Abstract
Description
[0001] 1) Thermal area: The invention relates to a prefabricated thermal module for small and medium-sized systems, in particular for heat distribution in single-family homes and smaller buildings. To my knowledge, this module has not been manufactured and used before. The system optimizes assembly, reduces heat losses, and allows for the reuse of components. 2) Module structure: The module consists of three square aluminum tubes arranged in parallel and embedded in a robust polystyrene sandwich housing.After manufacturing, the polystyrene module is clad on four outer sides with aluminum sheeting, thus maintaining mechanical stability, robustness, durability, and a professional appearance. The front and back, through which the pipes enter and exit, are also clad to preserve thermal efficiency and prevent unwanted heat conduction. 3) Connection system and sealing: Each pipe is equipped with a plug-in system with 3 seals, which offers the following advantages: 1) Maximum tightness, 2) Quick and safe installation, 3) Reusability of the pipe after disassembly by replacing the seals
[0002] Thermal advantages and energy savings: The combination of pre-insulated tubes, a robust polystyrene housing, and aluminum cladding reduces heat loss and leads to significant energy savings compared to conventional systems that are directly pre-assembled. Handling and assembly: The housing is equipped with hinges and two latches that allow for quick opening and closing. The integrated carrying handle facilitates transport, similar to a technical carrying case. The module is manufactured entirely in the factory in standard lengths of up to 2 meters.
Claims
[1] Styrofoam housing, factory manufactured, for receiving and fixing pipes, thereby enabling quick and stable installation of the pipes without the need for on-site assembly characterized by This type of assembly allows the use of round and square tubes, but offers few advantages regardless of whether they are made of plastic, iron, aluminum or other materials. [2] Styrofoam housing according to claim 1, is with channels for receiving three tubes, the ends of which are inserted into another tube, each provided with rubber or other material that ensures tightness and heat saving, the inner seal at the entry point is specially cut so that it can be easily removed and replaced, thereby protecting the two inner seals. [3] Styrofoam housing according to claim 1 or 2, which allows easy handling, removal and replacement of the tubes without special tools [4] Styrofoam housing according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the material and structure are dimensioned to support the tubes and prevent deformation or damage detrimental to their use [5] Styrofoam according to one of the preceding claims, the channels of which are compatible with pipes of different diameters and lengths up to 2 meters and offer flexibility in installation [6] Styrofoam housing according to one of the preceding claims that protects pipes from wear, impact and heat loss, extends the service life of the system, reduces maintenance requirements and facilitates transport, easy assembly and reuse of the pipe by replacing the seals, if necessary. Likewise, by reusing components, manufacturers and consumers protect the environment.
