Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a radiator according to the preamble of claim 1. It thus relates to a radiator, in particular a design radiator having a device for attachment to a mounting surface, wherein the fastening device comprises a plurality, preferably four, attachable to the mounting surface retaining elements, which are each mounted pivotably in at least one plane on the radiator.
  • the attachment surface may preferably be formed by a wall, but also by a bottom or other carriers.
  • radiators There are already numerous devices for mounting radiators on walls known. In many cases holding elements are used, which engage in recesses or cavities of the radiator. In tubular heaters engage such holding elements from the back into the spaces between the heating tubes, whereby they are visible from the front, which is particularly disadvantageous in design radiators.
  • a radiator with such a fastening device is from the EP 1 039 240 A2 known.
  • the fastening device comprises fastenable on the radiator support and fastened to a wall support holder, which are linearly displaced from each other to achieve different wall spacings.
  • the carriers are taken during assembly of the radiator between two tubes of the radiator, wherein a cross tube of the radiator is suspended in a trough of the carrier and the adjacent cross tube is brought against a receiving seat opposite the trough.
  • the carriers engage in the spaces between the heating tubes, that the components of the fastening device located on the radiator are visible from the front of the radiator, which is disturbing, especially in design radiators.
  • a hinge is integrated into the carrier as a separate component, which ensures a pivoting in one plane. This means a considerable effort in the production of the fastening device and correspondingly higher production costs.
  • radiator holding elements such as hooks, brackets or straps, which cooperate with appropriately trained and fastened to the wall fasteners.
  • These holding elements are barely visible from the front of the radiator or not at all. They are firmly and immovably fixed to the radiator, usually welded. Therefore, they must be adapted from the outset to the surface shape of the mounting surface to which the radiator is to be attached. This results in a large number of different variants, which leads to considerable cost increases.
  • the retaining elements must be adapted not only to the respective mounting surface, but in particular to the shape of the radiator itself.
  • the retaining elements must be adapted not only to the respective mounting surface, but in particular to the shape of the radiator itself.
  • tubular heaters with curved heating tubes depending on the radius and angle of the bend different orientations of the holding elements required to the radiator on flat mounting surfaces to be able to attach.
  • This requires an additional effort and additional costs in the production of radiators, since the retaining elements must always be adapted to the geometry of the bend.
  • a radiator according to the preamble of claim 1 is known, which is mounted on two pivotable holding elements, which serve here simultaneously as a connection device for the Schumacherstrom.
  • the holding elements each have a nozzle which is attached to the radiator.
  • the fastening device comprises at least one angle compensating piece for mounting and for mounting.
  • This angle compensating piece is first pivotally attached thereto prior to its final connection to the radiator so that it can be pivoted in the desired direction and properly aligned. Only then the angle compensation piece is finally firmly connected to the radiator and the Agenkiana thereby repealed.
  • This solid connection is still during the production of the radiator and is preferably cohesively, for example, carried out by soldering.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a structurally simple and inexpensive to produce radiator of the type mentioned above, which allows easy installation and which is easy and quick to install on differently shaped mounting surfaces and also a particularly simple and efficient production of different variants allows differently bent radiators, the fastening device is not visible from the front of the radiator.
  • the heating element for each holding element in each case has a connecting piece on which or in which the holding element is pivotally mounted and latching held either releasably or permanently.
  • the holding elements can be fastened either releasably or permanently on the radiator.
  • the locking connection insoluble or provide additional security elements.
  • the solution according to the invention also means a significant simplification of the installation of the radiator and associated cost savings.
  • a particularly great flexibility in the final assembly of the radiator is achieved, which is retained until its attachment to the mounting surface. Only in the final assembly of the radiator, the pivotally mounted holding elements are pivoted into the respectively required for this fastening position.
  • a significant advantage lies in the fact that a high flexibility on the one hand with respect to the mountability of the radiator to different geometries of the mounting surface and on the other hand with respect to an optionally desired bending of the radiator or the heating pipes of the radiator is achieved.
  • the manufacturing cost of the radiator are particularly low even with a variety of different bends of the radiator or the appropriate mounting surfaces.
  • Another significant advantage is that is created by the arrangement of a respective nozzle for each holding element from the front of the radiator not visible type of attachment.
  • the nozzle allows a particularly simple storage of the retaining element for immediate warranty of the pivoting movement, which reduces the effort and cost in the manufacture of the radiator or its fastening device.
  • a particularly high flexibility can be achieved in that the holding elements are each pivotable in two mutually perpendicular planes, wherein the pivoting movements are superimposed on each other. These two levels are advantageously perpendicular to the main plane of the radiator.
  • the advantages of the invention can also be achieved even with a pivoting of the holding elements in only a single plane, which is preferably perpendicular to the mounting surface and parallel to the bottom surface. In curved radiators, it is preferably at the same time the plane in which the bend of the radiator or the heating pipes runs.
  • the holding elements each comprise a latching region on which at least one outwardly projecting latching element is arranged, through which at least one provided on the radiator Spring element is engaged behind.
  • the spring element can advantageously be formed by a spring ring. Also, a plurality of spring elements, such as resiliently mounted balls may be provided.
  • each locking portion is formed by a projection and each locking element by a collar.
  • the holding elements each have at least one spring element, which can be engaged behind by at least one latching element projecting on the heating element.
  • the inside hollow neck in their free end face each have an opening through which with or without radial play the locking element or the collar and with radial play of the locking portion or the projection of a holding element in the Stub is insertable, wherein in or behind the opening at least one elastically outwardly depressible spring element, preferably a slotted spring ring, is provided, through which the latching element or the collar of a holding element latching in the interior of the nozzle is firmly held.
  • at least one elastically outwardly depressible spring element preferably a slotted spring ring
  • the nozzles are attached to the radiator, in particular to the manifolds of the radiator, preferably welded.
  • the nozzles are arranged on the manifolds at an angle preferably of 90 ° to the ends of the heating pipe opening to the manifolds.
  • radiators with curved heating tubes when the heating tubes are bent at least in a central region, but preferably completely, in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the manifold tubes level in which the holding elements are pivotally mounted in the nozzle.
  • each retaining element is releasably secured to a respective receiving part, which is firmly attached to the mounting surface, in particular on a wall. It is proposed to first attach the receiving parts to the wall and then attach the holding elements to the receiving parts.
  • the receiving parts are cylindrical in shape with a recess into which the holding elements are insertable with a piston-shaped region, wherein means for locking the holding elements, in particular locking screws, are provided in the region of the recess.
  • the radiator 1 shown in the figures is a known tubular heater with two manifolds 2, between which a plurality of heating pipes 3 are arranged through which the heating fluid in the desired manner between the distribution pipes 2 can flow.
  • a manifold 2 and a portion of the heating pipes 3 shown is only a manifold 2 and a portion of the heating pipes 3 shown.
  • a fastening device 4 which comprises a total of four retaining elements 5.
  • the holding elements 5 each comprise a piston-shaped or fully cylindrical base body 6, which has a coaxially projecting projection 7 at its end facing the heating element 1, which forms the latching region.
  • the end face is rounded spherical segment.
  • the base body 6 has a conical end region with a circumferential phase 9 in order to facilitate insertion into a hollow cylindrical receiving part 10.
  • the radiator 1 has on its back four nozzles 11, which are welded to the manifolds 2.
  • the stubs 11 have inside each a cavity 12, in which the collar 8 can be inserted through the projection 7 of a holding element 5 through an end opening 13.
  • a slotted spring ring 14 as elastically outwardly depressible spring element whose inner diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the collar 8 in the idle state.
  • each holding element 5 is pivotally mounted in a socket 11.
  • the pivoting is given in each case in two mutually perpendicular planes 15 and 16, which in turn are both perpendicular to the main plane of the radiator 1.
  • the pivoting movements are freely superimposed on each other, so that a particularly variable connection possibility of the radiator 1 is given at any intermediate positions of the holding elements 5.
  • the nozzles 11 are arranged here on the distributor pipes 2 at an angle of 90 ° to the ends of the heating pipes 3 opening onto the distributor pipes 2. Therefore, a bending of the heating tubes 3 in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the distributor tubes 2 extending plane can be compensated by the pivoting of the holding elements 5 in the plane parallel thereto 16.
  • the heating tubes 3 can be bent by an arbitrary angle up to a maximum of twice the angle by which the holding element 5 can be pivoted from its non-deflected central position to the side.
  • the heating pipes 3 are bent by an angle of approximately 30 ° in de drawing plane.
  • the holding elements 5 are also pivoted in the plane of the drawing at an angle of about 15 ° from its central position to the outside, so that the free end faces 17 of the holding elements 5 are in a common plane. In this way, a particularly efficient and cost-effective production of different types of radiator, each with differently bent heating tubes 3 can be achieved.
  • each retaining element 5 in each case a hollow cylindrical receiving part 10 can be inserted and can be fixed therein by means of a locking screw 18.
  • the receiving parts 10 are previously in turn mounted on the wall to which the radiator 1 is to be attached. For this purpose, they have in their voltage applied to the wall bottom surface suitable openings, for example, a slot 19 for receiving fastening screws.
