Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipe clamp technology, specifically relating to a limiting and fixing device for pipes at the manifold of underfloor heating systems. Background Technology

[0002] Radiant floor heating systems are becoming increasingly popular in modern buildings. During installation, the quality of the piping at the manifold directly affects the overall performance of the system. To ensure reliability and aesthetics, the pipes must be arranged neatly and orderly at the manifold; the spacing and curvature of parallel pipes must be precisely controlled; and the distance between the pipe bundle and the wall must be strictly controlled. Currently, the industry standard for limiting and fixing the pipes at the manifold is manual binding by on-site workers. However, the tightness of manual binding depends entirely on the worker's strength and experience, making uniform control difficult. Pipes are prone to displacement and shaking during subsequent construction, failing to provide effective limiting and fixing, thus affecting system stability. Furthermore, the lack of a unified positioning standard makes manual operation prone to chaotic pipe arrangement, especially at multi-loop manifolds where inlet and outlet pipes intersect, easily causing pipe crossings and twists, severely impacting the aesthetics and standardization of the finished product.

[0003] Chinese patent CN206669195U discloses a floor heating manifold, including a bracket, on which an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe are fixed. The bracket is equipped with an arc-shaped retaining ring for fixing the inlet and outlet pipes. Several fixing blocks are respectively provided on the inlet and outlet pipes, distributed along their axial direction. The arc-shaped retaining ring has a locking groove for engaging with the fixing blocks. This patent, by providing locking grooves on the arc-shaped retaining ring, ensures that the fixing blocks engage with the locking grooves when the inlet and outlet pipes are fixed, effectively preventing relative movement between the inlet and outlet pipes and the bracket during use. This avoids mutual wear between the bracket and the inlet and outlet pipes to a certain extent, and also effectively prevents loosening at the connection points between the floor heating pipes and the inlet and outlet pipes. However, this patent does not provide any effective limiting or arrangement function for the multiple underfloor heating pipes leading out from each joint of the manifold. It cannot solve the problem of chaotic arrangement and inconsistent spacing of underfloor heating pipes on the construction site. The final arrangement quality of the pipes still depends heavily on the individual experience of the workers and cannot achieve standardized and regulated construction. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a limiting and fixing device for pipes at the manifold of underfloor heating, which can fundamentally solve the problems of chaotic pipe arrangement and inconsistent spacing caused by manual binding, and improve the overall appearance and installation standardization of pipes at the manifold.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A limiting and fixing device for pipes at a floor heating manifold includes a support frame for fixing water supply pipes and return pipes. The support frame includes a horizontal base plate and vertical side plates vertically connected to both sides of the horizontal base plate. Several sets of pipe bundle positioning members are fixedly arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction on the horizontal base plate. A first moving control rod and a second moving control rod are arranged parallel to each other and at intervals between the two vertical side plates. The axis of the first moving control rod is perpendicular to the axis of the pipe bundle positioning member. Several sets of return pipes are arranged side by side between the horizontal base plate and the first moving control rod, and several sets of water supply pipes are arranged side by side between the first moving control rod and the second moving control rod.

[0006] Furthermore, sliding grooves are provided through both vertical side plates, and the sliding grooves are generally elongated.

[0007] Furthermore, both ends of the first and second moving control levers are slidably disposed in the sliding groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a first locking element is provided on the outer side of the two vertical side plates in conjunction with the first moving control lever, and a second locking element is provided on the outer side of the two vertical side plates in conjunction with the second moving control lever.

[0009] Furthermore, the first locking component includes a locking nut that is threadedly connected to the first moving control lever. The locking nut is generally frustum-shaped, and a pair of hand-tightening blades are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the locking nut.

[0010] Furthermore, the second locking component includes a locking nut that is threadedly connected to the second moving control lever. The locking nut is generally frustum-shaped, and a pair of hand-tightening blades are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the locking nut.

[0011] Furthermore, a first clamping washer is provided between the first locking member and the outer surface of the vertical side plate, and the first clamping washer is sleeved on the first moving control rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a second clamping washer is provided between the second locking member and the outer surface of the vertical side plate, and the second clamping washer is sleeved on the second moving control rod.

[0013] Furthermore, mounting plates extend integrally from the outer sides of both vertical side panels, with the mounting plates perpendicular to the vertical side panels and extending outwards from the load-bearing frame.

[0014] Furthermore, mounting holes are provided through the mounting plate.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention utilizes two independent limiting spaces comprised of a supporting frame, a first moving control rod, and a second moving control rod to separately constrain the supply and return water pipes. The pipe bundle positioning component precisely controls the horizontal spacing of all pipes, ensuring their parallel arrangement. The first and second moving control rods work together to adjust the distance between the pipes and the wall, as well as the spacing between the supply and return water pipes, thereby ensuring consistent curvature and neat arrangement of all pipes. This invention fundamentally solves the problems of chaotic pipe arrangement, inconsistent spacing, and unpredictable curvature caused by manual binding, significantly improving the overall aesthetic quality and standardization of pipe installation at the manifold.

The supporting frame 3 includes a horizontal base plate 301 and vertical side plates 302 vertically connected to both sides of the horizontal base plate 301. Several sets of pipe bundle positioning members 4 are fixedly arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction on the horizontal base plate 301. A first moving control rod 5 and a second moving control rod 6 are arranged parallel to each other and at intervals between the two vertical side plates 302. The axis of the first moving control rod 5 is perpendicular to the axis of the pipe bundle positioning member 4. Several sets of return pipes 2 are arranged side by side between the horizontal base plate 301 and the first moving control rod 5, and several sets of supply pipes 1 are arranged side by side between the first moving control rod 5 and the second moving control rod 6.

[0019] Both vertical side plates 302 are provided with sliding grooves 7, which are long and narrow in shape.

[0020] Both ends of the first moving control lever 5 and both ends of the second moving control lever 6 are slidably disposed in the sliding groove 7.

[0022] The first locking component 8 includes a locking nut that is threadedly connected to the first moving control lever 5. The locking nut is generally frustum-shaped, and a pair of hand-tightening blades are symmetrically arranged on the outer side wall of the locking nut.

[0023] The second locking component 9 includes a locking nut that is threadedly connected to the second moving control lever 6. The locking nut is generally frustum-shaped, and a pair of hand-tightening blades are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the locking nut.

[0024] A first clamping washer 10 is provided between the first locking member 8 and the outer surface of the vertical side plate 302, and the first clamping washer 10 is sleeved on the first moving control rod 5.
