また、前記枠体１は前記上面１ｃと前記底面１ｄとを平面で構成することにより、枠体１を机の上に置いたときに安定感が得られ、枠体１の上面１ｃに置かれた物品と放熱面４との接触面積が増えるので、物品を安定して支持できると共に、物品に熱が伝わりやすくなる。 In addition, the frame body 1 is configured such that the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d are flat, so that a sense of stability is obtained when the frame body 1 is placed on a desk, and the frame body 1 is placed on the upper surface 1c of the frame body 1. The contact area between the article and the heat radiating surface 4 is increased, so that the article can be stably supported and heat is easily transmitted to the article.

また、前記枠体１は前記内側面１ａと外側面１ｂの上部と下部を湾曲して、前記上面１ｃ及び底面１ｄとの連続面を曲面で連続し、前記内側面１ａ側の曲面の曲率半径を前記外側面１ｂ側の曲面の曲率半径より小さく設定したことにより、枠体１を手で握りやすい形状にすることができた。 The frame 1 is curved at the upper and lower portions of the inner surface 1a and the outer surface 1b, the continuous surface of the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d is continuous with a curved surface, and the curvature radius of the curved surface on the inner surface 1a side. Is set to be smaller than the curvature radius of the curved surface on the outer surface 1b side, the frame body 1 can be formed into a shape that can be easily grasped by hand.

また、前記伝熱部材３が柔軟性のあるシート状素材で構成されていることにより、枠体１の内壁面が曲面で構成されていても伝熱部材３を枠体１の形状に合わせて配置でき、ヒータ２の熱が確実に枠体１の表面に伝わるものとなる。 Further, since the heat transfer member 3 is made of a flexible sheet-like material, the heat transfer member 3 is matched to the shape of the frame 1 even if the inner wall surface of the frame 1 is made of a curved surface. It can arrange | position and the heat | fever of the heater 2 will be transmitted to the surface of the frame 1 reliably.

また、前記枠体１は上板１Ａと底板１Ｂとによって構成し、前記上板１Ａには前記ヒータ２と第１の伝熱部材３ａを、前記底板１Ｂには第２の伝熱部材３ｂを配置し、前記上板１Ａの下端部と前記底板１Ｂの上端部とが係合して前記枠体１を構成すると共に、前記枠体１内では、前記第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部と第２の伝熱部材３ｂの上端部とが接続部６によって接続して前記伝熱部材３を構成することにより、ヒータ２と伝熱部材３ａ・３ｂとが予め配置された状態で、上板１Ａと底板１Ｂの組立作業を行なうことができる。 The frame 1 is composed of an upper plate 1A and a bottom plate 1B. The upper plate 1A includes the heater 2 and the first heat transfer member 3a, and the bottom plate 1B includes the second heat transfer member 3b. And the lower end of the upper plate 1A and the upper end of the bottom plate 1B are engaged to form the frame 1, and the lower end of the first heat transfer member 3a in the frame 1 And the upper end portion of the second heat transfer member 3b are connected by the connecting portion 6 to constitute the heat transfer member 3, so that the heater 2 and the heat transfer members 3a and 3b are arranged in advance. Assembling work of the plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B can be performed.

また、前記上板１Ａの下端部が前記底板１Ｂの上端部の内側に係合するように配置して、前記上板１Ａと前記底板１Ｂとの係合部５を形成し、前記上板１Ａの下端部と前記底板１Ｂの上端部との間で前記第１の伝熱部材３ａと前記第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続する接続部６を形成することにより、枠体１の上板１Ａと底板１Ｂを嵌合するときに、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続することができる。 In addition, the upper plate 1A is disposed so that the lower end of the upper plate 1A is engaged with the inner side of the upper end of the bottom plate 1B, thereby forming the engaging portion 5 between the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B. An upper plate of the frame 1 is formed by forming a connecting portion 6 between the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b between the lower end of the bottom plate 1B and the upper end of the bottom plate 1B. When the 1A and the bottom plate 1B are fitted, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b can be connected.

また、前記接続部６は前記枠体１の少なくとも内側面１ａ側に設けることにより、ヒータ２の熱が底板１Ｂに配置された第２の伝熱部材３ｂにも伝わりやすくなる。 Further, by providing the connecting portion 6 on at least the inner surface 1a side of the frame body 1, the heat of the heater 2 is easily transferred to the second heat transfer member 3b disposed on the bottom plate 1B.

また、前記枠体１の外側面１ｂには、電源からの電力供給を受けるための電源入力部７を設けると共に、前記枠体１内には前記電源入力部７から左右方向に伸びる配線コード７ａを配置し、前記ヒータ２は両端が前記配線コード７ａに接続すると共に、前記配線コード７ａとの接続位置から前記電源入力部７とは反対側の前記内側面１ａに沿って円周状に配置され、前記ヒータ２と前記電源入力部７との間に所定の距離Ｌが形成されていることにより、電源入力部７は低温度を維持でき、安定して動作するものとなる。 The outer surface 1b of the frame body 1 is provided with a power input portion 7 for receiving power supply from a power source, and a wiring cord 7a extending in the left-right direction from the power input portion 7 in the frame body 1. The heater 2 is connected to the wiring cord 7a at both ends, and is arranged circumferentially along the inner surface 1a opposite to the power input portion 7 from the connection position with the wiring cord 7a. Since the predetermined distance L is formed between the heater 2 and the power input unit 7, the power input unit 7 can maintain a low temperature and operate stably.

また、前記枠体１内には前記ヒータ２と前記電源入力部７との間に仕切板８ａを配置し、前記電源入力部７の収納室８を形成したことにより、枠体１内のヒータ２の熱で温められた空気は仕切板８ａで遮られるので、電源入力部７を低温度に維持できる。 Further, a partition plate 8 a is disposed between the heater 2 and the power input unit 7 in the frame 1, and a storage chamber 8 for the power input unit 7 is formed, so that the heater in the frame 1 is formed. Since the air heated by the heat of 2 is blocked by the partition plate 8a, the power input unit 7 can be maintained at a low temperature.

また、前記電源入力部７は交流電源もしくはＵＳＢ電源を接続可能となっていることにより、使用目的や使用場所によって電源を選択して使用することができる。 Further, since the power input unit 7 can be connected to an AC power source or a USB power source, the power source can be selected and used according to the purpose of use or the place of use.

この発明の保温器は、枠体１を中空ドーナツ状に形成し、枠体１内の内側面１ａに沿って円周状にヒータ２を配置し、ヒータ２と接続する伝熱部材３を枠体１内の内側面１ａから上面１ｃと底面１ｄを経て外側面１ｂまで配置して、枠体１の表面に放熱面４を構成したものであり、ヒータ２の熱が伝熱部材３によって拡散し、枠体１の放熱面４の表面温度が上昇するものであり、ヒータ２を配置した枠体１の内側面１ａが最も温度が高くなる。 In the incubator of the present invention, the frame body 1 is formed in a hollow donut shape, the heater 2 is arranged circumferentially along the inner side surface 1a in the frame body 1, and the heat transfer member 3 connected to the heater 2 is framed. The heat dissipating surface 4 is formed on the surface of the frame body 1 from the inner surface 1a in the body 1 to the outer surface 1b through the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d, and the heat of the heater 2 is diffused by the heat transfer member 3. However, the surface temperature of the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame body 1 increases, and the temperature of the inner side surface 1a of the frame body 1 in which the heater 2 is disposed is highest.

ドーナツ状に形成した枠体１の中央には穴が開いているから、穴が開いた枠体１の中央部分に飲料用の容器を置くことができ、枠体１が容器の側面を囲むように位置して、枠体１の内側面１ａが容器の側面に接触することで、容器に入った飲み物を保温することができる。この発明の構成では、最も温度の高い内側面１ａが容器の側面に接触し、容器の側面から熱が伝わるので、容器に入った飲み物を効率よく温めることができるものとなり、容器に入った飲み物が冷めにくくなり、飲み物を用意してしばらく時間が経過した後でも温かい飲み物を飲むことができるものとなった。 Since there is a hole in the center of the frame 1 formed in a donut shape, a beverage container can be placed in the center of the frame 1 with the hole so that the frame 1 surrounds the side of the container. When the inner surface 1a of the frame 1 is in contact with the side surface of the container, the drink contained in the container can be kept warm. In the configuration of the present invention, the inner side surface 1a having the highest temperature contacts the side surface of the container, and heat is transmitted from the side surface of the container, so that the drink contained in the container can be efficiently heated. It became difficult to cool down, and it became possible to drink hot drinks even after a while after preparing drinks.

また、枠体１の表面が放熱面４となるから、置き場所をとらないコンパクトな枠体形状にすることができ、机の上に置いても邪魔にならない形状と大きさを備えた保温器が実現できたものである。 Moreover, since the surface of the frame 1 becomes the heat radiating surface 4, it can be made into a compact frame shape that does not take place, and a warmer having a shape and size that does not get in the way even when placed on a desk. Has been realized.

更に、この発明の枠体形状であれば、枠体１の上に手や物品を置いたり、枠体１を手で握ったりすることもでき、飲料用の容器を保温する目的の他に、手や物品を温めたいときにも使用することができるものとなり、使用用途が飲料用の容器の保温に限定されることなく、多用途に利用できる保温器が構成できたものである。 Furthermore, if it is the frame shape of this invention, a hand or an article can be placed on the frame body 1 or the frame body 1 can be gripped by hand, in addition to the purpose of keeping the beverage container warm, It can be used when it is desired to warm a hand or an article, and the use is not limited to the insulation of beverage containers, and a warmer that can be used for many purposes can be constructed.

また、枠体１の上面１ｃと底面１ｄを平面で構成することで、枠体１を机の上などに置いたときに安定感が得られると共に、枠体１の上面１ｃに物品を置いたときに、物品が安定するものとなった。更に、枠体１の上に物品を置いたときに、物品と枠体１の放熱面４との接触面積が多くなるので、放熱面４から物品に熱が伝わりやすくなり、枠体１の上に物品を置いたときにも、確実に物品の保温を行うことができる。 In addition, since the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d of the frame body 1 are configured as planes, a sense of stability is obtained when the frame body 1 is placed on a desk or the like, and an article is placed on the upper surface 1c of the frame body 1. Sometimes the article became stable. Further, when an article is placed on the frame body 1, the contact area between the article and the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame body 1 increases, so that heat can be easily transferred from the heat radiating surface 4 to the article. Even when an article is placed on the container, the article can be reliably kept warm.

また、枠体１の内側面１ａと外側面１ｂの上部と下部を湾曲して、上面１ｃ及び底面１ｄとの連続面を曲面で構成し、内側面１ａの曲率半径を外側面１ｂの曲率半径より小さく設定したものであり、枠体１を手で握ったときに、手の平は外側面１ｂの曲面に沿って丸めやすく、一方、指先は内側面１ａにかけやすい形状となっているから、手で握りやすい枠体構造が実現できると共に、手が枠体１の放熱面４と接触しやすくなって、手を温めやすくなったものである。 In addition, the upper and lower portions of the inner surface 1a and the outer surface 1b of the frame 1 are curved, the continuous surface of the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d is formed as a curved surface, and the radius of curvature of the inner surface 1a is the radius of curvature of the outer surface 1b. Since the palm is easy to roll along the curved surface of the outer surface 1b when the frame 1 is grasped by hand, the fingertip is shaped to be easily applied to the inner surface 1a. A frame structure that can be easily grasped can be realized, and the hand can easily come into contact with the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1, and the hand can be easily warmed.

また、伝熱部材３を柔軟性のあるシート状素材で構成しているから、枠体１の内壁が曲面で構成されていても、伝熱部材３を枠体１の形状にあわせて変形させながら取り付けることができ、伝熱部材３を枠体１内の所定の位置に正しく配置することができるので、枠体１と伝熱部材３との間に隙間ができにくく、放熱面４の全体に熱が伝わり均一な温度を維持できるものとなった。 Further, since the heat transfer member 3 is made of a flexible sheet-like material, even if the inner wall of the frame body 1 is made of a curved surface, the heat transfer member 3 is deformed according to the shape of the frame body 1. Since the heat transfer member 3 can be correctly disposed at a predetermined position in the frame 1, it is difficult to form a gap between the frame 1 and the heat transfer member 3, and the entire heat radiating surface 4 is formed. Heat was transferred to the surface, and a uniform temperature could be maintained.

また、枠体１は上下に分割して上板１Ａと底板１Ｂとで構成し、上板１Ａにはヒータ２と第１の伝熱部材３ａを配置し、底板１Ｂに第２の伝熱部材３ｂを配置しており、上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部との間に係合部５を設け、第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部と第２の伝熱部材３ｂの上端部との間に接続部６を設け、上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部とを嵌合して係合部５によって係合したときに、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続する構成とした。このため、ヒータ２と伝熱部材３ａ・３ｂが取り付けられた状態で上板１Ａと底板１Ｂの組立を行なうことができ、枠体１の組立作業を容易に行うことができるものとなった。 The frame 1 is divided into upper and lower plates 1A and a bottom plate 1B. A heater 2 and a first heat transfer member 3a are disposed on the upper plate 1A, and a second heat transfer member is provided on the bottom plate 1B. 3b is disposed, and the engaging portion 5 is provided between the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A and the upper end portion of the bottom plate 1B, and the lower end portion of the first heat transfer member 3a and the upper end of the second heat transfer member 3b. When the connection portion 6 is provided between the first plate and the lower plate of the upper plate 1A and the upper plate of the bottom plate 1B are fitted and engaged by the engagement portion 5, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3a The heat transfer member 3b is connected. For this reason, the top plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B can be assembled in a state where the heater 2 and the heat transfer members 3a and 3b are attached, and the frame 1 can be easily assembled.

また、上板１Ａの下端部が底板１Ｂの上端部の内側に嵌合するように構成し、上板１Ａの下端部の外側と底板１Ｂの上端部の内側との間に第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続する接続部６を配置したから、上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部を嵌合するときに枠体１の内部構造が見えなくても、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂが確実に接続できるものとなり、容易に組立作業を行なうことができるものとなった。 Moreover, it comprises so that the lower end part of 1 A of upper plates may fit inside the upper end part of the baseplate 1B, and it is the 1st heat transfer between the outer side of the lower end part of the upper board 1A, and the inner side of the upper end part of the baseplate 1B. Since the connecting portion 6 for connecting the member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b is arranged, the internal structure of the frame 1 cannot be seen when the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A and the upper end portion of the bottom plate 1B are fitted. In addition, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b can be reliably connected, and the assembly work can be easily performed.

また、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが枠体１の内側面１ａ側で接続するように接続部６を形成しているから、ヒータ２の熱が第２の伝熱部材３ｂに伝わりやすくなり、枠体１の放熱面４の全体の温度を均一に維持しやすくなった。 Moreover, since the connection part 6 is formed so that the 1st heat-transfer member 3a and the 2nd heat-transfer member 3b may be connected by the inner surface 1a side of the frame 1, the heat of the heater 2 is 2nd It became easy to be transmitted to the heat transfer member 3b, and it became easy to maintain the whole temperature of the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1 uniformly.

また、枠体１の外側面１ｂに電源入力部７を設け、枠体１内には電源入力部７から左右方向に伸びる配線コード７ａを配置し、ヒータ２は両端を配線コード７ａに接続して、電源入力部７とは反対側の枠体１内の内側面１ａに沿って配置して、ヒータ２を電源入力部７から距離Ｌをあけた位置に配置している。このため、電源入力部７にはヒータ２の熱が伝わりにくくなり、電源入力部７を低温度に維持できるので、電源入力部７は熱の影響を受けることなく安定して動作するものとなった。 Further, a power input unit 7 is provided on the outer surface 1b of the frame 1, a wiring cord 7a extending in the left-right direction from the power input unit 7 is disposed in the frame 1, and the heater 2 has both ends connected to the wiring cord 7a. Thus, the heater 2 is disposed at a distance L from the power input unit 7 by being disposed along the inner side surface 1 a in the frame 1 opposite to the power input unit 7. For this reason, the heat of the heater 2 is not easily transmitted to the power input unit 7, and the power input unit 7 can be maintained at a low temperature. Therefore, the power input unit 7 operates stably without being affected by heat. It was.

また、枠体１内のヒータ２と電源入力部７との間に仕切板８ａを配置して電源入力部７の収納室８を形成し、ヒータ２の熱で温められた空気が仕切板８ａで遮られて収納室８に向かわないようにできるから、収納室８の電源入力部７を低温度に維持でき、電源入力部７は熱の影響を受けることなく安定して動作するものとなった。 Further, a partition plate 8a is disposed between the heater 2 in the frame 1 and the power input unit 7 to form a storage chamber 8 of the power input unit 7, and the air heated by the heat of the heater 2 is separated from the partition plate 8a. The power input unit 7 of the storage chamber 8 can be maintained at a low temperature, and the power input unit 7 can operate stably without being affected by heat. It was.

また、電源入力部７は交流電源とＵＳＢ電源への接続が可能となるように設定している。パソコンにはＵＳＢ電源を備えているから、パソコン作業時にはパソコンのＵＳＢ電源に接続すれば、保温器を手元のすぐ近くに置くことができ、手を温めながらパソコンのキーボード操作を行なうことができるものとなる。この構成では、使用目的や使用場所に合わせて接続する電源を選択することができるから、使い勝手が向上できるものとなった。 The power input unit 7 is set so that connection to an AC power source and a USB power source is possible.

７は枠体１の外側面１ｂに設けた電源入力部、７ａは電源入力部７から枠体１内に伸びる２本の配線コードであり、ヒータ２の両端部が配線コード７ａに接続している。９は枠体１の外側面１ｂに設けた運転スイッチ、１０は電源入力部７に接続する電源コードであり、電源コード１０を介して電源入力部７に電力が供給され、運転スイッチ９によって運転の開始操作をすると電源入力部７からヒータ２への通電が行なわれてヒータ２が発熱し、運転スイッチ９によって運転の停止操作をすると電源入力部７からヒータ２への通電が遮断されてヒータ２の発熱が停止する。 Reference numeral 7 denotes a power input portion provided on the outer surface 1b of the frame 1, 7a denotes two wiring cords extending from the power input portion 7 into the frame 1, and both ends of the heater 2 are connected to the wiring cord 7a. Yes. 9 is an operation switch provided on the outer surface 1 b of the frame 1, 10 is a power cord connected to the power input unit 7, and power is supplied to the power input unit 7 through the power cord 10, and the operation switch 9 operates. When the start operation is performed, the heater 2 is energized from the power input unit 7 to generate heat, and when the operation switch 9 is operated to stop the operation, the energization from the power input unit 7 to the heater 2 is interrupted. The heat generation of 2 stops.

４は枠体１の表面に形成した放熱面であり、実施例では伝熱部材３が枠体１内の内側面１ａでヒータ２と接続して、上面１ｃと底面１ｄから外側面１ｂまで配置されており、伝熱部材３を配置した内側面１ａと外側面１ｂと上面１ｃと底面１ｄが放熱面４となる。ヒータ２が発熱すると、ヒータ２から伝熱部材３に熱が伝わって伝熱部材３の全体に広がり、伝熱部材３の熱が枠体１の放熱面４に伝わって枠体１の表面温度が上昇するので、枠体１の放熱面４に手や物品を触れることで、手や物品を温めることができる。なお、枠体１の内側面１ａはヒータ２からの熱が直接伝わるので最も温度が高くなる。 Reference numeral 4 denotes a heat radiating surface formed on the surface of the frame body 1. In the embodiment, the heat transfer member 3 is connected to the heater 2 on the inner side surface 1 a in the frame body 1 and arranged from the upper surface 1 c and the bottom surface 1 d to the outer side surface 1 b. The inner side surface 1 a, the outer side surface 1 b, the upper surface 1 c, and the bottom surface 1 d on which the heat transfer member 3 is disposed serve as the heat radiating surface 4. When the heater 2 generates heat, heat is transferred from the heater 2 to the heat transfer member 3 and spreads over the entire heat transfer member 3, and the heat of the heat transfer member 3 is transferred to the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame body 1 and the surface temperature of the frame body 1. Therefore, the hand and the article can be warmed by touching the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1 with the hand and the article. The inner surface 1a of the frame 1 has the highest temperature because the heat from the heater 2 is directly transmitted.

１１は紙コップや缶飲料などの飲料用の容器であり、机の上などに枠体１を置き、穴の開いた枠体１の中央に飲料用の容器１１を置いて使用することができるようになっている。飲料用の容器１１の側面下部に枠体１の内側面１ａが接触するので、枠体１の内側面１ａから容器１１に熱が伝わり、飲料用の容器１１に入った飲み物を温めることができるものである。
紙コップや缶飲料などの容器１１では、容器の底と床面の間に隙間があいていることがあるが、この発明の保温器を使用すれば、ヒータ２の熱が容器１１の側面から伝わるので、容器１１に入った飲み物を確実に温めることができる。 11 is a container for beverages such as paper cups and cans, and can be used by placing the frame body 1 on a desk or the like and placing the beverage container 11 in the center of the frame body 1 with a hole. It is like that. Since the inner side surface 1a of the frame 1 is in contact with the lower part of the side surface of the beverage container 11, heat is transferred from the inner side surface 1a of the frame 1 to the container 11, and the drink contained in the beverage container 11 can be warmed. Is.
In a container 11 such as a paper cup or a can drink, there may be a gap between the bottom and the floor of the container. However, if the incubator of the present invention is used, the heat of the heater 2 is transferred from the side of the container 11. Since it is transmitted, the drink contained in the container 11 can be surely warmed.

このため、作業の合間に飲み物を飲んで休息をとったり、飲み物を飲みながら作業を行なったりするときにおいて、飲み物を用意してからしばらく時間が経過した後でも、飲み物が冷たくなっておらず、温かい飲み物を飲むことができるものとなった。
また、飲料用の容器１１の下部の外径寸法と枠体１の穴の内径寸法が一致して、飲料用の容器１１が枠体１にぴったりとはまっているときは、飲料用の容器１１の下部に外径寸法の大きい枠体１が位置するので飲料用の容器１１が安定するものとなり、容器１１の転倒防止の効果を得ることもできるものとなった。 For this reason, when you take a break between work and take a rest, or when you work while drinking a drink, the drink is not cold and warm even after a while after preparing the drink. It became possible to drink.
Further, when the outer diameter dimension of the lower part of the beverage container 11 and the inner diameter dimension of the hole of the frame body 1 coincide with each other, and the beverage container 11 is closely fitted to the frame body 1, the beverage container 11 Since the frame body 1 having a large outer diameter is located in the lower part of the container, the beverage container 11 becomes stable, and the effect of preventing the container 11 from falling can be obtained.

従来は、枠体１の高さ寸法を、容器１１の側面全体を覆う高さに設定しており、容器１１との接触面が増えて保温性能を高くすることができるが、使用用途が容器１１の保温に限定されてしまう。この発明の保温器は、飲料用の容器１１以外の他の物品や手を枠体１の上面１ｃの上に置いたり、枠体１を手で握ったりすることができるようにするため、枠体１の上に物品や手を置いたときにちょうどよい高さとなり、また、手で握りやすい太さとなるように、枠体１の外径寸法を設定している。枠体１の上に載せる物品として、パンやドーナツのような袋に入った食料品があり、袋に入ったパンを枠体１の上面１ｃの上に置くことで温めることができる。また、枠体１の上面１ｃの上に手を置いたり、枠体１を手で握ったりすることで、手指を温めることができるものであり、従来のように飲料用の容器１１だけでなく、多用途に利用できる枠体形状の保温器が実現できたものである。 Conventionally, the height of the frame 1 is set to a height that covers the entire side surface of the container 11, and the contact surface with the container 11 can be increased to increase the heat retention performance. It will be limited to 11 heat insulation. The incubator of the present invention can place an article or a hand other than the beverage container 11 on the upper surface 1c of the frame 1 or can hold the frame 1 with a hand. The outer diameter dimension of the frame 1 is set so that the height is just right when an article or hand is placed on the body 1 and the thickness is easy to grip with a hand. As an article to be placed on the frame 1, there is a food product in a bag such as bread or a donut, and the bread in the bag can be warmed by placing it on the upper surface 1 c of the frame 1. Further, by placing a hand on the upper surface 1c of the frame body 1 or by grasping the frame body 1 with a hand, the fingers can be warmed. Thus, a frame-shaped incubator that can be used for many purposes can be realized.

この発明の保温器は、飲料用の容器１１の保温をするときには、最も温度が高くなる枠体１の内側面１ａが容器１１の側面に接触して、確実にヒータ２の熱を容器１１に伝えることができるから、容器１１の側面全体を覆う構成にしなくても保温性能を大きく低下させることはなく、飲み物を保温することができるものであり、保温器をコンパクトな枠体形状で構成することができるから、机の上に置いても邪魔にならず、取扱性が良いものとなった。 In the warmer of the present invention, when the beverage container 11 is kept warm, the inner side surface 1a of the frame 1 having the highest temperature comes into contact with the side surface of the container 11, and the heat of the heater 2 is reliably transferred to the container 11. Since it can be communicated, it is possible to keep the drink warm without greatly reducing the heat retaining performance without covering the entire side surface of the container 11, and the warmer is configured in a compact frame shape. Because it is possible, even if placed on the desk, it does not get in the way and the handling is good.

また、この発明の実施例の枠体１は上面１ｃと底面１ｄを平面で構成しており、枠体１を机などの上に置いて使用するときには、枠体１の底面１ｃと机との接地面が増えるから、安定感のある枠体形状とすることができた。一方、枠体１の上面１ｃに物品を載せたときには、物品と上面１ｃとの接触面積が増えるので、上面１ｃの上に載せた物品が安定し、放熱面４から物品に効率よく熱を伝えることができるものとなり、物品を確実に温めることできるものとなった。 Further, the frame body 1 of the embodiment of the present invention has a top surface 1c and a bottom surface 1d which are flat surfaces. When the frame body 1 is placed on a desk or the like and used, the bottom surface 1c of the frame body 1 and the desk Since the ground contact surface increased, it was possible to obtain a stable frame shape. On the other hand, when an article is placed on the upper surface 1c of the frame 1, the contact area between the article and the upper surface 1c increases, so that the article placed on the upper surface 1c is stable and efficiently transfers heat from the heat radiating surface 4 to the article. It was possible to warm the article reliably.

容器１１を保温するときにおいて、背の高い容器１１に使用するときは枠体１の位置を高くした方が、飲み物が温まりやすくなる。この発明の保温器は上下に複数個重ねて使用することができ、枠体１の上面１ｃと底面１ｄを平面で構成しているから、枠体１を上下に重ねても安定しており、保温器を重ねた状態で容器１１の保温に使用すれば、サイズの大きい背の高い容器１１でも確実に保温することができる。また、図６のように枠体１の下部に、枠体１と同様に中央に穴を開けたドーナツ状の支持部材を配置してもよく、支持部材の上に保温器を載せて使用することで、枠体１の内側面１ａを容器１１の側面の高い位置で接触させることができ、背の高い容器１１でも温めることができる。 When the container 11 is kept warm, when the container 11 is used for a tall container 11, the drink is more easily warmed when the position of the frame body 1 is raised. The incubator according to the present invention can be used by stacking a plurality of top and bottom, and since the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d of the frame body 1 are formed in a plane, it is stable even when the frame body 1 is stacked up and down. If the container 11 is used to heat the container 11 in a state where the incubators are stacked, the large container 11 having a large size can be reliably kept warm. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a donut-shaped support member having a hole in the center may be disposed at the bottom of the frame body 1 as in the case of the frame body 1, and a warmer is placed on the support member for use. Thus, the inner side surface 1a of the frame body 1 can be brought into contact with a high position on the side surface of the container 11, and the tall container 11 can be warmed.

また、枠体１を握ることで手を温めるときは、図５のように手の平を丸めて枠体１の上面１ｃから外側面１ｂに添え、指を曲げて枠体１の内側面１ａにかけた状態となり、手の平と指先とで曲げ角度が異なる。この発明の実施例では、枠体１の内側面１ａと外側面１ｂの上部と下部は上面１ｃ及び底面１ｄに向けて湾曲して、上面１ｃ及び底面１ｄとの連続面を曲面で構成し、手の平があたる外側面１ｂ側の曲面の曲率半径を大きく設定し、指がかかる内側面１ａ側の曲面の曲率半径を小さく設定したものである。このようにすると、枠体１を握るときに、外側面１ｂの曲面に沿って手の平を丸めやすく、一方、内側面１ａの曲面の角度に合わせて指を曲げることで、指が内側面１ａにかかりやすくなる。
このため、枠体１を握ったときに握りやすい形状となり、手の平と指先が枠体１の放熱面４と接触しやすくなり、枠体１の放熱面４との接触面積が増えることで、枠体１を握った手を温めることができるものとなった。 When warming the hand by grasping the frame 1, the palm is rounded and attached to the outer surface 1 b from the upper surface 1 c of the frame 1 as shown in FIG. 5, and the fingers are bent and applied to the inner surface 1 a of the frame 1. The bending angle is different between the palm and the fingertip. In the embodiment of the present invention, the upper and lower portions of the inner surface 1a and the outer surface 1b of the frame 1 are curved toward the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d, and the continuous surface of the upper surface 1c and the bottom surface 1d is formed as a curved surface. The curvature radius of the curved surface on the outer surface 1b side where the palm hits is set larger, and the curvature radius of the curved surface on the inner surface 1a side on which the finger is applied is set smaller. In this way, when gripping the frame 1, the palm is easily rounded along the curved surface of the outer surface 1b, while the finger is bent to the inner surface 1a by bending the finger according to the angle of the curved surface of the inner surface 1a. It becomes easy to take.
For this reason, when it grasps the frame 1, it becomes a shape which is easy to grasp, a palm and a fingertip become easy to contact the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1, and the contact area with the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1 increases, The hand holding the body 1 can be warmed.

また、この発明では伝熱部材３をアルミ箔のような柔軟性のあるシートで構成しているから、枠体１の内壁面が曲面で形成されていても、伝熱部材３は枠体１の曲面形状に沿って変形しながら貼り付けることができるものである。このため、ドーナツ形状の枠体１でも伝熱部材３の取り付け作業が簡単にできるものであり、枠体１と伝熱部材３との間に大きな隙間を作ることなく伝熱部材３を配置できるから、枠体１の表面温度の低い部分ができてしまうことはなく、枠体１の放熱面４の全体を均一な温度に維持できるものとなる。 Moreover, in this invention, since the heat-transfer member 3 is comprised with the flexible sheet | seat like aluminum foil, even if the inner wall surface of the frame 1 is formed in the curved surface, the heat-transfer member 3 is the frame 1 It can be pasted while deforming along the curved surface shape. For this reason, the heat transfer member 3 can be easily attached even in the donut-shaped frame 1, and the heat transfer member 3 can be disposed without creating a large gap between the frame 1 and the heat transfer member 3. Therefore, a portion having a low surface temperature of the frame body 1 is not formed, and the entire heat radiation surface 4 of the frame body 1 can be maintained at a uniform temperature.

図３において、１Ａは枠体１の上板、１Ｂは枠体１の底板であり、枠体１は上下２つに分割されて上板１Ａと底板１Ｂを上下に重ねて組み立てる構成であり、実施例では上板１Ａの下端部が底板１Ｂの上端部の内側に嵌合するように形成されている。５は上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部との間に設けた係合部であり、実施例の係合部５は上板１Ａに設けたツメ５ａと、底板１Ｂに設けた突起５ｂとで構成されており、上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部を嵌合したときに、係合部５であるツメ５ａと突起５ｂとが係合して上板１Ａと底板１Ｂが固定されるので、枠体１を構成することができる。 In FIG. 3, 1A is an upper plate of the frame body 1 and 1B is a bottom plate of the frame body 1. The frame body 1 is divided into two parts, upper and lower, and the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B are vertically stacked and assembled. In the embodiment, the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A is formed to fit inside the upper end portion of the bottom plate 1B. Reference numeral 5 denotes an engaging portion provided between the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A and the upper end portion of the bottom plate 1B. The engaging portion 5 of the embodiment includes a claw 5a provided on the upper plate 1A and a protrusion provided on the bottom plate 1B. 5b. When the lower end of the upper plate 1A and the upper end of the bottom plate 1B are fitted, the claw 5a that is the engaging portion 5 and the protrusion 5b are engaged, and the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B are engaged. Is fixed, the frame 1 can be configured.

一方、伝熱部材３も上下２つに分割されており、３ａは上板１Ａに取り付ける第１の伝熱部材、３ｂは底板１Ｂに取り付ける第２の伝熱部材であり、上板１Ａにはヒータ２が取り付けられ、そのヒータ２を覆うように第１の伝熱部材３ａが配置され、底板１Ｂには伝熱部材３ｂだけが配置されている。６は第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部と第２の伝熱部材３ｂの上端部との間に設けた接続部であり、上板１Ａと底板１Ｂを嵌合して組み立てるときに、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続部６を介して接続し、枠体１内に伝熱部材３を構成することができる。 On the other hand, the heat transfer member 3 is also divided into upper and lower parts, 3a is a first heat transfer member attached to the upper plate 1A, 3b is a second heat transfer member attached to the bottom plate 1B, and the upper plate 1A includes A heater 2 is attached, a first heat transfer member 3a is disposed so as to cover the heater 2, and only the heat transfer member 3b is disposed on the bottom plate 1B. 6 is a connecting portion provided between the lower end portion of the first heat transfer member 3a and the upper end portion of the second heat transfer member 3b. When the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B are fitted and assembled, The one heat transfer member 3 a and the second heat transfer member 3 b are connected via the connection portion 6, and the heat transfer member 3 can be configured in the frame 1.

この構成では、上板１Ａにヒータ２と第１の伝熱部材３ａが配置され、底板１Ｂに第２の伝熱部材３ｂが配置された状態で、枠体１の組立作業を行なうことができるものであり、上板１Ａと底板１Ｂを嵌合して係合部５によって係合するだけで、枠体１を構成することができ、枠体１の組立作業が容易に行なえるものとなった。
また、枠体１内の上板１Ａ側にヒータ２が配置されるから、枠体１はヒータ２が配置された上板１Ａ側の内側面１ａと外側面１ｂと上面１ｃの表面温度が高くなり、第２の伝熱部材３ｂは第１の伝熱部材３ａから接続部６を介して熱が伝わるので、底板１Ｂ側の内側面１ａと外側面１ｂと底面１ｄの表面温度は上板１Ａ側よりも低くなる。 In this configuration, the frame 1 can be assembled in a state where the heater 2 and the first heat transfer member 3a are arranged on the upper plate 1A and the second heat transfer member 3b is arranged on the bottom plate 1B. The frame body 1 can be configured simply by fitting the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B and engaging with the engaging portion 5 so that the assembly work of the frame body 1 can be easily performed. It was.
Further, since the heater 2 is disposed on the upper plate 1A side in the frame body 1, the surface temperature of the inner surface 1a, the outer surface 1b, and the upper surface 1c on the upper plate 1A side where the heater 2 is disposed is high. Since the heat is transferred from the first heat transfer member 3a to the second heat transfer member 3b through the connecting portion 6, the surface temperatures of the inner side surface 1a, the outer side surface 1b, and the bottom surface 1d on the bottom plate 1B side are the upper plate 1A. Lower than the side.

このため、枠体１の中央の穴に飲料用の容器１１を置いたときは、容器１１の側面に表面温度の高い内側面１ａを接触させることができ、枠体１の上に手や物品を置いたときは、手や物品が表面温度の高い上板１Ａ側の内側面１ａ・外側面１ｂ・上面１ｃと接触しやすくなる。また、枠体１を手で握ったときは、手の平と指先が上板１Ａ側と多く接触するので、手で枠体１を握ったときも手を温めやすくなり、容器１１の保温や手を温めるのに最適な構造となった。一方、枠体１の底面１ｄ側の表面温度を低くすることで、枠体１を直接机の上に置いても、熱による設置面の変形や変色の心配がないものとなった。 Therefore, when the beverage container 11 is placed in the central hole of the frame 1, the inner surface 1 a having a high surface temperature can be brought into contact with the side surface of the container 11, and a hand or an article is placed on the frame 1. When the is placed, the hand or the article is likely to come into contact with the inner surface 1a, outer surface 1b, and upper surface 1c on the upper plate 1A side having a high surface temperature. Further, when the frame body 1 is gripped by hand, the palm and fingertips make much contact with the upper plate 1A side, so that it is easy to warm the hand even when the frame body 1 is gripped by hand. The structure is optimal for warming. On the other hand, by lowering the surface temperature on the bottom surface 1d side of the frame body 1, even if the frame body 1 is placed directly on the desk, there is no concern about deformation or discoloration of the installation surface due to heat.

上記構成において、接続部６は枠体１の内側面１ａ側に配置するとよく、ヒータ２から第２の伝熱部材３ｂまでの距離が短くなるので、ヒータ２の熱が第２の伝熱部材３ｂにも伝わりやすくなる。このため、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとの間で大きな温度差が生じにくくなり、枠体１の放熱面４の全体の温度を均一に維持できるから、枠体１を手で握ったときに大きな温度差を感じることはなく、快適な使用感が得られるものとなった。 In the above configuration, the connecting portion 6 may be disposed on the inner surface 1a side of the frame 1 and the distance from the heater 2 to the second heat transfer member 3b is shortened, so that the heat of the heater 2 is the second heat transfer member. It becomes easy to be transmitted to 3b. For this reason, a large temperature difference is unlikely to occur between the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b, and the entire temperature of the heat radiating surface 4 of the frame 1 can be maintained uniformly. There was no significant temperature difference when holding 1 with a hand, and a comfortable feeling was obtained.

また、伝熱部材３を柔軟性のあるアルミ箔シートで構成しているから、伝熱部材３の形状を簡単に変形することができる。この発明の実施例では、上板１Ａに配置された第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部を上板１Ａの下端部で折り返して、上板１Ａの下端部の外周面側に配置すると共に、底板１Ｂに配置された第２の伝熱部材３ｂの上端部を底板１Ｂの内側の上端部まで配置している。この構成では、上板１Ａの下端部が底板１Ｂの上端部の内側に嵌合したときに、上板１Ａの下端部の外周面に折り返された第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部に位置する第２の伝熱部材の上端部とが接触するので、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続できるものとなる。 Moreover, since the heat-transfer member 3 is comprised with the flexible aluminum foil sheet | seat, the shape of the heat-transfer member 3 can be changed easily. In the embodiment of the present invention, the lower end portion of the first heat transfer member 3a disposed on the upper plate 1A is folded at the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A, and is disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A. The upper end portion of the second heat transfer member 3b disposed on the bottom plate 1B is disposed up to the upper end portion inside the bottom plate 1B. In this configuration, when the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A is fitted inside the upper end portion of the bottom plate 1B, the lower end portion and the bottom plate of the first heat transfer member 3a folded back on the outer peripheral surface of the lower end portion of the upper plate 1A. Since the upper end part of the 2nd heat-transfer member located in the upper end part of 1B contacts, the 1st heat-transfer member 3a and the 2nd heat-transfer member 3b can be connected.

枠体１の上板１Ａと底板１Ｂとを係合するときに、枠体１の内部構造が見えにくいため、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続されたかどうかの確認が難しいが、この発明の構造であれば、上板１Ａの下端部と底板１Ｂの上端部を嵌合するだけで、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとを確実に接続させることができるので、枠体１を簡単に組立てることができるようになり、組立時の作業効率が向上できるものとなった。 Whether or not the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b are connected because the internal structure of the frame 1 is difficult to see when the upper plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B are engaged with each other. However, in the structure of the present invention, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b can be connected by simply fitting the lower end of the upper plate 1A and the upper end of the bottom plate 1B. Since it can be reliably connected, the frame body 1 can be easily assembled, and the work efficiency during assembly can be improved.

実施例では第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂをアルミ箔シートで構成しているから、第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂが直接接続する構造としているが、接続部６は第１の伝熱部材３ａの下端部と第２の伝熱部材３ｂとの間に金属製のプレート等を取り付けて構成し、上板１Ａと底板１Ｂとを嵌合したときに金属製プレート同士が接触することによって第１の伝熱部材３ａと第２の伝熱部材３ｂとが接続できるようにしてもよい。 In the embodiment, since the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b are made of an aluminum foil sheet, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b are directly connected to each other. However, the connection portion 6 is configured by attaching a metal plate or the like between the lower end portion of the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b, and fitting the top plate 1A and the bottom plate 1B. In this case, the first heat transfer member 3a and the second heat transfer member 3b may be connected by contacting the metal plates.

また、この発明の実施例において、ヒータ２と電源入力部７との間隔が所定の距離Ｌとなるように、ヒータ２と電源入力部７とを接続する配線コード７ａの長さを設定している。伝熱部材３の両端部もヒータ２の両端部と同じ位置になるよう配置し、伝熱部材３から電源入力部７までの間も所定の距離Ｌとなるように設定している。ヒータ２と伝熱部材３を電源入力部７との間に距離Ｌをあけて配置することにより、ヒータ２や伝熱部材３の温度が上昇しても電源入力部７には伝わらないようにすることができる。このため、電源入力部７を低温度に維持することができ、電源入力部７がヒータ２の熱の影響を受けにくくなり、電源入力部７の動作が安定すると共に、電源入力部７の故障が発生しにくくなる。 In the embodiment of the present invention, the length of the wiring cord 7a for connecting the heater 2 and the power input unit 7 is set so that the distance between the heater 2 and the power input unit 7 is a predetermined distance L. Yes. Both ends of the heat transfer member 3 are arranged at the same positions as both ends of the heater 2, and the distance from the heat transfer member 3 to the power input unit 7 is set to be a predetermined distance L. By disposing the heater 2 and the heat transfer member 3 with a distance L between the power supply input unit 7, even if the temperature of the heater 2 or the heat transfer member 3 rises, it is not transmitted to the power supply input unit 7. can do. For this reason, the power input unit 7 can be maintained at a low temperature, the power input unit 7 becomes less susceptible to the heat of the heater 2, the operation of the power input unit 7 is stabilized, and the power input unit 7 fails. Is less likely to occur.

また、８ａは枠体１内のヒータ２と電源入力部７との間に配置した仕切板、８は仕切板８ａによって枠体１内に形成された電源入力部７の収納室であり、収納室８はヒータ２とは区画された空間を形成している。この構成では、ヒータ２の熱によって温められた枠体１内の空気は仕切板８ａで遮られて収納室８に向かわないようにできるから、収納室８の温度上昇が抑えられ、収納室８に配置された電源入力部７を低温度に維持することができるものとなる。このため、電源入力部７がヒータ２の熱の影響を受けにくくなり、電源入力部７の動作が安定すると共に、電源入力部７の故障が発生しにくくなる。 8a is a partition plate disposed between the heater 2 in the frame 1 and the power input unit 7, and 8 is a storage chamber for the power input unit 7 formed in the frame 1 by the partition plate 8a. The chamber 8 forms a space partitioned from the heater 2. In this configuration, since the air in the frame 1 heated by the heat of the heater 2 can be blocked by the partition plate 8a and not directed to the storage chamber 8, the temperature rise of the storage chamber 8 can be suppressed, and the storage chamber 8 Thus, the power input unit 7 disposed in the can be maintained at a low temperature. For this reason, the power input unit 7 is not easily affected by the heat of the heater 2, the operation of the power input unit 7 is stabilized, and a failure of the power input unit 7 is less likely to occur.

また、実施例の電源入力部７は、交流電源の他にＵＳＢ電源も接続可能となっており、すぐ近くに交流電源のコンセントがないときでも、パソコンなどのＵＳＢ電源に接続することで使用することができる。パソコンのＵＳＢ電源に接続することで、保温器をキーボードのすぐ近くに置いてハンドウォーマーとして使用することができるものである。パソコンのキーボード操作を行なうときに、手がかじかんで指先が冷たくなっているとキーボード操作に支障がでる。このような場合に枠体１の上に手を置いて手指を内側面１ａや上面１ｃに触れることで手指を温めることができ、手指をスムーズに動かせるようになってキーボード操作ができるようになる。 In addition, the power input unit 7 of the embodiment can be connected to a USB power source in addition to an AC power source, and is used by connecting to a USB power source such as a personal computer even when there is no AC power outlet nearby. be able to. By connecting to a USB power source of a personal computer, the warmer can be placed near the keyboard and used as a hand warmer. When operating the keyboard of the computer, if the hand is pinching and the fingertip is cold, the keyboard operation will be hindered. In such a case, by placing a hand on the frame 1 and touching the fingers with the inner side surface 1a or the upper surface 1c, the fingers can be warmed, and the fingers can be moved smoothly so that the keyboard can be operated. .

ＵＳＢ電源を使用するときは交流電源よりも電力が低くなり、ヒータ２の最高温度は交流電源に接続するときよりも低くなるので、枠体１の表面温度も低くなる。飲料用の容器１１に入った飲み物の保温を行なうときは、枠体１の表面温度ができるだけ高くするため交流電源を使用すると良いが、パソコン作業時にハンドウォーマーとして使用するときには枠体１の表面温度は低くてもよく、ＵＳＢ電源に接続することで快適な使用感が得られるものである。
このように、交流電源に接続するかＵＳＢ電源に接続するかは、使用する場所や使用目的に合わせて適宜選択すればよく、電源を使い分けることで、使い勝手が向上できるものである。 When the USB power source is used, the power is lower than that of the AC power source, and the maximum temperature of the heater 2 is lower than when the heater 2 is connected to the AC power source, so that the surface temperature of the frame 1 is also reduced. When the beverage contained in the beverage container 11 is kept warm, an AC power supply may be used to make the surface temperature of the frame 1 as high as possible. However, when the personal computer is used as a hand warmer, the surface temperature of the frame 1 Can be low, and a comfortable feeling can be obtained by connecting to a USB power source.
In this way, whether to connect to an AC power source or a USB power source may be appropriately selected according to the place of use and purpose of use, and usability can be improved by properly using the power source.
