Definitions

  • the invention relates to a combination of heat pump component and transport packaging as well as transport packaging according to the preambles of the independent claims.
  • Heat pump systems are increasingly being used to generate hot water and heat. These include several components, including in an air heat pump a so-called outdoor unit, which extracts heat from the outside air. Such an outdoor unit is a heat pump component. Such an outdoor unit is a relatively sensitive component. For transport from the manufacturer to the interim storage and from the interim storage to the installer, for example, such an outdoor unit has so far been placed on a pallet and covered with a plastic film.
  • the combination of heat pump component and transport packaging according to the invention and the transport packaging according to the invention have the advantage that they can be stacked without fear that the heat pump component is damaged.
  • a transport device for example a container or a truck
  • significantly more heat pump components can be transported than before, which reduces transport costs and energy consumption for transport. Less space is also required for storage than before.
  • the heat pump component is preferably an external unit of a heat pump system, but in principle any other heat pump component belonging to a heat pump system is also conceivable.
  • the invention is also applicable to components of other heating systems.
  • the transport packaging includes a base section on which the heat pump component is arranged.
  • the base section can preferably be a pallet, in particular a wooden pallet.
  • the base section is designed so that it can be easily transported using appropriate devices, for example using a forklift.
  • the transport packaging further comprises a vertical support structure, which is supported downwards on the base section and extends upwards in the vertical direction at least beyond the heat pump component. Since the vertical support structure extends upwards in the vertical direction beyond the heat pump component, it is ensured that a load arranged on the transport packaging does not press on the heat pump component, but is supported exclusively by the vertical support structure.
  • the vertical support structure is preferably dimensioned or designed in such a way that it can carry and transport at least one combination of heat pump component and transport packaging arranged on it without bending, denting, breaking, etc., and preferably also during normal transport acting dynamic shock loads. It is preferably dimensioned and designed so that it can carry and transport several combinations of heat pump components and transport packaging arranged on it, i.e. one Stacks can be formed from such combinations. Typically, such a stack can include four combinations of heat pump component and transport packaging.
  • the support structure comprises a plurality of support sections extending in the vertical direction, the support sections preferably comprising a wooden material.
  • the support sections are wooden sticks or flat wooden slats.
  • Such support sections are inexpensive and allow uniform and sufficient upward support.
  • At least one support section is positively connected to the base section.
  • Such a positive connection can be produced quickly and easily and ensures a secure connection between the vertical support section and the base section.
  • the positive connection comprises a metal tongue attached to the base section and extending vertically upwards, which engages in a slot in the support section. This is very stable and can be easily implemented.
  • the heat pump component is positively connected to the base section. This prevents slipping, particularly in the lateral direction, and thus protects the heat pump component from damage during transport.
  • a heat pump component has four feet with which it can be attached to the ground at the installation site, such as a foundation.
  • a positive connection of these feet to the base section can, for example, be achieved very easily by means of recesses in the base section which are complementary to the projecting end of the feet. Since typical heat pump components are relatively heavy, a comparatively small depth of these recesses is sufficient to reliably establish the positive fit.
  • the heat pump component there is at least one between the heat pump component and the base section
  • Intermediate piece is arranged, which is preferably made of an MDF or a plywood material, and which is preferably also arranged at least in the area of the positive connection. This can provide additional vertical support for the heat pump component relative to the base section, thereby increasing the overall stability of the combination of heat pump component and transport packaging.
  • the intermediate piece is arranged in the area of the positive connection, it can have slot-like recesses which engage behind corresponding projections on the feet of the heat pump component. By attaching the intermediate piece to the base section, for example using screws or nails, the heat pump component is reliably attached to the base section.
  • the transport packaging comprises a lateral housing which laterally encloses the heat pump component, the housing preferably comprising a sandwich material, more preferably a sandwich material with a honeycomb core.
  • a housing can, for example, be cuboid with four flat vertical side walls.
  • the heat pump component is additionally protected from damage.
  • a sandwich material is stable and light.
  • the sandwich material can be a Hexaco mb material, which can be disposed of easily and simply in an environmentally friendly manner.
  • the housing comprises a lid, the lid preferably comprising a cardboard material, more preferably corrugated cardboard.
  • the heat pump component is also protected from above.
  • Corrugated cardboard can also be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and is lightweight.
  • the vertical support structure is fastened to the base section at least indirectly by a fastening means, the fastening means preferably comprising a tension belt.
  • a fastening means preferably comprising a tension belt.
  • This can be made from a PET material, for example. In this way, a compact assembly is created that holds together reliably.
  • the invention also includes a transport packaging for a heat pump component, which can be used in the combination of the type described above.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a stack consisting of two combinations of heat pump components and transport packaging;
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of a base section of the transport packaging from Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 is a perspective view of the base section of Figure 2 together with an intermediate piece
  • Figure 4 is a perspective view of the arrangement of Figure 3, additionally with a heat pump component and a side housing;
  • Figure 5 shows a region of the arrangement of Figure 4, additionally with a cover
  • Figure 6 shows a region of the arrangement of Figure 5, additionally with a vertical support structure
  • Figure 7 shows the arrangement of Figure 6, additionally with a fastening means in the form of tension straps.
  • a stack bears the reference number 10. It comprises a total of two combinations 12 stacked on top of one another in a vertical direction 11, each of which includes a transport packaging 14 and a heat pump component arranged in the transport packaging 14 and therefore not visible in Figure 1.
  • the transport packaging 14 includes a base section 16 on which the heat pump component is arranged, which therefore carries the heat pump component. Furthermore, the transport packaging 14 comprises a vertical support structure 18, in the present case in the form of a plurality of support sections 20.

Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung, sowie T ransportverpackung Combination of heat pump component and transport packaging, as well as transport packaging
Stand der Technik State of the art
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung sowie eine Transportverpackung nach den Oberbegriffen der nebengeordneten Ansprüche. The invention relates to a combination of heat pump component and transport packaging as well as transport packaging according to the preambles of the independent claims.
Für die Erzeugung von Warmwasser sowie für Heizwärme werden verstärkt Wärmepumpensysteme eingesetzt. Diese umfassen mehrere Komponenten, darunter bei einer Luft-Wärmepumpe eine sog. Außeneinheit, welche der Außenluft Wärme entzieht. Eine solche Außeneinheit ist insoweit eine Wärmepumpenkomponente. Bei einer solchen Außeneinheit handelt es sich um eine relativ empfindliche Komponente. Für den Transport vom Hersteller zum Zwischenlager und vom Zwischenlager weiter beispielsweise zum Installateur wird eine solche Außeneinheit bisher beispielsweise auf eine Palette gestellt und mit einer Kunststofffolie umhüllt. Heat pump systems are increasingly being used to generate hot water and heat. These include several components, including in an air heat pump a so-called outdoor unit, which extracts heat from the outside air. Such an outdoor unit is a heat pump component. Such an outdoor unit is a relatively sensitive component. For transport from the manufacturer to the interim storage and from the interim storage to the installer, for example, such an outdoor unit has so far been placed on a pallet and covered with a plastic film.
Offenbarung der Erfindung Disclosure of the invention
Das der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Problem wird durch eine Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung sowie durch eine Transportverpackung mit den Merkmalen der nebengeordneten Ansprüche gelöst. The problem on which the invention is based is solved by a combination of heat pump component and transport packaging as well as by transport packaging with the features of the independent claims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung und die erfindungsgemäße Transportverpackung haben den Vorteil, dass sie gestapelt werden können, ohne dass zu befürchten ist, dass die Wärmepumpenkomponente zu Schaden kommt. In einer Transporteinrichtung, beispielsweise einem Container oder einem Lkw, können somit deutlich mehr Wärmepumpenkomponenten transportiert werden als bisher, wodurch die Transportkosten und der Energieverbrauch für den Transport gesenkt werden. Auch für die Lagerung wird weniger Platz benötigt als bisher. The combination of heat pump component and transport packaging according to the invention and the transport packaging according to the invention have the advantage that they can be stacked without fear that the heat pump component is damaged. In a transport device, for example a container or a truck, significantly more heat pump components can be transported than before, which reduces transport costs and energy consumption for transport. Less space is also required for storage than before.
Konkret wird dies erreicht durch eine Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung. Bei der Wärmepumpenkomponente handelt es sich vorzugsweise um eine Außeneinheit eines Wärmepumpensystems, grundsätzlich ist aber auch jede andere zu einem Wärmepumpensystem gehörende Wärmepumpenkomponente denkbar. Die Erfindung ist auch anwendbar auf Komponenten anderer Heizungssysteme. Die Transportverpackung umfasst einen Basisabschnitt, auf dem die Wärmepumpenkomponente angeordnet ist. Bei dem Basisabschnitt kann es sich vorzugsweise um eine Palette handeln, insbesondere eine Holzpalette. Specifically, this is achieved through a combination of heat pump components and transport packaging. The heat pump component is preferably an external unit of a heat pump system, but in principle any other heat pump component belonging to a heat pump system is also conceivable. The invention is also applicable to components of other heating systems. The transport packaging includes a base section on which the heat pump component is arranged. The base section can preferably be a pallet, in particular a wooden pallet.
Vorzugsweise ist der Basisabschnitt so ausgebildet, dass er mittels entsprechender Einrichtungen leicht transportiert werden kann, beispielsweise mittels Gabelstapler. Preferably, the base section is designed so that it can be easily transported using appropriate devices, for example using a forklift.
Die Transportverpackung umfasst ferner eine vertikale Stützstruktur, welche sich nach unten am Basisabschnitt abstützt und sich nach oben in vertikaler Richtung mindestens über die Wärmepumpenkomponente hinaus erstreckt. Da sich die vertikal Stützstruktur nach oben in vertikaler Richtung über die Wärmepumpenkomponente hinaus erstreckt, wird sichergestellt, dass eine auf der Transportverpackung angeordnete Last nicht auf die Wärmepumpenkomponente drückt, sondern ausschließlich von der vertikalen Stützstruktur getragen wird. The transport packaging further comprises a vertical support structure, which is supported downwards on the base section and extends upwards in the vertical direction at least beyond the heat pump component. Since the vertical support structure extends upwards in the vertical direction beyond the heat pump component, it is ensured that a load arranged on the transport packaging does not press on the heat pump component, but is supported exclusively by the vertical support structure.
Die vertikale Stützstruktur ist dabei vorzugsweise so dimensioniert bzw. ausgelegt, dass sie mindestens eine auf ihr angeordnete Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung tragen und transportieren kann, ohne zu knicken, beulen, brechen, etc., und zwar vorzugsweise auch bei den üblichen bei einem Transport einwirkenden dynamischen Stoßlasten. Vorzugsweise ist sie so dimensioniert und ausgelegt, dass sie mehrere auf ihr angeordnete Kombinationen aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung entsprechend tragen und transportieren kann, also ein Stapel aus solchen Kombinationen gebildet werden kann. Typischerweise kann ein solcher Stapel vier Kombinationen aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung umfassen. The vertical support structure is preferably dimensioned or designed in such a way that it can carry and transport at least one combination of heat pump component and transport packaging arranged on it without bending, denting, breaking, etc., and preferably also during normal transport acting dynamic shock loads. It is preferably dimensioned and designed so that it can carry and transport several combinations of heat pump components and transport packaging arranged on it, i.e. one Stacks can be formed from such combinations. Typically, such a stack can include four combinations of heat pump component and transport packaging.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Stützstruktur eine Mehrzahl von sich in vertikaler Richtung erstreckenden Stützabschnitten umfasst, wobei die Stützabschnitte vorzugsweise ein Holzmaterial umfassen. Typischerweise handelt es sich bei den Stützabschnitten um Holzstäbe oder flache Holzlatten. Solche Stützabschnitte sind preiswert und gestatten eine gleichmäßige und ausreichende Abstützung nach oben. In a further development it is provided that the support structure comprises a plurality of support sections extending in the vertical direction, the support sections preferably comprising a wooden material. Typically the support sections are wooden sticks or flat wooden slats. Such support sections are inexpensive and allow uniform and sufficient upward support.
Bei einer Weiterbildung hierzu ist vorgesehen, dass mindestens ein Stützabschnitt mit dem Basisabschnitt formschlüssig verbunden ist. Ein solcher Formschluss kann einfach und schnell hergestellt werden und sorgt für eine sichere Verbindung zwischen vertikalem Stützabschnitt und Basisabschnitt. In a further development of this, it is provided that at least one support section is positively connected to the base section. Such a positive connection can be produced quickly and easily and ensures a secure connection between the vertical support section and the base section.
Bei einer Weiterbildung hierzu ist vorgesehen, dass die formschlüssige Verbindung eine am Basisabschnitt befestigte und sich vertikal nach oben erstreckende Metallzunge umfasst, die in einen Schlitz des Stützabschnitts eingreift. Dies ist sehr stabil und kann einfach realisiert werden. In a further development of this, it is provided that the positive connection comprises a metal tongue attached to the base section and extending vertically upwards, which engages in a slot in the support section. This is very stable and can be easily implemented.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Wärmepumpenkomponente mit dem Basisabschnitt formschlüssig verbunden ist. Hierdurch wird insbesondere in seitlicher Richtung ein Verrutschen verhindert und damit die Wärmepumpenkomponente beim Transport vor Beschädigungen geschützt. Typischerweise hat eine Wärmepumpenkomponente vier Füße, mit denen sie am Aufstellort am Boden, beispielsweise einem Fundament, befestigt werden kann. Eine formschlüssige Verbindung dieser Füße mit dem Basisabschnitt kann beispielsweise sehr einfach durch Ausnehmungen im Basisabschnitt erreicht werden, die komplementär sind zu dem abragenden Ende der Füße. Da typische Wärmepumpenkomponenten relativ schwer sind, genügt eine vergleichsweise geringe Tiefe dieser Ausnehmungen, um den Formschluss zuverlässig herzustellen. In a further development it is provided that the heat pump component is positively connected to the base section. This prevents slipping, particularly in the lateral direction, and thus protects the heat pump component from damage during transport. Typically, a heat pump component has four feet with which it can be attached to the ground at the installation site, such as a foundation. A positive connection of these feet to the base section can, for example, be achieved very easily by means of recesses in the base section which are complementary to the projecting end of the feet. Since typical heat pump components are relatively heavy, a comparatively small depth of these recesses is sufficient to reliably establish the positive fit.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass zwischen der Wärmepumpenkomponente und dem Basisabschnitt mindestens ein Zwischenstück angeordnet ist, welches vorzugsweise aus einem MDF- oder einem Sperrholzmaterial hergestellt ist, und welches vorzugsweise mindestens auch im Bereich des Formschlusses angeordnet ist. Hierdurch kann eine zusätzliche vertikale Abstützung der Wärmepumpenkomponente gegenüber dem Basisabschnitt geschaffen werden, wodurch die Gesamtstabilität der Kombination aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung erhöht wird. Ist das Zwischenstück im Bereich des Formschlusses angeordnet, kann es schlitzartige Ausnehmungen aufweisen, die entsprechende Vorsprünge an den Füßen der Wärmepumpenkomponente hintergreifen. Durch eine Befestigung des Zwischenstücks beispielsweise mittels Schrauben oder Nägeln am Basisabschnitt wird auf diese Weise die Wärmepumpenkomponente zuverlässig am Basisabschnitt befestigt. In a further development it is provided that there is at least one between the heat pump component and the base section Intermediate piece is arranged, which is preferably made of an MDF or a plywood material, and which is preferably also arranged at least in the area of the positive connection. This can provide additional vertical support for the heat pump component relative to the base section, thereby increasing the overall stability of the combination of heat pump component and transport packaging. If the intermediate piece is arranged in the area of the positive connection, it can have slot-like recesses which engage behind corresponding projections on the feet of the heat pump component. By attaching the intermediate piece to the base section, for example using screws or nails, the heat pump component is reliably attached to the base section.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Transportverpackung ein seitliches Gehäuse umfasst, welche die Wärmepumpenkomponente seitlich umhüllt, wobei das Gehäuse vorzugsweise ein Sandwichmaterial umfasst, stärker bevorzugt ein Sandwichmaterial mit einem Wabenkern. Ein solches Gehäuse kann beispielsweise quaderförmig sein mit vier flachen vertikalen Seitenwänden. Auf diese Weise die Wärmepumpenkomponente zusätzlich vor Beschädigungen geschützt. Ein Sandwichmaterial ist dabei stabil und leicht. Beispielsweise kann das Sandwichmaterial ein Hexaco mb- Mate rial sein, welches leicht und einfach und umweltfreundlich entsorgt werden kann. In a further development it is provided that the transport packaging comprises a lateral housing which laterally encloses the heat pump component, the housing preferably comprising a sandwich material, more preferably a sandwich material with a honeycomb core. Such a housing can, for example, be cuboid with four flat vertical side walls. In this way, the heat pump component is additionally protected from damage. A sandwich material is stable and light. For example, the sandwich material can be a Hexaco mb material, which can be disposed of easily and simply in an environmentally friendly manner.
Bei einer Weiterbildung hierzu ist vorgesehen, dass das Gehäuse einen Deckel umfasst, wobei der Deckel vorzugsweise ein Kartonmaterial, stärker bevorzugt Wellpappe umfasst. Auf diese Weise wird die Wärmepumpenkomponente auch von oben geschützt. Wellpappe kann ebenfalls umweltfreundlich entsorgt werden und ist leicht. In a further development of this, it is provided that the housing comprises a lid, the lid preferably comprising a cardboard material, more preferably corrugated cardboard. In this way, the heat pump component is also protected from above. Corrugated cardboard can also be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and is lightweight.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die vertikale Stützstruktur mit dem Basisabschnitt mindestens mittelbar durch ein Befestigungsmittel befestigt ist, wobei das Befestigungsmittel vorzugsweise einen Spanngurt umfasst. Dieser kann beispielsweise aus einem PET-Material hergestellt sein. Auf diese Weise wird ein kompakter Verbund geschaffen, der zuverlässig zusammenhält. Zu der Erfindung gehört auch eine Transportverpackung für eine Wärmepumpenkomponente, welche in der Kombination der oben beschriebenen Art verwendbar ist. In a further development it is provided that the vertical support structure is fastened to the base section at least indirectly by a fastening means, the fastening means preferably comprising a tension belt. This can be made from a PET material, for example. In this way, a compact assembly is created that holds together reliably. The invention also includes a transport packaging for a heat pump component, which can be used in the combination of the type described above.
Nachfolgend wird eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügte Zeichnung erläutert. In der Zeichnung zeigen: An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the accompanying drawing. Show in the drawing:

Nachfolgend tragen funktionsäquivalente Elemente und Bereiche in allen Figuren die gleichen Bezugszeichen. Sie werden darüber hinaus im allgemeinen nur bei der erstmaligen Erwähnung im Detail erläutert. Ferner sind aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit nicht in allen Figuren sämtliche Bezugszeichen eingetragen. In Figur 1 trägt ein Stapel das Bezugszeichen 10. Er umfasst insgesamt zwei in einer vertikalen Richtung 11 aufeinander gestapelte Kombinationen 12, von denen jede eine Transportverpackung 14 und eine in der Transportverpackung 14 angeordnete und daher in Figur 1 nicht sichtbare Wärmepumpenkomponente umfasst. Below, functionally equivalent elements and areas have the same reference numbers in all figures. Furthermore, they are generally only explained in detail when they are mentioned for the first time. Furthermore, for reasons of clarity, not all reference symbols are entered in all figures. In Figure 1, a stack bears the reference number 10. It comprises a total of two combinations 12 stacked on top of one another in a vertical direction 11, each of which includes a transport packaging 14 and a heat pump component arranged in the transport packaging 14 and therefore not visible in Figure 1.
Die Transportverpackung 14 umfasst einen Basisabschnitt 16, auf der die Wärmepumpenkomponente angeordnet ist, der also die Wärmepumpenkomponente trägt. Ferner umfasst die Transportverpackung 14 eine vertikale Stützstruktur 18 vorliegend in Form von einer Mehrzahl von Stützabschnitten 20. Die Stützabschnitte 20 sind vorliegend beispielhaft als Holzlatten ausgebildet. Sie erstrecken sich von dem Basisabschnitt 16 in vertikaler Richtung 11 nach oben. The transport packaging 14 includes a base section 16 on which the heat pump component is arranged, which therefore carries the heat pump component. Furthermore, the transport packaging 14 comprises a vertical support structure 18, in the present case in the form of a plurality of support sections 20. The support sections 20 are in the present case designed, for example, as wooden slats. They extend upwards from the base section 16 in the vertical direction 11.
Zu der Transportverpackung 14 gehört ferner ein seitliches Gehäuse 22, welches die Wärmepumpenkomponente seitlich umhüllt. Das seitliche Gehäuse 22 besteht vorliegend aus vier flachen vertikalen Seitenwänden, die aus einem Sandwichmaterial hergestellt sind, beispielsweise einem Sandwichmaterial mit einem Wabenkern. Ein solches Sandwichmaterial ist beispielsweise unter den Begriffen „Hexacomb“ oder „Honeycomb“ bekannt. Das seitliche Gehäuse 22 stützt sich auf dem Basisabschnitt 16 ab. Die Transportverpackung 14 weist ferner einen auf das seitliche Gehäuse 22 aufgesetzten Deckel 24 auf, der vorzugsweise aus einem Kartonmaterial, beispielsweise aus Wellpappe hergestellt ist. The transport packaging 14 also includes a side housing 22, which laterally encloses the heat pump component. The side housing 22 here consists of four flat vertical side walls which are made of a sandwich material, for example a sandwich material with a honeycomb core. Such a sandwich material is known, for example, under the terms “hexacomb” or “honeycomb”. The side housing 22 is supported on the base section 16. The transport packaging 14 also has a lid 24 placed on the side housing 22, which is preferably made of a cardboard material, for example corrugated cardboard.
Die Stützstruktur 18 in Form der Stützabschnitte 20 ist mittels Spanngurten 26 mit dem Basisabschnitt 16 verbunden. Insoweit handelt es sich bei den Spanngurten 26 um Befestigungsmittel. Man erkennt aus Figur 1 , dass sich die Stützstruktur 18 nach oben in vertikaler Richtung 11 um eine Distanz 25 über die Oberseite des Deckels 24 und somit auch über die unterhalb von dem Deckel 24 angeordnete Wärmepumpenkomponente hinaus erstreckt. The support structure 18 in the form of the support sections 20 is connected to the base section 16 by means of tension straps 26. In this respect, the tension straps 26 are fasteners. It can be seen from Figure 1 that the support structure 18 extends upwards in the vertical direction 11 by a distance 25 beyond the top of the cover 24 and thus also beyond the heat pump component arranged below the cover 24.
Nun wird der Aufbau einer Kombination 12 aus Wärmepumpenkomponente und Transportverpackung 14 stärker im Detail unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 2-7 erläutert. Figur 2 zeigt den Basisabschnitt 16 der Transportverpackung 14, der durch eine Palette, insbesondere eine Holzpalette gebildet wird. Eine Oberseite 28 des Basisabschnitts 16 wird durch eine Mehrzahl von oberen Holzlatten 30 gebildet. In zwei von diesen Holzlatten 30 sind jeweils zwei kreisrunde Ausnehmungen 32 eingebracht, deren Tiefe geringer ist als die Dicke der Holzlatten 30. Now the structure of a combination 12 of heat pump component and transport packaging 14 will be explained in more detail with reference to Figures 2-7. Figure 2 shows the base section 16 of the transport packaging 14, which is formed by a pallet, in particular a wooden pallet. A top 28 of the base section 16 is formed by a plurality of upper wooden slats 30. Two circular recesses 32 are made in two of these wooden slats 30, the depth of which is less than the thickness of the wooden slats 30.
Die Ausnehmungen 32 dienen zur Aufnahme von insgesamt im wesentlichen kreiszylindrischen Füßen (nicht dargestellt) der Wärmepumpenkomponente. Die Ausnehmungen 32 sind insoweit komplementär zu den abragenden Enden der besagten Füße der Wärmepumpenkomponente. Auf diese Weise ist die Wärmepumpenkomponente mit dem Basisabschnitt 16 in seitlicher Richtung formschlüssig verbunden, wodurch ein Verrutschen der Wärmepumpenkomponente relativ zum Basisabschnitt 16 beispielsweise während des Transports verhindert wird. The recesses 32 serve to accommodate essentially circular cylindrical feet (not shown) of the heat pump component. The recesses 32 are complementary to the projecting ends of the said feet of the heat pump component. In this way, the heat pump component is positively connected to the base section 16 in the lateral direction, which prevents the heat pump component from slipping relative to the base section 16, for example during transport.
Wie aus Figur 3 hervorgeht, wird nach der Anordnung der Wärmepumpenkomponente auf dem Basisabschnitt 16 jeweils im Bereich der Ausnehmungen 32 und insoweit also im Bereich des Formschlusses zwischen Wärmepumpenkomponente und Basisabschnitt 16 ein Zwischenstück 34 angeordnet, welches vorzugsweise als flache Latte aus einem MDF- oder einem Sperrholzmaterial hergestellt ist. Das Zwischenstück 34 weist vorliegend beispielhaft im Bereich der Ausnehmungen 32 schlitzartige Ausnehmungen 36 auf, die entsprechende Vorsprünge an den Füßen der Wärmepumpenkomponente hintergreifen. Durch eine Befestigung des Zwischenstücks 34 beispielsweise mittels Schrauben oder Nägeln am Basisabschnitt 16 wird auf diese Weise die Wärmepumpenkomponente zuverlässig am Basisabschnitt 16 befestigt. 3, after the heat pump component has been arranged on the base section 16, an intermediate piece 34 is arranged in the area of the recesses 32 and in this respect in the area of the positive connection between the heat pump component and base section 16, which is preferably as a flat slat made of MDF or MDF Plywood material is made. In the present case, the intermediate piece 34 has, for example, slot-like recesses 36 in the area of the recesses 32, which engage behind corresponding projections on the feet of the heat pump component. By attaching the intermediate piece 34 to the base section 16, for example using screws or nails, the heat pump component is reliably attached to the base section 16.
Figur 4 zeigt das bereits eingangs erwähnte seitliche Gehäuse 22, jedoch noch ohne den Deckel 24, sodass die innerhalb des seitlichen Gehäuses 22 angeordnete Wärmepumpenkomponente sichtbar ist. Diese ist in Figur 4 mit dem Bezugszeichen 38 versehen. Bei der Wärmepumpenkomponente 38 kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Außeneinheit eines Wärmepumpensystems handeln. Man erkennt aus Figur 4, dass die Seitenwände des seitlichen Gehäuses 22 die Wärmepumpenkomponente 38 in vertikaler Richtung 11 nach oben überragen, und zwar um eine Distanz 40. Man erkennt ferner aus Figur 4, dass die Seitenwände des seitlichen Gehäuses 22 in Eckbereichen, in denen sie aneinanderstoßen, durch abwechselnd ineinandergreifende Vorsprünge 42 miteinander verzahnt und verbunden sind. Figure 4 shows the side housing 22 already mentioned at the beginning, but still without the cover 24, so that the heat pump component arranged within the side housing 22 is visible. This is provided with the reference number 38 in Figure 4. The heat pump component 38 can be, for example, an outdoor unit of a heat pump system. It can be seen from Figure 4 that the side walls of the side housing 22 protrude upwards over the heat pump component 38 in the vertical direction 11, by a distance 40. It can also be seen from Figure 4 that the side walls of the side housing 22 in corner areas in which she abut each other, are interlocked and connected by alternately interlocking projections 42.
In einer Breitenrichtung 43 gesehen ist eine Dimension des seitlichen Gehäuses 22 ist etwas geringer als eine Dimension des Basisabschnitts 16. Auf diese Weise wird auf der Oberseite 28 des Basisabschnitts 16 ein freier Randbereich geschaffen. In Eckbereichen dieses freien Randbereichs ist jeweils ein Metallbeschlag 44 angeordnet, der mit der Oberseite 28 des Basisabschnitts 16 beispielsweise durch Schrauben oder Nägel fest verbunden ist. Jeder Metallbeschlag 44 weist eine sich vertikal nach oben erstreckende Metallzunge 46 auf, deren Ebene parallel zur unmittelbar benachbarten Seitenwand des seitlichen Gehäuses 22 ist. Seen in a width direction 43, a dimension of the side housing 22 is slightly smaller than a dimension of the base section 16. In this way, a free edge region is created on the top side 28 of the base section 16. In corner areas of this free edge area, a metal fitting 44 is arranged, which is firmly connected to the top 28 of the base section 16, for example by screws or nails. Each metal fitting 44 has a vertically upwardly extending metal tongue 46, the plane of which is parallel to the immediately adjacent side wall of the side housing 22.
Wie aus Figur 5 hervorgeht, wird nun das seitliche Gehäuse 22 durch den Deckel 24 verschlossen, indem dieser einfach auf das seitliche Gehäuse 22 aufgesetzt wird. As can be seen from Figure 5, the side housing 22 is now closed by the cover 24 by simply placing it on the side housing 22.
Wie aus Figur 6 ersichtlich ist, werden nun die sich vertikal erstreckenden Stützabschnitte 20 angebracht. Diese weisen an ihrem unteren Ende jeweils einen Schlitz 48 auf. Die Stützabschnitte 20 werden nun so auf die Metallzungen 46 aufgesetzt, dass diese in die Schlitze 48 eingreifen. Auf diese Weise sind die Stützabschnitte 20 formschlüssig mit dem Basisabschnitt 16 verbunden. As can be seen from Figure 6, the vertically extending support sections 20 are now attached. These each have a slot 48 at their lower end. The support sections 20 are now placed on the metal tongues 46 so that they engage in the slots 48. In this way, the support sections 20 are positively connected to the base section 16.
Schließlich wird, wie aus Figur 7 ersichtlich ist, jeweils ein Spanngurt 26 um die oberen Holzlatten 30 des Basisabschnitts 16 und gegenüberliegende Stützabschnitte 20, die insoweit ein Paar bilden, gewickelt und verspannt bzw. unter Spannung verschweißt. Die Spanngurte können beispielsweise aus einem PET-Material hergestellt sein. Man erkennt nochmals aus Figur 7 die Distanz 25, die bereits oben im Zusammenhang mit Figur 1 erwähnt wurde. Finally, as can be seen from Figure 7, a tension belt 26 is wrapped around the upper wooden slats 30 of the base section 16 and opposite support sections 20, which form a pair, and tensioned or welded under tension. The tension straps can be made from a PET material, for example. You can see again from Figure 7 the distance 25, which was already mentioned above in connection with Figure 1.
