Description

Technology area

The present invention relates, in general, to equipment for equipping baths and saunas, and in particular to the production of panels intended for facing heating devices, for example, the outer surfaces of stoves and furnaces for baths and saunas, fireplaces. The design of the device simplifies the assembly process of the heating device cladding, ensures uniform heat distribution and the ability to use various types of cladding.

It is known that the outer surfaces of metal heating devices quickly heat up during operation, but they also quickly give off heat, while the outer surfaces also become very hot and emit hard infrared radiation that is dangerous to human health. For safety and to improve the heat-conducting and / or decorative properties of the heating device, a variety of facing materials are used, for example, brick, tile, facing stone. Such a surface does not heat up to high temperatures, heated facing materials release thermal energy slowly, and the "soft" heat from the heating device is more evenly distributed throughout the room.

However, when working, for example, with bricks, you must have certain skills and observe fire safety rules. It is necessary to leave a gap between the brick and the wall of the heating device, since, firstly, the brick will not adhere to the solution on its walls due to the linear expansion of the metal when heated, and secondly, in the absence of a gap, the heating device will overheat, which shortens its life service. Sometimes the brick is additionally tiled, which leads to multi-stage work.

Currently, for cladding heating devices, a variety of blocks or cladding panels with or without decorative trim are often used, which greatly simplify installation and the quality of work. However, there are a number of problems associated with the use of such cladding devices.

State of the art

From the prior art, there is a device called "Fireplace cladding" (patent for utility model RU11592), which is a frame in the form of separate blocks that are fastened together, has decorative details, for example, marble tiles, the details of the frame cladding are interconnected, for example, using glue, with the formation of panels, the panels are attached to the corresponding blocks and made removable. This design requires the use of a special glue that can withstand high-temperature heating, and is not intended for use in lining furnaces and furnaces, where the heating temperature is significantly higher than in fireplaces, and reduces the thermal conductivity of the lining.

Known device "Fireplace from prefabricated blocks and method of its assembly" (patent for invention RU2645020), made of prefabricated blocks made of refractory concrete, installed without mortar and made with contact surfaces that ensure the connection of the blocks with each other with form-fit using a connection thorn-groove type. The assembly process of the device is quite laborious, and only one facing material is used as a facing material - concrete.

Known device "Facing a fireplace" (patent for a useful model RU95800), which can be used for facing bath and heating stoves, includes a base, collapsible panels: side and docking front and rear, and an upper cover, where the upper and lower end surfaces of the side the panels are made with an internal open longitudinal cavity in the form of a U-shaped groove, and the upper and lower end surfaces of the docking front and rear panels are made with longitudinal cavities in the form of L-shaped grooves, the device is equipped with a plastic tape, for example, made of aluminum, installed in the grooves, the ends of the tape are bent and installed with the possibility of pressing in the L-shaped grooves towards the bend with the formation of a "lock". However, the kinking of the ends of the plastic strips reduces heat transfer between the upward currents of warm-hot air heated by the walls of the fireplace and the cladding. The "lock" serves as a concentrator of internal stresses in the cladding panels due to the point overheating of one part of the panel weakened by the groove in relation to the entire mass of this panel.

The closest analogue of the invention, taken as a prototype, is the "Fireplace Facing" device (utility model patent RU138021), a modified design of the "Fireplace Facing" device (utility model patent RU95800), in which the ends of the plastic tapes in the L-shaped channels are brought out to the panel wall to the exit of the L-shaped channel after its bending and, thus, the "locks" are located on the surface of one of the panels to be connected, which ensures uniform heating of the entire plastic tape along the connection of the panels to each other and the panel surface and increases their service life. However, this does not completely solve the problem of reducing heat transfer between the ascending currents of warm-hot air heated by the walls of the fireplace and the cladding, and the "lock" also serves as a concentrator of internal stresses in the cladding panels. The cladding of the fireplace can be made, for example, of soapstone. In this case, the process of assembling the device becomes quite laborious, requires significant precision in the manufacture of panels to ensure the joining of the grooves and the stage-by-stage assembly of panels in height using plastic tapes.

The technical problem, the solution of which is proposed in the present invention, is to create a device, the design of which simplifies the process of assembling the lining of the heating device, provides a uniform heat distribution and the ability to use various types of lining.

The technical result is to improve the technical and technological characteristics of the device.

Disclosure of the essence of the invention

The device is a metal panel, for example, rectangular in shape, with holes evenly distributed over the entire surface of the panel, for example, in the form of horizontally located longitudinally elongated oval holes, which compensate for the linear expansion of the metal when the heating device is heated and uniform heat transfer from the furnace to the facing material ... From the conventionally front side of the panel, strips of reinforcing mesh are welded, located, for example, horizontally and vertically, preferably in a checkerboard pattern and evenly distributed over the surface of the panel. The meshes have two functions: they function as a masonry mesh for facing material such as bricks, tiles, facing stone, and as a radiator that transfers thermal energy from the facing panel to the facing material. In the lower part of the front surface of the panel there is a flange that acts as a supporting surface.

From the conventionally inner side of the panel, at some distance from its edges, vertically located corners are welded, which are made either with narrow vertical grooves, for example, three, at some distance from each other and the number of which depends on the height of the panel, or with hooks corresponding to the number of grooves, for attaching panels to each other when forming the facing of the heating device. Between the vertical corners, a horizontal corner can be welded, approximately in the middle, to provide additional rigidity to the structure and move the finished panels. The upper protruding edge of the vertical corners is cut off at an acute angle and parallel to the cut between the vertical corners, another horizontal corner is welded with the apex outward, which allows, if necessary, after assembling the heating device lining, to install on top of these horizontal corners using them as a support, a bowl for placing heat storage elements heaters.

The cladding material is fixed on the panels directly at the production site prior to the assembly of the cladding of the heating device at the installation site. Holes can be made in the panel for the combustion channel, to remove heat outside through pipes to other rooms, for plugs and other purposes. The design of the panels ensures uniform heating of the cladding material, which evenly distributes "soft" heat throughout the room and shields the hard infrared radiation that emanates from the walls of the firebox.
