摘要:
A heat exchanger comprising a core assembly having a plurality of tubes connected by an array of fins, with ends of the tubes extending from the fin array on at least one side of the core assembly and resilient, polymeric grommets disposed around the tube ends. The heat exchanger includes a tank portion for receiving fluid entering or leaving the core assembly and a header portion having openings to receive the tube ends and grommets to create a sealed, fluid-tight tube-to-header joint. There is provided a reinforcing member across the opening of the tube ends extending from the tube end opening to the portion of the tube end around which the grommet is disposed without substantially extending into the fin array portion of the core assembly. The header portion comprises a substantially planar base having openings therein with side and end walls extending out of the plane of the base and connected by one or more fluid-tight welds to the tank portion. The side and end walls extend a distance sufficient to dissipate heat generated in making the welds and keep the heat generated from adversely affecting sealing ability of the grommets when the welds are made between the tank and header portion with the tube ends and grommets received in the header portion openings.

A heat exchanger having a manifold defined by a plurality of connected closure pieces. A corner of the manifold is defined by the connected joint of three closure pieces, where one closure piece has a bent edge abutting an end of a second closure piece adjacent a generally flat section of a third closure piece. The bent edge of the one closure piece adjacent the manifold corner is a bend in a thin portion of the one closure piece, where the thin portion has a sheet thickness which is less than the sheet thickness of the adjacent portions of the one closure piece. Multiple corners of the manifold can be formed in this manner by thinning the thin and bending the portion, then connecting the closure pieces using solder to form a seal in the open cross section at the corners.

Oil passages 113 through which oil passes are formed with plates 111, 112 composed of aluminum or an aluminum alloy in an oil cooler, according to the present invention, that is a heat exchanger with an extended life. Moreover, fins 123a composed of a material having a corrosion potential more negative than those of the plates 111, 112 are arranged in cooling water passages 123 through which cooling water, for exchanging heat with oil, passes. A sacrificial corrosive layer 301 having a corrosion potential more negative those of the plates 111, 112 and the fins 123a is formed on each of the surfaces on the sides of the cooling water passages 123 of the plates 111, 112. As a result, the sacrificial corrosive layer 301 is preferentially corroded, and not only the plates 111, 112 but also the fins 123a can be protected. Consequently, the pressure-proof strength of the oil cooler can be maintained, and the product life can be improved.

A heat exchanger element has at least two stacked metal sheets connected to one another such that flow channels are formed between facing sides of the metal sheets. The flow channels allow flow of a heat exchanger medium therethrough. The metal sheets are made of a reactive metal and are connected by electron beam welding in vacuum. The heat exchanger elements are manufactured by introducing at least two metal sheets into a hermetically sealed vacuum chamber and partially connecting by electron beam welding in vacuum the at least two metal sheets to one another to form an intermediate product. The intermediate product is further processed to build a heat exchanger element.

A clamshell heat exchanger panel has a pocket formed in an edge of a land portion of the panel so that a fastener can be inserted into the pocket, with its axis in the plane of the heat exchanger panel. This allows attachments to be made directly to the exchanger panel without affecting the integrity of the gas-carrying conduit portion of the panel. The pocket is made by forming mirror image indentions in the land portions of the two sides of a sheet metal workpiece such that, when the two sides are folded together, the indentions cooperate to form the pocket. Openings can also be formed through the land portions of the two sides so that, upon a folding together, the openings define an opening into the pocket.

Welds (111a) are provided in areas that are offset from curved portions (111b) where stress concentration is likely to occur. This allows excess stress to be inhibited to occur at the welds at the time of tube enlargement. Therefore, even if the welds are softened and proof stress (mechanical strength) is reduced at the time of welding, as the stress occurring at the welds at the time of the tube enlargement can be prevented from exceeding the proof stress (allowable stress) of the welds, the welded tubes can be adopted in a radiator in which the tubes (111) and the fins (112) are joined together mechanically by tube enlargement. As a result, the manufacturing cost of the tubes can be reduced in comparison with the case when seamless tubes are adopted as the tubes.

A heat exchanger and manufacturing method thereof, include a plurality of radiating pins which are aligned at a predetermined interval and a plurality of refrigerant tubes which are positioned to be penetrated among the radiating pins and through which refrigerant passes. In addition, the refrigerant tubes are mutually connected by the connection pipes, inflow/discharge pipes are respectively connected with the refrigerant tubes of one side, and connection portions of the refrigerant tubes and connection pipes and connection portions of the inflow/discharge pipes and the refrigerant tubes are simultaneously joined by a melting processing. Accordingly, the heat exchanger can reduce a manufacturing process and cost, by simultaneously joining a connection portion of the refrigerant tubes and connection pipes and connection portion of the inflow pipe and discharge pipe, by a melting processing.

An evaporator assembly and method of making the assembly wherein a refrigerant flow path is created that covers a large area of the back of either one or two evaporator pans. The refrigerant conduit includes a plurality of elongated sections that are non-circular, for example, rectangular, in cross-section. The sections are sized and spaced so as that refrigerant flow therethrough covers substantially all of the backs of the evaporator pans. The sections are formed with either tubes or ridges. The evaporator assembly is made by using bonding processes and/or die casting processes.

A heat exchanger and method of making a heat exchanger which includes providing a header having openings adapted to receive a plurality of tubes. The tubes are inserted into the header openings, then, substantially uncured fluid sealing material is applied to at least the inner surfaces of the header openings. The inner surfaces of the header openings and the outer surfaces of the tubes are connected by the sealing material. The method further includes curing the sealing material after the tubes are inserted into the header openings. The sealing material thus provides a flexible, bonded, liquid tight, tube-to-header joint.
