Heat body

The invention relates to a heating body in plate form for ( heating a room with a receptacle for objects to be heated, in particular towels.

Plate-shaped heating elements, which not only serve to heat a room, but also have a holder for those to be heated up Objects, preferably towels, are known. They are in the known execution formed from a plurality of tubes running parallel to one another, which are inserted in a frame or at the rear are connected by manifolds and in this way result in a plate-shaped heating body. To preferably To warm up towels with this heating element, the known design has at least one recess by beingv Adjacent pipes are not arranged directly next to one another, but at a distance from one another. Through this recess For example, a towel can be placed over the part of the heating element underneath and warmed up.

Although the known heat bodies have proven themselves in practice, they have the disadvantage, on the one hand, of one complex and thus expensive production and on the other hand a cumbersome handling for the introduction of the to be heated Objects in the receptacles provided for this purpose,

Since the plate-shaped heat body as close as possible to a Wall are laid, it is difficult to pull one end of the object to be heated through the recess and pulling the object properly over the lower part of the heat sink.

The invention is based on the object of developing a heat body of the type described at the outset in such a way that on the one hand it can be produced more easily and thus cheaper and on the other hand a simpler one Handling when attaching the objects to be heated results, while at the same time the possibilities for the technical and the taste of the heat body should be improved.

The solution to this problem by the invention is characterized in that the plate-shaped heat body is provided on at least one broad side with at least one heatable tube between his Ends lying in the area of the broad side runs at a distance from the broad side.

With this proposal of the invention, the possibility is created, a commercially available, for example from two one behind the other arranged and interconnected halves existing plate-shaped heat body easy way with an adapter for items to be heated up to provide, which is formed by an easy-to-manufacture tube, which because of its distance from the broad side of the heating body enables the object to be heated up to be attached in a simple manner. With the proposal according to the invention, however, not only the production of the heat body according to the invention and its handling is simplified with regard to objects to be heated, but also created the possibility of

adapt the heat body according to the invention in a variety of ways to the respective needs and design.

According to a further feature of the invention, the tube can be connected to the circuit of the heat carrier of the heat body. For example, if the heat sink is attached to a Connected hot water central heating, the warm water is also used to heat the pipe. Becomes the heat body either outside of the heating season or continuously electrically heated, the heat transfer medium of the heat sink is also used in In this case, at the same time as the pipe is heated.

Alternatively, according to the invention, the tube can be heated independently of the heating body. In this configuration it is possible, for example, to connect the heating element to the hot water central heating system, but the pipe used to warm up objects is connected to an electrical one Heating or using the warm service water, which is circulated in a circuit for the immediate provision of hot water, for example.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a plurality of essentially horizontally extending tubes are arranged at a distance one above the other on the broad side of the heating body. The number of tubes can be easily adapt the heat transfer surface for the objects to be heated to the respective needs. According to the invention, a plurality of tubes can each be combined to form a group, with the possibility consists of arranging several tube groups at a distance from one another on the broad side of the heating body.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the pipe can be a pipe coil with several parallel

be formed to each other and substantially horizontally extending pipe sections and substantially perpendicularly extending connecting pieces. In this embodiment, too, several coils can be arranged at a distance one above the other on a broad side of the heating body.

If the plate-shaped heating element is not on the wall, but is mounted free-standing in the room, it is of course possible to place one or more pipes on both broad sides of the heating element as a receptacle for the heating element To arrange the object.

The cross section of the tubes or coiled tubes can be circular, angular or oval, depending on the heat exchange surface required in each case or desired taste design. In the end it is possible according to the invention to design the pipes or pipe coils as a holder for hooks or support plates.

In the drawing, two embodiments of a heat sink according to the invention are shown, namely show:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment Eform with several tubes combined into two groups and

2 shows a perspective illustration of a second embodiment, in which two pipe coils, arranged one above the other at a distance, are used as receptacles serve for items to be warmed up.

In both exemplary embodiments, a heat sink 1 in Plate shape used to heat the room. This heat sink can be a commercially available so-called

act called Plattenhelzkörper, for example from two half-shells is produced. In both embodiments, on one of the broad sides of the heating body 1 Recordings for objects to be heated, in particular towels arranged.

In the first embodiment according to Fig.l these recordings are each formed by a plurality of tubes 2, which have the shape of half a circular ring in the illustrated embodiment. These tubes 2 are with their ends in the Area of the broad side of the heating body 1 and run in a semicircle at a distance from the broad side of the heating body 1, f.o that the objects to be heated can be hung over the tubes 2 in a simple manner from above. at the embodiment according to Fig.l form three such tubes

2 an upper tube group and five further tubes 2 a lower tube group.

In the embodiment of Figure 2 are also two Recordings for objects to be heated are arranged on a broad side of the heating body 1, with each recording is formed by a tube 3, which is designed as a coil. This coil comprises several parallel pipe sections 3a which run essentially horizontally to one another and which are connected to one another by connecting pieces 3b which run essentially at right angles. In this embodiment too, the ends of the respective tube 3 lie in the area of the broad side of the heating body 1. In this case, the tube 3 runs at a constant distance from the broad side of the heating body 1. While the upper tube 3 is formed with three horizontally extending tube sections 3a, the lower tube comprises

3 five such pipe sections 3a. As an alternative to this, the tubes 3 can run at different distances from the broad side of the heating body 1.

The tubes 2 and 3 can not only have a circular, but also an angular or oval cross-section. They can also be designed as a holder for hooks or storage plates, so that they have a double function take over.

Insofar as a heating of the tubes 2 or 3 is provided only with the thermal body 1, the tubes 2 and 3 with the cycle of Wärmetragers of the thermal body 1 are ver _r inhibited be, for example, to the hot water central heating joined ^v. Alternatively, it is also possible to heat the pipes 2 or 3 independently of the heating element 1, for example by means of an electric heater or in that the pipes 2 or 3 have hot water flowing through them, whereas the heating element 1 is connected to the hot water central heating system .
