In addition, it is possible to ensure the stability of boiling, as well as to display the operation of the display on the remote controllers so that the user can easily recognize whether the operation of the boiler and whether the valve is open or closed. will be.

Recently, a hot water / heating system has been developed and widely used to perform heating / hot water for several rooms using a single boiler. Such a boiler is a multi-remote control, and the main remote control is used for heating / hot water operation and setting. In addition, a number of sub-remote controllers installed in the kitchen or other rooms can be displayed including operation and setting for heating.The main control unit in the boiler and the sub-remote control unit in each room have heating pipes and boilers in each room. Opening and closing of several valves provided between the heating water outlets of the main body, and each chamber control unit for transmitting and receiving the state between the remote control is provided.

Therefore, the user can turn on / off and set the temperature of the heating / hot water for the whole through the main remote control, and the heating in the corresponding room through the sub remote control of each room while the main remote control is kept on. Can be arbitrarily set and on / off control.

However, the conventional hot water / heating system has a problem in that the hot water / heating for each room can be turned on / off by the sub-remote remote control only when the boiler is turned on through the main remote controller (that is, the boiler via the main remote controller). Has a problem that the boiler cannot be operated by the sub-remote control room of the room), and when the boiler is turned on / off by the sub-remote control room of the room, there is no indication on the sub-remote controller to see whether the actual boiler is on or off. In addition, since the boiler is operated even if only one of several sub-remote controllers is turned on, in order to stop the operation of the boiler when going out, it is inconvenient to operate all sub-remote controllers installed in each room in the off mode. Boiler error information is not available in each room sub remote control. There is a problem that the abnormal state of the boiler is unknown.

In addition, it is configured to control ON / OFF valves of each chamber separately from the boiler control unit separately from the boiler, and there is a problem that the boiler needs to be re-operated. It is configured so that there is a problem in stability due to boiler boiling problems.

When the valve of the room is opened, the main control unit 2 performs the boiler operation to ignite the burner through the electric appliance driving unit 25, and compares the heating set temperature with the tapping temperature and controls the burner on / off. Automatically adjusting the heating temperature;

As described above, when the boiler operation off instruction is input from the main remote controller 1 while the boiler is operating, if any, the chamber controller 3 turns off all the sub-remote controllers 4 of each chamber, and the main controller 2 ) Stops the operation of the boiler, and then in the chamber control unit (3) to close and wait all the valves (7) of each chamber;

As a result of the above detection, if there is no boiler operation off instruction from the main remote control unit 1, the sub-remote control unit 4 of each room detects whether an operation off instruction is input. All of the off, the main control unit 2, after stopping the operation of the boiler in the chamber control unit 3 again closing all the valves 7 of each room and waiting; characterized in that consisting of.

Referring to the effect of the present invention made of such a configuration and steps as follows.

First, when a user inputs various key signals according to heating and hot water operation through the operation instruction input unit 11 of the main remote controller 1, the signals are displayed on the main display unit 13 through the first central processing unit 12. At the same time, it is transmitted to the main control unit 2 and each chamber control unit 3 via the first transmission / reception unit 14 to control the operation and opening and closing of the boiler and the valve.

At this time, the main display unit 13 of the main remote controller 1, the on / off state, the set temperature and the tapping temperature of the boiler transmitted through each room control unit 3 and the main control unit 2 as well as the user key input signal described above. And the like.

In addition, the second and third transceivers 21 and 22 of the main controller 2 smoothly perform data communication with the main remote controller 1 and each room controller 3, and the tapping temperature detector 23 The second central processing unit detects the tapping temperature of the heating water input through the temperature sensor, not shown, and performs all control functions according to the boiler starting and stopping by executing a predetermined program using various data inputted from each part ( In the electric appliance driving unit 25 under the control of 24), the electric appliances such as burners, three-way valves, and pumps, which are electric appliances for starting and stopping the boiler, are directly controlled.

In addition, the fourth and fifth transmitting and receiving units 31 and 32 in each room control unit 3 facilitate data communication with the main control unit 2 and each room sub-remote controller 4, and input from each unit. The output of the third central processing unit 34 is performed by the valve driving unit 33 under the control of the third central processing unit 34 which generates a predetermined control signal according to the result after executing a predetermined program using various data. In response to the signal to perform the opening and closing function of the valve (7) installed between the boiler body and the heating pipe (5) of each room.

On the other hand, the data storage unit 35 in each chamber control unit 4, the boiler on / off state, the set temperature that is the previous information on the sub-ribocon (4) of each chamber input through the third central processing unit 34 It stores the valve opening and closing, the timer operation, and the like, and outputs the data when the third central processing unit 34 requests it to be used for heating and hot water operation.

Then, when the user inputs various key signals according to the heating and hot water operation of the corresponding room through the operation instruction input unit 41 of the sub remote controller 4 installed in each room, the signal is transmitted through the fourth central processing unit 42. Simultaneously displayed on the sub display unit 43, the sub-display unit 43 is transferred to the chamber control unit 3 and the main control unit 2 via the sixth transceiver unit 44 to control the operation and opening and closing of the boiler and the valve.

In addition, the temperature detector 45 in the sub-remote controller 4 detects the temperature of each room and displays the temperature on the sub display unit 43 through the fourth central processing unit 42 and passes through the sixth transmission / reception unit 44. Transfer to each control unit (3) and the main control unit (2) to control the operation and opening and closing of the boiler and the valve through the temperature comparison during operation of the boiler.

At this time, the sub display unit 43 of the sub remote controller 4 displays the on / off state of the boiler, the set temperature of each room, the room temperature, the on / off state of the valve, and the timer operation.

On the other hand, the second central processing unit 24 in the main control unit 2 receives the output signals of the respective room sub-remote controllers 4 through the respective room control unit 2 during normal operation (while the boiler is not operating). It continuously detects whether a boiler operation instruction signal is input (that is, the user wants to operate the boiler by operating one of several sub-remote controllers 4 installed in each room).

If there is no operation instruction in any of the sub-remote controllers 4 as a result of the detection as described above, it is continuously detected whether the boiler operation instruction signal is input through the main remote controller 1.

As such, when the user confirms the operation state through the main remote controller 1 as a result of checking the output state of the main remote controller 1 by the main control unit 2, the main control unit 2 transmits it to each room control unit 3. Since it is recognized by the third central processing unit 34 in the chamber control unit 3 and receives the output signal of the data storage unit 35, whether it was in the on state in any of the chambers before the boiler was turned off. You will be confirmed.

As a result of this check, if none of the chambers were previously turned on, even if the operation instruction was input from the main remote controller 1, the boiler enters the standby state without starting the boiler, which means that all the valves 7 in each chamber are closed. This is to prevent the boiler because boiling occurs in the boiler body when the boiler is operated in.

On the other hand, as a result of the above detection, any one of the sub-remote controllers 4 in each room has a boiler operation instruction or the state of the previous sub-remote controllers 4 is detected in a state in which the operation instruction is made from the main remote controller 1. As a result, if any room is in the ON state, the main control unit 2 receives the output signal of the temperature detector 45 installed in the sub remote control 4 of the room, and the present temperature of each room is higher than the set temperature of each room. Awareness is detected.

As a result of the detection, if the current room temperature is above the set temperature, the heating is sufficiently performed. If the room temperature is less than that, the valve of the chamber is closed. If the chamber temperature is less than that, the valve of the chamber is opened. After the boiler is operated, the heating set temperature set by the user and the tapping temperature of the heating water detected by the tapping temperature detector 23 are compared with each other, and the burner is turned on / off to control the heating temperature to reach the set temperature. Combustion and extinguishing will be repeated.

In addition, while the boiler is operating as described above, the main controller 2 continuously detects whether the boiler operation off instruction is input from the main remote controller 1, but if the user stops the operation of the boiler, In the case of the operation, first, the sub-control unit 4 of each room is turned off by the respective room control unit 3, and then the main control unit 2 stops the operation of the boiler, and then the respective room control unit 3 again. The valve 7 of all will be closed.

On the other hand, if there is no boiler operation off instruction of the user through the main remote control 1 as a result of the detection as described above, it is determined whether the operation off instruction is input from all the sub remote control 4 because the user turns off all the sub-remote controllers 4 in each room. Will be detected.

As a result, when the operation off signal is input to all the sub-remote controllers 4 in each room, the sub-controls 4 in each room are turned off in each chamber control unit 3 and the main control unit 2 stops the operation of the boiler as described above. Subsequently, the chamber control unit 3 again closes all the valves 7 of the chamber.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to control the operation of the boiler from the auxiliary remote control of each room in conjunction with the boiler in each room control, and also to control the sub-remote control of each room from the main remote control connected to the main body. It is possible to solve the invariant according to the control panel. Also, it is possible to secure the convenience of use by distinguishing between the control of each room sub remote controller and the control by the main remote controller. Even if the boiler is shut off because it is possible to ensure the stability of the boiling, it is a very useful invention, such that the user can easily recognize whether the operation of the boiler and the opening and closing state of the valve through each remote control.
