Publication number: 20230341188Abstract: The double-tube heat exchanger has an outer tube and an inner tube inserted into the outer tube, is provided with an inside channel within the inner tube and an outside channel between the inner tube and the outer tube, and is configured to exchange heat between the fluid flowing in the inside channel and the fluid flowing in the outside channel. The inner tube has an uneven portion having unevenness on the outer peripheral surface. A large-diameter sealing portion is interposed between one axial end of the outer tube and the inner tube. A small-diameter sealing portion, which has a smaller diameter than the large-diameter sealing portion, is interposed between the other axial end of the outer tube and the inner tube. The outside channel and the uneven portion are arranged using the difference in axial position and diameter between the large-diameter sealing portion and the small-diameter sealing portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Applicant: Sumitomo Riko Company LimitedInventor: Eiichi DAIKAI

Patent number: 6593432Abstract: A sulfur vulcanizing system rubber composition comprises EPDM, zinc as a vulcanization accelerator activator, at least one thiazole type vulcanization accelerator serving to control the dissolution of zinc from the composition, and at least one ultra-accelerator of the thiuram or dithiocarbamate type, these accelerators being preferably combined under specified quantitative limitations. The hose using this rubber composition is particularly suitable for use in a cooling system for an automobile engine, since the dissolution of zinc into a coolant is prevented, thereby preventing the formation of any zinc compound causing the blocking of the hose, or the leakage of the coolant through the seal between the hose and any pipe connected therewith.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2000Date of Patent: July 15, 2003Assignee: Tokai Rubber Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Ayumu Ikemoto, Eiichi Daikai, Koji Senda

Patent number: 6534578Abstract: A refrigerant hose for an air conditioner has an inner wall layer formed of a laminate of an inner resin layer and an outer rubber layer bonded by its vulcanization to the resin layer. The rubber layer is of a composition comprising butyl rubber, an adhesive material based on resorcinol and a vulcanizing agent based on an alkylphenol-formaldehyde resin, and having a bromine content of at least 0.5% by weight. The hose having the inner wall layer surrounded by a reinforcing layer and an outer wall layer exhibits a high adhesive strength even at an elevated temperature between its refrigerant-impermeable resin layer and its water-impermeable rubber layer.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2000Date of Patent: March 18, 2003Assignee: Tokai Rubber Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Eiichi Daikai, Koji Senda
