Abstract

Radiator, in particular a bathroom radiator, characterized in that it comprises:- a vertical manifold (2) made of metallic material , closed above and below by two plates (4,6), crossed internally by a heating fluid,- at least one metal sleeve (2) or hinged in a rotatable manner to said manifold (2), to said at least one sleeve (2) a metallic radiating element (18) being connected.

Description

  • The present invention relates to a radiator, in particular a radiator for a bathroom.
  • Water radiators are generally known which consist of a tube bundle (with horizontal or vertical tubes) or plates connected to manifolds crossed by heated water.
  • Electric radiators filled with a fluid and heated by means of an electrical resistance which engages the natural circulation are also known .
  • Generally the tubes or plates are arranged parallel or perpendicularly to a wall of the bathroom.
  • WO2010103385 describes a radiator formed by manifolds connected together by pairs of transverse elements which are constrained to the manifolds by the use of screws.
  • EP 0896084 describes a radiator consisting of two manifolds to one of which an articulation hinge of a support arm is fixed.
  • The object of the invention is to provide a radiator in which the arrangement of the heating element can be varied as desired with respect to a vertical collector.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a radiator which can also be used as a towel holder.
  • These objects and others which will become apparent from the following description are achieved according to the invention with a radiator for a bath as described in claim 1.
  • The present invention is further clarified hereinafter in a preferred embodiment thereof, given purely by way of a non-limiting example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
    • Figure 1 shows in a perspective view a radiator according to the invention,
    • Figure 2 shows it in longitudinal section,
    • Figure 3 shows the detail of the water inlet area,
    • Figure 4 show the radiator in plan, and
    • Figure 5 shows the valve in longitudinal section.
  • As can be seen from the figures, the radiator according to the invention consists of a vertical tubular metal manifold 2, preferably stainless steel, closed at both ends by a lower circular plate 4 and an upper circular plate 6.
  • The lower plate 4 is covered by a threaded hole 8 in which a corresponding threaded sleeve 10 of a single or double pipe valve indicated generically with 12 (equipped with a coaxial connection or connection) engages, through which the heating fluid enters and exits.
  • In particular, said valve 12 comprises a small tube or probe 14, made of plastic or other materials, having a smaller diameter than the diameter of the threaded sleeve 10 and a height less than the height of the tubular manifold 2.
  • At the vertical tubular manifold 2 are jointed in a rotatable manner two sleeves 16, each of which is welded to a projecting radiating element 18 consisting of a vertical slab bent to form a V, the sleeves and the sheet being made of metallic material, preferably aluminum.
  • In an embodiment variant the sleeves are integral parts of the plates.
  • In other embodiments, the radiant element can consist of a simple flat plate, of rods welded together, the whole being welded or in turn incorporated into the sleeve.
  • The two sleeves 16 are separated, in correspondence with their circular facing edges, by a gasket 20 in anti-friction Teflon or similar materials.
  • To mount the radiator we proceed in the following manner: to the wall to which is applied the radiator are placed two brackets 22 L arranged specular to each other with the distance between their horizontal sections 24 substantially corresponding to the height of the tubular body manifold 2.
  • Said manifold, with the plates 18 pivotally connected thereto, is constrained to the horizontal sections 24 of the L-shaped brackets 22 for the insertion of threaded bolts 26 which pass through holes 28 provided in the horizontal sections 24 and engage in corresponding threaded holes 30 formed in the closure plates 4 and 6.
  • Two U-shaped masks 34 are applied to the brackets 22 and are housed in suitable recesses 36 formed in the sleeves 16.
  • The operation of the radiator requires that the hot water crosses the valve 12, flows inside the tube 14 to fill the inside of the tubular manifold 2. In this way the heat propagates by conduction to the V-shaped slabs. As the hot water cools, a forced circulation takes place which causes the cooler water to escape through the annular space 32 between the outer surface of the tube 14 and the inner surface of the threaded sleeve 10 of the valve 12.
  • Thanks to the rotating articulation of the V-shaped slabs it is possible to change their orientation along an arc of 180°.
  • From the aforegoing it is apparent that the radiator according to the invention has numerous advantages including:
    • the possibility of assuming varied spatial arrangements thanks to the possibility of rotating the radiant plate 18 with respect to the tubular manifold 2,
    • the possibility of using the upper edges of the slab as a support for wipes, towels, etc. ,
    • the possibility of hiding towels, bathrobes, hanging from the wall due to the rotation of the slabs up to placing them coplanar to the wall itself,
    • a high thermal efficiency due to the large exchange surface of the V-shaped radiant sheet and the fact that the plate is in direct contact through the sleeve to the manifold .
  • In an alternative embodiment, not shown in the drawings, the heating element is constituted by an electric resistance inserted inside the manifold.
