Christian Neve has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7195178
    Abstract: The invention concerns a cooling ceiling installation with at least one heat exchanger, a valve, which controls the flow of a heat transfer medium through the heat exchanger and a mechanical control device, and a monitoring device. It is endeavored to provide a simple manner of avoiding a condensate formation on the cooling ceiling installation. For this purpose, the monitoring device has an adjustment drive, which mechanically displaces the control device to a state, in which the valve is closed.

  • Patent number: 6533186
    Abstract: A method for controlling a floor heating system, in which a heating circuit in a room is supplied with a heat carrying fluid within a cycle for a supply period, with the supply period being chosen in dependence of the room temperature. To operate the floor heating more favorably with regard to the energy consumption, at least one additional parameter is registered next to the room temperature. The cycle duration and the duration of the supply period are chosen in dependence of the room temperature and the parameter.

  • Patent number: 6454179
    Abstract: A heating system has several heating devices with valves, controlled in dependence of the temperature, in different rooms, with the heating devices being supplied by a supply device with an adjusting member which acts upon a supply temperature. A control device activates the adjusting member. A heat requirement in the rooms is detected and the supply temperature is adapted accordingly. To keep the energy consumption low, a counter detects the number of rooms in which a heat requirement exists. The supply temperature is increased by a value which corresponds to a product of the number of rooms and a predetermined first temperature difference when the number of rooms is higher than zero. When the number of rooms is equal to zero, the supply temperature is decreased by a predetermined second temperature difference.

  • Patent number: 6427923
    Abstract: A heating system having, in at least one heatable room, at least one first heating device and a second heating device, with the second heating device being of a kind which differs from that of the first heating device, and with both heating devices being controlled. To improve the comfort feeling of a consumer, the two heating devices and their control circuits are coupled with each other, and a change of a parameter in one control circuit causes a corresponding change of a parameter in the other control circuit.

  • Publication number: 20020060251
    Abstract: The invention concerns a heating system and a method for controlling a heating system. The heating system has several heating devices with valves, controlled in dependence of the temperature, in different rooms, the heating devices being supplied by a supply device (18) with an adjusting member (16), which acts upon a supply temperature, a control device (27) being provided, which activates the adjusting member (16). A heat requirement in the rooms (2 to 5) is detected, and the supply temperature is adapted accordingly.
