Description

Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to the heating of domestic water and space heating water. In particular, the invention relates to a wall bracket for a combined device for heating domestic water and space heating water. The invention also relates to an installation for heating domestic water and space heating water comprising a combined device and a wall bracket according to the invention. The invention also relates to a method for installing such a wall bracket. Prior art

[0002] It is known to combine in the same device the heating of domestic water and the heating water of a room by means of a heat pump. This type of device is called " dual-service heat pump " because the heating of the domestic water as well as the heating water is carried out via a single heat pump comprising a module intended to be placed outside the premises.

[0003] To install such a combined device, it is known to place it on the floor or using a support comprising a frame on the wall with a leg resting on the floor.

[0004] However, the supports can be complex and very bulky, which complicates their manufacture, transport, installation and maintenance, particularly when the space intended to accommodate the combined device is limited, for example in a cupboard. Statement of the invention

[0005] There is a need for a support for a combined domestic hot water and space heating water heater that is simple to manufacture, transport and install. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention meets this need thanks to, according to one of its aspects, a wall support for a combined device for heating domestic water and heating water for a room, the support comprising: a first chassis, the first chassis extending along a main axis; a second chassis, movable relative to the first chassis between a transport position and a use position, the second chassis comprising a plate for connecting the heating water circuit to a heating water installation of a room and the sanitary water circuit to a sanitary water installation of the room, the length of the support along the main axis and / or the width of the support along an axis transverse to the main axis, when the second chassis is in the transport position, being less than said length and / or said width of the support respectively when the second chassis is in the use position; in which the first chassis and / or the second chassis are configured to receive a domestic water storage tank and a module comprising a heat exchanger and at least one water circuit, in particular a heating water circuit and a domestic water circuit.

[0007] The fact that the length of the support along the main axis and / or the width of the support along an axis transverse to the main axis when the second chassis is in the transport position is less than said length and / or said width of the support respectively when the second chassis is in the use position makes it possible to reduce the size of the wall support before its installation, in particular during its transport, which facilitates its handling. This also makes it possible to reduce the volume and dimensions of the packaging of the support during its transport.

[0008] In addition, the support can ensure the correct alignment between the balloon and the module, thanks to the first and second frames, which facilitates the installation of the facility, despite a variation in dimension(s) of the support between the transport position and the position of use of the second frame.

[0009] In one embodiment, the length of the support along the main axis, when the second chassis is in the transport position, is less than the length of the support when the second chassis is in the use position.

[0010] In one embodiment, the width of the support along an axis transverse to the main axis, when the second chassis is in the transport position, is less than the width of the support when the second chassis is in the use position.

[0011] In one embodiment, the length of the support along the main axis and the width of the support along an axis transverse to the main axis, when the second chassis is in the transport position, are respectively less than the length and the width of the support when the second chassis is in the use position. First and second chassis

[0012] The first frame and / or the second frame may be metallic, polymeric, preferably metallic.

[0013] The first frame and / or the second frame may be rigid.

[0014] The first frame and / or the second frame may be formed from a plurality of profiles assembled together.

[0015] The first chassis can have a slender shape along the main axis.

[0016] The second chassis can extend along the main axis.

[0017] The second frame can be movable between the transport position and the use position along the main axis, the length of the support along the main axis in the use position being greater than the length of the support in the transport position.

[0018] The second chassis can be configured to be moved by means of at least one translation between the transport position and the use position, in particular at least one translation along the main axis.

[0019] The second chassis may comprise at least one arm, in particular two arms, sliding in the first chassis when the second chassis moves between the transport position and the use position.

[0020] The arm may include a stop configured to prevent complete removal of the arm from the first frame.

[0021] The first frame and at least part of the second frame may extend in parallel planes, in particular in the same plane. This makes it possible to limit the width of the wall support.

[0022] When the second frame is in the transport position, the length of the support along the main axis can be less than or equal to 120 cm. Such a dimension allows the transport of the support, when the second frame is in the transport position, on a standard European pallet. Platinum

[0023] The second chassis may comprise a frame, the plate preferably being connected to the frame. The frame is preferably mounted on the first chassis.

[0024] The first frame and the frame can extend in parallel planes, especially in the same plane. This makes it possible to limit the width of the wall support.

[0025] The plate can be movable relative to the frame.

[0026] The frame may include the arm(s).

[0027] The plate may in particular be movable in rotation relative to the frame around an axis of rotation between the transport position and the position of use around the axis of rotation.

[0028] The axis of rotation can be perpendicular to the main axis.

[0029] The support may comprise at least one connecting rod, each connecting rod comprising one end in pivot connection with the plate and / or one end in pivot connection with the first chassis.

[0030] In one embodiment, the support comprises at least one pair of connecting rods, each pair comprising a first connecting rod, one end of which is pivotally connected to the plate, and a second connecting rod, one end of which is pivotally connected to the first connecting rod and another end of which is pivotally connected to the first frame.

[0031] In one embodiment, the support comprises at least one connecting rod comprising one end in pivot connection with the plate and one end in pivot connection with the first chassis. One of the pivot connection with the plate and the pivot connection with the first chassis is a pivot connection movable between a first position and a second position, the movable pivot connection being configured to be in the first position when the second chassis is in the transport position and to be in the second position when the second chassis is in the use position. The movable pivot connection can pass between the first and second positions by moving in a slide and / or on a rail. The movable pivot connection can pass between the first and second positions by unlocking-locking, in particular unscrewing-screwing, carried out manually by an operator.

[0032] The plate can extend in a plane substantially parallel to an extension plane of the frame when the second chassis is in the transport position. This makes it possible to significantly limit the width of the support during transport.

[0033] The plate can extend in a plane substantially perpendicular to an extension plane of the frame when the second chassis is in the use position.

[0034] By “substantially perpendicular” is meant a plane forming an angle less than or equal to 20° with the extension plane of the second chassis.

[0035] Thus, when the first and second frames extend in the same plane, the support has a planar shape when the second frame is in the transport position.

[0036] The plate may include connections for the flow and return of sanitary water, in particular at least one flow and at least one return for heating water and at least one flow and at least one return for sanitary water from the premises.

[0037] According to one embodiment, the plate comprises a plurality of heating water outlet connections and a plurality of heating water return connections connected to allow the connection of several heating water installations.

[0038] The connections can be arranged on a front face of the plate, opposite a rear face, the rear face being opposite the wall when the second frame is in the position of use. This makes it easier to access the connections when the wall bracket is installed on the wall, and therefore facilitates the installation of the tank and the module and their maintenance. Fixing

[0039] The support may comprise at least one interface for receiving a first attachment configured to attach the ball, said at least one receiving interface preferably being on the first chassis.

[0040] The receiving interface may be a through-hole on the first chassis.

[0041] The bracket may include at least one second fastener configured to secure the module, said at least one second fastener preferably being secured to the second chassis.

[0042] The first fixing and / or the second fixing may be suspension fixing means, including in particular one or more hooks and / or one or more threaded rods.

[0043] The first fixing can allow the fixing of the sanitary water storage tank and be configured to form a fixing point for the support on the wall of the room. Heating installation

[0044] The invention also relates, according to another of its aspects, in combination with the above, to an installation for heating domestic water and heating water for a room, comprising: a support as defined above; a combined device mounted on the support and comprising a domestic water storage tank and module comprising a heat exchanger and at least one water circuit, in particular a heating water circuit and domestic water circuit; at least one auxiliary domestic water installation comprising at least one draw-off point; at least one auxiliary heating water installation comprising at least one heat emission system for heating the premises.

[0045] The storage tank can have a sanitary water storage volume of between 50 l and 200 l.

[0046] Said at least one auxiliary sanitary water installation and said at least one auxiliary sanitary water installation can be connected respectively to the sanitary water circuit and to the heating water circuit of the combined device.

[0047] The heat for the heat exchanger can come from an external heat source, including a heat pump.

[0048] Heat from the heat exchanger can also be generated in the module of the combined device, for example electrically or by the combustion of a fuel, such as domestic gas or domestic fuel oil. How to install a wall bracket

[0049] The invention also relates, according to another of its aspects, in combination with the above, to a method of installing a wall support as defined above, comprising: moving the second chassis relative to the first chassis from the transport position to the use position so as to increase the length of the support along the main axis and / or the width of the support along an axis transverse to the main axis; fixing the support to a wall of the premises.

[0050] The bracket can be fixed to the wall using wall plugs.

[0051] The bracket can also be fixed by hanging the bracket on hanging means previously fixed to the wall, such as hooks. Brief description of the drawings

Detailed description

[0053] In the remainder of the description, elements that are identical or have identical functions bear the same reference sign. For the sake of brevity in this description, they are not described in relation to each of the figures.

[0054] It has been illustrated to the figures 1 to 6 an example of a wall support S according to the invention for a combined device for heating domestic water and heating water for a room.

[0055] The support S comprises a first frame 1 which extends and is slender along a main axis P.

[0056] The first frame 1 comprises, in this example, two longitudinal profiles 2, extending along the main axis P, connected to each other by two transverse profiles 3, extending perpendicular to the main axis P.

[0057] The longitudinal profiles 2 have, for example, a substantially rectangular section.

[0058] The transverse profiles 3 have, for example, a substantially flat shape.

[0059] One of the transverse profiles 3 has a straight shape and the other an inverted U shape.

[0060] The first frame 1 can be metallic.

[0061] The S bracket also has a second chassis 5.

[0062] The second chassis 5 is movable relative to the first chassis 1 between a transport position, illustrated in the Figures 1 and 2 , and a position of use, illustrated on the Figures 3 and 4 .

[0063] As illustrated, the second chassis 5 comprises a frame formed by two arms 6, extending along the main axis P.

[0064] Each arm 6 comprises a profile with a body 7 of U-shaped section and a foot 8 of variable section and greater than that of the body 7.

[0065] The arms 6 are mounted to slide in the longitudinal profiles 2 of the first chassis 1. The second chassis 5 thus passes from the transport position to the use position by a translation of the arms 6 along the main axis P.

[0066] The second chassis 5 also includes a plate 10 for connecting the heating water circuit to a heating water installation of a room and the sanitary water circuit to a sanitary water installation of the room.

[0067] The plate comprises a tray 12 on which are arranged connections 11 for the flow and return of sanitary water, in particular at least one flow and at least one return of heating water and at least one flow and at least one return of sanitary water from the premises.

[0068] The plate 10 is movable in rotation relative to the second chassis 5 around a Z axis. The Z axis passes, in this example, at the level of the feet 8 of the arms 6.

[0069] The Z axis is perpendicular to the main axis P.

[0070] The support S also comprises two pairs 15 of connecting rods. Each pair 15 comprises a first connecting rod 16, one end 17 of which is in pivot connection with the plate 10, and a second connecting rod 18, one end 19 of which is in pivot connection with the first connecting rod 16 and another end 20, opposite the first, is in pivot connection with the first chassis 1.

[0071] The support S also has four first fixings 25, on the first frame 1. The first fixings 25, as illustrated in the enlargement of the Figure 5 , comprises a main rod 26 passing completely through the first frame 1 through orifices 31 and comprising at one end 27 a cup 28 allowing the fixing of a domestic water storage tank.

[0072] The other end 29 of the fixing 25 makes it possible to fix the support S to a wall of a room.

[0073] The cup 28 is a non-zero distance from the first frame 1, thus allowing the balloon to be fixed by suspension.

[0074] The support S also comprises two second fasteners 30 on the first frame 1. The second fasteners 30 make it possible to fix a module comprising a heat exchanger and at least one water circuit, in particular a heating water circuit and a domestic water circuit.

[0075] Each second attachment 30 includes a hook allowing the module to be attached by suspension.

[0076] When the second chassis 5 is in the transport position, as shown in the Figures 1 and 2, the first chassis 1 and the second chassis 5 extend in the same plane E. The plate 10 extends in a plane parallel to the plane E. The length Lo of the support 1 is, in this example, 100 cm along the main axis P, and its width Ep, measured perpendicular to the plane E, is 12 cm. In this position, the connecting rods 16 and 18 of each pair 15 are folded.

[0077] When the second chassis 5 moves into the position of use, the arms 6 move by translation along the main axis P and the plate 10 rotates around the axis Z.

[0078] When the second chassis 5 is in the position of use, illustrated in the Figures 3 and 4 , the plate 10 extends in a plane forming an angle of approximately 90° with the plane E.

[0079] In addition, the connecting rods 16 and 18 of each pair 15 are deployed and make it possible to maintain the position of the plate 10.

[0080] The length Lo of support 1 is then 130 cm and its width Ep 32 cm.

[0081] To install the support S, the second chassis 5 moves from the transport position to the use position and then the support S is fixed to a wall of the room, in particular using the first fixings 25.

[0082] After fixing the support S, a module 40, comprising a heat exchanger and at least one water circuit, for example a heating water circuit and a domestic water circuit, can be mounted on the second fixings 30 by a two-step movement: a lateral movement D1 and a movement D2 along the main axis P to engage a fixing member of the module 40 with the second fixings 30, as illustrated in the Figure 7 .

[0083] Once mounted, the bottom of the module 40 can be in contact with the plate 10.

[0084] In addition, the position of the connections 11 on the plate is predetermined so as to optimize the connections on the module 40.

[0085] Then, a 50 sanitary water storage tank can be fixed on the first fixings 25 by suspension, as illustrated in the figure 8 , by a two-step movement: a lateral displacement B 1 and a displacement B2 along the main axis P to engage a fixing member 51 of the ball 50 with the second fixings 30, as illustrated in the Figure 7 .

[0086] The movement B2 makes it possible to engage connection means, in particular electrical and / or fluid, to complementary connection means of the module 40. The correct engagement of the connection means to the complementary connection means is ensured by the support S which makes it possible to guarantee correct alignment between the balloon 50 and the module 40.

[0087] Finally, the sanitary water circuits and heating water circuit of the module 40 are respectively connected to at least one auxiliary sanitary water installation comprising at least one draw-off point and at least one auxiliary heating water installation comprising at least one heat emission system for heating the premises, in particular via the connections 11 of the plate 10.
