Definitions

  • the invention relates to a collecting container with a plug and a heat exchanger and a refrigerant circuit.
  • Heat exchange media such as in refrigerant circuits of air conditioning systems are often passed through reservoirs, which on the one hand ensures pressure equalization and on the other hand, under certain circumstances, a complete condensation of a refrigerant is ensured.
  • a heat exchange medium in such a collecting container can be freed from particles by means of a filtering device and, if appropriate, by means of a drying device become.
  • Such a collection container is in the DE 100 39 260 A1 the applicant described.
  • the local collecting container receives in its interior a dryer, which is interchangeable for maintenance purposes via a closable with a detachable lid opening.
  • the lid is designed as a cylindrical plug and axially displaceably guided and sealed in a corresponding cylindrical bore of the collecting container.
  • this plug is fixed via a retaining ring, wherein the retaining ring is secured by a voltage applied to the stopper locking block against loosening.
  • the plug is thereby pressed by an applied overpressure, as it exists during operation within the collecting container, axially outwardly against the retaining ring.
  • To open the plug must be pressed from the outside inwards with unpressurized collection container so that the retaining ring is released and can be removed, after which the plug can be removed from the sump.
  • a seal of the bore is done via two sealing rings which are arranged in each case an annular groove of the plug and are pressed by an insertion of the plug into the collecting container in the annular grooves.
  • the outer dimensions of the plug must be matched exactly to the inner dimensions of the bore.
  • the plug must be made of the same material as the sump to avoid a decreasing sealing effect during operation of the sump, since different materials may be subjected to different thermal expansions due to the naturally occurring temperature fluctuations of the heat exchanger medium.
  • the plug is made of aluminum. Thanks to the strength of this material, it is possible to form the plug inside hollow for the purpose of weight and material cost spam without having to accept a reduced shape stability of the plug.
  • the EP 0 886 114 A1 discloses a receptacle for a dryer in which a lid is received in a housing having an inlet and outlet opening.
  • the JP 2002 061 778 A discloses a fluid conduit for a refrigerant that is multi-layered.

  • the plug is deformable by an internal pressure during operation of the collecting container, that the plug presses the sealing means against an edge of the housing opening.
  • an elastically deformable stopper is understood to be a stopper which changes its shape by applying a pressure within the collecting container such that the sealing means experiences a force.
  • a common operating pressure for heat exchange media such as refrigerant from air conditioning systems is already sufficient for this. In this sense, for example, a solid plug made of aluminum has no elastic deformability.
  • the elastic deformability of the plug can be achieved by a suitable geometry of the plug.
  • the plug has a recess with such a thin wall that the wall can be pressed against an edge of the housing opening by means of a pressurized heat exchange medium located within the recess.
  • the stopper is formed substantially as a hollow cylinder with an open end side toward the interior of the housing, wherein the opening has a circular Cross section has.
  • the heat exchange medium then presses the cylinder wall radially in the direction of an edge of the opening, whereby the sealing means, preferably a sealing ring, uniformly compressed and an effective sealing effect is achieved.
  • the collection container constructed when the housing is designed as a tube with an open end.
  • the opening is then formed by the open tube end into which the plug is receivable, is made of plastic, Er.
  • the hollow cylindrical plug is made of plastic, it is particularly well suited as a detachable closure of the collecting container, since a plastic for a deformability according to the invention and at the same time sufficient strength for closing the collecting container is readily selectable.
  • the plug has a shielding element, which is designed as a metal vapor deposition or paint coating, which is applied at least on the inside of the housing facing side of the plug.
  • the plug is integrally formed with the sealant, whereby a mounting cost of the collecting container is reduced due to a resulting reduction in the number of items.
  • the sealing means may be injection molded onto the plug, whereby a particularly simple one-piece design of the plug can be realized with the sealant.
  • the plug is secured against falling out of the sump by being held in the opening by a circlip.
  • a loosening of the retaining ring is prevented from an optionally existing annular groove in the edge of the housing opening by the locking ring is secured by a provided on the stopper, applied to an inner edge of the locking ring locking portion.
  • the collecting container according to the invention is used in a heat exchanger with tubes, fins and two headers such that a heat exchange medium, the through flows through the heat exchanger, before, then or during the flow through the reservoir.
