Description

この発明は、貯湯タンクの貯湯水を用いて浴槽の湯張りや給湯を行う貯湯式給湯装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a hot water storage type hot water supply apparatus that performs hot water filling of a bathtub or hot water supply using hot water stored in a hot water storage tank.

従来よりこの種の給湯装置では、貯湯タンクの外周をグラスウール或いは発泡樹脂等の保温材で覆い保温、断熱すると共に、その外周を外枠で覆うものであり、この保温材を外枠の側周壁に広く面接触させて備えることで、強度の向上を図るものであった。（例えば、特許文献１参照。）
実公平１−２０６０７号公報 Conventionally, in this type of hot water supply apparatus, the outer periphery of the hot water storage tank is covered with a heat insulating material such as glass wool or foamed resin to insulate and insulate, and the outer periphery is covered with an outer frame. It was intended to improve strength by providing a wide surface contact. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1.)
No. 1-20607

ところでこの従来のものでは、保温材と外枠とを密接する寸法としているが、全ての寸法を厳密に管理することは出来ず、それぞれの箇所で凹凸が発生し、保温材と外枠との間に隙間が生じて、これが製品の運搬時のガタツキの原因となり、各部品の緩みに発展する危険を有し、又屋外に設置されることが多いこの製品では、特に上面が寸法誤差で凹むと、雨水が溜まり腐食の原因になるものであった。 By the way, in this conventional one, the heat insulating material and the outer frame are in close contact dimensions, but it is impossible to strictly manage all the dimensions, and unevenness occurs at each location, and the heat insulating material and the outer frame There is a gap between them, which causes looseness when the product is transported, and there is a risk of developing loose parts, and in this product that is often installed outdoors, the top surface is recessed due to dimensional errors. Rainwater accumulated and caused corrosion.

そこで、この発明は上記課題を解決する為、特にその構成を、貯湯タンク外周を保温材で覆うと共に、該貯湯タンク上部の突出した開口部も専用の円形保温材で覆い、この保温材の外周を外枠で覆ったものに於いて、前記貯湯タンクを覆った保温材の外径寸法を外枠の外径寸法より大きくし、組立後の製品の上面を中央で突出して端に向かってなだらかな傾斜面とし、更に側周が外側に膨らんだ形状としたものである。 Therefore, for solving this invention above problems, in particular the configuration, Utotomoni covering the hot water storage tank periphery with a heat insulating material, also projecting opening of the hot water storage tank top has covered a dedicated circular thermal insulation material, the insulation material The outer diameter of the heat insulation material covering the hot water storage tank is made larger than the outer diameter of the outer frame, and the upper surface of the assembled product protrudes from the center toward the end. It has a gentle sloping surface and a side bulge outward.

この発明によれば、多少の寸法誤差があっても、組立後の製品の上面及び側周を外側に膨らんだ形状となるので、運搬時のガタツキが確実に防止され、各部品が緩む心配もなくなるものであり、しかも極めて強固となり凹みや打痕も防止出来、更に上面は円形保温材がほぼ中央で突出することで、中央から端に向かってなだらかな傾斜面となり、凹みがなくて雨水が溜まらないのは勿論、雨水はこの傾斜面に沿ってスムーズに流れ腐蝕の心配は全くないものであり、常に安心して使用出来るものである。 According to the present invention, even if there is a slight dimensional error, the upper surface and the side periphery of the assembled product are swelled outward, so that rattling during transportation is surely prevented and there is a risk of loosening of each part. In addition, it becomes extremely strong and can prevent dents and dents, and the upper surface has a circular heat insulating material protruding at the center, so that it becomes a gentle inclined surface from the center to the end. Of course, the rainwater flows smoothly along this inclined surface and there is no worry about corrosion, and it can always be used with confidence.

次にこの発明の一実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
１は円筒状の貯湯タンクで、電気ヒータやヒーポン室外機等の加熱手段（図示せず）を利用し、時間帯別契約電力の電力単価が安価な深夜時間帯に湯水を沸き上げて貯湯するものであり、上部には大きな口の開口部２が突出して備えられている。
３は前記貯湯タンク１外周を覆った耐熱性発泡ポリスチレンからなる保温材で、底部保温材３ａ、中央背面保温材３ｂ、中央正面保温材３ｃ、上部保温材３ｄに４分割されており、組立ることで貯湯タンク１と相似形の円筒状を呈すもので、開口部２には専用の円形保温材３ｅが設けられている。 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a cylindrical hot water storage tank that uses heating means (not shown) such as an electric heater or a heat-pump outdoor unit to boil hot water and store hot water in the midnight hours when the unit price of contract power by time is low. A large mouth opening 2 projects from the top.
3 is a heat insulating material made of heat-resistant foamed polystyrene covering the outer periphery of the hot water storage tank 1, and is divided into four parts, a bottom heat insulating material 3a, a central back surface heat insulating material 3b, a central front heat insulating material 3c, and an upper heat insulating material 3d. Thus, it has a cylindrical shape similar to that of the hot water storage tank 1, and the opening 2 is provided with a dedicated circular heat insulating material 3e.

４は貯湯タンク１を覆った保温材３の外周を覆う正方形形状の外枠で、底板４ａ、コ字状の側板４ｂ、この側板４ｂの蓋となる前面板４ｃ、上面板４ｄに分割されていてネジ等で組み付けるものである。
５は貯湯タンク１底部から延長され底板４ａを貫通して備えられた３本の支持脚である。 Reference numeral 4 denotes a square outer frame covering the outer periphery of the heat insulating material 3 covering the hot water storage tank 1, and is divided into a bottom plate 4a, a U-shaped side plate 4b, a front plate 4c serving as a lid for the side plate 4b, and an upper plate 4d. Assemble with screws.
Reference numeral 5 denotes three support legs that extend from the bottom of the hot water storage tank 1 and are provided through the bottom plate 4a.

前記貯湯タンク１を覆った保温材３の外径寸法は、直径約７２２ｍｍ、円形保温材３ｅを入れた高さ１７２１ｍｍで、この保温材３の外周を覆う前記外枠４を一辺を約７２０ｍｍ、高さ１７２０ｍｍとして、内方の保温材３の方を板厚もあるが片側０．５〜１ｍｍ大きくし、又上面も保温材３の方が１〜２ｍｍ突出する大きさとすることにより、組立後は上面及び側周が内方の保温材３で押され外側に膨らんだ形状（図面中点線が正規の外枠寸法）とすることで、寸法誤差で隙間が発生することがなく、保温材３は外枠４に密接しており、運搬時のガタキツがなくなり各部品が緩むこともないものであり、しかも極めて強固となり凹みや打痕も防止出来、更に上面は円形保温材３ｅがほぼ中央で突出することで、中央から端に向かってなだらかな傾斜面となり、凹みがなくて雨水が溜まらないのは勿論、雨水はこの傾斜面に沿ってスムーズに流れ腐食の心配は全くないものである。 The outer diameter of the heat insulating material 3 covering the hot water storage tank 1 is about 722 mm in diameter and 1721 mm in height including the circular heat insulating material 3 e. The outer frame 4 covering the outer periphery of the heat insulating material 3 has a side of about 720 mm, After assembling, the inner heat insulating material 3 has a thickness of 1720 mm, the inner heat insulating material 3 has a plate thickness but is 0.5 to 1 mm larger on one side, and the upper surface also has a size such that the heat insulating material 3 protrudes 1 to 2 mm. Has a shape in which the upper surface and the side periphery are pushed by the insulative heat insulating material 3 and bulge outward (the dotted line in the drawing is a normal outer frame size), so that there is no gap due to dimensional error, and the heat insulating material 3 Is in close contact with the outer frame 4 and does not loosen during transportation, and the parts do not loosen, and it is extremely strong and can prevent dents and dents. Furthermore, the upper surface has a circular heat insulating material 3e at the center. By projecting, gently from the center toward the edge It becomes Do inclined surfaces, depressions that do not accumulate rainwater without, of course, rainwater concern smoothly flow corrosion along the inclined surface is intended no.

従来では保温材３と外枠４とは、互いに接するぎりぎりの設計で、部品精度の高さが求められる結果、製造に時間がかかり過ぎて量産性に欠けるものであり、更に無理して大量生産すると寸法誤差によって、保温材３と外枠４の間に隙間が生じてしまうので、ここではあえて内方の保温材３を外側の外枠４より大きくして、外側の外枠４を変形させることで、寸法精度に拘ることなく部品の製造が可能となり、量産に適した構成とすることが出来るものであり、しかも製品が大型であるので、変形してもそれほど目立たず、商品価値を低下させる心配もないものである。 Conventionally, the heat insulating material 3 and the outer frame 4 are designed so as to be in contact with each other. As a result, high accuracy of the parts is required. As a result, it takes too much time to manufacture and lacks mass productivity. Then, since a gap is generated between the heat insulating material 3 and the outer frame 4 due to dimensional errors, the inner heat insulating material 3 is intentionally made larger than the outer outer frame 4 to deform the outer outer frame 4 here. This makes it possible to manufacture parts without regard to dimensional accuracy, making it suitable for mass production, and because the product is large, it is not noticeable even if it is deformed, reducing the commercial value There is no worry about it.
