Description
La présente invention concerne les radiateurs tubulaires, constitués de tubes collecteurs sur lesquels sont reportés par soudage, soudo-brasage, collage ou vissage des tubes émetteurs de chaleur. Suivant les modèles, les tubes collecteurs et émetteurs sont positionnés verticalement, horizontalement, ou en biais.The present invention relates to tubular radiators, made up of collecting tubes to which are transferred by welding, soldering, bonding or screwing heat emitting tubes. Depending on the models, the collector and emitter tubes are positioned vertically, horizontally, or in bias.
Le tubes collecteurs du radiateur sont destinés à être raccordés à un conduit d'arrivée et à un conduit de départ du fluide caloporteur et, selon des contraintes liées à l'esthétique, à l'accessibilité ou autre, le raccordement peut s'effectuer en différents endroits des tubes collecteurs du radiateur. De ce fait, lors de sa fabrication, chaque radiateur est prévu pour un mode particulier de raccordement, ce qui oblige à fabriquer et à disposer en stock, pour un modèle, de radiateurs adaptés à chaque mode de raccordement.The radiator header tubes are intended to be connected to an inlet duct and to a flow pipe for the heat transfer fluid and, according to constraints related to aesthetics, accessibility or other, the connection can be made in different locations of the radiator header tubes. Thereby, during its manufacture, each radiator is designed to a particular mode of connection, which requires make and have in stock, for a model, radiators suitable for each connection method.
En outre, pour les radiateurs réalisés sur mesure, il est nécessaire de préciser lors de la commande le mode de raccordement désiré or, au moment de la livraison, le choix de la position de raccordement peut avoir changé en raison souvent de contraintes du chantier, et le radiateur livré ne convient alors pas, ce qui entraíne des retards sur le chantier.In addition, for radiators made on measurement, it is necessary to specify during the controls the desired connection mode or, when delivery, choice of connection position may have changed often due to constraints of the site, and the delivered radiator is not suitable, which causes delays on site.
La présente invention a pour objet de remédier aux inconvénients mentionnés ci-dessus relatifs au raccordement des radiateurs tubulaires actuels, et de supprimer tous les ennuis concernant l'étude et la commande de radiateurs spécifiques liés à un mode de raccordement bien précis.The object of the present invention is to remedy the above mentioned drawbacks to the connection of current tubular radiators, and remove all the trouble about the study and the control of specific radiators linked to a mode of very precise connection.
L'invention propose à cet effet de rendre chaque radiateur universel au niveau de son raccordement, en permettant alors de pouvoir ne choisir qu'au moment de l'installation le mode de raccordement du radiateur. To this end, the invention proposes to make each universal radiator in terms of sound connection, allowing then to be able to choose when installing the connection method of the radiator.
Par le document DE-A-16 79 429 on connaít un radiateur tubulaire constitué de deux tubes collecteurs reliés entre eux par des tubes émetteurs et équipé d'un dispositif de raccordement universel comprenant, à l'intérieur d'un de ces tubes collecteurs et disposé de préférence vers l'extrémité de celui-ci, un cloisonnement transversal étanche, choisi pour effectuer le raccordement d'alimentation du radiateur en fluide caloporteur en séparant le collecteur concerné en deux chambres recevant respectivement le fluide d'alimentation et le fluide de retour.By document DE-A-16 79 429 we know a tubular radiator made up of two collecting tubes interconnected by transmitter tubes and equipped with a universal connection device comprising, at the interior of one of these collector tubes and disposed of preferably towards the end of it, a watertight transverse bulkhead, chosen to perform the radiator fluid supply connection coolant by dividing the relevant collector in two chambers respectively receiving the fluid supply and return fluid.
Le radiateur tubulaire selon l'invention est du type connu par le document DE-A-16 79 429 ci-dessus mentionné. Il se caractérise en ce que chaque tube collecteur comprend intérieurement, de préférence vers chaque extrémité de celui-ci, un cloisonnement transversal présentant une large ouverture qui permet la circulation du fluide caloporteur dans le collecteur, un élément d'obturation étant prévu pour être engagé dans l'ouverture du cloisonnement associé à l'extrémité de collecteur choisie pour effectuer le raccordement d'alimentation, de manière à obturer de façon étanche la dite ouverture.The tubular radiator according to the invention is of the type known from DE-A-16 79 429 above mentionned. It is characterized in that each tube collector internally, preferably towards each end of it, a partitioning transverse with a wide opening which allows the circulation of the heat transfer fluid in the collector, a obturation element being intended to be engaged in the opening of the partition associated with the end of collector chosen to make the connection supply, so as to seal the said opening.
On comprend ainsi que, par la mise en place de l'élément d'obturation dans l'ouverture du cloisonnement approprié, au moment même de l'installation du radiateur, on dispose ainsi jusqu'au tout dernier moment d'une totale liberté du choix du mode de raccordement de ce radiateur.It is thus understood that, by the establishment of the sealing element in the opening of the partition appropriate at the time of installation of the radiator, so we have until the very last moment complete freedom to choose the connection method of this radiator.
Les cloisonnements ainsi mis en place à l'intérieur des tubes collecteurs peuvent être en métal, ou en matière de synthèse. Leur fixation sur la paroi intérieure du tube collecteur peut s'effectuer par soudage, par soudobrasage, par collage, par montage en force ou par sertissage. Le bord de l'ouverture ménagée dans le cloisonnement peut être lisse, fileté, cranté, ou présenter des clips.The partitions thus set up at the inside of the collecting tubes can be made of metal, or in matters of synthesis. Their attachment to the wall inside the collecting tube can be done by welding, brazing, gluing, mounting force or by crimping. The edge of the opening in the partitioning can be smooth, threaded, notched, or present clips.
Le système selon l'invention, qui permet d'obturer le cloisonnement le plus proche de l'alimentation du fluide caloporteur (ou du retour de ce fluide selon le cas) permet de disposer de la puissance thermique maximale du radiateur quel que soit le mode de raccordement choisi.The system according to the invention, which allows to close the partition closest to the supply of the heat transfer fluid (or the return of this fluid as appropriate) provides the power maximum temperature of the radiator whatever the mode of connection chosen.
Actuellement, soit le radiateur est fabriqué spécialement pour un mode de raccordement voulu et cela nécessite une grande diversité de fabrication, soit certains modèles prévus pour la mise en stock répondent à plusieurs modes de raccordement (et non pas à tous) et dans ce cas la puissance thermique peut être sensiblement inférieure compte-tenu de la non proximité du cloisonnement.Currently, either the radiator is manufactured specially for a desired connection method and this requires a wide variety of manufacturing, some models planned for stocking meet to several connection methods (and not to all) and in this case the thermal power can be significantly lower given the non-proximity partitioning.
Lorsque le raccordement du radiateur doit être du type bi-tube, c'est-à-dire avec des orifices d'entrée et de sortie distincts, l'élément d'obturation présente alors la forme d'un bouchon, soit simple, soit à profil étagé. Ce bouchon peut, suivant les cas, être en métal, en matière de synthèse ou en caoutchouc, et son montage étanche sur l'ouverture du cloisonnement peut s'effectuer en force, par vissage, par crantage ou au moyen de clips de maintien.When the radiator connection must be of the twin-tube type, i.e. with orifices input and output, the shutter element then has the shape of a plug, either simple or with stepped profile. This plug can, depending on the case, be of metal, synthetic material or rubber, and its watertight mounting on the partition opening can be done by force, by screwing, by notching or by means of retaining clips.
Lorsque le raccordement du radiateur doit être du type monotube, c'est-à-dire doit s'effectuer par un orifice unique en utilisant un robinet de type monotube, l'élément d'obturation comprend une douille étagée, en métal, en matière synthétique ou en caoutchouc s'engageant dans l'ouverture du cloisonnement et recevant intérieurement, avec étanchéité, la canule de retour du robinet qui débouche dans le collecteur au-delà du cloisonnement obturé.When the radiator connection must be of the monotube type, i.e. must be done by a single port using a tap type monotube, the closure element includes a socket stepped, made of metal, synthetic material or rubber engaging in the partition opening and internally receiving, with seal, the cannula back from the tap which opens into the collector beyond the closed partition.
La douille étagée peut présenter une extrémité obturable sécable en permettant d'obtenir, par une simple découpe, le diamètre ajusté à la canule ou sonde du robinet de raccordement. Lorsqu'elle est réalisée en caoutchouc, la douille peut présenter une forme conique en raison de l'élasticité de cette matière.The stepped socket may have a closable, breakable end, making it possible to obtain, by a simple cut, the diameter adjusted to the cannula or connection valve probe. When she is made of rubber, the socket may have a conical shape due to the elasticity of this matter.
Le montage étanche de la douille étagée sur le bord de l'ouverture ménagée dans le cloisonnement peut s'effectuer en force, par vissage ou crantage, ou à l'aide de clips de maintien.The watertight mounting of the stepped socket on the edge of the opening in the partition can be done by force, by screwing or notching, or using retaining clips.
Pour bien faire comprendre le dispositif
selon l'invention on en décrira ci-après, à titre
d'exemples sans caractère limitatif, des formes
d'exécution préférées en référence au dessin schématique
annexé dans lequel :
En référence à la figure 1 on a représenté
un radiateur tubulaire comportant deux tubes collecteurs
1,1' horizontaux reliés ensemble par des tubes émetteurs
verticaux 2 dont chacun communique par une ouverture
supérieure avec le collecteur supérieur 1 et, par une
ouverture inférieure 3 (voir figure 2), avec le
collecteur inférieur 1'.Referring to Figure 1, there is shown
a tubular radiator comprising two collecting tubes
1.1 'horizontal connected together by transmitter tubes
vertical 2 each of which communicates through an opening
upper with the
Chaque collecteur 1,1' comporte, vers
chacune de ses extrémités, un cloisonnement transversal
4 en métal fixé par soudage (ou positionné en force) à
la paroi intérieure du collecteur et présentant un
passage 5 de grand diamètre. Chaque cloisonnement 4,
dans l'exemple représenté, est disposé à l'intérieur du
collecteur entre les ouvertures de raccordement du
deuxième et du troisième tubes émetteurs 2.Each 1.1 ′ collector comprises, towards
each of its ends, a
Selon le mode de raccordement que l'on désire établir, on obture au moyen d'un opercule l'ouverture de l'un des quatre cloisonnements que présente le radiateur. Le cloisonnement 4 dont l'ouverture 5 est à obturer étant celui disposé au voisinage de l'extrémité de collecteur par laquelle doit s'effectuer le raccordement d'alimentation.Depending on the connection method wish to establish, we seal with a seal the opening of one of the four partitions that presents the radiator. Partitioning 4 including the opening 5 is to be closed being that disposed at the neighborhood of the collector end by which must make the power connection.
Dans l'exemple du radiateur de la figure 1,
on a supposé qu'on désire obtenir un raccordement de
type bi-tube (c'est-à-dire avec orifices d'entrée et de
sortie distincts) sur le collecteur inférieur 1' du
radiateur. A cet effet, on a obturé de façon étanche par
un opercule 6, ayant la forme d'un simple bouchon en
matière synthétique monté à force, l'ouverture 5 du
cloisonnement 4 placé à l'extrémité de droite du
collecteur inférieur 1' en regardant la figure 1. Avec
ce montage le fluide caloporteur, débouchant par
l'orifice d'entrée 7 dans l'extrémité de droite du
collecteur 1', est contraint de monter dans les deux
premiers tubes verticaux 2 puis de s'écouler dans le
collecteur supérieur 1, en traversant les cloisonnements
ouverts 4 de ce collecteur, pour revenir en descendant
le long des autres tubes émetteurs 2 et en rejoignant le
collecteur inférieur 1' jusqu'à l'orifice de sortie 8.In the example of the radiator in Figure 1,
we have assumed that we want to obtain a connection of
twin-tube type (i.e. with inlet and
separate outlet) on the lower collector 1 'of the
radiator. To this end, we sealed off with
a
Avec la même structure de collecteurs à
cloisonnements obturables 4, on aurait tout aussi bien
pu effectuer le raccordement du radiateur sur le
collecteur supérieur 1 de celui-ci, en obturant soit le
cloisonnement annulaire de gauche du collecteur
supérieur 1 (si l'orifice d'entrée devait être disposé à
droite sur ce collecteur) soit le cloisonnement
annulaire de droite de ce collecteur 1 (si l'orifice
d'entrée devait être disposé à gauche sur ce
collecteur).With the same structure of collectors
Pour permettre, lors du raccordement du
radiateur, la mise en place facile de l'opercule 6 dans
l'ouverture 5 du cloisonnement approprié 4 du
collecteur, au moyen d'un outil approprié, les deux
extrémités 9 de chacun des deux collecteurs 1,1'
présentent une ouverture 10 obturée de façon étanche par
un bouchon amovible 10'. Pour simplifier le dessin, à la
figure 1, seule une extrémité de l'un des deux
collecteurs 1 et 1' a été représentée équipée d'un tel
bouchon amovible 10', mais on comprendra que pour
permettre l'universalité de raccordement du radiateur
les deux extrémités des deux collecteurs 1,1' doivent
être ainsi équipées.To allow, when connecting the
radiator, easy installation of the
Les cloisonnements transversaux 4 peuvent
être en métal,ou en un matériau de synthèse approprié.
Ils se fixent sur la paroi intérieure du collecteur par
soudage, soudobrasage, collage, montage en force ou
sertissage. L'orifice intérieur du cloisonnement,
destiné à recevoir l'opercule, peut être lisse, fileté,
cranté, ou présenter des clips, selon le mode de
fixation de l'opercule.The
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté aux
figures 3 et 4, l'opercule 6' présente la forme d'un
bouchon étagé sécable en matière synthétique,
particulièrement visible sur la figure 4. Un tel bouchon
présente la particularité qu'il peut non seulemnt être
utilisé pour un raccordement de type bi-tube comme aux
figures 1 et 2, mais aussi être utilisé dans le cas d'un
raccordement sur un orifice unique au moyen d'un robinet
dit monotube, comme on le verra plus loin en référence
aux figures 5 et 6. Pour cette dernière application, on
découpe alors l'extrémité obturée 11 du bouchon 6' à une
hauteur le long du corps du bouchon telle que le
diamètre intérieur de l'extrémité du bouchon 6' après
découpe corresponde au diamètre extérieur de la canule
du robinet.In the embodiment shown in
Figures 3 and 4, the cover 6 'has the shape of a
split plastic stopper,
particularly visible in Figure 4. Such a plug
has the particularity that it can not only be
used for a bi-tube type connection like aux
Figures 1 and 2, but also be used in the case of a
connection to a single orifice by means of a tap
says monotube, as we will see later in reference
in Figures 5 and 6. For this last application, we
then cut the closed
Dans la forme d'exécution des figures 5 et
6, on a représenté un tel raccordement monotube sur
l'orifice 20 ménagé dans l'extrémité 9' du collecteur
inférieur 1' du radiateur. Le robinet de raccordement 12
utilisé comprend un conduit extérieur d'alimentation 13
débouchant dans la chambre 14, déterminée dans
l'extrémité de droite du collecteur 1', entre la paroi
d'extrémité 9' et le cloisonnement 4, pour alimenter les
deux premiers tubes émetteurs 2, et une canule de sortie
15 qui passe à l'intérieur du conduit 13, traverse une
douille 16 engagée dans l'ouverture du cloisonnement 4
et débouche dans la partie centrale du collecteur 1'
au-delà de ce cloisonnement.In the embodiment of Figures 5 and
6, such a monotube connection has been shown on
the
On comprend que le fluide caloporteur,
rentrant en 17 dans le robinet 12, alimenta la chambre
14 du collecteur 1', parcourt les deux premiers tubes
émetteurs 2 du radiateur, puis circule dans le
collecteur supérieur 1, revient par les autres tubes 2
dans le collecteur 1', et s'évacue par le tube intérieur
15 pour sortir du robinet 12 en 18.We understand that the heat transfer fluid,
entering 17 in
La douille 16 est une douille étagée sécable
en matière plastique qui, avant d'être mise en place
dans l'ouverture du cloisonnement 4, est découpée à la
longueur appropriée pour que le diamètre intérieur de
son extrémité coupée s'ajuste au diamètre extérieur de
la canule 15, de façon à assurer une bonne étanchéité
entre les chambres ménagées à l'intérieur du collecteur
1', de part et d'autre du cloisonnement 4.The
On comprend aussi, bien qu'on ne l'ait pas
représenté à la figure 5 pour simplifier le dessin, que
chaque collecteur 1,1' comprend un orifice obturable à
chacune des extrémités de façon que le raccordement du
robinet 12 puisse s'effectuer à volonté à n'importe
lequel des quatre angles du radiateur.We also understand, although we don't have it
shown in Figure 5 to simplify the drawing, that
each 1.1 'manifold includes a closable orifice
each of the ends so that the connection of the
Enfin, à la figure 7, on a montré en variante le raccordement d'un robinet monotube 12' à l'extrémité inférieure de l'un des deux collecteurs verticaux d'un radiateur à tubes émetteurs 2' horizontaux.Finally, in Figure 7, we have shown in variant the connection of a 12 'one-pipe tap to the lower end of one of the two collectors vertical of a radiator with emitting tubes 2 ' horizontal.
A la figure 8 on a représenté deux
radiateurs tubulaires équipés tous deux selon
l'invention, c'est-à-dire dont les collecteurs 21,21'
comportent, au voisinage de chaque extrémité, un
cloisonnement transversal 24 présentant une ouverture 25
de grand diamètre. Les collecteurs supérieurs 21 et les
collecteurs inférieurs 21' des deux radiateurs sont
reliés entre eux, respectivement, par des raccords
conventionnels 22. Par assemblage des deux radiateurs,
on obtient donc un radiateur de plus grande dimension
qui présente la même universalité de raccordement que
chacun des deux radiateurs. Le mode de raccordement du
grand radiateur ainsi obtenu sera choisi sur le
chantier, après assemblage, par disposition de
l'opercule 26 dans l'ouverture 25 du cloisonnement 24
approprié.In Figure 8 there are shown two
tubular radiators both fitted according to
the invention, that is to say whose
De cette façon on peut éviter la fabrication d'appareils qui, étant de grandes dimentions, sont très lourds et sont souvent rendus défectueux à la suite du transport et de la manutention sur chantier.In this way we can avoid manufacturing of devices which, being large dimensions, are very heavy and are often defective as a result of transport and handling on site.
