Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heat exchanger tube and a method for manufacturing the same, and specifically to a heat exchanger tube suitable in use for heat exchangers for vehicles and a method for manufacturing it, and further, to a heat exchanger having the heat exchanger tube.
  • a heat exchanger tube in more detail, a heat exchanger tube for flowing heat exchange medium in a heat exchanger, has been manufactured, for example, by bending a single flat plate material in the widthwise direction by roll bending, and joining tip portions of the end portions of the bent material to each other.
  • a heat exchanger tube 301 is formed by abutting and joining the tip portions to each other at a junction 302. The tip portions are joined, for example, by electric-resistance welding.
  • the internal dimensions of formed tube 301 may be difficult to be accurately determined to a target dimension, and the dimension may be dispersed. Still further, if the target height of the fluid path is changed, it may be difficult to accurately follow the change.
  • a method for manufacturing a tube shown in Fig. 28 there are the following problems.
  • a method for heating and brazing the core portion at a condition of temporary assembly in a furnace is employed.
  • flux may not be applied sufficiently to the brazing portion, defect of brazing may occur, and a defective for sealing the heat exchange medium may be generated.
  • any projecting or abutting portion is not provided at a central portion in the widthwise direction of tube 301, as shown in Fig. 27, when the core portion is brazed, binding force may be applied to the core portion originating from the difference between the thermal expansion of the core portion and that of a jig for brazing (a jig for temporarily fixing the assembly of the core portion), and therefore, the tube may be deformed, or a defective of brazing (a defective for sealing) may be generated.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a heat exchanger tube and a method for manufacturing it, having such features that the junction strength of a joined portion of the heat exchanger tube is high enough to ensure sufficiently high pressure resistance, that the internal dimensions of the tube may be changed easily and accurately, that flux may be sufficiently applied to portions required for brazing, and that a reinforced structure may be easily employed at the central portion in the widthwise direction of the tube.
  • a heat exchanger tube comprises two flat plate portions provided to face each other and defining therebetween a passage for heat exchange medium; and a folded portion provided on at least one end portion in the widthwise direction of at least one of the flat plate portions.
  • the folded portion is formed by folding the end portion so as to have a thickness which is an integral multiple of a thickness of a plate forming the end portion, and the folded portion and a corresponding end portion in the widthwise direction of the other flat plate portion are joined to each other.
  • a bent portion which integrally connects two flat plate portions, may be formed at one end portion in the widthwise direction of the heat exchanger tube, the folded portion may be formed on each flat plate portion at the other end portion in the widthwise direction of the heat exchanger tube, and the respective folded portions may be joined to each other.
  • the folded portion may be formed on each end portion in the widthwise direction of each flat plate portion, and each set of corresponding folded portions on the respective end portions may be joined to each other.
  • an inner fin may be provided between the flat plate portions.
  • a plurality of protruded portions protruding toward the inside of the tube may be provided on at least one of the flat plate portions, and protruded portions facing to each other, or, a protruded portion and an inner surface of a flat plate portion facing the protruded portion, may be abutted to each other.
  • the flat plate portions may be formed to expand toward outside of the tube so that a central portion in the widthwise direction of each flat portion is formed as a peak, thereby increasing the pressure resistance of the tube.
  • grooves may be defined on an inner surface of each flat plate portion so that the grooves on one flat plate portion extend to intersect the grooves on the other flat plate portion.
  • a heat exchanger according to the present invention has such a heat exchanger tube.
  • the type of the heat exchanger is not particularly restricted.
  • the present invention is applied to a heat exchanger wherein tubes and fins are alternately disposed.
  • a method for manufacturing a heat exchanger tube comprises the steps of (a) folding at least one end portion in the widthwise direction of a flat plate with a predetermined width to form a folded portion having a thickness which is an integral multiple of a thickness of the flat plate forming the end portion, (b) bending the flat plate at a central portion in the widthwise direction of the flat plate so that the folded portion is positioned inside, to form two flat plate portions defining therebetween a passage for heat exchange medium, and (c) joining the folded portion formed on at least one end portion of at least one of the flat plate portions to a corresponding end portion of the other flat plate portion.
  • Another method for manufacturing a heat exchanger tube comprises the steps of (a) folding both end portions in the widthwise direction of at least one flat plate of two flat plates having respective predetermined widths to form a folded portion at each end portion, the folded portion having a thickness which is an integral multiple of a thickness of the flat plate forming the end portion, and (b) joining the folded portions formed on both end portions of the flat plate and corresponding end portions of the other flat plate to each other.
  • the folded portion may be formed by once folding the end portion in the widthwise direction of the flat plate, and the folded portion may be formed by plurally folding.
  • the folded portion formed by plurally folding the folded portion is formed, so that a first folded piece portion comes into contact with an inner surface of a flat plate at a condition of surface contact, and a following folded piece portion comes into contact with a surface of a prior folded piece portion at a condition of surface contact.
  • Such folded portions may be formed, for example, by pressing.
  • a projecting portion may be formed at a central portion in the widthwise direction of one of flat plate portions forming the tube by bending the flat plate portion itself, so that the projecting portion is formed to extend toward the other flat plate portion so as to substantially come into contact with the other flat plate portion.
  • the folded portion may be brazed to the corresponding end portion of a flat plate portion facing the folded portion.
  • the method for manufacturing a heat exchanger may have a step of providing an inner fin between two flat plate portions forming the tube. Further, a plurality of protruded portions protruding toward the inside of the tube may be formed on the flat plate when the tube is formed. Furthermore, grooves may be defined on surfaces of flat plate portions forming the tube so that the grooves on one flat plate portion extend to intersect the grooves on the other flat plate portion when the tube is formed.
  • the folded portion formed on the end portion in the widthwise direction of at least one flat plate portion can be formed, for example, by pressing. Therefore, the cost for the processing is cheap, and because a material having been cut at a predetermined width is pressed, defect of the processing does not occur and correction after the processing is not necessary. As a result, the cost for the manufacture may be greatly reduced.
  • tip portions are not joined to each other as in the conventional tubes but the folded portion can be joined to the end portion in the widthwise direction of the other flat plate portion at a condition of surface contact (this end portion may be formed as a folded portion), the junction area becomes sufficiently wide, a high junction strength may be ensured, and a high pressure resistance may be realized.
  • the folded portion is formed by folding the plate once or a plurality of times so that the folded portion has a thickness of an integral multiple of the thickness of the plate forming the end portion in the widthwise direction of the plate, and so that the folded piece portion is stacked at a condition of surface contact, a high strength of the folded portion itself may be ensured, as well as a high junction strength may be ensured by joined surfaces at a condition of surface contact, and a high pressure resistance may be achieved as the whole of the tube.
  • the thickness of the folded portion corresponds to a height of a fluid path formed in the tube.
  • the thickness of the folded portion can be determined by the times of folding in the folded portion. Namely, the thickness of the folded portion, in particular, the thickness of the folded portion contributing decision of the internal dimensions of the tube, can be determined by the times of folding, that is, by the number of stacked folded piece portions, thereby greatly increasing the freedom of design.
  • the thickness may be accurately determined as a dimension corresponding to a value of (the thickness of the folded piece portion x the number of the folded piece portions) by the surface contact between the folded piece portions or between the first folded piece portion and the inner surface of the flat plate portion having the first folded piece portion. Therefore, the internal dimensions of the tube to be formed may be accurately determined at target dimensions, thereby obtaining a tube with high accuracy.
  • the tube may be reinforced at the central portion in the widthwise direction. Therefore, when the core portion is brazed, the deformation of the tube, defect of brazing originating from the difference between the thermal expansion of the core portion and that of a jig for brazing, and generation of a defective for sealing may be prevented.
  • Such a heat exchanger tube 4 of heat exchanger 1 is constituted, for example, as shown in Figs. 2 to 5 or Figs. 10 to 13 (heat exchanger tubes 21, 31, 41, 51, 121a, 121b, 121c, 131, 141a, 141b, 141c and 151).
  • Heat exchanger tube 21 of the embodiment depicted in Fig. 2 comprises two flat plate portions 23a and 23b provided to face each other with a gap therebetween and defining therebetween a passage 22 for heat exchange medium; a bent portion 24 formed at one end portion in the widthwise direction of heat exchanger tube 21, which integrally connects two flat plate portions 23a and 23b; and folded portions 25a and 25b formed on the other end portions in the widthwise direction of respective flat plate portions 23a and 23b. Folded portions 25a and 25b are formed by bending by folding the respective end portions of flat plate portions 23a and 23b.
  • Respective folded portions 25a and 25b are formed so that the inner surfaces of respective folded portions 25a and 25b come into contact with the surfaces of respective flat plate portions 23a and 23b positioned inside of the tube at a condition of surface contact, and so that the outer surfaces of folded portions 25a and 25b facing each other extend in parallel to each other.

  • an internal dimension other than those shown in figures may be determined, and according to target dimensions, the number of folded piece portions interposed between both flat plate portions 143a and 143b and the times of folding of the respective folded portions may be decided.
  • Heat exchanger tube 151 of the embodiment depicted in Fig. 13, similarly to that shown in Fig. 12A, comprises two flat plate portions 153a and 153b defining a passage 152 for heat exchange medium; and folded portions 154a and 154b formed by plurally bending and folding on both end portions in the widthwise direction of flat plate portion 153a. Folded portions 154a and 154b are joined by brazing to corresponding end portions 155a and 155b in the widthwise direction of the other flat plate portion 153b (joining portions 156a and 156b).
  • the heat exchanger tubes shown in Figs. 10 to 13 are manufactured as products of heat exchangers, generally, by assembling those together with other parts such as fins and header pipes and joining them by brazing in a furnace.
  • an inner fin may be inserted into the tube for the purpose of increase of pressure resistance and heat transfer performance.
  • usually a clad material with a brazing material is used for any of fins and tube shells for joining by brazing. If a clad material with a brazing material on both surfaces is used, a tube shell may be brazed at a liquid sealing condition, and a bare material with no clad brazing material can be used for fins. Further, when only a tube shell is brazed, any of a method for using a material clad with a brazing material on both surfaces or on only one surface, or a method for using combination of these materials, may be appropriately selected.
  • Heat exchanger tubes 121a, 131, 141a and 151 shown in Figs. 10 to 13 are manufactured by the methods shown in Figs. 14 to 17, respectively.
  • Heat exchanger tubes 121b, 121c, 141b and 141c may be manufactured by similar methods.
  • Fig. 14 shows a method for manufacturing heat exchanger tube 121a depicted in Fig. 10A.
  • a flat plate 163 having a predetermined width is formed by cutting a wide flat plate 161 prepared as a material for forming a tube, using an appropriate cutter 162. Then, one end portion in the widthwise direction of flat plate 163 with the predetermined width is bent to fold the end portion twice to form folded portion 125a on the end portion.
  • flat plate 163 is bent at a central portion in the widthwise direction in the direction of the upper surface side in Fig. 14 to form bent portion 124, and two flat plate portions 123a and 123b facing each other with a gap therebetween and defining therebetween passage 122 for heat exchange medium are formed.
  • folded portion 125a on the end portion of flat plate portion 123a and end portion 125b of flat plate portion 123b are joined to each other (joining portion 126), thereby completing heat exchanger tube 121a depicted in Fig. 10A.
  • Fig. 16 shows a method for manufacturing heat exchanger tube 141a depicted in Fig. 12A.
  • two flat plates 181a and 181b having different widths are formed by cutting a wide flat plate 161 prepared as a material, using cutter 162.
  • folded portions 144a and 144b are formed by bending on both end portions of one flat plate 181a.
  • Flat plates 181a and 181b are formed as flat plate portions 143a and 143b.
  • Fig. 17 shows a method for manufacturing heat exchanger tube 151 depicted in Fig. 13.
  • two flat plates 191a and 191b are formed by cutting a wide flat plate 161 prepared as a material, using cutter 162.
  • projecting portion 157 is formed by bending one flat plate 191b at a central portion in the widthwise direction thereof.
  • Folded portions 154a and 154b are formed on both end portions of the other flat plate 191a by plurally bending and folding the end portions.
  • Folded portions 154a and 154b are joined to corresponding end portions 155a and 155b in the widthwise direction of the other flat plate 191b by brazing (joining portions 156a and 156b), thereby completing heat exchanger tube 151 having therein passage 152 for heat exchange medium depicted in Fig. 13.
  • the folded portion formed on the end portion in the widthwise direction of the flat plate portion can be formed by pressing, the conventional roll forming is not necessary, and great reduction of the cost for processing, the cost for manufacturing the tubes, ultimately, the cost for manufacturing the heat exchanger, may be achieved. Because roll forming is not carried out, correction after processing is also unnecessary, thereby greatly reducing generation of defectives, facilitating the manufacture and further reducing the cost for the manufacture.
  • the folded portion is formed by plurally bending and folding the end portion in opposite directions, and the internal dimensions of the tube may be determined substantially freely and accurately by the times of folding, and therefore, the freedom of design may be greatly increased.
  • the internal dimension of the tube may be determined at a dimension corresponding to a value of (the thickness of the folded piece portion x the number of the folded piece portions) more accurately by bringing the first folded piece portion into contact with the inner surface of the flat plate portion at a condition of surface contact. Therefore, the internal dimensions of the tube may be determined at target dimensions at high accuracy, thereby easily achieving a tube with desired internal dimensions.
  • the projecting portion basically is a portion which does not require flux flown from another portion or flux applied from outside, defect of application of flux, as in the structure shown in Fig. 27, does not occur. Therefore, generation of a defective for brazing may be easily prevented.
  • the heat exchanger tubes depicted in Figs. 2 to 5 and Figs. 10 to 13 may have the following additional structures. Although the additional structures will be explained as to the heat exchanger tubes depicted in Fig. 2 and Fig. 10A, these structures may similarly be applied to the tubes depicted in Figs. 3 to 5, Figs. 10B and 10C, and Figs. 11 to 13.
  • an inner fin 204 formed as a wave type is provided in a passage 203 for heat exchange medium defined between flat plate portions 202a and 202b of tube 201, and the passage 203 is divided into a plurality of paths by inner fin 204.
  • the structure of inner fin 204 is not particularly limited, and a structure other than the wave type may be employed. Such an inner fin 204 may be inserted after forming tube 201.
  • a plurality of protruded portions 213 protruding toward the inside of the tube are provided on both flat plate portions 212a and 212b of tube 211, and protruded portions 213 are disposed to face each other and the top surfaces thereof are brought into contact with each other.
  • Respective protruded portions 213 may be formed easily by embossing a flat plate material before forming the tube, and the tube may be processed after forming the protruded portions 213.
  • a plurality of grooves 223a and 223b extending obliquely in the directions to intersect each other are defined on flat plate portions 222a and 222b, respectively.
  • these grooves 223a and 223b are defined on a flat plate material 224 before forming tube 221 so that the grooves extend to intersect each other when tube 221 is formed and thereafter, the material may be processed into tube 221.
