Definitions
- the present invention relates to a radiator and an intermediate connection piece which is used for connecting the radiator grid and lateral covers thereof and which provides advantages in terms of appearance and application.
- Radiators essentially comprise lateral panels; lateral covers which connect said lateral panels to each other and which accommodate the inlet and outlet holes of water lines; grids which are positioned so as to cover said lateral covers and lateral panels.
- Grids can be manufactured so that the edges thereof form a closed form. In such a case, for each different grid, a separate mould may have to be formed and separate removal-fixation steels may be required. All of these cases lead to additional labor and increase production costs. Moreover, closed grid production leads to more sheet consumption when compared with open grid production and this leads to an increase in production costs.
- Grids can be produced so that the edges thereof are open.
- the lateral covers are placed by being closed onto the open edges of the grid.
- the radiators, produced in this manner are insufficient in terms of aesthetic appearance when compared with the radiators which have grids produced in closed form.
- the lateral covers are produced in a closed form, there are additional labor costs and production costs resulting from extra sheet usage.
- connection pieces which are the subject of the patent EP 0863370 , can be used.
- an additional connection piece which is used for joining the grid and lateral covers, is placed in a snap-fit manner inside the grid and inside the lateral covers.
- the corner part of said connection member forms an open form, and in order to cover said opening, a corner member is placed to the opening.
- Said connection piece necessitates the extending of the dimension of the radiator.
- the corner member used forms an additional production step and thereby it can affect the production costs.
- the present invention relates to a radiator with an intermediate connection piece which provides the grid and the lateral covers to be produced using the roll forming method and at the same time which provides an aesthetical appearance to the radiator obtained, in order to eliminate the abovementioned problems and to bring new advantages to the related technical field.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide a radiator intermediate connection piece which is used in the joining of the grid and of the lateral covers.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a radiator where the grid and the lateral covers are produced using the roll forming method, in order to decrease the production costs.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a one-piece radiator intermediate connection piece which is embodied in an uninterrupted manner and without elevation, in order to provide an aesthetical appearance particularly in the grid part of the radiator.
