Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de chauffage à airThe present invention relates to an air heater

chaud associé à une cheminée à foyer ouvert.  hot associated with an open fireplace.

Des dispositifs de récupération de calories dans les cheminées  Calorie recovery devices in fireplaces

à foyer ouvert pour chauffer de l'eau ou de l'air sont déjà connus.  open fire to heat water or air are already known.

A titre d'exemples, parmi les dispositifs connus de chauffage d'air, on peut citer ceux qui sont décrits dans les brevets français publiés sous les NI: 2 270 527, 2 273 238 et 2 341 821. Ces dispositifs se composent tous d'une enceinte qui entoure le foyer et dans laquelle l'air à chauffer circule, la paroi de l'enceinte adjacente au foyer étant chauffée par les flammes et la fumée et servant à chauffer l'air  By way of examples, among the known air-heating devices, mention may be made of those which are described in the French patents published under the NI: 2 270 527, 2 273 238 and 2 341 821. These devices all consist of an enclosure which surrounds the hearth and in which the air to be heated circulates, the wall of the enclosure adjacent to the hearth being heated by flames and smoke and serving to heat the air

circulant dans l'enceinte. Or il est connu que la température des flam-  circulating in the enclosure. However, it is known that the temperature of flames

mes décroît très rapidement en s'éloignant de la surface du combustible et que la température de la fumée décroît également rapidement en se mélangeant avec l'air en excès passant dans la cheminée sans participer à la combustion. En particulier, le haut de la plaque de fond d'une  it decays very rapidly away from the fuel surface and the temperature of the smoke also decreases rapidly by mixing with the excess air passing through the chimney without participating in the combustion. In particular, the top of the bottom plate of a

cheminée ne permet pas de réchauffer l'air au-delà de 600 environ.  fireplace does not allow to heat the air beyond about 600.

Un objet de la présente invention consiste à prévoir un disposi-  An object of the present invention is to provide a device

ment plus élevées.higher.

Suivant une caractéristique de l'invention, il est prévu un dispo-  According to one characteristic of the invention, provision is made

sitif comprenant une enceinte ayant une face servant de plaque foyère et une face servant de plaque de fond, à travers laquelle circule de l'air à réchauffer, le dispositif comportant encore, à l'intérieur de l'enceinte, une pluralité de tuyaux débouchant en bas, à travers la face de fond, à la hauteur du bois et/ou des braises enflammés et,  device comprising an enclosure having a face serving as a fired plate and a face serving as bottom plate, through which air to be heated is circulated, the device further comprising, inside the enclosure, a plurality of pipes leading to bottom, across the bottom face, at the height of the wood and / or burning embers and,

en haut, dans le conduit de fumée.at the top, in the flue.

Suivant une autre caractéristique, les tuyaux ont une section  According to another characteristic, the pipes have a section

pant pas à la combustion.not stick to burning.

Suivant une autre caractéristique, les départs inférieurs des  According to another characteristic, the lower departures of

tuyaux sont répartis en hauteur.pipes are distributed in height.

Suivant une autre caractéristique, des moyens d'occultation sont prévus pour fermer sélectivement les départs de certains tuyaux à la demande. Les caractéristiques de l'invention mentionnées ci-dessus, ainsi  According to another characteristic, concealment means are provided for selectively closing the outlets of certain pipes on demand. The features of the invention mentioned above, as well as

relation avec les dessins joints, parmi lesquels: la Fig. 1 est une vue en coupe d'une cheminée à foyer ouvert équipée d'un dispositif de chauffage d'air suivant l'invention, la Fig. 2 est une-vue de face de la cheminée de la Fig. 1, la Fig. 3 est une vue en coupe du dispositif de chauffage suivant la ligne III-III, et la Fig. 4 est dne vue de face d'un dispositif de sélection de  relationship with the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a sectional view of an open hearth chimney equipped with an air heater according to the invention, FIG. 2 is a front view of the chimney of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the heater along line III-III, and FIG. 4 is seen from the front of a selection device of

tuyaux à ouvrir.pipes to open.

La cheminée à Boyer ouvert de la Fig. 1 comprend classiquement une plaque foyère 1 sur laquelle reposent des chenets 2 supportant des buches enflammées 3, un contre-feu 4, des jambages 5, un linteau  The open Boyer chimney of FIG. 1 conventionally comprises a furnace plate 1 on which firedogs 2 supporting inflamed logs 3, a counter-fire 4, jambs 5, a lintel

6, une hotte 7 et un conduit de fumée 8.  6, a hood 7 and a flue 8.

Le contre-feu 4 est, en fait, la paroi avant d'une enceinte 9 qui a la forme d'un caisson à section verticale en forme de L, la base du L s'étendant sous au moins une partie de la plaque foyère 1 et la jambe du L montant jusqu'à la hotte 7. L'enceinte 9 comporte, en bas, une prise d'air 10 laissant entrer de l'air frais, pris à l'extérieur ou dans la pièce contenant la cheminée et, en haut, des sorties d'air  The counter-fire 4 is, in fact, the front wall of an enclosure 9 which is in the form of a L-shaped vertical section box, the base of the L extending under at least a portion of the furnace plate. 1 and the leg of the L upright to the hood 7. The enclosure 9 has, at the bottom, an air intake 10 letting in fresh air, taken outside or in the room containing the chimney and , at the top, air outlets

11 délivrant l'air chauffé soit dans la même pièce, par exemple à tra-  11 delivering the heated air either in the same room, for example through

vers la hotte, soit dans une autre pièce. A cet effet, dans l'exemple décrit, la plaque supérieure 12 de l'enceinte 9 est percée de deux ouvertures 11 auxquelles sont raccordées des manches 13 débouchant  to the hood, either in another room. For this purpose, in the example described, the upper plate 12 of the enclosure 9 is pierced with two openings 11 to which are connected sleeves 13 opening

sur les côtés de la hotte 7.on the sides of the hood 7.

Par ailleurs, dans la jambe du L de l'enceinte 9, sont prévus des tuyaux 14, dont l'orientation générale est verticale, dont les extrémités inférieures sont soudées en bas de la plaque contre-feu 4 et dont les extrémités supérieures sont soudées à la plaque 12. Les plaques 4 et 12 sont percées en face des tuyaux 14. Les tuyaux ont un  Furthermore, in the leg of the L of the enclosure 9, there are provided pipes 14, whose general orientation is vertical, the lower ends of which are welded at the bottom of the counter-fire plate 4 and whose upper ends are welded. 12. The plates 4 and 12 are pierced in front of the pipes 14. The pipes have a

diamètre de l'ordre de 3 cm, par exemple.  diameter of about 3 cm, for example.

Les tuyaux 14 forment des sortes de dérivations à section faible par rapport au foyer principal. Il en résulte tout d'abord que les gaz combustibles, en feu, émis par le bois, peuvent également monter en brûlant dans les tuyaux 14. C'est ce qui se passe en réalité comme le montre les flammes 15 s'engouffrant dans les ouvertures à la base de la  The pipes 14 form a kind of branches with a small section compared to the main focus. As a result, firstly, the burning combustible gases emitted by the wood can also rise by burning in the pipes 14. This is actually the case as the flames 15 engulfing the openings at the base of the

plaque 4. Comme la quantité d'air admise dans chaque tuyau 14 est limi-  plate 4. Since the amount of air admitted into each pipe 14 is limited

tée par la section étroite du tuyau, les gaz chauds montant dans chaque tuyau ne sont pas brassés avec un excès d'air froid ne participant pas à la combustion. Donc la température dans les tuyaux 14 est, pour la même altitude, plus forte que sur la plaque 4. Bien entendu, la plaque 4 transfert de la chaleur du foyer vers l'intérieur de l'enceinte 9,  Through the narrow section of the pipe, the hot gases rising in each pipe are not mixed with an excess of cold air not participating in the combustion. Therefore, the temperature in the pipes 14 is, for the same altitude, higher than on the plate 4. Of course, the plate 4 transfers heat from the hearth towards the inside of the enclosure 9,

comme dans les dispositifs connus.as in the known devices.

Par ailleurs, le rapport de la surface d'un tuyau à son volume est maximal si bien que le transfert de la chaleur se fait vers l'air qui passe dans l'enceinte 9, avec une nettement meilleure efficacité que dans un dispositif ne comportant comme surface de transfert que  Furthermore, the ratio of the surface of a pipe to its volume is maximum so that the heat transfer is to the air passing through the chamber 9, with a significantly better efficiency than in a device having no as a transfer surface that

L'expérience prouve que, parmi les tuyaux 14, ceux qui conduisent le mieux les flammes, sont ceux dont l'entrée se trouvent au niveau de la naissance des flammes du foyer. C'est pourquoi, comme le montre  Experience shows that among the pipes 14, those which lead the flames the best, are those whose entrance are at the level of the birth of the flames of the hearth. That's why, as shown

Ces moyens permettent en fonction  and as shown in Fig. 4, sliding closing plates 16, pierced with openings 17 suitably arranged, for selecting the pipes 14 to open. These means make it possible
