Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Teilbaueinheit für eine Kompaktheizungsanlage gemäß den im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen.The invention relates to a sub-assembly for a compact heating system according to the features specified in the preamble of claim 1.

Teilbaueinheiten der vorgenannten Art zählen bei Kompaktheizungsanlagen zum Stand der Technik ( EP 1 528 330 B1 und EP-A-1 582 824 ). Solche Baueinheiten oder Teile davon, so genannte Teilbaueinheiten werden bei Kompaktheizungsanlagen eingesetzt, um die wasserführenden Bauteile, Armaturen, Pumpen, Ventile, Sensoren und dergleichen Platz sparend anordnen und als Ganzes handhaben zu können, d.h. insbesondere auf die sonst übliche Einzelverrohrung verzichten zu können. Solche Kompaktheizungsanlagen, die sowohl zur Raumheizung, also zur Erwärmung des in den Raumheizkörpern fließenden Wärmeträgermediums als auch zur Erzeugung warmen Brauchwassers dienen, weisen typischerweise eine Baueinheit auf, welche eine Vielzahl der vorgenannten Komponenten umfasst. Da die komplette Verrohrung sämtlicher wasserführenden Leitungen innerhalb der Kompaktheizungsanlage, sowie die Aufnahme von Pumpe, Ventilen, Armaturen und sonstigen Komponenten in einem einzigen Spritzgussteil zu hochkomplexen und damit aufwendigen Werkzeugen führt, werden so genannten Teilbaueinheiten gebildet, welche typischerweise aus einem jedoch weniger komplexen Spritzgussbauteil gebildet sind, die zum Beispiel rückseitig durch einen Plattenwärmetauscher verbunden dann ebenso eine gemeinsam handhabbare und montierbare Baueinheit bilden.Teilbaueinheiten of the aforementioned type are in compact heating systems to the prior art ( EP 1 528 330 B1 and EP-A-1 582 824 ). Such units or parts thereof, so-called sub-assemblies are used in compact heating systems to arrange the water-bearing components, fittings, pumps, valves, sensors and the like to save space and handle as a whole, ie to be able to do without the usual individual piping. Such compact heating systems, which serve both for space heating, ie for heating the heat transfer medium flowing in the space heaters and for generating hot process water, typically have a structural unit which comprises a plurality of the aforementioned components. Since the complete piping of all water-carrying lines within the compact heating system, as well as the inclusion of pump, valves, fittings and other components in a single injection molded part leads to highly complex and therefore expensive tools, so-called sub-assemblies are formed, which typically formed from a but less complex injection molded component are, for example, the back connected by a plate heat exchanger then form a jointly manageable and mountable assembly.

Weil die Raumheizkörper typischerweise thermostatgeregelt sind, machen sich Temperaturschwankungen im Heizkreis für die Raumheizung nach außen hin kaum bemerkbar. Bei der Brauchwassererwärmung hingegen ist es nicht nur erforderlich festzustellen, ob das Brauchwasser fließt oder nicht, sondern es ist darüber hinaus zweckmäßig auch die Menge zur erfassen, um die über den Plattenwärmetauscher zugeführte Menge des Wärmeträgermediums entsprechend steuern zu können. Die Durchflussmengenmessung in solchen Heizungsanlagen ist jedoch in mehrerlei Hinsicht problematisch. Zum einen wird für eine exakte Messung eine vergleichsweise lange und nach Möglichkeit gerade Messstrecke gefordert, zum anderen muss das Messprinzip so ausgestaltet sein, dass die Vorrichtung über eine Vielzahl von Jahren ohne Fehler arbeitet, was bei mechanischen Messanordnungen mit beweglichen Teilen problematisch sein kann.Because the space heaters are typically thermostat controlled, make temperature fluctuations in the heating circuit for space heating to the outside barely noticeable. In the domestic water heating, however, it is not only necessary to determine whether the hot water is flowing or not, but it is also appropriate to detect the amount to control the amount of heat transfer medium supplied via the plate heat exchanger can accordingly. The flow rate measurement in such heating systems, however, is problematic in several respects. On the one hand, a comparatively long and, if possible, straight measuring section is required for an exact measurement; on the other hand, the measuring principle must be designed such that the device operates without errors over a large number of years, which can be problematical in the case of mechanical measuring arrangements with moving parts.

Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gattungsgemäße Teilbaueinheit zu schaffen, die im Hinblick auf die Brauchwassererwärmung bessere Möglichkeiten der Messung und Steuerung bietet.Against this background, the invention has for its object to provide a generic sub-assembly that offers better ways of measuring and control in terms of hot water heating.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung und der Zeichnung angegeben.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features stated in the characterizing part of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims, the following description and the drawing.

Die Teilbaueinheit gemäß der Erfindung, die für eine Kompaktheizungsanlage mit zwei Heizkreisen vorgesehen ist und die zwei in Einbaulage rückseitige Anschlüsse zum Anschluss an ein vertikales Anschlusspaar eines Plattenwärmetauschers aufweist sowie eine Kreiselpumpe umfasst, ist erfindungsgemäß so ausgebildet, dass zwei nebeneinander und in Einbaulage im Wesentlichen vertikal angeordnete Leitungsabschnitte vorgesehen sind, die durch ein die Strömung um etwa 180° umlenkendes Bauteil leitungsverbunden sind, wobei in einem dieser Leitungsabschnitte ein Durchflussmengenmesser angeordnet ist.The sub-assembly according to the invention, which is intended for a compact heating system with two heating circuits and has two rear side mounting positions for connection to a vertical pair of connections of a plate heat exchanger and a centrifugal pump, according to the invention is designed so that two side by side and in the installed position substantially vertically arranged line sections are provided, which deflects by a flow through about 180 ° Component are conductively connected, wherein in one of these line sections, a flow meter is arranged.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung ermöglicht eine im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik vergleichsweise lange Leitungsführung, in der sich die Strömung beruhigen kann und die somit für einen Durchflussmengenmesser besonders geeignet ist.The embodiment of the invention allows a comparatively long compared to the prior art wiring, in which the flow can calm and thus is particularly suitable for a flow meter.

Grundgedanke der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es somit, einerseits möglichst lange und gerade Leitungsabschnitte für eine geeignete Durchflussmengenmessung bereitzustellen, andererseits dadurch die Kompaktheit der übrigen Baueinheit nicht merklich zu beeinflussen und schließlich die Konstruktion so zu gestalten, dass wenig aufwendige Werkzeuge zur Herstellung des entsprechenden Spritzgussbauteils eingesetzt werden müssen. Dadurch, dass die beiden Leitungsabschnitte nebeneinander angeordnet sind, können diese bei geeigneter Anordnung mit Ziehkernen gleicher Ziehrichtung gefertigt werden. Darüber hinaus wird durch die vertikale Anordnung ein oberer Freiraum neben der Pumpe genutzt, der sonst ungenutzt bliebe. Durch das die Strömung um etwa 180° umlenkende Bauteil kann eine weiter unten noch im Einzelnen beschriebene vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Teilbaueinheit wahlweise erfolgen. Dadurch, dass die Strömung um etwa 180° umgelenkt ist, kann einer der Leitungsabschnitte über seine ganze Länge zur Durchflussmengenmessung genutzt werden, wohingegen der andere Leitungsabschnitt eine zumindest Teilrückführung der Strömung und weitere Leitungsführung innerhalb der Teilbaueinheit ermöglicht.The basic idea of the present invention is thus, on the one hand, to provide as long as possible and straight line sections for a suitable flow rate measurement, on the other hand not to significantly influence the compactness of the remaining structural unit and finally to design the construction so that less expensive tools are used to produce the corresponding injection-molded component have to. The fact that the two line sections are arranged side by side, they can be made with a suitable arrangement with drawing cores same direction of pull. In addition, the vertical arrangement of an upper space next to the pump is used, which would otherwise remain unused. By virtue of the component deflecting the flow through approximately 180 °, an advantageous embodiment of the subassembly, which will be described in more detail below, can optionally be carried out. Due to the fact that the flow is deflected by about 180 °, one of the line sections over its entire length can be used for flow rate measurement, whereas the other line section allows at least partial return of the flow and further routing within the sub-assembly.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Teilbaueinheit ist insbesondere für einen nach dem Vortex-Prinzip arbeitenden Durchflussmengenmesser von Vorteil, bei dem die Strömung durch eine in die Strömung ragende Obstruktion gezielt gestört und die sich hinter der Obstruktion bildende Schwingung mittels eines Druck- oder Differenzdruckmesser ausgemessen wird, um dadurch Rückschlüsse auf die Durchflussgeschwindigkeit und damit die Durchflussmenge zu ziehen. Dieses Messprinzip ist insbesondere für den vorstehend genannten Zweck in einer Heizungsanlage besonders prädestiniert, da es weitgehend unempfindlich gegenüber Ablagerungen, im Heizungswasser mitgeführten Partikeln und dergleichen ist, da es praktisch keine bewegbaren Teile aufweist. Der zur Erfassung der Schwingung eingesetzte Differenzdruckmesser ist kostengünstig in der Herstellung und arbeitet langzeitstabil nahezu verschleißfrei. Der Durchflussmengenmesser ist vorteilhaft nahe dem Anfang im anströmseitigen Leitungsabschnitt angeordnet, sodass dieser gesamte Leistungsabschnitt ausschließlich der Durchflussmengenmessung dienen kann, was die Genauigkeit der Messung positiv beeinflusst.The inventive construction of the sub-assembly is particularly for a working according to the vortex principle flow meter of advantage, in which the flow disturbed targeted by an obstruction into the flow obstruction and the forming behind the obstruction vibration by means of a pressure or differential pressure gauge is measured to thereby draw conclusions about the flow rate and thus the flow rate. This measurement principle is particularly predestined for the above purpose in a heating system, since it is largely insensitive to deposits, entrained in the heating water particles and the like, since it has virtually no moving parts. The differential pressure gauge used to detect the vibration is inexpensive to manufacture and long-term stable almost wear-free. The flow meter is advantageously arranged near the beginning in the upstream-side line section, so that this entire section of the service can serve exclusively for measuring the flow rate, which positively influences the accuracy of the measurement.

Dabei ist gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung der anströmseitige Leitungsabschnitt mit Abstand zum Pumpengehäuse angeordnet, d.h. die Strömung wird erst durch den vom Pumpengehäuse beabstandeten Leitungsabschnitt geführt, dann um 180° umgelenkt, um durch den dem Pumpengehäuse benachbarten Leitungsabschnitt zu gelangen. Daher ist vorteilhaft ein abströmseitiger Leitungsabschnitt am Pumpengehäuse angrenzend angeordnet, sodass die beiden Leitungsabschnitte mit unterschiedlichen Abständen neben dem Pumpengehäuse, vorzugsweise in Einbaulage von vorne gesehen vor dem Plattenwärmetauscher angeordnet sind.In this case, according to an embodiment of the invention, the upstream-side line section is arranged at a distance from the pump housing, i. the flow is first guided through the pipe section spaced from the pump housing, then deflected by 180 ° to pass through the pump housing adjacent line section. Therefore, an outflow-side line section is advantageously arranged adjacent to the pump housing, so that the two line sections are arranged at different distances next to the pump housing, preferably in installation position seen from the front in front of the plate heat exchanger.

Vorteilhaft wird die Obstruktion für den Durchflussmengenmesser einstückig mit dem anströmseitigen Leitungsabschnitt ausgebildet, sodass hierfür kein gesondertes Bauteil benötigt wird. Insbesondere dann, wenn der anströmseitige Leitungsabschnitt, wie bei der im nachfolgenden beschriebenen Konstruktion, beidseitig offen ausgebildet ist, kann eine solche Obstruktion werkzeugtechnisch mit geringem Aufwand durch entsprechende Modifizierung der Ziehkerne hergestellt werden. Der in Strömungsrichtung nachgeschaltete oder Druck- oder Differenzdrucksensor hingegen wird mittels einer entsprechenden Aufnahme als gesonderte Baueinheit von außen in die Leitung eingesetzt, sodass dieser bei einem Defekt ggf. schnell und einfach ausgewechselt werden kann. Da sich dieser Leitungsabschnitt vorteilhaft neben dem Pumpengehäuse und vor dem Plattenwärmetauscher befindet, ist er in Einbaulage besonders gut zugänglich.Advantageously, the obstruction for the flow meter is formed integrally with the upstream line section, so that no separate component is needed for this purpose. In particular, when the upstream-side line section, as in the construction described below, is open on both sides, such obstruction can be made by means of tools with little effort by appropriate modification of the cores. The downstream or pressure or differential pressure sensor however, is inserted by means of a corresponding receptacle as a separate unit from the outside into the line, so that it can be quickly and easily replaced if necessary in case of a defect. Since this line section is advantageously located next to the pump housing and in front of the plate heat exchanger, it is particularly well accessible in the installed position.

Das die Strömung um etwa 180° umlenkende Bauteil wird in einfachster Form als eine Art 180°-Rohrkrümmer ausgebildet sein. Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung jedoch kann die Teilbaueinheit in diesem Bereich durch ein Bauteil ergänzt werden, das zumindest Teile eines Durchflussmengenreglers aufweist. Ein solcher Durchflussmengenregler stellt eine besonders vorteilhaft Ergänzung der gesamten Baueinheit dar, da damit die Durchflussmenge des Brauchwassers bei geöffneter Entnahmestelle geregelt werden kann, ohne dass aufwendige Sensorik, Motorik und Steuer- und Regelelektronik eingesetzt werden muss. Mechanische Durchflussmengenregler zählen zum Stand der Technik und können heutzutage vergleichsweise kostengünstig und kleinbauend zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Durch einen solchen mechanisch arbeitenden Durchflussmengenregler kann die Durchflussmenge des Brauchwasser durch den Plattenwärmetauscher unabhängig vom Versorgungsdruck im wesentlichen konstant gehalten werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung beschränkt sich allerdings nicht auf mechanische Durchflussmengenregler, sondern ein solcher kann ggf. auch durch ein elektromechanischen, hydraulischen oder anderen Durchflussmengenregler gebildet werden.The flow diverting by about 180 ° component will be formed in the simplest form as a kind of 180 ° elbow. According to an advantageous development of the invention, however, the subassembly can be supplemented in this area by a component which has at least parts of a flow rate regulator. Such a flow rate regulator is a particularly advantageous addition to the entire unit, since it allows the flow rate of service water can be controlled at the open sampling point, without complex sensors, motor and control electronics must be used. Mechanical flow rate regulators are state of the art and today can be provided comparatively inexpensive and small-scale. By means of such a mechanical flow regulator, the flow rate of the process water through the plate heat exchanger can be kept substantially constant regardless of the supply pressure. However, the embodiment of the invention is not limited to mechanical flow rate regulator, but such may possibly also be formed by an electromechanical, hydraulic or other flow rate regulator.

Vorteilhaft ist in dem die Strömung umlenkenden Bauteil ein von außen betätigbares Steuerorgan zum Einstellen der Durchflussmenge angeordnet. Da dieser Bereich in Einbaulage vorne besonders gut zugänglich, kann ein solches Stellorgan vorteilhaft nach dem Einbau oder bei Wartungsarbeiten zur Einstellung der geeigneten Durchflussmenge dienen und ist beispielsweise als Rändelschraube oder Handrad ausgebildet.Advantageously, an externally operable control member for adjusting the flow rate is arranged in the flow-deflecting component. Since this area is particularly well accessible in the installation position at the front, such an actuator can advantageously be used after installation or during maintenance work to set the appropriate flow rate and is formed for example as a thumbscrew or handwheel.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorteilhaft im Bereich der Gehäuseteilung zwischen dem die Strömung umlenkenden Bauteil und einem die Leitungsabschnitte bildenden Bauteil, typischerweise den Kunststoffspritzgussbauteil, welches den wesentlichen Teil der Teilbaueinheit bildet, ein blendenförmiges Bauteil eingegliedert, das ein elastisches Element, vorzugsweise einen O-Ring aufweist. Die Anordnung in diesem Bereich ist besonders vorteilhaft, da solche elastischen Elemente typischerweise im Laufe der Zeit aushärten und somit ggf. ausgetauscht werden müssen. Dies kann bei einer solchen Ausbildung in einfacher Weise erfolgen, in dem das die Strömung umlenkende Bauteil von der Teilbaueinheit entfernt wird, wonach dieses blendenförmige Bauteil nicht nur gut sichtbar, sondern auch gut zugänglich ist, da es im Bereich der Gehäuseteilung angeordnet ist.According to a development of the invention, an aperture-like component is advantageously incorporated in the region of the housing division between the component deflecting the flow and a component forming the line segments, typically the plastic injection-molded component which forms the essential part of the partial structural unit, which is an elastic element, preferably an O-ring. Ring has. The arrangement in this area is particularly advantageous because such elastic elements typically cure over time and thus may need to be replaced. This can be done in such a simple manner in which the flow deflecting component is removed from the sub-unit, after which this iris-shaped component is not only clearly visible, but also easily accessible, since it is located in the housing division.

Vorteilhaft ist der Leitungsabschnitt, der den Durchflussmengenmesser aufweist, also vorteilhaft der vom Pumpengehäuse beabstandet angeordnete vorzugsweise geradlinig nach unten zum Brauchwasserleitungsanschluss herausgeführt oder bildet diesen. Der andere Leitungsabschnitt, der lediglich der Rückführung der Strömung dient, schießt dann vorteilhaft an einen Anschluss des Wärmetauschers an, und zwar an den eingangsseitigen Brauchwasseranschluss.Advantageously, the line section, which has the flow meter, so advantageously the spaced apart from the pump housing arranged preferably straight out led down to the service water connection or forms this. The other line section, which merely serves to return the flow, then shoots advantageous to a connection of the heat exchanger, namely to the input-side service water connection.

Die Anordnung der beiden nebeneinander angeordneten Leitungsabschnitte ist vorteilhaft so, dass diese in Einbaulage etwa senkrecht vor dem Plattenwärmetauscher und neben der Kreiselpumpe angeordnet sind, da dieser Bereich zum einen gut zugänglich und im Übrigen für andere Bauteile nicht zwingend benötigt wird.The arrangement of the two juxtaposed line sections is advantageous in that they are arranged approximately vertically in the installed position in front of the plate heat exchanger and next to the centrifugal pump, since this area is not easily accessible for a well-accessible and otherwise for other components.

Da sowohl der saugseitige Teil der Pumpe als der zur Pumpe benachbarte Leitungsabschnitt an die in Einbaulage unmittelbar übereinander liegenden Anschlüsse des Plattenwärmetauschers anschließen müssen, können diese in der Regel nicht durch einfache Querkanäle gebildet werden, da ein gewisser Versatz erforderlich ist. Um dies werkzeugtechnisch günstig zu realisieren ist gemäß der Erfindung vorgesehen, mindestens einen, vorzugsweise jedoch zwei bogenförmig an den Plattenwärmetauscher anschließende Kanäle vorzusehen, wobei die Bogenrichtung entgegengesetzt ist, sodass der gewünschte Versatz erfolgt bzw. das freie Ende der Kanäle an den in Einbaulage unmittelbar übereinander angeordneten Anschlüssen des Plattenwärmetauschers ankommt. Vorteilhaft ist dabei einer der bogenförmigen Kanäle an der Saugseite der Pumpe und der andere bogenförmige Kanal an dem vertikalen Leitungsabschnitt vorgesehen, welcher von dem die Strömung umlenkenden Bauteil zum Wärmetauscher führt. Dabei ist der Anschluss vorteilhaft so, dass der untere für das Brauchwasser und der obere für das Heizwasser, also für den Rücklauf zur Pumpe dient. Diese Anordnung hat den Vorteil, dass das über den Wärmetauscher zur Pumpe rücklaufende Wasser oben in das Pumpengehäuse einströmen kann, dort, wo typischerweise der Luftabscheider angeordnet ist, sodass die räumliche Anordnung die Luftabscheidung unterstützt.Since both the suction-side part of the pump and the line section adjacent to the pump have to connect to the connections of the plate heat exchanger lying directly above each other in the installation position, they can not usually be formed by simple transverse channels, since a certain offset is required. In order to realize this favorable tool technology is provided according to the invention to provide at least one, but preferably two arcuately following the plate heat exchanger channels, the arc direction is opposite, so that the desired offset takes place or the free end of the channels to the installation position directly above each other arranged connections of the plate heat exchanger arrives. Advantageously, one of the arcuate channels is provided on the suction side of the pump and the other arcuate channel is provided on the vertical line section, which leads from the flow-deflecting component to the heat exchanger. The connection is advantageous in that the lower for the service water and the upper for the heating water, ie for the return to the pump. This arrangement has the advantage that the water returning to the pump via the heat exchanger can flow up into the pump housing at the location where typically the air separator is arranged, so that the spatial arrangement assists the air separation.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist vorteilhaft der von dem die Strömung umlenkenden Bauteil zum Plattenwärmetauscher führende vertikale Leitungsabschnitt eine Durchbrechung auf, die mit der Saugseite der Pumpe leitungsverbunden ist bzw. über ein in die Baueinheit eingegliedertes Ventil verbindbar ist. Über eine solche Anordnung kann eine Befülleinrichtung realisiert werden, ohne externe Leitungsverbindungen, es kann also dann lediglich durch Betätigung des Ventils der Heizkreis mit Brauchwasser gefüllt oder nachgefüllt werden.According to one embodiment of the invention advantageously of the flow-deflecting component leading to the plate heat exchanger vertical line section on an opening which is conductively connected to the suction side of the pump or can be connected via a valve incorporated in the unit. About such an arrangement, a filling device can be realized without external line connections, so it can then be filled or refilled with hot water only by pressing the valve of the heating circuit.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist diese Durchbrechung als Kanal ausgebildet und mündet in einer in Einbaulage unten offenen Ventilkammer, die zur Aufnahme eines Ventilkörpers oder eines Absperrkörpers vorgesehen oder ausgebildet ist. Es kann dann vorteilhaft entweder ein solches Füllventil unmittelbar in die Teilbaueinheit eingegliedert werden, es kann jedoch auch ein Absperrkörper eingegliedert werden, um diesen Überströmkanal außer Funktion zu setzen. Alternativ kann auch eine Kombination eingesetzt werden, dahingehend, dass die Durchbrechung abgesperrt, jedoch der Zugang zum Heizkreislauf über ein Ventil dort vorgesehen ist, dann ist zweckmäßigerweise ein entsprechender Anschlussstutzen für einen Schlauch oder Leitung nach außen geführt.According to one embodiment of the invention, this opening is formed as a channel and opens into a valve assembly in the bottom open valve chamber, which is provided or formed for receiving a valve body or a shut-off. It can then be advantageously incorporated either directly such a filling valve in the sub-assembly, but it can also be incorporated a shut-off to put this overflow out of function. Alternatively, a combination can be used, to the effect that the opening blocked off, but the access to the heating circuit is provided via a valve there, then expediently a corresponding connection piece for a hose or line is led to the outside.

Die anhand der Figuren dargestellte Baueinheit 1 ist in Einbaulage in einem Chassis 2 angeordnet, welches sämtliche Bauteile der Kompaktheizungsanlage aufnimmt und mit seiner Rückwand 3 typischerweise an einer Wand hängend befestigt ist oder bei Vorsehen eines entsprechenden Gestells auch bodenstehend bzw. deckenhängend befestigt sein kann. Die Baueinheit 1 ist im unteren Teil des Chassis 2 angeordnet und weist vier nach unten abgehende Leitungen 4, 5, 6 und 7 auf, die in einer Reihe parallel zur Rückwand des Chassis 2 liegen und an welche die hausseitigen wasserführenden Leitungen angeschlossen werden. Der obere Teil der Baueinheit 1 ist, wie bei diesen Geräten üblich, zur Aufnahme eines Brenners sowie eines darüber angeordneten Primärwärmetauschers vorgesehen, diese Bauteile sind in Fig. 1 entfernt. Die Baueinheit 1 weist eine in Einbaulage rechtsseitig nach oben, zum Primärwärmetauscher abgehende Leitung 8 auf, sowie eine linksseitig angeordnete, von oben vom Primärwärmetauscher kommende Leitung 9 auf. Zentral mittig ist eine Gasleitung 10 geführt, welche vor der Baueinheit 1 angeordnet und in einer ebenfalls vor der Baueinheit 1 angeordnete Ventileinheit 11 mündet, welche die Gaszufuhr zum Brenner steuert.The assembly 1 shown in the figures is arranged in the installed position in a chassis 2, which accommodates all components of the compact heating system and is attached to its rear wall 3 typically hanging on a wall or can be fixed floor-mounted or ceiling-mounted in providing a corresponding frame. The assembly 1 is arranged in the lower part of the chassis 2 and has four downgoing outgoing lines 4, 5, 6 and 7, which lie in a row parallel to the rear wall of the chassis 2 and to which the house-side water-carrying lines are connected. The upper part of the assembly 1 is, as usual in these devices, for receiving a burner and a primary heat exchanger arranged above it, these components are in Fig. 1 away. The assembly 1 has a right side in installation position upwards to the primary heat exchanger outgoing line 8, and a left side arranged, coming from the top of the primary heat exchanger line 9. Centrally centrally, a gas line 10 is guided, which is arranged in front of the unit 1 and in a likewise arranged in front of the unit 1 valve unit 11, which controls the gas supply to the burner.

Die Baueinheit 1 weist einen Plattenwärmetauscher 12 auf, der parallel zur Rückwand 3 angeordnet ist und tafelförmig ausgebildet ist. An den Plattenwärmetauscher 12 schließt in Einbaulage rechtsseitig von vorne eine erste Teilbaueinheit 13 an sowie linksseitig eine zweite Teilbaueinheit 14. Die Teilbaueinheiten 13 und 14 sind im Wesentlichen aus Grundkörpern aus Kunststoffspritzguss gefertigt und so angeordnet, dass ihre mechanische Verbindung im Wesentlichen über den aus Metall bestehenden Plattenwärmetauscher 12 erfolgt.The assembly 1 has a plate heat exchanger 12, which is arranged parallel to the rear wall 3 and is tabular. To the plate heat exchanger 12 includes in installation position right side from the front a first sub-assembly 13 and left side a second sub-assembly 14. The sub-assemblies 13 and 14 are essentially made of plastic injection-molded main bodies and arranged so that their mechanical connection substantially over the existing metal Plate heat exchanger 12 takes place.

Die Leitungsführung innerhalb der Baueinheit 1 sowie innerhalb der Kompaktheizungsanlage ergibt sich im Einzelnen aus Fig. 15. Das aus dem Rücklauf der Raumheizung zurückfließende Wasser gelangt über den in Einbaulage rechten Leitungsanschluss in die Leitung 7 und damit in die erste Teilbaueinheit 13, die u. a. eine Kreiselpumpe 15 und einen Luftabscheider 16 umfasst. Die Leitung 7 mündet im Saugraum der Kreiselpumpe 15, an welchen nach oben hin der Luftabscheider 16 anschließt. Der Druckstutzen der Pumpe 15 ist mit der zum Primärwärmetauscher führenden Leitung 8 verbunden. Das Pumpengehäuse sowie die übrigen Leitungen der ersten Teilbaueinheit 13 sind durch ein Spritzgussbauteil gebildet. Die Kreiselpumpe 15 weist, wie bei derartigen Baueinheiten üblich, einen angeflanschten, in Einbaulage von vorne zugänglichen Elektromotor 17 auf, dessen Klemmenkasten 18 an der Oberseite des Motorgehäuse angeordnet ist.The cable routing within the unit 1 and within the compact heating system results in detail Fig. 15 , The flowing back from the return of the space heating water passes through the right in the installed position line connection in the line 7 and thus in the first sub-assembly 13, which includes, inter alia, a centrifugal pump 15 and an air separator 16. The line 7 opens into the suction chamber of the centrifugal pump 15, to which the air separator 16 connects at the top. The discharge nozzle of the pump 15 is connected to the leading to the primary heat exchanger line 8. The pump housing and the remaining lines of the first sub-assembly 13 are formed by an injection-molded component. The centrifugal pump 15 has, as usual in such units, a flanged, in installation position from the front accessible electric motor 17, the terminal box 18 is disposed at the top of the motor housing.

In Einbaulage von vorne (Fig. 4) gesehen links neben der Pumpe 15 sind zwei parallel zueinander nebeneinander vor dem Plattenwärmetauscher 12 vertikal angeordnete Leitungsabschnitte 19 und 20 vorgesehen, von denen der linke, von der Pumpe 15 mit Abstand angeordnete Leitungsabschnitt 19 senkrecht nach unten zur Leitung 6 der Baueinheit 1 führt bzw. diesen bildet. Über diese Leitung 6 wird die hauseigene Brauchwasserleitung angeschlossen. In diesen Leitungsabschnitt 9 ist nahe dem Leitungsanfang eine in Fig. 13 dargestellte in die Strömung ragende Obstruktion 40 vorgesehen und in Strömungsrichtung mit Abstand dahinter ein Differenzdrucksensor 41, der in einem senkrecht zum Leitungsabschnitt 19 verlaufenden Anschlussstutzen als herausnehmbare Sensoreinheit 21 vorgesehen ist. Es handelt sich hierbei um einen Durchflussmesser, der nach dem Vortex-Prinzip arbeitet und die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit des in die Baueinheit 1 einströmenden Brauchwassers erfasst.In installation position from the front ( Fig. 4 Seen to the left of the pump 15 are two parallel to each other side by side in front of the plate heat exchanger 12 vertically arranged line sections 19 and 20 are provided, of which the left, arranged by the pump 15 at a distance line section 19 perpendicular to the line 6 of the unit 1 leads or this forms. About this line 6, the in-house service water pipe is connected. In this line section 9 is near the beginning of a line in Fig. 13 provided in the flow projecting obstruction 40 and provided in the flow direction at a distance behind a differential pressure sensor 41 which is provided in a direction perpendicular to the line section 19 connecting piece as removable sensor unit 21. This is a flow meter which works according to the vortex principle and detects the flow velocity of the process water flowing into the unit 1.

An das obere Ende des Leitungsabschnitts 19 schließt ein die Strömung um 180° umlenkendes Bauteil 22 an, das den Leitungsabschnitt 19 mit dem in Einbaulage rechts daneben zwischen Pumpe 15 und Leitungsabschnitt 19 angeordneten rechten Leitungsabschnitt 20 verbindet. Das Bauteil 22 umfasst einen Durchflussmengenregler, mit dem die Durchflussmenge geregelt wird, sodass diese im Wesentlichen unabhängig vom Leitungsdruck ist. Hierzu ist ein zapfenförmiger Stellkörper 23 im Bauteil 22 fluchtend zum Leitungsabschnitt 20 angeordnet. Der Stellkörper weist an seinem oberen Ende eine Werkzeugaufnahme auf, hier einen Vierkant, mit dem er um seine Längsachse gedreht werden kann. Der Stellkörper 23 ist mittels eines Gewindes im Bauteil 22 gelagert, sodass je nach Drehrichtung ein den Durchfluss begrenzender mit achsparallelen nutähnlichen Kanälen versehener Konus 24 mehr oder weniger weit in eine elastische Aufnahme 25 (siehe Fig. 13) eingeschoben werden kann, die am oberen Ende des rechten Leitungsabschnittes 20 eingegliedert ist. Derartige Durchflussmengenregler zählen zum Stand der Technik, weshalb deren Funktion hier nicht im Einzelnen beschrieben ist. Die Abdichtung des Stellkörpers 23 nach außen erfolgt über einen am Stellkörper 23 angeordneten O-Ring. Das Bauteil 22 ist mittels Schrauben an an den Leitungsabschnitten 19 und 20 seitlich vorkragenden Vorsprüngen befestigt. Das Bauteil 22 kann, sofern ein Durchflussmengenregler nicht vorgesehen werden soll, durch einen 180°-Rohrbogen ersetzt werden ohne dass das daran anschließende Spritzgussbauteil der ersten Teilbaueinheit 13 verändert werden muss.At the upper end of the line section 19 includes a flow diverting by 180 ° component 22, which connects the line section 19 with the right in the installed position next to it between pump 15 and line section 19 arranged right line section 20. The component 22 comprises a flow regulator, with which the flow rate is controlled, so that it is substantially independent of the line pressure. For this purpose, a pin-shaped actuating body 23 in the component 22 is arranged in alignment with the line section 20. The adjusting body has at its upper end a tool holder, here a square, with which it can be rotated about its longitudinal axis. The adjusting body 23 is mounted by means of a thread in the component 22, so that depending on the direction of rotation a flow-limiting provided with axis-parallel groove-like channels cone 24 more or less far into an elastic receptacle 25 (see Fig. 13 ) can be inserted, which is incorporated at the upper end of the right line section 20. Such flow regulators are state of the art, which is why their function is not described in detail here. The sealing of the actuating body 23 to the outside via a arranged on the actuating body 23 O-ring. The component 22 is fastened by means of screws to the line sections 19 and 20 laterally projecting projections. If a flow rate regulator is not to be provided, the component 22 can be replaced by a 180 ° tube bend without the injection molding component of the first substructure unit 13 adjoining it having to be changed.

Das in Einbaulage untere Ende des Leitungsabschnitts 20 ist über einen bogenförmig in der Teilbaueinheit 13 geführten Kanalleitungsabschnitt 42 mit dem in Einbaulage unteren rechten Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 verbunden. Der darüber liegende obere Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 ist über einen ebenfalls bogenförmig ausgebildeten Leitungsabschnitt 43 mit dem Saugraum der Pumpe 15 verbunden. Diese Leitungsabschnitte 42 und 43 sind bogenförmig ausgebildet, so dass sie durch Schwenkkerne von der Rückseite der Teilbaueinheit 13 aus gebildet werden können, gleichzeitig jedoch einen gewissen seitlichen Versatz erlauben.The installation in the lower end of the line section 20 is connected via an arcuately guided in the sub-assembly 13 channel line section 42 with the lower right in the installed position of the plate heat exchanger 12. The overlying upper port of the plate heat exchanger 12 is connected via a likewise arcuate line section 43 with the suction chamber of the pump 15. These line sections 42 and 43 are arc-shaped, so that they can be formed by pivot cores from the back of the sub-assembly 13, while allowing a certain lateral offset.

Der Leitungsabschnitt 42 weist nach unten hin eine Durchbrechung auf, welche diesen Leitungsabschnitt 42 mit einem senkrecht nach unten führenden Kanal 44 leitungsverbindet, der nach unten hin aufgeweitet ausgebildet und eine Aufnahme 45 für ein Ventil 46 bildet, dessen Ventilkörper 47 über ein von außen zwischen dem Anschlussstutzen für das kalte Brauchwasser und dem Anschlussstutzen für den Rücklauf des Heizungswassers angeordnet und zugänglich ist. Dieses Ventil 46 weist einen Dichtkörper 48 nahe dem oberen Ende des Ventilkörpers 47 auf, welcher je nach Stellung des Ventils den Kanal 44 verschließt oder öffnet und dann über den durch die Aufnahme 45 gebildeten Raum mit einer rückseitig innerhalb der Teilbaueinheit 13 an die Bypassleitung anschließenden Leitung und somit mit der Rücklaufseite des Heizkreises verbindet. Mittels dieses Ventils 46 kann die Brauchwasserleitung mit dem Heizkreis verbunden werden, um den Heizkreis zu befüllen oder nachzufüllen.The line section 42 has an opening at the bottom, which lines lead this line section 42 with a vertically downwardly leading channel 44, which formed widened down and forms a receptacle 45 for a valve 46, the valve body 47 via a from the outside between the Connection piece for the cold service water and the connection piece for the return of the heating water is arranged and accessible. This valve 46 has a sealing body 48 near the upper end of the valve body 47, which closes or opens the passage 44 depending on the position of the valve and then connects, via the space formed by the receptacle 45, to a line adjoining the bypass line at the rear within the sub-assembly 13 and thus to the return side of the heating circuit. By means of this valve 46, the hot water line can be connected to the heating circuit to fill the heating circuit or refill.

Alternativ kann die Teilbaueinheit 13 durch entsprechende Änderung des die Aufnahme 45 und den Kanal 44 bildenden Ziehkerns des Werkzeugs so ausgebildet werden, dass eine Durchbrechung zwischen dem Kanal 44 und dem Leitungsabschnitt 42 nicht gebildet ist. Dann ist das Ventil 46 so modifiziert, dass es lediglich einen Anschlussstutzen bildet, der je nach Stellung des Ventilkörpers 47 mit dem Heizkreis verbunden ist oder demgegenüber abgesperrt ist. Dieser Stutzen dient dann ebenfalls zum Befüllen bzw. Nachfüllen des Heizkreises mit Wasser und ist entweder fest über einen Disconnecteur, d. h. über eine Leitung mit darin befindlichem Rückschlagventil mit der Brauchwasserseite der anderen, in Einbaulage linken Teilbaueinheit 14 verbunden oder über eine schlauchartige Leitung mit einem entsprechenden Anschluss an der Teilbaueinheit 14, der dort ebenfalls mit einem Absperrventil ausgestattet ist.Alternatively, the sub-assembly 13 may be formed by correspondingly changing the take-up 45 and the channel 44 forming die core of the tool so that an opening between the channel 44 and the line section 42 is not formed. Then, the valve 46 is modified so that it forms only a connecting piece, which is connected depending on the position of the valve body 47 to the heating circuit or is closed off in contrast. This nozzle is then also used to fill or refill the heating circuit with water and is either fixed via a Disconnecteur, d. H. connected via a line with non-return valve located therein with the hot water side of the other, in installation position left sub-assembly 14 or via a hose-like line with a corresponding connection to the sub-assembly 14, which is also equipped there with a shut-off valve.

Der rechte Leitungsabschnitt 20 schließt an dem in Einbaulage unteren rechten Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 an, sodass das kalte Brauchwasser an dem unteren rechten Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 in diesen einströmt, diesen zum unteren linken Anschluss durchströmt und dort in einem um 90° nach unten abgebogenen Leitungsteil mündet, welches am Ende die Leitung 5 für das aus der Baueinheit 1 austretende warme Brauchwasser bildet. Erwärmt wird dieses Brauchwasser durch im Gegenstrom von dem oberen linken Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 zum oberen rechten Anschluss strömendes Heizwasser. Der obere rechte Anschluss ist über einen Leitungsabschnitt mit dem Saugraum der Pumpe 15 der ersten Teilbaueinheit 13 verbunden.The right-hand conduit section 20 adjoins the lower right-hand connection of the plate heat exchanger 12 in the installed position so that the cold process water flows into the lower right-hand connection of the plate heat exchanger 12, flows through this to the lower left connection and there in a line part bent downwards through 90 ° opens, which forms at the end of the line 5 for emerging from the unit 1 warm hot water. This hot water is heated by heating water flowing countercurrently from the upper left port of the plate heat exchanger 12 to the upper right port. The upper right port is over a pipe section connected to the suction chamber of the pump 15 of the first sub-assembly 13.

Das aus dem Primärwärmetauscher austretende heiße Wärmeträgermedium gelangt durch die Leitung 9 über einen Leitungsabschnitt 26, welcher Teil der zweiten Baueinheit 14 ist und der sich in Einbaulage gesehen nach unten und hinten in einen Bogen erstreckt (s. Fig. 2) in eine im Wesentlichen zylindrische Aufnahme 27 für den Schaltkörper eines Umschaltventils 28. Die Aufnahme 27 liegt mit ihrer Achse parallel zum Plattenwärmetauscher 12 und im rechten Winkel windschief zur Laufradachse der Kreiselpumpe 15. Die Aufnahme ist zu der in Einbaulage von vorne gesehen linken Seite durch einen Verschlussdeckel 29 zugänglich nach dessen Entfernen der Schaltkörper aus der Aufnahme seitlich herausgezogen werden kann.The emerging from the primary heat exchanger hot heat transfer medium passes through the line 9 via a line section 26, which is part of the second unit 14 and seen in the installation position extends down and behind in an arc (s. Fig. 2 The receptacle 27 lies with its axis parallel to the plate heat exchanger 12 and at right angles askew to the impeller axis of the centrifugal pump 15. The recording is to the left in installation position from the left side a closure lid 29 accessible after removing the switch body can be pulled out of the receptacle side.

Mittig in der Aufnahme 27 mündet der Leitungsabschnitt 26, der je nach Schaltstellung des Schaltkörpers des Umschaltventils 28 die vom Primärwärmetauscher kommende Leitung 9 mit der Leitung 4 für den Vorlauf der Raumheizung oder mit dem in Einbaulage oberen linken Anschluss des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 zur Erhitzung des Brauchwassers verbindet. Entsprechend schließt die Leitung 4 nahe der offenen Stirnseite der Aufnahme 27 im Wesentlichen nach unten an diese an, wohingegen der Leitungsabschnitt 26 daneben, im Wesentlichen von oben und vorne und die zum Plattenwärmetauscher 12 führende Leitung nahe dem geschlossenen Ende der Aufnahme 27 anschließt.Center of the receptacle 27 opens the line section 26, depending on the switching position of the switching body of the switching valve 28, the coming from the primary heat exchanger line 9 connects with the line 4 for the flow of space heating or with the upper left in the installation position of the plate heat exchanger 12 for heating the service water , Accordingly, the conduit 4 close to the open end of the receptacle 27 substantially down to this, whereas the line section 26 adjacent thereto, substantially from above and front and the plate heat exchanger 12 leading line near the closed end of the receptacle 27 connects.

Das Umschaltventil 28 wird von einem elektrischen Stellmotor 30 gesteuert, der oberhalb des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 jedoch vor diesem angeordnet ist und dessen Drehachse in einer vertikalen Ebene liegt, in der auch die Längsachse der Aufnahme 27 abgeordnet ist. Das Umschaltventil 28 mit dem zugehörigen Stellmotor 30 ist hier nicht im Einzelnen beschrieben, es wird insoweit beispielhaft auf EP 04 026 233 A1 verwiesen, wo ein solches Ventil im Einzelnen beschrieben ist.The switching valve 28 is controlled by an electric servomotor 30, which is above the plate heat exchanger 12, however, arranged in front of this and the axis of rotation lies in a vertical plane in which the longitudinal axis of the receptacle 27 is seconded. The switching valve 28 with the associated servomotor 30 is not detailed here described, it is exemplary in this respect EP 04 026 233 A1 referenced where such a valve is described in detail.

Die zweite Teilbaueinheit 14, deren Grundaufbau ebenfalls aus einem Kunststoffspritzgussteil gebildet ist, umfasst somit das Umschaltventil 28 mit den entsprechenden Leitungsanschlüsse und ist mit den in Einbaulage linksseitigen Leitungsanschlüssen des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 fest verbunden, sie umfasst somit auch die Leitung 5. Mechanisch sind die erste Teilbaueinheit 13 und die zweite Teilbaueinheit 14 im Wesentlichen über den Plattenwärmetauscher 12 miteinander verbunden, gleichwohl auch andere Verbindungen, wie beispielsweise die Bodenplatte des Chassis 2 sowie eine Bypassleitung verbinden, die jedoch so verbunden sind, dass sie in Längsrichtung des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 (in Einbaulage in horizontaler Richtung) bewegbar geführt sind, um das Einbringen von Wärmspannungen aufgrund unterschiedlicher Materialdehnungen zu vermeiden.The second sub-assembly 14, whose basic structure is also formed of a plastic injection molded part, thus includes the switching valve 28 with the corresponding line connections and is firmly connected to the left in the installed position line connections of the plate heat exchanger 12, thus including the line 5. Mechanically, the first sub-assembly 13 and the second sub-assembly 14 substantially connected to each other via the plate heat exchanger 12, but also connect other compounds, such as the bottom plate of the chassis 2 and a bypass line, but which are connected so that they in the longitudinal direction of the plate heat exchanger 12 (in installation position in horizontal Direction) are movably guided in order to avoid the introduction of thermal stresses due to different material expansions.

An die Leitung 4 für den Vorlauf der Raumheizung schließt rückseitig mit einem Leitungsabschnitt 31 eine Bypassleitung 32 an, die die zweite Teilbaueinheit 14 mit der ersten Teilbaueinheit 13 verbindet und seitlich an die erste Teilbaueinheit 13 im Bereich zwischen Plattenwärmetauscher 12 und den Leitungsabschnitten 19 und 20 anschließt und somit eine Verbindung zum Saugbereich der Pumpe 15 bildet. Der Leitungsabschnitt 31 schließt an einen senkrecht dazu in gleicher Ebene verlaufenden Leitungsabschnitt 33 an, der neben den Plattenwärmetauscher 12 in Flucht dazu verläuft. Dieser ist in Einbaulage rechtsseitig um 90° nach vorne abgewinkelt und geht dort in einen Leitungsabschnitt 34 über, der nach vorne hin offen ausgebildet ist und zur Aufnahme einer Armatur 35 in Form eines einstellbaren Druckbegrenzungsventils dient. Nahe dem vorderen Ende des Leitungsabschnitts 34 schließt nach rechts ein Leitungsabschnitt 36 an, der vor dem Plattenwärmetauscher 12 parallel dazu verläuft. Eine rückseitig von diesem auskragende Stütze 37 kommt an der Unterseite des Plattenwärmetauschers 12 zur Anlage. An diesem Leitungsabschnitt 36 schließt wiederum senkrecht dazu ein eine Armatur 38 aufnehmender und somit nach vorne offener Leitungsabschnitt an, der hier beispielsweise als Füllventil zum Befüllen der Heizungsanlage mit Wasser ausgebildet ist. Das rechte Ende des Leitungsabschnitts 36 ist mit einem O-Ring 39 versehen und lediglich in Richtung quer zur Längsachse des Leitungsabschnitts 36 in der entsprechend dazu fluchtenden Aufnahme der ersten Teilbaueinheit 14 geführt, sodass eine Bewegung in Achsrichtung zum Ausgleich von Toleranzen und Wärmedehnungen möglich ist.To the line 4 for the flow of the space heating closes the back with a line section 31 to a bypass line 32, which connects the second sub-unit 14 with the first sub-unit 13 and laterally connected to the first sub-unit 13 in the region between plate heat exchanger 12 and the line sections 19 and 20 and thus forms a connection to the suction region of the pump 15. The line section 31 connects to a perpendicular thereto in the same plane extending line portion 33 which extends in addition to the plate heat exchanger 12 in alignment with it. This is angled in the installed position on the right side by 90 ° to the front and there goes into a line section 34 which is open toward the front and serves to receive a valve 35 in the form of an adjustable pressure relief valve. Near the front end of the line section 34, a line section 36 connects to the right, which extends parallel to the plate heat exchanger 12 in front of it. A back of this cantilevered support 37 comes to the bottom of the plate heat exchanger 12 to the plant. At this line section 36 in turn closes perpendicular to a fitting 38 receiving and thus open to the front line section, which is formed here, for example, as a filling valve for filling the heating system with water. The right end of the line section 36 is provided with an O-ring 39 and guided only in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the line section 36 in the corresponding aligned receiving the first sub-assembly 14 so that a movement in the axial direction to compensate for tolerances and thermal expansion is possible.
