Description

Field of technology

The invention relates to the arrangement of regulators or their components in heating, solar and cooling devices in a single or multi-part thermal insulation of a fitting or a fitting assembly integrated into at least one pipe line, whereby the thermal insulation completely or partially surrounds one or more sections of the pipe line including the fitting or fitting assembly .

Current state of the art

Thermal insulations that surround one or more pipeline sections including fittings or fitting assemblies are known, for example, from EP 0 561 037 B1 or DE 197 02 755 C2. Covers made of heat-insulating material, which can also be multi-part, are described here, which surround sections of the pipeline with fittings or fitting assemblies, while the necessary functional and/or indicating elements of the fittings or fitting assemblies are visible and accessible. Jackets often consist of an upper part and a lower part, with the lower part being at least two-part. However, adjustments to the insulating material for storage, which are needed for the regulation of heating, solar or cooling devices, cannot be identified from the above-mentioned protective documents. Covers made of heat-insulating material are known on the market, which have holes, partly also in the covers of the regulators, which can be made of the thermal cover in which the regulators are arranged with the appropriate attachments,

89367a rtf titt these, however, are mounted firmly, for example, on sections of the pipeline or through the lower part of the casing to the wall.

With these designs, it is disadvantageous that in order to store the regulator, a special attachment with the appropriate mounting material is additionally required, while the attachment must also be adapted to the shape of the regulator and the cut-out in the heat-insulating casing or its parts must also be adapted in accordance with the different shapes of the regulator and attachment , which causes high costs and time-consuming production and assembly of such thermal insulation for armature assemblies and regulators. Also disadvantageous with these jackets is that the regulator attachment itself does not sufficiently protect the regulator against heat radiation from pipelines with integrated fittings or fitting assemblies.

The essence of the invention

Based on this state of the art, the task of the invention is to provide a heat-insulating one-piece or multi-piece shell for a fitting or a fitting assembly integrated into at least one pipeline, whereby the regulator or parts of the regulator can be stored in this shell of heat-insulating material without installing an additional attachment for the regulator or components of the regulator, as well as the regulator itself, is protected against thermal radiation from pipelines and fittings or fittings assemblies.

To solve this task, it is proposed that a one-part or multi-part shell made of heat-insulating material has at least one recess and/or opening for storing the regulator or parts of the regulator, in which the regulator or parts of the regulator are inserted or into which they can be inserted.

Φ

According to this embodiment of recesses and/or holes, it is possible, with reduced acquisition and assembly costs, to integrate the regulator and/or regulator components into a one-part or multi-part casing made of heat-insulating material and to dispense with the use of additional fasteners for mounting the regulators.

An advantageous creation of a multi-part shell consists in the fact that at least one part of the shell of multi-part thermal insulation, which contains the regulator or parts of the regulator, has guiding or clamping elements that enable the precise positioning of the shell part on the next or into the next part of the thermal insulation with counterparts corresponding to the clamping or guiding elements, whereby one part of the casing forms the upper part of the thermal insulation, which completely or with the exception of the necessary functional and indicating elements covers the sections of the pipeline with integrated fittings or fitting assemblies.

At the same time, the part of the shell surrounding the regulator or the regulator components preferably has an insulating area, which possibly protects the regulator or the regulator components against the heat of the pipeline sections and fittings.

In addition, the part of the housing surrounding the regulator or parts of the regulator can be adapted at little cost to different contours of the regulator, while the guiding elements for precise mating with the rest of the housing or with other parts of the housing remain unchanged.

In order to achieve a clamping effect for placing the regulator or parts of the regulator in the heat-insulating part of the shell, snap-in elements are preferably formed on the marginal areas of the installation space of the shell part, which are elastically deformable when the regulator is inserted and in the built-in state are spring-backed and through

notches hold the regulator or regulator components in the installation space of the casing part.

In order for the surface of the regulator to match the surface of the casing part for optical reasons, the regulator can also be fixed in the installation space by means of holding or adhesive elements.

In the case of multi-part jackets made of heat-insulating material with a two-part lower part, arranged behind the sections of the pipeline, the part of the jacket surrounding the regulator has additional guiding and stabilizing elements that are form-connectable with the two-part lower part, while the upper part, as another part of the jacket, surrounds and it connects the other parts of the casing to each other.

The guiding and stabilizing elements themselves can also be separate shell parts made of heat-insulating material that can be integrated into the remaining shell parts, so that the heat-insulating shell containing the regulator or parts of the regulator can be used for both single-part and multi-part lower parts.

Additionally, the regulator or regulator components may be clamped or permanently fixed in the recess or opening.

Examples of embodiments of the invention

fig. 1 is an elevation view of a multi-part thermal insulation in which a controller 5 for a heating, solar or cooling device is integrated, this controller being arranged in part 2 of the shell of the multi-part thermal insulation and another part 1 of the shell forming the upper part, which, as shown in fig. 2, completely or with the exception of the necessary functional and indicating elements 10, 11 covers sections 8, 9 of the pipeline with integrated fittings or fittings assemblies, located in the lower part 3. The jacket 2 surrounding the regulator 5 or parts of the regulator has an insulating area 12, shown

89367a.rtf in Fig. 3, which protects the regulator 5 or parts of the regulator against the heat of sections 8, 9 of the pipeline and fittings. In addition, the installation space 4 in the shell part 2, as shown in Fig. 4, can be adapted to other external geometries 15 of the regulator by means of a simple change of the tool during the production of the shell part 2, without having to change the guiding and clamping elements 6, 7, respectively 13, 14 for precise introduction of part 2 of the shell into the remaining parts 1, 3 of the shell.

As can also be seen in Fig. 3, part 2 of the casing has molded snap-in and/or clamping elements 16 on the edge areas 24 of the installation space 4, which hold and/or position the regulator 5 in the installation space 4. Holding and positioning can be according to Fig. 5 is made so that the visible sides of the thermal insulation with the parts 1, 2 of the shell and the regulator 5 form a common surface contour 18. In this case, it is advantageous if the holding and/or positioning of the controller 5 in the installation space 4 is realized by means of holding and/or adhesive elements 25.

In tight space conditions, it is possible to simplify the installation of the thermal insulation when the part of the insulation jacket arranged between the sections 8, 9 of the pipeline and the mounting wall 2 6 is formed as a two-part lower part 19, 20, see Fig. 6, and on the part 2 the jackets are arranged further guides and stabilizing elements 21, 22, which are shape-compatible with the two-part lower part 19, 20, while the upper part 1 surrounds and connects the parts 2, 19, 20 of the casing from the visible side.

In order to be able to assemble both one-piece _3 and two-piece thermal insulation with the same part 2 of the shell

19, 20 in the lower part of the casing, it is advantageous if the other guiding and stabilizing elements 21, 22 represent a special part 2 3
