heating water heated to a constant temperature in the prior art.

A casing (1) in which the inflow layer 11, the first insulation layer 17, the heating layer 15, the second insulation layer 19, and the outflow layer 13 are sequentially formed while going from the bottom to the top. ) Has a vertically symmetrical structure. Thus, the casing 1 is compatible with the inflow layer 11 and the outflow layer 13, and can be disassembled and assembled so that the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 can be interchangeably applied. 4, 5 casings (21, 23, 25, 27, 29).

The first casing 21 forms the inflow layer 11, the second casing 23 forms the first insulating layer 17, and the third casing 25 forms the heating layer 15. The fourth casing 27 forms the second insulating layer 19, and the fifth casing 29 forms the outflow layer 13. The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth casings 21, 23, 25, 27, and 29 are coupled together by interference fit to form the entire casing 1. The coupling structure of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth casings 21, 23, 25, 27, and 29 is not applicable since a conventional sealing structure is applicable.

The heat transfer body 3 is provided in the heating layer 15 of the 3rd casing 25. Here, it is illustrated that the heat transfer body 3 is provided in a two-layer structure. This heat transfer body 3 is provided in direct contact with water without being coated with an insulating material in order to increase the heating efficiency of the water.

The heat transfer body 3 may form a coating layer of synthetic resin such as Teflon or fluorine resin on the surface of the heat transfer body 3 so as to more effectively cope with a short circuit. When a current of 220 V 80 to 90 A is applied to the non-insulating heating element 3, the leakage current is 0.768 mA, but in the case of the heating element 3 coated with synthetic resin on the surface, the leakage current is 0.12 mA. It can be seen that the lower. In either case, it is within the safe range of the human body.

Therefore, this coating layer is not necessarily required as an addition to the leakage current blocking by the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19. The first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 are provided with a plurality of partition walls 5 in a zigzag state so that the insulator 3 can block the leakage current of the insulator even though the insulator 3 is in direct contact with water. In addition, longer paths are formed at narrower intervals than the inflow layer 11 and the outflow layer 13. The narrow and long paths of the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 not only reduce the heat loss in the heating layer 15 by increasing the flow rate, but also reduce the electrical resistance of the water filled in the path. By making it larger, it is more perfectly prepared for the leakage current in the heat-transfer body 3.

Since the contrast with respect to the leakage current of the heat transfer body 3 is most important, in the present embodiment, the heat transfer body 3 itself or the heat transfer body 3 coated with a synthetic resin is directly connected to water, thereby heating the casing 1. Is formed of a synthetic resin material which is a heat resistant insulating material, and the paths of the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 are lengthened to increase the electrical resistance.

And, the outlet 9 is provided with a pump 31 to supply and circulate the hot water to the required place. An overline 33 is connected to the replenishment water tank 35 in the outflow layer 13 to discharge bubbles generated in the casing 1. This make-up water tank 35 is connected to a water source c via a valve 37.

In addition, in order to automatically control the electrodes 39 and 39 for supplying current to the heating element 3, a detection switch (not shown) for detecting water flow is provided inside the casing 1, and the detection switch and the electrode ( 39 and 39 and pump 31 may be connected to a controller (not shown). This configuration can be applied to the one used in the automatic control boiler, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The instantaneous heating electric boiler configured as described above heats low temperature water to high temperature water while forming a circulation path as shown in FIG. 2.

In detail, when the low temperature water is introduced (a) through the inlet 7 by the driving of the pump 31, the low temperature water is filled in the inlet layer 11, and then a plurality of partitions 5 and 5 are provided. It proceeds to the first insulating layer 17 formed of the (). At the same time, the sensing switch senses the water flow to apply a current to the heating element 3 through the electrodes 39 and 39.

The low temperature water going to the first insulating layer 17 has a fast flow rate in the narrow and long first insulating layer 17 (the figure shows that the flow rate is fast and slow with a small number of arrows). ). The low temperature water filled in the narrow and long path of the first insulating layer 17 acts as a strong resistance to the current leaking from the heating element 3 so that the current leaking from the heating element 3 is out of the casing 1. To prevent leakage.

The low temperature water passing through the first insulating layer 17 flows into the heating layer 15 formed at a relatively wider interval than the first insulating layer 17, and thus the flow rate drops. The low temperature water having a relatively slow flow rate compared to the flow rate of the first insulating layer 17 is in direct contact with the heat transfer body 3 while receiving enough heat emitted from the heat transfer body 3 to obtain high temperature water while thermally diffusing and moving the heat. Heated.

The hot water passing through the heating layer 15 has a high flow rate in the narrow and long second insulating layer 19. The hot water filled in the narrow and long path of the second insulating layer 19 acts as a strong resistance to the current leaking from the heat transfer body 3 so that the current leaking from the heat transfer body 3 leaks out of the casing 1. Block the work. That is, the first and second insulating layers 17 and 19 can prevent an electric shock from outside the casing 1 with respect to the current leaking from the heat transfer body 3.

On the other hand, the high temperature water passing through the second insulating layer 19 flows into the outlet layer 13 formed at a relatively wider interval than the second insulating layer 19, the flow rate is lowered. Hot water having a relatively slow flow rate compared to the flow rate of the second insulating layer 19 is discharged through the outlet 9.

As such, the low temperature water is introduced into the inlet 7, the inlet layer 11, the first insulating layer 17, the heating layer 15 of the heat transfer body 3, the second insulating layer 19, and the outflow layer 13. And the hot water is discharged through the outlet 9.

Bubbles generated in this process is supplied to the replenishment water tank 35 through the overline 33 connected to the outlet layer 13 while hot water is discharged to the outlet 19. The wide spacing of the outlets 19 facilitates the discharge of these bubbles more smoothly.

As described above, the present invention installs a heat transfer body on the water passing through the casing of the insulating material and heats the water directly with heat emitted from the heat transfer body, and the gap between the first and second insulating layers is a gap between the heating layer, the inflow layer, and the outflow layer. By arranging the bulkhead in a narrower state to slow the flow rate of water in the heating layer in which the heating element is located, the heating channel is formed at regular intervals so that the water flows at a constant flow rate while continuously heating the hot water at a predetermined temperature. Unlike this, it facilitates heat diffusion and heat transfer from the heat transfer element and discharges hot water heated to a certain temperature without heating any more, further reducing the power consumption and further improving the heating efficiency. To increase the electrical resistance, cut off the leakage current from the heating element, so that the leakage current of the heating element can be There.
