tion, it is aimed to provide an improved,
radiator construction whereby the radiating surfaces thereof are greatly increased in proportion to the mass of cooling medium employed, thereby reducing the radiator size t0 a minimum and obtaining maximum radiating efliciency thereby.
The present invention further ,contemplates a radiator having an improved ar-V rangement for obtaining an extensive heat dissipating surface area. Y
The invention stillfurther contemplates the provision of a radiator formed out of sheet metal sections having an improved arrangement of the sections, whereby to ob tain an extensive heat dissipating surface area and facilitate the effective circulation of the heat absorbing medium without increasing the size of the radiator itself.
With certain types of automobile radiators having .merely lateral passages for the heat absorbing medium, pressure of the heat absorbing medium was frequently developed Vwith its consequent detrimental effect on the radiator. The present invention aims to provide an improved arrangement whereby these detrimental pressures may be effectively avoided. To this end, the invention specifically contemplates an improved radiator construction having lateral passages and vertical passages communicating with such lateral passages.
These and other features,` capabilities and advantages 'of the invention will appearV from the subjoined detail description of certain specificV embodiments thereof illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which,
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a plurality of sections of the radiator.
Figure 2 is an end elevation of Fig. 1

Fig. .6 is a fragmental perspective view showing the corrugations or raised portions of a sheet comprised in a sectionV of the radiator. l
My present invention Vcomprises radiatork sections 7 each composed of complemental sheets 8 and 9 of suitable metal or ymaterial provided with corrugations or. raised-.portionslO pressed or otherwise formed *therei in. Each of the corrugations 10 is oblong and has sloping sides 11 converging upwardly towards each other, the sides .11 terminating when near the point of convergence in heads or ends 12 connected by a depressed longitudinal portion 13 of the corrugation, the corrugations being ofl trap` formed, which indented or depressed spaces of a sheet 8 in conjunction with the similar spaces of an adjacent sheet 9 form an angular or Zig-zag channel hereinafter mentioned. Each of the sheets 10 is provided on the sides of the sheet adjacent to the ends of the corrugations, 10 with edges,VV 14 eXtendinOr laterally beyond the vertical line of theends of the corrugations, the pur# pose of edges 14 being hereinafter stated.
A radiator case, such as generally denoted by C, Figs. 4 and 5, is provided for receiving therein a plurality of sections 7 when in adjoining relation, such case having the customary'filler 15, vand having the upper and lower chambers 16 and 17.V
7, the corrugations 10V of the plate 8 being staggered in relationto the plate 9, as lshown by 10a, 10b, Fig. 2. -T-he edges 14 ofA thek sheets being in contact are Vfolded or crimped together orv otherwise suitably secured together as' at 14a, to fasten the plates together and t0 provide-a water tight con- The sheets 8 and 9 thus form a section 7 ,lopen at top and bottom but closed at the sides, the adjacent inner spaces of the adjacent corrugations 10 forming an angular or zigzag channel, indicated by the arrows, Fig. 2, extending from the top to the bottom oi the section, and open at top and bottom, and each section having two-faced heads or nodules formed by the end-surfaces or endfaces 12 of the complemental sheets placed in back-to-back relation as shown in Fig. 3, with depressed longitudinal portions 13 of the corrugations of each sheet between the heads or nodules on either side of the sheets. The sections 7 are then arranged in adjoining relation to each other so that the faces 12 of one section contact or engage with the 'faces 12 of an adjacent section, thereby forming transverse air passages 18 Fig. 2 and vertical riser passages 19 Fig. 3 between adjacent sections, the passages 18 and 19 communicating with each other, as shown in Fig. 2, the riser passages 19 being formed by combined depressed longitudinal portions 13 of adjoining sections.
The sections 7 when in this adjoining relation are received in the case C, being let into or otherwise suitably secured to the case in a well known manner, as at 20-20 and 21-21, Fig.
I thus provide a radiator having channels formed by the interior spaces. ot corrugations ot metal plates which forni sections of the radiator, which channels are open at top and bottom and communicate with the chainbers of the radiator, the radiator further having passagesI which extend transversely through the radiator, and passages which extend vertically through the radiator and communicate with the transverse passages Jfor circulation of air or other cooling medium through the radiator, these transverse and vertical passages being 'formed by contacting or yengaging corrugations of adjoining sections composed of the above 1nentioned metal plates.
Obviously from the foregoing, it will be noted that owing to my construction a large area of a radiator surface is presented to incoming air, and due to the substantial compression thereof, due to the movement of a vehicle having such radiator thereon that the air will be caused to pass through to transverse air passages 18, in the usual manner, thereby abstracting heat from the conducting surfaces and that air will'be coin- Ypelled to mount upwardly into the vertical riser passages 19 which adjoin the passa-ges 18 and that these surfaces will also radiate heat to be carried off by the air passing therethrough.
i It is also obvious that this construction increases'thevradiating surfaces 'of my device, and such' increase is due to the surface ot the depressed longitudinal portions 18, which forni the vertical riser passages 19. It is obvious that this surface may be further developed so as to present a larger proportion oi the arear of the radiator, and that this in turn wili constitute, in a single radiator, a very greatly increased percentage of radiating surface, thereby making far greater eiiciency in the cooling of such radiator.
1t is obvious that various changes and modifications may be made in the details of construction vithout departing from the spirit or the invention, or exceeding the scope or the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim:
1. ln a radiator, a plurality of radiator sections, each section comprising two metal sheets, each sheet having formed thereon a series of corrugations of trapezoidal prismatic. forni having heads formed by depressed portions ot' the corrugations.
