Heat exchanger including coil end close-off cover
10563930 · 2020-02-18 · ·

A heat exchanger assembly including a heat exchanger that has a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and a cover coupled to the second end. The heat exchanger also includes a plurality of fins with a first fin disposed adjacent the first end and a second fin disposed adjacent the second end, and a continuous, serpentine coil. The coil includes first return bends projecting beyond the first fin and second return bends projecting beyond the second fin. The cover has a base plate and separate receptacles encasing one or more of the second return bends to permit airflow through the encased second return bends. The base plate is positioned on the second end to inhibit airflow from one of the receptacles to another of the receptacles.

Multi port extrusion (MPE) connection to a header

A connection between one end of a Multi Port Extrusion (MPE) tube (1) of aluminium or an aluminium alloy and one header (2), the connection comprises an adapter (3) with a seal ring (4) fixed between the MPE tube and the header. The invention also relates to a method for connecting said parts.

FLUID INLET-OUTLET MANIFOLD
20190339028 · 2019-11-07 · ·

The manifold includes a column provided according to a longitudinal axis with a plurality of fluid outlet orifices spaced apart from each other. The column is removably mounted from a plurality of modular sections, each column section being provided with at least one female tubular axial fitting and/or with at least one male tubular axial fitting and featuring a radial opening delimiting the outlet orifice. Furthermore, a male tubular fitting is adapted to nest into and slide in a tight manner inside a female tubular fitting to enable a translational displacement of the sections relative to each other in directions of extension and retraction of the manifold in order to vary the spacing between two outlet orifices.
