Abstract

The radiator section (1), equipped with couplings (10) for tubes linked to another section above it, has connectors (16, 18) for joining it to another radiator section located end to end with it and contains at least two parallel heating fluid distribution channels (2, 4). The channels are linked by compensating chambers (5) at the ends of the section which can be fitted with separators to give a more complex fluid trajectory, while grooves (14) in the section ends are designed to receive seals between adjacent sections.

Les premiers radiateurs domestiques utilisant des éléments standardisés assemblés ont été les radiateurs en fonte.

Des tétons creux 10 en forme de couronne sont alignés parallèlement sur une des faces de l'élément 1, la cavité interne de chacune de ces couronnes étant en communication directe avec le segment de rampe 2, 4 correspondant.Hollow nipples 10 in the shape of a crown are aligned in parallel on one of the faces of element 1, the internal cavity of each of these crowns being in direct communication with the ramp segment 2, 4 corresponding.

Les tétons creux 10 forment partie d'un dispositif simple de raccordement avec des éléments dissipateurs de chaleur 12 tels que les tubes représentés à la Fig. 2.The hollow nipples 10 form part of a simple connection device with elements heat sinks 12 such as the tubes shown in Fig. 2.

Le diamètre extérieur de ces tétons 10 correspond en effet sensiblement au diamètre intérieur des tubes 12 ce qui permet une jonction par emboítement et soudure ou collage.The outside diameter of these nipples 10 corresponds indeed substantially the inside diameter of the tubes 12 ce which allows a junction by nesting and welding or collage.

Lors de l'assemblage d'un radiateur, un joint d'étanchéité (non représenté) est disposé sur le pourtour de la cavité 5 de la face 6, par exemple dans une rainure 14 telle que représentée à la Fig. 1. En appliquant l'une contre l'autre les deux faces de bout 6, 8 complémentaires de deux éléments 1 adjacents, on forme une chambre hermétique [5,5] dite "chambre de compensation" dont le volume correspond à deux fois celui des cavités 5; cette chambre [5,5] met en communication les uns avec les autres les segments de rampes 2, 4 des éléments de rampe 1 aboutés.When assembling a radiator, a gasket sealing (not shown) is arranged on the periphery of the cavity 5 of the face 6, for example in a groove 14 as shown in FIG. 1. By applying one against the other the two end faces 6, 8 complementary of two adjacent elements 1, we form a chamber hermetic [5,5] called "clearing house" whose volume corresponds to twice that of the cavities 5; this room [5,5] connects with each other the ramp segments 2, 4 of the ramp elements 1 butted together.

Les parois des cavités 5 forment une structure en caisson qui relie rigidement entre eux les deux segments de rampes 2, 4. The walls of the cavities 5 form a structure in box which rigidly connects the two segments of ramps 2, 4.

Une nervure (non visible sur la Fig. 1), de forme adaptée à celle de la rainure 14 fait saillie par rapport à la face de bout 8 de façon à pouvoir s'encastrer dans la rainure 14 lorsque deux éléments de rampe 1 sont aboutés, ce qui empêche tout mouvement transversal relatif de ces éléments 1 aboutés.A rib (not visible in Fig. 1), of shape adapted to that of the groove 14 protrudes from to the end face 8 so as to be able to fit into the groove 14 when two ramp elements 1 are butted together, which prevents any relative transverse movement of these elements 1 butted.

Chaque face de bout 6, 8 est munie de moyens de raccordement à un élément adjacent. Comme on le voit à la Fig. 1, deux percements longitudinaux 16, 18 permettent l'insertion d'éléments filetés (vis ou boulons) solidarisant deux éléments de rampes 1 adjacents.Each end face 6, 8 is provided with means for connection to an adjacent element. As seen in the Fig. 1, two longitudinal holes 16, 18 allow the insertion of threaded elements (screws or bolts) securing two adjacent ramp elements 1.

Un de ces percements 16 est ménagé sur une bride 20 faisant saillie sur la face latérale portant les tétons 10. L'autre percement 18 débouche directement dans la face de bout. Avantageusement, les percements d'une des deux faces de bout (6 ou 8) sont filetés.One of these openings 16 is formed on a flange 20 projecting from the side face carrying the nipples 10. The other hole 18 opens directly into the face standing. Advantageously, the openings of one of the two end faces (6 or 8) are threaded.

Comme on peut le constater en se référant aux Figs. 2 et 4, la tête des éléments filetés reste parfaitement accessible même lorsque le radiateur est complètement monté.As can be seen by referring to Figs. 2 and 4, the head of the threaded elements remains perfectly accessible even when the radiator is completely assembled.

L'espacement prévu entre deux segments de rampes 2, 4 permet l'insertion d'un outil de forme appropriée (clé à pans hexagonaux) pour serrer ou desserrer les éléments filetés.The spacing between two ramp segments 2, 4 allows the insertion of an appropriately shaped tool (wrench hexagon) to tighten or loosen the elements threaded.

Il est donc possible, le cas échéant, de démonter par le milieu un radiateur en place pour enlever ou insérer un nouvel élément 1, pratique impossible avec les radiateurs connus de l'état de la technique.It is therefore possible, if necessary, to disassemble through the middle a radiator in place to remove or insert a new element 1, practical not possible with radiators known from the state of the art.

La présence d'une chambre de compensation [5,5] dans les éléments de têtes de radiateurs de l'invention permet d'adopter une répartition de flux de fluide caloporteur en séries parallèles.The presence of a clearing house [5,5] in the radiator head elements of the invention allows to adopt a fluid flow distribution coolant in parallel series.

Le fluide caloporteur se distribue donc entre les différentes nappes et rampes en boucles de Tickelmann. La configuration des têtes entraíne par elle-même des pertes de charges très réduites puisque les étranglements de section sont réduits à un minimum. En conséquence, le radiateur adopte spontanément un régime de dissipation thermique aussi près de l'optimum que possible, sans intervention extérieure.The heat transfer fluid is therefore distributed between the different tablecloths and ramps in Tickelmann loops. The configuration of the heads causes losses by itself very reduced loads since the throttles of section are reduced to a minimum. Consequently, the radiator spontaneously adopts a dissipation regime as close to the optimum as possible, without outside intervention.

En fonction de la puissance à dissiper, les éléments 1 peuvent comprendre un nombre approprié de segments de rampes parallèles. Aux Figs. 3 et 4 sont représentés des éléments à 3 segments de rampe 2, 3, 4 et un radiateur réalisé à partir de tels éléments 1.Depending on the power to be dissipated, the items 1 may include an appropriate number of parallel ramp segments. In Figs. 3 and 4 are shown elements with 3 ramp segments 2, 3, 4 and a radiator made from such elements 1.

La parfaite étanchéité obtenue entre les éléments 1 permet en outre de s'affranchir d'une forme de section particulière (telle que la forme ronde, obligatoire lorsque l'on a recours à des nipples filetés). En conséquence, on peut choisir des sections mieux adaptées à des contraintes d'écoulement ou aux sollicitations mécaniques (section ovale, elliptique etc.).The perfect seal obtained between the elements 1 also makes it possible to overcome a section shape particular (such as the round shape, mandatory when threaded nipples are used). Consequently, we can choose sections better suited to constraints flow or mechanical stress (section oval, elliptical etc.).

Comme le montre la Fig. 4, on peut étendre à un nombre de rampes quelconque le principe de cet élément de rampe 1, le flux fluide caloporteur se répartissant toujours de façon équilibrée entre les différentes nappes 22 parallèles. On constatera également que même en cas d'apparition d'un défaut pour une raison externe (accumulation de débris, particules provenant de l'installation) le radiateur peut continuer à fonctionner, du fait du rééquilibrage automatique des flux dans la structure; en outre, la structure des éléments 1 limite et l'emboítement des cavités annule ou empêche tout déplacement relatif des éléments 1, cause reconnue de défauts d'étanchéité ayant pour origine la dilatation différentielle des tubes dissipateurs 12, surtout lorsque l'on utilise des grandes longueurs de tubes.As shown in Fig. 4, we can extend to a any number of ramps the principle of this element of ramp 1, the heat transfer fluid flow always distributing balanced between the different layers 22 parallel. We will also note that even in case appearance of a fault for an external reason (accumulation of debris, particles from installation) the radiator can continue to operate, due to the automatic rebalancing of flows in the structure; furthermore, the structure of elements 1 limits and the interlocking of the cavities cancels or prevents any displacement relative of elements 1, recognized cause of faults sealing due to differential expansion heatsink tubes 12, especially when using long lengths of tubing.

La présence des cavités 5 au bout des éléments 1 permet en outre plusieurs variantes avantageuses: on a ainsi conçu des éléments de raccords angulaires dont les faces de bout s'emboítent exactement sur les faces de bout de deux éléments 1, permettant la réalisation de rampes en zig-zag dont les nappes 22 s'étendant suivant des plans sécants. On a ainsi la possibilité, toujours à l'aide d'éléments standardisés, de produire un radiateur s'étendant de façon continue le long des murs d'une pièce, suivant des cloisons etc...The presence of the cavities 5 at the end of the elements 1 also allows several advantageous variants: designed elements of angular connections whose faces of end fit exactly on the end faces of two elements 1, allowing the realization of zig-zag ramps whose sheets 22 extending along intersecting planes. We thus has the possibility, always with the help of elements standardized, to produce a radiator extending so continues along the walls of a room, following partitions etc ...

Un autre avantage réside dans l'accessibilité des cavités 5 formant les chambres de compensation: l'on peut, à volonté, interrompre le pontage qui met les segments de rampes 2, 4 en parallèle dans un élément ou une série d'éléments à l'aide d'une languette de cloisonnement 24 dont les dimensions correspondent à la section transversale de la chambre de compensation 5, 5. Le cas échéant, cette languette 24 peut être solidaire du joint d'étanchéité.Another advantage lies in the accessibility of cavities 5 forming the compensation chambers: it is possible, at will, interrupt the bypass which puts the segments of ramps 2, 4 in parallel in an element or a series elements using a partition tab 24 of which the dimensions correspond to the cross section of clearing house 5, 5. If necessary, this tongue 24 may be integral with the seal.

L'insertion de languettes 24 judicieusement disposés dans les rampes 2, 4 permet de faire parcourir au fluide caloporteur des circuits complexes optimisant les flux de chaleur par l'ajustement des pertes de charges à chaque noeud de distribution. Il permet aussi de faire jouer à certains segments de rampe d'un même élément 1 des rôles distincts. Ainsi, à la Fig. 5, une première série de segments de rampe 2 assure le rôle de rampe d'entrée du fluide caloporteur, une deuxième série assurant le rôle de rampe de sortie.Inserting tabs 24 wisely arranged in the ramps 2, 4 allows the heat transfer fluid for complex circuits optimizing heat flow by adjusting pressure drops to each distribution node. It also allows you to play to certain ramp segments of the same element 1 of the roles separate. Thus, in FIG. 5, a first series of ramp segments 2 acts as an entry ramp for the heat transfer fluid, a second series ensuring the role of exit ramp.

Le radiateur montré à la Fig. 5 comprend des tubes dissipateurs coudés en épingle à cheveux, ce qui rend possible certains effets décoratifs particuliers. Par ailleurs, le radiateur de la Fig. 5 peut être supporté uniquement par sa rampe, ce qui résout les problèmes d'allongement des tubes dissipateurs, sous l'effet de la dilatation thermique.The radiator shown in Fig. 5 includes bent hairpin heatsink tubes, making possible some particular decorative effects. Through elsewhere, the radiator of FIG. 5 can be supported only by its ramp, which solves the problems elongation of the dissipating tubes, under the effect of thermal expansion.

Le radiateur de la Fig. 5, aussi bien que ceux montrés aux Figs. 2 et 4, peut être disposé au choix avec les éléments 1 s'étendant verticalement ou horizontalement sans altérer notablement ses performances. On peut ainsi, en tenant compte des sollicitations mécaniques impliquées, utiliser les radiateurs de l'invention comme sèche-linge ou porte-essuies chauffants dans une salle de bain.The radiator of FIG. 5, as well as those shown in Figs. 2 and 4, can be arranged as desired with the elements 1 extending vertically or horizontally without significantly affecting its performance. We can thus, taking into account the mechanical stresses involved, use the radiators of the invention as a dryer or heated towel racks in a bathroom.

Les radiateurs réalisés avec les éléments 1 suivant l'invention ont l'avantage de présenter une très grande surface en contact avec l'air ambiant. Ils peuvent donc être très compacts et/ou utiliser un fluide caloporteur à plus basse température que des radiateurs classiques.Radiators made with elements 1 according to the invention have the advantage of having a very large area in contact with ambient air. They can therefore be very compact and / or use a heat transfer fluid at lower temperature than conventional radiators.

Bien que les éléments dissipateurs soient représentés ici sous la forme de tubes ronds, il va de soi que l'on peut les munir d'ailettes favorisant la dissipation de chaleur ou leur donner toute forme souhaitée.Although the dissipative elements are represented here in the form of round tubes, it goes without saying that we can provide them with fins promoting dissipation heat or give them any shape you want.

Les éléments de rampes de radiateurs de l'invention rendent possible des raccordements extrêmement compacts: les extrémités des rampes constituées de ces éléments peuvent être interconnectées par des pièces d'extrémité en cuvette 26 dont la largeur n'excède pas celle des faces de bout 6, 8. Ces pièces d'extrémité 26 peuvent déjà comprendre des entrées taraudées débouchant au choix sur l'arrière, latéralement ou vers le bas d'un radiateur monté, rendant inutile l'usage de pièces de raccordement apparentes et minimisant la longueur de tuyauterie visible.The radiator rail elements of the invention make connections extremely possible compact: the ends of the ramps made up of these elements can be interconnected by pieces end in bowl 26 whose width does not exceed that end faces 6, 8. These end pieces 26 can already include threaded entries leading to a choice on the back, sideways or downwards of a radiator mounted, eliminating the need for connecting parts visible and minimizing the length of visible piping.

Il est également possible de monter des sièges de vannes (telles que les vannes thermostatiques) à l'intérieur même de ces pièces d'extrémité en cuvette 26, faisant disparaítre tous les éléments en saillie du radiateur (à l'exclusion de la tête de la vanne elle-même).It is also possible to mount seats valves (such as thermostatic valves) inside even of these bowl end pieces 26, making disappear all the elements projecting from the radiator (at excluding the valve head itself).

Par une disposition judicieuse des languettes de cloisonnement 24 et des pièces d'extrémité, la pose des tuyauteries peut également être simplifiée, l'arrivée et la sortie de fluide caloporteur pouvant être assurées à partir de deux points adjacents.By a judicious arrangement of the tabs of partitioning 24 and end pieces, the installation of piping can also be simplified, the arrival and the heat transfer fluid outlet which can be provided from from two adjacent points.
