In the present embodiment, the second inlet hole 115b and the second outlet hole 117b are formed at one side of the first inlet hole 115a based on a center partitioned from one surface of the heat dissipation unit 110. It is formed in a diagonal direction and is formed to face each other in the first inlet hole (115a) and the first outlet hole (117a).

The third inflow hole 115c and the third discharge hole 117c are formed in a diagonal direction on the other side where the first discharge hole 117a is formed based on a center partitioned from one surface of the heat dissipation unit 110. The first inlet hole 115a and the first outlet hole 117a are formed to face each other.

The branch portion 120 interconnects between the first inflow hole 115a and the first discharge hole 117a and is formed to protrude to one surface of the heat dissipation part 110.

In this embodiment, the coolant is circulated through the first inlet hole 115a and the first outlet hole 117a, and the transmission oil is circulated through the second inlet hole 115b and the second outlet hole 117b. The engine oil is circulated through the third inlet hole 115c and the third outlet hole 117c.

Meanwhile, connection ports 130 are respectively installed in the first, second and third inlet holes 115a, 115b and 115c and the first, second and third discharge holes 117a, 117b and 117c, respectively. It may be connected to the radiator 15, the automatic transmission 21, and the engine 17 through a connection hose or a connection pipe to the connection port 130.

In this embodiment, each of the connection passages 113 is divided into first, second, and third connection passages 113a, 113b, and 113c, which will be described in more detail below.

First, the first connection flow passage 113a moves through the coolant through the first inlet hole 115a in the heat dissipation unit 110.

The second connection passage 113b and the third connection passage 113c are alternately formed with the first connection passage 113a and partitioned through the ribs 140.

Here, the rib 140 is based on the longitudinal direction of the heat dissipation unit 110 to prevent the transmission oil and the engine oil flowing through the second connection passage 113b and the third connection passage 113c. It is formed in the center.

That is, the ribs 140 are formed in the center of the length direction of each plate 111 to be stacked, and the second and third connection passages are formed with the first connection channel 113a interposed therebetween. It divides into (113b, 113c).

Accordingly, the transmission oil flowing through the second inflow hole 115b moves in the second connection flow passage 113b, and the third inflow passage 113c moves through the third inflow hole 115c. Inflowing engine oil is moved.

The branch part 120 is a coolant introduced into the first inlet hole 115a separately from the first connection passage 113a at a position close to the first inlet hole 115a and the first outlet hole 117b. A separate bypass flow passage 121 is formed to immediately discharge the gas to the first discharge hole 117a.

Here, the bypass passage 121 does not flow into the first connection passage 113a of the heat dissipation unit 110 when the flow rate of the cooling water is small when the cooling water flows through the first inflow hole 115a. Instead, the first discharge hole 117a is discharged directly.

The bypass passage 121, as shown in (S1) of Figure 5, when the transmission oil warm-up according to the state or mode of the vehicle, such as the driving state, the idle mode, or the initial start-up of the vehicle, the cooling water to the first By bypassing the inflow passage 113a, the engine oil and the transmission oil flowing through the second and third connection passages 113b and 113c are prevented from decreasing in temperature through heat exchange with the cooling water. .

On the contrary, when the flow rate of the cooling water is large, the cooling water is introduced into the first connection passage 113a together with the bypass passage 121 as shown in FIG. 5 (S2).

Accordingly, the coolant passing through the first connection passage 113a flows in from the automatic transmission 21 and the engine 17 through the second inflow hole 115b and the third inflow hole 115c, respectively. The engine oil and the transmission oil passing through the third connection passages 113b and 113c are respectively heat-exchanged inside the heat dissipation unit 110.

Here, the transmission oil and the engine oil, respectively, as shown in Figure 6, is introduced through the second inlet hole (115b) and the third inlet hole (115c), the rib inside the heat dissipation unit (110) ( After passing through the second and third connection passages 113b and 113c respectively formed by partitioning through 140, the automatic transmission 21 is discharged through the second discharge hole 117b and the third discharge hole 117c, respectively. And to the engine 17.

Accordingly, when the vehicle runs, the engine oil whose temperature is increased by the operation of the engine 17 and the transmission oil that is heated by the fluid friction generated by the operation of the torque converter and require cooling are cooled by the heat dissipation unit 110. It is supplied to the engine 17 and the automatic transmission 21 in a cooled state through mutual heat exchange with.

That is, the heat exchanger 100 supplies the cooled engine oil and the transmission oil to the automatic transmission 21 which is rotated at high speed with the engine 17 when the vehicle runs, thereby knocking and knocking the engine 17. This prevents rancidity and prevents slippage of the automatic transmission 21.

On the contrary, when the vehicle is initially started or idled, the flow rate of the coolant flowing into the heat exchanger 100 is small, so that the coolant is bypassed to the bypass passage 121 of the branch 120 so that the engine oil and the transmission oil The heat exchange is small, so warm-up is possible, and heating performance can be improved.

In addition, after the vehicle is started, during the high speed driving, the temperature of the engine oil and the transmission oil is increased by heat exchange in the heat dissipation unit 110 with coolant having a rapid temperature rise and then supplied to the engine 17 and the automatic transmission 21. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the frictional loss in the engine 17 and the automatic transmission 21 to increase fuel economy.

Therefore, according to the vehicle heat exchanger 100 and the cooling system having the same according to an embodiment of the present invention configured as described above, when the respective operating fluids control the temperature through mutual heat exchange therein, It is possible to efficiently control the temperature of the introduced working fluid to perform the warm-up function and the cooling function of the working fluid at the same time by using the inflow flow rate of the working fluid according to the driving condition or the initial starting condition.

In addition, it is possible to adjust the temperature of the working fluid according to the state of the vehicle, it is possible to improve the fuel economy of the vehicle, and to improve the heating performance, it is possible to simplify the configuration to reduce the assembly labor.

In addition, by removing the branch circuit that is conventionally installed separately and forming the branch unit 120 integrally, it is possible to reduce the production cost and workability, to increase the space utilization in the narrow engine room, layout of the connection hose Can be simplified.

In addition, when transmission oil is included among the working fluids that are subject to heat exchange, it is possible to simultaneously perform a warm-up function for reducing friction during cold start and a cooling function for preventing slippage and durability while driving, thereby improving fuel economy and transmission durability. have.

In addition, the transmission oil and engine oil can be warmed up or cooled by water cooling using cooling water as a cooling medium, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency compared to an air-cooled heat exchanger, thereby improving overall cooling performance and heating performance of the vehicle cooling system.

On the other hand, in the description of the vehicle heat exchanger 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, each working fluid is described as an embodiment consisting of a coolant and a transmission oil, but is not limited to this, cooling or by heat exchange It can be applied to all working fluids requiring temperature rise.
