Definitions

  • the present invention provides a heat exchanger including a number of tubes providing a flow path for a first fluid.
  • a fin can be supported between two of the tubes and positioned along a flow path for a second fluid. Together, the fin and the plurality of tubes can at least partially define a heat exchanger core.
  • First and second tanks can be positioned adjacent to opposite ends of the tubes.
  • An elastically deformable side part can extend across the heat exchanger core and can include a pair of integrally formed caps for closing openings in the first and second tanks.
  • the connecting structure of the present invention can also or alternatively include contoured portions which are formed integrally with at least one of the clamshell tank members and are directed inwardly into an interior of the tank.
  • the contoured portions can be constructed in such a way that the clamshell tank members can be connected, for example, by plugging the clamshell tank members together to pre-connect the two clamshell tank members.
  • One independent object of the present invention is to provide a heat exchanger that can maintain two different working fluids in separate circuits.
  • the present invention provides a heat exchanger including a number of tubes providing a flow path for a first fluid and a fin supported between two of the tubes and positioned along a flow path for a second fluid. Together, the fin and the tubes can at least partially defining a core.
  • the heat exchanger can also include first and second tanks positioned adjacent to opposite ends of the tubes and a side part extending across the core between the first and second tanks and including outwardly extending projections engageable in the ends of the tubes.
  • Fig. 20 is an exploded perspective view of a portion of the heat exchanger shown in Fig. 18;
  • Fig. 35 is a perspective view of the first clamshell tank member of the heat exchanger shown in Fig. 31 ;
  • prior art heat exchangers can be assembled in the following way.
  • Flat tubes 1 with fins 2 are alternately stacked to form a heat exchanger core. While the heat exchanger is operating, one fluid can flow through the flat tubes 1, and another fluid (e.g., air) can flow across the fins 2.
  • Headers 3 and tanks 4 with projections 10 are secured to opposite ends of the flat tubes 1.
  • the tanks 4 are substantially box shaped and the headers 3 are substantially rectangularly shaped, but, in other embodiments the headers 3 and/or the tanks 4 can also or alternatively have other shapes and configurations.
  • Fig. 4 shows a top view of a portion of a side part 20.
  • Expansion webs 25 located on opposite sides of the expansion gaps 23 connect the closure caps 21 to the central part 22.
  • cutouts or recesses 24 are present in order to permit the webs 25 to be compressed during assembly of the heat exchanger.
  • the webs 25 are formed to be as thin as possible so that unnecessarily high forces are not required to compensate for fabrication tolerances. During operation in a motor vehicle, the webs 25 can then also tear, which can be permitted in a controlled manner.
  • Figs. 6 and 7 show a method of assembling the heat exchanger.
  • the flat tubes 1 and the fins 2 are stacked alternately one on the other in order to form the heat exchanger core, and the headers 3 are then pushed onto the ends of the flat tubes (see above).
  • the projections 10 of the tanks 4 are inserted into the protruding ends 11 of the flat tubes 1.
  • the heat exchanger which is mounted in this way can be stable by itself.
  • closure caps 21 of the side parts 20 close the lateral openings in the tanks 4.
  • the closure caps 21 are attached to the tanks 4 by the clamps 27, 28 so that they cannot slip.
  • the expansion gaps 23 compensate for potential fabrication tolerances by either compressing or expanding the webs 25.
  • the projections 130 can be received in and engage the protruding portions 105 of the tubes 102.
  • four projections 130 are seated in the flat tube ends 101.
  • the projections 130 can have a tapered or slightly conical shape, so that, on the one hand, they can slide more easily into the ends of the flat tubes 101 and, on the other hand, so that they can also abut in a seal forming fashion so that good soldering, brazing, or welding is also achieved.
  • the first tank member 331 illustrated in Figs. 32 and 35-36 includes an exterior wall 372 having an elongated base 373, a first receiving portion 374, and a first connecting flange 375.
  • the first tank member 331 also includes a first bump or contoured portion 377 extending inwardly from the exterior wall 372 into the interior space and, when the heat exchanger is assembled, toward the second tank member 332.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne, entre autres, un échangeur de chaleur qui comprend une pluralité de tubes présentant un circuit d'écoulement d'un premier liquide; une nervure disposée entre deux desdits tubes le long d'un circuit d'écoulement d'un second liquide. Ensemble, la nervure et la pluralité de tubes délimitent au moins partiellement un noyau de l'échangeur de chaleur. L'échangeur de chaleur peut également comprendre un premier et un second réservoir jouxtant des extrémités opposées de la pluralité de tubes, et une pièce latérale à déformation élastique qui s'étend sur toute la largeur du noyau de l'échangeur de chaleur et présente une paire de capsules intégralement formées servant à fermer les ouvertures dans le premier et le second réservoir.
