Pipe element for insulating at least one pipe

摘要

According to one exemplary embodiment, the application relates to a pipe element 100 for insulating at least one pipe. The pipe element has a base member 110, which enables attachment of the pipe element to a mounting surface and which comprises an outer shell 116 made up by a flat segment 112 and sidewall segments 114a, 114b, as well as at least one insulation 120 fitted against an internal surface 117 of the outer shell's flat segment and having its outer surface 122 formed with at least one groove 124 for installing at least one pipe in the pipe element, in which base member the outer shell has its ends 118a, 118b adapted to bend over the insulation. The cover member 130 is adapted for attachment to the base member and comprises an outer shell 136 made up by a flat segment 132 and sidewall segments 134a, 134b, as well as an insulation 140 fitted at least against an internal surface 137 of the outer shell's flat segment and having its outer surface 142 formed with at least one groove 144 for installing at least one pipe in the pipe element, in which cover member the outer shell has its ends 138a, 138b adapted to bend co-directionally with the ends of the base member's outer shell. the cover member has corners 145a, 145b of its insulation provided along the pipe element's entire length with recesses 146a, 146b, at least one recess 146a, 146b of which settles, when the insulation is in place in the cover member, against a junction 135a, 135b of the flat segment and the sidewall segment 134a, 134b of its outer shell. The base member and the cover member have corners 127a, 127b, 147a, 147b of their insulations provided along the pipe element's entire length with recesses 128a, 128b, 148a, 148b, whereof at least one recess 128a, 128b, 148a, 148b of the base member and the cover member settles, when the insulations 120, 140 are in place in the base member and in the cover member, against junctions 119a, 119b of the sidewall segments 114a, 114b, 134a, 134b of their outer shell and the outer shell's ends 118a, 118b bent over the insulations, and which provide a possibility of deflecting the outer shell's ends into the recesses, whereby the outer shell's ends settle in a flush relationship with the outer surface of the insulations.
