Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Kraftfahrzeugküh­ler, bestehend aus Rohren und Rippen, dem sogenannten Kühlernetz, sowie aus einem oberen und einem unteren Wasserkasten und Seitenteilen, die beiderseits des Küh­lernetzes und zwischen den Wasserkästen angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a motor vehicle radiator, consisting of tubes and fins, the so-called cooler network, and of an upper and a lower water tank and side parts, which are arranged on both sides of the cooler network and between the water tanks.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Kühler des gleichen Typs in verschiedene Fahrzeugmodelle der glei­chen Kategorie, aber mit unterschiedlichen Konstrukti­onsmerkmalen, die unterschiedliche Methoden des Einbaus in die Fahrgestelle der verschiedenen Modelle erfor­dern, einzubauen, d.h., es soll eine möglichst univer­sell verwendbare Befestigungsmöglichkeit für derartige Kühler der eingangs genannten Art gefunden werden.The invention has for its object to install coolers of the same type in different vehicle models in the same category, but with different design features that require different methods of installation in the chassis of the different models, that is, it should be a universally usable mounting option for such coolers of the type mentioned above can be found.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die Seitenteile des Kühlers je aus einem etwa U-förmigen Profil aus Metall gebildet sind, und zwar je mit einer ebenen Ba­sis und abgewinkelten Seitenwänden geringer Höhe, wobei die Seitenteile jeweils so an das Kühlernetz angepaßt sind, daß sie die Seitenbereiche des Kühlernetzes in voller Höhe umfassen, daß die Seitenteile Mittel zur Befestigung am Kühlernetz und Mittel zu Befestigung an den Wasserkästen sowie Mittel zur Befestigung von ver­schiedenen Fahrzeugteilen bzw. Fahrzeugzubehör aufwei­sen. Hieraus ergibt sich der Vorteil, daß man eine ge­ringere Anzahl von Kühlerarten benötigt, von der jede dazu geeignet ist, in mehrere verschiedene Fahrzeugty­pen eingebaut zu werden, seien es Personen- oder Nutz­fahrzeuge oder andere.This object is achieved in that the side parts of the cooler are each formed from an approximately U-shaped profile made of metal, each with a flat base and angled side walls of low height, the side parts being adapted to the cooler network in such a way that they the side areas of the radiator network include in full that the side parts have means for fastening to the radiator network and means for fastening to the water tanks and means for fastening various vehicle parts or vehicle accessories. This has the advantage that a smaller number of types of coolers is required, each of which is suitable for being installed in several different types of vehicles, be they passenger or commercial vehicles or others.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung (gemäß Anspruch 2) sind die Mittel zur Befestigung am Kühlernetz als Lappen bzw. Klauen ausgebildet, die in die Seitenflä­chen des Netzes eingreifen und die aus der Innenseite der Basis des Seitenteils, vorzugsweise durch Stanzen, herausgedrückt sind. Das Seitenteil wird somit ohne weitere Hilfsmittel, d.h. außer den genannten Klauen bzw. Lappen mit dem Rippenblock verkrallt, d.h. form­schlüssig verbunden.In a further embodiment of the invention (according to claim 2), the means for attachment to the radiator network are designed as tabs or claws which engage in the side surfaces of the network and which are pressed out of the inside of the base of the side part, preferably by stamping. The side part is thus without further aids, i.e. in addition to the claws or lobes clawed to the rib block, i.e. positively connected.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung (gemäß Anspruch 3) bestehen die Mittel zur Befestigung der Seitenteile am oberen Wasserkasten einerseits aus abgebogenen End­stücken bzw. Laschen, die am Ende des Seitenteils ange­ordnet und einstückig mit diesem ausgebildet sind, und andererseits aus einem Riegelverschluß, der ebenfalls am Seitenteil angeordnet ist, in den Wasserkasten bzw. dessen Rohrboden eingreift und durch geeignete Arre­ tiermittel, vorzugsweise eine Vernietung fixierbar ist. Der Riegel des Riegelverschlusses greift somit in den nach innen vorspringenden Teil des Rohrbodens des obe­ren Wasserkasten ein, während die Laschen an der Außen­seite des Rohrbodens anliegen - somit liegt das obere Ende des Seitenteils an zwei Seiten des Rohrbodens an und gewährleistet eine feste und spielfreie Verbindung zwischen beiden Teilen.In a further embodiment of the invention (according to claim 3), the means for fastening the side parts to the upper water tank consist on the one hand of bent end pieces or tabs which are arranged at the end of the side part and are formed integrally therewith, and on the other hand of a bolt lock, which is also on Side part is arranged, engages in the water tank or its tube sheet and by suitable arrays animal means, preferably riveting can be fixed. The bolt of the bolt lock thus engages in the inwardly projecting part of the tube sheet of the upper water tank, while the tabs rest on the outside of the tube sheet - thus the upper end of the side part rests on two sides of the tube sheet and ensures a firm and play-free connection between both parts.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung (gemäß Anspruch 4) bestehen die Mittel zur Befestigung des Seitenteils am unteren Wasserkasten aus einem abge­bogenen und leicht abgewinkelten Endstück am Seiten­teil, welches durch Kippen in den unteren Wasserkasten bzw. dessen Rohrboden eingefügt wird. Der Rohrboden des unteren Wasserkastens weist ebenfalls aufgrund einer umlaufenden Nut bzw. Rinne einen nach innen vorsprin­genden Teil auf, an dessen Innenseite das Endstück des Seitenteils fest anliegt.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention (according to claim 4), the means for fastening the side part to the lower water tank consist of a bent and slightly angled end piece on the side part, which is inserted into the lower water tank or its tube sheet by tilting. The tube plate of the lower water tank also has an inwardly projecting part due to a circumferential groove or groove, on the inside of which the end piece of the side part is firmly seated.

Schließlich sieht eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfin­dung (gemäß Anspruch 5) vor, daß die Mittel zur Befe­stigung von vielen verschiedenen Fahrzeugteilen bzw. Fahrzeugzubehör als Öffnungen in der ebenen Basis des Seitenteils ausgebildet sind. Damit ergibt sich eine Vielzahl von Befestigungspunkten für die bezüglich ih­rer Befestigung verschieden ausgebildeten Fahrzeugtei­le.Finally, a further embodiment of the invention (according to claim 5) provides that the means for fastening many different vehicle parts or vehicle accessories are designed as openings in the flat base of the side part. This results in a large number of fastening points for the vehicle parts which are designed differently with regard to their fastening.

Beiderseits des Kühlernetzes 2 und zwischen den Wasserkästen 3 und 4 sind Seitenteile 1 angeordnet.The cooler according to the invention consists on the one hand of a so-called cooler network 2, which is formed from tubes and fins or fins, the tubes opening into a tube sheet 3 'of an upper water tank 3 and into a tube sheet 4' of a lower water tank 4 and tightly fastened therein are. Side parts 1 are arranged on both sides of the cooler network 2 and between the water boxes 3 and 4.

Diese Seitenteile 1 sind aus einem etwa U-förmigen Metallprofil mit einer ebenen Basis 5 und Seitenwänden 6 geringerer Höhe hergestellt. Wie aus den Fig. 1 und 2 hervorgeht, ist das Seitenteil 1 mit Mitteln zur Befe­stigung und Fixierung am Kühler versehen. Bei diesen Mitteln handelt es sich im oberen Teil um einen in Bü­geln 8 geführten Riegel 7 und um gebogene Endstücke in Form von Laschen 9. Diese Laschen 9 liegen außen am Rohrboden 3′ des Wasserkastens 3 an, und der Riegel 7 wird in eine Nut bzw. Ausnehmung im Rohrboden 3′ ge­schoben. Beim unteren Teil des Seitenteiles 1 bestehen die Mittel zur Befestigung aus einem abgewinkelten und abgebogenen Endabschnitt 10, der in den Rohrboden 4′ bzw in eine entsprechende Ausnehmung eingefügt wird. Die Fig. 3 und 4 zeigen die Anordnung der Seitenteile 1 zu beiden Seiten des Kühlernetzes 2. An dem oberen und dem unteren Wasserkasten 3 und 4 sind jeweils Stützzap­fen 11 angeordnet, am oberen Wasserkasten 3 ist eine Öffnung 12 für den Einlaß der Kühlflüssigkeit und am unteren Wasserkasten 4 ist eine Öffnung 13 für den Aus­laß der Kühlflüssigkeit in den Kühlmittelkreislauf des Motors vorgesehen.These side parts 1 are made of an approximately U-shaped metal profile with a flat base 5 and side walls 6 of lower height. As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the side part 1 is provided with means for fastening and fixing to the radiator. With these Means is in the upper part of a led in bracket 8 bar 7 and curved end pieces in the form of tabs 9. These tabs 9 are on the outside of the tube sheet 3 'of the water tank 3, and the bolt 7 is in a groove or recess pushed in the tube sheet 3 '. In the lower part of the side part 1, the means for fastening consist of an angled and bent end portion 10, which is inserted into the tube sheet 4 'or into a corresponding recess. 3 and 4 show the arrangement of the side parts 1 on both sides of the radiator network 2. On the upper and the lower water box 3 and 4, support pins 11 are arranged, on the upper water box 3 is an opening 12 for the inlet of the cooling liquid and on lower water box 4, an opening 13 is provided for the outlet of the coolant into the coolant circuit of the engine.

Die Basis 5 des Seitenteils 1 weist einerseits Ausstan­zungen 14 auf, aus denen Klauen bzw. Lappen 15 heraus­gebogen sind, die in das Netz 2 des Kühlers eingreifen und somit die Befestigung des Seitenteils 1 am Netz 2 verbessern. Andererseits sind verschiedene Öffnungen 16 zur Anbringung von verschiedenen Stütz- oder Befesti­gungselementen für die verschiedenen Fahrzeugteile vor­gesehen, wobei diese Öffnungen 16 so verteilt sind, daß den Anforderungen der verschiedenen Fahrzeugtypen ent­sprochen werden kann.The base 5 of the side part 1 has punched-out portions 14, from which claws or tabs 15 are bent, which engage in the mesh 2 of the cooler and thus improve the attachment of the side part 1 to the mesh 2. On the other hand, different openings 16 are provided for the attachment of different support or fastening elements for the different vehicle parts, these openings 16 being distributed in such a way that the requirements of the different vehicle types can be met.

Die Seitenteile 1 werden wie folgt am Fahrzeugkühler angebracht: Ein Seitenteil 1 wird an die entsprechende Seitenfläche des Kühlers angelegt, und sein unteres Ende wird so am Rohrboden 4′ des unteren Wasserkastens 4 angesetzt, daß der abgebogene und abgewinkelte Endab­ schnitt 10 zur Fixierung in die Ausnehmung des Rohrbo­dens 4′(entsprechend Fig. 6) eingekippt ist. Anschlie­ßend wird das Seitenteil so an den Kühler angebaut, daß die Laschen 9 am Rohrboden 3′ des oberen Wasserkastens 3 zur Anlage kommen, wonach der Riegel 7 nach oben in die Ausnehmung des Rohrbodens 3′ geschoben wird, damit er das Seitenteil gegenüber dem Rohrboden 3′ bzw. dem oberen Wasserkasten 3 verriegelt bzw. fixiert. Der Rie­gel 7 kann dann durch Nieten 17 oder auch durch andere Maßnahmen, z.B. Verstemmen, gegenüber dem Seitenteil 1 fixiert werden. Für diesen Zweck der Vernietung sind im Riegel 7 und in der Basis 5 des Seitenteils 1 Öffnungen 18 vorgesehen. In der letzten Phase des Zusammenbaus werden die Klauen 15 in die Seitenflächen des Kühler­netzes 2, d.h. in die Rippen hineingedrückt, so daß eine Verkrallung und gleichzeitige Fixierung zwischen Seitenteil 1 und Kühlernetz 2 hergestellt wird.The side parts 1 are attached to the vehicle radiator as follows: A side part 1 is placed on the corresponding side surface of the radiator, and its lower end is attached to the tube sheet 4 'of the lower water tank 4, that the bent and angled Endab cut 10 for fixing in the recess of the tube sheet 4 '(corresponding to Fig. 6) is tilted. Then the side part is attached to the cooler so that the tabs 9 on the tube sheet 3 'of the upper water tank 3 come to rest, after which the bolt 7 is pushed up into the recess in the tube sheet 3' so that it is the side part opposite the tube sheet 3 'Or the upper water box 3 locked or fixed. The bolt 7 can then be fixed against the side part 1 by rivets 17 or also by other measures, for example caulking. For this purpose of riveting 1 openings 18 are provided in the bolt 7 and in the base 5 of the side part. In the last phase of assembly, the claws 15 are pressed into the side surfaces of the radiator net 2, ie into the ribs, so that a claw and simultaneous fixation between the side part 1 and the radiator net 2 is produced.

Wenn die beiden Seitenteile 1 dermaßen am Kühler ange­bracht worden sind, kann der Kühler fest in das ent­sprechende Fahrzeug eingebaut werden. Dabei werden bei jedem Fahrzeugmodell die entsprechenden (passenden) Öffnungen 16 verwendet, um die jeweils geeigneten Stützelemente zur Halterung von Leitungen und Zubehör­teilen anzubringen.If the two side parts 1 have been attached to the radiator in this way, the radiator can be permanently installed in the corresponding vehicle. In this case, the corresponding (suitable) openings 16 are used in each vehicle model in order to attach the respectively suitable support elements for holding lines and accessories.
