METHOD OF CONTROLLING TEMPERATURE MODE OF UNDERROOF ICE SKATING RINKS AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A63C19/10 

FIELD: heating equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the management of the temperature regime of enclosed spaces in the cold season and can be used in underroof ice skating rinks for mass skating in the winter. Method for controlling the temperature regime of underroof ice skating rink (for mass skating, sports and entertainment events), including the creation of an ice field and its cooling, is characterized by the fact that natural (climatic) sources of energy (and cooling) are used to create an ice field and maintain the necessary temperature of the ice field (and air) in the ice rink space. As ice field, the cover ice of a natural or artificial water body can be used. Depth of the reservoir may be greater than the depth of freezing of the reservoir under the ice rink. Negative temperatures of the surface of ice and air in the room of the ice rink can be provided by the transfer of the heat of the reservoir and the water-ice phase transition through the ice cover to the roller room and the thermal resistance of the enclosing structure of the room. Device for implementing the method for controlling the temperature regime of a underroof ice skating rink comprises an underroof ice skating rink (room with enclosing structures) with an ice field (the skating base) and a cooling device, characterized in that the base of the roller comprises a reinforced concrete support frame supported by piles installed in the bottom soil of the reservoir. This allows to stabilize the position of the roller surface. Metal mesh can be stretched on the supporting reinforced concrete frame to ensure the safety of skating rink users. Upper mark of the reinforced concrete frame with a stretched metal mesh can be located in the water of the reservoir at a depth equal to the safe thickness of the ice cover. Claimed design and engineering solution can be successfully applied in construction for the production of underroof ice skating rinks in areas with a sufficiently long period of atmospheric negative temperatures.

EFFECT: reduced operating costs in seasonally active underroof ice skating rinks for mass skating is achieved by the absence of the need for energy-intensive refrigeration machines to maintain the state of the ice surface.
