Definitions

  • the invention relates firstly to a method for configuring a connection part for a radiator with a Walkerstoffstutzen for connecting a supply or return line for a heating means, with a first connection piece for connection to a first heating plate of the radiator and with a second connection piece for connection to a second Heating plate of the radiator, wherein a branch element is introduced into a first position in the connection part, in which it fluid-tightly closes a first passage between the Edelstoffstutzen and the first connection piece and holds a second passage between the Schuschstutzen and the second connection piece open, and to another Connecting part for a radiator with a Walkerstoffstutzen for connecting a supply or return line for a heating means, with a first connecting piece for connection to a first heating plate of the radiator, with a second connection clip for connection to a second heating plate of the radiator, and with a branching element inserted in such a way that the branching element fluid-tightly closes a first passage between the Edelstoffstutzen and
  • connection parts of the aforementioned type are generally known:
  • a branching element for example made of steel, is inserted and soldered, welded or otherwise sealed in a mostly cast-metal base body which has the connecting pieces and the heating medium socket, such that the first passage opens and the second passage is closed.
  • known connection parts using the same basic bodies are configured by means of alternative branch elements such that the first passage is closed and the second passage is opened.
  • connection parts are used in so-called "serial" radiators, which have a front and (at least) a rear water-flowed hotplate, for better radiation output in partial load operation, the heating medium coming from the flow line through the connector on one side of the radiator first the - viewed from the room to be heated - flows through the front heating plate, overflowed into the rear heating plate and drains through a further connection part in the return line.
  • One of the two bottom-side connecting parts typically has a control valve.
  • connection parts are configured in two alternative versions and kept in stock ,
  • the invention has for its object to reduce the manufacturing and storage costs for the connecting parts.
  • the branch element is pivoted into the first position from a second position in which it holds the first passage open and closes off the second passage in a fluid-tight manner.
  • the branch element can be used before pivoting for one variant of the installation and after pivoting for the other variant. Production and storage of different connection parts is no longer necessary.
  • an opening in a peripheral surface of the branch element is guided by the pivoting over the second passage.
  • the opening and closing of the passages is so particularly easy realized.
  • connection part according to the invention makes it possible to carry out one of the above-described methods according to the invention and is distinguished by the advantages mentioned there.
  • connection part according to the invention preferably has a valve connection for connecting a control valve.
  • connection part may be designed without a valve stub with a closed basic body for a heating medium flow regulated elsewhere.
  • valve stub is tubular and attached to a main body of the connecting part of a connector according to the invention.
  • the two-part design of the connection part of welded base body and valve neck allows on the one hand the low-cost production of the complex shaped body in primary molding, especially in casting and on the other hand the introduction of precisely defined thread and contact surfaces on the valve stub when it is made from a drawn precision tube.
  • a connection part according to the invention has a pipe running in a longitudinal axis of the valve stub, by means of which the heating medium stub can be connected to the control valve.
  • the control valve is particularly easy to put under avoidance of duplication.
  • the branch element encloses the tube in an annular manner.
  • the branch element and the pipe can then be prefabricated in particular as a coherent component, whereby the production of the connecting part according to the invention is further simplified.
  • the branching element has a form-locking element into which a handling means can be positively inserted in such a way that the branching element can be pivoted by pivoting the handling means.
  • a handling means may in particular be a hexagon or a groove introduced into the longitudinal axis of the connecting part. If the branch element is firmly connected to the tube, the tube can alternatively or internally have this form-fitting element inside or outside.
  • the handling means is typically a commercially available or specially designed for this purpose screwing tool
  • connector part 1 for a radiator has a base body 2 a Hostutzen 3 for connecting a supply or return line for a heating means, a first connecting piece 4 for connection to a first heating plate of the radiator, a second connecting piece 5 for connection to a second heating plate of the Radiator and a valve stub 6 for connecting a control valve.
  • the radiator and its heating plates, the supply or return line, the heating means and the control valve are not shown.
  • the main body 2 is made of a suitable structural steel (here: C4C) by casting, the heating medium nozzle 3 and the connecting pieces 4, 5 are integrally formed on the base body 2.
  • the valve stub 6 is cut from a suitable steel tube (here: a custom-rolled E235 tube according to EN 10305-3) with a diameter 7 of 28 mm to a length 8 of 35 mm and welded to the main body 2 in a circumferential weld 9.
  • the connecting pieces 4, 5 have a common longitudinal axis 10, the longitudinal axis 11 of the Edelstoffstutzen 3 and the longitudinal axis 12 of the valve stub 6 are mutually and to the longitudinal axis 10 of the connecting piece 4, 5 vertically.
  • the base body 2 In the direction of the longitudinal axis 10 of the connecting piece 4, 5, the base body 2 has a width 13 of 75.5 mm.
  • the base body 2 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 11 of the Schuschstutzen 3 a height 14 of 26.5 mm and in the direction of the longitudinal axis 12 of the valve stub 6 has a length 15 of 59 mm.
  • the connecting pieces 4, 5 have an outer diameter 16 of 24.5 mm and an inner diameter 17 of 18.5 mm.
  • the Schuschstutzen 3 has a cut after casting external thread 18 with a nominal diameter 19 of 3 ⁇ 4 inch.
  • the Valve stub 6 has a length 21 of 21 mm, a cut internal thread 21 with a nominal diameter 22 of 1 ⁇ 2 inch.
  • the main body 2 has between the connecting piece 4, 5 a molded-in center piece 23 with a likewise molded Edelstoffkanal 24.
  • the Studstoffkanal 24 has a diameter 25 of 9.5 mm, extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis 12 of the valve stub 6 by a distance 26 of 4 mm displaced parallel to the longitudinal axis 11 of the Edelstoffstutzen 3 and strikes in the longitudinal axis 12 of the valve stub 6 on a running in this longitudinal axis 12 bearing bore 27.
  • the bearing bore 27 is formed in the base body 2, but subsequently drilled and ground inside. Perpendicular to the bearing bore 27, the middle piece 23 is provided with a ground bearing surface 28.
  • valve stub 6 Before welding the valve stub 6 is in FIG. 2 shown prefabricated component 29 inserted from a branch element 30 and a pipe 31 in the base body 2.
  • the tube 31 consists of a suitable special brass (here: CuZn39Pb2) and is cut from a suitable rod (here: according to EN 12164). It has an outer diameter 32 of 12 mm and a radially outwardly encircling collar 33.
  • Branch element 30 shown in three views is injection-molded from a suitable fiber-reinforced plastic (here: PA 66 30% FV) and is substantially tubular.
  • the branch element 30 has a height 34 of 12 mm, an outer diameter 35 of 22.5 mm and an inner diameter 36 of 20.5 mm and an inner circumferential collar 37 with an inner diameter 38 of 16.8 mm.
  • the collar 37 of the branch element 30 is glued to the collar 33 of the tube 31.
