Definitions
- heat exchangers formed of a plural of stacked heat transfer plates formed with two pairs of openings, and with gaskets positioned in gasket grooves to seal respectively the heat exchanging area from the externals, and from one set of the pair of openings.
- the object of the present invention is to introduce a gasket and a gasket fixing method to ensure a correct and secure positioning, and further that could be used in existing standard heat transfer plates, that thus would not require modification that could affect the stability of the heat exchanger, the heat transfer plates and the gasket positioning.
- a prior publication, US patent filing no. 20110259561 discloses a heat exchanger plate for a plate heat exchanger, where the heat exchanger plate includes a gasket groove extending in the edge region outside the regions and round the ports, whereby the gasket groove accommodates a gasket for sealing abutment against an adjacent heat exchanger plate in the plate heat exchanger where the gasket groove creates at least a recess of the heat transfer region along each side of the heat transfer region and that the recess enables a clip-on tab to be securely fastened to an edqe region of the heat exchanqer plate at the recess.
- the click-on tap is positioned purely at an upper part of said main portion of the gasket, such as at the upper half, or the upper third, or the upper fourth.
- said click-on tap comprise a first portion projecting from said main portion and being formed with a recess at its lower surface adapted to fit over a projection formed in the edge region, and a second portion adapted to reach out of outer edge region.
- said projection is a wall section connecting two of the tops, said wall section further separating the gasket groove from the valley between said two tops.
- Some heat transfer plates are with such wall sections which both induces rigidness of the heat transfer plate in edge region, but also forms a continuous outer wall section of the gasket groove against which the gasket can lean and forms a barrier against the gasket being pushed outwards. In the embodiment there thus is no requirement for modification in that the first portion simply extend over the wall section.
- said second portion comprise a part reaching around and under the end face of the heat transfer plate.
- the end face between two neighbouring tops is closed where the part further reaches up at the inner side of the closed end face (54) into the inside chamber (55) formed under the top (51).
- said second portion comprise two parts reaching into the inside chambers of the two neighbouring tops of a valley, where said first portion is positioned within said valley.
- a wall section is formed in said edge region connecting two of the tops, said wall section further separating the gasket groove from the valley between said two tops, wherein said method includes a step of positioning said first portion over said wall section.
- said end face between two neighbouring tops is closed, and where the method further comprises a step of dragging the part under said end face to position said part at the inner side of the closed end face into the inside chamber formed under the top.
- FIG. 1 is a sideview of a typical construction of a plate heat exchanger (1).
- the plate heat exchanger (1) comprises a plurality of heat transfer plates (10) stacked on top of each other. Inlets and outlets (2, 3) is connected, and the stack of heat transfer plates (10) may be positioned between top (4) and bottom (5) plates.
- Fig. 2 illustrates the heat transfer plates (10), which are formed with patterns (not shown in any of the figures) such that flow paths are formed between each set of neighbouring heat transfer plates (10) defining heat exchanging areas (11). Openings (20) and (21) are formed in the heat transfer plates (10) to connected to the inlets and outlets (2, 3)) for fluids to these flow paths. Gaskets (100) are positioned between the heat transfer plates (10) in gasket grooves (40) formed in the heat transfer plates (10).
- the gasket (100) is arranged at an edge portion of the heat transfer plate (10) to seal the flow paths and at an area around the openings (20, 21) to seal pairs of the openings, such that only two of them (20) have flow access to the flow path formed at one side of the heat transfer plate, while the other two (21) are sealed therefrom.
- the gasket (100) Enclosed by the gasket (100) is the heat exchanging area (11), where a hotter fluid in the flow paths at the one side of a heat transfer plate (10) to the colder fluid in the flow paths at the opposite side, these flow paths being sealed from each other.
- pattern(s) (51, 52) are formed, such as corrugated pattern(s), comprising a pattern of tops (51) and valleys (52).
- Fig. 3 illustrates a section of the gasket (100) with a main portion (102) positioned in the gasket groove (40), and further showing a section of an outer edge region (50) of the heat transfer plate (10).
- the figure illustrates an embodiment of the present invention, where a click-on tap (101) extends from said main portion (102).
- the click-on tap (101) comprise a first portion (103) projecting from said main portion (102) and positioned within a valley (52), and a second portion (104) adapted to reach out of outer edge region (50).
- At least the valley (52) where the first portion (103) is positioned in the outer edge region (50) is formed a projection (53) projecting against the first portion (103) that thereby reaches from the main portion (102), over said projection (53) and continuing to the second portion (104).
- part of the main portion (102) thus rests on the projection (53) and part on the bottom of the valley (52).
- the projection (53) is a wall section connecting two of the tops (51), said wall section (53) further separating the gasket groove (40) from the valley (52) between said two tops (51).
- This is a classic construction of heat transfer plates (10), where such a 'comb'-shaped outer edge region (50) is formed having an inner side being the outer surface of the gasket groove (40) and preventing the gasket from being pushed out due to the fluid pressures.
- the present gasket (100) thus also could be used in such standard transfer plates (10) without having to modify them in any manner, or to make specially designed patterns in the outer edge region (50) for the positioning and attachment of click-on taps (101).
- the second portion (104) comprising a part (106) reaching around and under the end face (12) of the heat transfer plate (10).
- said second portion (104) comprise two parts (106) reaching into the inside chambers (55) of the two neighbouring tops (51) of a valley (52), said first portion (103) positioned within said valley (52).
- a plural of such click-on taps (101) is position at some intervals through the whole circumference of the gasket (100), thus securing it to all sides of the heat transfer plate (10).
- the second portion (104) is seen to comprise two parts (106) reaching into the inside chambers (55) formed under the two neighbouring tops (51) of a valley (52), said first portion (103) positioned within said valley (52).
- Fig. 4 shows essentially the same as fig. 3, but in a different view and disclosing closed end faces (54) between two neighbouring tops (51), the end faces (56) between neighbouring valleys (52) still being open.
- the parts (106) of the gaskets then further is shaped not only such that they are positioned in the chambers (55), but also reaches up at the inner side surface wall of the closed end face (54).
- Fig. 5 shows a front view of a section of three heat transfer plates (10) stacked on top of each other, such that a valley (52) of an upper plate (10) connects to a top (51) of a lower plate etc.
- the front view of the first portion (103) of the gasket (100) is seen protruding out of the opening of a valley (52), and the second portion (104) extending along the end faces (12) of the heat transfer plates (12) and having the parts (106) reaching into the back sides of the closed end faces (54) of the tops (51) and up along its inner surfaces.
- the second portions (104) also have parts reaching up along the outer surface of the closed end faces (54). In both cases the parts (106) and (104) may be in contact with the closed end face (54) surfaces.
- portions (106) to be secured against movement in the outwards direction relative to the inner surfaces of the closed end faces (54), they also may be secured against movement in the inwards direction by the outer surface of the closed end face (54) of the lower top (51) connected to the valley (52) where the first portion (103) is positioned.
- Figs. 6A and 6B illustrates the side views of the sections A-A and B-B from fig. 5.
- the wall (53) forming barrier between the valley (52) and the gasket groove (40) seen in the middle of the three heat transfer plates (10), this also shown with the gasket (100) having a click-on tap (101) first portion (103) positioned over the wall (53) and to the bottom of the valley (52) to the second portion (104) reaching out of the open end face (56).
- the second portion (104) further contacts the outer surface of the closed end face (54) of the lower heat transfer plate (10), as also discussed previously.
- Fig. 6B shows the position B-B of fig. 5 where part of the second portion (104) is seen and the portion (106) reaching into the chamber (55) up in contact with the inner surface of the closed end face (54).
- the figures 4 and 6A also shows another feature of an embodiment, that the click-on tap (101) is positioned purely at an upper part of said main portion (102) of the gasket (100), such as at the upper half, or the upper third, or the upper fourth.
- This enables the lower part of the main portion (102) to rest against the outer of the surfaces (41) of the gasket groove (40), whereas the upper positioned first portion (103) thus reaches over the surface (41) which also is a part of the projection (53), and over the projection (or wall) (53).
- the closed end face (54) is formed by shaping the material forming the heat transfer plate (10).
- Figs. 7A and 7B illustrate a further feature of the click-on tap (101), being an upper projection (107) on the first portion (103) which could apply to any of the previous embodiment.
- the upper projection (107) then will reach into a projection formed in the upper connected heat transfer plate (10), which is not illustrated. This assists not only in fixing the gasket (100), but also by increasing the thickness of the first portion (103) making it more solid.
- Fig. 8 is a side view of a cross section of three stacked heat transfer plates with the click-on tap of figs. 7A, B.
- Fig. 9 illustrate a further embodiment, where the click-on tap (101) includes two (or even more) first portions (103) connected by one common second portion (104).
- the respective two portions (103) of the figure will be positioned at each side of a top (51).
- the first portions (103) are formed with recesses (105), but and in an alternative embodiment the one has a recess (105) whereas the other has not.
- the gasket (100) includes a mix of click-on taps (101) according to the different embodiments, and the heat transfer plate (10) is formed accordingly. This e.g. includes that some are formed as in fig. 3, whereas one or more of the others are formed as in figs. 7A, 7B and 8.
