Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a forced water vapor extraction system utilizing solar energy that protects a waterproofing layer by exhausting moisture generated between a concrete substrate and a waterproofing layer to the outside. In particular, the invention relates to a forced water vapor extraction system utilizing solar energy that drives a motor and an exhaust fan using electricity produced from solar energy to forcibly draw in water vapor generated from the lower part of the waterproofing layer by solar energy and discharge it through a degassing hole of a discharge member, wherein moisture at the dew point formed during discharge also flows down along the inner diameter surface of the discharge member and is discharged through the degassing hole. Background Technology

[0003] In general, concrete structures such as rooftop slabs, roofs, basements of buildings, or various fluid storage tanks have poor waterproofing performance, so rainwater or groundwater can seep in. This leads to concrete deterioration or cracks in the concrete caused by changes in the volume of water due to temperature changes, which shortens the lifespan of the building.

[0004] Furthermore, since the infiltration or leakage of rainwater or groundwater through concrete cracks leads to the loss of a building's functionality, waterproofing technology to prevent the seepage of rainwater or groundwater into concrete structures is extremely important.

[0005] Waterproofing methods for such concrete structures include penetrating waterproofing and film-type waterproofing. Penetrating waterproofing is a method of applying a waterproofing material to the surface of concrete to densify the concrete itself and provide waterproofing, while film-type waterproofing is a method of forming multiple layers of impermeable waterproofing on the inside and outside of the structure to address cracks in concrete structures or other construction defects in buildings.

[0006] However, after a certain period of time, water vapor is generated due to the evaporation of moisture in the concrete caused by the difference between the moisture contained in the concrete itself and the external or internal temperature. This pressure of water vapor reduces the adhesive performance between the floor surface and the waterproofing layer, which causes delamination and forms a local air pocket between the floor surface and the surface layer.

[0007] Therefore, to prevent the occurrence of an air layer as described above, a degassing device (or referred to by names such as 'degassing pipe', 'degassing port', or 'degassing plate') is configured on the substrate surface where the waterproofing layer is formed to allow water vapor to be discharged to the outside, thereby preventing the formation of an air layer in the waterproofing layer through the smooth discharge of water vapor.

[0008] The conventional degassing device described above mainly used the method shown in Fig. 1.

[0009] That is, as shown in FIG. 1, a concrete base surface (10) or a floor surface is formed on the rooftop or upper part of the building with mortar, and a slab is formed on the upper part including an insulation layer and a mortar layer, and a degassing device is formed by integrating a ∩-shaped ventilation pipe (20) and a support plate (22) that supports the pipe.

[0010] Accordingly, the above-mentioned degassing device is installed by connecting a ∩-shaped ventilation pipe (20), which is supported by a base plate (22), to the waterproof layer (24), so that water vapor or moisture generated at the bottom of the waterproof layer (24) moves along the ventilation pipe and is discharged to the outside.

[0011] However, the conventional natural circulation type degassing device described above had the problem of low degassing efficiency.

[0012] In other words, conventional degassing devices have a problem in that the water vapor or moisture generated between the concrete base surface (10) and the waterproofing layer (24) is degassed only when there is a temperature difference or pressure difference greater than a certain level between the outside or inside, so the concrete base surface (10) and the waterproofing layer (24) always remain in a wet state until a certain temperature or pressure is reached.

[0013] These problems caused delamination and lifting between the concrete base surface (10) and the waterproofing layer (24) (of course, the frequency of occurrence is lower than in a structure without a degassing device), which ultimately shortened the service life of the waterproofing layer.

[0014] In addition, as a wet state is maintained between the concrete base surface (10) and the waterproofing layer (24), if cracks or damage occur in the concrete base surface (10), there is a problem of leakage occurring in the cracked or damaged part, and there is a problem of accelerating the aging of the building. The problem to be solved

[0016] The present invention was devised to solve the aforementioned problems. Based on the observation that during the day when the sun is shining, water vapor is generated on the concrete substrate surface beneath the waterproofing layer due to solar heat, and consequently, swelling occurs in the waterproofing layer, the invention aims to provide a forced water vapor extraction system using solar power that generates electricity using solar power during the day when the sun is shining and operates an exhaust fan with this power to forcibly suck in air and water vapor generated on the substrate surface beneath the waterproofing layer and discharge it to the outside, thereby preventing swelling of the waterproofing layer in advance. Furthermore, when the water vapor forcibly sucked in and discharged to the outside comes into contact with the discharge member and reaches the dew point, the water generated at that time is also discharged, thereby preventing the water generated at the dew point from flowing back into the waterproofing layer through the lower part of the guiding member, and thus maximizing the discharge effect of water vapor or moisture from the concrete substrate surface. means of solving the problem

[0018] The above objective is to provide a forced water vapor extraction system using sunlight that protects the waterproofing layer (110) by exhausting moisture generated between the concrete base surface (100) and the waterproofing layer (110) to the outside, wherein a circular or polygonal support member (212) of a certain width is formed to cover the waterproofing layer (110), and a guide member (210) that protrudes upward in a streamlined manner from the support member (212) to the upper part of the waterproofing layer (110), and has a guide space (214) in the shape of a cap formed on the inner side, and at least one degassing hole (216) formed on the upper outer diameter; and a discharge member (310) that is formed in the shape of a cap with an open bottom so as to be inserted and coupled to the upper outer diameter of the guide member (210), and has a plurality of discharge holes (312) formed on the outer diameter to discharge air degassed through the degassing hole (216) and water generated upon reaching the dew point. This is achieved by a forced water vapor extraction system using sunlight, characterized by comprising: a solar cell panel (410) coupled to the upper part of the discharge member (310) and converting light energy into electrical energy through a photoelectric effect from sunlight; an exhaust unit (510) in which a driving motor (514) installed inside a cylindrical or polygonal casing (512) coupled to the upper part of the inner diameter of the induction member (210) is driven by electricity supplied from the solar cell panel (410), causing an exhaust fan (516) connected to the driving motor (514) to rotate and forcibly suck air from the lower part of the induction member (210) upward and discharge it; and a coupling means for the exhaust unit to combine the exhaust unit with the induction member (210).

[0019] And, the coupling means of the exhaust unit comprises a coupling groove (218) having a groove structure that extends circularly along the inner diameter surface of the induction member (210); and a coupling projection (518) that protrudes around the outer diameter surface of the casing of the exhaust unit so as to be inserted into the coupling groove (218).

[0020] Additionally, it is preferable to further include a stopper (220) formed on the outer diameter of the guiding member (210) to allow the lower end of the discharge member (310) to be seated. Effects of the invention

[0022] The present invention receives electricity from a solar panel that generates electricity by sunlight during the day, and when the driving motor of an exhaust unit coupled to the inner diameter of an induction member rotates, the exhaust fan connected to the driving motor rotates, thereby forcibly sucking in air from the induction space inside the induction member and discharging it through the upper discharge hole. Some of the discharged moisture or air is discharged through the discharge hole, while another portion of the moisture or air comes into contact with the discharge member and reaches the dew point, causing it to liquefy into water and flow. At this time, the generated water flows along the inner diameter surface of the exhaust member or the upper outer diameter of the induction member and is discharged to the outside through the discharge hole, thereby preventing the water generated at the dew point from flowing back into the waterproof layer through the lower part of the induction member, and thus has the effect of maximizing the discharge of water vapor or moisture from the concrete base surface. Brief explanation of the drawing

[0024] FIG. 1 is a drawing illustrating the structure of a conventional degassing plate. FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the configuration of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the structure and operation of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating another embodiment of the present invention. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0025] The configuration and operation of a forced water vapor extraction system using sunlight according to the present invention will be explained as follows with reference to the attached FIGS. 2 to 4.

[0026] The present invention's forced water vapor extraction system using solar energy forcibly sucks in moisture and air generated between the concrete base surface (100) and the waterproof layer (110) and exhausts them to the outside to protect the waterproof layer (110). As shown in FIG. 3, it is installed on the concrete base surface (100), and a circular or polygonal support member (212) of a certain width is formed at the bottom so as to be covered by the waterproof layer (110) installed on the concrete base surface (100).

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, the guiding member (210) has a structure in which a hollow structure protrudes upward from the support member (212) above. The structure is such that the lower part of the support member (212) is wide and the upper part becomes narrower as it goes upward, forming a streamlined hollow structure with a guiding space (214) so ​​that air, water vapor, or moisture (hereinafter referred to as moisture) generated from the base surface can be guided upward. At least one degassing hole (216) is formed on the upper outer diameter of the guiding member (210) so that moisture rising from the concrete base surface (100) is discharged from the upper part of the guiding member (210) out of the guiding member (210).

[0028] The above-mentioned degassing hole (216) may be formed as one large hole as shown in FIG. 3, but it is also desirable to form a plurality of small degassing holes (216) as shown in FIG. 4 to increase the discharge rate of moisture by allowing the small degassing holes (216) to pass through a wide space.

[0029] And, as shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, a discharge member (310) is inserted and coupled to the upper outer diameter of the guiding member (210). As shown, the discharge member (310) causes moisture discharged through the degassing hole (216) of the guiding member (210) to collide with the inner diameter surface of the guiding member (210) and then be discharged through the discharge hole (312) of the discharge member (310).

[0030] Here, it is preferable to form a catch (220) on the outer diameter of the guiding member (210) so that the lower end of the discharge member (310), which is inserted downward from the upper part of the guiding member (210), can be seated on the catch (220), thereby enabling a stable coupling structure.

[0031] In addition, the present invention has a structure in which an exhaust unit (510) is installed and fixed on the inner diameter surface of an induction member (210), wherein the exhaust unit (510) has a drive motor (514) fixedly coupled by a plurality of ribs (512a) inside a through-type casing (512) which is cylindrical or polygonal, and an exhaust fan (516) is mounted on a drive shaft above or below the drive motor (514).

[0032] The exhaust unit (510) coupled to the above-mentioned guiding member (210) can be forcibly inserted and fixed into the inner diameter surface in a press-fit manner. At this time, an adhesive may be applied to the outer diameter surface of the casing (512) before insertion and fixation to maintain a stable fixed state. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2, a coupling projection (518) may be formed protrudingly around the outer diameter surface of the casing (512), and a coupling groove (218) may be formed on the inner diameter surface of the guiding member (210). When the casing (512) is strongly pushed upward, the coupling projection (518) of the casing (512) may be forcibly inserted into the coupling groove (218), thereby maintaining a strong and stable coupling force.

[0033] Meanwhile, a solar cell panel (410) may be bolted to the upper part of the discharge member (310) or joined by spot welding. Since the connection structure between the discharge member (310) and the solar cell panel (410) can be adopted and changed in various ways according to the present invention, it is not limited to such cases and can be adopted and changed.

[0034] The solar cell panel (410) coupled to the upper part of the above-mentioned discharge member (310) is also called a solar cell panel, and since it is a technology that is commonly and widely known as equipment for converting sunlight into electricity, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0035] The above solar panel (410) is electrically connected to the drive motor (514) of the exhaust unit (410), so that when electricity generated from the solar panel (410) is supplied to the drive motor (514), the drive motor (514) is driven, and at this time, the exhaust fan (516) rotates to suck in air and moisture from the induction space (214) of the induction member (210) and forcibly discharge them upwards to be exhausted into the degassing hole (216).

[0036] Accordingly, when the moisture and air in the above-mentioned induction space (214) are forcibly discharged, the humid air generated on the concrete base surface (100) by sunlight is forcibly sucked in by the exhaust fan (516) and exhausted upward through the degassing hole (216).

[0037] At this time, when moisture forcibly discharged through the above-mentioned degassing hole (216) collides with the inner diameter of the discharge member (310), a dew point may be formed due to the temperature difference between the temperature of the discharge member (310) and the moisture, and at this time, the formed water flows down along the inner diameter surface of the discharge member (310) and is discharged through the discharge hole (312).

[0038] That is, as water flows down along the inner surface of the discharge member (310), the water does not flow into the degassing hole (216), and accordingly, the phenomenon of water formed between the discharge member (310) and the guiding member (210) flowing into the concrete base surface can be fundamentally eliminated, thereby maximizing the effect of discharging moisture inside the guiding member (210).

[0039] Accordingly, moisture flowing into the induction space (214) of the induction member (210) can be rapidly exhausted from the induction space (214) of the induction member (210) through the exhaust fan (516) of the exhaust member (510) coupled to the induction member (310) to the space between the induction member (210) and the exhaust member (310) through the exhaust hole (216), which is narrower than the induction space (214), and then discharged through the exhaust hole (312).
