DESC:FIELD OF INVENTION
[0001] The invention pertains to the field of central heating systems and related heating technologies. Specifically, it relates to a multifunctional heating system that integrates fuel, electricity, and LPG heating mechanisms with a steamer function. This system is designed to efficiently heat residential or commercial spaces while also providing steam for washing needs, offering an innovative and energy-efficient solution for temperature regulation and water heating. The invention encompasses aspects of thermoelectric generation, materials engineering, and environmental control within heating applications.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
[0002] Central heating systems have long been a staple for maintaining comfortable indoor environments, especially in regions with cold climates. Traditional heating systems often rely on a single source of energy, such as electricity, natural gas, or firewood. While these systems can be effective, they typically come with several limitations, including high energy consumption, environmental concerns, and the need for extensive installation processes.
[0003] In particular, many existing systems do not efficiently combine multiple energy sources, nor do they provide multifunctional capabilities such as integrating steaming functions for household needs. Moreover, the materials used in conventional heating systems can degrade over time, leading to reduced efficiency and increased maintenance costs. The challenge has been to create a versatile heating solution that is energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, easy to install, and durable.
[0004] The "Kashur Hamaam" central heating system addresses these challenges by integrating multiple fuel sources (firewood, coal, charcoal, electricity, and LPG) and combining heating and steaming functionalities. This system is designed with a hollow conical cylinder-shaped heating chamber made from thermo-resistant materials, optimizing heat generation and minimizing energy waste. The inclusion of a thermo-electric generator further enhances the system's efficiency by generating electricity for water circulation and basic room power needs.
[0005] Additionally, the Kashur Hamaam system features copper water pipes for superior heat transmission, a built-in chimney with a helical-shaped filter for cleaner emissions, and extendable adjustable legs for flexible placement. These innovations collectively provide a cost-effective, durable, and user-friendly solution for residential and commercial heating and steaming applications. The invention aims to revolutionize the heating industry by offering an all-encompassing, efficient, and long-lasting central heating system.

PRIOR ART OF INVENTION
[0016] The "Kashur Hamaam" central heating system represents a significant advancement over existing heating technologies by integrating multiple energy sources and multifunctional capabilities. To appreciate the novelty and improvements offered by this invention, it is essential to understand the limitations and characteristics of the prior art in the field of central heating systems.
[0017] Conventional Central Heating Systems
[0018] Traditional central heating systems typically rely on a single energy source, such as natural gas, electricity, or solid fuels (wood, coal). These systems generally consist of a boiler or furnace that heats water or air, which is then distributed throughout a building via radiators, underfloor heating, or ductwork. Key limitations of these systems include:
1. Single Energy Source Dependence:
? Systems relying solely on natural gas or electricity can be vulnerable to supply interruptions or price fluctuations.
? Solid fuel systems, while effective, often require more maintenance and can be less convenient for users.
2. Energy Efficiency:
? Many conventional systems are not optimized for energy efficiency, leading to higher operational costs and greater environmental impact.
? Heat loss through inefficient insulation and outdated designs further exacerbates energy waste.
3. Installation and Maintenance:
? Traditional systems often require extensive installation processes, including significant structural modifications to accommodate piping, radiators, or ductwork.
? Maintenance can be cumbersome, especially for systems using solid fuels, which generate ash and other residues.
4. Lack of Multifunctionality:
? Existing systems typically focus solely on heating and do not provide additional functionalities such as steaming, which can be beneficial for household tasks.
[0019] Combined Heating and Power Systems: Some modern systems have attempted to combine heating with power generation, known as Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems. These systems generate electricity and capture the heat produced during the process for use in heating. While these systems improve energy efficiency, they generally still rely on a single primary fuel source and lack the multifunctional capabilities of the Kashur Hamaam system.
[0020] Hybrid Heating Systems: Hybrid heating systems that use multiple energy sources, such as dual-fuel systems combining electricity and gas, have been developed to offer greater flexibility and efficiency. However, these systems often lack the integration and seamless operation of multiple fuels and functionalities seen in the Kashur Hamaam system. They also may not incorporate advanced features such as built-in thermo-electric generators or multifunctional steaming capabilities.
[0021] Novelty of the Kashur Hamaam System
[0022] The Kashur Hamaam system distinguishes itself from the prior art through several innovative features:
[0023] Multi-Fuel Integration: Utilizes a combination of firewood, coal, charcoal, electricity, and LPG, providing flexibility and resilience against supply interruptions.
[0024] Thermo-Electric Generation: Incorporates a thermo-electric generator within the heating chamber, producing 5-12 DC volts to power a DC motor pump and meet basic room power requirements.
[0025] Multifunctionality: Functions as both a central heating system and a steamer, catering to hot water and steaming needs for household tasks.
[0026] Advanced Design: Features a hollow conical cylinder-shaped heating chamber made from thermo-resistant materials, optimizing heat generation and minimizing fuel consumption. Includes extendable and adjustable legs for flexible installation without the need for permanent fixtures. Equipped with a built-in chimney with a helical-shaped filter to reduce environmental pollution.
[0027] Durable Materials: Uses copper for water pipes and primary construction, ensuring efficient heat transmission and longevity of over 25 years.
[0028] By addressing the limitations of existing heating systems and introducing innovative, multifunctional, and efficient solutions, the Kashur Hamaam system represents a significant advancement in the field of central heating technologies.
