Apparatus for inserting flattened tubes into heat exchanger fins
An apparatus for inserting flattened tubes into heat exchanger fins includes a guide inserted into at least one out of a plurality of cutaway portions for holding heat exchanger fins in the thickness direction. A guide holding unit holds the heat exchanger fins and the guide with a flattened tube holding unit in which flattened tubes are held in an intermittent arrangement with respect to the cutaway portions into which the guide has not been inserted. A flattened tube insertion driving unit inserts the flattened tubes held on the flattened tube holding unit into the cutaway portion with a platen that is caused to contact another edge in a width direction of the heat exchanger fins when the flattened tubes are inserted into the cutaway portions. Thereafter a compressing unit compresses the heat exchanger fins in the stacking direction.
Method and arrangement for repairing a plate pack of a heat exchanger
A method and arrangement for repairing a leaking point in a plate pack of a plate heat exchanger (1), in which a space between adjacent plate pairs of the plate pack (4), with which the leaking point is in connection, is closed by arranging a separate strip (9) or sealing tape (10) into the space between the plate pairs on the whole length of the outer perimeter of the plate pack.
EVAPORATOR FINS IN CONTACT WITH END BRACKET
A refrigerator is provided with an evaporator assembly located in a compartment. The evaporator assembly includes a pipe, a fan assembly, a plurality of fins, a first and second bracket. The pipe is configured to transport a refrigerant that exchanges heat with an air stream from the compartment. The plurality of fins is inserted on the pipe. The brackets each include apertures to receive bent end portions of the pipe. The brackets are configured to hold the pipe and the fins in a specific position, to mount the evaporator assembly within the compartment, and restrict the air stream exiting the evaporator assembly from mixing with the air stream entering the evaporator assembly. The fins include end fins that are placed in direct contact with the first end bracket and are configured to further restrict the air stream from flowing through the plurality of apertures of the brackets.
Fire Tube Installation and Removal Tool
A tool is provided for removal and installation of a fire tube that extends into an opening in a wall of a heating vessel. The fire tube locates within an interior of the heating vessel when mounted thereto. The fire tube has tube wall that defines an tube interior and has a mounting end for mounting the fire tube to the wall of the heating vessel. The tool has an elongated main shaft member having an insertion end and an opposite control end. A first support is mounted upon the insertion end that is configured for being closely received within the tube interior. A second support is mounted along the length main shaft member, the second support having a fire tube interface configured for engaging and releasably coupling to the mounting end of the fire tube. A lift coupling couples to the main shaft and locates between the second support and the control end of the main shaft member for coupling to a lift line. A counterbalance support carries removable weighting members, the counterbalance support being coupled to the main shaft by a counterbalance support spacing arm that extends laterally from the main shaft member.
Evaporator fins in contact with end bracket
A refrigerator is provided with an evaporator assembly located in a compartment. The evaporator assembly includes a pipe, a fan assembly, a plurality of fins, a first and second bracket. The pipe is configured to transport a refrigerant that exchanges heat with an air stream from the compartment. The plurality of fins is inserted on the pipe. The brackets each include apertures to receive bent end portions of the pipe. The brackets are configured to hold the pipe and the fins in a specific position, to mount the evaporator assembly within the compartment, and restrict the air stream exiting the evaporator assembly from mixing with the air stream entering the evaporator assembly. The fins include end fins that are placed in direct contact with the first end bracket and are configured to further restrict the air stream from flowing through the plurality of apertures of the brackets.

Overmolded dual in-line memory module cooling structure
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for forming an overmolded dual in-line memory module (DIMM) cooling structure are provided. Embodiments include identifying, by a tagging module, contextual information indicating circumstances in which the photograph was taken; based on the contextual information, selecting, by the tagging module, candidate profiles from a plurality of friend profiles associated with a profile of a user; and suggesting, by the tagging module to the user, the selected candidate profiles as potential friends to tag in the photograph.
APPARATUS FOR INSERTING FLATTENED TUBES INTO HEAT EXCHANGER FINS
An apparatus for inserting flattened tubes into heat exchanger fins that is capable of assembling a heat exchanger core efficiently and with a high yield. A guide is inserted into at least one out of a plurality of cutaway portions for holding heat exchanger fins in the thickness direction; a guide holding unit that holds the heat exchanger fins and the guide; a flattened tube holding unit in which flattened tubes T are held in an intermittent arrangement with respect to the cutaway portions into which the guide has not been inserted; a flattened tube insertion driving unit that inserts the flattened tubes held on the flattened tube holding unit into the cutaway portions; a platen that is caused to contact another edge in a width direction of the heat exchanger fins when the flattened tubes T are inserted into the cutaway portions; and a compressing unit that compresses the heat exchanger fins in the stacking direction.

Heat exchanger with bypass valve
A heat exchanger for cooling a liquid has an inlet and an outlet for a liquid to be cooled. A bypass is provided that bypasses the heat exchanger. A valve controls flow of liquid into the heat exchanger or into the bypass. The valve has a valve seat, a valve cone, and at least one spring made of a shape memory material. The at least one spring counteracts a liquid pressure existing in the inlet.
