Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte aux échangeurs de chaleur, notamment pour véhicules automobiles.The invention relates to heat exchangers, especially for motor vehicles.
Elle concerne plus particulièrement une boîte collectrice pour échangeur de chaleur, comprenant une plaque collectrice fermée par une paroi de manière à délimiter une chambre dans laquelle débouche au moins une tubulure. Une telle boîte collectrice est connue du document
Dans une boîte collectrice de ce genre, la plaque collectrice, que l'on appelle aussi plaque à trous, possède une multiplicité de trous dans lesquels sont reçues les extrémités de tubes qui constituent le faisceau de l'échangeur de chaleur. A ces tubes sont associées des ailettes contribuant à augmenter la surface d'échange de chaleur.In a collector box of this type, the collector plate, which is also called a perforated plate, has a plurality of holes in which the tube ends which constitute the heat exchanger bundle are received. To these tubes are associated fins contributing to increase the heat exchange surface.
La plaque collectrice est fermée par une paroi de manière à délimiter une chambre qui communique avec les tubes pour permettre la circulation d'un fluide dans le faisceau.The header plate is closed by a wall so as to define a chamber that communicates with the tubes to allow the circulation of a fluid in the beam.
Habituellement, la paroi précitée est munie d'au moins une tubulure pour permettre l'entrée ou la sortie du fluide précité.Usually, the aforementioned wall is provided with at least one tubing to allow entry or exit of the aforementioned fluid.
La conception de ces tubulures pose de nombreux problèmes en pratique étant donné qu'elles doivent être placées en des endroits précis de la paroi en fonction des conditions édictées par l'implantation de l'échangeur de chaleur dans le véhicule considéré.The design of these pipes poses many problems in practice since they must be placed in specific locations of the wall according to the conditions imposed by the implementation of the heat exchanger in the vehicle in question.
En outre, la tubulure doit être conformée de manière particulière, par exemple coudée, pour présenter un embout s'étendant dans une direction donnée pour être emmanché avec un conduit souple.In addition, the tubing must be shaped in a particular manner, for example bent, to present a nozzle extending in a given direction to be fitted with a flexible conduit.
On connaît déjà des boîtes collectrices de ce genre dans lesquelles la plaque collectrice est métallique, tandis que la paroi est moulée en matière plastique avec la ou les tubulures qui lui sont associées.Collector boxes of this type are already known in which the collector plate is metallic, while the wall is molded of plastic material with the tubing or pipes associated therewith.
En ce cas, l'étanchéité entre la plaque collectrice et la paroi est assurée par l'intermédiaire d'un joint d'étanchéité, la plaque collectrice étant munie de griffes rabattues ou serties contre un rebord périphérique de la paroi.In this case, the seal between the header plate and the wall is provided by means of a seal, the header plate being provided with claws folded or crimped against a peripheral rim of the wall.
La réalisation d'une telle paroi avec au moins une tubulure associée nécessite des moules de formes complexes.The realization of such a wall with at least one associated tubing requires molds of complex shapes.
On connaît aussi des boîtes collectrices de ce genre dans lesquelles les différents éléments sont des pièces métalliques assemblées entre elles par brasage.Collector boxes of this type are also known in which the various elements are metal parts assembled together by brazing.
Là encore, cela pose des difficultés pour réaliser et implanter la tubulure en un endroit approprié, spécialement lorsque cette tubulure est coudée.Again, this poses difficulties to realize and implement the tubing in a suitable place, especially when this tubing is bent.
L'invention a notamment pour but de surmonter les inconvénients précités.The object of the invention is in particular to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
Elle propose à cet effet un ensemble d'une boîte collectrice et d'une tubulure du type défini à la revendication 1.It proposes for this purpose a set of a manifold and tubing of the type defined in
On peut ainsi réaliser tous les éléments de la boîte collectrice, y compris la tubulure, par des pièces métalliques conformées, notamment par emboutissage, qui sont ensuite assemblées par brasage.It is thus possible to realize all the elements of the manifold, including the tubing, by shaped metal parts, particularly by stamping, which are then assembled by soldering.
Ainsi, les éléments constitutifs de la boîte collectrice pourront être brasés dans un four, en même temps que le reste de l'échangeur de chaleur, ce qui simplifie notablement les opérations de fabrication.Thus, the constituent elements of the header can be brazed in an oven, along with the rest of the heat exchanger, which significantly simplifies the manufacturing operations.
Avantageusement, les deux flancs latéraux de la première partie sont généralement plans et parallèles entre eux et se raccordent perpendiculairement au fond.Advantageously, the two lateral flanks of the first part are generally planar and parallel to each other and are connected perpendicular to the bottom.
Il est avantageux que les deux flancs latéraux de la première partie comportent chacun une rainure périphérique pour la réception d'un bord longitudinal de la seconde partie. Ceci contribue à un bon maintien provisoire de la première partie et de la seconde partie entre elles.It is advantageous that the two lateral flanks of the first part each comprise a peripheral groove for receiving a longitudinal edge of the second part. This contributes to a good temporary maintenance of the first part and the second part between them.
En variante on peut procurer ce maintien provisoire par le fait que les deux flancs latéraux de la première partie comportent chacun une série de découpes délimitant des régions d'appui formées en saillie du côté intérieur pour la réception d'un bord longitudinal de la seconde partie.As a variant, this temporary support can be provided by the fact that the two lateral flanks of the first part each comprise a series of cutouts delimiting bearing regions formed projecting from the inner side for receiving a longitudinal edge of the second part. .
De préférence, ces régions d'appui sont formées chacune par emboutissage des flancs latéraux du côté intérieur.Preferably, these bearing regions are each formed by stamping the side flanks of the inner side.
Pour contribuer au maintien, il est préférable que chaque bord longitudinal de la seconde partie soit muni d'ergots en saillie propres à s'engager respectivement dans les découpes des flancs latéraux.To contribute to the maintenance, it is preferable that each longitudinal edge of the second part is provided with protruding lugs adapted to engage respectively in the cuts of the lateral flanks.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la seconde partie formant couvercle est définie par un feuillard conformé pour avoir des génératrices généralement parallèles entre elles.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the second lid part is defined by a strip shaped to have generatrices generally parallel to each other.
Les deux flancs latéraux possèdent avantageusement des prolongements respectifs en vis-à-vis, dont l'un au moins est muni d'une ouverture pour la tubulure.The two side flanks advantageously have respective extensions vis-à-vis, at least one of which is provided with an opening for the tubing.
Dans l'invention, la première partie et la seconde partie sont obtenues chacune par emboutissage et découpage d'une feuille métallique. Cette dernière est avantageusement une feuille en une matière comprenant de l'aluminium.In the invention, the first part and the second part are each obtained by stamping and cutting a metal sheet. The latter is advantageously a sheet made of a material comprising aluminum.
Sous un autre aspect, l'invention concerne un échangeur de chaleur comprenant au moins une boîte collectrice comme défini précédemment.In another aspect, the invention relates to a heat exchanger comprising at least one manifold as defined above.

On se réfère d'abord à la forme de réalisation des
La première partie 10 comporte un fond 14 qui est généralement plat et de forme rectangulaire allongée. Ce fond 14 est destiné à constituer la plaque collectrice, encore appelée "plaque à trous", de la boîte collectrice. Ce fond comporte à cet effet une pluralité de trous espacés 16 de forme allongée destinés à recevoir des tubes 18 faisant partie d'un faisceau d'un échangeur de chaleur (
La feuille comprend en outre deux flancs latéraux 22 repliés en vis-à-vis, qui sont généralement plans et parallèles entre eux. Ces flancs se raccordent sensiblement perpendiculairement au fond 14 par deux lignes de pliage 24 qui sont parallèles entre elles.The sheet further comprises two
Les flancs latéraux 22 sont de forme allongée et comportent, dans leur partie centrale, des prolongements respectifs 26 et 28 disposés en vis-à-vis et ayant chacun une forme en "chapeau de gendarme". Dans l'exemple, le prolongement 26 comporte une ouverture 30, tandis que le prolongement 28 est complètement fermé. L'ouverture 30 est de forme circulaire et est destinée à permettre l'adaptation d'une tubulure 32 de section circulaire.The lateral flanks 22 are of elongate shape and comprise, in their central part,
Les deux flancs latéraux 22 de la première partie 10 comportent chacun une rainure périphérique 34 pour la réception d'un bord longitudinal 38 de la seconde partie 12. Ceci contribue à un bon maintien provisoire de la première partie et de la seconde partie entre elles.The two
La seconde partie 12 formant couvercle est définie par un feuillard conformé pour avoir des génératrices généralement parallèles entre elles.The
Ainsi, les éléments constitutifs de la boîte collectrice pourront être brasés dans un four, en même temps que le reste de l'échangeur de chaleur, ce qui simplifie notablement les opérations de fabrication.Thus, the constituent elements of the header can be brazed in an oven, along with the rest of the heat exchanger, which significantly simplifies the manufacturing operations.
Dans la forme de réalisation des
Comme dans le cas de la forme de réalisation précédente, les deux parties peuvent être réalisées par des opérations classiques de découpage et d'emboutissage d'une feuille métallique.As in the case of the embodiment previous, the two parts can be achieved by conventional operations of cutting and stamping a metal sheet.
Dans la forme de réalisation des
Chaque bord longitudinal 90 de la seconde partie 74 est muni d'ergots 92 en saillie propres à s'engager respectivement dans les découpes 86 des flancs latéraux 78 (
On assure ainsi un maintien provisoire des deux parties 74 et 76 dans une position correcte avant brasage.This ensures a temporary hold of the two
Comme dans le cas des deux formes de réalisation précédentes, les deux parties peuvent être réalisées par des opérations classiques de découpage et d'emboutissage.As in the case of the two previous embodiments, the two parts can be made by conventional cutting and stamping operations.
Après assemblage des deux parties et de la tubulure, l'ensemble peut être brasé dans un four, en même temps que le reste de l'échangeur de chaleur à fabriquer.After assembly of the two parts and the tubing, the assembly can be brazed in an oven, along with the rest of the heat exchanger to be manufactured.
On réalise ainsi une opération de brasage pendant laquelle tous les éléments de l'échangeur de chaleur sont brasés, ce qui simplifie les opérations de fabrication.Thus, a brazing operation is carried out during which all the elements of the heat exchanger are brazed, which simplifies the manufacturing operations.
L'invention trouve une application particulière aux échangeurs de chaleur pour véhicules automobiles pour constituer par exemple un radiateur de refroidissement du moteur, ou encore un radiateur de chauffage de l'habitacle.The invention finds particular application to heat exchangers for motor vehicles to constitute for example a cooling radiator of the engine, or a heating radiator of the passenger compartment.
