Abstract

In a nozzle for an air conditioning installation or the like for ventilating rooms, having a mounting frame with an opening and a nozzle pivotably mounted therein and which has an extension part with a contour substantially closing the opening, the extension part is a widened extension region constructed in one piece with the nozzle, which leads to manufacturing advantages and wider possibilities of use.

Claims

1. A nozzle means for an air conditioning installation or the like for ventilating rooms, the nozzle means comprising:

a circular mounting frame including a cover plate having a ring flange on an outer circumference thereof;

a circular opening provided in the cover plate of the circular mounting frame;

a nozzle extending through the circular opening, with the nozzle including a nozzle jacket, said nozzle jacket having a conical nozzle portion tapering toward an outer end thereof and being adapted to be cut-off;

a shoulder-like region connected to the conical nozzle portion, said shoulder-like region beginning with respect to the conical nozzle portion at a distance from the cover plate of the mounting frame roughly corresponding to a vertical spacing of a pivot point of the nozzle relative to the mounting frame, a diameter of the shoulder-like region in a plane of the cover plate slightly less than a diameter of the opening of the mounting frame;

a substantially cylindrical extension region of the nozzle casing is connected to the shoulder region, with a diameter of a substantially cylindrical extension region substantially corresponding to a diameter of the circular opening of the cover plate;

pivot holding means are fixed to an inside of the cover plate and are formed as legs extending in the same direction as the nozzle in the extension region of the nozzle casing, with diagonally facing holes being provided in the pivot holder means for accommodating pivot means for enabling the nozzle to be pivotably mounted to the mounting frame about the pivot point defined by the pivot means.

2. A nozzle means according to claim 1, wherein the pivot holder means are welded to the cover plate.

3. A nozzle means according to claim 1, wherein the pivot holder means are punched out as one piece flaps of the mounting frame bent out of a plane of the cover plate inwardly into the frame.

4. A nozzle means according to one of claim 3, wherein an inlet frame is provided with a whirl-producing grid means having sheet metal guide means inclined relative to an axis of symmetry of the nozzle.
