Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snap-fit structures, and in particular to a snap-fit structure for fixing underfloor heating pipes. Background Technology
[0002] Underfloor heating pipes are the core pipes in low-temperature floor radiant heating systems, used to circulate hot water or electric heating wires to evenly radiate heat across the entire floor. They are typically made of high-polymer materials such as PE-RT, PE-Xa, PE-Xb, or aluminum-plastic composites, which are resistant to high temperatures, high pressures, and oxygen permeability. The outer diameter is mostly 16mm or 20mm. The spacing between the coils is determined by heat load calculations. After being connected to the heat source through a manifold, a closed loop is formed, with low-temperature hot water at 30–60℃ continuously circulating in the pipes. Heat is gently released from bottom to top through radiation, achieving energy-saving, comfortable, and space-saving heating effects.
[0003] In the existing underfloor heating pipe laying process, there is a wet underfloor heating construction process: first, an insulation board is laid on the ground, then the underfloor heating pipes are laid on the insulation board according to certain requirements, and then cement backfilling is done; when laying the underfloor heating pipes on the insulation board, a type of underfloor heating pipe clip is needed. The main function of the clip is to fix the underfloor heating pipes to the insulation board.
[0004] Existing underfloor heating pipe clips typically only serve a fixing function. However, because the clips are in close contact with the pipes and the (nail) part of the clip is driven into the building layer, heat in the pipes can be transferred to the building layer through the clips, resulting in heat loss. Utility Model Content

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a buckle structure for fixing underfloor heating pipes, including a buckle body and a fixing nail 1.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, the buckle body has an installation notch for matching the underfloor heating pipe, so that it can be snapped onto the underfloor heating pipe facing downwards. The specific shape of the buckle body is not limited; it can be square, C-shaped, U-shaped, or other shapes. As an example, the buckle body has a U-shaped structure. The fixing nail 1 is located on the side of the installation notch and is fixedly connected to the buckle body, so that it can be driven downwards into the building layer to fix the buckle body, thereby completing the fixation of the underfloor heating pipe.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, the fixing nail 1 is made of a material with poor thermal conductivity, which provides both thermal insulation and good flexibility. While fulfilling its fixing function, it reduces heat transfer to the building layers, thus lowering heat loss. The concept of poor thermal conductivity can be a thermal conductivity of less than 0.5 W / m·K. Further, materials with a thermal conductivity of less than 0.2 W / m·K are preferred, such as some plastic materials, such as PP (polypropylene), high-density extruded polystyrene, or other materials with poor thermal conductivity. Further, the number of fixing nails 1 can be two, respectively disposed on both sides of the installation notch, effectively fixing the underfloor heating pipe.
[0029] Please see Figure 1In one embodiment of this utility model, a heat insulation part 2 is provided at the end of the buckle body connected to the fixing nail 1. That is, the end of the buckle body that contacts the ground when in use is provided with the heat insulation part 2. The heat insulation part 2 can be made of the same material with poor thermal conductivity as the fixing nail 1, thus further blocking the transfer of heat to the building layer. The heat insulation part 2 can be configured as a layered structure fixed to the buckle body. The fixing nail 1 can be fixedly connected to the heat insulation part 2.
[0030] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, to improve the strength performance of the snap-fit structure, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 3 are fixedly provided on the outer side of the snap-fit body. The reinforcing ribs 3 can be arranged around the installation notch, that is, around the underfloor heating pipe, to maximize their reinforcing effect. The number of reinforcing ribs 3 is not limited; as an example, there can be three reinforcing ribs 3, arranged in parallel and spaced apart along the axis of the snap-fit body. The reinforcing ribs are made of high-strength material and can withstand the pressure of the floor and cement layer, thus providing reinforcement.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, the buckle body may include an inner body 4 for fitting the underfloor heating pipe, and the reinforcing rib 3 is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the inner body 4. A plurality of heat dissipation components 5 may also be fixedly disposed on the outer side of the inner body 4. The heat dissipation component 5 may be configured as a sheet structure, and may be disposed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 3, with the height of the heat dissipation component 5 being lower than the height of the reinforcing rib 3, so that the reinforcing rib 3 can protect the heat dissipation component 5. A plurality of heat dissipation components 5 may be spaced apart around the axis of the mounting notch. Specifically, the material of the inner body 4 may be the same as the material of the heat dissipation component 5, both being materials with high thermal conductivity. The concept of high thermal conductivity can be: a material with a thermal conductivity greater than 50 W / m·K, preferably a material with a thermal conductivity greater than 200 W / m·K. For example, a metal material, specifically copper, aluminum, etc., or iron, stainless steel, and other materials that meet the high thermal conductivity requirement can be selected.
[0032] The working principle of this utility model:
[0033] The fixing nail 1 is made of a material with poor thermal conductivity. While fixing the underfloor heating pipe with the clip body, it can also play a role in heat insulation, reducing the transfer of heat from the pipe to the building layer below the insulation layer, thus reducing heat loss. A heat insulation part 2 is provided at the end of the clip body that contacts the ground, further reducing the transfer of heat from the pipe to the building layer below the insulation layer, thus reducing heat loss. The inner body 4 is made of the same material as the heat dissipation component 5, both of which are made of materials with high thermal conductivity, resulting in high heat transfer efficiency and the ability to quickly transfer heat from the pipe to the floor, thereby improving the efficiency of heat transfer from the underfloor heating pipe to the floor layer.
