SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING THERMAL EXPANSION IN A TUBE HEATER
There is provided a system for securing a tube heater to a structure, the tube heater having a burner and a radiant tube extending to an exhaust outlet. The system includes an elongate canopy with an exhaust end securable to the exhaust outlet, an opposed burner end securable adjacent to the burner, and a reflector extending there between. An exhaust hanger is rigidly coupled to the structure and to the canopy proximate the exhaust end, and rigidly receives the exhaust outlet. A burner hanger is coupled to the canopy proximate the burner end and is slidably coupled to the structure. The burner hanger receives the radiant tube therethrough. The burner hanger allows the burner and burner end of the canopy to slide relative to the structure to accommodate thermal expansion of the radiant tube and the canopy from the exhaust end towards the burner end.
System and method for fastening a heating or cooling body
The invention relates to a system and method for fastening a heating/cooling element (3) to a wall or to a floor, the method comprising the following steps: a) fastening at least two brackets (1, 2) to a wall (W) and/or to a floor (B), the longitudinal axis (L) of each bracket (1, 2) being vertically oriented and the two brackets (1, 2) being spaced apart from one another in the horizontal direction; b) bringing a first (lower) edge formation of the heating/cooling element into engagement with the complementary first bracket formation (F1) of the particular bracket (1, 2), so that a pivoting engagement between the heating/cooling element (3) and the brackets (1, 2) is established; c) pivoting the heating/cooling element (3) with respect to the two brackets (1, 2) about a pivot axis (R), a second (upper) edge formation of the heating/cooling element being swiveled toward the second bracket formation (F2) of the particular bracket (1, 2); and d) bringing the second (upper) edge formation of the heating/cooling element (3) into engagement with the complementary second bracket formation (F2) of the particular bracket (1, 2), so that a locking engagement between the heating/cooling element (3) and the brackets (1, 2) is established.
