In other words, the flat tube 412 is joined to the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 at a certain distance from the first base portion 441 and the second base portion 451.

Description
本発明は、熱交換器に関する。
The present invention relates to a heat exchanger.
第1ヘッダ集合管、第2ヘッダ集合管、扁平管、およびフィンが互いにロウ付けにより接合されてなる熱交換器が知られている(特許文献1(特開2015-31491号公報)参照)。
A heat exchanger in which a first header collecting tube, a second header collecting tube, a flat tube, and fins are joined to each other by brazing is known (see Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2015-31491)).
扁平管がフィンに圧入される場合に、扁平管とフィンの間の摩擦力によって、扁平管がフィンに挿入され難い場合がある。この場合に、扁平管が強引にフィンに圧入されると、扁平管およびフィンが破損する恐れがある。
When the flat tube is press-fitted into the fin, the flat tube may be difficult to insert into the fin due to the frictional force between the flat tube and the fin. In this case, if the flat tube is forcibly pressed into the fin, the flat tube and the fin may be damaged.
本発明の課題は、扁平管とフィンの取り付け易さを向上させた熱交換器を提供することである。
An object of the present invention is to provide a heat exchanger that improves the ease of attaching a flat tube and fins.
本発明の第1観点に係る熱交換器は、積層された複数のフィンと、複数の扁平管とを備える。複数の扁平管は、複数のフィンの積層方向に対して交差する交差方向に並んで配置されている。複数のフィンのそれぞれは、複数の挿入部を有する。複数の挿入部には、複数の扁平管のそれぞれが挿入されている。複数のフィンのうち少なくとも1つのフィンは、折曲部を有する。折曲部は、複数の挿入部のうち少なくとも1つの挿入部の縁部に設けられている。折曲部は、第1折曲部と第2折曲部を含む。第1折曲部は、縁部の一部が折り曲げられてなる。第2折曲部は、縁部の、一部とは異なる他部が折り曲げられてなる。積層方向と交差方向とを含む平面に直交する直交方向から見た場合に、第1近接部と第1折曲部の第1基部との積層方向の距離、および、第2近接部と第2折曲部の第2基部との積層方向の距離はそれぞれ、扁平管の交差方向の距離の0.2倍から0.9倍である。第1近接部は、第1折曲部のうち第2折曲部に最も近接する。第2近接部は、第2折曲部のうち第1折曲部に最も近接する。少なくとも1つの挿入部に挿入された扁平管は、第1近接部と第2近接部に密着し、第1基部と第2基部に接しない。
The heat exchanger according to the first aspect of the present invention includes a plurality of laminated fins and a plurality of flat tubes. The plurality of flat tubes are arranged side by side in a crossing direction that intersects the stacking direction of the plurality of fins. Each of the plurality of fins has a plurality of insertion portions. Each of the plurality of flat tubes is inserted into the plurality of insertion portions. At least one fin among the plurality of fins has a bent portion. The bent portion is provided at an edge of at least one insertion portion among the plurality of insertion portions. The bent portion includes a first bent portion and a second bent portion. The first bent portion is formed by bending a part of the edge portion. The second bent portion is formed by bending another portion of the edge that is different from a portion. The distance in the stacking direction between the first proximity portion and the first base of the first bent portion, and the second proximity portion and the second when viewed from an orthogonal direction orthogonal to the plane including the stacking direction and the crossing direction. The distance in the stacking direction between the bent portion and the second base is 0.2 to 0.9 times the distance in the intersecting direction of the flat tubes. The first proximity portion is closest to the second bent portion among the first bent portions. The second proximity portion is closest to the first bent portion among the second bent portions. The flat tube inserted into at least one insertion portion is in close contact with the first proximity portion and the second proximity portion, and does not contact the first base portion and the second base portion.
本発明の第1観点に係る熱交換器では、第1近接部と第1基部の積層方向の距離、および第2近接部と第2基部の積層方向の距離はそれぞれ、扁平管の交差方向の距離の0.2倍から0.9倍である。すなわち、第1近接部および第2近接部のそれぞれは、ある程度の高さを有する。折曲部が設けられた挿入部に挿入された扁平管は、上述のような第1近接部と第2近接部に密着する一方で、第1基部と第2基部に接しない。つまり、扁平管が挿入部に挿入される場合には、扁平管の挿入し易さは、接触しない第1基部と第2基部というよりも、第1近接部と第2近接部に影響される。第1近接部および第2近接部のそれぞれは、上述のように、折り曲げられた部分であり、かつ、ある程度の高さを有するので、扁平管の挿入時に、互いに交差方向に動く。これにより、扁平管と挿入部の間の摩擦力を低減させることができる。摩擦力が低減されるので、扁平管とフィンの取り付け易さを向上させることができる。その結果、扁平管およびフィンの破損を抑制することが期待できる。また、第1折曲部および第2折曲部が形成されたフィンは、第1折曲部および第2折曲部によって、隣接するフィンとの間隔であるフィンピッチを確保することができる。したがって、フィンピッチを確保する部分を別途設けなくてもよい。
In the heat exchanger according to the first aspect of the present invention, the distance in the stacking direction between the first proximity portion and the first base, and the distance in the stacking direction between the second proximity portion and the second base are respectively in the crossing direction of the flat tubes. The distance is 0.2 to 0.9 times. That is, each of the first proximity portion and the second proximity portion has a certain height. The flat tube inserted in the insertion portion provided with the bent portion is in close contact with the first proximity portion and the second proximity portion as described above, but does not contact the first base portion and the second base portion. That is, when the flat tube is inserted into the insertion portion, the ease of insertion of the flat tube is affected by the first proximity portion and the second proximity portion rather than the first base portion and the second base portion that do not contact each other. . As described above, each of the first proximity portion and the second proximity portion is a bent portion and has a certain height, and thus moves in the crossing direction when the flat tube is inserted. Thereby, the frictional force between a flat tube and an insertion part can be reduced. Since the frictional force is reduced, the ease of attaching the flat tube and the fins can be improved. As a result, it can be expected that damage to the flat tube and the fins is suppressed. Moreover, the fin in which the 1st bending part and the 2nd bending part were formed can ensure the fin pitch which is a space | interval with an adjacent fin by the 1st bending part and the 2nd bending part. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately provide a portion for securing the fin pitch.

本発明の第2観点に係る熱交換器では、第1折曲部および第2折曲部のそれぞれの、交差方向と直交方向を含む平面に対する折り曲げ角度は、80°から90°である。すなわち、第1折曲部および第2折曲部は、第1基部および第2基部から第1近接部および第2近接部にかけて、テーパ状に形成されている。したがって、第1折曲部および第2折曲部のそれぞれは、扁平管の挿入時に、互いに交差方向に動くことができる。結果として、扁平管と挿入部の間の摩擦力を低減させることができる。
In the heat exchanger according to the second aspect of the present invention, the bending angle of each of the first bent portion and the second bent portion with respect to the plane including the intersecting direction and the orthogonal direction is 80 ° to 90 °. That is, the first bent portion and the second bent portion are formed in a tapered shape from the first base portion and the second base portion to the first adjacent portion and the second adjacent portion. Therefore, each of the first bent portion and the second bent portion can move in the crossing direction when the flat tube is inserted. As a result, the frictional force between the flat tube and the insertion portion can be reduced.
本発明の第3観点に係る熱交換器においては、第1折曲部のうち扁平管に接しない部分の積層方向の長さは、0.4mmから1.2mmである。第2折曲部のうち扁平管に接しない部分の積層方向の長さは、0.4mmから1.2mmである。

以上のように、第1折曲部440が急峻になることにより、距離D1が距離D1´よりも長くなるのに対し、第1湾曲部443が折り曲がることにより、距離D6は距離D6´よりも短くなる。同様に、第2折曲部450が急峻になることにより、距離D2が距離D2´よりも長くなるのに対し、第2湾曲部453が折り曲がることにより、距離D7は距離D7´よりも短くなる。
As described above, when the first bent portion 440 becomes steep, the distance D 1 becomes longer than the distance D 1 ′, whereas the first curved portion 443 is bent, so that the distance D 6 becomes the distance. Shorter than D 6 ′. Similarly, since the second bent portion 450 is steep, the distance D to 2 that is longer than the distance D 2 ', since the second bending portion 453 is bent, the distance D 7 is distance D 7 It becomes shorter than ´.
結果として、距離D1と距離D6の和は、距離D1´と距離D6´の和に略等しくなる。同様に、距離D2と距離D7の和は、距離D2´と距離D7´の和に略等しくなる。距離D1と距離D6の和、および距離D2と距離D7の和は、隣接するフィンとフィンの間隔、すなわち、フィンピッチに相当する。
As a result, the sum of the distance D 1 and the distance D 6 is substantially equal to the sum of the distance D 1 'and the distance D 6'. Similarly, the sum of the distances D 2 and the distance D 7 is substantially equal to the sum of the distance D 2 'and the distance D 7'. The sum of the distance D 1 and the distance D 6 and the sum of the distance D 2 and the distance D 7 correspond to an interval between adjacent fins, that is, a fin pitch.
(3)室外熱交換器の特徴
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、距離D1および距離D2のそれぞれは、距離D3の0.2倍から0.9倍である。すなわち、第1近接部442および第2近接部452のそれぞれは、ある程度の高さを有する。折曲部460が設けられた切欠部421に挿入された扁平管412は、第1近接部442と第2近接部452に密着する一方で、第1基部441と第2基部451に接しない。つまり、扁平管412が切欠部421に挿入される場合に、扁平管412の挿入し易さは、接触しない第1基部441および第2基部451というよりも、接触する第1近接部442と第2近接部452に影響される。第1近接部442および第2近接部452のそれぞれは、上述のように、折り曲げられた部分であり、かつ、ある程度の高さを有するので、扁平管412の挿入時に、互いにY軸方向に動く。すなわち、第1近接部442および第2近接部452は、扁平管412が圧入されるときの、フィン411に対する圧力を低減する役割を担う。これにより、扁平管412と切欠部421の間の摩擦力を低減させることができる。摩擦力が低減されるので、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。その結果、扁平管412およびフィン411の破損を抑制することが期待できる。 (3) Features of outdoor heat exchanger In theoutdoor heat exchanger 400 of the present embodiment, each of the distance D 1 and the distance D 2 is 0.2 to 0.9 times the distance D 3 . That is, each of the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452 has a certain height. The flat tube 412 inserted into the notch 421 provided with the bent portion 460 is in close contact with the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452, but does not contact the first base portion 441 and the second base portion 451. That is, when the flat tube 412 is inserted into the notch portion 421, the flat tube 412 is more easily inserted than the first base portion 441 and the second base portion 451 that are not in contact with each other. 2 influenced by the proximity portion 452. Each of the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452 is a bent portion and has a certain height as described above, and therefore moves in the Y axis direction when the flat tube 412 is inserted. . That is, the 1st proximity part 442 and the 2nd proximity part 452 bear the role which reduces the pressure with respect to the fin 411 when the flat tube 412 is press-fit. Thereby, the frictional force between the flat tube 412 and the notch part 421 can be reduced. Since the frictional force is reduced, the ease of attaching the flat tube 412 and the fin 411 can be improved. As a result, it can be expected that damage to the flat tubes 412 and the fins 411 is suppressed.
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、距離D1および距離D2のそれぞれは、距離D3の0.2倍から0.9倍である。すなわち、第1近接部442および第2近接部452のそれぞれは、ある程度の高さを有する。折曲部460が設けられた切欠部421に挿入された扁平管412は、第1近接部442と第2近接部452に密着する一方で、第1基部441と第2基部451に接しない。つまり、扁平管412が切欠部421に挿入される場合に、扁平管412の挿入し易さは、接触しない第1基部441および第2基部451というよりも、接触する第1近接部442と第2近接部452に影響される。第1近接部442および第2近接部452のそれぞれは、上述のように、折り曲げられた部分であり、かつ、ある程度の高さを有するので、扁平管412の挿入時に、互いにY軸方向に動く。すなわち、第1近接部442および第2近接部452は、扁平管412が圧入されるときの、フィン411に対する圧力を低減する役割を担う。これにより、扁平管412と切欠部421の間の摩擦力を低減させることができる。摩擦力が低減されるので、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。その結果、扁平管412およびフィン411の破損を抑制することが期待できる。 (3) Features of outdoor heat exchanger In the
第1近接部442および第2近接部452のそれぞれがある程度の高さを有するので、第1近接部442および第2近接部452によって、フィンピッチを確保することができる。第1近接部442および第2近接部452がフィンピッチを確保する役割を兼ねるので、フィンピッチを確保する部分を別途設けなくてもよい。
Since each of the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452 has a certain height, the fin pitch can be secured by the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452. Since the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452 also serve to ensure the fin pitch, it is not necessary to separately provide a portion for ensuring the fin pitch.
距離D1と距離D6の和が距離D1´と距離D6´の和に略等しく、距離D2と距離D7の和は距離D2´と距離D7´の和に略等しい。したがって、扁平管412の挿入前後でフィンピッチを略一定に保つことができる。
Distance D 1 and the distance D substantially equal to the sum of the 6 to the sum of the distance D 1 'and the distance D 6', the sum of the distances D 2 and the distance D 7 is substantially equal to the sum of the distance D 2 'and the distance D 7'. Therefore, the fin pitch can be kept substantially constant before and after insertion of the flat tube 412.
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、第1折曲部440の、Y軸方向とZ軸方向を含む平面に対する折り曲げ角度θ1は、80°から90°であり、第2折曲部450の、Y軸方向とZ軸方向を含む平面に対する折り曲げ角度θ2は、80°から90°である。すなわち、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450は、第1基部441および第2基部451から第1近接部442および第2近接部452にかけて、テーパ状に形成されている。したがって、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のそれぞれは、扁平管412の挿入時に、互いにY軸方向に動くことができる。結果として、扁平管412と切欠部421の間の摩擦力を低減させることができる。
In the outdoor heat exchanger 400 of the present embodiment, the bending angle θ 1 of the first bent portion 440 with respect to the plane including the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction is 80 ° to 90 °, and the second bent portion A bending angle θ 2 of 450 with respect to a plane including the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction is 80 ° to 90 °. That is, the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 are formed in a tapered shape from the first base portion 441 and the second base portion 451 to the first proximity portion 442 and the second proximity portion 452. Therefore, each of the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 can move in the Y-axis direction with respect to each other when the flat tube 412 is inserted. As a result, the frictional force between the flat tube 412 and the notch 421 can be reduced.
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、距離D4は0.4mmから1.2mmであり、距離D5は0.4mmから1.2mmである。すなわち、扁平管412は、第1基部441の近傍および第2基部451の近傍に接しない。換言すると、扁平管412は、第1基部441および第2基部451から、ある程度離れた位置で、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450と接合されている。これにより、扁平管412が圧入されるときの、フィン411に対する圧力をより低減することができる。
In the outdoor heat exchanger 400 of the present embodiment, the distance D 4 is 0.4 mm to 1.2 mm, and the distance D 5 is 0.4 mm to 1.2 mm. That is, the flat tube 412 does not contact the vicinity of the first base portion 441 and the vicinity of the second base portion 451. In other words, the flat tube 412 is joined to the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 at a certain distance from the first base portion 441 and the second base portion 451. Thereby, the pressure with respect to the fin 411 when the flat tube 412 is press-fit can be reduced more.
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、第1折曲部440は第1湾曲部443を有し、第2折曲部450は第2湾曲部453を有する。第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450が形成されたフィン411は、第1湾曲部443および第2湾曲部453によって、フィンピッチをより確保し易くなる。
In the outdoor heat exchanger 400 of the present embodiment, the first bent portion 440 has a first bent portion 443 and the second bent portion 450 has a second bent portion 453. The fin 411 in which the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 are formed can more easily secure the fin pitch by the first bent portion 443 and the second bent portion 453.
本実施形態の室外熱交換器400においては、全てのフィン411が全ての切欠部421のそれぞれの縁部に設けられた折曲部460を有する。したがって、全てのフィン411のそれぞれにおいて、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。
In the outdoor heat exchanger 400 of this embodiment, all the fins 411 have the bent portions 460 provided at the respective edge portions of all the notches 421. Therefore, in each of all the fins 411, the ease of attachment of the flat tube 412 and the fin 411 can be improved.

本発明の実施形態に適用可能な変形例を説明する。 <Modification>
A modification applicable to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.
本発明の実施形態に適用可能な変形例を説明する。 <Modification>
A modification applicable to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.
(1)変形例A
以上の説明では、第1折曲部440と第2折曲部450が互いに対向していたが、対向していなくてもよい。 (1) Modification A
In the above description, the firstbent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 are opposed to each other, but may not be opposed.
以上の説明では、第1折曲部440と第2折曲部450が互いに対向していたが、対向していなくてもよい。 (1) Modification A
In the above description, the first
図6は、折曲部460の他の例を説明する図である。図6の断面領域は、図3の断面領域に対応している。すなわち、図6は、図2の領域AのYZ断面の一部を拡大した図に相当する。
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining another example of the bent portion 460. The cross-sectional area in FIG. 6 corresponds to the cross-sectional area in FIG. That is, FIG. 6 corresponds to an enlarged view of a part of the YZ cross section of the region A in FIG.
本変形例の第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のZ軸方向の幅は、図3の第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のZ軸方向の幅の略半分である。第1折曲部440は、切欠部421のZ軸方向マイナス側の端部側に形成され、第2折曲部450は、切欠部421のZ軸方向プラス側の端部側に形成されている。すなわち、第1折曲部440と第2折曲部450は、対向しておらず、互いにずれた位置に形成されている。第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のそれぞれが互いにZ軸方向にずれた領域に形成されるので、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のX軸方向の距離を確保し易くなる。扁平管412の幅が比較的細い場合に、本変形例の構成は、特に有効である。
The width in the Z-axis direction of the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 of this modification is substantially half of the width in the Z-axis direction of the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 in FIG. It is. The first bent portion 440 is formed on the end portion side of the notch portion 421 on the Z axis direction minus side, and the second bent portion 450 is formed on the end portion side of the notch portion 421 on the Z axis direction plus side. Yes. That is, the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 are not opposed to each other and are formed at positions shifted from each other. Since each of the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 is formed in a region shifted from each other in the Z-axis direction, the distance between the first bent portion 440 and the second bent portion 450 in the X-axis direction is set. It becomes easy to secure. The configuration of this modification is particularly effective when the width of the flat tube 412 is relatively thin.
また、第1折曲部440と第2折曲部450は個別に形成されていなくてもよい。すなわち、第1折曲部440と第2折曲部450が一体的に形成されてもよい。例えば、折曲部460は切欠部421の縁部に沿ってU字状に形成されてもよい。
Moreover, the 1st bending part 440 and the 2nd bending part 450 do not need to be formed separately. That is, the first bent part 440 and the second bent part 450 may be formed integrally. For example, the bent portion 460 may be formed in a U shape along the edge of the notch 421.
(2)変形例B
以上の説明では、全てのフィン411のそれぞれが、全ての切欠部421のそれぞれの縁部に設けられた折曲部460を有したが、すなわち、切欠部421の数と同数の折曲部460を有したが、いくつかのフィン411は、切欠部421の数よりも少ない数の折曲部460を有してもよいし、折曲部460を全く有さなくてもよい。すなわち、少なくとも1つのフィンが、切欠部421の数と同数の折曲部460を有してもよい。この場合には、折曲部460を有する全てのフィン411において、当該フィンの全ての、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のY軸方向の幅を広げることができる。以上のように、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。なお、切欠部421の数よりも少ない数の折曲部460を有するフィンにおいては、折曲部460が設けられた部分において、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。 (2) Modification B
In the above description, all thefins 411 have the bent portions 460 provided at the respective edges of all the cutout portions 421, that is, the same number of bent portions 460 as the number of the cutout portions 421. However, some of the fins 411 may have a smaller number of bent portions 460 than the number of the notched portions 421 or may not have the bent portions 460 at all. That is, at least one fin may have the same number of bent portions 460 as the number of notches 421. In this case, in all the fins 411 having the bent portions 460, the widths in the Y-axis direction of all the first bent portions 440 and the second bent portions 450 of the fins can be increased. As described above, the ease of attaching the flat tube 412 and the fins 411 can be improved. In addition, in the fin which has the bending part 460 of the number smaller than the number of the notch parts 421, the attachment ease of the flat tube 412 and the fin 411 can be improved in the part in which the bending part 460 was provided.
以上の説明では、全てのフィン411のそれぞれが、全ての切欠部421のそれぞれの縁部に設けられた折曲部460を有したが、すなわち、切欠部421の数と同数の折曲部460を有したが、いくつかのフィン411は、切欠部421の数よりも少ない数の折曲部460を有してもよいし、折曲部460を全く有さなくてもよい。すなわち、少なくとも1つのフィンが、切欠部421の数と同数の折曲部460を有してもよい。この場合には、折曲部460を有する全てのフィン411において、当該フィンの全ての、第1折曲部440および第2折曲部450のY軸方向の幅を広げることができる。以上のように、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。なお、切欠部421の数よりも少ない数の折曲部460を有するフィンにおいては、折曲部460が設けられた部分において、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。 (2) Modification B
In the above description, all the
切欠部421の数と同数の折曲部460を有するフィン411が存在しなくてもよい。すなわち、少なくとも1つのフィン411が、少なくとも1つの折曲部460を有してもよい。この場合には、少なくとも1つのフィン411の、折曲部460が設けられた部分において、扁平管412とフィン411の取り付け易さを向上させることができる。
The fins 411 having the same number of bent portions 460 as the number of the notches 421 may not be present. That is, at least one fin 411 may have at least one bent portion 460. In this case, it is possible to improve the ease of attaching the flat tube 412 and the fin 411 in the portion of the at least one fin 411 where the bent portion 460 is provided.
(3)変形例C
以上の説明では、挿入部として切欠部421を例に挙げたが、これに限られない。挿入部として、扁平管412の形状に合わせた開口部が形成されてもよい。 (3) Modification C
