  • Patent number: 11139721
    Abstract: A motor component for a linear motor, in particular a primary part and/or stator, which comprises a laminated core and a cooling body, wherein at least two grooves are arranged in the laminated core in order for at least two windings and/or at least two permanent magnets to be mounted in the grooves, wherein the grooves are arranged in parallel in one plane in the laminated core. In order to be able to produce good cooling and nevertheless provide a cost-effective motor component, the cooling body is connected to the laminated core and arranged parallel to the arrangement of the grooves, wherein the laminated core and the cooling body are adhesively bonded to one another.

  • Patent number: 9486863
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing slots (11) in a tube wall (10), wherein a single die plate (2) provided with notches (20) is pushed into the tube (1) and punches (5) arranged in a row pierce the tube wall from the outside and in the process produce the slots (10), whereupon the die plate (2) is rotated about its longitudinal axis out of a working position and into a withdrawal position and is pulled out of the tube (1). Economical production of the slots in tubes having different cross-sectional shapes is achieved according to the invention in that during the slotting operation the tube wall (30) is gripped from the outside and held and is stabilized from the inside against two opposing support strips (25) by way of the die plate (2).

  • Patent number: 9308664
    Abstract: Methods for producing slots in tube walls are described and illustrated, along with devices for producing slots in tube walls. In some cases, a first number of punches arranged in a row pierce through the tube wall and in so doing produce slots, followed by another number of punches piercing through the tube wall in such a way that the slots produced by the first number of punches alternate with respect to the slots produced by the second number of punches. Also, in some cases an internal support is used, whereby small slots are first produced in the tube wall while the internal support is within the tube. After the internal support is removed, the slots are widened to finished dimensions. The internal support can include upper and lower parts designed to engage one another in a sawtooth or undulating manner.

  • Patent number: 8561451
    Abstract: A system and method for producing flat tubes is described and illustrated. The flat tubes can be produced from at least one strip of endless band material having at least one wall part and an inner part formed with corrugations on a roller train provided with roller pairs, with the strip running in a longitudinal direction through the rollers and being shaped. The inner part of the flat tube can be formed with corrugations placed between the shaped wall parts, after which the closure of the flat tube is carried out. Production of the flat tubes can include forming spaced apart band thinning lines running in the longitudinal direction of the strip, and forming corrugation peaks and corrugation troughs at the band thinning lines.

  • Patent number: 8474517
    Abstract: A heat exchanger, such as a condenser or gas cooler, having a collecting tube which has a wall and which can be produced by deformation of a single metal strip, which collecting tube has, in its base, at least one row of openings in which heat exchanger tubes, each of which has two narrow and two wide sides, are fastened at their ends. The collecting tube can have at least two chambers, which adjoin one another approximately at a central longitudinal axis, and also a reinforcement, which is formed by the longitudinal edge strips of the metal strip.

  • Patent number: 8353335
    Abstract: Flat heat exchanger tubes having two narrow and two broad sides are shown and described, wherein the flat tubes can be manufactured from two continuous strips having a relatively large curve on one longitudinal edge of the strips and having a relatively small curve on the other longitudinal edge of the strips. The two strips can be arranged laterally transposed with respect to one another to form the wall of the flat tubes, so that the relatively large curve of the longitudinal edge of one strip holds in itself the relatively small curve of the longitudinal edge of the other strip to form the narrow sides of the flat tubes. The strips can be formed with at least one further contoured portion which extends in the longitudinal direction of the flat tubes and which improves cohesion of the flat tube.

  • Publication number: 20110005738
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a soldered flat tube for condensers and/or for evaporators in air-conditioning systems, in particular in motor vehicles, which can be produced by deformation of endless aluminum sheet-metal strips, has two narrow sides and two wide sides and also has inner passages with a hydraulic diameter which is greater than or equal to 0.254 mm, and the flat tube has a tube wall thickness of less than 0.25 mm, wherein both narrow sides are reinforced by having at least double the thickness of the remaining tube wall thickness.

The collecting tube can have at least two chambers, which adjoin one another approximately at a central longitudinal axis, and also a reinforcement, which is formed by the longitudinal edge strips of the metal strip, of the base between the heat exchanger tubes. To improve the internal pressure stability and also to reduce costs, the reinforcement which is formed from the longitudinal edge strips can extend at least over 1/3 of a surface area of the base.

  • Patent number: 7600559
    Abstract: A plate heat exchanger for exchanging heat between first and second media, including a plurality of first heat exchanger plates alternately stacked with a plurality of second heat exchanger plates between a base plate and a cover plate. The first and second heat exchanger plates have at least four passages therethrough which align to define a first collecting channel and a first distribution channel for the first media and a second collecting channel and a second distribution channel for the second media. First flow channels for the first media each are defined in a space between one side of the first heat exchanger plate and a facing one side of the adjacent second heat exchanger plate. Second flow channels for the second media each are defined between the other side of the first heat exchanger plate and the other side of the adjacent second heat exchanger plate.
