Definitions

  • the present invention relates to electric heaters and more especially the towel radiators.
  • the glass used as construction material for the radiator walls has the advantage its pleasant presentation and its thermal qualities including a sufficiently low effusiveness so that hot touching does not cause burning sensations too strong even at the limits than usual standards impose, and its high emissivity.
  • heaters with accessible walls are made of glass.
  • devices intended for space heating we find for example that described in patent WO9627271 composed of several transparent glazing spaced to promote convection and one of which at less has a transparent heating film.
  • radiators as described for example in the patent DE 4136134 composed of a glass plate on the front, a layer heater, a reflective bottom plate, and a layer for insulation of the any opposite to the support, generally a wall against which the radiator is fixed.
  • heated mirrors that can be used in a bathroom such as that described in patent FR 2,666,475 and comprising a layer reflective.
  • US patent 4052588 describes a heating panel comprising two glass panels between which a heating element is arranged specially cut from metal foil. Glass panels slightly spaced not to tighten the heating element are mounted on a support comprising two lateral uprights, said uprights being able to be connected by bars that can be used to support laundry to be dried.
  • the object of the invention below is a towel dryer with glass walls of economical construction as it allows the use of manufactured elements in large quantities for other applications without requiring heavy specific investments
  • an electric towel dry radiator intended to be hung on a support wall, comprising a panel heater composed of at least one front panel made of tempered glass the back of which is stuck a heating element in multilayer plate incorporating a resistive circuit, the external faces of this plate being self-adhesive cold, and a second tempered glass panel glued to the back.
  • This use of a self-adhesive cold heating element allows very simple manufacturing of the heating panel, requiring no cooking with heavy means such as ovens or ovens.
  • the panel forms a rigid sub-assembly that can be easily manipulated during assembly of the radiator.
  • the multilayer plate heating element preferably comprises a circuit aluminum heater adhering to a first polyethylene terephthalate film (PET), a second PET film being hot bonded using a film polyethylene intermediate on the heating circuit and its first film support, the external faces of the PET films being made cold adhesive by an acrylic film.
  • PET polyethylene terephthalate film
  • the self-adhesive heating element with its PET films and its circuit aluminum has the advantage of being of common manufacture and use, by example for heating ceilings or walls of rooms. Therefore it can be produced economically without new investment, the temperature of operation of the towel radiator being limited to a value lower than softening acrylic.
  • the different layers of plastic and glass are different and more or less dense colors. This allows nuances and combinations that are easy to diversify on devices in the same range for give the desired appearance on the front panel.
  • At least one of the different layers or glass panels includes drawings or traces visible on the front panel and / or is rendered opaque.
  • the glass front panel can be engraved, or receive a serigraphy and / or receive an opaque enamel on the back side.
  • the accessible front face of the first glass panel is coated with a layer having an anti-fouling function.
  • the front panel receives a thin film of epoxy resin, which is less sensitive to fingerprints than glass while remaining translucent.
  • the heating panel is supported by a frame spaced from the wall by a hanging support and has two substantially vertical uprights on which are fixed one or more towel holders.
  • the heating panel is separated from the wall by a few centimeters by a support and power adjusted so that the wall does not receive too much radiation which avoids having to isolate the back of the panel.
  • the two vertical uprights have a groove which receives and protects the edge of the heating panel.
  • the panel is thus immobilized both from front to back and laterally.
  • the fixing of the panel is completed by two pawns which cross partially the vertical uprights perpendicular to the groove and engage in two cells formed in the edges of the heating panel.
  • the frame has two horizontal rules including U-shaped sections receive the upper and lower edges of the heating panel and whose ends are embedded in the uprights.
  • the lower horizontal rule is perforated in the lower part of holes distributed along its length. This arrangement allows the water which could, as a result of projections, run along the panel and seep between the heating panel and the lower rule.
  • the two uprights are connected by two metal bars to the back of the heating panel on which the wall mount hangs.
  • the towel holder has at least one horizontal bar parallel to the plane of the heating panel and whose ends meet the vertical uprights.
  • the towel dryer has a thermostatic regulation including the control is located in the upper part of the front of the device.
  • a thermostatic regulation including the control is located in the upper part of the front of the device.
  • the towel dryer radiator consists a rectangular heating panel 1, a frame 2 having two uprights 3 and 4 substantially vertical, two rules one upper 5 and one lower 6 and two bars 7 and 8 (fig. 3, 4) connecting the two uprights.
  • Pawns 9 (fig. 6, 7) complete the fixing of panel 1 in frame 2.
  • a wall support 11 (fig. 2) fixed to the wall supports the frame 2.
  • Bars 12 parallel to the panel 1 advantageously offset from each other serve as a support towels.
  • the bars 12 have their ends curved up to the uprights 3, 4 on which they are fixed.
  • the heating panel 1 advantageously consists of several layers which are from front to back: a tempered glass with a thickness of about 4 to 6 millimeters, a heating element in the form of a complex sheet, and a tempered glass 4 to 6 millimeters thick, the heating element successively comprising a sheet of acrylic adhesive 0.05 to 0.2 millimeters thick, a PET film thickness 0.05 to 0.1 millimeters, an electric heating circuit in aluminum thickness 0.009 0.012 millimeters adhering to this film, a sheet of adhesive PE of thickness 0.05 to 0.2 millimeters, a second film of PET of thickness 0.05 to 0.1 millimeters, a sheet of acrylic adhesive of thickness 0.05 to 0.2 millimeters.
  • the whole is made integral by adhesion of the glass on the films acrylic from cold assembly.
  • the self-adhesive heating element having PET films and a hot-assembled aluminum circuit is a supply standard, for example the reference Tl1205512S2AA from the company Techniba.
  • the first layers of glass and films have shades, pronounced or not to combine in order to obtain a variety of color effects on the facade allowing you to easily differentiate between different devices in the range and hide the heating circuit. Drawings can also be seen by transparency of the first glass which can also be engraved.
  • the accessible front face made of glass is treated with a coating. end of an epoxy resin so as to make it less sensitive to dirt and particularly fingerprints. This is particularly useful if the face a sanded appearance to remove shine, this finish being very sensitive to soiling.
  • the heating panel 1 is held laterally in grooves of the uprights 3 and 4 of frame 2. These grooves are visible in the partial views in cut 5 to 7. Pawns 9 partially cross the uprights 3 and 4 to engage in a corresponding cell 15 of the panel 1 as can be see in Figure 6, which immobilizes the panel 1 vertically. A solution equivalent is indicated in figure 7 where the pawn 9 is replaced by a rise 9 from the back of the throat.
  • Panel 1 is protected on its edge at the top by a ruler metal 5 whose U-shaped section allows its fitting on the edge of the panel.
  • the same protection is provided at the bottom of panel 1 by a rule 6.
  • the rules 5 and 6 are embedded in the amounts 3 and 4 by their ends as the shows figure 5 where the parts are represented in the position they occupy just before embedding.
  • the closing of the frame 2 constituted by the amounts 3, 4 and the rules 5, 6 is made final by metal bars 7, 8 connecting the two uprights 3, 4. These bars 7, 8 are also used to hang the towel dryer on the wall mount 11.
  • a regulation box 13 placed at the top and at the rear of the device allows adjust the device by acting on controls 14 passing through panel 1.
  • the support 11 of the towel dryer moves it away from its support wall by a few centimeters and the power density of the heating panel is adjusted so that the radiation received by the support wall is not excessive.
