SK279268B6 - Heatable wall - Google Patents

Abstract

A heatable wall is made from stones (1) each of which has a longitudinal groove (2) in the face nearer the stone immediately above it. A thermal conductor (4) is located in the groove. The depth of the longitudinal groove (2) is greater than the height of the thermal conductor (4). The stone (1) immediately above has a shallow longitudinal groove (3) opposite the deep longitudinal groove (2) in the stone (1) below.

Description

Technical field

The invention relates to a tempering wall made of bricks, the bricks on their side facing the brick lying above it having a deep longitudinal groove in which the thermal conductor lies.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the known wall heating of this type, the bricks are provided on both their upper and lower sides with a central longitudinal groove in which a tubular thermal conductor is inserted, acting as a separate tongue and connecting the two bricks lying one above the other. Such special wall heating systems have proven to be the best, because on the one hand the most pleasant effect of heat is obtained and on the other hand the use of thermal conductors as special lips as structural elements makes it easy to build the wall.

The object of the invention is to further improve the known walls in such a way that the heat transfer from the thermal conductors to the bricks is increased so as not to burden the bracing of the bricks.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This task is accomplished by a tempering wall constructed of bricks, the bricks on their side facing the brick facing above having a longitudinal longitudinal groove in which the thermal conductor lies according to the invention, which is based on the longitudinal longitudinal groove having a depth greater than height. The thermal conductor and the brick arranged above it is provided with a shallow longitudinal groove opposite the deep longitudinal groove of the lower brick.

Measurements carried out in many experiments have shown that the embodiment of the invention has improved heat transfer over the known wall heating, apparently related to the fact that the thermal conductor in the brick is completely embedded and not partially protruding into the gap between the two bricks.

However, the thermal conductor continues to act, albeit indirectly, as a special tongue, since the mortar or filler material surrounding the thermal conductor in the longitudinal groove is automatically slightly higher and therefore extends into the shallow longitudinal groove above the bricks lying there.

In the present description, the term "thermal conductor" includes both a conductor for heating and a conductor for cooling the room. It is also possible to supply cooling water for cooling the room, for example by means of a thermal conductor in the form of a pipe. However, the wall surface temperature must not fall below the dew point of the air, as otherwise moisture may condense on the wall. The rate of wall cooling is therefore controlled by the appropriate temperature and humidity conditions. However, if the wall is appropriately formed, the precipitated moisture could also accumulate in containers arranged along the wall.

A further improvement of the use of the tempering wall according to the invention is achieved by providing the bricks with an installation channel extending between the deep longitudinal groove and the shallow longitudinal groove. Thus, the wall can be used in a simple way not only to temper the room, but also to lay an electrical or sanitary installation.

It has proven to be particularly advantageous if the thermal conductors embedded in the deep longitudinal grooves of the brick run serpentine and a bending template is provided for reversing the thermal conductors in the opposite direction, through which the thermal conductor lying in the peripheral groove of the template is bent and fastened by a clip.

The brick forming the wall component according to the invention is cuboid and has longitudinal grooves of different depths on both longitudinal narrow sides thereof.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The invention is further described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which: FIG. 1 is a schematic sectional view of a wall according to the invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged scale of a brick of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

According to FIG. 2, a rectangular brick 1 is provided on its one longitudinal narrow side with a deep longitudinal groove 2 and on its opposite longitudinal narrow side with a shallow groove 3. In the longitudinal longitudinal groove 2 a thermal conductor 4, in the exemplary tubular embodiment, is inserted. An installation duct 5 is provided between the two longitudinal grooves 2 and 3.

The tempering wall of FIG. 1 is constructed from the bricks 1 of FIG. 2. As can be seen, the thermal conductors 4 run serpentine in the deep longitudinal grooves 2 of the bricks 1, and a bending template 6 is provided for reversing the thermal conductor 4 in the opposite direction, in which the thermal conductor 4 is mounted in the peripheral groove 7 and fastened by a clip 8. The bends with the template 6 may be walled in U-shaped hollow bricks or lined with wooden strips. The templates 6 can be made, for example, of wood or plastic.

Thermal conductors 4, for example of plastic or copper tubes, are covered with mortar during the construction of the tempering wall in the deep longitudinal groove 2. In the region of the deep longitudinal grooves 2, there are small elevations which, when a further upper brick 1 is inserted, interfere with its shallow longitudinal groove 3. In this simple manner a secure connection of the individual bricks 1 in the tempering wall is achieved.

FIG. 1 it is further evident that the heating or cooling water enters the wall through the inlet 9 and exits through the outlet 10. The temperature control is effected by the thermostat 11, the venting through the venting bend 12. If the tempering wall is used as a cooling wall,

Many variations are possible within the scope of the invention. The thermal conductor 4 would not have to be a tube, an electric thermal conductor could also be used. Ceramic material with good thermal conductivity and heat storage capability is preferably used as the brick material. However, other materials may also be used.
