Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a plate heat exchanger comprising a plate package of permanently joined heat transfer plates, between which passages for at least two heat exchange fluids are formed. Each heat transfer plate is provided with port holes, which together with corresponding port holes in the other heat transfer plates form port channels through the plate package.
  • the plate heat exchanger further comprises at least one connection member adapted for connection with a conduit through which one of said heat exchange fluids is intended to flow to or from the plate heat exchanger.
  • the connection member by means of a permanent joint, is connected with an outer heat transfer plate in the plate package or with an end plate permanently joined therewith.
  • the connection member has a through hole and is herein provided with internal threads. The hole communicates with one of said port channels through the plate package.
  • the heat transfer plates in a plate heat exchanger of this kind are usually permanently joined with each other through welding or brazing.
  • the heat exchanger mostly is provided with two end plates, which are thicker than the heat transfer plates and are brazed together with the two respective outer heat transfer plates in the plate package.
  • one of the end plates is provided with holes opposite to the port channels through the plate package, but also the other end plate can be provided with one or more holes opposite to the port channels.
  • connection members usually in the form of pipe sockets, are fastened by brazing around the respective holes of these plates.
  • Each one of the end plates does not have to be made in one piece but can be made of two or more parts.
  • the passages for heat exchange fluids between the heat transfer plates are normally connected to the port channels in a way such that every second passage will be flowed through by one of the heat exchange fluids and, accordingly, is included in a first set of passages.
  • the remaining passages form a second set of passages, which will be flowed through by the other heat exchange fluid.
  • the first heat exchange fluid flows through a first pipe socket into a first port channel, further through the first set of passages to a second port channel and out through a second pipe socket.
  • the second heat exchange fluid flows through a third pipe socket into a third port channel, further through the second set of passages to a fourth port channel and out through a fourth pipe socket.
  • Plate heat exchangers of this kind are used in many areas.
  • One such area is cooling of hydraulic oil.
  • a plate heat exchanger normally is coupled to the low pressure side.
  • the conduits for hydraulic oil on the low pressure side of a hydraulic system have a comparatively large diameter for obtainment of pressure losses as small as possible.
  • special connecting devices are used for connecting the conduits to various components included in the hydraulic system. These connecting devices are often provided with external threads.

  • a connection block of this kind has a considerably larger surface in contact with the outer heat transfer plate or end plate than a pipe socket and, thus, the joint in question can be formed so that it covers a considerably larger area than before. 4
  • the joint definitely can take up the torsional moment arising when a connecting device is screwed into the plate heat exchanger.
  • connection block it is possible to have holes with a larger diameter than was possible earlier, when the material thickness of two adjacent pipe sockets was a limiting factor for the hole diameter.
  • connection block is provided with internal threads in the said further through hole.
  • each of the heat transfer plates has a width which is less than its length and a thickness which is within the interval 0.05-1.5 mm, said connection block having an extension across essentially the hole width of the heat transfer plates but only across part of the length of the heat transfer plates, in addition to which the connection block has a thickness considerably larger than that of a heat transfer plate.
  • the connection block has to cover only a part of the outer heat transfer plate or end plate in the area for a pair of port channels. This means saving of material in comparison with an arrangement in which the connection block would cover all of the outer heat transfer plate or the end plate.

In such a case some of the connection blocks may be provided with only one through hole.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un échangeur thermique à plateaux assemblés en permanence et dotés de trous. L'échangeur thermique à plateaux comprend au moins un élément de raccordement sous la forme d'un bloc raccord (17, 18) destiné à relier l'échangeur thermique à un conduit d'entrée ou de sortie. Le bloc raccord doté au moins de deux trous traversants, est relié à l'aide d'un raccord permanent à un plateau de transfert de chaleur externe du groupement de plateaux ou à un plateau terminal assemblé en permanence à ce groupement. Au moins un des trous du bloc raccord est doté de filetages internes. Le raccord permanent est formé de telle façon qu'il s'étend autour au moins de deux des trous traversants (19, 20, 21, 22) pour former une connexion entre le bloc raccord (17, 18) et le plateau de transfert de chaleur extérieur ou le plateau terminal, de façon résistante à la contrainte de torsion. Les dispositifs de connexion pourvus de filetages externes peuvent ainsi être vissés à l'échangeur thermique à plateaux sans rupture du raccord permanent.
