Abstract
Description
Foyer de cheminée ou poêle de type "bûches à gaz"
La présente invention concerne le domaine des appareils de chauffage individuels, en particulier à feu visible, et a pour objet un foyer de cheminée ou poêle de type "bûches à gaz". Fireplace or stove type "gas logs"
The present invention relates to the field of individual heaters, in particular to visible fire, and relates to a fireplace or stove type "gas logs".
Les foyers de type "bûches à gaz" sont généralement constitués par un brûleur à gaz au-dessus duquel sont disposées des bûches en céramique, qui donnent l'impression de se consumer sous l'effet du gaz en combustion passant entre elles et/ou autour d'elles. Fireplaces of the "gas log" type generally consist of a gas burner above which are placed ceramic logs, which give the impression of being consumed by the effect of the burning gas passing between them and / or around them.
Ces foyers connus n'ont, cependant, qu'une valeur purement esthétique, du fait que leur rendement calorifique est faible. En effet, pour assurer une apparence de combustion de bûches de bois, la combustion du gaz ne peut pas être réglée de manière parfaite, sous peine de risquer l'obtention d'une flamme bleue. These known fireplaces have, however, only a purely aesthetic value, because their calorific output is low. Indeed, to ensure an appearance of combustion of wood logs, the combustion of the gas cannot be adjusted in a perfect manner, otherwise there is a risk of obtaining a blue flame.
En outre, la combustion incomplète du gaz entraine également un risque de dégagement de gaz toxiques qui peuvent, éventuellement, se répandre dans la pièce équipée d'une telle cheminée. In addition, the incomplete combustion of the gas also entails a risk of release of toxic gases which can, possibly, spread in the room equipped with such a chimney.
La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients. The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.
Elle a, en effet, pour objet un foyer de type "bûches à gaz" constitué par un foyer, sur la grille ou la sole duquel sont disposées des bûches en céramique, ou autre matériau résistant à la flamme et imitant le combustible naturel, et par au moins un brûleur à gaz s'étendant sous la grille ou lesdites bûches, caractérisé en ce que le foyer est fermé sur sa face avant, de manière étanche, par une vitre, et est pourvu sur toutes ses autres faces d'une couche d'isolation thermique, et en ce que la sortie des gaz de combustion du foyer est munie d'un catalyseur. It has, in fact, for object a hearth of the "gas log" type constituted by a hearth, on the grate or the bottom of which are placed logs made of ceramic, or other material resistant to flame and imitating natural fuel, and by at least one gas burner extending under the grate or said logs, characterized in that the hearth is closed on its front face, in a leaktight manner, by a window, and is provided on all its other faces with a layer thermal insulation, and in that the combustion gas outlet of the hearth is provided with a catalyst.
L'invention sera mieux comprise grâce à la description ci-après, qui se rapporte à un mode de réalisation préféré, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et expliqué avec référence au dessin schématique annexé, dont la figure unique est une vue en coupe d'un foyer conforme à l'invention. The invention will be better understood thanks to the description below, which relates to a preferred embodiment, given by way of nonlimiting example, and explained with reference to the appended schematic drawing, the single figure of which is a view in section of a hearth according to the invention.
Le foyer de type "bûches à gaz", représenté au dessin annexé, est essentiellement constitué par un foyer 1, par des bûches en céramique 2, ou autre matériau résistant à la flamme et imitant le combustible naturel, disposées sur la grille 3 dudit foyer 1, et par au moins un brûleur à gaz 4, qui s'étend sous ladite grille 3 ou lesdites bûches 2. The "gas log" type fireplace, represented in the appended drawing, is essentially constituted by a fireplace 1, by ceramic logs 2, or other material resistant to flame and imitating natural fuel, placed on the grid 3 of said fireplace 1, and by at least one gas burner 4, which extends under said grate 3 or said logs 2.
Conformément à l'invention, le foyer 1 est fermé sur sa face avant, de manière étanche, par une vitre 5 et est muni sur toutes ses autres faces d'une couche d'isolation thermique 6, et sa sortie de fumée 7 est pourvue d'un catalyseur 8. According to the invention, the hearth 1 is closed on its front face, in a sealed manner, by a window 5 and is provided on all its other faces with a layer of thermal insulation 6, and its smoke outlet 7 is provided of a catalyst 8.
La couche d'isolation thermique 6 et la fermeture étanche du foyer 1 sur sa face avant au moyen de la vitre 5 permettent, d'une part, une montée à haute température du foyer et un maintien à cette température aisés et, d'autre part, d'éviter les contacts froids de flammes et une dilution par excès d'air. Ainsi, l'obtention d'une flamme analogue à celle résultant de la combustion de vraies bûches est possible. En outre, la disposition précitée permet d'atteindre, dans la partie supérieure du foyer, une température voisine de 480"C qui est largement supérieure à la température d'attaque du catalyseur 8 qui est supérieure à 300"C, de sorte que ce dernier peut réduire très fortement le CO résiduel. The thermal insulation layer 6 and the tight closure of the hearth 1 on its front face by means of the glass 5 allow, on the one hand, a high temperature rise of the hearth and a maintenance at this temperature easy and, on the other hand On the other hand, avoid cold contact with flames and excess air dilution. Thus, obtaining a flame similar to that resulting from the combustion of real logs is possible. In addition, the aforementioned arrangement makes it possible to reach, in the upper part of the hearth, a temperature in the region of 480 "C which is much higher than the attack temperature of the catalyst 8 which is higher than 300" C, so that the latter can greatly reduce the residual CO.
La haute température obtenue à l'intérieur du foyer permet également un chauffage efficace par rayonnement à travers la vitre 5, le rendement calorifique par rayonnement étant de l'ordre de 50 %. The high temperature obtained inside the hearth also allows efficient heating by radiation through the window 5, the heat output by radiation being of the order of 50%.
Afin d'améliorer encore le rendement calorifique du foyer conforme à l'invention, ce dernier est pourvu, selon une autre caractéristique, sur la sortie de fumée 7 du foyer 1, d'un échangeur de chaleur 9. Ce dernier permet d'abaisser, par convection, la température des gaz de combustion, ayant traversé le catalyseur,à environ 250"C et une récupération d'énergie calorifique correspondant à un rendement de l'ordre de 30 %. In order to further improve the heat output of the hearth according to the invention, the latter is provided, according to another characteristic, on the smoke outlet 7 of the hearth 1, with a heat exchanger 9. The latter makes it possible to lower , by convection, the temperature of the combustion gases, having passed through the catalyst, at approximately 250 ° C. and a recovery of heat energy corresponding to a yield of the order of 30%.
Par la combinaison d'un foyer 1 isolé thermiquement et équipé d'une vitre étanche 5, d'un catalyseur 8 et d'un échangeur de chaleur 9, il est possible d'obtenir un foyer de type "bûches à gaz" présentant, en fonctionnement, un aspect semblable à celui d'une cheminée classique à feu de bois, tout en permettant un rendement calorifique, par rayonnement et par convection, très élevé, et en tous cas supérieur à celui des cheminées de ce type existantes, avec une élimination quasiment totale des rejets de gaz toxiques. By the combination of a thermally insulated hearth 1 equipped with a sealed glass 5, a catalyst 8 and a heat exchanger 9, it is possible to obtain a hearth of the "gas log" type having, in operation, an aspect similar to that of a traditional wood-burning fireplace, while allowing a very high heat output, by radiation and by convection, and in any case higher than that of existing chimneys of this type, with a almost complete elimination of toxic gas emissions.
Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté au dessin annexé. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention. Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the accompanying drawing. Modifications remain possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without thereby departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
