A transfer tube for a thermal transfer device can include at least one wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, where the inner surface forms a cavity, where the at least one wall further has a first end and a second end. The first end can be configured to couple to a terminus of a heat exchanger of the thermal transfer device. The second end can be configured to couple to a collector box of the thermal transfer device. At least a portion of the at least one wall can be disposed in a vestibule of the thermal transfer device. The cavity can be configured to simultaneously receive a first fluid that flows from the first end to the second end and a second fluid that flows from the second end to the first end.

Disclosed herein are thermal interface materials (TIMs) including memory foam cores. In an exemplary embodiment, a thermal interface material generally includes a memory foam core including a plurality of sides defining a perimeter. A heat spreader is disposed at least partially around the perimeter defined by the plurality of sides of the memory foam core.

A heat exchanger has an upper manifold with a first curved section; a lower manifold spaced from and extending parallel to the upper manifold and having a second curved section; a plurality of refrigerant tubes, and a plurality of corrugated fins. Each corrugated fin is formed by a strip having radiused portions alternating with planar portions, and the radiused portions are in contact with the respective adjacent refrigerant tubes. Each of the fins has a curve-inner edge and a curve outer edge and at least one edge of the curve-inner edge and the curve outer edge of at least one fin has a recessed portion in the planar portions that is recessed inward toward a center of the core.

The object of the invention is, among others, a heat exchanger (1) for a motor vehicle comprising: at least two manifolds (10, 20) comprising covers (11, 21) and headers (12, 22), a plurality of tubes (30) deployed in parallel to each other between the manifolds (10, 20), the tubes (30) comprising open ends received in the headers (12, 22), the length of the tubes (30) being smaller than the distance between the covers (11, 21), characterised in that, the covers (11, 21) comprise an elongated portions (13, 23) long enough to form an abutting point for one end of the tube (30), so that the second end of the tube (30) is distanced from the elongated portions (13, 23) on the opposite cover, while still maintaining fluid-tight connection with both manifolds (10, 20).

A liquid-cooled-type cooling device includes a casing having a top wall, a bottom wall, and a cooling-liquid passage, and a radiating member disposed in the cooling-liquid passage. The radiating member has a substrate and a plurality of pin-shaped fins. Longitudinally intermediate portions of the pin-shaped fins are brazed to the substrate. The substrate has a plurality of fin insertion holes, and the pin-shaped fins are inserted into the fin insertion holes of the substrate. A plurality of convex portions are integrally formed on the longitudinally intermediate portion of each pin-shaped fin. The substrate and the pin-shaped fins are provisionally fixed together by plastically deforming the convex portions such that they are crushed. In this state, the substrate and the pin-shaped fins are brazed together. The upper and lower end portions of the pin-shaped fins are brazed to the top wall and bottom wall, respectively, of the casing.

A heat pipe assembly adapted to an electronic device is provided. The heat pipe assembly includes at least one heat pipe, a bracket, and at least one fixing member. The heat pipe is disposed in a body of the electronic device. The bracket is assembled to a portion of the heat pipe, and positions and suspends the heat pipe in the housing. The fixing member is fixed to the bracket by penetrating the housing from an exterior of the housing, such that the bracket and the housing are fixed to each other. A heat pipe structure is also provided.

A method for assembling a heat exchanger device of a refrigeration unit may include pushing a heat exchanger coil of the heat exchanger device over a refrigerant collecting vessel of the heat exchanger device. The method may also include fluidically connecting the heat exchanger coil to the at least one cover of the heat exchanger device. The method may further include pushing a tubular casing of the heat exchanger device over the heat exchanger coil, and deforming the tubular casing radially inward.

The heat conduction member comprises a laminate formed by laminating a resin layer and a metal layer. The resin layer is formed from a thermally conductive resin material. The thickness of the laminate is smaller at the peripheral edge of the laminate than in the center portion of the laminate, and the thickness of the laminate is greater in the intermediate portion of the laminate than in the center portion of the laminate. An inclined surface is formed on the laminate so as to form a falling gradient from the intermediate portion toward the peripheral edge.

An arrangement for a tempering device may include a component including an opening. The arrangement may also include a tubular body through which a fluid is flowable. The tubular body may include a connecting section that may be arranged in and held by the opening of the component. At least one of the tubular body and the component may also include a plastic layer, more specifically a plastic coating, for sealing the opening.
