Definitions
- the invention relates to a multi-chamber flat tube produced from a flat band and closed by a longitudinal seam.
- a multi-chamber flat tube of this type was known from EP-A 0 457 470.
- the known flat tube is produced from a sheet metal strip or flat strip, beads first being embossed into the flat strip, namely over its entire width, ie in both flat strip halves.
- the beads are then formed into folded webs so that the two legs [of the webs lie closely against one another.
- the tube is then folded approximately in the middle, so that the two halves of the band come to lie against each other, the webs being offset from one another.
- the abutting longitudinal edges of the two halves of the band are then welded to one another by means of a longitudinal seam, so that a closed cross section is produced.
- the tube, the strip material of which is solder-plated is soldered, so that the backs of the webs form a solder connection with the opposite tube wall.
- so-called corrugated fins are arranged on the outside of the flat tubes and are soldered to the flat tubes.
- the webs are not offset from one another, but are arranged opposite one another, but they only extend over half the tube thickness and meet in the middle.
- the disadvantage of this known multi-chamber tube is that manufacturing-related tolerances in the web height can only be compensated for with difficulty, with the result that either there is no continuous solder connection between the web back and the opposite inner tube wall side or the outer dimension of the flat tube exceeds the desired dimension.
- a longitudinal, resilient and / or deformable system is created in the tube wall on the opposite side of the web back, on which the web back is supported when the tube is calibrated.
- the height of the expression on the inside of the tube is chosen so that it corresponds to the tolerance in the web height.
- the embossing on the outside, ie the long side of the flat tube is so slight that the subsequent soldering process with the rib is not impaired, ie there can be a continuous solder connection between the outside of the flat tubes and the corrugated ridges of the corrugated fins.
- the flat tube can have one or more webs which are folded from one or both long sides.
- the longitudinal seam can be welded or soldered.
- the width of the plateau-like shape is approximately twice to three times the tube wall thickness, ie. H. the ribbon; the height of the expression towards the inside of the tube is less than half the tube wall thickness. It is thereby achieved that the web back can be impressed into the plateau-like shape when the tube is calibrated, without there being any bulging on the outside of the long side of the flat tube.
- the webs are arranged only on one longitudinal side of the flat tube, while only the corresponding features are provided on the other side. This enables simpler production, particularly with regard to the position of the longitudinal weld seam.
- a method for producing a generic multi-chamber flat tube is proposed which, owing to the initially plateau-like configuration with respect to the web back, enables tolerances in the web back height and the tube wall thickness by deflection of the web back into the
- FIG. 1 shows a welded multi-chamber tube with a web
- FIG. 2 shows a section of the multi-chamber tube according to FIG. 1 before calibration
- FIG. 3 shows the detail according to FIG. 2 after calibration.
- the flat tube 1 shows a cross section through a multi-chamber flat tube 1, which is produced from a flat strip of sheet metal strip 2 and is welded to a narrow side 3 by means of a longitudinal seam 4.
- the flat tube 1 has an elongated cross section with two longitudinal sides 5 and 6 and a further rounded narrow side 7.
- the depth t of the flat tube is approximately 24 mm, and the thickness d is approximately 1.8 mm, so that a ratio of depth to thickness 7 13 results.
- a web 8 is arranged, which is produced by folding the flat strip 2. It divides the flat tube 1 into two chambers 9 and 10.
- FIG. 2 shows the detail X from FIG. 1, that is to say an enlarged section with the web 8.
- the web 8 is produced from the flat strip material, which has a thickness of s ⁇ 0.26 mm, by a folding process.
- the web 8 has two legs 11, 12 which are connected to one another via a web back 13. Both legs 11, 12 lie close together and the two outer bending radii 14 are chosen to be as small as possible so that the outer surface of the long side 5 remains as smooth as possible.
- a plateau-like elevation 15 is arranged opposite the web back 13 and is pronounced from the lower longitudinal side 6 of the flat tube 1 to the inside 6 'of the tube.
- This elevation or shape 15 has a height h toward the inside 9, 10 of the tube 1, which is approximately 0.05 mm, ie approximately 20% of the wall thickness s of the flat strip.
- the width b of the shape 15 is approximately 1 mm, ie it corresponds approximately to four times the wall thickness s.
- the illustration in FIG. 2 shows the multi-chamber tube 1 with a thickness d 0 in a state after the web 8 has been folded and the tube has been welded, but before the calibration process with which the exact thickness d of the flat tube 1 is produced. In so far there is a gap 16 between the web back 13 and the plateau-like elevation 15, ie the web back 13 does not rest on the shape 15.
- Fig. 3 shows the section of the tube 1, d. H. the detail X after the so-called height calibration, d. H. after the tube has been brought to the desired dimension d 'in a roller set, not shown here.
- the two long sides 5 and 6 - as shown by the arrows - are compressed to the dimension d 'by the roller set mentioned.
- the ridge 13 was impressed into the plateau-like elevation 15 and formed a "dent" 17 there. This "dent" 17 therefore takes up the tolerance-related inaccuracies after calibration.
- the multi-chamber flat tubes are then soldered to corrugated fins - as is known per se - to form a heat exchanger.
- the strip material 2 for the multi-chamber tubes is solder-plated on both sides; insofar as soldering between the web back 13 and the shape 15 as well as between the outer sides 5, 6 and the corrugated ribs, not shown, is ensured.
- the web 8 thus acts not only as a partition, but also as a tie rod for absorbing internal pressure forces in the tube.
- the remaining depth e of the impression 15 or the “dent” 17 is so small that it does not impair the soldering between the corrugated fin and the outside of the tube 1, ie the solder gap which is somewhat enlarged in this area can easily filled with solder during the soldering process, so that an uninterrupted material connection between the corrugated fin and the outer wall of the tube is guaranteed.
- the invention is also applicable to multi-chamber tubes with any number of webs or chambers. It is advantageous if the webs are arranged on one long side and the plateau-like features on the opposite long side of the multi-chamber flat tube.
- the manufacturing process and the exact position of the longitudinal weld seam can be influenced favorably.
- the multi-chamber pipe described above is preferably used for air-cooled coolant coolers for internal combustion engines for motor vehicles.
