Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un sèche-serviettes à barres supports serviettes multiples autochauffantes.The present invention relates to a heated towel rail with multiple self-heating towel bars.

D'une manière générale, les radiateurs appelés sèche-serviettes comprennent au moins une barre support-serviettes horizontale, et plus généralement plusieurs barres étagées en hauteur, et dans lesquelles est établie une circulation de fluide caloporteur chaud, notamment de l'eau, de l'air ou de l'huile thermique.In general, the radiators known as towel rails comprise at least one horizontal towel bar, and more generally several bars staggered in height, and in which is established a circulation of hot heat transfer fluid, including water, air or thermal oil.

Ce fluide circule dans les barres chauffantes en circuit fermé, à partir d'un caisson de ventilation extérieur lorsqu'il s'agit d'air, ou par thermo-siphon lorsqu'il s'agit d'eau ou d'huile chauffé par exemple par thermoplongeur, lesdites barres étant généralement raccordées à leurs extrémités à des montants creux acheminant le fluide caloporteur auxdites barres.This fluid circulates in the heating bars in closed circuit, from an outside ventilation box when it is about air, or by thermo-siphon when it is about water or oil heated by example by immersion heater, said bars being generally connected at their ends to the hollow amounts conveying the heat transfer fluid to said bars.

Ces dispositifs présentent un certain nombre d'inconvénients, en particulier des risques de fuites du fluide caloporteur et des bruits de circulation de celui-ci.These devices have a certain number of drawbacks, in particular risks of leakage of the heat transfer fluid and circulation noises thereof.

La présente invention vise précisément à pallier ces inconvénients.The present invention aims precisely to overcome these disadvantages.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un radiateur sèche-serviettes à barres autochauffantes, du type comprenant une pluralité de barres porte-serviettes horizontales fixées à leurs extrémités à deux montants verticaux caractérisé en ce que chaque barre est formée d'un tube dans lequel est disposé un système chauffant constitué d'un ou plusieurs cordonnets isolés électriquement renfermant une résistance électrique chauffante ou d'une ou plusieurs cartouches chauffantes, ledit système chauffant étant relié à un boîtier de commande-régulation par un réseau disposé dans l'un et/ou l'autre des montants.To this end, the subject of the invention is a self-heating bar towel radiator, of the type comprising a plurality of horizontal towel bars fixed at their ends to two vertical uprights, characterized in that each bar is formed of a tube in which is disposed a heating system consisting of one or more electrically insulated cords enclosing an electric heating resistor or one or more heating cartridges, said heating system being connected to a control-regulating box by a network arranged in one and / or the other of the amounts.

Avantageusement le circuit électrique est constitué d'un cordonnet unique disposé dans l'un des montants et formant une boucle dans chaque barre ou par plusieurs groupements de cordonnets équipés chacun d'une ou plusieurs sécurités thermiques (ou limiteurs de température).Advantageously, the electrical circuit consists of a single cord arranged in one of the uprights and forming a loop in each bar or by several groups of cords each equipped with one or more thermal safeties (or temperature limiters).

Le circuit électrique peut aussi être constitué de cartouches chauffantes.The electrical circuit may also consist of heating cartridges.

Puisqu'il n'y a aucun risque de fuite de fluide colporteur, le chauffage interne de chaque barre porte-serviettes étant assuré "à sec" par la résistance électrique interne à la barre, cette dernière, qui peut être un simple tube en métal, cylindrique ou à section oblongue par exemple, peut être facilement fixée à chaque extrémité sur les montants verticaux par simple montage mécanique par exemple clipsage, sertissage, soudage ou vissage.Since there is no risk of leakage peddler fluid, the internal heating of each towel bar is ensured "dry" by the internal resistance to the bar, the latter, which can be a simple metal tube , cylindrical or oblong section for example, can be easily attached to each end on the vertical uprights by simple mechanical assembly for example clipping, crimping, welding or screwing.

Sur la figure 1, on a représenté, vu de face, un radiateur sèche-serviettes comprenant un certain nombre de barres 1 porte-serviettes horizontales fixées entre deux montants verticaux 2.In Figure 1, there is shown, seen from the front, a towel rail radiator comprising a number of horizontal towel bars 1 fixed between two vertical uprights 2.

Conformément à l'invention, chaque barre est constituée d'un tube cylindrique dont les extrémités sont, comme illustré par les figures 2 à 4, serties sur des conduits tubulaires constituant les montants 2.According to the invention, each bar is constituted by a cylindrical tube whose ends are, as illustrated by FIGS. 2 to 4, crimped on tubular ducts constituting the uprights 2.

A cet effet, chaque extrémité de tube 1 est munie d'un bourrelet externe 3 formant butée d'appui pour un sertissage de l'extrémité rabattue 4 du tube au droit d'une ouverture circulaire ménagée dans la paroi de chaque montant 2.For this purpose, each tube end 1 is provided with an external bead 3 forming abutment for crimping the folded end 4 of the tube in line with a circular opening formed in the wall of each upright 2.

Dans le mode de réalisation illustré par les figures 2 à 4, un cordonnet 5 isolé électriquement et contenant une résistance électrique chauffante court tout le long de l'un des montants 2 et, à hauteur de chaque barre 1, fait une boucle 6 sur toute la longueur de la barre.In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4, an electrically insulated cord 5 containing an electrical heating resistor runs along one of the uprights 2 and, at the height of each bar 1, makes a loop 6 on all the length of the bar.

Les extrémités du cordonnet 5 sont reliées à un boîtier 7 de commande et régulation de l'appareil comportant un bouton 8 de réglage de la température ambiante souhaitée, un bouton-poussoir 9 de mise en et hors tension, un bouton 10 de réglage de temporisation. Le réseau du cordonnet 5 est bien entendu équipé d'une ou plusieurs sécurités de surchauffe ou de limitation de température.The ends of the cord 5 are connected to a housing 7 for controlling and regulating the apparatus comprising a button 8 for adjusting the desired room temperature, a push button 9 for turning the power on and off, a timer setting button 10 . The network cord 5 is of course equipped with one or more safety overheating or temperature limitation.

La figure 2 représente un premier mode de fixation des deux brins de la boucle du cordonnet 5 qui sont maintenus de place en place dans chaque barre 1, plaqués par des entretoises 11 contre la paroi de la barre.FIG. 2 represents a first mode of attachment of the two strands of the cord loop 5 which are held in place in place in each bar 1, plated by spacers 11 against the wall of the bar.

Dans la figure 3, le cordonnet 5 est noyé dans un matériau 12 thermiquement conducteur, tel que de la magnésie ou de la silice ou de la résine chargée ou non facilitant le transfert thermique et est maintenu aux extrémités des barres 1 par des bouchons élastiques 13 maintenant à distance les deux brins de la boucle du cordonnet.In FIG. 3, the cord 5 is embedded in a thermally conductive material 12, such as magnesia or silica or filled or non-charged resin that facilitates the thermal transfer, and is held at the ends of the bars 1 by elastic plugs 13 now remotely the two strands of the cord loop.

Dans la figure 4, les deux brins de la boucle du cordonnet 5 sont plaqués contre la paroi de la barre 1 par des barillets 14 en matière isolante enfilés comme des perles.In Figure 4, the two strands of the cord loop 5 are pressed against the wall of the bar 1 by barrels 14 of insulating material threaded like beads.

Dans le mode de réalisation des figures 5 à 7, les barres porte-serviettes 1' ont une section oblongue dont les extrémités sont plaquées sur la face avant de montants 2' de section rectangulaire, à l'aide de bouchons 15 en matière moulée munis de passages 16 pour le cordonnet chauffant 5 qui est disposé en boucle dans chaque barre 1'.In the embodiment of FIGS. 5 to 7, the towel bars 1 'have an oblong section whose ends are pressed onto the front face of uprights 2' of rectangular section, with the aid of plugs 15 of molded material provided with passages 16 for the heating cord 5 which is arranged in a loop in each bar 1 '.

Les figures 8 à 10 illustrent trois modes de fixation des deux brins d'une boucle formée par le cordonnet 5 dans chaque barre.Figures 8 to 10 illustrate three modes of attachment of the two strands of a loop formed by the cord 5 in each bar.

Sur la figure 8, les deux brins 5a, 5b sont plaqués contre la face avant de la barre oblongue 1' par un profilé 17 occupant l'espace interne de la barre sur sensiblement toute sa longueur.In Figure 8, the two strands 5a, 5b are pressed against the front face of the oblong bar 1 'by a profile 17 occupying the inner space of the bar over substantially its entire length.

Sur la figure 9, la barre 1'' est en deux parties clipsées, à savoir une partie 18 formant boîtier avec deux rigoles 19 de réception des brins 5a, 5b et une partie 20 formant couvercle maintenant les brins 5a, 5 dans leur logement 19.In FIG. 9, the bar 1 "is in two clipped parts, namely a part 18 forming a box with two channels 19 for receiving the strands 5a, 5b and a part 20 forming a lid holding the strands 5a, 5 in their housing 19 .

Sur la figure 10, chaque brin 5a, 5b est engagé à force et coincé dans une rigole 21 ménagée à l'intérieur de la barre 1''' en parties haute et basse.In Figure 10, each strand 5a, 5b is engaged by force and wedged in a channel 21 formed inside the bar 1 '' 'in high and low parts.

Bien entendu d'autres modes de fixation des brins des boucles dans les barres horizontales porte-serviettes, qui peuvent avoir toute autre section, sont envisageables sans sortir du champ de l'invention.Of course other ways of fixing the strands of the loops in the horizontal bars towel, which may have any other section, are possible without departing from the scope of the invention.

Il est à noter que le brin de retour du cordonnet 5, après avoir pénétré dans chaque barre à partir d'un même montant peut circuler dans l'autre montant afin de le chauffer également.It should be noted that the return strand of the cord 5, after having entered each bar from the same amount can circulate in the other amount to heat it also.
