Description

La présente invention est relative à un dispositif de support de radiateurs, notamment destiné aux radiateurs à circulation de fluide tel que l'eau ou l'huile.The present invention relates to a device for supporting radiators, in particular intended for radiators with circulation of fluid such as water or oil.

On connaît un support de radiateurs, qui consiste en une tige particulière à enfoncer dans le mur de support sur lequel est monté le radiateur. Un tel dispositif ne permet toutefois aucun réglage en hauteur du radiateur et ne permet pas une correction en cas de forage inapproprié.A radiator support is known, which consists of a particular rod to be inserted into the support wall on which the radiator is mounted. However, such a device does not allow any height adjustment of the radiator and does not allow correction in the event of inappropriate drilling.

On connaît également un dispositif de support de radiateur qui consiste en un étrier dont la base appliquée contre le mur correspond essentiellement à la hauteur du radiateur qui repose sur une patte inférieure et qui est maintenu en position verticale par un élément réglable horizontalement, solidaire d'une patte supérieure. Toutefois, ce dispositif est relativement onéreux puisqu'il comporte une base relativement grande qui consomme beaucoup de matière quine participe pas à la reprise d'efforts. Par ailleurs, il y a lieu de démonter le radiateur en vue d'une correction de sa position, étant donné que ce réglage s'effectue grâce à des trous oblongs pratiqués dans ladite base qui peut coulisser par rapport à la vis ou au tire-fond de fixation au mur.Also known is a radiator support device which consists of a bracket whose base applied against the wall essentially corresponds to the height of the radiator which rests on a lower leg and which is held in vertical position by a horizontally adjustable element, integral with an upper leg. However, this device is relatively expensive since it has a relatively large base which consumes a lot of material which does not participate in the recovery of efforts. Furthermore, it is necessary to dismantle the radiator with a view to correcting its position, since this adjustment is effected by means of oblong holes made in said base which can slide relative to the screw or the puller. wall fixing base.

Par le document LU-A-67085, on connaît un ensemble de pièces destinées à constituer des supports de radiateur réglables en hauteur. Le support comporte un tube à enfoncer équipé d'un perçage à son extrémité libre pour le passage d'une patte en forme L destinée à porter le radiateur et fixée dans le tube à enfoncer, à l'aide d'une vis et d'un écrou.Document LU-A-67085 discloses a set of parts intended to constitute height-adjustable radiator supports. The support comprises a push-in tube fitted with a bore at its free end for the passage of an L-shaped lug intended to carry the radiator and fixed in the push-in tube, using a screw and a nut.

Le document FR-A-1504199 divulgue un support de radiateur qui comporte un élément mural fixe affectant globalement la forme d'un U dont la base est fixée au mur et présentant des montants. Il comporte encore un élément mobile par rapport à l'élément mural fixe, muni d'une encoche 11 destinée à recevoir le radiateur ou un élément de celui-ci, ledit élément mobile selon un mouvement essentiellement parallèle aux plans contenant l'élément mural fixe affectant globalement la forme d'un U; de plus la base de l'élément mobile comporte une perforation dans un écrou 6 et un boulon 10 qui traverse ladite perforation de la base de l'élément mobile est retenu par le filet correspondant de l'écrou 6.Document FR-A-1504199 discloses a radiator support which comprises a fixed wall element generally having the shape of a U whose base is fixed to the wall and having uprights. It also has a movable element relative to the fixed wall element, provided with a notch 11 intended to receive the radiator or an element thereof, said movable element in a movement essentially parallel to the planes containing the fixed wall element globally affecting the shape of a U; moreover, the base of the mobile element comprises a perforation in a nut 6 and a bolt 10 which passes through said perforation of the base of the mobile element is retained by the corresponding thread of the nut 6.

Le but de l'invention consiste à fournir un support de radiateur de construction simple, peu onéreuse et facile à monter sur les éléments de construction, notamment sans rupture de ceux-ci. Il doit permettre un réglage en hauteur du radiateur sans qu'il ne soit nécessaire de démonter celui-ci pour effectuer ledit réglage.The object of the invention is to provide a radiator support of simple construction, inexpensive and easy to mount on the construction elements, in particular without breaking them. It must allow a height adjustment of the radiator without it being necessary to disassemble it to effect said adjustment.

Les buts de la présente invention sont atteints par un support de radiateur conforme à la revendication 1.The objects of the present invention are achieved by a radiator support according to claim 1.

On constate que le dispositif conforme à la présente invention est particulièrement simple et relativement peu onéreux puisqu'il ne nécessite pas beaucoup de matière.It is found that the device according to the present invention is particularly simple and relatively inexpensive since it does not require much material.

En outre, le radiateur étant supporté par l'élément mobile, lui-même retenu par le boulon logé dans l'écrou dont les pattes de guidage reprennent l'effort, il est possible de régler la hauteur du radiateur par simple réglage de la position de l'élément mobile par rapport à l'élément fixe à l'aide dudit boulon et dudit écrou. Ce réglage est donc particulièrement simple et aisé puisque ledit boulon est facilement accessible. Par ailleurs, ledit réglage peut être effectué tandis que le radiateur est toujours supporté par le support conforme à la présente invention.In addition, the radiator being supported by the mobile element, itself retained by the bolt housed in the nut whose guide tabs take up the force, it is possible to adjust the height of the radiator by simply adjusting the position of the movable member relative to the fixed member using said bolt and said nut. This adjustment is therefore particularly simple and easy since said bolt is easily accessible. Furthermore, said adjustment can be made while the radiator is always supported by the support according to the present invention.

Avantageusement, l'élément mural fixe comporte des pattes de stabilisation qui empêchent un basculement de l'élément mural fixe.Advantageously, the fixed wall element comprises stabilizing lugs which prevent the fixed wall element from tilting.

Selon une forme d'exécution avantageuse du support de radiateur conforme à la présente invention, l'axe central des trous oblongs pratiqués dans les montants de l'élément mobile est écarté du bord du montant correspondant tourné vers l'élément mural fixe d'une distance qui correspond substantiellement à la distance séparant le centre des perforations pratiquées dans les montants de l'élément mural fixe de la base de celui-ci. On obtient ainsi un montage particulièrement stable et rigide.According to an advantageous embodiment of the radiator support according to the present invention, the central axis of the oblong holes made in the uprights of the mobile element is spaced from the edge of the corresponding upright facing the fixed wall element of a distance which corresponds substantially to the distance separating the center of the perforations made in the uprights of the fixed wall element from the base thereof. A particularly stable and rigid assembly is thus obtained.

On a constaté que l'on peut fixer l'élément mural moyennant une vis de relativement petit diamètre, si la base de l'élément mural fixe comporte une perforation relativement petite. Une vis de taille réduite par rapport aux vis ou tire-fond utilisés dans l'état de la technique suffit pour reprendre les efforts nécessaires, étant donné qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de prévoir un réglage de l'élément mural fixe par rapport au mur de fixation pour régler la position du radiateur à supporter. Il en résulte également que l'opérateur peut pratiquer un forage à plus petit diamètre dans le mur de fixation, qui est plus simple à effectuer, qui peut être effectué avec plus de précision et qui empêche la rupture des éléments de construction constituant le mur de support, comme cela est souvent le cas avec les supports conformes à l'état de la technique.It has been found that the wall element can be fixed by means of a relatively small diameter screw, if the base of the fixed wall element has a relatively small perforation. A screw of reduced size compared to the screws or lag screws used in the prior art is sufficient to take up the necessary efforts, since it is not necessary to provide an adjustment of the fixed wall element relative to the fixing wall to adjust the position of the radiator to be supported. It also results in the operator being able to drill a smaller diameter in the fixing wall, which is simpler to carry out, which can be carried out with more precision and which prevents the rupture of the construction elements constituting the wall of support, as is often the case with supports conforming to the state of the art.

L'encoche pratiquée dans l'élément mobile et destinée à recevoir le radiateur ou un élément de celui-ci est évidemment adaptée la forme du radiateur ou d'un élément de celui-ci.The notch formed in the movable element and intended to receive the radiator or an element thereof is obviously adapted to the shape of the radiator or of an element thereof.

D'autres détails apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description ci-dessous donnée à l'appui des dessins dans lesquels:

  • ― la figure 1 est une vue schématique de profil du support de radiateur conforme à l'invention;
  • ― la figure 2 est une vue schématique de face du support de radiateur selon l'invention, et
  • ― les figures 3 et 4 représentent des écrous utilisés selon l'invention.
Other details will appear more clearly on reading the description below given in support of the drawings in which:
  • - Figure 1 is a schematic profile view of the radiator support according to the invention;
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic front view of the radiator support according to the invention, and
  • - Figures 3 and 4 show nuts used according to the invention.

Dans les figures, des repères de référence identiques se rapportent des éléments identiques ou analogues.In the figures, identical reference marks relate to identical or analogous elements.

Selon la présente invention, le support 1 comporte un élément mural fixe 3 en forme de U destiné à être fixé à un mur ou une paroi d'habitations à l'aide d'une vis 5 traversant une perforation 7 pratiquée dans la base 9 dudit élément mural fixe 3. Les montants 11 et 13 de celui-ci comportent chacun une perforation 15 dans laquelle est chaque fois logée une patte de guidage 17 d'un écrou 19.According to the present invention, the support 1 comprises a fixed wall element 3 in the shape of a U intended to be fixed to a wall or a wall of dwellings by means of a screw 5 passing through a perforation 7 formed in the base 9 of said fixed wall element 3. The uprights 11 and 13 thereof each have a perforation 15 in which is each time housed a guide tab 17 of a nut 19.

Le support 1 comporte encore un élément mobile 21 en forme de U dont les montants 23 et 25 présentent un trou oblong 27, l'un opposé à l'autre, dont l'axe correspond essentiellement à celui de la perforation pratiquée dans les montants 11, 13 de l'élément mural fixe. La base 29 de l'élément mobile 21 comporte une perforation 31 traversée par un boulon 33 retenu dans l'écrou 19.The support 1 also comprises a movable element 21 in the shape of a U, the uprights 23 and 25 of which have an oblong hole 27, one opposite the other, the axis of which essentially corresponds to that of the perforation made in the uprights 11 , 13 of the fixed wall element. The base 29 of the movable element 21 has a perforation 31 through which a bolt 33 retained in the nut 19 passes.

Avantageusement, la base de l'élément mobile se prolonge pour former une encoche 35 destinée à recevoir le radiateur à supporter ou un élément de celui-ci. De préférence, les montants de l'élément mobile se prolongent également en diminuant de hauteur, en vue de renforcer le prolongement de la base. Avantageusement, l'encoche contient une pièce de protection adaptée en une matière synthétique par exemple, qui empêche l'endommagement du radiateur ou de son revêtement lors du montage.Advantageously, the base of the mobile element is extended to form a notch 35 intended to receive the radiator to be supported or an element thereof. Preferably, the amounts of the movable element also extend decreasing in height, in order to strengthen the extension of the base. Advantageously, the notch contains a suitable protective part made of a synthetic material for example, which prevents damage to the radiator or to its coating during assembly.

L'élément mural fixe 3 peut également être muni de pattes de stabilisation 37 et 39 qui assurent une meilleure stabilité du support.The fixed wall element 3 can also be provided with stabilizing lugs 37 and 39 which ensure better stability of the support.

En vue d'empêcher des mouvements de basculement de l'élément mobile autour des pattes de guidage 17 de l'écrou 19, l'axe 41 du trou oblong 27 est écarté du bord du montant tourné vers l'élément mural fixe d'une distance sensiblement égale à celle qui sépare le centre de la perforation 15 de la base 9 de l'élément mural fixe 3.In order to prevent tilting movements of the movable element around the guide tabs 17 of the nut 19, the axis 41 of the oblong hole 27 is spaced from the edge of the upright facing the fixed wall element of a distance substantially equal to that which separates the center of the perforation 15 from the base 9 of the fixed wall element 3.

L'écrou 19 qui retient le boulon 33 peut présenter diverses formes telles que représentées dans les figures 3 et 4. D'autres variantes sont également possibles.The nut 19 which retains the bolt 33 can have various shapes as shown in Figures 3 and 4. Other variants are also possible.

Il est bien évident que, pour des raisons d'assemblage, les perforations 15 pratiquées dans les montants 11 et 13 de l'élément mural fixe doivent être dimensionnées de manière à permettre le passage de l'écrou 19. Pour ce faire, elles peuvent être rectangulaires, rondes, oblongues ou présenter toute autre forme adéquate. De manière analogue, le trou oblong 27 doit permettre, outre le réglage en hauteur du radiateur, le passage de l'écrou 19.It is obvious that, for assembly reasons, the perforations 15 made in the uprights 11 and 13 of the fixed wall element must be dimensioned so as to allow the passage of the nut 19. To do this, they can be rectangular, round, oblong or have any other suitable shape. Similarly, the oblong hole 27 must allow, in addition to the height adjustment of the radiator, the passage of the nut 19.

On conçoit aisément que la rotation du boulon 33 dans un sens ou dans l'autre réduit ou augmente la distance entre l'écrou 19 et la base 29 de l'élément mobile 23 et permet ainsi un réglage aisé en hauteur de la position du radiateur ou d'un élément de radiateur logé dans l'encoche 35. Ce réglage peut même être réalisé lorsque le radiateur ou un élément de radiateur est logé dans ladite encoche 35, étant donné que le boulon 33 est facilement accessible.It is easily understood that the rotation of the bolt 33 in one direction or the other reduces or increases the distance between the nut 19 and the base 29 of the movable element 23 and thus allows an easy height adjustment of the position of the radiator. or of a radiator element housed in the notch 35. This adjustment can even be carried out when the radiator or a radiator element is housed in said notch 35, since the bolt 33 is easily accessible.

Notamment dans le cas d'un radiateur dont le démontage était quasi impossible sinon particulièrement difficile à cause de la proximité d'un appui de fenêtre, lors de l'utilisation des supports classiques, le support conforme à la présente invention s'avère particulièrement adéquat puisqu'il permet de rabaisser le radiateur avant de le basculer vers l'avant, en dessous dudit appui de fenêtre.In particular in the case of a radiator whose disassembly was almost impossible if not particularly difficult because of the proximity of a window sill, when using conventional supports, the support according to the present invention proves to be particularly suitable since it allows the radiator to be lowered before tilting it forward, below said window sill.

On a constaté qu'un support conforme à la présente invention réalisé à l'aide d'une feuille d'acier ayant une épaisseur de 1,5 mm et fixé au mur à l'aide d'une vis de diamètre 6 mm supporte une charge de l'ordre de 125 kg, ce qui est amplement suffisant dans le cas de radiateurs à circulation de fluide classiques. Dans le cas de charges plus importantes, on peut utiliser des supports plus robustes ou multiplier le nombre d'appuis du radiateur.It has been found that a support according to the present invention produced using a steel sheet having a thickness of 1.5 mm and fixed to the wall using a screw with a diameter of 6 mm supports a load of the order of 125 kg, which is more than enough in the case of conventional fluid circulation radiators. In the case of larger loads, supports can be used more robust or multiply the number of radiator supports.

Il y a encore lieu de noter que le montage du support conforme à la présente invention est particulièrement aisé, étant donné que l'opérateur peut forer à un diamètre relativement faible (6 mm) dans le mur, ce qui augmente la précision et la rapidité d'exécution du travail et qu'il suffit de serrer une vis à l'aide d'un tourne-vis plutôt qu'un tire-fond à l'aide d'une clef appropriée généralement encombrante. Par ailleurs le réglage en hauteur du radiateur se fait lorsque celui-ci est supporté par lesdits supports.It should also be noted that the mounting of the support according to the present invention is particularly easy, since the operator can drill at a relatively small diameter (6 mm) in the wall, which increases the precision and the speed. execution of the work and that it suffices to tighten a screw using a screwdriver rather than a lag screw using an appropriate key generally bulky. Furthermore, the height of the radiator is adjusted when it is supported by said supports.

Pour empêcher tout basculement de l'élément mobile autour de l'axe de l'écrou 19, ledit élément mobile peut comporter une patte de stabilisation 40.To prevent any tilting of the movable element around the axis of the nut 19, said movable element may include a stabilization tab 40.

En vue de réduire au maximum le jeu de l'élément mobile dans le sens d'un basculement autour de l'axe de l'écrou, il est avantageux de prévoir que le trou oblong 27 ait une largeur telle que l'écrou 19 puisse coulisser selon l'axe longitudinal, c'est-à-dire correspondant sensiblement à la largeur des pattes de guidage 17, mais ne puisse pas tourner autour de son axe. Comme il y a toutefois lieu de faire basculer l'écrou 19 une fois qu'il est introduit dans le support de radiateur afin de le mettre en position essentiellement perpendiculaire par rapport à la base 9, il est avantageux de prévoir une tête élargie 27′ au trou oblong 27.In order to minimize the play of the movable element in the direction of tilting around the axis of the nut, it is advantageous to provide that the oblong hole 27 has a width such that the nut 19 can slide along the longitudinal axis, that is to say corresponding substantially to the width of the guide tabs 17, but cannot rotate about its axis. As it is however necessary to tilt the nut 19 once it is introduced into the radiator support in order to put it in a position substantially perpendicular to the base 9, it is advantageous to provide an enlarged head 27 ′ to the oblong hole 27.

Les perforations 15 peuvent être conçues de manière analogue, les têtes 15′ et 27′ correspondant uniquement en vue du basculement de l'écrou 19, après son introduction (trous 15 et 27 étant l'un en face de l'autre).The perforations 15 can be designed in a similar manner, the heads 15 ′ and 27 ′ corresponding only for the tilting of the nut 19, after its introduction (holes 15 and 27 being one opposite the other).

Le support de radiateur conforme à la présente invention convient pour le montage d'éléments de radiateur en forme de plaque mais aussi pour des radiateurs à fixation centrale par l'intermédiaire d'étriers, crochets ou autres.The radiator support according to the present invention is suitable for mounting plate-shaped radiator elements but also for radiators with central fixing by means of stirrups, hooks or the like.
