Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heat exchanger for gas, in particular the exhaust gas of an engine, of the type comprising a plurality of parallel ducts arranged inside a housing, by means of which the gases to be cooled by exchange thermal circuit with a cooling fluid circulate, said conduits being coupled between two support plates fixed at both ends of said housing, and the housing and the support plates having a substantially rectangular section.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to heat exchangers whose housing, support plates and parallel ducts have a substantially rectangular cross section.
  • it applies to small heat exchangers such as engine exhaust gas recirculation (EGRC) exchangers.
  • EGRC engine exhaust gas recirculation
  • the gases circulate in a set of tubes or parallel conduits arranged inside a housing and they are cooled by heat exchange with a cooling fluid which circulates outside the gas passage ducts.
  • the tubes are fixed at their ends between two support plates coupled to each end of the housing.
  • the two support plates have a plurality of orifices for accommodating the respective tubes.
  • the gases are supplied by means of a bundle of tubes of the exchanger from an intake duct; insofar as the diameter of the intake duct is less than the diameter of the housing and the tube bundle of the exchanger, there exists between them an intake tank which is discharged progressively.
  • Heat exchangers are known whose housing and support plates have a substantially rectangular cross section.
  • the assembly of the exchanger consists first of all to assemble beforehand the assembly formed by the housing, the plurality of tubes and the support plates. Thereafter, it continues with the application on said assembly of a solder paste, the assembly of gas tanks and the oven welding of the complete heat exchanger.
  • the support plates may have a flange for engaging the contour of the housing, or the support plates are engaged by the housing. It is also possible to use baking or laser welding to join the two components together.
  • protuberances allow the operator to quickly identify the face to be located against the housing, insofar as said face is the one that includes the protuberances.
  • said protuberances also have the function of preventing the relative movement of the support plates relative to the housing during the assembly before the welding in the oven. It is possible to achieve this effect through frictional contact of the protuberances with the peripheral zone of the housing, insofar as these protuberances must be made in an area near the periphery of the support plates.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve the disadvantages mentioned above, by developing a heat exchanger which immobilizes the support plates during assembly and welding of the exchanger.
  • the gas heat exchanger in particular the exhaust gas of an engine, object of the present invention, is of the type comprising a plurality of parallel ducts arranged inside a housing, by means of which the gases in front of being cooled by heat exchange with a cooling fluid circulate, said ducts being coupled between two support plates fixed at both ends of said housing, and the housing and the support plates having a substantially rectangular section;
  • the heat exchanger is characterized in that each support plate comprises protuberances arranged near its peripheral zone, said protuberances comprising reliefs likely to come into contact with a peripheral surface of the housing.
  • the protuberances are arranged symmetrically on each support plate. In this way, it is possible to prevent rotation of said support plates.
  • each support plate comprises at least four protuberances.
  • each support plate comprises six protuberances, four protuberances being disposed at each corner of the support plate and the two remaining protuberances being disposed in the middle zone of two opposite sides.
  • the reliefs of the protuberances are oriented towards the inside of the exchanger to assemble the support plates with the housing.
  • the height of the reliefs is 0.5 mm with a tolerance of +0.1 / -0.2 mm; the diameter of the protuberances is 2 mm with a tolerance of +0 / -0.2 mm; and the distance of the protuberances from the edge of the support plate is approximately 1.05 mm with a tolerance of +0.1 / -0 mm.
  • the heat exchanger 1 consists of a housing 2 which contains a bundle of parallel tubes 3 for the passage of gases to be cooled. Inside the housing 2, outside the tubes 3, a cooling fluid flows from an inlet 4 to an outlet (not shown).
  • the gases to be cooled enter the exchanger 1 from a supply duct 5 and through an intake tank 6, which is discharged progressively.
  • the bundle of tubes 3 is fixed at its ends between two support plates 7 coupled to each end of the case 2, FIG. which is located at the admission level.
  • Each support plate 7 has a plurality of orifices 8 for accommodating the respective tubes 3 (see FIG. 2).
  • each support plate 7 comprises a set of protuberances 9 disposed near its peripheral zone. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, said protuberances 9 comprise reliefs 10 oriented towards the inside of the casing 2, capable of coming into contact with a peripheral surface 11 of the casing 2 (see FIG. 1).
