Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of underfloor heating technology, specifically relating to a pipe clamping and heat preservation bracket. Background Technology
[0002] With increasing demands for building energy efficiency and comfort, low-temperature floor radiant heating has become the preferred winter heating method for residential buildings, office buildings, hospitals, schools, and other buildings. In the construction of a floor heating system, the insulation layer plays a crucial role in preventing heat loss downwards and improving system energy efficiency. To facilitate rapid on-site installation and ensure a flat and uniform insulation layer, interlocking insulation brackets have been widely adopted in recent years. These brackets are typically prefabricated from high-polymer foam materials into standard panels. The edges of the panels are equipped with interlocking clips, allowing installers to simply align and press adjacent panels to complete large-area installation. This significantly reduces traditional wet work or adhesive fixing processes, shortens the construction cycle, and lowers labor costs.
[0003] However, during the pressing and splicing process of existing interlocking insulation brackets, the clips are prone to damage due to the brittleness of the polymer foam material itself and the stress concentration caused by localized stress. Once the clips fail, gaps will appear between adjacent panels, causing heat to dissipate downwards along the gaps and reducing the insulation effect. At the same time, loose panels may shift during subsequent concrete backfilling and floor decoration layer construction, affecting the flatness and long-term stability of the entire underfloor heating system.
[0004] Therefore, the above problems urgently need to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0005] Purpose of the utility model: In order to overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a pipe clamping insulation bracket, which is easy to install, reduces the breakage rate of the clips, reduces downward heat loss of the underfloor heating system, reduces heat loss at the splicing parts, and improves the energy efficiency of the underfloor heating system.
[0006] Technical Solution: To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a pipe-clamping insulation bracket, comprising a main body layer and a coating layer. The main body layer includes a plate with multiple rows of columns protruding from its surface. The coating layer covers the surface of the plate where the columns are connected. Columns located at the side edges of the plate are designed as semi-columns, with their cut surfaces coplanar with the corresponding sides of the plate. Ribs are formed by protrusions on the plate, connecting adjacent columns. The plate, columns, and ribs are integrally formed. A first connecting step is provided on the side wall of the plate, and a second connecting step is provided on the opposite side of the plate. The first and second connecting steps are abutted together. When two insulation brackets are joined, the first connecting step engages with the second connecting step of the adjacent insulation bracket. This utility model is used for underfloor heating underlayment, where underfloor heating pipes are laid on the plate surface and clamped between the columns. The columns provide restraint and protection for the underfloor heating pipes, preventing displacement and deformation under pressure. The column spacing is set according to the diameter of the underfloor heating pipes. The reinforcing ribs elevate the water pipes, creating an air gap between the pipes and the insulation layer. This air layer, combined with the insulation layer, reduces downward heat loss and improves thermal efficiency. During installation, the first and second connecting steps interlock to connect adjacent insulation brackets, improving connection convenience, extending the heat flow path, enhancing thermal resistance, reducing heat loss, and improving the energy efficiency of the underfloor heating system. Furthermore, the edge columns are designed as semi-columns, ensuring that multiple insulation brackets, when spliced together, form a complete column, improving the overall integrity of the assembled system.
[0007] Furthermore, in the aforementioned clamp-on insulation bracket, the first connecting step includes a first upper vertical surface, a first horizontal surface, and a first lower vertical surface, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The second connecting step includes a second upper vertical surface, a second horizontal surface, and a second lower vertical surface, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The first upper vertical surface has a slot, arranged in an array along the first upper vertical surface, and the second upper vertical surface protrudes to form a buckle. The buckle and the slot are fitted together. When two insulation brackets are spliced, the first upper vertical surface and the second upper vertical surface abut together, and the first horizontal surface and the second horizontal surface abut together, with the buckle snapping into the slot of the adjacent insulation bracket. During the splicing of the insulation brackets, the buckle is inserted into the slot from top to bottom. During the snapping process, the first upper vertical surface moves downward along the second upper vertical surface, and the first lower vertical surface moves downward along the second lower vertical surface, guiding the buckle into the slot until the first horizontal surface abuts the second horizontal surface, and the adjacent insulation brackets are flush. The upper vertical, horizontal, and lower vertical surfaces guide the buckles and slots to engage, preventing tearing caused by buckle and slot misalignment, distributing the stress on the splice, and the horizontal surface provides vertical support to prevent misalignment of adjacent insulation supports. The buckles and slots interlock to prevent the insulation supports from coming apart horizontally, thus improving splicing stability.
[0008] Furthermore, in the aforementioned pipe-insulating bracket, a support is provided on the side of the plate away from the column. The support includes an outer frame protrusion and a circular protrusion. The outer frame protrusion is continuously arranged along the outer edge of the bottom surface of the plate, forming a closed rectangular frame structure. The circular protrusion is arranged in a rectangular array within the area enclosed by the outer frame protrusion. The support supports the insulation bracket, forming an air insulation layer, while the outer frame protrusion restricts airflow, blocks edge thermal bridges, reduces heat loss, and improves the energy efficiency of the underfloor heating system.
[0009] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube-insulating bracket, the column is polygonal or cylindrical.
[0010] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube-insulating bracket, the height of the reinforcing rib is set to 1 / 5 to 1 / 3 of the column height, and the reinforcing rib is connected to the bottom of the column.
[0011] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube-insulating bracket, the cross-section of the buckle is designed as a dovetail shape, and the buckle and slot are set accordingly.
[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube-insulating bracket, the plate thickness is set to 20-30mm, and the column height is set to 5-10mm.
[0013] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube-insulating bracket, the main body layer is a closed-cell foam plastic, including XPS, EPS, or polyurethane.
[0014] Furthermore, in the aforementioned tube insulation bracket, the coating layer is a metal reflective layer, including aluminum foil or aluminized PET film.
[0015] Furthermore, in the aforementioned pipe-insulating bracket, the reinforcing ribs are arranged along the edge of the plate or diagonally along the plate.
[0016] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: The pipe-clamping insulation bracket of this utility model uses ribs to suspend the water pipes, leaving a gap between the water pipes and the coating layer to form an air layer. Combined with the coating layer, this forms a composite insulation structure, reducing downward heat loss and improving thermal efficiency. Adjacent insulation brackets are clamped together via a first and second connecting step, improving connection convenience, extending the heat flow path, enhancing thermal resistance performance, reducing heat loss, and improving the energy efficiency of the underfloor heating system. The edge columns are designed as semi-columns, ensuring that multiple insulation brackets form a complete column after splicing, improving the overall integrity of the spliced structure. The vertical, horizontal, and lower vertical surfaces guide the clamping and slotting, preventing tearing caused by clamp and slot misalignment, distributing the splicing force, and the abutting horizontal surface provides vertical support, preventing misalignment of adjacent insulation brackets. The clamps and slots interlock, preventing the insulation brackets from detaching horizontally and improving splicing stability. Attached Figure Description
