Description
INTEGRATED WATER HEATING SYSTEM WITH SUPPLY RESERVOIR
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to an integrated water heating system with a supply reservoir whereby to provide hot water on demand.
BACKGROUND ART
It is known to provide reservoirs for holding large quantities of hot water and we find these mostly in boiler systems. With the advent of tankless water heaters, however, it is difficult to supply a large demand of hot water unless several of these tankless water heaters are used and controlled by an intelligent controller circuit and this becomes a costly system. An example of such system is described in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2008/0152331, entitled "Modular Water Heating Systems", wherein a water storage tank is fed hot water by two or more tankless water heaters which are supported on a frame. Such an installation takes a large space to install and requires a frame. It is also not aesthetically pleasing and there is an added cost to assemble the frame with the tankless water heaters and the whole system needs to be transported and assembled on site.
There is a need to provide an integrated water heating system using an insulated holding tank and to which is removably secured a tankless water heater in such a manner that the integrated system becomes a self-supporting unit capable of being transported and wherein the installation thereof simply requires a connection to the domestic water supply and to the hot water supply line.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION
It is therefore a feature of the present invention to provide an integrated water heating system with a supply reservoir which meets the above need.
According to a broad aspect of the present invention there is provided an integrated water heating system comprised of a hot water holding tank having an outer jacket secured in spaced relationship therearound. An insulating space is defined about the hot water holding tank and the outer jacket. A connecting bracket is secured to an outer surface of the hot water holding tank and has a projecting formation provided with a connecting member spaced a predetermined distance from the outer surface for close fit adjacent an inner surface of the outer jacket and disposed for alignment with an external support bracket adapted to be secured thereto through the outer jacket.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring now to the drawings and more particularly to Figures 1 to 3, there is shown generally at 10 an integrated water heating system constructed in =
- 3 -accordance with the present invention. As hereinshown, it comprises a hot water holding tank 11 which in this particular instance is the inner casing of a conventional hot water heater of the 40, 60 or 119 gallons storage capacity and which is surrounded by an outer jacket 12 spaced thereabout to create an insulating space 13 in which is injected a urethane foam 14 which expands and becomes rigid. However, before doing so a connecting bracket 15 is connected to an outer surface 16 of the hot water holding tank 11 and has spaced projecting formations 17, as better illustrated in Figure 3, across which is secured an arcuate connecting flange wall 18 which is spaced a predetermined distance from the outer surface 16 of the holding tank whereby to be positioned in close fit adjacent an inner surface 19 of the outer jacket 12. As shown in Figure 2, the connecting bracket 15 is secured to the hot water holding tank 11 by a metal strap 20 to which the connecting bracket 15 is secured. The arcuate flange wall 18 is positioned for alignment with an external support bracket 22 as shown in Figures 4, 5A and 5B.
When the thermal insulating foam 14 is injected within the insulating space 13 and solidifies, it holds the connecting bracket and strapping captive within the insulating space 13. The rigid insulating foam also provides thermal insulation in the space 13 and at the same time provides support bracing between the outer jacket 12 and the outer surface of the hot water holding tank or inner casing 11.
As shown in Figures 1 and 6, an external hot water heating device, herein a tankless hot water heater 25, is removably supported by the external support bracket 22. A pump 26 is connected to an outlet conduit 27 which connects to a bottom portion of the hot water holding tank 11 and pumps water from the bottom of the holding tank 11 via an inlet conduit 28 and into the tankless hot water heater 25 where the water is heated, then fed back into the holding tank 11 by an outlet conduit 29 whereby to release hot water in the top portion of the hot water holding tank 11. However, the hot water may be fed at another location of the holding tank. A control circuit 21 having a display panel 21' regulates the temperature of the water in the hot water holding tank. This control is an intelligent control module having a micro-controller having a temperature regulating program. A thermistor (not shown) is mounted inside the water holding tank in a bottom portion thereof and feeds temperature signals to the micro-controller. The micro-controller has inputting means, such as touch-switch, to set a desired temperature of water within the hot water holding tank. This controller is of a type well known in the art.
It is pointed out that another type of water heater may be provided such as a heat exchanger device fed from an external source or another type of gas or electric water heater. The control circuit may be integrated with the tankless water heater 25 or be a separate unit.
When the thermal insulating foam 14 is injected within the insulating space 13 and solidifies, it holds the connecting bracket and strapping captive within the insulating space 13. The rigid insulating foam also provides thermal insulation in the space 13 and at the same time provides support bracing between the outer jacket 12 and the outer surface of the hot water holding tank or inner casing 11.

A pump 26 is connected to an outlet conduit 27 which connects to a bottom portion of the hot water holding tank 11 and pumps water from the bottom of the holding tank 11 via an inlet conduit 28 and into the tankless hot water heater 25 where the water is heated, then fed back into the holding tank 11 by an outlet conduit 29 whereby to release hot water in the top portion of the hot water holding tank 11. However, the hot water may be fed at another location of the holding tank. A control circuit 21 having a display panel 21' regulates the temperature of the water in the hot water holding tank.

The micro-controller has inputting means, such as touch-switch, to set a desired temperature of water within the hot water holding tank. This controller is of a type well known in the art.
It is pointed out that another type of water heater may be provided such as a heat exchanger device fed from an external source or another type of gas or electric water heater. The control circuit may be integrated with the tankless water heater 25 or be a separate unit.
- 4 -As pointed out hereinabove, the hot water holding tank 11 may be that of a conventional hot water heater which is retro-fitted by removing the resistive heating elements and other associated devices. By using a retro-fitted conventional hot water heater, there is a reduction in costs for the construction of the integrated water heating system of the present invention.
Referring to Figures 1 and 2, it can be seen that an abutment bracket 30 is also secured to the outer surface 12' of the outer jacket 12 and is vertically aligned with the external support bracket 22, as shown in Figure 4. The abutment bracket 30 is formed of a metal strip which defines a flat connecting or abutment plate 31 which is bent at opposed ends to form angled connecting flanges 32. The connecting flanges are provided with holes 33 to receive tapping screws 38. As shown in Figure 8, an abutment flange 34 is secured to a bottom end 36' of the tankless water heater housing 36 and has a spaced depending flange wall 37 for abutment against the abutment plate 31 of the abutment bracket 30. It is pointed out that the depending flange 37 may also be provided with holes therein whereby to be rigidly connected to the abutment bracket 30.
Further, as shown in Figure 2, the abutment bracket 30 may be secured to a further connecting bracket 15' secured to the hot water holding tank 11 by a metal strap 20' in a similar fashion as the connecting bracket 15 whereby the abutment bracket is also supported by the hot water holding tank 11 which is a very rigid steel tank, thus providing added support to the tankless hot water heater. However, it is to be noted that the metal strapping 20 and its associated connecting bracket provides about 440 lbs of resistance before compression and the tankless hot water heater 25 usually weighs about 75 lbs.
Accordingly, two or three of these tankless hot water heaters could be connected about the outer casing with the provision of additional connecting brackets 15 disposed inside the outer jacket. Of course, the water holding tank 11 would be of larger capacity.
Referring to Figures 5A and 5B, there is shown the construction of the external support bracket 22. This bracket is formed from a metal sheet stamping and defines an abutment wall 50 against which the back wall 36' of housing 36 abuts when hung over this abutment wall 50, as shown in Figure 7. The abutment wall is solidified by a straight angle flange 51 at a top end thereof and an outer jacket right angle lower flange 52 at a bottom end thereof. The lower angle flange 52 has an arcuate edge 53 to fit the curvature of the outer casing 12 for abutment thereagainst. Side flanges 54 are provided with connecting wings 56 provided with holes 57 to receive tapping screws 58, as shown in Figure 7 for connecting the support bracket 22 to the connecting bracket 15 through the outer surface 12' of the outer casing 12.
