Definitions

  • the invention relates to a heat exchanger with predetermined breaking points comprehensive fasteners in particular a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a heat exchanger is off EP 0 870 638 B1 known.
  • the predetermined breaking points serve there in particular the purpose of giving the heat exchanger in a vehicle accident the possibility to be able to solve as such undamaged from the fasteners can.
  • only the fasteners are to be renewed for a repair, whereby the repair costs compared to the case of damage to the heat exchanger can be significantly reduced in not separable attachment.
  • a predetermined breaking point in case of repair can not be restored.
  • the region of the heat exchanger originally containing the predetermined breaking point must rather be replaced by a component to be firmly connected to the heat exchanger. The firmly connected component is specially screwed into the heat exchanger.
  • the invention is concerned with a generic heat exchanger with the problem of being able to replace a predetermined breaking point storage of a heat exchanger even after a first breakage of this storage in the simplest possible way by an equally effective predetermined breaking point storage. It should be after a previous breaking point Parts to be replaced as easily as possible be connected on the one hand with the heat exchanger and on the other hand allow easy reassembly of the heat exchanger in the carriers.
  • the invention is based on the general idea to place the .Sollbruchstellen on the fastening elements of the heat exchanger in areas that can be connected by quick-release connections to the heat exchanger. It is particularly advantageous to attach the predetermined breaking points in such a way that the quick-release closures already open inevitably upon the occurrence of a predetermined breaking. In the case of repair, only the areas of the fastening elements of the heat exchanger that can be separated off from the quick-release closures or that have already been separated need to be renewed in the solution according to the invention.
  • a purely dash-dotted perspective heat exchanger 1 is shown vertically above and below upper and lower snap fasteners 2 and 3 between an upper and lower support 4 and 5 respectively.
  • the heat carrier may in particular be a cooling module in the front region of a motor vehicle and comprise a water cooler, condenser and a fan.
  • the upper and lower beams 4 and 5 are shown here in the exemplary embodiment only symbolically for in a motor vehicle in these areas usually present support elements.
  • the inlet and outlet lines for the heat exchanger by flowing fluids are (not shown) each provided at least with flexible portions, so that when providing predetermined breaking points between the heat exchanger 1 and the carriers 4 and 5 at an incoming breakage of the heat exchanger 1 as such undamaged its mounting position can be displaced.
  • Such undamaged displacement of the heat exchanger should be possible in a vehicle accident, so on the one hand no heat exchange fluid can escape and on the other hand a cost-effective repair without replacement of the heat exchanger 1 can be realized.
  • the upper and lower quick-release closures 2 and 3 are designed differently.
  • a lower quick release 3 is described below with reference to the exploded view in Fig. 3 described in more detail.
  • This snap closure 3 is in the form of a dovetail connection.
  • a spring part 6 of the quick-acting closure 3 is an integral part of the heat exchanger 1.
  • the groove part 7 of the quick-action closure 3 complementary to the spring part 6 can be detachably connected to a bearing 9 within the lower support 5 via an integrally formed pin 8.
  • the groove part 7 of the quick-acting closure 3 is designed as a sacrificial part which acts in the event of a breakage.
  • at least one of the two webs 10 of the groove part 7 is provided with a designed as a material weakening breaking point 11.
  • the quick-release closure In the event of a predetermined break in the area of the lower quick-release connection, the quick-release closure inevitably springs open due to a breakage of the web 11 provided with the predetermined breaking point. For a repair, only the groove part 7 is to be replaced.
  • the bearing 9 within the lower carrier 5 is in particular an elastic bearing.
  • the structure of the upper quick-release connection 2 shows the exploded view in Fig. 2 , Fixed and inseparably connected to the heat exchanger 1 there is an upper pin 12.
  • an upper pin 12 Fixed and inseparably connected to the heat exchanger 1 there is an upper pin 12.
  • a complementary quick-closing means for connection to the upper pin 12 is provided with a cap 13 sleeve 14 is provided. With the help of the cap 13, the sleeve 14, after being passed through an opening within the upper support 4 in this upper support 4 fixed, but be snapped releasably.
  • the sleeve 14 is provided with slots 15 for generating predetermined breaking points.
  • an elastic bearing ring 16 is introduced between the interlocking in the upper quick release 2 quick release means, namely the upper pin 12 and the sleeve 14.
  • the lower quick-release closures 3 are renewed by joining the tongue and groove parts 6, 7.
  • the heat exchanger 1 is inserted through the lower pins 8 in the bearing 9 of the lower carrier 5, wherein a pivoting of the heat exchanger 1 by the elasticity of the bearing 9 is possible.
  • the heat exchanger 1 is pivoted to a position in which renewed sleeves 14 of the upper quick-release closures 2 can be connected through the upper support 4 to the respective upper pin 12 of the heat exchanger 1.
  • the sleeves 14 are snapped firmly into the upper support 4 by means of the caps 13 connected thereto.
  • the heat exchanger 1 is operatively mounted with a renewed breakaway bearing, which allows a further accidental breakup.
