Greenhouses tend to get very humid, and this tendency has become stronger in recent years, especially with improvements in insulation covering technology.
This is something that many growers are concerned about, as it leads to a decline in the quality of the plants. Ventilation is the quickest way to reduce indoor humidity, but this has the disadvantage of wasting energy from high temperatures indoors. There is also a method using a total heat exchanger, but at present the thermal efficiency (enthalpy efficiency) is quite low at less than 50%. Next, heating the air with a boiler or the like will reduce the relative humidity all at once, but this has the disadvantage of consuming a considerable amount of oil.
Furthermore, although electric dehumidifiers using refrigeration cycles have recently been used, they are relatively expensive and consume considerable electrical energy, leaving many points in the way of conventional methods.

In order to achieve the above object, a dehumidifying device according to the present invention houses a dehumidifying member in a box having an intake port and an exhaust port, and also includes a blower for blowing air around the dehumidifying member and a dehumidifying member. The device includes a weighing scale for weighing, a display for displaying the saturation state detected by the weighing scale, a humidity sensor for detecting indoor humidity, and a control means for controlling indoor dehumidification operation and regeneration operation of the dehumidification member. In this dehumidifying device, the moisture-absorbing material of the dehumidifying member is made of a highly water-absorbing polymer that has heat-absorbing and moisture-releasing properties at room temperature, and when the dehumidifying member is saturated and the indoor humidity is below the low humidity setting value, The structure includes a controller that blows low-humidity air to regenerate the dehumidifying member.

ある。 Super absorbent polymers used as dehumidifying materials are, for example, semi-synthetic products obtained by graft polymerizing acrylonitrile on starch and hydrolysis, and synthetic products obtained by copolymerizing vinyl acetate and methyl acrylate. There are some products that can be obtained by saponification. Super water-absorbent polymers have high heat absorption and moisture release properties (breathability) even at room temperature and in the atmosphere, making them ideal for energy-saving humidity control.Also, they have high adhesiveness when absorbing moisture (water). It is an extremely effective material for controlling agricultural environments such as greenhouses because it is ideal for processing into paper, cloth, etc. to form any moisture-absorbing material shape.

According to the present invention, the indoor temperature and humidity are measured by the temperature sensor and the humidity sensor, and are input to the controller. When the humidity exceeds the high humidity setting value, the blower is activated by the output of the controller and dehumidification operation is performed. The humid air flowing in from the inlet is dehumidified while passing through the dehumidifying member, and the dry air is discharged into the room. On the other hand, the weight of the dehumidifying member is measured by a weighing scale, and the saturation state due to the increase in weight of the dehumidifying member is displayed on the display and inputted to the controller. When the temperature in the room becomes high enough to be higher than the set value and the humidity becomes lower than the low humidity set value, the blower is activated and a regeneration operation is performed, and the dehumidifying member is regenerated.

Humid air flows in from the inlet 9 and is dehumidified by passing between the moisture absorbing materials 6,
Dry air will be discharged from the outlet in the direction of the arrow. FIG. 4B shows an example of installation in a large greenhouse or the like, and a dry air dispersion duct 11 is connected to the discharge port. Diffusion duct 1

の効率は大巾に向上する。 The above has mainly described the dehumidification function, but below, the regeneration function will be explained.
That is, after absorbing moisture, the moisture-absorbing material must be regenerated by releasing moisture by some means in order to be used repeatedly. Normally, the dehumidifying operation is performed at night, and on the other hand, the humidity inside the room is relatively low during the day, so the regeneration operation may be performed during the day. As a method, in the example of Figure 4,
The easiest way to do this is to continue driving during the day. However, the humidity inside the room increases to some extent because the moisture is released into the room. Next, the example shown in FIG. 5 uses outside air with lower humidity, and has the advantage of not increasing indoor humidity. FIG. 5A shows a configuration in which an outside air introduction duct 13 is provided at the intake port, and operation is performed by switching between this and the indoor air inlet 9 using a switching valve 14. By doing so, the hygroscopic material 6 is well regenerated by the low humidity and fresh outside air, and the effect of fertilizing the greenhouse with CO 2 is also produced, which is convenient. In addition, in this example, moisture absorbing material 6 is also placed inside the greenhouse.
However, since outside air is mixed in, an increase in indoor temperature due to regeneration is hardly a problem. The effect is further improved by making the duct 13 metallic and by attaching fins 13' to the indoor portion. Figure 5 b is
This is an example in which a configuration for reducing heat loss due to the introduction of outside air is added. That is, the outside air introduction duct 16 is
It has a double structure, with the outer peripheral passage serving as the introduction passage.
Moreover, the central passage serves as a discharge passage. Flow path switching to these ducts is performed by a switching valve 14.
In other words, as the outside air, which has lower humidity but also lower temperature, exchanges heat with the warmer discharge air as it passes through the duct 16, its temperature increases, and the relative humidity further decreases, causing the regeneration operation to fail. flows in under favorable conditions, so the efficiency of regeneration is greatly improved.

るのであつて、例えば、除湿装置の中が低温にな
りすぎて、再生能率が低下したとき等に、温室の
熱を利用してこの運転をすれば再生の能率は元に
もどる。 On the other hand, the air that has absorbed moisture during the regeneration passes through the discharge passage and is cooled and released outside while exchanging heat with the inflowing outside air, so in the end, the amount of heat carried out from inside the greenhouse due to the regeneration is minimized. It can be stopped within limits. The duct 16 serves as a total heat exchanger. In addition,
The discharge port 17 is used when it is necessary to pass indoor air directly through the duct 16 to warm the incoming air. For example, when the temperature inside the dehumidifier becomes too low and the regeneration efficiency decreases. If this operation is performed using the heat from the greenhouse, the regeneration efficiency will be restored to its original level.

とになる。 Several other examples will be described. That is, (1) if the box of the dehumidifying device is made transparent and the dehumidifying element 6 is made black, the storage of energy during the daytime increases, the efficiency of moisture release improves, and this becomes convenient for regeneration operation. (2) As a means for adding energy for regeneration, in addition to the above, it is also effective to connect an air-type heat collector to an outside air introduction duct to further raise the temperature of outside air before introducing it into the device. (3) In some cases, the dehumidifying device 2 as a whole may be configured so that only the moisture absorbing element is taken outside to release moisture and dry. For this purpose, a moving device such as casters may be attached to the bottom of the box. It is also convenient to use a cassette system, for example, so that the elements can be easily put in and taken out of the case and converted. (4) In order to display the saturation status or regeneration status of the dehumidifier, it is recommended to install a weight scale such as a spring balance or a load cell. As a result, if a certain device becomes saturated during dehumidification operation, it becomes possible to immediately operate a spare device or cassette, while during regeneration operation, depending on the regeneration situation, several types of regeneration methods described above can be used. It becomes possible to select at any time, which leads to energy-saving operation. (5) Low temperatures both indoors and outdoors during the day, such as on cloudy days,
When the humidity is high, the efficiency of regeneration operation decreases, so if the device is equipped with an auxiliary heater and activated to add auxiliary energy, the efficiency of regeneration can be maintained. (6) If the moisture-absorbing material is folded and the structure is such that it can be taken out and expanded at night by opening and closing the door of the box, and then contracted and sealed in the box during the day, it is possible to There is no need to run a blower during dehumidification, which not only saves energy, but also eliminates the need to agitate the indoor air.
The evaporation of water vapor from the earth's surface can be suppressed to a minimum, resulting in the effect that the overall humidity can be lowered more quickly. (7) In order to reduce the air flow velocity near the ground surface as much as possible and prevent water vapor from escaping from the ground surface, it is also possible to install the dissipation duct and intake duct near the ceiling as shown in Figures 4 and 5. Effective. Finally, the indoor humidity and moisture absorption/desorption (effects) in a series of operations of dehumidification and regeneration will be explained with reference to FIG. In other words, time T is plotted on the horizontal axis.
(hours), and the vertical axis shows the weight W (g) of the dehumidifying element and the indoor humidity RH (%), respectively. now,
At night, by the humidity sensor 21 and controller 18,
When dehumidifying operation is started at time T 1 when the humidity becomes high (humidity set value 95% or higher), the weight W of the moisture absorbing material gradually increases as the amount of moisture absorbed increases, and due to the inverse relationship, the indoor humidity decreases. RH decreases as shown in (b).
The saturation state is then displayed on a display (not shown). If there is no dehumidifying operation during this period, the humidity will remain at almost 100% as shown in (a), which means that the operation of this device could prevent the humidity from becoming too humid at night.
次に、朝例えば９時以降T2の時刻になると、
室内は高温、かつ低湿（低湿設定値80％以下）と

障は生じない。従つて、この再生運転によつて、
次の除湿運転（時刻T3）への準備が完了したこ
とになる。 Next, when the time T 2 comes after 9 o'clock in the morning, for example,
Since the indoor temperature is high and the humidity is low (low humidity setting value 80% or less), when regeneration operation is started, the moisture-absorbing material releases moisture, and the weight W gradually decreases accordingly. Since the indoor humidity RH does not increase significantly due to this amount of moisture released, no particular problem occurs. Therefore, by this regeneration operation,
This means that preparations for the next dehumidification operation (time T 3 ) have been completed.
このようにして、除湿・再生のサイクルが単な

わかる。 In this way, a cycle of dehumidification and regeneration is permanently possible by simply operating the blower. In other words, by operating this device all day long, the humidity in the room will be neither too high nor too low.
It can be seen that it is possible to maintain the humidity within a moderate range, in other words, it has the effect of acting as a humidity buffer.
なお、本発明は居住空間の除湿装置として利用
することも有効である。 Note that the present invention can also be effectively used as a dehumidifying device for a living space.
次に吸湿材料の一実施例を第１図〜第３図を参
照しながら説明する。 Next, an example of a moisture-absorbing material will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

果によつて確実に接着状態となる。 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing the relationship between a moisture-absorbing material and a ventilation material sandwiching it, where 1 is, for example, a granular super-absorbent polymer, 2 is, for example, Japanese paper, and 3
is, for example, a powdered superabsorbent polymer. With this configuration, the contact area between the hygroscopic material and the air can be maximized, and the hygroscopic material can be properly fixed, resulting in a dehumidifying material that can withstand repeated use over a long period of time. In order to more completely fix the ventilation material 2, it is preferable to glue or sew it at important points at appropriate pitches.
The method for applying this polymer to Japanese paper is to first absorb water and moisten the Japanese paper, then sprinkle a thin layer of polymer on top of it, then cover it with another piece of Japanese paper and pressurize it. The polymer absorbs some of the water in the washi paper and turns it into a sol, which makes it sticky and sticks well. Alternatively, by dissolving this polymer in water and making it into a sol, applying this to Japanese paper, etc., then adhering another Japanese paper on top of this, and then drying the whole thing to the extent that the polymer does not gel. The adhesive effect of this polymer ensures that both Japanese papers are in a bonded state.

大きくなり、除湿効率が向上する。 Next, in Figure 2, the moisture-absorbing material is applied to strands such as fibers,
Fig. 2A shows a cross-sectional view of an example in which it is directly attached.
For example, this is an example in which granular super-absorbent polymers are tied to a string in a string, and as an application of this method, it is also good to attach the granular material to the bonding points of network fibers. Figure 2 (b) is an example in which a superabsorbent polymer is attached to a wire in the form of a rod. With this configuration, the contact area between the moisture-absorbing material and the air becomes even larger than in the example shown in FIG. 1, and the dehumidification efficiency is improved.

し得る。 Figure 3 shows the above moisture-absorbing materials and the materials.
An example will be shown in which the dehumidification capacity as a whole is increased by stacking or folding as appropriate. Arrows indicate air flow. Note that in the present invention, the dehumidification operation and the regeneration operation may use exactly the same ventilation mode, and therefore a constant ventilation operation is sufficient, so that the device can be made extremely simple.

According to the present invention, a hygroscopic material made of a super absorbent polymer is housed in a box, and a blower, a weighing scale, a sensor, and a controller are incorporated, so that low-humidity air is blown below the low-humidity setting value to regenerate the hygroscopic material. It is possible to maintain the indoor humidity within a moderate range, neither too much nor too little, and the same ventilation mode is required for dehumidification and regeneration operations, making it a simple device as it only requires constant ventilation operation. There is a certain effect.
