Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for supporting a heating body, of the type comprising an element of insulating material intended to be fixed to the bodywork of a convector and at least one metal heater support member.
  • the document FR 2 767 911 describes a heating element support, in particular for electric convector, comprising at least two metal parts attached to the body of the convector via insulating material parts.
  • Each metal piece of elongate shape comprises, transversely, at least one zone narrowed separated by bulging areas.
  • Each narrowed area of each room metal is lodged in a recess made in the longitudinal part of the heater.
  • This device generally gives satisfaction, but has the disadvantage to require many supports to fix the heating body in the convector electric.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy the disadvantages of the known technique, by proposing a new device for supporting the heating body, allowing a easy and economical installation of the heating element in the electric convector and reducing the risk of noise associated with heating and expansion differential of the heating element.
  • the subject of the invention is a device for supporting a heating body, of the type comprising an element of insulating material intended to be fixed to the bodywork of the convector and at least one metal member for heating body support, characterized in that the metallic support member has two ends symmetrical heating element snap-on and snap-in conformation on said element made of insulating material.
  • a convector body C carries an element 1 in insulating material, on which is snapped a metal support member 2.
  • the metallic support member 2 comprises two symmetrical ends 2a snap in the bases 3a of the fins 3 of a body comprising an element shielded heater and two fins 3.
  • Each end 2a of the metal member 2 comprises an elastic loop engaged in a corresponding orifice made each base 3a of fins 3.
  • the end of the metal member 2 opposite the ends 2a has a 2b snap conformation on the element 1 of insulating material.
  • the element 1 made of insulating material has a conformation in square, with a wing 1a assembled by riveting to the bodywork C of the convector and a lower part 1b having a snap and guide conformation vertical.
  • the invention thus provides the advantage of reducing the number of parts for the assembly of the heating elements, an improvement of the ergonomics, a saving mounting costs, and reducing noise due to expansion, reasons for the asymmetry of the assembly in the bodywork.
  • a metal support member 2 is made by deformation of a stainless steel spring wire.
  • the wire is bent to present the snap ends 2a in shape open eyelets with end segments forming an angle A of about 120 ° with the circular part of each eyelet 2a.
  • the ends 2a have a narrowed dimension corresponding to the height of the holes made in the bases 3a fins 3 of the heating body.
  • the orifices of the heating body have an elongated conformation in the horizontal direction, so as to allow an insertion with play in the horizontal direction and a nip after rotation of a quarter turn in the vertical direction corresponding to the assembly of Figures 1 and 2.
  • the lower part 2b snap on an element 1 made of insulating material substantially U-shaped with two guided lateral branches by sliding and a lower branch intended to engage with a part an element 1 of insulating material for final locking.
  • the plane of the U-shaped conformation corresponding to the snap-in end 2b is offset vertically with respect to the plane corresponding to the two latching ends 2a in the holes of the bases 3a fins 3 of the heating body.
  • This vertical offset results from a partial twist median of the metallic support member 2, this twist of the elastic thread having as a function of increasing rigidity and inertia of the device while allowing a relative rotation in torsion and bending of the ends 2a with respect to the conformation 2b in U.
  • an element 1 made of insulating material has a wing 1a intended to be assembled by riveting to a convector body.
  • the lower part 1b of the element 1 made of insulating material has two channels 4 and 5 for guiding the vertical branches of the locking conformation 2b of the member 2 and a detent tongue 6 for locking the branch lower of the conformation 2b in U.
  • the element made of insulating material is preferably manufactured by injection of a synthetic material, of the plastic material heat-resistant material, preferably polyamide.
  • the thermal expansions occurring at the level of the fixing of the heating element are compensated by symmetrical mounting, while that thermal expansions likely to be produced by radiation to the heads Fastening rivets to the bodywork are prevented by the presence of the tab 8 forming a screen.
  • the stiffening ribs of the insulating element 1 ensure a holding in the time and absence of vibrations transmitted by the material of the insulating element, while the slight expansions are damped by the snap-in tongue 6. contact of the lower cross member of the U-shaped snap-in conformation, acting on the way of a lever to maintain the heating body integral with the ends 2a of the support member 2.
