- first criterion and second criterion etc.
- it is a simple indexing to differentiate and name elements or parameters or criteria close but not identical.
- This indexing does not imply a priority of one element, parameter or criterion with respect to another, and it is easy to interchange such denominations without departing from the scope of the present description.
- This indexing does not imply either an order in time for example to appreciate such or such criteria.
- FIG. 1 shows a heat exchanger 1, generally of parallelepipedal shape, comprising a beam formed of a multitude of tubes 2 to inside which can circulate a first heat transfer fluid.
- the tubes 2 are of oval or oblong section, defined by a major axis and a minor axis and are arranged parallel to each other so as to form a row of tubes 2.
- the tubes 2 and the spacers 6 are generally made of metal.
- the tubes 2 and the spacers 6 forming the bundle may be fixed together by brazing.
- the spacers 6 are then called spacers and are for example corrugated or crenellated strips, placed between the tubes 2 and fixed to said tubes 2 by soldering. This is called a brazed beam.
- the tubes 2 and the spacers 6 forming the bundle can be fixed together by mechanical fastening.
- the spacers 6 are then called fins and are for example metal plates having orifices in which the tubes 2 pass.
- the tubes 2 are fixed in these orifices by expansion of their diameter. This is called a mechanical beam.
- the heat exchanger 1 also comprises two manifolds 3 or water boxes, a manifold 3 being disposed at each end of the tubes 2. These manifolds 3 each comprise a header plate 4 and a cover 8 coming to cover the header plate 4 and close the manifold 3 so as to form a chamber 30 (visible in Figure 2) in which can circulate the first heat transfer fluid. These collectors 3 allow the collection and / or distribution of the first heat transfer fluid so that it circulates in the tubes 2.
- the collector plate 4 is sealingly connected between the collector 3 and the bundle of tubes 2.
- the collector plate 4 may be of generally rectangular shape with two long sides and two small sides.
- the collector plate 4 also comprises a multitude of orifices having a shape corresponding to the shape of the section of the tubes 2 and adapted to receive the ends of the tubes 2. The orifices are therefore arranged in a row parallel to the large side of the collector plate 4.
- the tubes 2 can be fixed to the header plate 4 in a sealed manner by soldering, which is called a brazed heat exchanger.
- the tubes 2, the spacers 6 and the collector plates 4 may be made of a metal material including aluminum or aluminum alloy in order to have good thermal conductivity and allow brazing.
- the cover 8 can be made of plastic material.
- the tubes 2 can be attached to the header plate 4 mechanically with the intervention of a seal, it is called mechanical heat exchanger.
- the manifold 3 as a whole that is to say the manifold plate 4 and the cover 8, can be made of plastic.
- the collector plate 4 has a peripheral groove 42 on its entire periphery.
- the cover 8 has lateral walls 81 inserted into the throat. peripheral 42 and compressing a seal 44 inserted in the peripheral groove 42 to ensure sealing.
- the cover 8 can in particular be held against the collector plate 4 by crimping tabs 43 disposed on the outer rim 41 of the peripheral groove 42 and bent over a shoulder 80 of the cover 8 disposed at the ends of its side walls 81.
- external rim 41 of the peripheral groove 42 here means the flange which is on the outside of the manifold 3, that is to say the furthest from the orifices of the header plate 4.
- the side walls 81 of the cover 8 comprise protruding retaining elements 82 that bear against the collector plate 4.
- These retainers 82 form stops and prevent the cover 8 and more particularly the ends of its side walls 81 to sink beyond a certain limit in the peripheral groove 42.
- These retaining elements 82 are arranged on the side walls 81 of the cover 8 at a distance from the ends of these side walls 81 so that the seal 44 is sufficiently compressed to seal while preventing it from being excessively compressed which could damage it.
- the retaining elements 82 bear on its two long sides and / or its two small sides simultaneously to retain the depression of the cover 8.
- these retaining elements 82 are made of material with the cover 8 and can thus be made at the same time as the cover 8, for example by molding when the cover 8 is made of plastics material.
- the retaining elements 82 are made on the external face of the lateral walls 81.
