Radiator, in particular for room heating

摘要

A radiator in particular for room heating, comprising a control or measurement unit accommodated in a container integral with the radiator and positioned so as to sustain the heat from the radiator as little as possible, while exploiting a cool air flow drawn by the same to cool the internal circuitry defining the unit. Said container is conveniently spaced apart from the radiator by means of insulating elements and a part of the same container is formed by a heat dissipator to which one or more electronic power elements included in said circuitry are thermally connected.

主权项

1. A radiator for room heating, having a first radiating surface and a second radiating surface, opposite to the first surface, the radiator being configured to be fixed to a support wall, wherein the second radiating surface faces towards the support wall when the radiator is installed on said support wall and defines a rear surface of the radiator, said first radiating surface facing the room where the radiator is installed, said first surface and said second surface each having a surface area larger than a surface area of other surfaces of said radiator, the radiator comprising a container integrally fixed to the radiator and having a first wall proximal to the radiator and a second wall distal from the radiator and a control or measurement unit, accommodated in the container, wherein said container is arranged with the first wall facing towards and in superposition with the second radiating surface of the radiator, the first wall and the second radiating surface each being substantially parallel and spaced apart a predetermined distance from one another so as to form a passage for an ascending air flow generated by the operation of the radiator, the passage being sized and shaped to have a thickness defined by the predetermined distance, and a length and width defined by extent of the superposition of the first wall with the second radiating surface, with said passage being external to said control or measurement unit and open in directions transverse to the ascending air flow, wherein the length and width are both greater than the thickness to define a substantially flat air flow, said air flow brushing the container.
