The plate has openings for the heating pipes and outlets so that the various pipes pass into the covered hollow region. The plate has a projecting edge (31) and guides (4) on the wall side. The plate is made either of a heat insulating material, or plastics, or card, cement or metal.

Description

The invention relates to a device for bottomless guiding of radiator inlet and outlet pipes.

The invention also has a method for concealed management of Radiator tubes in a wall to the object.

Even in multi-storey residential buildings, it is common today for everyone Apartment individually from only a single one going out of the strand Supply line so that the problem always remains, the pipe to the respective radiator under the screed lead and then either lead them up free-standing or into slots cut into the wall and then back into the room for connection to the radiator to lead.

For hygienic and aesthetic reasons and for reasons of laying the floor, above all with luxury apartments, you don't want any Radiators go freely through the room down into the screed guided lines (inlets vertically under the radiator) have because these lines when entering the floor Difficulty laying the carpet, special difficulties when laying parquet and even greater difficulties when laying floor tiles.

For technological reasons, it is common to use only that in residential construction Walls and then the radiator pipes (the Screed has not yet been poured), i.e. after this Plaster and after the first painting of the walls. That kind in Sequence of construction (only after plastering the walls the radiator pipes) has prevailed, especially since Feed from the living space manifold via the floor slab (under the subsequent screed) to the connections to the Radiator or preferably vice versa, from the radiator to the manifold he follows.

It is also the cleaning staff, and certainly not that Housewife to be expected to suck and wipe behind these pipes.

The aesthetic aspect is also not to be neglected, since yes in the area of pipe inlet and pipe entries into the floor this is seriously injured.

• Grobpositionierung des Heizkörpers durch den Heizungsmonteur, zur Justierung auf Heizkörperwandbefestigung und Zuführung der Rohre zu den Anschlüssen (Heizungsmonteur);
• Abnehmen des Heizkörpers (Heizungsmonteur);
• Aufschlagen der Mauer zur Einbringung der Schlitze für die Rohrleitung (Maurer);
• Anschluß der Rohre (Heizungsmonteur);
• Zumauern der Schlitze (Maurer);
• Verputzen (Putzer);
• Malen (Maler).

Because of the high costs and the high workload, the following path has rarely been followed:

• Rough positioning of the radiator by the heating technician, for adjustment to the radiator wall mounting and feeding the pipes to the connections (heating technician);
• Removing the radiator (heating fitter);
• Opening the wall to make the slots for the pipeline (bricklayer);
• Connection of the pipes (heating fitter);
• Walling up the slots (bricklayer);
• Plastering (cleaner);
• Paint (painter).

This is where the invention begins.

It is an object of the present invention to perform operations rationalize and create the opportunity (even after already completed wall), without first being technical and work-related elaborate installation housings, connection units, To use built-in boxes or the like, the client or the heating engineer until immediately before installing the radiator the exact positioning of the radiator with respect to keep the walls or the Ror relocation open and to the to refrain from extra work by a bricklayer, cleaner or painter.

This is achieved surprisingly easily according to the invention a device for the floor-free routing of radiators - drain pipes through a plate in relation to the heating pipes very large diameter to visually lock one to cavity going to the bottom of a radiator adjacent to the radiator, generally behind the radiator wall, the Heating pipes are guided in this cavity.

This allows the work of additional specialists different areas (walls, cleaning, painting) after the radiator is positioned, the Heating technician himself with a special drill from, for example 150 mm diameter drills a circular cavity that Leads heating pipes through this cavity and, for example Drill through holes in the cover closes a lid or a plate. Alternatively, the Pipes can also be laid without a radiator. The radiators will then only attached immediately before moving in. Advantage: no scratching by other artisans; Risk of theft Radiators banned before acceptance. Capital for the heating company not bound. The plate can be suitable on the surface be a surface like the wall, i.e. either be easy to paint or to be covered with wallpaper or if necessary, to be covered well with wall tiles. It can also have a wall-like structure.

It is not ignored that this is already the case, but in one much too early stage, junction box, installation boxes or connection devices were placed in the raw brickwork. Doing so Wall pieces of considerable dimensions are broken out into the then put the installation units mentioned and provide them with a cover become.

Once installed, it is in the very early stages (the Wall is not even plastered, the owner is probably standing not even fixed) the exact later position of the Radiator immovably, what the above task runs counter.

Precise adjustment of the cover according to the invention is also intended because the exact location of the lid from the one chosen Location of the housing is dependent.

Such installation boxes are known from DE 34 13 813 (installation box with lid on the plaster and additional plaster frame); AT 001 910 U1 (two interconnected plates, between which the pipes are foamed. The lid is not to use as a finished wall); DE 34 31 424 (pure box, extremely complicated, which must be built deep, enormous Effort) or DE 297 04 807 U1 (angular frame, which in one Breakout of the wall must be put. Nor will that be solved Task by AT 402 969, AT 402 344 (junction box with two-part lid on square box, with additional guide tubes are necessary), still through the AT 400 488 (housing, which can be recessed into the wall before plastering got to).

So only the heating technician is necessary. With the simple Measure cavity plus panel of course also fall considerable costs for the craftsmen of various professions away, it becomes so possible that they can also be seen in social housing (Luxury standard) (radiator inlet and outlet pipes without passing through the flooring - floor-free -) can.

It is also important that the rosettes previously required for the Pipe exits (extra storage!) Become superfluous (savings).

Since the pipes are not connected to the wall, they can still be moved when the radiator is replaced later be what connecting and replacing the radiator significantly facilitated.

With the requirements of the measure according to the invention and also when evaluating your scope, must not be neglected that in general the pipes without coupling as a Pieces are each connected to the living space manifold. There are no couplings under the lid.

The plate has on the wall side, i.e. on the remote from the living room Side, one of the introduction to the cavity and the deadlock against this serving edge or a circumferential one Apron. The plate is above this edge on both sides over and tapers outwards as a connection to the wall. The oversized hole in the wall is positioned so that the protruding Edge of the plate is flush with the bottom plate.

Preferably, the plate can have holes or weakenings for the Wear carrying the pipes. Generally the plate also feedthroughs for fasteners of the plate carry against the wall.

The plate can be made of the material of the rear insulating Radiator cladding, but also wood, cement, lining material, Plastic, plasterboard, etc. exist. The important thing is that they can take up the wall painting well. The plate can also be a Have a surface that does not stand out from the finished wall.

The plate expediently has a large diameter of at least 90 to 250 mm.

The invention also relates to a method for concealed Guiding radiator connection pipes in a wall, the Radiator location is initially positioned.

The invention is characterized in that a hole in the area behind the radiator is cut into the wall up to the base plate or up to 10 cm above the base plate using a special drill, in particular 150 mm in diameter,
the radiator tubes are passed through a plate intended to cover the hole, if necessary after drilling holes, and the plates are pressed into the hole intended for them and are secured against the rear wall of a wall that has already been completed and the inlet and outlet pipes for Connection of the radiators are ready.

A preferred further development of the method is drilling with a special drill, especially with a diameter of 90 to 250 mm.

The invention also relates to the use of a wall opening Compatible preferably round cover plate in particular 150 mm diameter.

An example embodiment of the invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which

Figure 1 shows a section through the wall and floor, the element of the invention can also be seen;

FIGS. 2 and 3 show the embodiment according to the invention once in a top view, once in a side view cut according to plane AA;

Figures 4 and 5 show a further embodiment
and

Figure 5a shows a detail.

According to Figure 1 are the supply pipes from a conduit 10 against the wall 12 above the floor (not shown) 14 laid.

The heating fitter has a cavity with a special drill 16, which begins in the area of the base plate 18 or just above, drilled. He has bent the line 10 and at 11 vertically led upwards, curved again at 13, the connection 20 led to the radiator inlet or outlet pipe 22 upwards. Of the Radiator 24 is of a conventional type, the fastenings of the Radiator 24 on the wall 12 are for the sake of clarity not shown.

In contrast to the measures described above is only the introduction of the cavity 16 was required. The cavity 16 is matched by a compatible with it and closed plate 30 matching it. The fortifications the plate 30 are not shown, the bushings the tubes 13-20 through the plate are only hinted at.

Details of plate 30 can be seen in Figures 2 and 3. Figure 3 is a section along the plane A-A in Figure 2. The plate 30 is also in association with the circular cavity 16 circular with a certain protrusion (all around) 32 executed. The protrusion is at 34 as a transition to the wall surface beveled. The plate carries (possibly offset marked) bores 36 for their attachment to the rear wall. Bushings for the radiator pipes 10 - 11 - 13 - 20 are not shown. the plate 30 can in its central area the places where the pipes are carried out most often, be weakened at about 38. In the present example four mounting holes 36 are provided. The mounting holes can also accommodate four fasteners, special fasteners (for example, for screwing against the wall embedded internal thread, made of special precious metal or the like), be trained. So far, has been from a full plate went out. According to Figure 2, the tubes can also be through a crescent-shaped section of the plate that is led through the screed is then closed.

The invention is based on two further embodiments explained.

FIG. 4 shows the further embodiment in a view, Figure 5 in section.

According to Figure 4, the cover plate in the upper part 40 is semicircular trained and then goes (down in the drawing) into a rectangular part 42. The position holes for the screws 44 are indicated (the plate is from the back shown). The screws are along the guide apron part 46 out. The apron part is chamfered at the forehead inside (will be described with reference to Figure 5). Against this Wedge pieces (see Figure 5) are pulled off the bevel. It is clearly seen how the apron 46 is chamfered at 48. The screws 50 pull the wedges 52 against the inclined ramp 48 (Figure 5a) of the apron and thus wedge the apron and thus the slab against the masonry or other material. A Adjustment is possible, both horizontally and vertically. The Slab is against the wall, and this with the simplest of means, drawn. The wedges 52 are self-centering or self-expanding.

When installing it is possible to place a foam mat in the wall recess to accommodate behind the pipes.

In general, you will be using the respective radiator or provide the radiator accessories with such a plate, what the Warehousing will greatly facilitate. To the delight of the client Masons, cleaners and painters leave the apartment significantly earlier than usual (just think of damaging the already installed flooring) usual.

The invention has only been explained on the basis of a few embodiments. Changes and changes are within the scope of the invention.

The measure according to the invention can also be used anywhere there apply where similar problems, especially in the sanitary area, occurred, for example, where you can find in simple accommodation the inlets and outlets of wash basins, toilets etc. free through the room.

If the hole is not cut to the floor, the lower edge also end 10 cm above the floor. The bottom 10 cm can be broken up by hand. This break point would from the later floor, especially the floating screed, covered.

The plate can also consist of two parts, initially a plate similar to Figure 2 is provided and one Plate is placed according to Figure 4.

In a further development of the invention, one known per se can also be used Small distributor (consisting of collector, the two preliminary and two Takes returns and releases an inflow and an outflow) behind attached or hidden on the plate. This offers the further advantage that with this method in the simplest way a two-pipe system can be installed.

According to another embodiment, the small distributor is already Part of the radiator, so can be under the plate with four Tubes are driven, then with the one located on the radiator Distributors are screwed.
