RU30373U1 - DEVICE FOR REMOVING SNOW AND ICE FROM Eaves - Google Patents

Description

The technical result, which consists in eliminating this drawback, is achieved in the proposed device for removing snow and ice from the eaves of the roof, comprising a working heating element fixed to the outer edge of the roof of the building, connected to a source of shadow energy, and heeling elements, in that it contains a heat generator and a coolant transportation pipeline, wherein the working heating element is made in the form of a pipeline fixed to the edge of the eaves of the roof by means of a bracket s with providing thermal contact of the external surface of the heating element with the lower surface of the eaves overhang of the roof, while the working heating element is connected through the pipeline transporting the coolant to the heat generator.

The technical result is also achieved by the fact that the heat generator is installed in the basement of the building, and the heat transfer pipe is laid from the heat generator to the working heating element inside the building, and by the fact that the heat generator is installed outside the building, and the heat transfer pipe is laid from the heat generator to the working heating element from the outside buildings with thermal insulation.

In addition, the elimination of the disadvantages of the prototype is ensured by the fact that the heat generator contains a central heating radiator located in a sealed heat-insulated container, in the lower part of which there is an air intake, and in the upper part there is an exhaust pipe connected to the heat transfer pipeline.

At the same time, the achievement of the indicated technical result is ensured by the fact that the heat generator is installed in the attic of the building and contains an electric heating element and a fan connected to the heat transfer pipe, and the heat generator is installed on the car and is connected to the heat transfer pipe by means of a flexible sleeve.

To ensure continuous movement of the carrier (warm air), the device contains exhaust pipes installed along the roof eaves along the working heating element.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated by drawings, where:

in FIG. 1 shows a general view of a building with a working heating element installed on the eaves overhang;

-Fig. 2 illustrates the first embodiment of the device with convection movement of the heat carrier from the heat generator installed in the basement of the building;

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of a device with convection movement of a heat carrier from a heat generator installed outside the building;

FIG. 4 shows a third embodiment of a device design with forced movement of a heat carrier from a heat generator installed in the attic of a building;

FIG. 5 shows the design of the device with the forced movement of the coolant from the heat generator installed on the car.

The device (Fig. 1 - Fig. 5) contains a working heating element made in the form of a pipe I with exhaust pipes 2, fixed with brackets 3 on the edge of the eaves overhang 4 of the roof of the building 5 and connected with the help of the pipeline 6 transporting the coolant with a stationary 7 or mobile 8 (Fig. 5) heat generators.

The flow of coolant (for example, heated air) from the heat generator (7, 8) to the working heating element 1 can be carried out either by natural convection or by force using a fan 9 (Fig. 4, 5).

The pipeline 6 transporting the coolant can be placed both inside the building (Fig. 2) and outside (Fig 3), while it is provided with thermal insulation 10 from heat loss to the environment.

The stationary heat generator 7 is a sealed heat-insulated container 11 with an inlet air intake 12 and an exhaust pipe 13 for connection with a heat transfer pipe 6.

Inside the container And there is a radiator 14 of the central (water) heating of the building (Fig. 2), or an electric heating element 15 (Fig. 4,5).

To implement the convection method of transporting heated air, a stationary tenogenerator 7 must be located at a lower level than the working pipe, for example, in the basement 16 (Fig. 2)

When implementing the forced transportation of heated air, the heat generator 7 may be located, for example, in the attic 17 of the building 5.

To use the mobile heat generator 8 with a flexible sleeve 18, the pipeline 6 for transporting the coolant has an inlet pipe 19. Mobile heat generator 8 installed in the car 20 (Fig. 5).

The device operates as follows.

The proposed device is used periodically in the winter or spring, when a significant layer of snow accumulates on the roof of the buildings and ice forms that threaten the life and health of people.

In the designs illustrated in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the heat carrier (air) is heated using a central (water) heating radiator 7 located inside the container 11.

The air intake is carried out by the air intake 12, and the heated air is transferred to the working heating element 1 through a heat transfer pipe 6 connected to the exhaust pipe 13.

The movement of the coolant is carried out by natural convection.

At the same time, the edge of the cornice 4 is heated, snow or ice (icicles) thaw and tear down, where safety precautions are taken in advance.

In the designs illustrated in FIG. 4 and 5, the heat carrier (air) is heated with the help of an electric heater 15 connected to a power source (not shown in the drawings) and a fan 9, which pumps heated air directly or through a flexible sleeve 18 into the heat carrier transport pipe 6 and further into working heating element 1.

The electric heater 15 and fan 9 are turned on from the stationary control panel in the building 5 where it is installed, or from the central panel in the control room (not shown in the drawings).

When using a car 20 (Fig. 5), on which a mobile heat generator is installed, many buildings can be serviced in turn.

For the industrial implementation of the proposed technical solution does not require significant reconstruction of roofs or buildings. As structural elements, conventional pipelines of the required cross section with thermal insulation 10 for pipeline 6 are used. The electric heater 15 is calculated for the required heating power taking into account the length of the edge of the roof cornice, and the scooter 9 is selected based on the required flow rate of the heat carrier (air), ensuring its heating of the roof edge to a temperature slightly higher than the melting temperature of ice and snow.
