1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a window structure, and more particularly to a window structure providing electricity generation, heat isolation and self-cleaning functions.
2. Description of the Related Art
Conventional window structures of multi-storey buildings are simply constituted by thick glass plates. During sunny days, ultraviolet (UV) rays and heat radiation from sun directly enter the building, and increase temperature therein. Although heat isolation material or heat isolation film is disposed on a surface of glass plate, ultraviolet (UV) rays and heat radiation cannot be sufficiently isolated.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONA detailed description is given in the following embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The invention provides a window structure comprising a frame, a solar energy board, a plate and a heat isolation film,. The solar energy board is disposed in the frame. The plate is disposed in the frame corresponding to the solar energy board, wherein an isolation chamber is formed between the plate and the solar energy board. The heat isolation film is disposed between the solar energy board and the plate, and divides the isolation chamber.
Utilizing the invention, the solar energy board provides improved light transmission ratio. Thus, scenery outside of the window structure can be viewed therethrough. Larger area of sunlight is absorbed by the solar energy board to generate electricity. Additionally, heat radiation from sunlight is sufficiently isolated by the heat isolation film, the isolation chamber and the plate. The invention thus provides improved vision, energy generation and heat isolation functions.
The invention can be more fully understood by reading the subsequent detailed description and examples with references made to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
The following description is of the best-contemplated mode of carrying out the invention. This description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims.
The solar energy board 120 comprises a first surface 121, a second surface 122 and a photo catalysis layer 123. The first surface 121 is opposite to the second surface 122. The second surface 122 faces the plate 130. The photo catalysis layer 123 is coated on the first surface 121. The box 160 is disposed on the second surface 122 located outside of the isolation chamber 170.
In a modified embodiment, the solar energy board 120 is an amorphous silicon solar energy board, and a light transmission ratio thereof is 10%. The heat isolation film 140 is a transparent heat mirror film. The plate 130 is a transparent plate, such as a glass plate.
Utilizing the invention, the solar energy board provides improved light transmission ratio. Thus, scenery outside of the window structure can be viewed therethrough. Larger area of sunlight is absorbed by the solar energy board to generate electricity. Additionally, heat radiation from sunlight is sufficiently isolated by the heat isolation film, the isolation chamber and the plate. The invention thus provides improved vision, energy generation and heat isolation functions.
While the invention has been described by way of example and in terms of preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited thereto. To the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements (as would be apparent to those skilled in the art). Therefore, the scope of the appended claims should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar arrangements.
