Suspended Radiator Patents (Class 248/233)
  • Patent number: 10962255
    Abstract: A wall mount bracket for HVAC Equipment such as a heat pump, AC condensing unit, and preferably the exterior condenser unit of a mini split system. The system can advantageously be used in colder climates to prevent equipment from freezing and keep equipment above the level of the snow, etc. The wall mounts herein employ an offset to space the unit away from the wall of the structure to provide clearance on the rear of the unit. The offset also allows the units to be mounted above the top of the foundation wall without disrupting the exterior siding of the structure.

  • Patent number: 5069275
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a heat exchanger body and fasteners used to mount the body on an automobile or the like. The heat exchanger body comprises flat tubes and fin members alternatingly stacked on each other and a pair of hollow headers, with the ends of each tube being connected in fluid communication with the headers. Each fastener comprises a contacting concave portion with a shape which allows it to fit on an outer peripheral surface of a header, a hooking portion protruding from an end of the concave portion, and a fastening portion extending outwardly from another end of the concave portion. The concave portion is placed in close contact with the peripheral surface of the header, with a hook end of the hooking portion being inserted in between two adjacent tubes. The fasteners are soldered to the heat exchanger body and become integral with it.

  • Patent number: 4862953
    Abstract: A mounting bracket for a heat exchanger of the type defined by a core having tubes and fins assembled together. The mounting bracket is adapted to extend between a pair of spaced plates between which the core is disposed. A first securing mechanism is associated with a first end of the mounting bracket. It is adapted to cooperate with one of the plates for interlocked pivotal movement of the mounting bracket relative to the other of the plates. The first securing mechanism accommodates movement from a position where the second end of the mounting bracket is spaced from the other of the plates to a position where the second end of the mounting bracket is adjacent the other of the plates. A second securing mechanism is associated with a second end of the mounting bracket. It is adapted to cooperate with the other of the plates for locked engagement of the mounting bracket to the other of the plates.

  • Patent number: 4546236
    Abstract: A sauna heating unit including electrical heating elements (17), which are surrounded by a casing (11) open at the top and at the bottom, elements (17) being regulatable and connectable and disconnectable through control elements (15,16) arranged on a control panel (14) on one side of the unit. The unit through brackets (19), are mountable on a wall. The sauna unit in a few steps can be changed to right-hand or left-hand versions and is constructed and supported so that the outer casing and the inner shield are practically unloaded, and heat transmitting connections can be avoided. Brackets (19) are detachably connectable to the upper and/or lower free end of the unit at alternative angles, parallel or approximately parallel to the sidewalls of the stone holder (13).

  • Patent number: 4216823
    Abstract: The invention provides a heat apparatus for heating rooms in buildings and acting as baseboard in the rooms, where the heat is transmitted from a gaseous or liquid heating medium, such as steam or hot water, which passes channels in the housing of the apparatus. The housing comprises a housing portion which is a profile rail of metal, preferably a metal alloy with great heat conductivity, such as an aluminium alloy, and the profile rail is formed with integral, longitudinally extending, inner beads having hollow spaces for the heating medium, whereby the housing portion containing the heating medium channels can be manufactured in one operation by extrusion.
