Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Kühlplatte für eine Kühleinrichtung sowie eine Kühleinrichtung mit zumindest einer derartigen Kühlplatte. Die Erfindung betrifft des Weiteren ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer derartigen Kühlplatte.The present invention relates to a cooling plate for a cooling device and a cooling device with at least one such cooling plate. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a cooling plate.
Kühleinrichtungen dienen der Kühlung eines Fluides, wie beispielsweise eines Gases bzw. einer Flüssigkeit, und kommen in unterschiedlichen Anwendungen, wie beispielsweise in einem Kraftfahrzeug, zum Einsatz. Zum Kühlen des Fluides kann hierbei ein anderes Fluid verwendet werden, welches dementsprechend innerhalb der Kühleinrichtung erwärmt wird. Beide Fluide, also das erste zu kühlende Fluid und das zweite kühlende Fluid, strömen hierbei fluidisch voneinander getrennt durch die Kühleinrichtung. Die Durchströmung eines der Fluide kann hierbei durch zumindest eine Kühlplatte der Kühleinrichtung, häufig jedoch mehreren Kühlplatten, realisiert sein. Cooling devices serve to cool a fluid, such as a gas or a liquid, and are used in different applications, such as in a motor vehicle. For cooling the fluid, another fluid can be used in this case, which is accordingly heated within the cooling device. Both fluids, ie the first fluid to be cooled and the second cooling fluid, in this case flow fluidically separated from one another by the cooling device. The flow through one of the fluids can in this case be realized by at least one cooling plate of the cooling device, but often a plurality of cooling plates.
Eine wirtschaftlich vorteilhafte Möglichkeit eine solche Kühlplatte herzustellen ist der Einsatz eines Extrusionsverfahrens, bei dem die Kühlplatte als ein Extrusionsprofil (Strangpressprofil) hergestellt wird. Eine solche durch das Extrusionsverfahren hergestellte Kühlplatte hat jedoch den Nachteil, dass die Größe der Kühlplatte durch eine entsprechende Größe der für das Extrusionsverfahren verwendeten Einrichtungen vorgegeben ist. Unterschiedliche Größen, insbesondere Längen, derartiger Kühlplatten lassen sich daher erschwert und/oder unter erheblichem Aufwand realisieren.An economically advantageous possibility to produce such a cooling plate is the use of an extrusion process, in which the cooling plate is produced as an extrusion profile (extruded profile). However, such a cooling plate produced by the extrusion method has the disadvantage that the size of the cooling plate is predetermined by a corresponding size of the devices used for the extrusion process. Different sizes, in particular lengths, of such cooling plates can therefore be made more difficult and / or implement at considerable expense.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit dem Problem, für eine Kühlplatte der eingangs genannten Art sowie für eine zugehörige Kühleinrichtung und ein zugehöriges Herstellungsverfahren, eine verbesserte oder zumindest alternative Ausführungsform anzugeben, die sich insbesondere durch eine flexible Variation der Größe der Kühlplatten und/oder eine erhöhte Stabilität auszeichnet. Zudem soll die erfindungsgemäße Lösung wirtschaftlich möglichst günstig realisierbar sein. The present invention addresses the problem of providing for a cooling plate of the type mentioned above and for an associated cooling device and an associated manufacturing method, an improved or at least alternative embodiment, in particular by a flexible variation of the size of the cooling plates and / or increased Stability distinguishes. In addition, the solution according to the invention should be economically feasible as possible.
Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Gegenstände der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche. This problem is solved according to the invention by the subject matters of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, eine Kühlplatte für eine Kühleinrichtung aus zumindest zwei parallel zueinander angeordneten Rohrelementen zusammenzusetzen und diese Rohrelement miteinander zu verbinden, so dass hierdurch eine erhöhte Variationsmöglichkeit der Größe bzw. Dimension der Kühlplatte unter wirtschaftlich günstigen Bedingungen realisierbar ist. Zudem ist die Verbindung zwischen den miteinander verbundenen Rohrelementen erfindungsgemäß dadurch verbessert, dass der Verbindung dienende Verbindungskonturen der Rohrelemente oberflächenvergrößernd ausgestaltet werden. Hierdurch wird zusätzlich eine hohe Stabilität bzw. Festigkeit der Kühlplatte gewährleistet. Dem Erfindungsgedanken entsprechend sind die Rohrelemente als Extrusionsprofile ausgebildet und weisen jeweils zugehörige Verbindungskonturen an zugehörigen Seiten, insbesondere Längsseiten, auf, wobei besagte Verbindungskonturen der Verbindung der benachbarten Rohrelemente dienen. Hierbei weisen zugehörige Verbindungskonturen zweier benachbarter Rohrelemente komplementäre Strukturen auf, die zudem oberflächenvergrößernd sind. Besagte zugehörige Verbindungskonturen mit den oberflächenvergrößernden Strukturen liegen ferner flächig aneinander an und sind über diese Strukturen miteinander verbunden, wobei zur Verbindung vorzugsweise ein Lötverfahren zum Einsatz kommt, so dass die Rohrelemente miteinander verlötet sind. Dabei kann das jeweilige Rohrelement einen Kanal für das zugehörige Fluid oder mehrere Rohre für das zugehörige Fluid aufweisen bzw. ausbilden.The present invention is based on the general idea to assemble a cooling plate for a cooling device from at least two mutually parallel pipe elements and to connect these pipe element together, so that thereby an increased possibility of variation of the size or dimension of the cooling plate under economically favorable conditions can be realized. In addition, the connection between the interconnected pipe elements according to the invention is improved by the fact that the connection serving contours of the pipe elements are designed surface enlarging. As a result, a high stability and strength of the cooling plate is additionally ensured. According to the idea of the invention, the pipe elements are designed as extrusion profiles and each have associated connecting contours on associated sides, in particular longitudinal sides, on, said connecting contours of the connection of the adjacent pipe elements are used. In this case, associated connection contours of two adjacent pipe elements complementary structures, which are also oberflächenvergrößernd. Said associated connection contours with the surface-enlarging structures also lie flat against one another and are connected to one another via these structures, a soldering method preferably being used for the connection, so that the tube elements are soldered to one another. In this case, the respective tubular element can have or form a channel for the associated fluid or a plurality of tubes for the associated fluid.
Eine solche oberfächenvergrößernde Struktur der Verbindungskonturen heißt hierbei insbesondere, dass die Verbindungskontur gegenüber der üblichen flachen, ebenen Form derart verändert wird, dass sich dadurch eine vergrößerte für die Verbindung der Rohrelemente zur Verfügung stehende Oberfläche ergibt.Such a superficial enlarging structure of the connecting contours here means, in particular, that the connecting contour is changed in relation to the usual flat, planar shape such that this results in an enlarged surface available for the connection of the tubular elements.
Das jeweilige als Extrusionsprofil ausgebildete Rohrelement ist vorzugsweise aus Aluminium hergestellt, wobei auch Ausführungsformen vorstellbar sind, bei denen das jeweilige Rohrelement aus einem anderen Werkstoff wie beispielsweise aus Kunststoff oder einem anderen Metall oder einer Legierung hergestellt ist. Die oberflächenvergrößernde Struktur der Verbindungskonturen kann hierbei während dem Extrusionsverfahren bzw. dem Strangpressen oder nach dem Extrusionsverfahren am jeweiligen Rohrelement angebracht werden, wobei Ausführungsformen bevorzugt sind, bei denen das jeweilige Rohrelement während des Extrusionsverfahrens zur Herstellung des Rohrelementes mit der oberflächenvergrößernden Struktur versehen wird. Als nachträgliche Bearbeitungsmethoden des Rohrelementes zur Realisierung der oberflächenvergrößernden Struktur kommen beispielsweise spanabhebende Verfahren und/oder die Bearbeitung mit einem Laser zum Einsatz. The respective extrusion formed as a tubular element is preferably made of aluminum, whereby embodiments are conceivable in which the respective pipe element is made of a different material such as plastic or other metal or alloy. The surface-enlarging structure of the connection contours can in this case be applied to the respective tubular element during the extrusion process or extrusion or extrusion process, whereby embodiments are preferred in which the respective tubular element is provided with the surface-enlarging structure during the extrusion process for producing the tubular element. As subsequent processing methods of the tubular element for the realization of the surface-enlarging structure, for example, cutting processes and / or the machining with a laser are used.
Das jeweilige Rohrelement und insbesondere das aus Aluminium hergestellte Rohrelement kann zum vereinfachten Verlöten mit dem zugehörigen anderen Rohrelement mit einer Beschichtung versehen werden, wobei als derartige Beschichtung insbesondere Sil flux® und dergleichen zum Einsatz kommen. Dementsprechend können zur Verbindung der Rohrelemente entsprechende Verbindungsverfahren wie beispielsweise Nocolok® zum Einsatz kommen. The respective tube element and in particular the tube element made of aluminum can be provided for simplified soldering with the associated other tube element with a coating, wherein as such coating in particular Sil flux ® and the like are used. Accordingly, appropriate connection methods such as Nocolok ® can be used for connection of the tube elements.
Weitere besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsformen zeichnen sich dadurch aus, dass zumindest zwei solche Rohrelemente als Gleichteile ausgestaltet sind. Das heißt insbesondere, dass das jeweilige Rohrelement zwei solche und voneinander beabstandete Verbindungskonturen aufweisen kann, welche komplementär zueinander ausgebildet sind, so dass das Rohrelement mit einem anderen solchen und identisch ausgestalteten Rohrelement erfindungsgemäß verbunden werden kann. Hierbei können die Verbindungsstrukturen eines solchen Rohrelementes an gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Rohrelementes, insbesondere an gegenüberliegenden Längsseiten des Rohrelementes, realisiert bzw. angeordnet sein. Es sind jedoch auch Ausführungsformen vorstellbar, bei denen die Verbindungskonturen eines solchen Rohrelementes an benachbarten Seiten bzw. der gleichen Seite des Rohrelementes realisiert sind. Ferner sind Ausgestaltungen denkbar, bei denen die Verbindungskontur eines solchen Rohrelementes derart ausgestaltet ist, dass sie durch eine Drehung des Rohrelementes eine solche zu sich komplementäre Verbindungskontur ausbildet. Further particularly preferred embodiments are characterized in that at least two such pipe elements are designed as identical parts. This means, in particular, that the respective tubular element can have two such and spaced-apart connecting contours, which are formed complementary to one another, so that the tubular element can be connected according to the invention with another such and identically designed tubular element. In this case, the connecting structures of such a tubular element can be realized or arranged on opposite sides of the tubular element, in particular on opposite longitudinal sides of the tubular element. However, embodiments are also conceivable in which the connecting contours of such a tubular element are realized on adjacent sides or the same side of the tubular element. Furthermore, embodiments are conceivable in which the connecting contour of such a tubular element is designed such that it forms such a complementary connecting contour by rotation of the tubular element.
Eine derartige Verbindungskontur mit einer oberflächenvergrößernden Struktur kann beispielsweise als Verbindungsfläche mit einer sägezahnartigen Struktur ausgebildet sein. Dabei weisen die zugehörigen Verbindungskonturen aufgrund der komplementären Ausbildung jeweils Verbindungsflächen mit zugehörigen sägezahnartigen Strukturen auf. Such a connection contour with a surface-enlarging structure can be designed, for example, as a connection surface with a saw-tooth-like structure. In this case, due to the complementary design, the associated connection contours each have connection surfaces with associated sawtooth-like structures.
Eine weitere Variante zur Ausgestaltung einer solchen oberflächenvergrößernden Struktur sind zugehörige Verbindungskonturen mit einer Krümmung. Hierzu ist die Verbindungskontur insbesondere als Verbindungsfläche mit einer konkaven oder konvexen Oberfläche ausgebildet, wobei die zugehörige Verbindungskontur dementsprechend als Verbindungsfläche mit einer konvexen oder konkaven Struktur ausgebildet ist. Bei besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsformen weist das jeweilige Rohrelement eine konvexe und eine konkave Verbindungsfläche auf, wodurch ein formschlüssiges paralleles Aneinanderreihen der Rohrelemente möglich ist. Hierdurch ist es insbesondere möglich, die Rohrelemente als Gleichteile auszugestalten, um eine besonders günstige Herstellung der Kühlplatte zu erreichen.Another variant for the design of such a surface enlarging structure are associated connecting contours with a curvature. For this purpose, the connection contour is in particular formed as a connection surface with a concave or convex surface, wherein the associated connection contour is accordingly formed as a connection surface with a convex or concave structure. In particularly preferred embodiments, the respective tubular element has a convex and a concave connection surface, whereby a form-fitting parallel juxtaposition of the tubular elements is possible. This makes it possible in particular to design the pipe elements as equal parts in order to achieve a particularly favorable production of the cooling plate.
Das jeweilige Rohrelement kann ferner eine beliebige Form und/oder Größe aufweisen. So sind insbesondere Ausgestaltungen vorstellbar, bei denen das jeweilige Rohrelement eine eckige oder runde Grundstruktur aufweist. Auch können die Rohrelemente gleich oder unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein. Bezüglich der Größe der Rohrelemente gilt hierbei, dass kleinere Rohrplatten eine höhere Größenvariation der Kühlplatte erlauben. Zudem ist es vorstellbar bei der Kühlplatte randseitig andere Kühlplatten, insbesondere solche Kühlplatten mit einer anderen Größe und/oder Form zu verwenden, als innenseitig der Kühlplatte. The respective pipe element can also have any shape and / or size. Thus, in particular embodiments are conceivable in which the respective tubular element has a polygonal or round basic structure. Also, the tube elements may be the same or different. With regard to the size of the tubular elements, it is true that smaller tube plates allow a larger size variation of the cooling plate. In addition, it is conceivable to use other cooling plates on the edge side, in particular cooling plates of a different size and / or shape, than on the inside of the cooling plate.
Bei weiteren Varianten der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung weist die Verbindungskontur einen Haken und einen Hinterschnitt auf, wobei der Haken und der Hinterschnitt dieser Verbindungskontur mit dem Haken und dem Hinterschnitt einer zugehörigen Verbindungskontur eines benachbarten Rohrelements verhakt sind, so dass hierdurch insbesondere die zugehörigen Verbindungskonturen flächig aneinander anliegen. In further variants of the solution according to the invention, the connection contour has a hook and an undercut, wherein the hook and the undercut of this connection contour are hooked to the hook and the undercut of an associated connection contour of an adjacent tubular element, so that thereby in particular the associated connection contours lie flat against each other.
Gemäß weiteren Ausgestaltungen ist die Verbindungskontur als Verbindungsfläche mit einer gestuften oder abgeschrägten Struktur ausgebildet. According to further embodiments, the connection contour is formed as a connection surface with a stepped or bevelled structure.
Prinzipiell kann jede Verbindungskontur eines Rohrelements einen Kanal des Rohrelementes seitenwandartig abschließen. Es sind jedoch auch Ausführungsformen vorstellbar, bei denen zugehörige Verbindungskonturen offen ausgebildet sind und durch Ineinanderstecken einen abgeschlossenen Kanal bilden. Das heißt insbesondere, dass eine der Verbindungskonturen in die andere zugehörige Verbindungskontur eingesteckt bzw. einsteckbar ist, wobei die zugehörigen Verbindungskonturen gemeinsam zumindest teilweise einen solchen abgeschlossenen Kanal ausbilden. In principle, each connection contour of a tubular element can close off a channel of the tubular element in the manner of a side wall. However, embodiments are also conceivable in which associated connecting contours are formed open and form a closed channel by nesting. This means, in particular, that one of the connecting contours is inserted or plugged into the other associated connecting contour, wherein the associated connecting contours together at least partially form such a closed channel.
Es versteht sich, dass die jeweilige Verbindungskontur auch durch eine Kombination der vorstehend beispielhaft aufgezählten Varianten realisiert sein kann. So sind beispielsweise Verbindungskonturen als Verbindungsflächen vorstellbar, die sowohl eine gestufte als auch eine sägezahnartige Struktur ausbilden. It is understood that the respective connection contour can also be realized by a combination of the variants enumerated above by way of example. Thus, for example, connecting contours are conceivable as connecting surfaces which form both a stepped and a sawtooth-like structure.
Es versteht sich weiter, dass das Verfahren zur Herstellung einer solchen Kühlplatte, die zwei erfindungsgemäß miteinander verbundene Rohrelemente aufweist, auch als solches zum Umfang dieser Erfindung gehört. It is further understood that the method of manufacturing such a cooling plate having two interconnected tubular elements according to the invention also belongs as such to the scope of this invention.
Zudem seid darauf hingewiesen, dass auch eine solche Kühleinrichtung mit einer solchen Kühlplatte, die zumindest zwei erfindungsgemäß miteinander verbundene Rohrelemente aufweist, ebenfalls zum Umfang dieser Erfindung gehört. Die Kühleinrichtung kann eine solche Kühlplatte oder mehrere solche Kühlplatten aufweisen, die insbesondere abwechselnd mit anderen Bestandteilen der Kühleinrichtung, wie beispielsweise Wellrippen und dergleichen, aufeinander gestapelt sind. Hierbei können die Kühlplatten beispielsweise der Durchströmung eines Fluides wie beispielsweise eines Kühlmittels dienen, während die Wellrippen der Durchströmung eines anderen Fluides wie beispielsweise eines Gases dienen können. Ein solches Gas ist insbesondere die einer Brennkraftmaschine zuzuführende Luft, so dass die Kühleinrichtung insbesondere in einem Kraftfahrzeug zum Einsatz kommen kann. Dabei sind die Kühlplatten und die Wellrippen zweckmäßig fluidisch voneinander getrennt. In addition, it should be noted that such a cooling device with such a cooling plate, which has at least two inventively interconnected pipe elements, also belongs to the scope of this invention. The cooling device may comprise such a cooling plate or a plurality of such cooling plates, which are in particular stacked alternately with other components of the cooling device, such as corrugated fins and the like. Here, the cooling plates, for example, the flow of a Fluids such as a coolant serve, while the corrugated fins may serve to flow through another fluid such as a gas. Such a gas is in particular the air to be supplied to an internal combustion engine, so that the cooling device can be used in particular in a motor vehicle. The cooling plates and the corrugated fins are expediently fluidly separated from one another.
Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist es insbesondere möglich, auf ein sonst übliches Bestandteil der Kühleinrichtung, das beispielsweise der Verbindung der Kühlplatte mit den Wellrippen bzw. deren fluidischer Trennung dient, also insbesondere auf ein Scheibenblech und dergleichen, zu verzichten. The solution according to the invention makes it possible, in particular, to dispense with an otherwise conventional component of the cooling device, which for example serves to connect the cooling plate to the corrugated ribs or their fluidic separation, ie in particular to a disc plate and the like.
Weitere wichtige Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, aus den Zeichnungen und aus der zugehörigen Figurenbeschreibung anhand der Zeichnungen.Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.
Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It is understood that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the particular combination given, but also in other combinations or in isolation, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
