Benefits of technology

[0007]The technical aim of the present invention is therefore to provide a radiator of highly flexible use by which the stated drawbacks of the known art are eliminated.
[0008]Within the scope of this technical aim, an object of the invention is to provide a radiator which can be cleaned easily and thoroughly, including its rear region, in the case of both small-dimension and large-dimension radiators.
[0009]Another object of the invention is to provide a radiator which also enables the wall behind the radiator to be cleaned easily and thoroughly, in the case of both small-dimension and large-dimension radiators.
[0010]A further object of the invention is to provide a radiator by which the installation, checking and maintenance operations are simplified and accelerated.

Problems solved by technology

However, radiators are known structures which because of their complexity and the presence of roughness, represent a dust accumulation point.
It is known to be extremely difficult to clean radiators (in particular their rear) and those wall regions behind the radiators, and is in some cases impossible (particularly for very large radiators).
A further drawback is caused by the difficulties encountered by the usual installation, checking and maintenance operations, as these have to be carried out with the radiators mounted, usually in very small and difficulty accessible spaces.

first embodiment

[0033]In a first embodiment, the lock 21 comprises a threaded element or socket head screw screwable into a threaded hole of the seat 19 such as to cause interference and lock the hook 19.

second embodiment

[0034]In a second embodiment, the lock 21 comprises a magnet mounted on the base of the seat 19 to retain the hook 18.

[0035]The radiator 1 advantageously presents conduits 25 for feeding and discharging thermovector fluid (water of the heating plant), these consisting of flexible hoses.

[0036]The flexible hoses 25 have that end 26 connected to the radiator 1 and / or that end 27 connectable to the residential heating plant articulated or rotatable preferably through 360°.

[0037]This enables the ends of the flexible hoses to rotate and enables the flexible hoses themselves to move when the radiator is brought from the working position to the maintenance position and vice versa (in practice by opening or closing the radiator in the manner of a book).

[0038]In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 the radiator is of the radiant plate type and comprises a plate forming the radiant element 2 and provided with at least one groove, into the interior of which a tube 28 is inserted containing a thermove...

Abstract

The radiator of highly flexible use comprising a radiant element provided with supports for its connection to a wall. The supports comprise at least one hinge to support the radiant element and to enable it to be rotated between a working position and a maintenance position.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001]The present invention relates to a radiator of highly flexible use.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Buildings are usually heated by radiators which typically comprise radiant elements provided with one or more heating conduits.DISCUSSION OF THE RELATED ART[0003]The conduits receive hot water from the heating plant of a building; the hot water circulates through the conduits to heat the radiant elements, which then heat the environment in which they are installed.[0004]However, radiators are known structures which because of their complexity and the presence of roughness, represent a dust accumulation point.[0005]It is known to be extremely difficult to clean radiators (in particular their rear) and those wall regions behind the radiators, and is in some cases impossible (particularly for very large radiators).[0006]A further drawback is caused by the difficulties encountered by the usual installation, checking and maintenance operations, as these have to...
