Abstract
A mat base 1 a of a hot water mat 1 has a quadrilateral shape and is divided by slits 2 into base end portions 3 and 4 and base intermediate portions 5. After heat transfer tape 8 is attached to each of the base intermediate portions 5, a hot water pipe 10 is disposed on the entire mat base 1a. A heat radiation sheet 13 is then attached on the entire top surface of the mat base 1 a. With this construction, the hot water matt 1 can be longitudinally rolled. Also, the thermal efficiency of the hot water mat 1 is improved since heat radiated from the hot water pipe 10, disposed in the pipe grooves, is sufficiently transferred by the heat transfer tape 8 to the heat radiation sheet 13.

- However, the folded portions in the above-described
Patent Literatures 1 to 3 are provided in parallel with a straight pipe portion of a hot water pipe. This makes it difficult to downsize the folded hot water mat in a straight pipe direction of the hot water pipe. - The present invention is made in view of the above-described circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a hot water mat for floor heating that is capable of being downsized with this folding of the hot water mat being in the straight pipe direction of the hot water pipe, by structuring the hot water mat to be able to be folded into the roll state in a direction perpendicular to the straight pipe direction of the hot water pipe, and capable of improving thermal efficiency by transferring heat from a back side of the hot water pipe (inside a groove) to the side of a heat radiation sheet.
- In order to achieve the above-described object, according to a hot water mat of a first aspect of the present invention, a mat base for forming the hot water mat in a quadrilateral shape is formed by a collection of thin base portions (or base pieces), the mat being divided by slits that are in parallel with opposing sides. The base portions include base end portions or pieces located at upper and lower ends and a plurality of base intermediate portions or pieces arranged successively between the base end portions. The base intermediate portions or pieces have straight pipe grooves at regular intervals formed in a direction crossing the base intermediate pieces. The base end portions or pieces have U-turn pipe grooves formed for connecting the straight pipe grooves of the base intermediate pieces. A heat transfer tape, in which U-shaped recessed portions are formed, at locations corresponding to the straight pipe grooves, is attached on a top surface of each of the base intermediate pieces. A hot water pipe is disposed in the pipe grooves formed in the mat base, and a heat radiation sheet is attached entirely on its top surface.
- According to another aspect of the hot water mat for floor heating of the invention, the heat transfer tape and the heat radiation sheet are formed by an aluminum foil.
- According to a further aspect of the hot water mat according to the invention, the slits to divide the mat to provide base intermediate portions or pieces and the base end portions or pieces are formed by cutting off the respective portions or pieces completely, or forming V-shaped or I-shaped slits formed to a certain depth from a back surface of the mat base to form the portions.
- According to a further aspect of the hot water mat according to the invention, the hot water mat can be longitudinally rolled in a roll state from one of the base end pieces with the heat radiation sheet facing inward, by using hinge function of the slits and the heat radiation sheet.
- According to still another aspect of the hot water mat according to the invention, the hot water pipe disposed in the hot water mat is formed by one circuit or two or more circuits.
- According to the present invention as described thus far, the hot water mat can be longitudinally rolled and folded in the roll state from its end in the straight pipe direction of the hot water pipe. Also, as the heat transfer tape is attached to each of the base intermediate portions, it is possible to efficiently transfer heat from the back side of the hot water pipe that is located inside the pipe grooves of the base intermediate portions to the heat radiation sheet side. This makes it possible to improve the thermal efficiency in the hot water mat that can be folded and rolled longitudinally.
- Moreover, as the heat transfer tape is attached individually to each base intermediate portion, the heat transfer tapes can be manufactured and attached to the base intermediate portions with ease. Thus, it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs of the hot water mat.
