Vacuum heat insulator and apparatus using the same
View Patent ↗A radiation heat transfer suppressor for inhibiting heat transfer by infrared rays is provided on the external surface of the enveloping member of a vacuum heat insulator. In heat-blocking or keep warm using a vacuum heat insulator, a surface having a radiation heat transfer suppressor is faced to a high-temperature side. Thus, the vacuum heat insulator exhibits excellent heat-insulating performance in a temperature range of 150° C. or higher.
1. A vacuum heat insulator comprising:
a core;
a gas-barrier enveloping member covering the core and having a depressurized inside; and
a radiation heat transfer suppressor provided on at least one surface among external surfaces of the enveloping member,
wherein the radiation heat transfer suppressor has a first inorganic material film, and a second inorganic material film having a reflectance different from that of the first inorganic material film, and the first inorganic material film and the second inorganic material film are alternately laminated with each other.
2. The vacuum heat insulator according to claim 1 , wherein the first inorganic material film and the second inorganic material film are alternately laminated in a thickness of a quarter of a wavelength providing maximum emissivity at a heat-insulating temperature.
3.
