Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kondensator (1) für eine Klimaanlage, insbesondere eines Kraftfahrzeuges mit einem Rohrippenblock (2) und seitlich angeordneten Sammelrohren (3, 4), wobei der Rohrrippenblock (2) waagerecht verlaufende Rohre, einen Kondensierabschnitt (P1 bis P5) und einen oberhalb des Kondensierabschnittes angeordneten Unterkühlabschnittt (P6) aufweist, sowie mit einem parallel zu einem der Sammelrohre angeordneten, einen Trockner-Filter-Einsatz (10) und ein Steigrohr (15) aufnehmenden Sammler (5), welcher über eine erste Übertrittsöffnung (8) mit dem Kondensierabschnitt (P5) und über eine zweite Übertrittsöffnung (9) mit dem Unterkühlabschnitt (P6) in Kältemittelverbindung steht.The invention relates to a condenser (1) for an air conditioning system, in particular a motor vehicle with a tube block (2) and laterally arranged collecting tubes (3, 4), said tube rib block (2) horizontally extending tubes, a Kondensierabschnitt (P1 to P5) and a Unterkühlabschnittt arranged above the Kondensierabschnittes (P6), and arranged with a parallel to one of the manifolds, a dryer-filter insert (10) and a riser (15) receiving the collector (5) via a first transfer opening (8) the condensing section (P5) and via a second transfer opening (9) with the sub-cooling section (P6) is in refrigerant communication.

Es wird vorgeschlagen, dass im Bereich der ersten Übertrittsöffnung (8) im Sammler (5) eine Einströmkammer (13) angeordnet ist, welche nach oben durch einen Stopfen (11) und nach unten durch den Trockner-Filter-Einsatz (10) begrenzt ist.

Figure imgaf001
It is proposed that in the region of the first transfer opening (8) in the collector (5) an inflow chamber (13) is arranged, which is bounded above by a plug (11) and down through the dryer-filter insert (10) ,
