DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION
These Specifications refer to an application for a model of utility concerning the shaping of junction finishes for "Climaver Plus" type glass wool piping, clearly designed for use as finishing units for the ends of the glass wool shapes.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention applies in the metal shape manufacturing industry.
2. Background of the Invention
Self-supporting glass or mineral wool pipes commonly used to make air conditioning piping are cut and joined together to follow the outlines of building walls and ceilings.
At such junctions between the pipes, the air flow raises the inside edge of the pipe and eventually lifts and removes the mineral wool, to the serious detriment of the air flow, which is thus reduced and so impairs the cooling or heating of the premises.
The obvious solution to this problem at present would be to provide a component specifically preventing those anomalies.
The applicant is at present unaware of the existence of any device, element or shape which avoids this problem.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The shaping of junction finishes for "Climaver Plus" type glass wool piping proposed in the invention is of itself a clear novelty within its field of action since, once incorporated into glass or mineral wool air piping or self-carried type piping, the anomalies referred to above are avoided.
More specifically, the shaping for the finish to junctions for "Climaver plus" type glass wool piping which is the subject of the invention is manufactured from a shape which can vary but which will, in general, be fundamentally long, where there are two similar areas made by folding an aluminium or other metal strip into a 90.degree. angle at the top and extending horizontally where, immediately at the end of said horizontal area, it is shaped in the opposite direction, and adapting to the lower part of said horizontal area, to emerge from the upper vertical section from the other side, thereby forming an area of junction between the two different mineral or glass wool elements, added at the point where they are joined, and avoiding the anomalies created by the air flow with the lifting of the wool linings which spoil the flow in the interior of the piping.
In summary, the shape obtained by folding an aluminium or similar metal plate takes the form of a double right angle in opposite positions, with a protruding skirt at right angles to the two vertical extensions, precisely acting as the point of junction of panels made of glass or mineral wool to form tubular piping for air conditioning applications, specifically as pipes through which the air delivered to the various areas flows.
Clearly, the shape can be adapted to any form which may be deemed appropriate, with small modifications in order to connect the panels used to make the piping.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
To complement the description being given and in order to assist in a better understanding of the features of the invention, these Specifications are accompanied by a sheet of drawings, forming an integral part hereof and which, by way of illustration and without limitation, show the following:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the subject of the invention concerning junction finish shaping for "Climaver Plus" glass wool piping.
FIG. 2 shows the way in which the component illustrated in FIG. 1 is coupled on glass or mineral wool panels.
A PREFERENTIAL EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
These illustrations show how the shaping for finishing "Climaver Plus" type glass wool piping junctions put forward comprises a body (1) of undefined length, preferably made of aluminium or some other metal, on a suitably folded plate, with a vertical upper area (2) of rectangular ground plan form, and with a lateral prolongation (3) which is also rectangular, with which element (2) forms a 90.degree. angle: a vertical extension (4) emerges from the finishing line of zone (3) which, at its own finishing line, is deformed and then folded into a vertical upward direction to create an area (4) which is further shaped
