Description
[0001] The subject of invention is the heater, especially for
central heating. There are known heaters for central heating
systems, which are build from segments; called ribs, joined into
sets (by hydraulic connectors) conditioned by thermal power
required for every room. The heating agent is being distributed to
and from the heater in a liquid state. In most cases the inlet of
the heating agent is located in the upper part of the heater and
the outlet in the lower part. Such solution is used in
gravitational systems. There are, also known heaters with inlet and
outlet of the the heating agent located in the lower part. In the
newest technical solutions the inlet and outlet of the heating
agent are located in the floor. It is dictated by aesthetics. There
are also known tabular heaters created by heating together two
profiled half trunks/bodies.
[0002] From the polish patent's description No. 180338 there is
known heater for central heating consisted of the casing closed by
frontal wall and heating inset placed inside. The housing, cuboid
in shape made by permanent connection between rear wall, air
exhaust and side walls passing in the frontal part into batten with
attachments for mounting the frontal wall. Heating inset created by
sets consisting of two pipes connected by arch, where the sets are
fixed one above the other.
[0003] From the publication WO96/28696 is known heating device with
a tubular heater implemented with parallel manifolds connected with
stretched between them parallel heating pipes as well as inlet and
outlet. In this solution, the inlet and outlet is protected by a
cover, which its external dimensions are essentially the same as
the heater measured along the axle, parallel to the heating pipes,
whereas the rims of the cover are bended towards the depth of the
heater, creating side covers.
[0004] Heater, especially for central heating fitted with heating
elements, consists of segments, according to invention
characterized by the fact, that is being determined by at least one
segment which in side-view resembles letter "L" in upside-down
position and each segment is created from the housing, where
heating element is fixed, at the same time the housing improvingly
consists of parietal part as well as upper part. Such configuration
makes it applicable as heater as well as window-sill. The parietal
part of the housing consists of a full partition, which adjoins to
the wall of the room, while the upper part of the housing is
implemented with slits, improvingly rectangular (channels) in
shape. The slits simplify heat extraction from within the housing.
Parietal parts of the housing which determine the heater are
equipped with centred openings and tightly connected with
each-other. The invention anticipates such solution, that between
sections there is a distance element which acts as a heat
accumulator as well as decorative detail. The heating element is a
pipe coil, which is formed by straight essentially horizontal
segments and straight essentially vertical segments connected by
couplers, whereas the straight essentially vertical segments are
fitted with radiators with transverse outline similar to the letter
"T". The straight essentially horizontal segments are fitted with
radiators in form of a plate or in form of spiral. Usage of
radiators increases the surface of heat exchange. It is improving
when the parietal part of the housing is made of material with low
thermal conductivity whereas the upper part of the housing is made
of material with high thermal conductivity. Both, the upper part
and the parietal part starting from the end which adjoins to the
window is equipped with at least one division. These divisions,
after assembly of parietal part with upper part will create
isolation chambers.
[0005] The heating element could be also electrical heating cable,
which can be installed either in the housing or in the pipe
coil.
[0006] According to the invention the essential effect of this
solution is the possibility to install the heater inside a window
recess, therefore in a place with the highest inflow of cold air to
the room.
[0007] The subject of invention is being shown on the drawing,
where
[0008] FIG. 1--shows perspective view of the heater with
cutaway,
[0009] FIG. 2--view of the heater with heating element partially
opened,
[0010] FIG. 3--section parallel to the pipe coil,
[0011] FIG. 4--cross-section of vertical part of the heater,
[0012] FIG. 5--perspective view of upper part of the housing, with
transition between the vertical and horizontal part has the arch
shape,
[0013] FIG. 6--bottom view of the heater's section.
[0014] The heater 1 consists of sections structured from the
parietal part 2 as well as upper part 3 in form of shield where the
heating element is placed. The heating element is a pipe coil
created by straight segments connected by couplers. The pipe coil
is connected with central heating through a stub pipe inlet 4 as
well as stub pipe outlet 5 of the heating agent. The upper,
essentially horizontal part of segment is equipped with slits 6
rectangular in shape channels, and vertical surface of segment is
equipped with slits 7. The vertical fragment of parietal part is
equipped with pods 8 for fixation of vertical fragments of pipe
coil. In the horizontal surface of the parietal part 2 of the
housing there are installed bearers 9 with radially fixed
selections 10. The horizontal fragments of pipe coil 16 are
installed in these selections. Vertical parts 17 of pipe coil are
equipped with radiators 18 with transverse outline similar to
letter "T". Whereas horizontal parts of pipe coil are equipped with
radiators 15, which have shape similar to plates. These radiators
increase the surface of heat exchange. The vertical fragment of
segment in a parietal part 2 as well as upper part 3 create
isolation chambers 14. Segments are connected together by parietal
parts 2 equipped with openings 12 which centre position of
segments. In the solution presented on FIG. 5 the transition
between the horizontal part and vertical part has a curved outline
20 and curved groove 21.
[0015] The side partitions of segments in the lower part are
shorter from the frontal partitions. The frontal partitions of
parietal part 2 as well as upper part 3 of the heater create
channel 22 where elements of pipe coil are located. The frontal
partition of upper part 3 makes a cover for inlets and outlets of
heating agent.
