Definitions
- the invention relates to a heat exchanger according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for producing a heat exchanger according to the preamble of claim 3. Furthermore, one embodiment of the invention relates to a motor vehicle air conditioning system.
- Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one fluid to another fluid.
- a heat exchanger transfers heat from a cooling liquid to the ambient air. This is used in particular in motor vehicles in which the heat exchanger is used to transfer the waste heat released by the internal combustion engine to the ambient air.
- the heat exchanger generally consists of two header tubes, between which a large number of tubes are arranged. Openings into which the pipes open are made in the header pipes. The tubes are connected in a fluid-tight manner to the openings in the header tubes.
- the openings in the headers are made by punching or piercing.
- punching through a wall of the collecting tube the opening is punched through, so that that part of the wall which forms the subsequent opening is removed.
- the bearing surface of the tubes in the openings of the header tubes thus corresponds to the thickness of the wall of the header tube in the area of the opening.
- an annular passage is formed at the openings, which corresponds to the deformed wall of the collecting tube in the partial area.
- the sub-area is that area of the wall of the collecting pipe which corresponds to the opening after the production.
- the passage, which the wall of the collecting pipe corresponds in the area of the openings is essentially not stretched during the piercing, but only bent. This corresponds to a cross-section z.
- the length of the passage or the contact surface of the pipe at the opening has a significant influence on the mechanical stress on the connection between the pipe and the collecting pipe.
- a mechanical stress on this connection results, for example, from thermal stresses due to large compressive and / or tensile forces or expansions in the pipes or the manifold, as well as superimposed bends and bends or deformations of the pipes or the manifold. This can cause damage, in particular leaks, to the connection between the pipe and the header pipe, which leads to a failure of the heat exchanger.
- This is generally associated with high costs because it is not possible to repair the heat exchanger and it therefore has to be replaced.
- the leakage of the heat exchanger leads to a loss of cooling liquid, so that the journey with the motor vehicle has to be interrupted.
- the EP 0 990 868 B1 shows a generic heat exchanger.
- the thickness of the passages in which the pipes are introduced corresponds to the thickness of the wall of the collecting pipe outside the openings for inserting the pipes.
- there is only a small contact surface of the pipe on the passage so that there is only a low mechanical strength in this important connection area between the pipe and the collecting pipe.
- a generic heat exchanger is known.
- the openings are pierced by a punch. After the wall of the collecting tube has been pierced with the punch, some of the passages are cut off. As a result, the passages have a short length in the direction of the axis of the opening, so that a small contact area is formed between the pipe and the passage. Disadvantageously, this results in a low mechanical strength between the pipe and the collecting pipe in the area of the passage.
- the DE 696 17 598 T2 shows a generic heat exchanger.
- a header plate has openings into which the ends of flat tubes are inserted which are connected to the wall of the header plate by means of soldering. To facilitate this connection, each hole is surrounded by a collar.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to improve the mechanical strength between the pipes and the header pipe in a heat exchanger, a motor vehicle air conditioning system and a method for producing a heat exchanger.
- the heat exchanger and the motor vehicle air conditioning system should work inexpensively to manufacture and reliable and safe in operation.
- the method for producing a heat exchanger should be able to be carried out simply and inexpensively.
- the object is achieved with a heat exchanger according to claim 1.
- the object is also achieved with a method according to claim 3.
- the object is achieved with a motor vehicle air conditioning system according to claim 6.
- the thickness of the passages increases from the beginning of the passages on the wall of the collecting pipe to one end of the passages, preferably steadily, from.
- the end of the passage can either end in the flow space of the collecting pipe, ie end in the same way as the end of the pipe which is arranged in the collecting pipe or end outside the collecting pipe, ie the end of the passage ends in the opposite direction than the end of the pipe , which is arranged in the manifold.

- the thickness of the passages from the beginning at the bottom to 0.8 times the total length of the passage in front of a tip is less than 0.9 times the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings Manifold.
- the maximum length of the passages is preferably greater than half, in particular greater than 1.1 to 3 times half the minimum diameter of the openings.
- the wall of the collecting pipe in the partial area of the later opening is reshaped or bent to form the passage, and the passage is also stretched.
- the maximum length of the passage is greater than half the minimum diameter of the opening.
- the minimum diameter of the opening corresponds to the width of the opening.
- the length of the passage is greater than half the width of the opening, because the wall of the collecting tube during the production of the passage is stretched.
- half of the minimum diameter thus corresponds to the radius of the opening.
- the pipes are expediently connected to the passages in a fluid-tight, in particular liquid-tight manner, with a material fit, preferably by soldering.
- the tubes and / or the at least one collecting tube consist at least partially of aluminum and / or aluminum alloys and / or of plastic.
- the collecting tube can consist of a base made of metal, in particular aluminum, and a box made of plastic.

- the collecting tube can consist, for example, of a base with an approximately U-shaped cross section and a cover. Both the base and the cover are made of metal, in particular aluminum.
- a channel is formed on the cover, by means of which the cover is connected to the floor in a fluid-tight manner.

- the passages are stretched in such a way that the thickness of the passages from a start at the bottom to a tip of the passages is at least 10% of the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipe, the length of the tip being the Passages at least 10% of the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipe.
- the wall of the at least one collecting pipe is stretched in the partial areas in a separate operation before the piercing.
- the expansion of the wall of the at least one collecting pipe is thus carried out in time before the piercing.
- the stretching can be carried out both in a partial area of the wall of the at least one collecting pipe in which the subsequent opening is created, and beyond this area. If the wall is stretched beyond this partial area, the thickness of the wall of the collecting pipe is considered to be that part which is not stretched. When the wall is stretched, an expression is created in the sub-area.

- a seal 12 is arranged in the channel 21.
- the seal 12, an elastic part, serves to connect the bottom 9 to the box 10 in a liquid-tight manner.
- An opening wall 14 of the collecting pipe 3 or of the bottom 9 has been shaped into a passage 7.
- the end of the passage 7 ends in the flow space 25 of the collecting pipe 3.
- the passage 7 thus represents the former opening wall 14 of the base 9 ( Fig. 5 ), which has been formed into the passage 7.

- the plane of the drawing is parallel to a plane of a broad side wall of the tube 2 and perpendicular to a plane of a narrow side wall 28 of the tube 2.
- the length 18 of the passage 7 is greater than half the minimum diameter 29 of the opening 13, because the wall 8 of the bottom 9 has been stretched in the sub-area 20 during the formation of the passage 7.
- the opening 13 is also rectangular in shape corresponding to the rectangular cross-section of the tube 2.
- the length 18 of the passage 7 is greater than half the width of the opening 13.

- the distance between the passage 7 and the pipe 2 is, for example, in the range between 0.2 and 1 mm, so that the brazing material can penetrate into this gap by capillary action. If the tubes 2 and the base 9 are plated with a solder and the soldered connection is made in a soldering furnace, no spacing is required.
- the thickness of the passage 7 decreases steadily from the beginning of the passage 7 on the wall 8 of the base 9 or of the collecting pipe 3 to the end of the passage 7 at the tip 15 of the passage 7. This results from the production of the passage 7.
- the middle area is stretched more than the edge area of the sub-area 20 near the non-deformed or stretched wall 8 of the base 9 the passage 7 is also stretched when it is pierced and this stretching is also greater here in the region of the end of the passage 7 than at the beginning of the passage 7.
- Fig. 5 a partial longitudinal section of the bottom 9 after the penetration of the sub-area 20 is shown.
- the passages 7 are formed parallel to an axis 24 of the opening 13.
- Fig. 6 is a view of the openings 13 shown in the direction of an axis of the openings.
- the openings 13 are rectangular and have a minimum diameter 29 and a maximum diameter 30.
- a second embodiment of the manifold 3 of the heat exchanger 1 is shown.
- the bottom 9 is designed in such a way that there is a small distance in the range between 0 and 2 mm between an outside of the channel 21 and the pipe 2.
- this gap with a thickness between 0 and 2 mm there is a material connection 22 designed as a soldered connection 23.
- the thickness of this gap between the outside of the channel 21 and the outside of the pipe 2 is preferably 0.2 to 0.8 mm, so that the soldering material for the soldered connection 23 can expand capillary in the gap and rise.
- the pipe 2 is thus advantageously also connected to the base 9 and thereby the strength of the mechanical connection between the pipe 2 and the base 9 or the collecting pipe 3 is increased.
- Mechanical stress which results in particular from thermal deformations of the heat exchanger 1, can thereby be better absorbed. Damage to the heat exchanger 1 resulting from damage to the connection between the pipe 2 and the header pipe 3 can thereby be reduced.
- the heat exchanger 1 according to the invention is associated with considerable advantages.
- the passage 7 is stretched in such a way that the length 18 of the passage 7 is stretched in the direction of the axis 24 of the opening 13.
- This increases the contact surface between the pipe 2 and the passage 7, formed as a soldered connection 23.
- the mechanical stresses on the connection between the pipe 2 and the passage 7, which result in particular from thermal deformations of the heat exchanger 1, can thereby be absorbed more easily. Damage to the heat exchanger 1 resulting therefrom, for example leaks at the connection between the tube 2 and the passage 7, can thereby be significantly reduced.
- the larger contact surface thus leads to a larger contact surface and support surface of the pipe 2 on the passage 7. This can significantly increase the reliability of a heat exchanger 1 according to the invention and a motor vehicle air conditioning system according to the invention.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wärmetauscher gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Wärmetauschers gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 3. Ferner betrifft eine Ausgestaltung der Erfindung eine Kraftfahrzeugklimaanlage.The invention relates to a heat exchanger according to the preamble of
Wärmetauscher dienen zur Übertragung von Wärme von einem Fluid auf ein anderes Fluid. Beispielsweise wird von einem Wärmetauscher Wärme aus einer Kühlflüssigkeit an die Umgebungsluft übertragen. Dies wird insbesondere in Kraftfahrzeugen genutzt, bei denen der Wärmetauscher dazu dient, die von dem Verbrennungsmotor freiwerdende Abwärme an die Umgebungsluft abzugeben. Der Wärmetauscher besteht im Allgemeinen aus zwei Sammelrohren, zwischen denen eine Vielzahl an Rohren angeordnet ist. In den Sammelrohren sind Öffnungen eingebracht, in denen die Rohre münden. Die Rohre sind fluiddicht mit den Öffnungen der Sammelrohre verbunden.Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one fluid to another fluid. For example, a heat exchanger transfers heat from a cooling liquid to the ambient air. This is used in particular in motor vehicles in which the heat exchanger is used to transfer the waste heat released by the internal combustion engine to the ambient air. The heat exchanger generally consists of two header tubes, between which a large number of tubes are arranged. Openings into which the pipes open are made in the header pipes. The tubes are connected in a fluid-tight manner to the openings in the header tubes.
Die Öffnungen in den Sammelrohren werden mittels Durchstanzen oder Durchstoßen hergestellt. Beim Durchstanzen einer Wandung des Sammelrohres wird die Öffnung durchgestanzt, so dass derjenige Teilbereich der Wandung, welcher die spätere Öffnung bildet, entfernt wird. Die Auflagefläche der Rohre in den Öffnungen der Sammelrohre entspricht damit der Dicke der Wandung des Sammelrohres im Bereich der Öffnung. Beim Durchstoßen der Öffnungen durch die Wandung des Sammelrohres bildet sich an den Öffnungen ein ringförmiger Durchzug aus, der der verformten Wandung des Sammelrohres in dem Teilbereich entspricht. Der Teilbereich ist derjenige Bereich der Wandung des Sammelrohres, welcher nach der Herstellung der Öffnung entspricht. Der Durchzug, welcher der Wandung des Sammelrohres im Bereich der Öffnungen entspricht, wird bei dem Durchstoßen im Wesentlichen nicht gedehnt, sondern nur gebogen. Dadurch entspricht bei einer im Querschnitt z. B. kreisförmigen Öffnung die Länge des Durchzuges dem Radius der Öffnung.The openings in the headers are made by punching or piercing. When punching through a wall of the collecting tube, the opening is punched through, so that that part of the wall which forms the subsequent opening is removed. The bearing surface of the tubes in the openings of the header tubes thus corresponds to the thickness of the wall of the header tube in the area of the opening. When the openings are pierced through the wall of the collecting tube, an annular passage is formed at the openings, which corresponds to the deformed wall of the collecting tube in the partial area. The sub-area is that area of the wall of the collecting pipe which corresponds to the opening after the production. The passage, which the wall of the collecting pipe corresponds in the area of the openings, is essentially not stretched during the piercing, but only bent. This corresponds to a cross-section z. B. circular opening the length of the passage the radius of the opening.
Die Länge des Durchzuges bzw. die Auflagefläche des Rohres an der Öffnung hat auf die mechanische Beanspruchung der Verbindung zwischen dem Rohr und dem Sammelrohr einen wesentlichen Einfluss. Eine mechanische Beanspruchung dieser Verbindung resultiert beispielsweise aus thermischen Beanspruchungen aufgrund großer Druck- und oder Zugkräfte oder Ausdehnungen in den Rohren oder dem Sammelrohr sowie Biegungsüberlagerungen und Aufbiegungen bzw. Verformungen der Rohre oder des Sammelrohres. Dadurch können Schäden, insbesondere Undichtigkeiten, an der Verbindung zwischen dem Rohr und dem Sammelrohr entstehen, was zu einem Ausfall des Wärmetauschers führt. Dies ist im Allgemeinen mit hohen Kosten verbunden, weil eine Reparatur des Wärmetauschers nicht möglich ist und dieser dadurch ausgetauscht werden muss. Insbesondere führt bei Kraftfahrzeugen das Undichtwerden des Wärmetauschers zu einem Verlust an Kühlflüssigkeit, so dass die Fahrt mit dem Kraftfahrzeug unterbrochen werden muss.The length of the passage or the contact surface of the pipe at the opening has a significant influence on the mechanical stress on the connection between the pipe and the collecting pipe. A mechanical stress on this connection results, for example, from thermal stresses due to large compressive and / or tensile forces or expansions in the pipes or the manifold, as well as superimposed bends and bends or deformations of the pipes or the manifold. This can cause damage, in particular leaks, to the connection between the pipe and the header pipe, which leads to a failure of the heat exchanger. This is generally associated with high costs because it is not possible to repair the heat exchanger and it therefore has to be replaced. In particular, in motor vehicles the leakage of the heat exchanger leads to a loss of cooling liquid, so that the journey with the motor vehicle has to be interrupted.

Der Wärmetauscher und die Kraftfahrzeugklimaanlage sollen in der Herstellung preiswert und im Betrieb zuverlässig und sicher arbeiten. Ferner soll das Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Wärmetauschers einfach und preiswert ausgeführt werden können.The object of the present invention is therefore to improve the mechanical strength between the pipes and the header pipe in a heat exchanger, a motor vehicle air conditioning system and a method for producing a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger and the motor vehicle air conditioning system should work inexpensively to manufacture and reliable and safe in operation. Furthermore, the method for producing a heat exchanger should be able to be carried out simply and inexpensively.
Die Aufgabe wird mit einem Wärmetauscher gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Auch wird die Aufgabe mit einem Verfahren nach Anspruch 3 gelöst. Weiterhin wird die Aufgabe mit einer Kraftfahrzeugklimaanlage nach Anspruch 6 gelöst.The object is achieved with a heat exchanger according to
Erfindungsgemäß nimmt die Dicke der Durchzüge von dem Beginn der Durchzüge an der Wandung des Sammelrohres zu einem Ende der Durchzüge, vorzugsweise stetig, ab. Das Ende des Durchzuges kann entweder im Strömungsraum des Sammelrohres enden, d. h. in gleicher Weise enden wie das Ende des Rohres, das in dem Sammelrohr angeordnet ist oder aber außerhalb des Sammelrohres enden, d. h. das Ende des Durchzuges endet in entgegengesetzter Richtung als dasjenige Ende des Rohres, das in dem Sammelrohr angeordnet ist.According to the invention, the thickness of the passages increases from the beginning of the passages on the wall of the collecting pipe to one end of the passages, preferably steadily, from. The end of the passage can either end in the flow space of the collecting pipe, ie end in the same way as the end of the pipe which is arranged in the collecting pipe or end outside the collecting pipe, ie the end of the passage ends in the opposite direction than the end of the pipe , which is arranged in the manifold.
In einer erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform beträgt die Dicke der Durchzüge von einem Beginn an dem Boden bis zu einer Spitze der Durchzüge wenigstens 10 % der Dicke der Wandung, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungen, des Sammelrohres, wobei die Länge der Spitze des Durchzuges wenigstens 10 % der Dicke der Wandung, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungen, der Sammelrohre beträgt.In one embodiment according to the invention, the thickness of the passages from the beginning at the bottom to a tip of the passages is at least 10% of the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipe, the length of the tip of the passage being at least 10% of the thickness the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipes.
In einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung beträgt die Dicke der Durchzüge von einem Beginn an dem Boden bis zum 0,8-fachen der Gesamtlänge des Durchzuges vor einer Spitze weniger als das 0,9-fache der Dicke der Wandung, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungen, des Sammelrohres.In a further embodiment according to the invention, the thickness of the passages from the beginning at the bottom to 0.8 times the total length of the passage in front of a tip is less than 0.9 times the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings Manifold.
Vorzugsweise ist die maximale Länge der Durchzüge größer als die Hälfte, insbesondere größer als das 1,1 bis 3-fache der Hälfte, des minimalen Durchmessers der Öffnungen. Die Wandung des Sammelrohres im Teilbereich der späteren Öffnung wird zu dem Durchzug umgeformt bzw. umgebogen und des Weiteren wird der Durchzug gedehnt. Dadurch ist die maximale Länge des Durchzuges größer als die Hälfte des minimalen Durchmessers der Öffnung. Bei einem im Querschnitt rechteckförmigen Rohr bzw. Öffnung entspricht der minimale Durchmesser der Öffnung der Breite der Öffnung. Die Länge des Durchzuges ist größer als die Hälfte der Breite der Öffnung, weil die Wandung des Sammelrohres bei der Herstellung des Durchzuges gedehnt wird. Bei einem im Querschnitt kreisförmigen Rohr oder Öffnung entspricht die Hälfte des minimalen Durchmessers damit dem Radius der Öffnung.The maximum length of the passages is preferably greater than half, in particular greater than 1.1 to 3 times half the minimum diameter of the openings. The wall of the collecting pipe in the partial area of the later opening is reshaped or bent to form the passage, and the passage is also stretched. As a result, the maximum length of the passage is greater than half the minimum diameter of the opening. In the case of a tube or opening with a rectangular cross section, the minimum diameter of the opening corresponds to the width of the opening. The length of the passage is greater than half the width of the opening, because the wall of the collecting tube during the production of the passage is stretched. In the case of a pipe or opening with a circular cross-section, half of the minimum diameter thus corresponds to the radius of the opening.
Zweckmäßig sind die Rohre stoffschlüssig, vorzugsweise mittels Löten, mit den Durchzügen fluiddicht, insbesondere flüssigkeitsdicht, verbunden.The pipes are expediently connected to the passages in a fluid-tight, in particular liquid-tight manner, with a material fit, preferably by soldering.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform bestehen die Rohre und/oder das wenigstens eine Sammelrohr wenigstens teilweise aus Aluminium und/oder Aluminiumlegierungen und/oder aus Kunststoff.In a further embodiment, the tubes and / or the at least one collecting tube consist at least partially of aluminum and / or aluminum alloys and / or of plastic.
Das Sammelrohr kann auch mehrteilig ausgebildet sein. Beispielsweise kann das Sammelrohr aus einem Boden aus Metall, insbesondere Aluminium, bestehen und aus einem Kasten aus Kunststoff. Der Kasten ist im Querschnitt beispielsweise U-förmig ausgebildet und in Rinnen des Bodens befestigt. Die fluiddichte Verbindung zwischen dem Kasten und dem Boden wird mittels einer Dichtung in der Rinne hergestellt. Dadurch bildet sich zwischen dem Boden und dem Kasten ein Strömungsraum aus. In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung kann das Sammelrohr beispielsweise aus einem im Querschnitt ungefähr U-förmigen Boden sowie einem Deckel bestehen. Sowohl der Boden als auch der Deckel sind aus Metall, insbesondere Aluminium, hergestellt. An dem Deckel ist eine Rinne ausgebildet, mittels der der Deckel fluiddicht mit dem Boden verbunden ist. Die Abdichtung zwischen der Rinne des Deckels und dem Boden erfolgt im Allgemeinen ohne gesonderte Dichtung.The manifold can also be constructed in several parts. For example, the collecting tube can consist of a base made of metal, in particular aluminum, and a box made of plastic. The box is, for example, U-shaped in cross section and fastened in grooves in the floor. The fluid-tight connection between the box and the floor is made by means of a seal in the channel. This creates a flow space between the floor and the box. In a further embodiment, the collecting tube can consist, for example, of a base with an approximately U-shaped cross section and a cover. Both the base and the cover are made of metal, in particular aluminum. A channel is formed on the cover, by means of which the cover is connected to the floor in a fluid-tight manner. The seal between the channel in the cover and the base is generally made without a separate seal.

Gemäß der Erfindung werden die Durchzüge dahingehend gedehnt, dass die Dicke der Durchzüge von einem Beginn an dem Boden bis zu einer Spitze der Durchzüge wenigstens 10% der Dicke der Wandung, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungen, des Sammelrohres beträgt, wobei die Länge der Spitze der Durchzüge wenigstens 10 % der Dicke der Wandung, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungen, des Sammelrohres beträgt.According to the invention, the passages are stretched in such a way that the thickness of the passages from a start at the bottom to a tip of the passages is at least 10% of the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipe, the length of the tip being the Passages at least 10% of the thickness of the wall, in particular in the area of the openings, of the collecting pipe.
In einer ergänzenden Variante wird das Dehnen der Wandung des wenigstens einen Sammelrohres in den Teilbereichen in einem gesonderten Arbeitsgang vor dem Durchstoßen durchgeführt. Das Dehnen der Wandung des wenigstens einen Sammelrohres wird somit zeitlich vor dem Durchstoßen ausgeführt. Das Dehnen kann sowohl in einem Teilbereich der Wandung des wenigstens einen Sammelrohres durchgeführt werden, in der die spätere Öffnung entsteht, als auch über diesen Bereich hinaus. Sofern das Dehnen der Wandung über diesen Teilbereich hinaus ausgeführt wird, wird als Dicke der Wandung des Sammelrohres derjenige Teil angesehen, der nicht gedehnt ist. In dem Teilbereich entsteht damit beim Dehnen der Wandung eine Ausprägung.In a supplementary variant, the wall of the at least one collecting pipe is stretched in the partial areas in a separate operation before the piercing. The expansion of the wall of the at least one collecting pipe is thus carried out in time before the piercing. The stretching can be carried out both in a partial area of the wall of the at least one collecting pipe in which the subsequent opening is created, and beyond this area. If the wall is stretched beyond this partial area, the thickness of the wall of the collecting pipe is considered to be that part which is not stretched. When the wall is stretched, an expression is created in the sub-area.
Zweckmäßig wird von der Wandung kein Material, z. B. mittels Stanzen, entfernt, d. h. die Öffnung wird ausschließlich mittels Verformen, insbesondere Biegen, der Wandung des Sammelrohres hergestellt.Appropriately, no material such. B. by means of punching, removed, that is, the opening is made exclusively by deforming, in particular bending, the wall of the manifold.
In einer ergänzenden Variante wird das Dehnen der Wandung des wenigstens einen Sammelrohres in den Teilbereichen mit einem anderen Werkzeug als das Durchstoßen durchgeführt.In a supplementary variant, the wall of the at least one collecting pipe is stretched in the partial areas with a tool other than the piercing.
Der Abschnitt des Sammelrohres, an dem die Öffnungen eingeprägt und durchstoßen werden, kann unterschiedliche Formen aufweisen. Beispielsweise kann das Sammelrohr in diesem Bereich eben oder gekrümmt sein.The section of the collecting tube on which the openings are embossed and pierced can have different shapes. For example, the collecting tube can be flat or curved in this area.

Insgesamt betrachtet sind mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Wärmetauscher 1 erhebliche Vorteile verbunden. Bei der Herstellung des Durchzuges 7 wird der Durchzug 7 dahingehend gedehnt, dass die Länge 18 des Durchzuges 7 in Richtung der Achse 24 der Öffnung 13 gedehnt wird. Dadurch erhöht sich die als Lötverbindung 23 ausgebildete Kontaktfläche zwischen dem Rohr 2 und dem Durchzug 7. Die mechanischen Beanspruchungen der Verbindung zwischen dem Rohr 2 und dem Durchzug 7, die insbesondere aus thermischen Verformungen des Wärmetauschers 1 resultieren, können dadurch leichter aufgenommen werden. Daraus resultierende Schäden an dem Wärmetauscher 1, beispielsweise Undichtigkeiten an der Verbindung zwischen dem Rohr 2 und dem Durchzug 7, können dadurch wesentlich verringert werden. Die größere Kontaktfläche führt somit zu einer größeren Anlagefläche und Abstützfläche des Rohres 2 an dem Durchzug 7. Dadurch kann die Zuverlässigkeit eines erfindungsgemäßen Wärmetauschers 1 und einer erfindungsgemäßen Kraftfahrzeugklimaanlage signifikant erhöht werden.Viewed overall, the
