Abstract

The present invention relates to an electrothermal system which comprises at least one electrothermal equipment used to emit infrared radiation, a control unit used to control the operation of the electrothermal equipments. By using the control unit, some specified electrothermal equipments can be enabled to heat up some specified regions while the other electrothermal equipments will not operate. The present invention can reduce power consumption for only heating up demanded local regions and improving efficiency of electricity utilization.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An electrothermal system, comprising
 at least one electrothermal equipment for emitting infrared radiation when being connected electrically;   a control unit for controlling the operation of the electrothermal equipments;   wherein by using the control unit, some specified electrothermal equipments can be enabled to heat up specified regions while the other electrothermal equipments will not operate, so as to reduce power consumption for only heating up demanded local regions and improving efficiency of electricity utilization.   
     
     
         2 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the system further comprises a sensor for detecting a location of a user or receiving a operating instruction from the user and transmitting a signal to the control unit to heat up the specified regions. 
     
     
         3 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the sensor is using infrared radiation to detect the location of the user. 
     
     
         4 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the sensor is using image to detect the location, the body motion, or the gestures of the user. 
     
     
         5 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the user can operate the system with the motion of user's body or the user's gestures. 
     
     
         6 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the sensor can identify the user by features of the user's face, the pose of the user or the motion of user's body and optimize the operation of the system subject to user's habits. 
     
     
         7 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the sensor can detect the user's voice, sound, or oral instructions. 
     
     
         8 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the user can operate the system with his voice, sound, or oral instructions. 
     
     
         9 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the sensor can identify the user by the user's voice, sound, or voiceprint and optimize the operation of the system subject to user's habits. 
     
     
         10 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 1 , the system further comprises a thermometer for detecting the temperature of a user's body or the temperature of environment. 
     
     
         11 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the electrothermal equipment is installed in a ceiling of a room. 
     
     
         12 . The electrothermal system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the electrothermal equipment is installed on a wall of a room.
