Abstract

Abstract A hot water surface heating device that includes a plurality of coupled individually-prefabricated, plate-like assemblies, each of which includes a base plate, a cover plate and at least one plastic pipe disposed between the base plate and the cover plate. The plates each having a reinforcing layer and an inner surface opposing the inner surface of the other plate provided with at least one channel for the partial receipt therein of the pipe. The heating device is extremely thin and is especially suitable for installation in old buildings.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 98 words
A hot water surface heating device, comprising: a plurality of coupled, individually-prefabricated, plate-like assemblies, each of which includes a base plate, a cover plate and at least one plastic pipe disposed between said base plate and said cover plate, said plates each having a reinforcing layer and an inner surface opposing the inner surface of the other plate provided with at least one channel for the partial receipt therein of said at least one pipe and wherein said cover plates of said assemblies are offset with respect to their associated base plates so as to form circumferentially-disposed steps.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 98 words
A hot water surface heating device, comprising: a plurality of coupled, individually-prefabricated, plate-like assemblies, each of which includes a base plate, a cover plate and at least one plastic pipe disposed between said base plate and said cover plate, said plates each having a reinforcing layer and an inner surface opposing the inner surface of the other plate provided with at least one channel for the partial receipt therein of said at least one pipe and wherein said cover plates of said assemblies are offset with respect to their associated base plates so as to form circumferentially-disposed steps.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The heating device according to claim 1, wherein said plates are provided with complimentary-configured mating tongue-and-groove coupling elements at the lateral edges thereof for coupling with the plates of the adjacent assemblies.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The heating device according to claim 1, wherein said plates of adjacent assemblies are rigidly secured together in the area of said steps.
Claim 5
