Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of heating engineering technology, specifically relating to an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating and its construction method. Background Technology

[0002] Building energy consumption accounts for a significant proportion of global total energy consumption, with heating energy consumption being a major component. Currently, the mainstream heating method, based on hydronic heating systems, faces several prominent issues in its installation and application.

[0003] First, the installation process is cumbersome and time-consuming. Traditional underfloor heating installation requires multiple steps and takes several days, and its quality is highly dependent on worker skills, which contradicts the "dry construction" and "rapid construction" concepts advocated by industrialized building. Second, the system's thermal efficiency and energy saving need improvement. Factors such as insulation layer performance, interlayer thermal resistance, and slow heat storage and heating limit overall energy efficiency. Third, the system structure is relatively thick, and multiple layers of laying and backfilling reduce the net indoor height. In addition, the controllability of construction quality is poor, relying on manual experience, making it difficult to achieve standardization and modularization, resulting in large quality fluctuations.

[0004] The clean and low-carbon transformation of building heating energy structures has become an inevitable trend. Electric heating, especially technologies combining it with renewable energy, has attracted much attention. While electric heating technologies such as electric heating film underfloor heating have improved installation convenience, the following pain points still exist in engineering applications:

[0005] First, the wiring is messy. The connection between the heating cable and the sensor needs to be grooved or buried in the leveling layer, which is complicated to construct and difficult to troubleshoot, often requiring the ground to be damaged.

[0006] Secondly, the edges are not aesthetically pleasing, and the joints between the modules and the wall are not easily finished neatly.

[0007] Third, the lack of dedicated maintenance channels and the absence of pre-set maintenance points in the system result in high maintenance costs and difficulties in the later stages.

[0008] Therefore, a floor heating system needs to be designed to solve the current technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0009] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating and its construction method.

[0010] The technical solution of this invention is: an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating, comprising:

[0011] Integrated underfloor heating module, chair-style skirting board, and flooring materials;

[0012] The integrated underfloor heating module is laid on top of the leveled base floor;

[0013] The chair-shaped skirting board is installed between the edge of the integrated floor heating module and the wall, and the chair-shaped skirting board is provided with a wire hole for the cable to be led out from the integrated floor heating module.

[0014] The flooring material is laid on top of the integrated underfloor heating module.

[0015] Furthermore, the chair-style skirting board includes a vertical plate, a top plate perpendicular to the vertical plate is provided on one side of the vertical plate, a side plate is vertically fixed on the top plate on the side opposite to the vertical plate, and a cavity is formed between the side plate, the top plate and the vertical plate; the wire hole is formed on the side plate.

[0016] Furthermore, the integrated floor heating module includes an insulation layer, an electric heating layer, and a bonding layer arranged sequentially from bottom to top; the insulation layer is used for heat insulation to reduce downward heat loss; the electric heating layer is used for heating by electricity to radiate heat upward; and the bonding layer is used to support and fix the flooring material.

[0017] Furthermore, the insulation layer is an aerogel insulation board.

[0018] Furthermore, the electric heating layer is an electric heating film.

[0019] Furthermore, the bonding layer is a fiber mesh fabric laid on top of the electric heating layer.

[0020] Furthermore, the bonding layer also includes a fiber mortar layer covering the fiber mesh fabric.

[0021] Furthermore, the paving material is a base plate or floor tiles.

[0022] Furthermore, the cavity of the chair-style skirting board is configured as a hidden cable channel extending from the edge of the integrated floor heating module to the wall; the wire hole serves as the entrance to this channel, and after the cable enters the cavity through the wire hole, it is completely contained and hidden within the cavity.

[0023] The installation method for the integrated skirting board system as described in any of the preceding items includes the following steps:

[0024] Ground preparation and module installation: Level the base floor and lay the integrated underfloor heating module directly on the base floor, leaving space between the edge of the integrated underfloor heating module and the wall for installing chair-style skirting boards;

[0025] Baseboard installation and wiring integration: Fix the chair-style baseboard along the base of the wall. Before fixing, pull all the cables from the integrated heating and cooling module through the wiring holes into the cavity behind the chair-style baseboard and complete the connection of all cables in the cavity of the chair-style baseboard.

[0026] Finishing layer installation and final finishing: The flooring material is directly laid on the integrated underfloor heating module, with the edges of the flooring material closely attached to the chair-style skirting board to form a finishing edge.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0028] (1) This invention provides an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating that integrates multiple functions such as wiring, maintenance, finishing, and fixing.

[0029] (2) The chair-style skirting board is installed between the edge of the integrated floor heating module and the wall to effectively limit the horizontal movement of the integrated floor heating module and prevent it from shifting.

[0030] (3) Chair-style skirting boards provide a precise cut-off edge for the final flooring material. When laying the flooring material, the edge of the flooring material can directly press against one side of the chair-style skirting board to form a neat and beautiful gap.

[0031] (4) All cables of the integrated floor heating module are introduced into the vertical cavity inside the chair-style skirting board from the horizontal direction of the ground through the cable hole, realizing complete concealment, neatness and centralized management of the line.

[0032] (5) The wiring hole serves as a permanent and accessible maintenance window. When maintenance is required on the wiring or a single integrated floor heating module, there is no need to damage any ground structure. The operation can be carried out directly from here, achieving convenient point-to-point, non-destructive maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0039] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating is disclosed, comprising:

[0040] 1. Integrated underfloor heating module; 3. Chair-style skirting board; and 2. Flooring material.

[0041] The integrated underfloor heating module 1 is laid on top of the leveled base floor;

[0042] The chair-style skirting board 3 is installed between the edge of the integrated floor heating module 1 and the wall. The chair-style skirting board 3 is provided with a wire hole 31 for the cable 121 of the integrated floor heating module 1 to pass through.

[0043] Flooring material 2 is laid on top of the integrated floor heating module 1.

[0044] In the above embodiments, an integrated skirting board system for dry underfloor heating is provided, integrating multiple functions such as wiring, maintenance, finishing, and fixing. The chair-style skirting board 3 is installed between the edge of the integrated underfloor heating module 1 and the wall, effectively limiting the horizontal movement of the module and preventing displacement. The chair-style skirting board 3 provides a precise cut-off edge for the final flooring material 2, allowing the edge of the flooring material 2 to directly press against one side of the chair-style skirting board 3 during installation, forming a neat and aesthetically pleasing gap. In some practical applications… In this example, the gap can be filled with elastic adhesive as a thermal expansion joint; all cables 121 of the integrated underfloor heating module 1 are introduced into the cavity 35 inside the chair-type skirting board 3 from the horizontal direction of the ground through the wiring hole 31, realizing complete concealment, neatness and centralized management of the wiring; the wiring hole 31 serves as a permanent and directly accessible maintenance window, so that when maintenance is required on the wiring or individual integrated underfloor heating module 1, no damage to any ground structure is required, and the operation can be carried out from here, realizing convenient point-to-point, non-destructive maintenance.

[0045] As one specific implementation of the chair-style skirting board 3, such as Figure 4 As shown, the chair-style skirting board 3 includes a vertical plate 32, a top plate 34 perpendicular to the vertical plate 32, and a side plate 33 vertically fixed on the side of the top plate 34 away from the vertical plate 32. A cavity 35 is formed between the side plate 33, the top plate 34, and the vertical plate 32. A wire hole 31 is opened on the side plate 33. The vertical plate 32 is attached to the wall surface. When laying, the edge of the flooring material 2 can directly press against the side of the side plate 33 away from the vertical plate 32, forming a neat and beautiful gap. All the cables 121 of the integrated underfloor heating module 1 are introduced into the cavity 35 inside the chair-style skirting board 3 from the horizontal direction of the ground through the wire hole 31, realizing complete concealment, neatness, and centralized management of the wiring.

[0046] In some embodiments, the integrated floor heating module 1 includes an insulation layer 11, an electric heating layer 12, and a bonding layer 13 arranged sequentially from bottom to top; the insulation layer 11 is used for heat insulation to reduce downward heat loss; the electric heating layer 12 is used for heating by electricity to radiate heat upward; and the bonding layer 13 is used to support and fix the flooring material.

[0047] As an example of insulation layer 11, insulation layer 11 is an aerogel insulation board.

[0048] As an example of the electric heating layer 12, the electric heating layer 12 is an electric heating film.

[0049] As an example of bonding layer 13, bonding layer 13 is a fiber mesh 131 laid on top of electric heating layer 12.

[0050] As an example of bonding layer 13, bonding layer 13 also includes a fiber mortar layer 132 covering the fiber mesh 131.

[0051] As an example of flooring material 2, flooring material 2 is a base plate or floor tile.

[0052] In some embodiments, the cavity 35 of the chair-style baseboard is configured as a concealed cable channel extending from the edge of the integrated floor heating module 1 to the wall.

[0053] The wire hole 31 serves as the entrance to the channel. After the cable 121 enters the cavity through the wire hole, it is completely contained and hidden inside the cavity.

[0054] In some embodiments, a method for constructing an integrated skirting board system as described in any of the above embodiments is disclosed, comprising the following steps:

[0055] Ground preparation and module installation: Level the base floor and lay the integrated underfloor heating module 1 directly on the base floor, leaving space between the edge of the integrated underfloor heating module 1 and the wall for installing the chair-style skirting board 3;

[0056] Baseboard installation and wiring integration: Fix the chair-type baseboard 3 along the base of the wall. Before fixing, pull all the cables 121 from the integrated heating and cooling module 1 through the wire hole 31 into the cavity 35 behind the chair-type baseboard 3. Complete the connection of all cables 121 in the cavity 35 of the chair-type baseboard 3.

[0057] Finishing layer installation and final finishing: The flooring material 2 is directly installed on the integrated underfloor heating module 1, with the edge of the flooring material 2 closely attached to one side of the upright panel of the chair-style skirting board 3 to form a finishing edge.

[0058] As a specific example of an integrated skirting board system construction method, the construction method of an integrated skirting board system includes the following steps:

[0059] Step 1, Floor Preparation: Thoroughly clean the base floor to ensure it is free of sand, dust, and oil. Use a 2-meter straightedge to check; areas with a height difference exceeding 3mm need to be leveled. Self-leveling cement is recommended for optimal flatness. Use a laser line projector to clearly mark the inner edge of the baseboard and the boundary line for the underfloor heating module along the wall. The boundary line should be approximately 15-20mm (the thickness of the baseboard) away from the inner edge of the baseboard to accommodate expansion joints and cable channels.

[0060] Step 2, Module Installation: Starting from one corner of the room, lay out the integrated underfloor heating modules closely along the installation boundary line, and securely connect the modules with their own clips or locking mechanisms; straighten the cables (power cables or signal cables) leading out from each module towards the nearest wall and temporarily bundle them with cable ties to ensure that all cable ends can easily reach the inner edge area of ​​the corresponding wall's baseboard.

[0061] Step 3, Baseboard Installation: Place the chair-style baseboard flush against the wall, aligning it with the inner edge. Place it temporarily and mark the fixing points on the wall. For each cable bundle, thread all the cables of the underfloor heating modules through the corresponding holes and pull them into the cavity behind the baseboard. Ensure the cables are smooth and without sharp bends during this process. Finally, fix the baseboard to the wall. Tighten the clips with screws or fix it directly.

[0062] Step 4, Circuit Integration: Inside the cavity, according to the design drawings, connect the cables from each module in parallel to the dedicated power main line through a splitter or waterproof terminal block; all joints must be secure and properly insulated; run the power main line and the thermostat probe cable to the thermostat mounting box; after completion, use a multimeter to test the resistance of each circuit to ensure correct connection and no short circuits or open circuits.

[0063] Step 5, Finishing layer installation: Apply flooring materials directly to the surface of the integrated underfloor heating module using conventional methods; such as click-lock flooring, full-adhesion flooring, or thin-layer ceramic tiles.

[0064] Step 6, Final Finishing: When laying the flooring, ensure that the edge of the flooring material is tightly against the inside of the chair-style baseboard; the resulting gap should be uniform and straight, usually less than 3mm; use elastic edge sealant or special edge strips that are similar in color to the baseboard or floor to seal the tiny gaps between the floor and the baseboard; this prevents dust and debris from entering the cavity behind the baseboard and also allows the flooring material to expand and contract with temperature changes.

[0065] Step 7, Debugging and Acceptance: Install the thermostat and connect the system power supply; turn on the underfloor heating system zone by zone, slowly increase the temperature, and check whether the heating is uniform; check the appearance of the skirting board, which should be flat and continuous, without undulations, and the gaps at the edges should be uniform and aesthetically pleasing.

[0066] The various embodiments of the present invention have now been described in detail. To avoid obscuring the concept of the invention, some details known in the art have not been described. Those skilled in the art will fully understand how to implement the technical solutions disclosed herein based on the above description.

[0067] The embodiments described above only illustrate some implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
