Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the manufacturing cost of a heat exchanger integrated with a liquid receiver by decreasing the number of parts and the labor for assembling work. SOLUTION: In the heat exchanger integrated with a liquid receiver, an internally threaded member 3 of aluminum alloy is fitted in an opening on one end side of an aluminum alloy liquid receiver body 2 assembled along the widthwise direction of a heat exchanger body 1. An externally threaded resin cap 4 having an externally threaded part 42, being screwed into an internally threaded part 38 provided on the inner circumference of the internally threaded member 3, is screwed into the internally threaded member 3. The externally threaded resin cap 4 is provided with a filter 5 molded integrally of resin. According to the structure, the number of parts is decreased and scoring (possibility of twisting off an externally threaded screw) is prevented. Furthermore, number of O-rings 43 can be decreased from two to one by pressing a seal part 39, provided at the open end of the internally threaded member 3, against an annular abutting part 46 provided at one end of the externally threaded cap 4 to bite into the abutting part 46 thereby ensuring airtightness.
