Abstract: A soldered cooler block, especially for a charge air cooler/coolant cooler, is constructed in a packet-type manner. Cooling channels for a liquid coolant are arranged in the cooler block in a crossways manner in first layers, and gas channels for a gas which is to be cooled are arranged in a crossways manner in second layers. The cooling channels are respectively formed by two wall areas which are arranged at a distance and by intermediate strips and connection strips that include groove profiles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plate-shaped heat exchanger for a cooling device comprising at least one heat exchanger package, in particular for a motor vehicle, consisting of a plurality of openings for accommodating a pipe conducting a coolant, wherein each opening is surrounded by an passage and a plurality of projections are distributed between the passages for the heat exchange with the medium to be cooled. In order to allow a high performance increase of a cooling device, yet a low increase in pressure loss of the charge air, a plurality of projections are arranged around an passage, wherein the projections have a shape that assures deliberate heat conduction from the projections to the passage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stacked-plate heat exchanger, in particular a charge-air cooler, having a plurality of elongate plates (1-3;21-23;51-53) which are stacked on top of one another and are connected, in particular soldered, to one another, which plates (1-3;21-23;51-53) delimit a cavity (55-57) for conducting a medium to be cooled, for example charge air, in the longitudinal direction of the plates, and a further cavity (63-65) for conducting a coolant, wherein the plates (1-3;21-23;51-53) have in each case one inlet port and one outlet port for the medium which is to be cooled. In order to provide a stacked-plate heat exchanger which can be produced cost-effectively and has a long service life even at high temperatures, according to the invention, at least one coolant port (14-16) extends partially around a port (12) for the medium to be cooled.

Abstract: A collector tank for a heat exchanger of an automotive cooling system includes a one-piece tank element comprising a first collecting region and a second collecting region, wherein at least one of the first collecting region and the second collecting region comprises a projection; a base that closes off the collecting regions of the tank element, the base comprising at least one channel; a sealing element disposed within the at least one channel; and a stress generating means located adjacent to the channel and clamping at least a portion of the one-piece tank element to the base such that the sealing element is compressed between the projection and the base within the channel. The stress generating means is a means selected from the group consisting of a tensile stress generating means, a compressive stress generating means, and a combination thereof.

Abstract: A collecting tank for a heat exchanger pertaining to a motor vehicle cooling installation includes a tank element. The tank element includes at least two collecting regions for receiving fluid, the receiving regions being embodied together as a single component and being outwardly sealed by a sealing element, and a bottom for closing the collecting regions. A sealing arrangement is provided between the tank element and the bottom, between two adjacent collecting regions. The sealing arrangement includes exactly one sealing element which, in addition to sealing between the two collecting regions, is used to seal the arrangement towards the outside. The sealing element is preferably arranged in a plane in the collecting tank, especially in a continuous channel.

Abstract: A device for cooling, in particular electronic components, in particular of a processor unit, having an evaporator for the absorption of heat in a coolant in particular by means of evaporation; a gas cooler for cooling of the coolant in particular by means of condensation; a first coolant conduit for communicating connection of an evaporator outlet with a gas cooler inlet; a second coolant conduit for communicating connection of a gas cooler outlet with an evaporator inlet; a filling device for filling of the device with coolant; and the filling device is arranged on the evaporator or on the gas cooler.
