Also, slit forming notches (13a) for forming partition member insertion slits (13) on both side edges of one other base plate made of a brazing sheet having a brazing material layer on both sides, a refrigerant inlet Forming a coolant inlet forming notch for forming the. Moreover, a tube insertion hole (14) is formed in both the base plates.

ついで、一方の素板を、スリット形成用切り欠き(13a)どうし、および冷媒出口形成用切り欠き(12a)どうしが合わさるように筒状に成形するとともに、他方の素板を、スリット形成用切り欠き(13a)どうし、および冷媒入口形成用切り欠きどうしが合わさるように筒状に成形して両側縁部どうしを突き合わせることによりろう付パイプ用筒状体を得る。その後、両ろう付パイプ用筒状体を形成する素板の両側縁部どうしを、素板のろう材層を利用してろう付することにより、ろう付パイプ(10)が製造されている。なお、素板の両側縁部どうしのろう付は、他の部品を一括ろう付するコンデンサ(1)の製造時に行われる。   Next, one base plate is formed into a cylindrical shape so that the slit forming notches (13a) and the refrigerant outlet forming notches (12a) are aligned with each other, and the other base plate is formed with a slit forming cut. A cylindrical body for a brazed pipe is obtained by forming into a cylindrical shape so that the notches (13a) and the refrigerant inlet forming notches are aligned with each other and abutting both side edges. Thereafter, the brazed pipe (10) is manufactured by brazing the both side edges of the base plate forming the cylindrical body for both brazed pipes using the brazing material layer of the base plate. Note that brazing between both side edges of the base plate is performed at the time of manufacturing the capacitor (1) that brazes other parts together.

しかしながら、特許文献1記載の方法によれば、スリット形成用切り欠き(13a)と、冷媒出口形成用切り欠き(12a)または冷媒入口形成用切り欠きとを形成した後に、素板を筒状に成形する際に、これらの切り欠き(13a)(12a)の周囲の部分が変形して切り欠き(13a)(12a)の形状精度および寸法精度が低下するおそれがある。その結果、2つのスリット形成用切り欠き(13a)からなる仕切部材挿入用スリット(13)内に仕切部材(7)を挿入することができなくなったり、冷媒出口形成用切り欠き(12a)からなる冷媒出口(12)と冷媒出口部材(9)の冷媒流出路(9a)、および冷媒入口形成用切り欠きからなる冷媒入口と冷媒入口部材(8)の冷媒流入路(8a)とがずれるおそれがある。

However, according to the method described in Patent Document 1, after forming the slit forming notch (13a) and the refrigerant outlet forming notch (12a) or the refrigerant inlet forming notch, the base plate is formed into a cylindrical shape. At the time of molding, there is a possibility that the portions around the notches (13a) and (12a) are deformed, and the shape accuracy and dimensional accuracy of the notches (13a) and (12a) are lowered. As a result, the partition member (7) cannot be inserted into the partition member insertion slit (13) composed of two slit formation cutouts (13a), or the refrigerant outlet formation cutout (12a). There is a possibility that the refrigerant outlet (12a) and the refrigerant outlet passage (9a) of the refrigerant outlet member (9), and the refrigerant inlet formed of the refrigerant inlet forming notch and the refrigerant inlet passage (8a) of the refrigerant inlet member (8) may be shifted. is there.

図1〜図3はヘッダに用いられるろう付パイプ用筒状体の製造方法を示す。   1 to 3 show a method of manufacturing a tubular body for a brazed pipe used for a header.

まず、両面にアルミニウムろう材層(図示略)を有するブレージングシートからなる素板(20)を用意する(図1(a)参照)。ついで、この素板(20)の右側縁部に、たとえば上下からプレス加工を施すことにより、素板(20)の上面に、先端(右端)に向かって素板(20)の上面側から下面側に傾斜した第1傾斜面(21)を形成するとともに、第1傾斜面(21)の傾斜下端と下面との間に、第1傾斜面(21)と鈍角をなしかつ下面と直角をなす第1平坦面(22)を形成する(図1(b)参照)。ここで、両面にアルミニウムろう材層を有するブレージングシートからなる素板(20)に、上下からプレス加工を施すことにより第1傾斜面(21)および第1平坦面(22)を形成しているので、第1傾斜面(21)はろう材層により覆われることになる。なお、第1平坦面(22)はろう材層により覆われることはない。また、第1傾斜面(21)および第1平坦面(22)を形成する工程において、素板(20)における上面と第1傾斜面(21)との間の部分を部分的に上側に張り出させることによって、素板(20)の上面と第1傾斜面(21)との間に鈍角状のエッジ部(23)を形成する。   First, a base plate (20) made of a brazing sheet having aluminum brazing filler metal layers (not shown) on both sides is prepared (see FIG. 1 (a)).

Here, the first inclined surface (21) and the first flat surface (22) are formed by pressing the base plate (20) made of a brazing sheet having aluminum brazing material layers on both sides from above and below. Therefore, the first inclined surface (21) is covered with the brazing material layer. The first flat surface (22) is not covered with the brazing material layer. Further, in the step of forming the first inclined surface (21) and the first flat surface (22), a portion of the base plate (20) between the upper surface and the first inclined surface (21) is partially stretched upward.

Two flat surfaces (25) are formed (see FIG. 1 (c)). Here, the second inclined surface (24) and the second flat surface (25) are formed by pressing the base plate (20) made of a brazing sheet having an aluminum brazing material layer on both sides from above and below. Therefore, the second inclined surface (24) and the second flat surface (25) are also covered with the brazing material layer. The vertical width of the second flat surface (25) is narrower than the vertical width of the first flat surface (22). In the step of forming the second inclined surface (24) and the second flat surface (25), an acute edge portion (26) is formed between the upper surface of the base plate (20) and the second inclined surface (24). ) Formation.
