Description:

As can be seen from the presented figures, the object of the present invention is composed of the central structure (1), preferably made of fiberglass, composed by the circular side guides (2), upper cover (3) and lower rail (4). where the tubular feet come from (5).

Between the circular side guides (2) rectangular open spaces are formed where the plates (6) with rectangular openings (7) are fixed to allow the air to be captured. cold. The plates (6) are fitted to the central frame (1) and fixed to it manually by the lugs (8).

Subsequent to the plates (6), being internally to the central structure (1), they are fixed on the hives (9), and these hives are structures with a thickness ranging from 2.54 cm to 20.32 cm (1 inch to 8 inches), composed by intertwined layers of honeycomb cellulose, through which water will flow vertically from top to bottom, causing the air drawn from the outside of the building to cool down by the ventilator. The hives (9) are attached to the plates (6) by the straps (10) which also fix the spongy plates (11), upper and lower than the hives (9), and which has the function of homogeneously distributing the water that irrigates the hives from top to bottom.

The air is cooled by the forced air passing through the fan (12) through the hives (9) containing circulating water, and the fan (12) is driven by the motor with pulley (13), being internally to the fin box ( 14) comprising horizontal (14A) and vertical (14B) fins themselves whose positioning can be done manually or automatically via the motor (15).

The lower rail (4) has a semicircular shape, which runs along the sides and back and forms the reservoir of water to be circulated by the equipment. The reinforcements (16), existing in the four corners, provide greater resistance to the rail (4), which has a trim that allows the water to be removed through the lateral drains. (17), using the solenoid-operated drain valve (18) to periodically clean this lower reservoir.

For irrigation of the hives (9) water is fed from the lower channel (4) to the upper pipes (19) through the pipes (20) through the motor pump assembly (21). The water level in the lower channel (4) is controlled by the float (22) and the electromagnetic sensor (23) triggers the replacement of water by the pipe connected to the building's water pipe, lighting a led on the control panel. to signal the replacement of water.

The upper pipes (19) are interconnected and contain the holes (24) in their lower part that allow the hives to be irrigated (9) homogeneously through the spongy plates (11) which are fixed to them under the upper pipes (19). ).

The control panel (25) has on / off controls, increase or decrease of the fan speed, which allows to control the room temperature, the beehive drying mode and the reservoir cleaning. The positioning of the vertical (14A) and horizontal (14B) fins can also be actuated on the control board (25).

The PLC - Programmable Logic Control panel (26) contains a specific electronic circuitry that allows programming and / or activation of equipment functions: a) on / off according to room temperature programming, b) activates internal washing equipment, for the replacement of circulating water in the equipment by clean water, d) triggers automatic movement of vertical and horizontal fins for positioning as appropriate, e) triggers beehive drying, f) controls equipment speed according to predetermined ambient temperature .

The equipment can be installed close to the building wall and also on roofs, with only a few changes to it, with the central structure (1), rear circular sides (2), top cover (3), bottom rail (4 ), and tubular feet (5) are maintained in both applications.

For the installation of the equipment on building walls, in the front part of the equipment the two circular sides (2) are replaced by the finishing (27) with circular lateral ends provided with a central flap hole (28) from which the base ( 29) used for fixing the fin box (14) and fan assembly (12) and pulley motor (13).

The sides and back remain unchanged containing the plates (6).

Over the lower rail (4) the cap (30) is placed.

For installation of the equipment on building roofs all four sides of the equipment contain the plates (6), and the fan assembly (12) and pulley motor (13) is coupled to the lower base hole (31), with the cover (30) withdrawal. In this way, forced air enters the four sides and is directed into the interior of the ambient through the circular diffuser (32) having side and bottom fins (33), fixed to the bottom base (31) by the piping (34).

As a constructional variant, the side plates 6 are provided with evenly distributed holes 35.

Conclusion:

Thus, the Constructive Disposition in Constant Evaporative Climatizer is subsidized by unprecedented technical and functional characteristics, as can be seen in the attached figures and understood in the descriptive report, thus deserving the legal protection claimed.
