Abstract
Description
[0001] The innovation concerns a heat pump base comprising at least two separate elements, each of which is provided with an anchor rail.
[0002] Nowadays, heat pumps must be able to be installed quickly, easily and safely.
[0003] The aim of this innovation was therefore to provide storage.
[0004] The task is solved with a heat pump base having at least two separate elements, each of which has an anchor rail.
[0005] This innovation concerns a heat pump base that consists of two separate, spaced-apart elements. The spacing between the elements is freely selectable, allowing the heat pump base to be adapted to any heat pump. Each element, particularly on its top, contains an anchor rail that allows the heat pump and the element to be reversibly connected. This connection is made, for example, with a screw.
[0006] Preferably, the anchor rail is connected to the element in a form-fitting and / or material-fitting manner. If the element is made of a flowable, hardening material, the anchor rail is preferably placed in a mold that is preferably a negative of the shape of the element. After the material has hardened, the anchor rail is connected to the element material in a form-fitting and / or material-fitting manner.
[0007] The element is preferably made of concrete, preferably with a concrete grade C30 / 37.
[0008] Preferably, the anchor rail extends the entire length of the element and is open at at least one end. This facilitates the installation of the heat pump on the element. The anchor rail preferably has a threading area, particularly at one end.
[0009] Preferably, the anchor rail accommodates the head of a screw, in particular a square head
[0010] According to a preferred embodiment, the element is cuboid-shaped, with the cuboid preferably having a length of 70-90 cm, a width of 20-30 cm, and / or a height of 8-12 cm. These dimensions allow for secure support of the elements, easy installation, and / or the integration of heat pumps of any type.
[0011] Preferably each element (2) has a weight of 80 - 100 kg
[0012] The innovation is further explained using the figures. These explanations are merely examples and do not limit the general idea of the innovation. Fig. 1 shows an element. Fig. 2 shows a heat pump mounted on the new heat pump base.
[0013] Fig. 1 shows an element 2 of the heat pump base, which in this case is cuboid-shaped and has a length L, a width B, and a height H. In this case, L = 80 cm, W = 24 cm, and H = 10 cm. The weight of the element is 90 kg. The element is made of concrete with a grade of C30 / 37. The element rests with its underside on a base. An anchor rail is provided on the top side of the element and extends over the entire length of the element. In one end region, it preferably has a threading 5 for a fastening element, for example a screw. The anchor rail is firmly and / or positively connected to the concrete.
[0014] Fig.Figure 2 shows a heat pump 4 mounted on the heat pump base 1. The spacing between the two elements is chosen to match the connection devices provided on the heat pump. Preferably, there is a gap between the heat pump and each element. The length L of each element is preferably longer than the width of the heat pump to accommodate each element and to ensure the heat pump remains stable.
