A refrigerant evaporator includes: a first heat exchange part in which refrigerant flows to exchange heat with fluid to be cooled; a second heat exchange part arranged to oppose the first heat exchange part; a first tank arranged below the first heat exchange part to distribute the refrigerant to the first heat exchange part; a second tank arranged below the second heat exchange part to collect the refrigerant flowing through the second heat exchange part; and a third tank joined to the first tank and the second tank by brazing. A projection part is formed at one of joint portions between the first tank and the third tank. An insertion part is formed at the other of the joint portions between the first tank and the third tank, and the projection part is inserted in the insertion part.

A radiator includes a seat having top and bottom surfaces opposite to each other in a height direction of the radiator. A fin heat sink is welded to the top surface of the seat. The fin heat sink is an integral stamped part formed by stamping a single sheet of material plate.

The present invention relates to a method for braze-welding a fixing plate and a flow channel cap in a heat exchanger, and to a heat exchanger produced by same. The method includes: providing a fixing plate 10 having a plurality of resilient protrusions 11 for snap-fitting; providing a flow channel cap 20, one end 22 of which is L-shaped to be snap-fitted onto the resilient protrusion 11 and the other end of which has a stepped portion 21; inserting the stepped portion 21 of the flow channel cap 20 into the resilient protrusion 11 such that an end 21b of the stepped portion 21 contacts an end of the resilient protrusion 11; pressing the L-shaped end 22 of the flow channel cap 20 against the resilient protrusion 11 of the fixing plate 10 such that the L-shaped end 22 is snap-fitted onto the resilient protrusion 11 and thus tightly contacts the fixing plate 10, and the resilient protrusion 11 thus press-contacts the end 21b of the stepped portion 21 to enable an end 21a of the stepped portion 21 to tightly contact the fixing plate 10; and braze-welding the fixing plate 10 and the flow channel cap 20. The above-described method eliminates a spot-welding process which might otherwise be performed prior to the process of braze-welding the fixing plate and the flow channel cap in conventional heat exchangers, to thereby reduce manufacturing costs and labor and to improve productivity.

The invention relates to a tube register (RR) for a heat exchanger (WT), in particular a heating element or cooling element, through which a heat transfer fluid may flow, and which has two distributor lines (1, 2), between which a plurality of connecting tubes (3) extend which fluidically connect the first distributor line, also referred to as the supply distributor (1), to the second distributor line, also referred to as the return distributor (2), the tube register having a linear supply distributor (1) and a linear return distributor (2) running in parallel thereto, between which a plurality of connecting tubes (3), situated in a plane, extend, the first ends (3a) of the connecting tubes (3) in each case being fluidically connected to the supply distributor (1), and the second ends (3b) of the connecting tubes (3) in each case being fluidically connected to the return distributor (2), characterized in that the connecting sites (P1) between the supply distributor (1) and the connecting tubes (3) are situated eccentrically, relative to the center axis (M1) of the supply distributor (1), on the supply distributor (1), and the connecting sites (P2) between the return distributor (2) and the connecting tubes (3) are situated eccentrically, relative to the center axis (M2) of the return distributor (2), on the return distributor (2).

A heat exchanger includes a main body portion and a cover. The main body portion includes a heat exchange core, a collecting pipe portion and a first mounting shell. The collecting pipe portion includes a first collecting pipe portion and a second collecting pipe portion. Both the first collecting pipe portion and the second collecting pipe portion are provided with mounting end plates. Two ends of the first mounting shell are hermetically connected to the mounting end plates by brazing. The first mounting shell encloses part of the heat exchange core in a circumferential direction. Two ends of the cover are hermetically connected to the mounting end plates by bonding. The cover and the first mounting shell are arranged in an enclosing manner in the circumferential direction. The heat exchanger improves stability and reliability. A manufacture method of the heat exchanger is also disclosed.

A thermal module assembling structure includes an aluminum base seat which has a heat absorption side, a heat conduction side and a connection section. The connection section is selectively disposed on the heat absorption side, the heat conduction side or embedded in the aluminum base seat (between the heat absorption side and the heat conduction side). The connection section is correspondingly connected with at least one copper heat pipe. A copper embedding layer is disposed on a portion of the connection section, which portion is in contact and connection with the copper heat pipe. A welding material layer is disposed between the copper embedding layer and the copper heat pipe, whereby the aluminum base seat and the copper heat pipe can be more securely connected with each other. The conventional chemical nickel plating is replaced with the copper embedding layer so as to improve the problem of environmental pollution, etc.
