Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heated towel rail with multiple self-heating towel bars.
  • the radiators known as towel rails comprise at least one horizontal towel bar, and more generally several bars staggered in height, and in which is established a circulation of hot heat transfer fluid, including water, air or thermal oil.
  • This fluid circulates in the heating bars in closed circuit, from an outside ventilation box when it is about air, or by thermo-siphon when it is about water or oil heated by example by immersion heater, said bars being generally connected at their ends to the hollow amounts conveying the heat transfer fluid to said bars.
  • the present invention aims precisely to overcome these disadvantages.
  • the subject of the invention is a self-heating bar towel radiator, of the type comprising a plurality of horizontal towel bars fixed at their ends to two vertical uprights, characterized in that each bar is formed of a tube in which is disposed a heating system consisting of one or more electrically insulated cords enclosing an electric heating resistor or one or more heating cartridges, said heating system being connected to a control-regulating box by a network arranged in one and / or the other of the amounts.
  • the electrical circuit consists of a single cord arranged in one of the uprights and forming a loop in each bar or by several groups of cords each equipped with one or more thermal safeties (or temperature limiters).
  • the electrical circuit may also consist of heating cartridges.
  • each towel bar Since there is no risk of leakage peddler fluid, the internal heating of each towel bar is ensured “dry” by the internal resistance to the bar, the latter, which can be a simple metal tube , cylindrical or oblong section for example, can be easily attached to each end on the vertical uprights by simple mechanical assembly for example clipping, crimping, welding or screwing.
  • FIG 1 there is shown, seen from the front, a towel rail radiator comprising a number of horizontal towel bars 1 fixed between two vertical uprights 2.
  • each bar is constituted by a cylindrical tube whose ends are, as illustrated by FIGS. 2 to 4, crimped on tubular ducts constituting the uprights 2.
  • each tube end 1 is provided with an external bead 3 forming abutment for crimping the folded end 4 of the tube in line with a circular opening formed in the wall of each upright 2.
  • an electrically insulated cord 5 containing an electrical heating resistor runs along one of the uprights 2 and, at the height of each bar 1, makes a loop 6 on all the length of the bar.
  • the ends of the cord 5 are connected to a housing 7 for controlling and regulating the apparatus comprising a button 8 for adjusting the desired room temperature, a push button 9 for turning the power on and off, a timer setting button 10 .
  • the network cord 5 is of course equipped with one or more safety overheating or temperature limitation.
  • FIG. 2 represents a first mode of attachment of the two strands of the cord loop 5 which are held in place in place in each bar 1, plated by spacers 11 against the wall of the bar.
  • the cord 5 is embedded in a thermally conductive material 12, such as magnesia or silica or filled or non-charged resin that facilitates the thermal transfer, and is held at the ends of the bars 1 by elastic plugs 13 now remotely the two strands of the cord loop.
  • a thermally conductive material 12 such as magnesia or silica or filled or non-charged resin that facilitates the thermal transfer
  • the towel bars 1 ' have an oblong section whose ends are pressed onto the front face of uprights 2' of rectangular section, with the aid of plugs 15 of molded material provided with passages 16 for the heating cord 5 which is arranged in a loop in each bar 1 '.
  • Figures 8 to 10 illustrate three modes of attachment of the two strands of a loop formed by the cord 5 in each bar.
  • the bar 1 is in two clipped parts, namely a part 18 forming a box with two channels 19 for receiving the strands 5a, 5b and a part 20 forming a lid holding the strands 5a, 5 in their housing 19 .
  • each strand 5a, 5b is engaged by force and wedged in a channel 21 formed inside the bar 1 '' 'in high and low parts.
