The invention relates to a fluid channel for a heat exchanger, comprising a metal sheet, wherein the metal sheet has at least one core region of an aluminum base alloy and at least one structure arranged inside the fluid channel, wherein the structure lies against a surface of the metal sheet and can be soldered to the metal sheet in a flux-free manner by way of a first soldering location in a soldering operation, and wherein a soldering region of the metal sheet and a counterpart lie against one another and can be soldered to one another in the same soldering operation as a second soldering location while wetting with flux, wherein an open path between the two soldering locations exists before the soldering operation.

An apparatus for manufacturing a bracket-integrated double-layer door impact beam is provided. The apparatus includes a lower mold having a lower cavity formed with a base material molded to have a U-shaped cross section and a predetermined length. The base material is seated on the lower cavity. A lower electrode terminal is disposed in the lower mold to contact the base material. An upper mold has an upper cavity therein and is coupled with the lower mold to pressurize both end portions of the U-shaped cross section of the base material inward to form the base material with an O-shaped cross section. An upper electrode terminal is disposed in the upper mold to contact the base material.

A method for manufacturing a refrigerant guide tube of a heat exchanger and a refrigerant guide tube manufactured using the method and a heat exchanger with the refrigerant guide tube are disclosed. The refrigerant guide tube includes tube body and channels extending through a wall of the tube body. The tube body is formed by a butt joint of side edges of more than one bar-shaped plate materials along the length direction. The method allows forming the refrigerant channels of the guide tube before or during forming the tube body when the method is used to manufacture the guide tube, so as to avoid directly forming the channels on the tube body and make the process of manufacture the guide tube simpler and more convenient.

A method and apparatus manufactures a closed structure part without flange having a curvature and welded edges along a longitudinal direction of the part and further having a varying cross-sectional shape, from two metal plates. Each of two metal plates provided with a curvature along the longitudinal direction of the plate and provided with both ends in a width direction of the plate, are press-formed such that a folding line is formed at positions corresponding to a non-welded bent edge in a cross section of the part, and stacked on each other vertically such that their bulging sides face outward. Their left ends and right ends in the width direction are mutually welded along the longitudinal direction to form welded edges.
