  According to this embodiment, it is possible to smoothly insert the joint 40 and the heat radiating pipe 7 not having the E ring 51 and the clip 50 into the thin insertion hole 23 of the through panel 20. By disposing the heat radiating tube 7 in the insertion hole 23 of the through panel 20, the heat radiating tube 7 can be kept parallel. Further, both ends of the heat radiating tube 7 can be easily connected to the headers 5 and 6. Since the lower end of the through panel 20 is in contact with the support material 6r, the through panel 20 does not move when the heat radiating tube 7 is inserted into the insertion hole 23, and the operation can be easily performed.

  In order to stand the panel radiator 3 in a partition between the floor 1 and the ceiling 2, the frame 4 including the headers 5 and 6, the through panel 20, the heat radiating pipe 7, the adjuster bolt 8, and the coil spring 10 is installed in the room panel. Stand up at the planned location of the radiator. In addition, it is preferable to interpose a fixed seat 9 or packing made of rubber, synthetic resin or the like between the lower adjuster bolt 8 and the floor 1 and between the upper adjuster bolt 8 and the ceiling 2.

In this embodiment, the cover 5 is concealed by the cover 16 from the header 5 to the upper end portion of the through panel 20, and the cover 17 is concealed by the cover 17 from the lower header 6 to the lower end portion of the through panel 20. Moreover, since the heat radiating tube 7 is covered with the translucent through panel 20, the aesthetic appearance is excellent and a unique aesthetic appearance is imparted.

  Heat is radiated from both sides of the panel radiator 3 by circulating hot water through the heat radiating pipe 7 of the panel radiator 3. Since the through panel 20 is translucent, the far infrared rays from the heat radiating tube 7 are efficiently emitted into the room.

  When the hot water is passed, the heat radiating pipe 7 is thermally expanded and extended as shown in FIG. 4, and when the hot water water is stopped, the heat radiating pipe 7 is contracted and shortened as shown in FIG. Expansion and contraction of the heat radiating tube 7 is absorbed by the spring 10. In this embodiment, the springs 10 that support both ends of the upper header 5 are housed in the grooves 4b and 4d, respectively, so that the upper header 5 is prevented from swinging. In addition, one heat radiating tube 7 is inserted through one insertion hole 23, and each heat radiating tube 7 can be kept in a parallel alignment state even if the heat radiating tube 7 is extended by the heat of hot water.

  In this embodiment, since the lower header 6 is in a fixed state, stress due to thermal expansion of the heat radiating pipe 7 is not applied to the connection portion between the lower header 6 and the hot water circulation pipes 12 and 13, and the connection portion Good durability.

  The above-described embodiment is an example of the present invention, and the present invention may be other than illustrated. For example, the joint 40 may be attached to the upper end of the heat radiating pipe 7, the union joint portion 6 a may be provided in the upper header 5, and the nozzle-like connection portion 5 a may be provided in the lower header 6.

  Further, the number of the heat radiating pipes 7 may be other than illustrated. A cross member different from the lower header 6 may be installed between the lower ends of the vertical members 4A and 4A, the lower header 6 may be attached to the cross member, and the support member may be erected upward from the cross member.
