連繋孔部3bは、円孔部3aの直径より幅が狭く、かつ、中央部で最も幅が狭くなるように輪郭線を湾曲させて形成されている。 Thecircular hole portion 3 a is formed in a circular shape having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the straight pipe portion 2 </ b> A of the refrigerant tube 2.
The connectinghole portion 3b is formed by curving the contour line so that the width is narrower than the diameter of the circular hole portion 3a and the width is narrowest at the center portion.

The connecting
両端の円孔部3aの外側周縁部には、周方向に沿って放射状に複数のスリット3cが形成されている。これら複数のスリット3cの最深部を結ぶ円の直径は、円孔部3aを貫通する冷媒チューブ2部分(直管部2A)の直径より少し大きく形成されている。
A plurality of slits 3c are formed radially along the circumferential direction at the outer peripheral edge of the circular hole 3a at both ends. The diameter of the circle connecting the deepest portions of the plurality of slits 3c is formed to be slightly larger than the diameter of the refrigerant tube 2 portion (straight tube portion 2A) penetrating the circular hole portion 3a.
次に、上記熱交換器1の製造方法について説明する。
冷媒チューブ2は、ストレートなパイプを縦横に複数列をなすように蛇行状に曲げ加工して形成される。また、図6に示すように、曲管部2Bは、熱交換器1の組立前において、後述するように、長孔3Aの連繋孔部2cを貫通しやすくするため、該連繋孔部2cの長手方向と平行に若干偏平に加工されて幅が狭く形成される。 Next, a method for manufacturing theheat exchanger 1 will be described.
Therefrigerant tube 2 is formed by bending a straight pipe in a meandering manner so as to form a plurality of rows vertically and horizontally. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, before the heat exchanger 1 is assembled, the curved pipe portion 2B is formed in the connecting hole portion 2c so as to easily penetrate the connecting hole portion 2c of the long hole 3A, as will be described later. It is processed to be slightly flat parallel to the longitudinal direction to form a narrow width.
冷媒チューブ2は、ストレートなパイプを縦横に複数列をなすように蛇行状に曲げ加工して形成される。また、図6に示すように、曲管部2Bは、熱交換器1の組立前において、後述するように、長孔3Aの連繋孔部2cを貫通しやすくするため、該連繋孔部2cの長手方向と平行に若干偏平に加工されて幅が狭く形成される。 Next, a method for manufacturing the
The
複数枚のプレートフィン3を、治具を挟んで相互に所定の間隔をあけて設置し、該設置された複数枚のプレートフィン3に対し、上記蛇行状の冷媒チューブ2を、その曲管部2Bからプレートフィン3の長孔3Aに挿入する。
A plurality of plate fins 3 are installed at predetermined intervals with a jig interposed therebetween, and the meandering refrigerant tube 2 is connected to the curved pipe portion of the plurality of plate fins 3 installed. 2B is inserted into the slot 3A of the plate fin 3.
ここで、まず、曲管部2Bの先端部が長孔3Aの連繋孔部3bを貫通する。この際、曲管部2Bは、連繋孔部3bを外側に押し拡げて変形させるが、上記のように曲管部2Bは連繋孔部3bの長手方向と平行に偏平な幅狭に加工されているので、変形量を少なくすることができる。
Here, first, the distal end portion of the bent tube portion 2B passes through the connecting hole portion 3b of the long hole 3A. At this time, the curved pipe portion 2B is deformed by expanding the connecting hole portion 3b outward, and as described above, the curved pipe portion 2B is processed to be flat and narrow in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the connecting hole portion 3b. Therefore, the amount of deformation can be reduced.
これにより、曲管部2Bの連繋孔部3b貫通時に、連繋孔部3b変形による抵抗を小さくしつつ、連繋孔部3bの開口面積をできるだけ小さくしてプレートフィン3の表面積を大きくすることができ、熱交換効率を向上できる。
As a result, the surface area of the plate fin 3 can be increased by reducing the opening area of the connecting hole portion 3b as much as possible while reducing the resistance caused by deformation of the connecting hole portion 3b when the bent tube portion 2B passes through the connecting hole portion 3b. , Heat exchange efficiency can be improved.
また、特許文献1の図8のように、連繋孔部を両端の円孔より幅狭の矩形状とした場合は、曲管部の連繋孔部貫通時に、連繋孔部の両側縁部が細長い矩形状に起こされ、それらの両端部に形成される角部によって、プレートフィン間を流通する空気流が乱流を生じやすくなる。これにより、プレートフィンの放熱性能(凝縮器の場合)または吸熱性能(蒸発器の場合)が変動しやすく、安定した熱交換性能が得られにくい。
In addition, as shown in FIG. 8 of Patent Document 1, when the connecting hole portion has a rectangular shape narrower than the circular holes at both ends, both side edges of the connecting hole portion are elongated when the bent tube portion is penetrated. The airflow that flows between the plate fins is likely to generate turbulence due to the corner portions that are raised in a rectangular shape and formed at both ends thereof. Thereby, the heat dissipation performance (in the case of a condenser) or the heat absorption performance (in the case of an evaporator) of the plate fin is likely to fluctuate, and it is difficult to obtain a stable heat exchange performance.
これに対し、本実施形態では、連繋孔部3bが中央部で凸の円弧状の輪郭を有しているため、曲管部の連繋孔部貫通時に該円弧状の凸部が起こされ、角部を有しない。このため、プレートフィン間を流通する空気流に乱流が生じにくくなり、プレートフィンの放熱性能または吸熱性能を一定に保つことができ、安定した熱交換性能を確保できる。
On the other hand, in this embodiment, since the connecting hole 3b has a convex arcuate contour at the center, the arcuate convex is raised when the bent pipe penetrates the connecting hole, Does not have a part. For this reason, it becomes difficult to produce a turbulent flow in the airflow flowing between the plate fins, the heat dissipation performance or heat absorption performance of the plate fins can be kept constant, and stable heat exchange performance can be secured.
なお、連繋孔部の形状を、曲管部2Bの偏平な幅と同一、若しくはやや大きい幅を有する矩形状として、曲管部2B貫通時の摩擦抵抗を無くすか、できるだけ小さくすることもできる。
It should be noted that the shape of the connecting hole portion may be a rectangular shape having a width that is the same as or slightly larger than the flat width of the curved pipe portion 2B, so that the frictional resistance when penetrating the curved pipe portion 2B can be eliminated or made as small as possible.
曲管部2Bの両端部から直管部2Aに移行する部分が長孔3Aの円孔部3aを貫通する際には、直管部2Aの直径は、円孔部3aの直径より大きく、また、多数のスリット3cの最深部相互を結ぶ円の直径より小さく形成されているので、図8(A)~(C)及び図9に示すように、プレートフィン3のスリット3c間の各帯状部3dが冷媒チューブ2の挿入先側に押し曲げられつつ、冷媒チューブ2の外壁面に圧接して固定される。
When the portion that transitions from both ends of the curved pipe part 2B to the straight pipe part 2A passes through the circular hole part 3a of the long hole 3A, the diameter of the straight pipe part 2A is larger than the diameter of the circular hole part 3a. Since the diameters of the circles connecting the deepest portions of the plurality of slits 3c are smaller than each other, the strips between the slits 3c of the plate fin 3 are formed as shown in FIGS. 8 (A) to (C) and FIG. 3 d is pressed and fixed to the outer wall surface of the refrigerant tube 2 while being bent toward the insertion destination side of the refrigerant tube 2.
このようにして、蛇行状の冷媒チューブ2を、全てのプレートフィン3の長孔3Aを貫通させて、曲管部2Bが両端のプレートフィン3から突出させた状態で取り付ける。
次いで、両端のプレートフィン3の外側に、それぞれ端板4,5を、これらに形成された長孔4a,5a及び円孔4bに冷媒チューブ2を貫通させて、取り付ける。なお、両側の端板4,5とプレートフィン3との間に、治具を挟んで、所定の間隔を設けてよいが、端板4,5とプレートフィン3とを接合して取り付けてもよい。 In this manner, the meanderingrefrigerant tube 2 is attached in a state in which the long holes 3A of all the plate fins 3 are penetrated and the curved pipe portions 2B protrude from the plate fins 3 at both ends.
Next, end plates 4 and 5 are attached to the outer sides of the plate fins 3 at both ends, respectively, through the refrigerant tubes 2 through the long holes 4a and 5a and the circular holes 4b formed therein. It should be noted that a predetermined gap may be provided between the end plates 4 and 5 and the plate fins 3 on both sides with a jig interposed therebetween, but the end plates 4 and 5 and the plate fins 3 may be joined and attached. Good.
次いで、両端のプレートフィン3の外側に、それぞれ端板4,5を、これらに形成された長孔4a,5a及び円孔4bに冷媒チューブ2を貫通させて、取り付ける。なお、両側の端板4,5とプレートフィン3との間に、治具を挟んで、所定の間隔を設けてよいが、端板4,5とプレートフィン3とを接合して取り付けてもよい。 In this manner, the meandering
Next,
また、一方の端板4に形成された一対の円孔4bには、蛇行状の冷媒チューブ2の両端部が貫通する。
次いで、上記プレートフィン3への取付後の冷媒チューブ2内に、高圧に加圧された水または油等の液体を注入する。これにより、液圧によって冷媒チューブ2が拡開され、プレートフィン3の各帯状部3dが、より大きく変形して冷媒チューブ2の外壁面との接触面積を増大させつつ、より強い力で圧接する。 Further, both ends of the meanderingrefrigerant tube 2 pass through a pair of circular holes 4 b formed in one end plate 4.
Next, a liquid such as water or oil pressurized to a high pressure is injected into therefrigerant tube 2 after being attached to the plate fin 3. As a result, the refrigerant tube 2 is expanded by the hydraulic pressure, and each band-like portion 3d of the plate fin 3 is further deformed to increase the contact area with the outer wall surface of the refrigerant tube 2 and press with a stronger force. .

これにより、冷媒チューブ2-プレートフィン3間の熱伝達率が高められる。
また、曲管部2Bの偏平に加工された部分が、液圧によって、元の円形断面、またはこれに近い形状に戻され、冷媒の流通抵抗を良好に維持できる。 Thereby, the heat transfer coefficient between therefrigerant tube 2 and the plate fin 3 is increased.
Moreover, the part processed into the flat part of thecurved pipe part 2B is returned to the original circular cross section or the shape close | similar to this by hydraulic pressure, and can maintain the distribution | circulation resistance of a refrigerant | coolant favorably.

さらに、前記液圧による冷媒チューブ2の拡開により、冷媒チューブ2が端板4,5の長孔4a,5a及び円孔4bに、より強く圧接して強固に取り付けられる。
最後に、プレートフィン相互間、プレートフィンと端板間との間隔設定用の治具を取り除き、熱交換器1の製造を完了する。 Further, therefrigerant tube 2 is expanded by the hydraulic pressure, so that the refrigerant tube 2 is firmly attached to the long holes 4a and 5a and the circular holes 4b of the end plates 4 and 5 by being more strongly pressed.
Finally, the jig for setting the gap between the plate fins and between the plate fins and the end plates is removed, and the manufacture of theheat exchanger 1 is completed.

Finally, the jig for setting the gap between the plate fins and between the plate fins and the end plates is removed, and the manufacture of the
かかる構成とすれば、プレートフィン3の長孔3A外周縁部に形成されて屈曲される帯状部3dが、冷媒チューブ2外壁に圧接して密着するので、冷媒チューブ2-プレートフィン3間の熱伝達率が高められ、熱交換効率、ひいては、本熱交換器を用いた冷凍サイクルの熱効率を良好に維持できる。
With such a configuration, the belt-like portion 3d formed and bent at the outer peripheral edge of the long hole 3A of the plate fin 3 is brought into pressure contact with the outer wall of the refrigerant tube 2, so that the heat between the refrigerant tube 2 and the plate fin 3 is The transfer rate is increased, and the heat exchange efficiency, and thus the heat efficiency of the refrigeration cycle using this heat exchanger can be maintained well.
また、プレートフィンの長孔周縁部に冷媒チューブ外壁と接触させるためのバーリング加工を施すことが不要となり、バーリング加工用の高価な型が不要となる。
また、バーリング加工したときには、硬くなったバーリング部を貫通する際の変形による歩留まりの低下を生じるが、本実施形態では、冷媒チューブの長孔への挿入時に、スリットにより形成される帯状部が容易に変形するため、高い歩留まりを維持できる。 Further, it is not necessary to perform burring processing for bringing the peripheral edge portion of the plate fin into contact with the outer wall of the refrigerant tube, and an expensive die for burring processing is not necessary.
In addition, when burring is performed, the yield decreases due to deformation when penetrating the hardened burring portion, but in this embodiment, when the refrigerant tube is inserted into the long hole, the band-shaped portion formed by the slit is easy. Therefore, a high yield can be maintained.
