Abstract
Description
流体が流通する複数のチューブが上下に積層されたコア部と、
チューブの長手方向の端部に配置され、チューブの積層方向に沿って延びると共に複数のチューブに連通するヘッダタンクと、を備える。
チューブの長手方向の端部が複数のチューブ挿入穴に挿入された状態で、複数のチューブが接合されたコアプレートと、
コアプレートに固定され、コアプレートと共に複数のチューブに連通するタンク内部空間を形成するタンク本体部と、
タンク本体部とコアプレートとで狭持されてタンク内部空間からの流体の漏れを抑えるシール部材と、を有している。
複数のチューブ挿入穴が形成されたチューブ接合部と、
チューブ接合部の外側を囲むと共に、タンク本体部の先端部、およびシール部材を収容する環状の収容溝部と、を有している。
収容溝部は、タンク本体部の先端部と共にシール部材を狭持する底壁部と、底壁部の外周側に立設された外側壁部と、を有している。
本開示の一実施形態について図1~図8を参照して説明する。本実施形態では、本開示に係る熱交換器を、車両に搭載されて車室外空気(すなわち、外気)との熱交換により冷却対象である流体(例えば、冷却水)を冷却する放熱器に適用している。具体的には、本実施形態では、本開示に係る熱交換器を、車両前方側の空間に配置されて、図示しない水冷式の内燃機関の冷却水を外気と熱交換して冷却するラジエータ1に適用している。
ここで、上述の実施形態では、外側壁部212bにおける辺Sp4または角部Cp3、Cp4に対応する部位に第1~第3排出部215a~215cを設ける構成について説明したが、これに限定されず、以下の如く変更してもよい。
図9は、上述の実施形態における図4に対応する図面である。すなわち、図9は、変形例1に係るラジエータ1のコアプレート21単体の下面図である。
図10は、上述の実施形態における図4に対応する図面である。すなわち、図10は、変形例2に係るラジエータ1のコアプレート21単体の下面図である。
以上、本開示の実施形態について説明したが、本開示は上述の実施形態に限定されるものではなく、適宜変更が可能である。本開示の熱交換器は、例えば、以下のように種々変形可能である。
