My invention consists in the novel features hereinafter described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which show sevdrical portions.
eral embodiments in which in invention may be carried into effect, selec by me for purposes of illustration, and the said invention is fully disclosed in the following description and claims.
My invention is an improved heat-ex-' changer, adapted especially for the transmission of heat in heating or cooling systems. The process which I preferably employ in the manufacture of my improved heat exchangers as hereinafter described, is not claimed herein, as it forms the subject matter of my former application fir Letters Patent of the United States, filed January 31, 1931, Serial No. 512,576, of which this application is a division.
Heat exchangers of this kind ordinarily comprise a plurality offinsor plates in spaced parallel relation, and extending in all directions from a fluid conducting passage or conduit with which the fins are united.
In carrying out my present invention I provide a plurality of plates or fins formed of sheet metal, each having an aperture (or apertures) therein surrounded by integral cylindrical flange portions of difierent diameters, and connected by an annular ortion, substantially parallel to the lane 0 the late or fin, and provided with apertures ormed by cutting away a vei'ly large proportion of the metal of said an ar flange, leaving separated portions connecting the cylin- A plurality of said lates or fins are assembled in a bullt up re ation in connection with a suitable support, with the cylindrical portions in registration, and
forming inner and outer cylindrical I'noldwalls, between which a suitable casting metal is poured and passes down throughthe apertures in the annular flanges of the several plates or fins, forming when cooled a cylindrical cast wall between said cylindrical flanges, in which the connecting portions of said annular bedded or fused, and connecting the plates or fins to form a heat exchanging unit. It
will be understood that the cy in rical porfree from one flanges are interlocked and em tions of smaller diameter form the inner mold wall,v while those of lar er diameter form the outer mold. wall, thus using, if desired, with the use of mold mem the inner and outer faces of the tubular casting, and leaving the ace witliin the c lindrlcal flanges of sm er diameter entirely end to the other, and I prefer to heat the interior mold wall so formed, by means such as highly heated air or-gases, or products of combustion, me'ans,'during the casting, to assist in insuring the proper flow of the cast metal through the apertures in the annular flanges of the plates or fins, and around the connecting portions thereof. The lates or fins ma be held in spaced relation by one or both 0 the cylindrical portions thereof, and maybe provided with stamped-up spacing devices at a distancefrom the cylindrical portions, if desired. The plates or fins may also be conreceive connecting bolts for holding them in assembled relation, castin operation, which bolts can be removed aftert ecasting operation. The unit is referably provided at each end of the tulEular wall formed by the inner and outer cylindrical portions and thecast portions therebetween, with internally threaded collars,
pressed in position prior to the casting operation or thereafter, and plain'end' which may be rs conforming to prior to and during the no or other heating 'veniently provided with registering holes to 1 portion omitted and indicated in, dotted lines,
showing a plurality of plates or fins, assembled in association with a bottom mold member, ready for pouring the casting metal.

Fig.5 is a side view, partly in section, and partly broken away, of a completed unit, constructed, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
Fig. 6 is a plan view of another modified form of plate or fin.
Fig. 7 is a sectional view on of Fig. 6.
In carrying out my invention I form a plurality of plates or fins, 1, one form of which I have indicated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, and which are preferably pressed or stamped from sheet metal such as copper, aluminum, iron or steel, for example, and which may be circular or rectangular, or of any other the line 7-7 desired form. Each plate is preferably pro-.
vided with a centrally located aperture, 1m, and the marginal portions surrounding said apertures are pressed so as to form two cylindrical flanges, 2 and 4, respectively, substantially perpendicular to the plane of the late, of different diameters, and connected y an annular flange, 3, extending from one cylindrical flange to the other. The flange 2, of greater diameter, extends from the main body of the plate, 1, to the outer edge of the annular flange, 3, and the cylindrical flange 4, extends in the same direction from the inner edge of said annular flange, 3, in the form shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, forming annular steps, the cylindrical flanges, 2 and 4, being of the same length axially corresponding with the spacing desired between the plates. The annular flange, 3, is provided with large apertures 5, formed by cutting away a large proportion of the flange, leaving narrow separated portions, 5a, connecting the cylindrical flanges, 2 and 4. The plates, 1, are preferably provided with auxiliary spacing elements, located at a distance from the cylindrical portions, and these may be formed by portions of the plate bent perpendicularly thereto, for example, by struck up lugs or projections, 6; as shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3. The plates, 1, are also'preferably provided with a plurality of registering bolt holes, 7, to receive clamping bolts, 8, for holding the plates in assembled relation.
A plurality of these plates suflicient to form a fin unit of desired length, are assembled with the inner and outer cylindrical ortions, 2 and 4, in registration, and with t eir bolt holes, 7, (where these are provided) also in registration, so as to form a built up structure, which is supported in vertical position upon a supporting plate,'indicated at 9, provided preferably with a central aperture, 10, of the same diameter as the inner cylindrical flanges of the plates, and having an annular recess, 11, in its upper face, coaxial with said aperture to receive the outer cylindrical flange, 2, and annular flange, 3, of the lowermost plate of the series, indicated at 1a, which will preferably be formed with the inner cylindrical flan e omitted, or renioved therefrom. In Fig. 1, I have shown one of the connecting bolts, 8, extending through the registering bolt holes in the plates and having a threaded portion to engage a threaded aperture, 12, in the supporting plate, 9. Any desired number of connecting bolts may be used as desired, and they will hold the plates in assembled relation as shown in Fig. 1, the inner cylindrical portions, 4, forming a continuous interior mold wall, and the outer cylindrical portions forming a continuous exterior mold wall, the spaces between said mold walls being connected throughout the length of the built up structure by the apertures, 5, in the annular desired way, either before or after the casting operation. It will be seen that in the built up unit the central longitudinal aperture is entirely unobstructed so that any desired heating means can be introduced therein during the casting operation to facilitate the flow of the cast metal and prevent its cooling too soon by contact with the plates. Any desired form of heating means maybe employed to maintain the plates, and particularly the inner mold walls, and the adjacent portions of the plates at the desired temperature.
In the drawings I have illustrated, in Fig. 1, a gas burner, 14, located below the supporting plate, 9, and discharging its products of combustion, and if necessary the flame itself upwardly through the central passage within the inner mold walls. This will heat all portions of the plate and will heat the lower plates to a greater extent than those near the upper end, which will first come into contact with the casting metal, thus compensating for the loss of heat in the casting metal as it flows toward the bottom of the mold. I do not limit myself, however, to this form of heating means.
The castin metal ma -be of any suitable kind. I pre er to ernp oy .a casting metal having a lower fusing or melting point than the metal from which 'the plates are formed, I find it desirable to use aluminum or aluminum alloy, as the casting metal, in which case the plates are conveniently made of copper, sheet iron, or steel, or aluminum alloy of igher melting point than the casting alloy.

In t re the pla 101, z a s before dos c i'ibed, except that the innercylindrical flange, 104, of smaller diameter, is bent backward from the annular flange, 103, and lies on the same side of it as the cylindrical portion, 102, of
larger diameter. In assembling the plates, these cylindrical portions space the plates and form inner and outer mold walls, as previously described. It will be possible in using i also by having the edges of the cylindrical rtions, 102 and 104 remote from the an ar flange, 103, separated a slightly greater distance than they are at the opposite edges of the flange, 103, and making 104 of slightly greater depth than the auxiliary spacing elements, 106, to slightly nest the lates with the channel portion formed b flanges, 102, 103, 104, of one inserted slightly; into the channel adjacent p te, and thus assisting preventing any esca metal between plates and stifienmg the structure. This nesting of the plates is illustratedjin Fig. 4 but is not essential to the use of f plates.
In Figs. 6 and 7, in which the corresponding parts are given the same reference numerals with the addition of 200, I have shown another modified form of plate, 201, which is so rectangular in form and has two opposite edges bent at right'angles on the same faceof the plate to form auxlhary acing elements, 206, the other portions 0 the plate being formed as shown in Fig. 1..

I prefer, however,'to form them as shown, as in many instances the comparatively small dimensions of the lates w1ll permit them to be stain ed, presse or formed from scrap plate or at er. waste material, economy of production.
