2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a header in a heat exchanger using a flat multi-hole tube as this type of tube material, for example, JP-A-60-187461.
As shown in No. 6, a multi-hole tube is known in which a connecting short tube is attached to the tip of the multi-hole tube.
The connecting short pipe was attached to the flat multi-hole pipe in the following manner.

That is, the tip of a flat multi-hole tube, which is a tube material bent and formed in a predetermined meandering shape in advance, is swaged to form a tapered reduced diameter insertion portion. On the other hand, as a short pipe for connection, an electric resistance welded pipe with brazing material coated on the outer surface is used, one end of which is closed with a lid etc. to form a blind pipe, and a flat wall long in the axial direction is formed on a part of the peripheral wall. By forming a multi-hole pipe insertion hole, forcibly inserting the tip of the multi-hole pipe into the insertion hole, and if necessary, by caulking with a mold so as not to create a gap around them, Temporary joining was performed in a close state, and the brazing and brazing were performed by heating the two to firmly join and integrate them.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in such a header forming method, there is a problem that the number of steps is large and the production efficiency is poor as described above, resulting in an increase in manufacturing cost. If the insertion hole is not accurately formed in a shape and size corresponding to the tip of the multi-hole pipe, a gap is formed around the multi-hole pipe in a temporarily joined state, which results in defective brazing. There was a fear.

Further, when joining the multi-hole pipe and the connecting short pipe, if the multi-hole pipe is too deeply inserted into the insertion hole, the flow of the refrigerant from the refrigerant passage hole of the multi-hole pipe into the connecting short pipe is obstructed. Therefore, there is a difficulty that the assembly is a little troublesome.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As described above, the header processing method for a flat multi-hole pipe according to the present invention is performed by cutting or cutting and inflating the end portion (3) of the flat multi-hole pipe (1), and then crushing and closing the pipe. The header (H) is formed by processing and joining, and the header (H) is formed by using the peripheral wall itself of the flat multi-hole pipe (1) without using a separate member such as a connecting short pipe as in the conventional case. H) is configured, it is possible to reduce the number of parts used and the number of steps as compared with the conventional method, and thus it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost.

Moreover, since the header (H) is composed of the peripheral wall of the flat multi-hole pipe (1), the end of the flat multi-hole pipe is inserted into the insertion hole formed in the connecting short pipe as in the conventional case. However, compared to the case where both are fixed by brazing, there is no risk of leakage of the refrigerant, and moreover, the flow of the refrigerant is obstructed by inserting the flat multi-hole pipe too much into the connecting short pipe as in the past. It is possible to avoid such inconvenience, and thus easily provide a product of good quality with no variation.
