Definitions

  • This invention concerns the sector of radiators for heating systems or towel warmers with fluid circulation and, in particular, the manufacture of such devices using modular elements.
  • radiators or towel warmers from those with heads and elements or bodies extruded in aluminium, to those composed of tubular elements in steel, for example.
  • radiators and/or towel warmers that will bring significant improvements and simplify the technique of manufacturing, assembling and composition of these devices, and, what is more, without requiring the use of complex and costly machinery and the initial heavy capital outlay at the beginning.
  • Another aim of the invention is to supply a radiator or towel warmer with a practical and easy composition, based on modular elements that may be made in metal or even in plastic, at least partially, and in such a way as to allow the formation, when necessary, of devices with 2, 3, 4 or more tubes or columns, employing each time the same components as used for the heads.
  • a heating appliance according to the invention consists of a number of radiator bodies 11, set side by side in parallel and with an end head 12.
  • Each radiator body 11 consists of two, three, four or more columns or tubes 13, parallel and co-planar, which may be in aluminium, steel or other compound, plasticised internally, etc., and may be round, elliptical or similar in cross-section.
  • Each head 12 consists of head modules 14 that can be connected together in line, directly or by means of a tube 15, as explained below.
  • the heads may be horizontal and the tubes or columns vertical, in the making of radiators for heating systems, or, on the contrary, the heads may be vertical and the tubes or columns horizontal for special installations or requirements, for example in towel warmers.
  • the head modules 14 are each composed of two elements, A and B, which are complementary, opposite each other, coupled longitudinally and fastened together to define a collector hole 16 and as many joint branches 17 as there are tubes or columns 13 for each radiator body.
  • Each branch is perforated and communicates with the collector hole 16 and may be round, elliptical or otherwise in shape, according to the form of the tubes or columns to which it is connected.
  • each head module 14 consists of two symmetrical elements A and B. each with a single branch 17 for connecting to a tube 13, in such a way as to form radiator bodies 11 that each have two tubes 13 - Figs 1 and 4.
  • each head module 14 consists of a first element A with a single branch 17 for connecting to a tube 13, and a second element B, opposite the first one and with two branches 17 for connecting to another two tubes 13, so as to form radiator bodies 11, each with three tubes - Figs 2 and 5.
  • each head module 14 consists of a first element A with a single branch 17, and another element B, opposite the first one and with three branches 17, for connecting to three tubes 13, so as to form radiator bodies 11, each with four tubes - Figs 3 and 7.
  • the basic elements for building the heads are essentially three: one, two or three branches for connecting to a similar number of tubes, thereby forming radiator bodies with a varying number of tubes or columns, as described above.
  • radiator bodies with four tubes or columns - Fig. 6; by coupling two elements, B' and B", to two and three branches, respectively, it is possible to create radiator bodies with five tubes or columns - Fig. 8; by coupling two B" elements, both with three branches, it is possible to compose radiator bodies with six tubes or columns - Fig. 9.
  • head elements with four or more branches for other combinations of radiator bodies, although heating appliances with over six tubes or columns are not often requested.
  • each head module 14 the two elements (A, B; A, B'; A, B", etc.) of each head module 14 are joined together by means of abrasion plates 18 running along the facing parts of the elements themselves, or by ring elements - not shown.
  • This washer ensures that the coupling is mechanically reliable and water-tight.
  • the facing parts of the elements of each module may be furnished with means of reciprocal tapping.
  • Each tube 13 couples with the respective branch 17 of a head module 14 and is fastened to the branch itself either by gluing, or mechanically by chamfering or burnishing, with the insertion of one or more water-tight washers 19.
  • Figs 12-14 illustrate examples of the mechanical fastening, where each branch 17 has at least one throat 17' on the external surface and each tube 13 has at least one part 13' deformed mechanically in such a way as to catch in said throat 17', and where one or two washers 19 are foreseen on one or opposite sides of the throat or throats to ensure that the point is water-tight.
  • radiator bodies 11 once they have been formed by fastening the ends of the tubes or columns 13 to the modular head elements, which are, in turn, joined together, are then assembled to make the desired heating appliance.
  • the assembly is carried out by fixing the head modules 14 directly together in line, by means of nippling and with the insertion of a washer.
  • This connection can be obtained with an internal nippling, using nipples 20 screwed into the collector hole 16 of the adjacent head modules, which have been previously threaded - Fig. 10.
  • this connection can be achieved with an external nippling and the use of nipples 21 screwed onto parts of the adjacent head modules which are threaded externally - Fig. 11.
  • each head may be closed by a cap 22, with relative grommet 22'.
  • radiator bodies 11 may be assembled by using tubes 15, which act as collectors at the level of the heads.
  • Each tube-collector 15 is equipped with radial holes 15' - Fig. 16 - and the head modules 14 of the radiator bodies 11 with two, three or more tubes or columns 13 are threaded onto said tube 15 and each positioned over a hole 15', with a washer 23 placed in-between to make it water-tight as well as fastening the respective module to the tube.
  • part of the washer 23 has a rounded edge 24 which is designed to fit a housing inside the head module, and a stem 25 designed to enter the hole 15' of the tube, where it is held fast. Therefore, by varying the distance between the holes 15' of the tube 15, it is possible to distance the radiator bodies 11, creating towel warmer structures with various shapes, one example being shown in Fig. 15.
  • the elements A, B, B' and B" which make up the head modules may be produced in aluminium, steel or plastic. It is even possible for each one to be formed by an internal shell in metal and an external finishing shell C in plastic, in the shape and colour preferred - Figs 2b, 2c.
  • the elements that make up the head modules 14 may be soldered, for greater stability, where the assembled whole uses nippling, especially if internal.
