Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abdeckvorrichtung für Heizkörper oder dgl. Körper nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a covering device for radiators or the like. Body according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es sind bereits Abdeckvorrichtungen für Heizkörper oder dergleichen Körper bekannt, die einen Heizkörper an dessen oberen und seitlichen Enden abdecken. Zu diesem Zwecke umfassen Abdeckvorrichtungen herkömmlicher Art seitliche Abdeckelemente, sog. Seitenblenden, wie beispielsweise Abdeckbleche oder Abdeckgitter, die durch Schraubverbindungen seitlich an dem Heizkörper befestigt sind. Anschließend wird ein oberes Abdeckelement auf den Heizkörper aufgesetzt, welches nicht nur das obere Ende des Heizkörpers abdeckt, sondern auch die seitlichen Abdeckbleche umgreift und diese überlappt.Covering devices for radiators or similar bodies are already known, which cover a radiator at its upper and lateral ends. For this purpose, cover devices of a conventional type include side cover elements, so-called side panels, such as cover plates or cover grids, which are fastened to the side of the radiator by screw connections. An upper cover element is then placed on the radiator, which not only covers the upper end of the radiator, but also encompasses and overlaps the side cover plates.

Aus der DE-GM 71 47 611 ist es bekannt, Heizkörper mit Platten zu verkleiden, die durch Steckverbindungen miteinander verbindbar sind. Dabei handelt es sich um modulare Platten bzw. Elemente (vgl. DE-GM 73 32 339), welche eine einheitliche Größe aufweisen, die zu beliebig großen Abdeckelementen zusammengesetzt werden können. Diese Konzeptionen weisen jedoch verschiedene Nachteile auf. Entweder können sie an den Heizkörpern nicht befestigt werden, oder sie schließen nicht formschlüssig ab. Auch sind diese

nur für sehr spezielle Heizkörper geeignet, die zufällig ein Vielfaches der Größe dieser Platten aufweisen. Auch ist die Stabilität meist mangelhaft und der Abstand zum Heizkörper ist sehr groß, so daß das Gesamtvolumen des abgedeckten Körpers zunimmt. Es ergibt sich auch kein formschöner Eindruck, da die Abdeckelemente nicht mit dem Heizkörper

DE-GM 73 32 339), which have a uniform size and can be assembled to cover elements of any size. However, these concepts have various disadvantages. Either they cannot be attached to the radiators or they do not close in a form-fitting manner. These are also

only suitable for very special radiators that happen to be a multiple of the size of these panels. The stability is usually poor and the distance from the radiator is very large, so that the total volume of the covered body increases. There is also no elegant impression, since the cover elements are not with the radiator

Desweiteren sind Abdeckvorrichtungen bekannt (DE 295 11 988 U1), die durch ein oberes Abdeckelement oder durch ein oberes Abdeckgitter abgedeckt werden, die jeweils an deren seitlichen Enden um 90° abgewinkelt sind und zumindest teilweise den Heizkörper auch seitlich abdecken. Anschließend werden die entsprechenden seitlichen Abdeckelemente aufgebracht, die wiederum an dem Heizkörper befestigbar sind und das obere Abdeckelement auf den Seiten überlappen. Dabei sind insbesondere Öffnungen in den seitlichen Abdeckelementen vorgesehen, durch welche Verbindungsrohre an den Heizkörper angeschlossen werden können, um diesen mit dem Heizmedium beschicken zu können und um das in dem Heizkörper abgekühlte Medium auch wieder abfließen zu lassen.Furthermore, covering devices are known (DE 295 11 988 U1), which are covered by an upper covering element or by an upper covering grille, which are each angled by 90 ° at their lateral ends and at least partially cover the heating element laterally. Then the corresponding side cover elements are applied, which in turn can be attached to the radiator and overlap the upper cover element on the sides. In particular, openings are provided in the side cover elements, through which connecting pipes can be connected to the heating element in order to be able to load the heating medium with it and to allow the medium cooled in the heating element to flow off again.

Der mit diesen Abdeckelementen abgedeckte Heizkörper stellt ein Heizelement dar, welches nicht nur an dessen Frontseiten durch die Flächen des Heizkörpers selbst oder durch Frontplatten, sondern auch an den oberen und seitlichen Flächen durch die Abdeckelemente gegen Staub und Schmutzpartikel und darüber hinaus gegen Verletzungsgefahr gesichert ist. Darüber hinaus gewährleistet die Abdeckvorrichtung, daß der Einblick zum Heizkörper verwehrt bleibt und sich dadurch ein formschönerer Eindruck ergibt, als wenn Heizkörper ohne zusätzliche Blenden innerhalb eines Raumes postiert sind.The radiator covered with these cover elements is a heating element that is secured not only on the front sides by the surfaces of the radiator itself or by front panels, but also on the top and side surfaces by the cover elements against dust and dirt particles and also against the risk of injury. In addition, the cover device ensures that the view of the radiator is denied and this results in a more elegant impression than when radiators are positioned within a room without additional panels.

Die herkömmlichen Abdeckvorrichtungen weisen dabei den Nachteil auf, daß die sich gegeneinander überlappenden oberen und seitlichen Abdeckelemente zum einen eine mangelnde Passform aufweisen und oftmals unschöne Spalte hinterlassen, als auch an diesen Stellen ein Eindringen von Schmutzpartikeln und Staub ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus stellen die oft scharfkantigen Enden der Abdeckbleche, die sich teilweise gegeneinander überlappen, eine Verletzungsgefahr dar, die insb. beim Putzen aber auch bei einem versehentlichen Anstoßen an den Heizkörper gegeben ist.The conventional cover devices have the disadvantage that the overlapping top and side cover elements have a poor fit on the one hand and often leave unsightly gaps, and also allow dirt particles and dust to penetrate at these points. In addition, the often sharp-edged ends of the cover plates, which partially overlap one another, represent a risk of injury, which is given in particular when cleaning but also when the radiator is accidentally struck.

Desweiteren weisen diese Heizkörper den Nachteil auf, daß Personen, die nahe an dem Heizkörper vorbeigehen, mit ihrer Kleidung an den scharfkantigen Ecken hängenbleiben und diese die entsprechenden Kleidungsstücke, wie beispielsweise Röcke oder Mäntel, zerreißen können. Auch ist die Montage dieser Abdeckvorrichtungen oftmals langwierig und kompliziert und verzögert die Gesamtmontagezeit eines Heizkörpers insb. an unzugänglichen Stellen, wie beispielsweise innerhalb von Mauervorsprüngen und unterhalb von Fenstern, da meist eine Vielzahl von zusätzlichen Verbindungselementen notwendig ist, um die Abdeckelemente miteinander zu verbinden.Furthermore, these radiators have the disadvantage that people who walk close to the radiator get stuck with their clothes on the sharp corners and these can tear the corresponding items of clothing, such as skirts or coats. The assembly of these cover devices is often lengthy and complicated and delays the overall assembly time of a radiator, in particular inaccessible places, such as inside wall projections and below windows, since a large number of additional connecting elements is usually necessary to connect the cover elements to one another.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, eine Abdeckvorrichtung für Heizkörper anzugeben, die den zu verkleidenden Baukörper formschön abdeckt und gleichzeitig die Nachteile der herkömmlichen Abdeckvorrichtungen vermeidet, d.h. eine Verletzungsgefahr ausschließt und die Montage der Abdeckvorrichtung an beispielsweise Heizkörper vereinfacht.The object of the present invention is to provide a covering device for radiators which elegantly covers the structure to be clad and at the same time avoids the disadvantages of the conventional covering devices, i.e. excludes a risk of injury and simplifies the assembly of the cover device on, for example, radiators.

Darüber hinaus soll die Abdeckvorrichtung den Heizkörper zuverlässig und ästhetisch gefällig abdecken und ein einfaches Putzen des Heizkörpers ermöglichen. Dem jeweiligen Benutzer der Abdeckvorrichtung sollen gleichzeitig Möglichkeiten gegeben werden, die Abdeckvorrichtung an seinen individuellen Geschmack anpassen zu können.In addition, the cover should cover the radiator reliably and aesthetically pleasing and allow easy cleaning of the radiator. At the same time, the respective user of the covering device should be given possibilities to be able to adapt the covering device to his individual taste.

Die Erfindung ist in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichnet und in Unteransprüchen sind weitere Verbesserungen beansprucht. Danach ist bei der erfindungsgemäßen Abdeckvorrichtung für Heizkörper oder dergl. Baukörper das obere Abdeckelement mit seitlichen Abdeckelementen über je ein Verbindungselement formschlüssig verbindbar. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine geschlossene und sogar in sich steife Baueinheit der Abdeckvorrichtung und es werden Überlappungen und Anpassungsprobleme bei der Montage der Abdeckvorrichtungen vermieden. Durch das formschlüssige Verbinden des oberen Abdeckelements mit den entsprechenden seitlichen Abdeckelementen wird ein Verletzungsrisiko an den scharfkantigen Enden der Abdeckbleche vermieden, da diese nun nicht mehr hervorstehend um die an dem Heizkörper hantierende Person zu verletzen. Dafür sind Verbindungselemente vorgesehen, die das obere Abdeckelement und die seitlichen Abdeckelemente derart verbinden, daß die scharfkantigen Enden der jeweiligen Abdeckbleche verborgen bleiben. Diese Verbindungselemente sind in das obere Abdeckelement und in die seitlichen Abdeckelemente jeweils einsteckbar. Zu diesem Zwecke weisen die Verbindungselemente zueinander beispielsweise rechtwinkelig angeordnete Kupplungsteile auf, die in die Abdeckelemente einsteckbar sind und diese fest an den Verbindungselementen arretieren. Dabei weist das Verbindungselement Eckteile auf, die derart mit den Abdeckelementen formschlüssig abschließen, daß die Ebenen der Außenflächen der betreffenden Abdeckelemente fortgesetzt werden und damit die scharfkantigen Enden der entsprechenden Blenden derart an den Eckteilen anstoßen, daß die scharfkantigen Enden nicht mehr abstehen.The invention is characterized in claim 1 and further improvements are claimed in subclaims. According to this, in the covering device according to the invention for radiators or the like, the upper covering element can be positively connected with lateral covering elements via a connecting element in each case. This results in a closed and even stiff structural unit of the covering device and overlaps and adjustment problems during the assembly of the covering devices are avoided. By the positive connection of the upper cover element with the corresponding side A risk of injury at the sharp-edged ends of the cover plates is avoided since the cover elements no longer protrude in order to injure the person handling the heating element. For this purpose, connecting elements are provided which connect the upper cover element and the side cover elements in such a way that the sharp-edged ends of the respective cover plates remain hidden. These connecting elements can each be inserted into the upper cover element and into the lateral cover elements. For this purpose, the connecting elements have, for example, coupling parts arranged at right angles to one another, which can be inserted into the cover elements and lock them firmly on the connecting elements. The connecting element has corner parts that form-fit with the cover elements in such a way that the planes of the outer surfaces of the cover elements in question are continued and thus the sharp-edged ends of the corresponding panels abut the corner parts in such a way that the sharp-edged ends no longer protrude.

Um nun die entsprechenden Kupplungsteile in die Abdeckelemente einstecken zu können, ist es vorteilhaft, die entsprechenden Abdeckelemente seitlich durch Profilrundungen abzuschließen, in welche die Kupplungsteile einschiebbar sind. So bilden das obere Abdeckelement mit den seitlichen Abdeckelementen eine integrierte Baueinheit, die dann insgesamt entweder auf den Heizkörper von oben aufgeschoben ist, so daß die seitlichen Enden des Heizkörpers die Abdeckvorrichtung arretieren, oder indem die geschlossene Baueinheit an dem Heizkörper über Befestigungselemente befestigbar ist. Diese Befestigungselemente können beispielsweise Laschen sein, die auf den Anschlußorganen des jeweiligen Körpers anbringbar sind. Da die seitlichen Abdeckelemente mit dem oberen Abdeckelement eine geschlossene Baueinheit bilden, die eine selbständige Eigenstabilität aufweist, ist ein Befestigen der Abdeckvorrichtung an dem entsprechenden Körper nicht notwendigerweise zwingend, was die spätere Demontage der Abdeckvorrichtung um ein Vielfaches erleichert und auch etwaige Putzvorgänge am Heizkörper um ein Vielfaches erleichtert.In order to be able to insert the corresponding coupling parts into the cover elements, it is advantageous to end the corresponding cover elements laterally by rounding the profile into which the coupling parts can be inserted. Thus, the upper cover element with the side cover elements form an integrated unit, which is then either pushed onto the radiator from above, so that the lateral ends of the radiator lock the cover device, or by the closed unit can be fastened to the radiator via fastening elements. These fasteners can be, for example, tabs that can be attached to the connection members of the respective body. Since the side cover elements form a closed structural unit with the upper cover element, which has an independent inherent stability, fastening the cover device to the corresponding body is not absolutely necessary, which simplifies the subsequent disassembly of the cover device many times and also any cleaning operations on the radiator Much easier.

Die entsprechenden Abdeckelemente können entweder aus Metall oder wärme- bzw. kältebeständigem Kunststoff bestehen, ebenso wie die die Abdeckelemente verbindende Verbindungselemente. Um nun etwaige Putzvorgänge weiter zu erleichtern und um eventuell auch den Heizvorgang eines Raumes zu beschleunigen, ist es vorteilhaft, daß das obere Abdeckelement in eine Richtung um eine längs eines Randes sich erstreckende Schwenkachse schwenkbar ist. Dabei ist beispielsweise das obere Abdeckelement auf einer Seite der beiden Verbindungselemente über eine Schnappverbindung mit den entsprechenden Kupplungsteilen verbindbar. Die jeweiligen Kupplungsteile auf der anderen Seite der beiden Verbindungselemente dienen dann als Scharnier bzw. als Schwenkachse. So können auch die seitlichen Abdeckelemente über Schnappverbindungen mit den Kupplungsteilen verbunden werden.The corresponding cover elements can either consist of metal or heat or cold-resistant plastic, as can the connecting elements connecting the cover elements. In order to further facilitate any cleaning operations and possibly also to accelerate the heating operation of a room, it is advantageous that the upper cover element can be pivoted in one direction about a pivot axis extending along an edge. For example, the upper cover element on one side of the two connecting elements can be connected to the corresponding coupling parts via a snap connection. The respective coupling parts on the other side of the two connecting elements then serve as a hinge or as a pivot axis. The side cover elements can also be connected to the coupling parts via snap connections.

Um nun den Heizkörper, an einer Wand zu befestigen, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn z.B. eine obere Kralle einer Befestigungsvorrichtung durch das obere Abdeckelement den Heizkörper arretiert und diesen dadurch befestigt. Dabei ist die obere durch das Abdeckelement eingreifende Kralle derart gestaltet, daß sie einen Schwenkvorgang des oberen Abdeckelements nicht behindert.In order to attach the radiator to a wall, it is advantageous if, for example, an upper claw Fastening device locked the radiator through the upper cover and thereby fastened it. The upper claw engaging through the cover element is designed in such a way that it does not hinder a pivoting operation of the upper cover element.

Die jeweiligen Abdeckelemente sind an den sich in Längsrichtung erstreckenden Seitenrändern umgebogen, um vorteilhafterweise zum einen das Einstecken der jeweiligen Kupplungsteile der Verbindungselemente zu gewährleisten als auch zum anderen die entsprechenden Ränder des Heizkörpers zu umfassen und diesen formschön abzuschließen.The respective cover elements are bent over on the longitudinally extending side edges, in order to advantageously ensure that the respective coupling parts of the connecting elements are inserted as well as to encompass the corresponding edges of the radiator and to close it off in an elegant manner.

Um nun den individuellen Wünschen des Heizkörperbenutzers Rechnung zu tragen, können die Verbindungselemente, die an den oberen Ecken des Heizkörpers vorhanden sind, in unterschiedlichen Farben, Materialien und Formen ausgestaltet sein, die dadurch den Kühl- und/oder Heizkörper ästhetisch verschönern und ihn dadurch auch an exponierter Stelle im Raum "salonfähig" machen.In order to take into account the individual wishes of the radiator user, the connecting elements that are present at the upper corners of the radiator can be designed in different colors, materials and shapes, which thereby aesthetically beautify the radiator and / or radiator and thereby also make "socially acceptable" at an exposed point in the room.

Dabei können die seitlichen Abdeckelemente 3,4 einfach nur auf den Heizkörper 1 aufgeschoben sein, da die durch die Verbindungselemente 5a und 5b verbundenen Abdeckelemente 2,3,4 eine eigensteife Baueinheit bilden, die als Ganzes über den Heizkörper 1 "gezogen" werden kann. Dabei zeigt die Schwenkachse x diejenige Achse auf der oberen Seite des Heizkörpers 1, um die das obere Abdeckelement 2 schwenkbar ist.Figure 1 shows the front view of a radiator 1, which is covered by an upper cover element 2 and side cover elements 3 and 4 which are connected to each other via the connecting elements 5a and 5b. The side cover elements 3, 4 can simply be pushed onto the heating element 1, since the covering elements 2, 3, 4 connected by the connecting elements 5 a and 5 b form an inherently rigid structural unit which can be “pulled” as a whole over the heating element 1. The pivot axis x shows that axis on the upper side of the radiator 1 about which the upper cover element 2 can be pivoted.

Figur 2 zeigt einen Vertikalschnitt durch das obere Abdeckelement 2, welches auf den seitlichen Körperelementen des Heizkörpers 1 aufliegt und diese am Rand umfaßt, wobei das Verbindungselement 5b das obere Abdeckelement 2 mit dem rechten seitlichen Abdeckelemente 3 verbindet. Auf der Rückseite der seitlichen Abdeckelements 3 bzw. 4 ist beispielsweise eine Lasche 10 vorhanden, die auf das Anschlußorgan 9 aufschiebbar bzw. befestigbar ist, um dadurch die Abdeckelemente 3 bzw. 4 und damit die gesamte Abdeckvorrichtung zusätzlich zu arretieren. Außerdem ist eine Haltevorrichtung 12 vorgesehen mit einer oberen Kralle, die in das obere Abdeckelement 2 eingreift. Der Eingriff sollte so gestaltet sein, daß ein "Nach Oben-Schwenken" des oberen Abdeckelements 2 in der Schwenkvorrichtung K möglich ist.FIG. 2 shows a vertical section through the upper cover element 2, which rests on the side body elements of the radiator 1 and surrounds them at the edge, the connecting element 5b connecting the upper cover element 2 to the right side cover element 3. On the back of the side cover elements 3 and 4, for example, there is a tab 10 which can be pushed or fastened onto the connecting element 9, in order thereby to additionally lock the cover elements 3 and 4 and thus the entire cover device. In addition, a holding device 12 is provided with an upper claw, which engages in the upper cover element 2. The engagement should be designed so that a "swiveling upwards" of the upper cover element 2 in the swivel device K is possible.

Figur 3 zeigt die Seitenansicht auf ein Verbindungselement 5 (beispielsweise das Verbindungselement 5b der Figur 2), mit den vertikalen Kupplungsteilen 7 und den dazu senkrecht, d.h. unter rechtem Winkel angeordneten horizontalen Kupplungsteilen 8. Dabei sind die Kupplungsteile 7 und 8 zu dem Eckprofil 13 um die Dicke d nach innen verschoben, so daß bei einem späteren Aufschieben der Abdeckelemente 2, 3 oder 4, die jeweils ebenfalls die Dicke d aufweisen, diese formschlüssig mit dem Eckprofil 13 abschließen. Figur 3 zeigt ebenfalls die Frontansicht eines Verbindungselements 5 mit dem Eckteil 13 und den Kupplungsteilen 7 und 8. Das obere Abdeckelement 2 kann in die Kupplungsteile 8 und ein seitliches Abdeckelement 4 kann in die Kupplungsteile 7 eingeschoben werden. Dabei ist darauf zu achten, daß die Kupplungsteile 7 oder 8 mindestens um die Distanz d gegenüber der äußeren Ausdehnung des Eckteils 13 nach innen verschoben sind, um die scharfkantigen Enden der entsprechenden Abdeckelemente zu verbergen. So kann insb. das Eckteil 13 unterschiedliche Ausgestaltungen und Ausformungen annehmen und mit unterschiedlichen Farben koloriert sein, um dadurch den individuellen Wünschen des Heizkörperbenutzers Rechnung zu tragen. Denkbar wären hier Eckteile aus einer gegenüber dem Abdeckelement sich abhebenden Kontrastfarbe oder die Ausformung von besonderen Profilen oder Wölbungen, die auch teilweise über die Abdeckelemente überstehen können, so daß die Enden der entsprechenden Abdeckelemente vollständig innerhalb des Verbindungselements 5 verschwinden.FIG. 3 shows the side view of a connecting element 5 (for example the connecting element 5b from FIG. 2), with the vertical coupling parts 7 and with the horizontal coupling parts 8 arranged perpendicular thereto, ie at right angles. The coupling parts 7 and 8 form the corner profile 13 the thickness d shifted inwards, so that when the cover elements 2, 3 or 4, which also each have the thickness d, are slid on later, they form-fit with the corner profile 13. FIG. 3 also shows the front view of a connecting element 5 with the corner part 13 and the coupling parts 7 and 8. The upper cover element 2 can be inserted into the coupling parts 8 and a side covering element 4 can be inserted into the coupling parts 7. Care must be taken to ensure that the coupling parts 7 or 8 are displaced inward at least by the distance d from the outer extent of the corner part 13 in order to hide the sharp-edged ends of the corresponding cover elements. In particular, the corner part 13 can take on different configurations and shapes and can be colored with different colors, in order thereby to take into account the individual wishes of the radiator user. Corner parts made of a contrasting color that contrasts with the cover element would be conceivable here or the formation of special profiles or curvatures, which can also partially protrude beyond the cover elements, so that the ends of the corresponding cover elements completely disappear within the connecting element 5.

Figur 4 zeigt schematisch die Frontansicht einer Seite des Heizkörpers 1 nach Figur 1, mit dem oberen Abdeckelement 2, dem seitlichen Abdeckelement 3 und dem diese beiden Abdeckelemente verbindende Verbindungselement 5, welche auf den Heizkörper 1 aufgesetzt sind. Das seitliche Abdeckelement 3 hat eine obere Öffnung 16 und eine untere Öffnung 17, an welche jeweils die für die Zu- oder Abführung von Wärmemedien verantwortlichen Anschlußelemente angeschlossen werden können. Diese durch die Öffnungen 16 und 17 einführbaren Anschlußelemente werden dann an die Anschlußorgane 9 angeschlossen.FIG. 4 schematically shows the front view of one side of the heating element 1 according to FIG. 1, with the upper covering element 2, the lateral covering element 3 and the connecting element 5 connecting these two covering elements, which are placed on the heating element 1. The side cover element 3 has an upper opening 16 and a lower opening 17, to each of which the connection elements responsible for the supply or discharge of heat media can be connected. These insertable through the openings 16 and 17 connecting elements are then connected to the connecting members 9.

Figur 5 zeigt die Seiten-, Front- und Rückansicht des Verbindungselements 5 mit den Kupplungsteilen 7 und 8 und dem Eckprofil 13 in einer abgeänderten Ausführungsform. Dabei sind rüsselartige Sperrorgane bzw. Zapfen 20 vorgesehen, die in die in Fig. 6 gezeigten Öffnungen 14 bzw. in die in Fig. 7 gezeigten Öffnungen 14a der Abdeckelemente einrasten bzw. einschnappen, um dadurch die Abdeckelemente 2,3 und 4 an den Verbindungselementen 5 zu arretieren. Diese Sperrorgane 20 sind an federelastischen Laschen der Verbindungselemente 5 befestigt, so daß ein Einrasten bzw. Auslösen der Sperrorgane 20 (Zapfen) in bzw. aus den Öffnungen 14 bzw. 14a ermöglicht wird.Figure 5 shows the side, front and rear view of the connecting element 5 with the coupling parts 7 and 8 and the corner profile 13 in a modified embodiment. In this case, trunk-like locking members or pins 20 are provided, which snap or snap into the openings 14 shown in FIG. 6 or into the openings 14 a of the cover elements shown in FIG. 7, in order to thereby cover elements 2, 3 and 4 on the connecting elements 5 to lock. These locking members 20 are attached to resilient tabs of the connecting elements 5, so that the locking members 20 (pins) can be snapped into or out of the openings 14 or 14a.

Figur 6 zeigt die Front- und Seitenansicht sowie die Aufsicht des oberen Abdeckelements 2, welches Längsöffnungen 15 aufweist, so daß hier die warme Luft des Heizkörpers 1 nach oben steigen kann. Das obere Abdeckelement 2 sowie die seitlichen Abdeckelemente 3 bzw. 4 könnten auch Öffnungen 14 bzw. 14a aufweisen, durch welche diese an dem Verbindungselement 5 befestigbar sind. Dazu dienen beispielsweise Schraub- oder Schnappverbindungen mit dem Verbindungselement 5. Das obere Abdeckelement 2 weist abgerundete Ränder 6a und 6b auf, welche die oberen Kanten des Heizkörpers 1 umfassen. Die seitlichen Ränder des oberen Abdeckelements 2, welche mit dem Verbindungselement 5 in Eingriff gelangen und deshalb keine Öffnungen 15 aufweisen, besitzen die Dicke d, um beim Einschieben des Verbindungselements 5 mit dem Eckprofil 13 bündig abzuschließen.Figure 6 shows the front and side view and the top view of the upper cover 2, which has longitudinal openings 15, so that here the warm air of the radiator 1 can rise upwards. The upper cover element 2 and the side cover elements 3 and 4 could also have openings 14 and 14a, through which these can be fastened to the connecting element 5. Screw or snap connections to the connecting element 5 are used for this purpose. The upper cover element 2 has rounded edges 6a and 6b which encompass the upper edges of the heating element 1. The lateral edges of the upper cover element 2, which come into engagement with the connecting element 5 and therefore have no openings 15, have the thickness d in order to be flush with the corner profile 13 when the connecting element 5 is inserted.

Figur 7 zeigt die Aufsicht sowie Seiten- und Frontansicht der seitlichen Abdeckelemente 3 oder 4 mit den beiden Öffnungen 16 und 17, welche für Anschlußelemente vorgesehen sein können, die an Anschlußorganen 9 befestigt werden. Des weiteren können Befestigungselemente, wie Schrauben, durch Öffnungen 11 vorgesehen sein. Eine Lasche 10, welche an dem Anschlußorgan 9 befestigbar ist, befindet sich hinter der Öffnung 16. Dabei greift die Lasche 10 in ein entsprechendes Gegenstück an dem unteren Anschlußorgan 9 ein oder ist entsprechend groß ausgebildet, um das Anschlußorgan 9 zu umfassen. Auch dieses Abdeckelement weist auf den Seiten jeweils Rundungen auf, die sowohl zur Aufnahme der Kupplungsteile 7 bzw. 8 dienen als auch den Heizkörper 1 an dessem oberen Ende umfassen. Dabei weist dieses Abdeckelement die Dicke d auf, um damit beim Aufschieben auf das Kupplungsteil 7 mit dem Eckprofil 13 bündig abzuschließen.FIG. 7 shows the top view and the side and front view of the side cover elements 3 or 4 with the two openings 16 and 17, which can be provided for connection elements which are fastened to connection elements 9. Fastening elements, such as screws, can also be provided through openings 11. A tab 10, which can be fastened to the connecting element 9, is located behind the opening 16. The tab 10 engages in a corresponding counterpart on the lower connecting element 9 or is of a correspondingly large size in order to enclose the connecting element 9. This cover element also has curves on the sides, which both serve to receive the coupling parts 7 and 8 and also encompass the radiator 1 at its upper end. Here this cover element has the thickness d in order to be flush with the corner profile 13 when it is pushed onto the coupling part 7.

Das Eckprofil 5 ebenso wie die Abdeckelemente 2, 3 oder 4 können aus den verschiedensten Materialien wie Kunststoff, Metall oder anderen formstabilen Werkstoffen, wie beispielsweise Holz bestehen, die gegenüber der Wärme des Heizkörpers 1 beständig sind und die je nach Anwendungszweck und Anwendungsart unterschiedlich ausgeformt und mit einer unterschiedlichen Farbe versehen sein können. Auch gläserne Verbindungselemente 5 wären denkbar, die dann die jeweiligen Abdeckelemente "schwebend" erscheinen lassen würden.The corner profile 5 as well as the cover elements 2, 3 or 4 can consist of a wide variety of materials such as plastic, metal or other dimensionally stable materials, such as wood, which are resistant to the heat of the radiator 1 and which are shaped and shaped differently depending on the application and type of application can be provided with a different color. Glass connecting elements 5 would also be conceivable, which would then make the respective covering elements appear "floating".
