[0029] Furthermore, in the cold/hot heating apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 12, a heat transfer device for recovering the heat held by the regenerated reaction material into a second heating container sealed with a heating medium is added to the reaction material. It is placed near the reaction material in the material container.

[0030]

[Function] First, it is composed of a cold container in which a heat medium is sealed, and the reactant material in the reactant container and the heat medium in the cold container are transferred from the heat medium to the reactant material. They are thermally coupled by a heat transfer device that transfers heat in the direction, and the cold heat container is provided with a cold heat extraction means, so that when the cold heat generated in the reactant material container is stored in the cold heat container. ,
A unidirectional heat transfer device effectively stores cold energy. In other words, when the reactant material in the reactant material container temporarily becomes high in temperature, the cold heat transfer of the unidirectional heat transfer device automatically stops, and the temperature of the reactant material becomes higher than the heat medium in the cold heat container. Cold energy is transported into the cooling container only when the temperature is low. Further, the cold heat extraction means allows cold heat to be taken out when desired.

[0031]Also, even if a part of the cooling/heating container is thermally connected to the lower part of the reactant material container, and the cooling/heating container is provided with means for extracting cold heat, the convection of the heating medium may be prevented. Since this is less likely to occur, the cold can be transported into a cold container.

[0032] The pipe also includes a heat exchanger provided with a cooling means, which is installed near the reactant container, so that the reactant container is elongated, and the lower part of the reactant material container is Since it is equipped with a means for extracting cold heat,
Since convection of the heat medium is less likely to occur, cold energy can be transported into the cold energy container.

[0033] Secondly, it is composed of a heating container in which a heating medium is sealed, and the reactant material provided in the pipe and the heating medium in the heating container are connected to the upper part of the reactant material container. is thermally coupled by a heat transfer device that transfers heat in one direction from the reactant material to the heat medium, and the heating container is provided with means for extracting heat, so that the heat generated during regeneration of the reactant material is To recover the heat, a unidirectional heat transfer device is used to transport the heat to the heat medium in the heating container. The heat stored in the heating container does not return to its original direction via the heat transfer device and is dissipated, so that the heat dissipation loss due to this is suppressed to a small level. Such an effect is similarly exhibited even when the operating temperatures of the reactant container and the reactant container change, and the temperature of the steam moving in the pipe connecting them changes. In addition, when relatively low-temperature steam moves from the reactant container to the reactant container via the pipe during heat dissipation of the reactant, the heat stored in the heating container is
No heat is dissipated to the steam moving in the pipe via the heat transfer device.

[0034] Also, a heating container in which a heat medium is sealed and a heat exchanger is provided, the reactant container, the heat exchanger and the reactant container are connected, and the heat exchanger is connected to the reactor container. a first pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the reactant between the reactor and the reactant container; a first pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the reactant; a means for controlling the movement of the reactant from the heating container to the reactant container; A second pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the second reactant on the way from the means to the reactant container side, and a heat exchanger equipped with a cooling means in the vicinity of the reactant material container. In addition, since the heating container is provided with a means for extracting thermal heat, the thermal heat generated during regeneration of the reaction material is recovered and transported to the heat medium in the heating container. At this time, since a means for controlling the movement of the second reactant is provided, by switching these means, relatively low temperature steam does not pass through, and therefore the heat stored in the heating container is There is no heat dissipation, and the heat dissipation loss based on this can be suppressed to a small level.

[0035] Furthermore, at least two containers for reactants containing reactants, at least two containers for reactants containing reactants and heating means for the reactants, and a heating medium sealed inside. At the same time, the movement of the reactant material is controlled during the process of connecting a heating container provided with at least two heat exchangers and the container for the reactant material, and connecting the heat exchanger and the container for the reactant material in correspondence with each other. a first pipe having means for controlling the reaction material; a first pipe having a reactant container closer to the heating container than the reactant material container; and a reactant container closer to the reactant material container than the means for controlling the movement of the reactant material; A second pipe having means for controlling the movement of the second reactant on the way between the container and the reactant container, and a heat exchanger equipped with a cooling means in the vicinity of the reactant material container. At the same time, the heating container is provided with a means for taking out the heat, and the movement of each of the reactant materials is controlled so that the heat dissipation and regeneration operations of the at least two reactant material containers and the reactant container are sequentially and alternately switched. Since the controlling means is controlled, it is possible to operate alternately in addition to the above-mentioned effects, allowing for more continuous heat transport.

[0036] Furthermore, a reactant container containing a reactant, a heating container in which a heat medium is sealed and a heat exchanger provided inside, and a reactant and heating means for the reactant are combined. At least two reactant containers stored therein, the reactant container, and the heat exchanger are connected to each reactant container in a corresponding manner, with means for controlling the movement of the reactant. a first pipe, a reactant container closer to the reactant container than the heating container, and a reactant container closer to the reactant container than the means for controlling movement of the reactant material; A second pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the second reactant on its way to the container, and a heat exchanger equipped with a cooling means near the container for the reactant, and a heat exchanger for heating. The same applies to a configuration in which the container is provided with a means for extracting heat, and the means for controlling the movement of each reactant is controlled so that the heat dissipation and regeneration operations of the at least two reactant containers are sequentially and alternately switched. It is.

Third, a heating container in which a heat medium is sealed and a heat exchanger is provided, the reactant container, the heat exchanger and the reactant container are connected, and the heat exchanger is connected to the reactor container. A first pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the reactant between the heat exchanger and the reactant container; It consists of a second pipe having a means for controlling the movement of the second reactant on the way from the controlling means to the reaction material container side, and a cooling container in which a heating medium is sealed, The container and the reactant container are thermally coupled by a heat transfer device, and the cold container is provided with a means for extracting cold heat. Since heat is transferred to the heat medium by a heat exchanger in the container, and a unidirectional heat transfer device is used to transfer the cold heat generated in the reactant container to the cold heat container, the cold heat is effectively stored. In addition, at this time, since a means for controlling the movement of the second reactant material is provided, by switching these, the warm heat stored in the heating container is not dissipated, but is dissipated based on this. Loss is kept small, and when the temperature of the reactant in the reactant container temporarily becomes high, the cold heat transfer of the unidirectional heat transfer device automatically stops, and the heat transfer from the heat medium in the cold heat transfer device is suppressed. Cold energy is transported into the cooling container only when the temperature of the reactant reaches a low temperature.

[0038] Also, a first pipe that connects the reactant material container and the reactant container and has means for controlling the movement of the reactant material in the middle, and is connected to the reactant material container, and a second pipe connected between the first valve and the reactant container and having a means for controlling the movement of the reactant in the middle; a cold container containing a heat medium; a heat transfer device that is thermally coupled to the first pipe in the vicinity of the reaction material container and transfers heat in one direction to the heat medium in the heating container, and The heating container is provided with a means for taking out hot heat, and heat is transferred in one direction from the reactant material to the heating medium between the reactant material in the reactant material container and the heat medium in the cooling container. They are thermally coupled by a transfer device, and the cooling container is provided with a means for extracting cold heat, so that the heat exchanger in the heating container is used to recover the warm heat generated during the regeneration of the reactant. Since a unidirectional heat transfer device is used to transport the heat and transfer the heat generated in the reaction material container to the heat container, the heat is effectively stored. At this time, since a means for controlling the movement of the second reacted material is provided, by switching these, the heat stored in the heating container will not be dissipated, and the heat dissipation loss based on this will be reduced. Can be kept small.

[0039]Furthermore, the cooling/heating device according to any one of claims 1 to 4 is provided with a heating container in which a heating medium is sealed, and the heating medium and the reacted material are thermally separated. Since a second heat transfer device is provided for coupling, in order to recover the heat generated during the regeneration of the reactant, the heat exchanger in the heating container is used to transport the heat to the heat medium, and the heat generated in the container for the reactant is transferred to the heat medium. Since a unidirectional heat transfer device is used to transfer the cold energy to the cold energy container, the cold energy is effectively stored. Since a unidirectional heat transfer device is used to transport heat to the heat medium in the heat container, the heat stored in the heat container returns to its original direction via the heat transfer device to dissipate the heat. The heat dissipation loss based on this can be suppressed to a small level.

[0040] Furthermore, the cooling/thermal heating device according to any one of claims 6 to 10 is provided with a cooling/heating container in which a heating medium is sealed, and a second container for thermally coupling the heating medium and the reacted material.
The system is equipped with a heat transfer device, so in order to recover the hot heat generated during the regeneration of reactants, the heat exchanger inside the heating container transports the heat to the heating medium, and the cold heat generated in the reactant container is transferred to the cooling medium. Since a unidirectional heat transfer device is used in the container, cold energy is effectively stored. In addition, when the temperature of the reactant in the reactant material container temporarily becomes high, the cold heat transfer of the unidirectional heat transfer device automatically stops, and the temperature of the reactant material is lower than that of the heat medium in the cooling container. Cold energy is transported into the cooling container only when the temperature is low. In addition, by the means for extracting cold heat,
Cold heat can be taken out when desired.

Fourthly, in the cooling and heating apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 12, a heat transfer device for recovering the heat held by the regenerated reaction material into the heating container is installed in the reaction material container. Since it is placed near the reaction material, the heat held by the reaction material after regeneration can be recovered into the heating container, reducing power loss and heat loss.

[0042] Further, in the cold/hot heating apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 12, a heat transfer device for recovering the heat held by the regenerated reaction material into a second heating container sealed with a heating medium is added to the reaction material. Because it is placed near the reaction material in the material container,
Similarly, the heat held by the regenerated reaction material can be recovered into the second heating container, thereby reducing power loss and heat loss, and storing heat at two temperature levels.

[0043]

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 1 to 7. As shown in FIG.
A reactant material container 1 containing a reactant material 3 made of silica, etc., a reactant material 4 containing a reactant material 4 made of zeolite, silica gel, lithium bromide, etc., and a heating element 5 for heating the reactant material 4.
The reaction material container 2 provided with the reaction material container 2 is connected to the reaction material container 2 by a pipe 7 having a valve 6 in the middle, as shown in the figure. This valve 6 is opened and closed by a control device (not shown). A heat medium 9 consisting of water, oil, etc. in the upper space of the reactant material container 1 and the heating container 8 is thermally transferred by a unidirectional heat transfer device 14 typified by a heat pipe as shown in the figure. is combined with This heat transfer device 14 is filled with an evaporative liquid 15 made of methanol, fluorocarbon, or the like. In this case, the amount of evaporative liquid 15 sealed may be small. Further, the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 and the heat medium 12 in the cold/heat container 11 are thermally coupled by a unidirectional heat transfer device 16 as shown. This heat transfer device 16 is filled with an evaporative liquid 17 made of methanol, ammonia, or the like. In this case as well, like the evaporative liquid 15 in the heat transfer device 14, the amount of liquid sealed may be small. Further, a heat exchanger 10 for taking out hot heat is provided in the container 8 for heating, and a heat exchanger 13 for taking out cold heat is provided in the container 11 for cold heat.

The heat dissipation and regeneration operations of the cooling/heating device constructed as described above are carried out as follows. First, in the heat dissipation operation, when the valve 6, which is a means for controlling the movement of the reacted material, is opened, the reacted material 3 passes through the pipe 7,
It is adsorbed by the reaction material 4 in the reaction material container 2, and the temperature of the reaction material 4 increases due to the heat of adsorption (or heat of reaction) caused by this. On the other hand, the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 is cooled as it evaporates. Therefore, the heat held by the heat medium 12 in the cold/heat container 11 is transferred to the evaporative liquid in the heat transfer device 16 due to the temperature difference between the heat medium 12 and the reacted material 3.
Due to the evaporation action of 7, the reactant is transported to the reacted material 3 side. In other words, the cold heat generated in the three parts of the reacted material is transferred to the heat medium 12 in the cold heat container 11. This cold energy is taken out via the heat exchanger 13 and used for freezing, cooling, etc.

[0045] When the adsorption capacity of the reactant material 4 is lost due to such a heat dissipation operation, the reactant material 4 is heated by the heating element 5, which is a heating means, and a regeneration operation is started. This cooling/heating device mainly generates cold energy, but in order to recover and effectively utilize the warm heat generated when the reaction material 4 is heated and regenerated by the heating element 5, the following measures are taken. It has been devised. The vapor of the reactant material 3 generated by the regeneration operation moves through the pipe 7 in the opposite direction to that during the heat dissipation operation, and is introduced into the reactant material container 1. During this process, the vapor gathers at the lower end of the heat transfer device 14, releases latent heat of condensation on its surface, and liquefies. This condensation heat is transported into the heat medium 9 in the heating container 8 by the evaporation action of the liquid in the heat transfer device 14 due to the temperature difference between the condensation temperature and the heat medium 9. The heat generated during the regeneration of the reaction material 4 is taken out via a heat exchanger 10 provided in the heating container 8 and used for hot water supply, space heating, and the like. Further, the reactant material 3 liquefied at the lower end of the heat transfer device 14 in the reactant material container 1 becomes droplets and falls to the lower part, and is returned into the reactant material container 1 . At this time, the temperature of the reacted material 3 accumulated at the bottom may rise due to the residual heat of the droplets. However, even if the temperature increases due to the heat medium in the cold/heat container 11, the heat transfer device 16 has the property of transmitting heat only in one direction, that is, from the bottom to the top. Heat is not transferred to the heat medium 12. In other words, only cold energy is collected in the heat medium 12 in the cold energy container 11. Conversely, during the heat dissipation operation, the reacted material 3 evaporates, and the relatively low temperature steam generated at that time is transferred to the heat transfer device 1.
Even if the steam contacts the lower end of the heating medium 9, if the temperature of the steam is lower than the temperature of the heating medium 9 in the heating container 8, the temperature of the heating medium 9 will increase due to the unidirectional heat transport action of the heat transfer device 14. No heat is transferred to the relatively lower temperature steam. Therefore, only warm heat is collected in the heat medium 9 in the heat container 8. Such heat dissipation operation and regeneration operation can be performed or stopped by opening and closing the valve 6. In addition, even without using the valve 6, as a means to control the movement of the reactant material, inert gas is taken in and out from a cylinder or the like into this system to adjust the partial pressure of the gas, thereby controlling the evaporation or movement of the reactant material 3. This can also be achieved through restraint. Hereinafter, means for controlling the movement of the reacted material will be explained using a valve as an example.

FIG. 2 shows the configuration of a cooling/heating device which is another modification of this embodiment. The structure and operation of this embodiment are the same as those of the embodiment shown in FIG. It is designed so that it can be taken out and used as is. In this case, the heating container 8 includes a water inlet pipe 21 and a valve 19, and a water outlet pipe 20.
and a valve 18, and a water inlet pipe 25 for the cold/heat container 11.
and a valve 23, and a water outlet pipe 24 and valve 22 are provided as shown. By doing so, when water is used as a heat medium, the water can be directly circulated. Note that, as in this embodiment, the lower end of the heat transfer device 14 may be provided below the liquid level of the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1; Although the temperature rises, it is cooled by the heat transport action of the heat transfer device 14.

FIG. 3 shows the configuration of a cooling/heating device which is another modification of this embodiment. The structure and operation of this embodiment are the same as those of the embodiment shown in FIG. They are thermally coupled by a heat transfer device 70 typified by a circulating thermosyphon consisting of a vessel 30, a heat exchanger 31, and pipes 26, 27 connecting them. or,
As shown in the figure, the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 and the heat medium in the cold/heat container 11 are circulated by a heat exchanger 32, a heat exchanger 33, and pipes 28 and 29 connecting them. They are thermally coupled by a heat transfer device 71 typified by a thermosyphon. The circulating thermosyphon 70 is filled with an evaporative liquid such as methanol or fluorocarbon (a small amount may be used), and like the heat pipe 14 shown in FIGS. It has the effect of transporting heat only in one direction. In addition, methanol is contained in the circulating thermosyphon 71.
The heat pipe 16 is filled with an evaporative liquid such as carbon dioxide or ammonia (a small amount may be used), and has the function of transporting heat in only one direction, similar to the heat pipe 16 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the configuration of a heating/cooling device to which another circulating thermosiphon is applied. In this embodiment, the heat transfer devices 72 and 73 are basically the same circulating thermosyphons as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, but each is configured in a simple loop shape as shown. . In this case, the heat exchangers 30 and 32 on the heat radiation side of the heat transfer devices 72 and 73 are installed so as to protrude inward from the lower end sides of the heating container 8 and reactant container 1, as shown in the figure. ing.

[0048] By applying the circulating thermosiphon in this manner, the evaporated gas and condensed liquid within the circulating thermosyphon can flow smoothly, so that smooth heat transport can be achieved.

FIG. 5 is a configuration diagram showing another modification of the cooling/heating device shown in FIG. 1. In FIG. In this embodiment, the lower end side of the heat transfer device 14 consisting of a heat pipe is inserted into the pipe 7a of the pipe 7 in the upper space of the reactant container 1 near the reactant container 1, as shown in the figure. Inserted and combined. With this configuration, the effective length of the lower end of the heat transfer device 14 that acts as a condensation heat transfer surface can be increased, and the liquid film of the reactant material 3 condensed on the surface can be transferred to the reactor material container 1. This makes it easier to descend.

Another modification of this embodiment is shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. The embodiment shown in FIG. 6 is a device having the same configuration as the embodiment shown in FIG. ,
Further, a valve 6a is provided at the lower part of the pipe 7a. Further, a fan 34 which is rotationally driven by a motor 34a is provided near the reaction material container 2, and a fan 35 which is rotationally driven by a motor 35a is provided near the reaction material container 2. During regeneration, the valve 6 is opened while the valve 6a is kept closed. The vapor of the reacted material 3 generated during regeneration is condensed and liquefied in the pipe 7a,
It accumulates in the upper part of the valve 6a. This liquid is now sufficiently cooled by the cooling action of the heat transfer device 14. At this time, a temperature sensor (not shown) detects the temperature inside or on the outside of the container 1 for the reactant, and based on the detected value, the valve 6a is opened as appropriate to pour this liquid into the container 1 for the reactant. descend to When the temperature of the reactant material 3 returned to the reactant material container 1 is high, the fan 34 is rotated by the motor 34a to cool the reactant material container 1 from the outer surface thereof. After that, when the temperature of the reaction material 4 in the reaction material container 2 is high, the motor 35a

The cooling and heating device shown in FIG. 7 has the same configuration as the cooling and heating device shown in FIG. The lower end of the heat transfer device 14 is introduced into this portion and is thermally coupled to the heating container 8. Moreover, the liquid reservoir section 7b
A heat transfer device 16 consisting of a heat pipe that thermally connects the container 1 for reacted material and the container 11 for cold and heat is provided near the fan 36 which is rotationally driven by a motor 36a. is provided diagonally in this case.

This can prevent the temperature from becoming too high.

FIG. 8 shows the configuration of a cooling/heating device showing another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment also has the same configuration as the embodiment shown in FIG. A pipe 7a near the container 1 is attached. As shown in the figure, the pipe 7a may be inserted into the lower end container 8a and connected, or the pipe 7a may be brought into contact with the outer surface of the lower end container 8a by welding or pressing. You can also combine them. Further, in this embodiment, the container 1 for reacting material is directly thermally connected to the container 11 for cooling and heating as shown in the figure. In this case, the heat medium in the cold/heat container 11 needs to be an evaporative liquid such as methanol or ammonia. That is, the cold/heat container 11 also serves as a unidirectional heat transfer device represented by a heat pipe. In addition, when the relatively low temperature steam of the reactant material 3 moves from the reactant material container 1 side to the reactant container 2 side via the pipe 7a during heat dissipation, the heat medium 9 in the lower end container 8a is moved. There is a possibility of cooling. However, the lower end container 8a is made thin, and the heat medium 9 inside it is difficult to cause convection, so that when relatively low temperature steam moves inside the pipe 7a, the intrusion of cold heat can be reduced.

FIG. 9 shows the configuration of a cooling/heating device showing another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment has the same configuration as the embodiment shown in FIG. , the other end is connected to the reactant container 1, and the other end is connected to the reactant container 2 or, as shown, to a pipe 7 on the reactant container 2 side. In addition, the reaction material 4 in the reaction material container 2
A heat exchanger 37 is disposed near the reactor, and a fan 34 rotatably driven by a bidirectionally rotatable motor 34a is provided between the reactant container 1 and the reactant container 2. A fan rotated by a motor 36a is provided near the heat transfer device 14. In an apparatus having such a configuration, during regeneration, the valve 38 is closed;
The valve 6 is opened and the vapor of the reactant material 3 generated from the reactant material 4 is introduced into the reactant material container 1 via the pipe 7 and the valve 6. In this embodiment, during regeneration, the reaction material 4 is heated by passing a high-temperature heat medium through a heat exchanger 37 provided within the reaction material 4. In this process, the heat held by the vapor of the reacted material 3 is recovered by the heat medium 9 in the heating container 8 via the heat transfer device 14. On the other hand, during heat dissipation, the valve 6 is closed, the valve 38 is opened, and the vapor of the reactant material 3 is introduced into the reactant container 2 via the valve 38 and the pipe 39. In this embodiment, the steam from the reactant material 3 at a relatively low temperature does not pass through the pipe 7 but through the second pipe 39, so that the residual heat inside the pipes 7 and 7a is absorbed. temperature will not rise. Therefore, the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 is efficiently cooled. Further, the fan 34 is designed to rotate in reverse as described above, so that the reactant container 1 or the reactant container 2 can be appropriately cooled by one fan 34. In addition, in the heat dissipation operation, cold water may be flowed into the heat exchanger 37 in the reactor container 2 for cooling.

Another modification of this embodiment is shown in FIG. The cooling and heating device of this modification has the same configuration as the cooling and heating device shown in FIG. has fin 4
2 is attached, and the residual heat of the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 is dissipated into the atmosphere by a fan 36 for cooling. Evaporative liquid 41 within heat transfer device 40
As the solvent, methanol, chlorofluorocarbon, etc. are used. In addition to cooling the fins 42 of the heat transfer device 40, the fan 36 also cools the fins 42 of the heat transfer device 40.
The lower end of the heat transfer device 14 is configured to be cooled.

FIGS. 11 and 12 are diagrams showing other modifications, respectively, which have the same configuration as the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, but in the case where the reaction container 1 and the reaction container 2 are arranged vertically. A modified example is shown. The modification shown in FIG. 11 shows a configuration in which the reactant container 1 is provided below the reactant container 2. In the modification shown in FIG. In this case, the pipe 7 may be connected to the lower part of the reactant container 1 so that the low temperature liquid can be directly introduced into the lower part.

Further, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 12, the reactant container 1 may be provided above the reactant container 2.

Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. This embodiment has the same configuration as the embodiment shown in FIG. The heat exchanger is directly immersed in the heat exchanger in the heating container 8 without providing a heat transfer device. Further, a cooling heat exchanger 44 is provided between the pipe 7a and the cold/heat container 1, and a fan 36 is attached around the heat exchanger 44. With this configuration, during regeneration, the reacted material 3 generated from the reactant material 4
After passing through the pipe 7, the steam enters the heat exchanger 43. Here, the vapor releases heat of condensation and becomes liquefied, and while flowing further down the pipe 7a into the heat exchanger 44, it is sufficiently cooled and enters the reactant container 1. In this embodiment, the cooling/heating container 1 is made elongated so that temperature stratification occurs in the reacted material 3 inside the container 1, so that it is easy to separate into an upper layer with a higher temperature and a lower layer with a lower temperature. For this reason, the heat exchanger 13 for cooling and extraction is provided in the lower part of the reactant material container 1.

During reaction, valve 6 is closed and valve 38 is opened. The steam generated in the reactant 3 portion flows into the reactant container 2 through the heat exchanger 44, the pipe 7a, and the pipe 39. Since the temperature of the steam may rise due to residual heat held in the heat exchanger 44, it is preferable to rotate the fan 36 to cool the heat exchanger 44 before starting the reaction operation. With this configuration, the steam of the reactant material 3 at a relatively low temperature does not pass through the pipe 7.
Since the second pipe 39 is configured to pass through, and the fan 36 is rotated to cool the heat exchanger 44 before starting the reaction operation, the temperature drop of the heat medium 9 in the heating container 8 can be suppressed to a small level. .

FIG. 14 shows another modification. In this example,
Two cooling/heating devices shown in FIG. 13 are combined and configured to be operated alternately. In this embodiment, there is one heating container 8, and there is a heat exchanger 43a inside.
, 43b are immersed. Moreover, a container 1a for reacted material,
1b may be completely separated into two halves, or they may be in thermal contact as shown. Reacted material container 1a
, 1b may be connected in series as shown in the figure, but each may be used separately.

The heat dissipation operation and regeneration operation in each of the embodiments shown in FIG. 14 are similar to those in the embodiment shown in FIG.
The operations are performed alternately. By adopting the configuration shown in this embodiment, heat can be extracted more continuously.

A modification example is shown in which the are arranged in the vertical direction. Figure 1
In the example shown in 5, a reactant container 2 containing a reactant 4 is placed above a reactant container 1 containing a reactant 3, and a heat medium 9 is stored above it. A method of connecting the pipes 7, 39, and 7a when placing the heating container 8 is shown. In the case of this embodiment, since the reaction material container 2 is placed in the middle stage, the heat exchanger 43 in the heating container 8 is

In this case, as shown in the figure, the reactant container 1 and the reactant container 2 are connected by a pipe 39 via a valve 38, and the reactant container 2 and the heating container 8 are connected separately.

When the heater 52 is energized, the liquid 48 in the base of the riser 49 boils and rises toward the top of the riser 49 due to the buoyancy of the bubbles generated at that time. At this time, it rises while drawing up the liquid 48 around it, so that it overflows at the top of the riser pipe 49. This liquid 48 flows into the heat exchanger 46, receives the heat possessed by the reactant 4, and boils. The steam generated thereby moves within the pipe 51 due to the difference in steam pressure,
It flows into the heat exchanger 45. Here, the steam releases heat of condensation and becomes liquefied, returns to the tank 47 through the pipe 50, and repeats the same cycle. After the heat possessed by the reaction material 4 is transferred to the heat medium 9 through such operations,

In addition to being able to be recovered into the heat medium 9 inside, the residual heat is absorbed and the temperature does not rise. Therefore, the reactant material 3 in the reactant material container 1 is efficiently cooled.

Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. In this embodiment, two reactant containers 2a and 2b are provided for one reactant container 1 and heat exchanger 43. As shown in the figure, a pipe 7d with a valve 6a provided in the middle is branched from the pipe 7, and a pipe 39a with a valve 38a provided in the middle is branched from the pipe 39.

[0066] With this configuration, the reaction material containers 2a and 2b can be operated alternately, so that the cooling/heating device can be operated more continuously. Further, the heat held by the reaction materials 4a and 4b can be stored in another heating container 53, and two levels of temperature can be created.
