Abstract

Es wird ein Wärmetauscher (10) zum Wärmetausch zwischen einem ersten Fluid, insbesondere einer Ladeluft oder einem Abgas, und einem zweiten Fluid, insbesondere einem Kühlmittel, angegeben, welcher aufweist; einen Block zur voneinander getrennten und wärmetauschenden Führung des ersten und zweiten Fluids, weicher Block eine Anzahl von dem ersten Fluid durchströmbarer Strömungskanäle aufweist; mindestens einen dem Block zugeordneten Kasten (3), welcher mit den Strömungskanälen strömungsverbunden ist und mindestens einen Boden (1), der mit einer oder mit mehreren Durchgangsöffnungen zur Durchführung der Strömungskanäle zwischen dem Block und dem Kasten (3) versehen ist; wobei wenigstens eine Durchgangsöffnung als ein Durchzug (17) mit einem Kragen (7) gebildet ist. Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass der Kragen (7) einen bodennahen Abschnitt (23) und einen endseitigen Abschnitt (25) aufweist, wobei ein Wandquerschnitt (d) des endseitigen Abschnitts (25) geringer als ein Wandquerschnitt (D) des bodennahen Abschnitts (23) ist und zwischen dem bodennahen und dem endseitigen Abschnitt (23, 25) wenigstens ein Absatz (27, 28) angeordnet ist, der eine quer zur Kontur (33, 35) des bodennahen Abschnitts (23) und/oder des endseitigen Abschnitts (25) verlaufende Absatzkontur (29) aufweist und wobei der endseitige Abschnitt (25) von einer Durchzugsachse (37) weggeneigt ist. Es wird auch eine Verwendung und ein Herstellungsverfahren angegeben,

The invention relates to a heat exchanger (10) for exchanging heat between a first fluid, in particular a charge air or an exhaust gas, and a second fluid, in particular a coolant, which has; a block for the separate and heat exchanging guidance of the first and second fluid, the block having a number of flow channels through which the first fluid can flow; at least one box (3) associated with the block, which is in fluid communication with the flow channels and at least one floor (1) provided with one or more through holes for passage of the flow channels between the block and the box (3); wherein at least one passage opening is formed as a passage (17) with a collar (7). The invention provides that the collar (7) has a bottom portion (23) and an end portion (25), wherein a wall cross section (d) of the end portion (25) is less than a wall cross section (D) of the bottom portion (23 ) and between the ground-level and the end-side section (23, 25) at least one shoulder (27, 28) is arranged, which is transverse to the contour (33, 35) of the ground-level portion (23) and / or the end-side portion (25 ) running paragraph contour (29) and wherein the end-side portion (25) of a pull-through axis (37) is inclined away. It also specifies a use and a manufacturing method,
