Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hollow enbloc header unit for heating systems.
  • the present invention finds advantageous though non-exclusive application in heating systems that use bi-thermal wall-mounted boilers (i.e., combined boilers for heating and for production of domestic hot water), to which the ensuing description will make explicit reference without this implying any loss of generality.
  • DE-U1-91 01 260 describes a hollow enbloc header unit with a plurality of connectors whereas it is in the form of a single piece and it comprises a first branch shaped as a whole like a Z, said first branch comprising a first pipe suitable for housing a differential by-pass valve, it comprises a second branch, which is also shaped as a whole like a Z, said second branch comprising a second pipe suitable for housing a safety valve, the second pipe being close as possible to the first pipe.
  • the aim of the present invention is consequently to provide a hollow enbloc header unit to be installed in a heating system, in particular on the return piping of the heating system, that will be easy and economically advantageous to produce.
  • a hollow enbloc header unit for heating systems is provided according to what is claimed in Claim 1 or in any one of the claims that depend directly or indirectly upon Claim 1.
  • FIG. 1 designated as a whole by 10 is a heating system, of a known type, comprising a combined wall-mounted boiler 50 of the bi-thermal type.
  • the wall-mounted boiler 50 having a containment guard 50A, in turn comprises a hollow enbloc header unit 100 built according to the present invention.
  • the heating system 10 moreover envisages the presence of at least one radiator 51 and at least one point 52 for drawing off domestic hot water.
  • the radiator 51 is supplied with incoming hot water by means of a pipe 53, whilst the cold water leaving the radiator 51 returns to the wall-mounted boiler 50 through a pipe 54.
  • designated by 55 is a pipe for supply of domestic hot water to the offtake point 52, and designated by 56 is a pipe for the cold water coming from the mains (not shown).
  • the cold water at inlet from the pipe 56 connected up with the mains serves to supply the offtake point 52 (after it has been heated), and/or to top up the heating system 10.
  • a burner 60 supplied with a fuel gas (LPG, methane, etc.) by means of a gas-supply pipe 61.
  • a fuel gas LPG, methane, etc.
  • a bi-thermal heat exchanger 65 which has the purpose of heating simultaneously both the domestic water for supplying the offtake point 52 and the water of the circuit for heating the environments, which comprises the radiator 51.
  • the water coming from the mains enters the boiler 50 through the pipe 56, passes into the heat exchanger 65, and exits from the boiler 50 as hot water through the pipe 55.
  • the cold water passes through a flow switch 57 that gives precedence to the domestic water, said flow switch being hydraulically connected through a topping-up pipe to the hollow enbloc header unit 100.
  • Completing the wall-mounted boiler 50 are the following elements:
  • the hollow enbloc header unit 100 forming the specific subject of the present invention is illustrated in greater detail with reference to Figures 2 to 10 and comprises the following elements:
  • the ensemble of the connector 102 (with axis (X)), the pipe 103 (with axis (Y)), and the portion 110A (with axis (X*)) of the pipe 110 (with axis (X*)) constitutes a by-pass branch 200 designed to guarantee a minimum flowrate of recirculation of water through the heat exchanger 65 of the boiler 50.
  • the by-pass branch 200 is substantially Z-shaped in such a way that at least a portion thereof, constituted in this case by the pipe 103 (with axis (Y)), will be as close as possible to the pipe 108 (with axis (Y*)) thus reducing the overall dimensions of the hollow enbloc main body 100 (see below). It should likewise be noted that the by-pass branch 200 is completely integrated in the hollow enbloc main body 100.
  • axes (X), (X*), (Y), (Y*), (Y**) all substantially lie in one and the same plane ( ⁇ ).
  • the ensemble of the connector 113 (with axis (W*)), the pipe 108 (with axis (Y*)), and the connector 112 (with axis (W)) constitutes a cold-water return branch 250, which is also completely integrated in the hollow enbloc main body 100. Also the cold-water branch 250 has a Z configuration.
  • the axes (Y*), (W) and (W*) all substantially lie in one and the same plane ( ⁇ ) perpendicular to the aforesaid plane ( ⁇ ). In fact, the planes ( ⁇ ) and ( ⁇ ) intersect in a straight line coinciding with the axis (Y*).
  • the by-pass branch 200 and the cold-water return branch 250 which both have a Z configuration, intersect in a point (P) belonging simultaneously to the planes ( ⁇ ) and ( ⁇ ) and to the axes (X*) and (Y*).
  • the branch 250 is a hot-water delivery branch.
  • the hollow enbloc header unit 100 comprises the following elements:
  • a hollow enbloc header unit 100 is obtained that is extremely compact and hence occupies a very small space in the three dimensions, i.e., length (L1), width (L2) ( Figure 9 ), and height (H) ( Figure 10 ).
  • the desired compactness of the hollow enbloc header unit 100 is represented above all by the fact that, as has been said previously, the by-pass branch 200 and the cold-water return branch 250 both have a Z configuration and intersect in the point (P) belonging simultaneously to the planes ( ⁇ ) and ( ⁇ ) and to the axes (X*) and (Y*).
  • the hollow enbloc header unit 100 is normally made of a single piece, for example, with a single operation of die-casting or else pressure injection moulding.
  • the main characteristic of the hollow enbloc header unit 100 described above regards its geometrical conformation which can be equated with an extremely compact technical plate (or base), designed to contain, according to parallel-perpendicular axes, all the pipes and connectors for connection with the pipes and with the safety and control devices of the heating system 10.
  • the hollow enbloc header unit 100 has a geometrical conformation that can be equated with that of a technical plate (or base), we mean that the aforesaid height (H) is much smaller both than the length (L1) and than the width (L2).
  • Forming part of the heating system 10 are also the following elements, hydraulically connected to the aforesaid hollow enbloc header unit 100:
  • a normally open tap 105 Located in the connector 117 is a normally open tap 105; as is known, the tap 105 can be closed, in effect performing the function of bypass of the radiator system only if there are not envisaged thermostatic radiator valves or zone valves for blocking the flow circulating when the environment no longer requires heat;
  • the main advantage of the hollow enbloc header unit described above is that it has a geometrical shape that can be equated to that of a technical plate (or base) designed to contain, according to parallel-perpendicular axes, all the pipes and connections with the safety and control devices of the heating system.
