Definitions

  • the conventional apparatus of the type to which this invention is directed is relatively well-known, and generally includes means for introducing compressed air through a heat exchanger which obtains or conducts a heating or cooling medium.
  • the compressed air is generally allowed to expand an expansion chamber which is closed at all but the front or room side thereof, the latter being bounded by a heat exchanger.
  • the uid medium is forced by conventional deflection means to flow past an inner portion of the heat exchanger and outwardly thereof into a room which is to be heated or cooled.
  • a primary object of this invention is to provide a high pressure induction apparatus of the type referred to immediately above, which is particularly characterized by the provision of a distributor duct for deflecting compressed air from an expansion chamber toward and through a heat exchanger into the room which is to be heated or cooled.
  • This latter arrangement provides simplicity of construction and operates at a high degree of efficiency, particularly because the compressed air or other fluid media supplied to the apparatus can spread out in the distributor duct to a maximum degree and, after expansion, issue in a 4calm state through appropriate perforations or similar means toward the heat exchanger.
  • the apparatus is also particularly characterized in the provision of a plurality of ribs which define vertically disposed channels or ducts opening toward the room.
  • the compressed air conducted into each channel is thereby directed or guided by the ribs in an upward flow pattern. Since the channels open toward the room side of the apparatus circulation is unhindered and an effective temperature gradient is obtained relative t0 the liquid -contained in foils or similar heat exchanging means of the heat exchanger.
  • the apparatus of this invention functions in much the same manner of well-known air conditioning convectors, disadvantages of such convectors, such as clogging of heat exchanger grills, is avoided.
  • the apparatus meets both hygienic and physiological requirements of, for example, hospitals and similar institutions.
  • the distributor duct is advantageously provided with nozzles each of which opens into the heat exchanger which is of a U-s'haped transverse cross-section defined by two ribs or flanges .and a back plate.
  • the nozzles and the distributor duct so constructed considerably improve the induction of room air i.e., the introduction of room air into the heat exchanger for subsequent circulation.
  • FIGURE 1 is a transverse cross-sectional view of the high pressure induction apparatus of this invention, and illustrates a chamber and a distributing duct located beneath a heat exchanger;
  • FIGURE 2 is a front elevational view of the apparatus of FIGUR-E 1, and more clearly illustrates the particular construction of the heat exchanger.
  • the novel high pressure induction apparatus of this invention is generally designated by the reference character 1, and is capable of cit-her heating or cooling rooms by means of compressed air or similar media which is employed as the convection carrier.
  • the apparatus 1 is substantially constructed of three components, namely, a supply duct 2 having an inlet 3, a distributor duct 4 positioned forwardly of the duct 2, and a heat exchanger 5 arranged above the distributor duct 4.
  • the inlet or supply duct 2 also functions to expand the compressed air and includes an aperture 6 in a forward wall (unnumbered) thereof which is of a size complementary to that of an aperture 7 formed in a rear wall (also unnumbered) of the distributor duct 4.
  • the distributor duct 4 is completely closed except for the aperture 7 and a plurality of upwardly directed nozzles 8.
  • the heat exchanger 5 positioned above the duct 4 includes a closed back plate 9 from which project a plurality of hollow vertically extending ribs 10. A heating or lcooling medium flows through the ribs 10, and for this reason the ribs are connected to each other by longitudinally disposed manifolds 11 and 12 formed in the plate 9.
  • the entrance port 13 is connected to the manifold 12 while an outlet port 14 is connected to the manifold 11.
  • the heat exchanger 5 also includes relatively narrow U-shaped channels 15 directed toward a room 16 between adjacent pairs of ribs 10.
  • the distributor duct 4 may also include at an upper portion a collecting tray 17 for condensation from the heat exchanger 5 and an outlet 25 for conducting condensation to a suitable reservoir (not shown).
  • the heat exchanger 5 is supported in part by the duct 2 resting upon a flange 19 of a frame 18 which includes an upstanding flange 20.
  • the holders or brackets 21 are fastened to the vertical flange 20 and include flanges 22 which are slidably received in straps 23 fixed to the plate 9 of the heat exchanger 5.
  • the heat exchanger 5 is additionally supported in spaced relationship to the vertical flange 20 by a bolt (or bolts) 24 screw threaded into apertures of the flange 20 and provided with similar anges 22 received in straps 23 ⁇ carried by the rear plate 9 of the heat exchanger 5. This construction maintains the heat exchanger 5 in unsupported suspended relationship above both the distributor duct 4 and the supply duct 2, and permits both the simplification of installation and removal of the apparatus.
  • the distributor duct 4 can also be easily removed from the supply duct 2 after the release of the threaded bolts 24 to facilitate the cleaning of the apparatus interior. While only a single bracket 21 and a single bolt 24 are illustrated in FIGURE l of the drawing, it is to be understood that more or less than this number may be provided as desired, but in any case the heat exchanger 5 is re- 3 moved from its mounting by merely lifting the same upwardly as viewed in FIGURES 1 and 2 until the straps 23 are free of the fianges 2.2. The ease of so removing the heat exchanger 5 is particularly important in hospitals and similar institutions requiring high standards of sanitation.
  • An induction apparatus for controlling the temperature in a room comprising (a) a heat exchanger means including a plurality of hollow, generally upright ribs forming a diffusing surface having open-sided channels which open outwardly to the room to provide both lradiant and convection heat exchange effects to the room,
  • a distributor duct disposed below the heat exchanger means and including means for directing a flow of primary air upwardly along said open-sided channels to cause a secondary flow of air from the room and air turbulence along said open-sided channels, and
  • (d) means supplying compressed air to the distributor duct to provide air for the primary air flow.
  • the directing means includes a plurality of individual means associated with each channel for directing the air upwardly in each channel.
  • said heat exchanger includes spaced front and rear plates defining a chamber for the heat exchange media therebetween, said circulating means being in fluid communication with said chamber through said rear plate, and said front plate being of a generally corrugated configuration to define said ribs which are directed away from said rear plate.
  • said heat exchanger is a component separate from and unconnected to said distributor duct, said heat exchanger includes means for supporting the same above the distributor duct, said supporting means includes a bracket adapted to be secured to a supporting surface, and means forming a slidable connection between said heat exchanger and said bracket for securing and removing said heat exchanger from the bracket in the absence of conventional auxiliary fastening means.
  • the directing -means includes a plurality of nozzles for directing the air from the distributor duct upwardly in each channel.
  • said heat exchanger includes a chamber defined in part by spaced front and rear wall portions, said circulating means being in fluid communication with said chamber through said rear wall portion, and said front wall portion being of a corrugated configuration thereby defining said ribs and channels.
