Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for installing a termination box in a wall structure, with which termination box a conduit is or may be connected to a tap assembly on the wall, said termination box comprising a body provided with mounting holes, and a bushing or corresponding tunnel, for which a through hole is or may be made in the wall or at least in an outer panel or sheet of the wall structure.
  • termination box applies also, in addition to the description of the embodiments of the invention; to a wall bends and wall bend fixtures in which the conduit and media pipe is bent 90 deg and fixed to the wall by wall bend supports and media pipe by a straight connector, i.e. tap fitting. So, by the term “tap elbow” is also covered such straight tap fittings.
  • Water conduits in buildings are quite commonly connected to tap assemblies mounted on a wall surface by tap elbows or tap fittings.
  • tap elbows or tap fittings When conduits are mounted inside the wall structure it is extremely important that the conduit is connected to the tap elbow and further to the tap assembly so that the connections are watertight to prevent water leakage and damages caused by such leakages. Therefore the tap elbow is placed in a termination box and the water conduit is placed in a protective pipe to form a double wall structure (so-called pipe-in-pipe structure). This kind of mounting construction is quite well protected against leakages.
  • a termination box for connecting a conduit to a tap assembly comprises a body inside of which a tap elbow is mounted, and the conduit comprises an inner utility pipe and an outer protective pipe.
  • the conduit is connected to the tap elbow with a fastening sleeve, and the tap assembly is connected to the tap elbow through a bushing or corresponding tunnel, for which a through hole is made in the wall or at least in the outer panel or sheet of the wall structure.
  • installation positions e.g. holes are made in the body of the termination box narrow to the tunnel. So the distance from the installation positions to the tunnel is very small.
  • the hole made in the wall structure for the tunnel by a drill saw or corresponding has a diameter which is about 2 to 4 mm bigger than the wall piercing tunnel which makes the mounting of the termination box to the wall quite difficult.
  • mounting to the back side of termination box should be wider than the installation positions in the body of the termination box.
  • an additional mounting part is necessary, which in different mounting arrangements has to differ in size and/or shape.
  • the mounting of the termination box is supported by a special plate. It is possible to install two termination boxes to the same plate. A disadvantage of the installation of this kind is that the installation plate has to be made specifically for each purpose, so that said plate is not universal.
  • the objective of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved arrangement for installing a termination box or, as explained above, a wall bend or wall bend fixture, in a wall structure.
  • the inventive arrangement is mainly characterized in that the arrangement comprises at least one separate mounting bracket attached, or at least attachable, to the mounting holes in the body of the termination box, which mounting bracket is provided with holes through which said bracket with the termination box can be fastened in the wall structure by installation screws, the holes in the bracket being arranged at a bigger distance from the bushing or corresponding tunnel than the mounting holes in the body of the termination box in the radial direction of the bushing or corresponding tunnel.
  • the arrangement comprises just one or more mounting brackets.
  • the present invention could also be specified as, and the purpose of the present invention is also to provide, a novel mounting bracket for installing a termination box in a wall structure.
  • Such mounting bracket is characterized by what is disclosed above and in the embodiments below.
  • the arrangement further comprises a stabilizing ring and the tunnel of the termination box, for installing of which the mounting bracket is designed, is provided with outer threads onto which a stabilizing ring is or may be twisted, said stabilizing ring comprising a thread section and a support section which rests, when the termination box is fastened in the wall structure and the stabilizing ring is twisted onto the outer threads, against the surface of the wall, whereby the sheet of the wall is squeezed between the bracket and the support section of the stabilizing ring.
  • the bracket may have a support surface provided with spikes protruding from said support surface, whereby when the wall sheet is squeezed between the bracket and the stabilizing ring, said spikes prevent a twisting movement of the bracket.
  • the thread section of the stabilizing ring may be provided with tongue parts which prevent the stabilizing ring to be opened by twisting in an opposite direction.
  • the outer threads of the tunnel of the termination box, for installing of which the mounting bracket is designed may be partly removed or they may be initially formed to cover only part of the tunnel outer surface so as to form, along the circumference of the tunnel outer surface, alternating thread segments and smooth segments, the thread segments extending a bit outer on the tunnel outer surface than the smooth segments.
  • the tongue parts may be formed so as to stop, when the stabilizing ring is twisted to such opposite direction, against the edges formed between such thread segments and smooth segments of the tunnel.
  • the mounting bracket is a foldable structure comprising two opposite parts connected with each other by a hinge about which said two parts are foldable from an open position to a closed position.
  • the mounting bracket is provided with dowels to be fitted into the mounting holes in the body of the termination box and to attach the bracket to the body of the termination box.
  • the dowels are arranged in the two opposite parts of the mounting bracket, so that in its closed position the bracket is locked in place attached to the body of the termination box.
  • the two opposite parts of the mounting bracket may be provided with a snap-in fastener by which the bracket can be fastened in the closed position.
  • a gap is formed between the opposite parts of the bracket, so that a part of the body of the termination box is locked in said gap between the opposite parts of the bracket.
  • the bracket is mountable on the top, front, back and/or sides of the body of the termination box.
  • the present invention provides considerable advantages over the prior art.
  • the inventive installation arrangement comprises an extra mounting bracket, so-called foot print part, which can be used in several mounting manners, e.g. in front mountings, top mountings and back and side mountings.
  • Said inventive extra mounting bracket is applicable in all of these mounting alternatives, whereby different mounting parts are not needed for different mountings.
  • the inventive mounting bracket is universal the construction of which is simple, whereby the installation of the termination box with said mounting part is easy.
  • the inventive mounting bracket makes it possible to use same parts for installations in different wall constructions, as in light concrete walls and various different board construction walls.
  • the mounting bracket gives improved support and increased footprint for the termination box installation.
  • the present invention is directed to handle and solve the problems relating to the installing of a termination in a wall structure.
  • the termination box is generally denoted with the reference numeral 10.
  • the termination box 10 is intended to be mounted inside a wall structure of a building (not shown) to connect a conduit to a tap assembly and it comprises a body 11, 13, 14, inside of which a tap elbow is mounted, and a bushing 12 or corresponding tunnel through which the tap assembly is connected to the tap elbow.
  • a through hole is made in the wall or at least in the outer panel or sheet of the wall structure.
  • the body 11, 13, 14 of the termination box 10 is provided with several installation positions 15, i.e. mounting holes through which the termination box 10 can be installed to the wall structure by installation screws.
