[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a heating panel that is used as floor heating by being installed in combination with a floor surface.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a heating panel of this kind, for example, a heating panel or a special effect panel described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-26454.
A heating panel floor and the like described in 1-26455 are proposed. In these conventional heating panels, pipe connection portions are arranged at four corners of the panel, and the heat radiation main pipe and the direct pipe are connected to the pipe connection portions. Then, by appropriately selecting and connecting the heat radiating main pipe and the direct pipe, a heating panel having various patterns is configured, and the radiating main pipe and the direct pipe are selectively connected by connecting these heating panels. I am able to connect.

[0003]

However, in the conventional heating panel, it is necessary to replace all the radiating main pipes to be connected when the heating panel having various patterns is constructed. That is, to change the pattern of the heating panel,
Since the structure is such that the heat radiating mains that form the panel pattern are replaced, it is necessary to prepare many types of heat radiating mains for each different pattern. Moreover, since the heating panel is provided with a direct pipe in addition to the radiating main pipe, it is necessary to combine the radiating main pipe with this direct pipe. As a result, the conventional heating panel is selected and combined from at least 12 types of patterns. Also, to lay a conventional heating panel in a space of four and a half tatami mats, it is not enough to select four types of heating panels from 12 types, and a special type of heating panel that halves the heating panel is used. It is a work to form a panel for heating and combine it with this special heating panel. As described above, it takes an extremely large amount of time and effort to combine the heating panels having the optimum pattern according to the space.

Further, since the shape of the heat radiating main forms the pattern of the heating panel, if this heat radiating main is changed, the positions of the pipe connecting portions at the four corners of the heating panel are also changed. . Then, when there is a change in the distribution route of hot water, such as when a space that is no longer needed for heating occurs in a part of the heating panel that is being used, the heating panel to be changed is used as a basis. , It is necessary to reassemble the combination of surrounding heating panels. Making such changes after the load has been loaded can be a very laborious task.

Therefore, the present invention was created in order to solve the above problems, and by combining only a few types of heating panels, it becomes possible to combine the optimum patterns according to the space, and An object of the present invention is to provide a heating panel that can be arbitrarily changed on a panel-by-panel basis even after the hot water flow path of the heating panel is laid.

[0006]

A pair of inlet / outlet connectors 1 is provided on each of four sides of the rectangular panel P so that hot water flows into and out of the panel from each of the four sides, and a heat dissipation pipe 3 connected to the inlet / outlet connector 1 is provided. The plurality of change connectors 2 for changing the direction of the inside of the panel P are arranged inside the panel, and the input / output connector 1 and the change connector 2 are selected to connect the plurality of heat radiation pipes 3.

The second means is to lay a plurality of panels P in combination so that, in a heating panel to be used as a floor heating panel, the panels P enter and exit on four sides of a square panel P respectively. Two connectors 1 are provided, and four change connectors 2 facing the respective input / output connectors 1 are arranged in the central portion of the panel P at the same distance as the distance between the input / output connectors 1 and these input / output connectors 1 are arranged. The change connector 2 is selected and the four radiating pipes 3 having the same length are detachably connected.

Further, the third means is an input / output connector 1 provided with two pieces on each of the four sides of the rectangular panel P.

This is to select a panel for heating and to connect and combine the input / output connectors of adjacent heating panels.

The fourth means is to insert / extract two connectors on each of the four sides of the panel P having a square shape, and four change connectors 2 provided inside the panel P.
And a heating panel combination method in which four heat radiation pipes 3 having the same length are detachably connected by selecting the input / output connector 1 and the change connector 2, and a connection form of the heat radiation pipe 3 is provided.

[0011]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The heating panel of the present invention is a panel for floor heating by laying a plurality of panels P in combination. This is the heating panel used (see Fig. 4).

The panel P has a rectangular shape such as a square or a rectangle. A pair or a plurality of pairs of inlet / outlet connectors 1 are provided on four sides of the panel P so that hot water can flow into or out of the panel from each of the four sides. Further, a plurality of change connectors 2 are arranged inside the panel so that the direction of the heat radiating pipe 3 connected to each of the input / output connectors 1 can be changed inside the panel P.

The inlet / outlet connector 1 is provided so as to be connectable to the inlet / outlet connector 1 of an adjacent heating panel, and is provided with valves for opening / closing the inlet / outlet directions. Further, the heat radiation pipe 3 is provided so that it can be connected to the change connector 2 located on the opposite side of the adjoining input / output connector 1. Further, the change connector 2 is configured such that the heat radiation pipes 3 can be freely connected in the front, rear, left, and right directions, and is provided with valves for opening and closing the front, back, left, right, and four directions, respectively, and the water radiation pipes are connected in the directions in which the heat radiation pipe 3 is not connected. It is equipped with an automatic water stop mechanism (not shown) that operates so as not to leak.

The panel P shown in FIG. 1 has a square shape, and two input / output connectors 1 are provided on each of four sides of the panel P. Furthermore, at the same distance as the distance between the I / O connectors 1,
Four change connectors 2 facing the respective input / output connectors 1 are arranged in the central portion of the panel P.

By selecting and connecting the inlet / outlet connector 1 and the change connector 2 to the radiator pipe 3, hot water can flow in and out of the inlet / outlet connector 1 on at least one side or two sides of the panel P. (See FIG. 1). At this time, if the radiation pipe 3 is formed of a flexible pipe, the radiation pipe 3
The connection can be changed more easily. Further, instead of the flexible pipe, it is also possible to previously form the linear heat radiation pipe 3 and the bent heat radiation pipe 3 and make these heat radiation pipes 3 interchangeable.

Further, the heat radiation pipe 3 is arranged under the tile carpet 6 (see FIG. 2). In the figure, reference numeral 4 is a water leakage detection device, which has both a sensor and a busher.
Further, reference numeral 5 is a waterproof pan that also serves as a reinforcement, and has an inclined bottom surface so that the above-described water leak detection device 4 can detect water leak earlier. Further, the water leak detection device 4 and the inlet / outlet connector 1 are linked so that the water leak detection device 4
It is also possible to shut off the water passage of the inlet / outlet connector 1 when a water leak is detected by.

In FIG. 1, four radiating pipes 3 having the same length are used, and an input / output connector 1 and a change connector 2 are selected and connected detachably. And linear or approximately L
The radiating pipes 3 bent into a letter shape are connected in the following three combinations (see FIG. 3). That is, it is a combination of connecting the input / output connector 1 and the change connector 2, connecting the input / output connectors 1 to each other, and connecting the change connectors 2 to each other. This 3
The heating panels connected in a combination of streets are used as a basic pattern, and the heating panels having these basic patterns are selected and combined into an arbitrary shape and size. Panel P in the illustrated example
Has a square shape, but it can also be formed in a rectangular shape. In addition, the input / output connector 1 and the change connector 2
May be increased.

The heating panel of FIG. 3 shows a basic pattern of the heating panel. In this example, the first pattern P1 and the second pattern P are composed of four patterns.
2, referred to as a third pattern P3 and a fourth pattern P4. The first pattern P1 is a pattern for connecting the input / output connectors 1 provided on the two opposite sides of the panel P. The second pattern P2 shows a type in which the radiating pipe 3 on one side of the first pattern P1 is connected to the adjacent input / output connector 1. Further, the third pattern P3 is a type in which the input / output connectors 1 on two adjacent sides of the panel P are connected to each other, and the final fourth pattern P4 is from one side of the input / output connectors 1 provided on one side of the panel P to the other side. The pattern connected to the I / O connector 1 so as to make a U-turn is shown. By combining such four patterns, the heating panel can be combined in any shape and size.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a heating panel in which four basic patterns are combined. In this example, a total of nine heating panels including three first patterns P1, two second patterns P2, one third pattern P3, and three fourth patterns P4 are assembled. It is matched. In this heating panel, for example, when the heating of one fourth pattern P4 is to be stopped in order to mount a desk or the like (see FIG.
Mark) is performed as follows. That is, the fourth to stop heating
The heating panel marked with an X in the figure is simply changed from the first pattern P1 to the fourth pattern P4 on the heating panel (first pattern P1 in this example) on the side where hot water flows in and out of the pattern P4. You can turn off the heating. Moreover, when the heat radiating pipe 3 is formed of a flexible pipe, the radiating pipe 3 can be changed to the fourth pattern P4 only by changing the connecting direction of the radiating pipe 3 in the first pattern P1, so that the work is extremely easy.

[0020]

The heating panel of the present invention has achieved the initial object by being constructed as described above.

That is, according to the first and second aspects, it is possible to form a heating panel having an extremely large number of patterns by selecting the input / output connector 1 and the change connector 2 and connecting the radiating pipe 3. . As a result, when it is spread on the floor, it is possible to finely set the space that requires heating and the space that does not require heating.

Moreover, since at least a pair of inlet / outlet connectors 1 for inflowing or outflowing hot water into or from the inside of the panel from each of the four sides are provided on the four sides of one panel P, the heating panel used is Even if there is a space where heating is no longer needed, it is possible to deal with this by simply changing the setting of the radiation pipe 3 of the heating panel that is no longer needed. Therefore, unlike the conventional heating panel, it is possible to save the troublesome work of recombining the combination of the heating panels around the heating panel that is no longer needed.

Further, according to the third and fourth aspects, it is possible to adapt to any space by combining a plurality of heating panels having a basic pattern, which are connected by combining the heat radiating pipes 3 bent in a linear shape or a substantially L shape.

Moreover, since the heating panel can be selected from at least four kinds of basic patterns, it is not necessary to prepare 12 kinds of patterns as in the conventional heating panel.
In addition, there is no need for troublesome work such as halving the heating panel to form a more special type of heating panel.

Thus, according to the heating panel of the present invention,
Only four basic patterns can be combined freely, and the connection direction of the heat radiating pipes 3 in each panel P can also be freely changed, making the heating panel extremely suitable for the shape and conditions of the floor surface. It is possible to combine them efficiently.
