Abstract: The invention relates to a metal rotary heat transfer assembly (1) for a rotary air heat exchanger comprising a corrugated metal strip (2) and a metal support flat strip (3) wound spirally in the circumferential direction and alternately in the radial direction on a central element (4), wherein the corrugated metal strip (2) is corrugated in the circumferential direction, and wherein in a cross-section made in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (01) of the assembly (1) said corrugated metal belt (2) comprises a set of corrugation leg portions (21) interconnected alternately by corrugation crest portions (22) and corrugation trough portions (23), and wherein a plurality of transverse through channels (5) passing through said metal rotary heat transfer assembly (1) in the direction of its longitudinal axis (01) is defined between the corrugated metal strip (2) and the metal support flat strip (3), characterized in that, louvers (24) are formed in the corrugation leg portions (21) of the corrugated m

Abstract: A heat exchanger (1) for thermally coupling a first fluid to a second fluid so as to transfer heat and in a fluidically separate manner includes a securing assembly (8) of two cover parts (9) and at least one, preferably a plurality of guide parts (11), through which duct tubes (5) of the heat exchanger (1) pass. The duct tubes (5) extend inside a housing tube (2) along the longitudinal axis of the housing tube (2). The first fluid passes through the housing tube (2) outside of the duct tubes (5), and the second fluid passes through the duct tubes (5). The duct tubes (5) may have circular or flattened cross-sections.

Abstract: A tube body for a heat exchanger may include an outer structure composed of a band material. The outer structure may include two mutually opposite wide sides and two mutually opposite narrow sides delimiting an outer structure interior space. The tube body may further include an inner structure integrally arranged on the outer structure and composed of the band material. The inner structure may be arranged in the outer structure interior space and divide the outer structure interior space into at least two fluid ducts fluidically separated from one another through which a fluid is flowable. The band material may have a material thickness and, at least in certain portions, a material thickness of a portion of the band material defining the inner structure may be less than a material thickness of a portion of the band material defining the outer structure.

Abstract: The production of a quick connection device including a metal journal that fits in a complementary manner into a connector is performed by a process including the following steps: a metal tube is extruded to form a blank of the journal extending longitudinally from a large end to a small end along a first cylindrical portion; from the first cylindrical portion, the blank narrows along a conical portion to a second cylindrical portion. The wall of the tubular blank has a thickness that is substantially constant in all three portions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heat exchanger having a cooling core consisting of a plurality of parallel, heat exchanging tubes and two manifolds provided with slots, where the ends of heat exchanging tubes are inserted in fluid connection with each manifold and each slot is defined by a slot opening and parallel-running slot walls formed from deformed wall portions of the manifold. In order to improve a rigidity of construction of the heat exchanger the outer sides of said slot are deformed inwardly relative to the manifold wall, forming concavities in the manifold outer surface, the inner sides of said slot are deformed inwardly relative to the manifold wall, forming convexities in the manifold inner surface, and the convexities comprise grooves forming the slot walls in order to accommodate at least a portion of the longitudinal edges of the end of exchanging tube. A method of manufacturing such a heat exchanger manifold is also provided.
