Support assembly for finned tube type heat exchangers
A support assembly for attaching a heat exchanger to a frame of a machine. The support assembly includes a clip configured to at least partially surround a perimeter of a tube member of the heat exchanger. The clip includes a first end portion and a second end portion configured to engage the first end portion to hold the support assembly around the tube member in a closed position. The first end portion includes a laterally-extending projection and a laterally facing surface spaced apart from the projection by a recessed area. The second end portion defines a recess configured to receive a portion of the projection.
HEAT EXCHANGER ASSEMBLY AND OUTDOOR UNIT OF REFRIGERATING APPARATUS
A heat exchanger assembly includes a header extending in a longitudinal direction, a plurality of heat transfer tubes aligned along the longitudinal direction of the header and connected to the header, a plurality of fins secured to the heat transfer tubes, a first corrective member and a second corrective member. The first corrective member extends along the longitudinal direction of the header on a downstream side of the heat transfer tubes or the header along a direction of an air flow. The second corrective member extends along the longitudinal direction of the header on an upstream side of the heat transfer tubes or the header along the direction of the air flow. A sandwiched object is at least any one of the heat transfer tubes, the fins, and the header. The sandwiched object is sandwiched by the first and second corrective members.
Tube stay installation assembly
A tube stay mounting assembly includes a press assembly having a housing and a top block configured to flatten fins on a first surface of a finned tube. A press arm is operable to move the top block vertically with respect to the housing. A bottom block is configured to flatten fins on a second surface of the finned tube when the press arm is rotated and moves the top block downwardly. A tube stay clamping assembly includes a clamping housing configured to receive a tube stay having a top, bottom, rear, and front walls, the tube stay being configured to receive a flattened portion of the finned tube. A clamping arm is connected by linking arms to a clamping block, the clamping block configured to engage and force the front wall into snap-fit engagement with the top wall of the tube stay.

HEAT EXCHANGER AND HEAT EXCHANGER MANUFACTURING METHOD
The present disclosure relates to a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes: a plurality of tube panels including a tube elongated in one direction; a pair of header modules coupled to both ends of the plurality of tube panels; and a pair of header cases having an open side, providing a space therein, and having the header module inserted in the space such that the tube panels communicate with the spaces, in which the header modules is composed of a plurality of header blocks stacked and coupled to each other, and an insertion hole in which the tube panel is inserted is formed at each of the plurality of header blocks. Accordingly, it is possible to increase the efficiency of manufacturing a heat exchanger, manufacture a heat exchanger flexibly in a custom-made type in accordance with the size of a product having the heat exchanger, reduce tolerance due to brazing, and improve stability of a product.

CLIP FOR TUBE ELEMENT
In a clip for holding a tube element, a first fitting part is provided on one side surface of the clip, and a second fitting part is provided on the other side surface. A back surface holding part is provided on an open side of the clip, and a front surface holding part is provided on an unopened side. Furthermore, a tongue piece is provided between the back surface holding part and the front surface holding part.
Radiator and lateral bump stop therefor
A radiator includes a radiator frame, an array of tube assemblies each including a coolant tube and a tube clip supported in the radiator frame, and a lateral bump stop fitted between the array of tube assemblies and the radiator frame. The lateral bump stop includes cushions arranged in a staggered cushion pattern complementary to a staggered packing pattern of the tube assemblies with each of the cushions in contact with the tube clip of one of the tube assemblies.
