Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of manifold components, and in particular to a manifold component with high installation reliability. Background Technology

[0002] Underfloor heating is a new type of heating system. It is environmentally friendly and energy-saving, provides uniform heating, is comfortable, clean and aesthetically pleasing, and can be used for both centralized and independent heating. Underfloor heating manifolds are an important component of underfloor heating systems. They are devices used to supply water and collect return water in the underfloor heating system.

[0003] For example, the authorization announcement number "CN209839445U" describes a type of underfloor heating manifold. By forming an annular boss with a mating plane on the surface of the pipe body around the interface hole, and forming a cylindrical flange with threads in the interface hole, the mating plane is separated from the overall surface of the pipe body, reducing the area of ​​the mating plane. This avoids the connection surface of the control valve directly contacting the thin-walled elongated surface of the main pipe, reducing the risk of deformation, ensuring the flatness of the mating plane, increasing the installation thread of the control valve, and improving the connection sealing and installation firmness between the interface hole and the control valve.

[0004] The above-mentioned and existing technologies have the following drawbacks: During disassembly, the nuts of the expansion bolts need to be unscrewed before replacement, which is inconvenient due to the narrow installation distance between the manifold and the wall; During installation, the gaskets need to be re-aligned before the nuts are screwed onto the expansion bolts. This process is very inconvenient because the manifold and the expansion bolts are installed in a very small space. If the installation position of the expansion bolts is not suitable, the expansion bolts need to be reinstalled, making the installation work very difficult. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a manifold assembly with high installation reliability.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Design a highly reliable manifold assembly, comprising a first manifold body and a second manifold body. A wall is provided behind the first and second manifold bodies. First mounting blocks are provided on both sides of the first manifold body, and second mounting blocks are provided on both sides of the second manifold body. Strip-shaped through holes are provided on the surface of the first and second mounting blocks. A first connecting block is provided between adjacent first and second mounting blocks. Adjacent first and second mounting blocks are not on the same vertical plane. Multiple mounting screws are provided on the front surface of the wall, and each mounting screw corresponds to a strip-shaped through hole. A first limiting block is provided at the front of each mounting screw. The mounting screws pass through the strip-shaped through holes and are threadedly connected to mounting nuts.

[0008] Preferably, the surfaces of the first and second manifold pipe bodies are each provided with two annular grooves, and the inner walls of the plurality of annular grooves are provided with fixing devices. The fixing devices include two third mounting blocks, a fourth mounting block, and a second limiting block. One end of the two third mounting blocks on the first manifold pipe body is connected to the first mounting block, and one end of the two third mounting blocks on the second manifold pipe body is connected to the second mounting block. The second limiting block is disposed between the two third mounting blocks, and the fourth mounting block is bolted to both of the two third mounting blocks by bolt assemblies.

[0009] Preferably, two first elastic rubber pads are provided between the inner wall of the annular groove and the fixing device.

[0010] Preferably, a second elastic rubber pad is provided between the first mounting block and the second mounting block and the mounting nut, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, each of the mounting screws has a threaded anti-collision nut at its front end.

[0012] Preferably, a second connecting block is provided between the two first connecting blocks. Both ends of the front surface of the first manifold body are provided with first scale protrusions on the same horizontal line. The front surfaces of the two first mounting blocks are provided with multiple equally spaced second scale protrusions. The multiple second scale protrusions on the left side correspond one-to-one with the multiple second scale protrusions on the right side and are on the same horizontal line. Both ends of the front surface of the second manifold body are provided with third scale protrusions on the same horizontal line. The front surfaces of the two second mounting blocks are provided with multiple equally spaced fourth scale protrusions. The multiple fourth scale protrusions on the left side correspond one-to-one with the multiple fourth scale protrusions on the right side and are on the same horizontal line.

[0013] The present invention proposes a highly reliable manifold assembly with the following advantages: During disassembly, by loosening and removing the mounting nuts, the first and second mounting blocks can be removed, and subsequently, the first and second manifold bodies can be removed. This eliminates the need to operate within the confined space between the manifold and the wall, facilitating disassembly. During installation, by passing the mounting screw through the slotted hole, adjusting the first and second manifold bodies to the appropriate positions, and then tightening the mounting nuts, the manifold installation is completed. This process does not require removing the mounting screw, making the installation work very labor-saving. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Reference Figure 1-4A highly reliable manifold assembly includes a first manifold body 1 and a second manifold body 2. A wall 3 is located behind both the first and second manifold bodies 1 and 2. First mounting blocks 4 are located on both sides of the first manifold body 1, and second mounting blocks 5 are located on both sides of the second manifold body 2. Both mounting blocks 4 and 5 have strip-shaped through holes 6 on their surfaces, facilitating adjustment of the vertical position of the first and second manifold bodies 1 and 2. First connecting blocks 7 are provided between adjacent first mounting blocks 4 and 5, forming a unified structure and enhancing the stability of the manifold. Adjacent first mounting blocks 4 and 5 are not on the same vertical plane, facilitating the installation of inlet and outlet pipes. The front surface of the wall 3 is provided with multiple mounting screws 8, each corresponding to a strip-shaped through hole 6. Each mounting screw 8 has a first limiting block 9 at its front end, which serves to abut against the first mounting block 4 and the second mounting block 5. The mounting screw 8 passes through the strip-shaped through hole 6 and is threadedly connected to a mounting nut 10.

[0021] The surfaces of both the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2 are provided with two annular grooves 11, which serve to limit the positioning of the fixing devices. The inner walls of the multiple annular grooves 11 are each provided with a fixing device, which includes two third mounting blocks 12, a fourth mounting block 13, and a second limiting block 14. One end of each of the two third mounting blocks 12 on the first manifold body 1 is connected to the first mounting block 4, and one end of each of the two third mounting blocks 12 on the second manifold body 2 is connected to the second mounting block 5. The second limiting block 14 is positioned between the two third mounting blocks 12, and the fourth mounting block 13 is bolted to both third mounting blocks 12 using bolt assemblies 15.

[0022] Two first elastic rubber pads 16 are provided between the inner wall of the annular groove 11 and the fixing device. The first elastic rubber pads 16 absorb and reflect vibration energy, thereby achieving the effect of shock absorption.

[0023] A second elastic rubber pad 17 is provided between the first mounting block 4 and the second mounting block 5 and the mounting nut 10, respectively. The second elastic rubber pad 17 absorbs and reflects vibration energy, thereby achieving a shock absorption effect.

[0024] Each of the multiple mounting screws 8 has a threaded anti-collision nut 18 at its front end. The anti-collision nut 18 is provided to prevent workers from bumping their hands during operation.

[0025] A second connecting block 19 is provided between the two first connecting blocks 7. The second connecting block 19 increases the stability of the manifold and also facilitates the adjustment of the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2 to be horizontal. The front surface of the first manifold body 1 has first scale protrusions 20 on the same horizontal line at both ends. The front surfaces of the two first mounting blocks 4 have multiple equally spaced second scale protrusions 21. The multiple second scale protrusions 21 on the left side correspond one-to-one with the multiple second scale protrusions 21 on the right side and are on the same horizontal line. The front surface of the second manifold body 2 has third scale protrusions 22 on the same horizontal line at both ends. The front surfaces of the two second mounting blocks 5 have multiple equally spaced fourth scale protrusions 23. The multiple fourth scale protrusions 23 on the left side correspond one-to-one with the multiple fourth scale protrusions 23 on the right side and are on the same horizontal line. During installation, first place the first mounting block 4 and the second mounting block 5 in a horizontal and vertical position. Then, by aligning the first scale protrusion 20 with the second scale protrusion 21 and the third scale protrusion 22 with the fourth scale protrusion 23, the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2 can be placed horizontally.

[0026] Working principle: During disassembly, first unscrew the anti-collision nut 18, then loosen the mounting nut 10 and remove it. This allows you to remove the first mounting block 4 and the second mounting block 5, and then remove the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2. Next, loosen the bolt assembly 15 to separate the third mounting block 12 and the fourth mounting block 13, and then remove the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2, completing the disassembly work. The above process does not require operation in the narrow space between the manifold and the wall 3, which is beneficial for disassembling the manifold. During installation, the third mounting block 12 and the fourth mounting block 13 are placed on the annular groove 11 and fixed with bolt assembly 15. Then, the mounting screw 8 is passed through the strip-shaped through hole 6, and the first manifold body 1 and the second manifold body 2 are adjusted to the appropriate position. Then, the second elastic rubber pad 17 is installed, the mounting nut 10 is tightened, and finally the anti-collision nut 18 is installed to complete the installation of the manifold. This process does not require the removal of the mounting screw 8, and the installation work is very labor-saving.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
