SUBSTANCE: heating radiator has a coiled tubular member, having several straight-line sections and radius adapters located one above another in the vertical plane, a male thread is made at the ends of the member, and the coupling device is made in the form of a coupling nut and a nipple, the latter has a supporting shoulder, on one side of the shoulder the nipple has a thread, and on the other side it is smooth. The threaded side of the nipple is connected to the heating system, for example, through an adapter with the aid of a special wrench and a hole made under the shoulder for the wrench, on the opposite side the nipple is made smooth with annular grooves. The length of the nipple smooth surface exceeds the length of the thread at the ends of the heat exchanger pipe. The nipple annular grooves accommodate packing rings contacting with the wall of the pipe cavity of the heat exchanger. With its smooth surface the nipple together with the packing rings is installed in the pipe cavity of the heat exchanger, pressed to its end by the nipple shoulder through a flat spacer, and fastened by means of a coupling nut. Connected to the radius adapter of the heat exchanger pipe is a support for attachment of the heating apparatus to the room wall. EFFECT: simplified mounting of the heating radiator and enhanced convenience of everyday use. 5 cl, 3 dwg
