Definitions

  • This invention concerns a mounting assembly and particularly but not exclusively an assembly for mounting a central heating radiator or similar item on a wall.
  • a mounting assembly for mounting a central heating radiator or similar item on a wall, the assembly comprising first mounting means for detachably mounting an upper part of the item on a wall, the first mounting means being selectively engageable with the item, and second mounting means for mounting a lower part of the item on a wall, the second mounting means being arranged such that when said upper part is detached from the wall the item can be pivotted about the second mounting means whereby to permit access to the wall previously behind the item.
  • the first mounting means preferably comprises a bracket arrangement including a first member mountable on a wall and a second member engageable with the item, the first and second members being selectively engageable together.
  • the first mounting means preferably comprises a plurality of bracket arrangements.
  • the second member may be engageable with the top or a side of the item, and may comprise a formation engageable with the top or side of a central heating radiator.
  • the bracket arrangement preferably comprises means selectively engageable between the first and second members, and said engageable means may comprise a screw or bolt.
  • the first mounting means may be arranged such that the engageable means may be accessed from the side and/or above the item.
  • the second mounting means preferably comprises a pair of spaced wall engaging brackets.
  • the brackets are preferably shaped to support the item and also permit the item to pivot thereover.
  • the brackets are preferably arranged to support the item beneath inlet and outlet pipes thereof.
  • the brackets preferably include a recess in which the respective pipe can be cradled.
  • Figs. 1-5 show a mounting assembly 10 for mounting a conventional single radiator 12 onto a wall 14.
  • the assembly 10 comprises a pair of spaced bracket arrangements 16.
  • Each arrangement 16 comprises an L-shaped bracket 18 mounted to the wall 14 by a hole 20 in its base 22.
  • a hole 24 is also provided through the side limb of the L, and a threaded collar 26 is provided on the inner side thereof.
  • Each arrangement 16 also comprises a further bracket 28 in the form of a strip of material with a slot 30 towards one end thereof.
  • the other end has a narrow U-shaped formation 32 in which the side edge of the radiator 12 is engageable.
  • the brackets 18,28 can be interconnected by respective bolts 34 engageable through the holes 24 and slots 30.
  • the assembly 10 also comprises a pair of lower brackets 36.
  • Each of the brackets 36 comprises a plate 38 mountable on the wall from which extends a strip 40.
  • the brackets 36 are mounted on the wall 14 so as to cradle and support respectively the inlet and outlet pipes 44,46 of the radiator 12.
  • the radiator 12 can be mounted such that the inlet and outlet pipes 44,46 rest in the respective recesses 42 and the brackets 28 engage with the brackets 18 and are held together by the bolts 34.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates the arrangement 16 being used in a slightly different manner as indicated by A.
  • the brackets 18,28 are arranged such that the formation 32 is engageable with the top edge of the radiator 12.
  • Whether the arrangements 16 are positioned to engage with the top and/or side edge of a radiator depends on particular conditions such as for instance whether the side edge of the radiator is against the wall and/or a shelf is provided above the radiator.
  • the inlet and outlet pipes 44,46 can be loosened a small degree by turning the lock nut 45 (see Fig. 4).
  • the brackets 18,28 can then be disengaged and the radiator pivotted downwardly to the position shown in Fig. 2.
  • Receptacles such as dishes can be provided below the pipes 44 and 46 in case any leakage occurs, though in practice any leakage has been found to be quite slight.
  • Figs. 6 and 7 show a similar assembly 48 with lower brackets 50 and upper bracket arrangements 52.
  • the assembly 48 mounts a double radiator 54.
  • the lower brackets 50 are similar to the brackets 36 except that the strips are longer to accommodate the extra width of radiator.
  • the arrangements 52 have identical brackets 18 but the further brackets 56 are longer, and rather than a U-shaped formation, comprise two projecting strips 60 engageable respectively against the inside side of the inner side edge, and the outer side of the outer side edge of the radiator 54. It is to be realised that the respective brackets can be provided in any required size or shape to accommodate different sizes and shapes of radiators.
  • the assemblies permit the radiator to be readily moved away from the wall without disconnection. This movement can be carried out in a few minutes by an unskilled person.
  • the arrangements are very flexible for use with different radiators and in difficult positions such as under shelves and/or in corners of the room.
  • the assemblies are of relatively simple construction and can thus be inexpensively and robustly manufactured. The assemblies can be used on existing radiators without the requirement for any alteration of the radiator.
  • the upper wall mounting brackets may be differently shaped. Slots could be provided in either or both of the upper brackets to accommodate different wall to radiator spacings.
