Publication number: 20130206376Abstract: A plurality of heat-exchanger tubes, each of which has an inlet fin formed on a side surface on the air inlet side of a flattened hollow tube and extending upstream of air along the flow of air and an outlet fin formed on the side surface on the air outlet side of the hollow tube and extending downstream of the air along the flow of the air are arranged at regular intervals in such a manner that their oblong planes face one another, an upper header which supplies a first heat exchange medium is attached on top of the heat-exchanger tubes, and an lower header which collects the first heat exchange medium is attached at the bottom of the heat-exchanger tubes to form a heat exchanger.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2012Publication date: August 15, 2013Applicants: THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, KANDORI INDUSTRY LTD., WAKI FACTORY INC.Inventors: Naoki SHIKAZONO, Tsunehito WAKE, Shiro IKUTA, Yasuhito WAKE, Isamu KANDORI

Publication number: 20130032320Abstract: A plurality of heat-exchange tubes 30 each including a flat pipe including a groove 36 and wavelike depression-and-projection portions 33, 34 are arranged in parallel in such a manner that each of respective longitudinal directions thereof is a vertical direction, and a heat exchange medium is made to flow from an inlet 31 at each lower portion to an outlet 32 at each upper portion. Guide walls 43, 44 are provided in a shell 40, and exhaust gas is made to flow an inlet 41 at an upper portion to an outlet 42 at a lower portion, thereby making the exhaust gas meander in flow paths 46a to 46d and a space between the plurality of heat-exchange tubes 30.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2011Publication date: February 7, 2013Applicants: THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, M K SALE CO., LTD., KANDORI INDUSTRY LTD., WAKI FACTORY INC.Inventors: Naoki Shikazono, Tsunehito Wake, Shiro Ikuta, Isamu Kandori, Kazuaki Iwamoto

Patent number: 8266900Abstract: A plurality of flat tubes formed as a tube having notches by linearly cutting upper and lower parts from a hollow flat circular doughnut shape are stacked to structure a tube laminate. It is attached to a case so that a notch aligns with the notch and faces upward by an exhaust inflow end plate and that a notch aligns with the notch and faces downward by an exhaust outflow end plate. A cutoff valve is provided at an exhaust outflow end of an exhaust communication tube passing through the center of the tube laminate by heat insulation. While an internal combustion engine is warming up, the cutoff valve is closed to cause the exhaust to flow in gaps of the respective flat tubes from upward to downward as a whole and also a heat exchange medium is caused to flow in the respective flat tubes from downward to upward as a whole to have heat exchanged between the exhaust and the heat exchange medium to recover the exhaust heat.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2008Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignees: The University of Tokyo, Futaba Industrial Co., Ltd., M-K Sale Co., Ltd., Kandori Industry Ltd., Waki Factory Inc.Inventors: Naoki Shikazono, Koji Matsuoka, Isamu Kandori, Shiro Ikuta, Tsunehito Wake
