  • Finned plate heat exchanger
    Patent number: 7011142
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes an extruded base member having a planar central portion and spaced-apart cooling fins extending from one side of the planar central portion. A cross-over member is located on the other side of the planar central portion and include flow passage that communicate with inlet and outlet manifolds formed in the base member.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 25, 2003
    Date of Patent: March 14, 2006
    Assignee: Dana Canada Corporation
    Inventors: Michael E. Davies, Kenneth M. A. Abels, Johny G. Burgers, Sebastien R. Gauguier
  • Lateral plate finned heat exchanger
    Patent number: 6889758
    Abstract: A stacked plate heat exchanger including a plurality of stacked plate pairs, each plate pair including first and second plates having elongate central portions surrounded by sealably joined edge portions with an elongate fluid passage defined between the central portions. Each plate pair has spaced apart inlet and outlet openings in flow communication with the fluid passage, at least some of the plate pairs having a substantially planar air-side fin plate extending peripherally outward from the joined edge portions, the fin plates of the stacked plate pairs being spaced apart and substantially parallel to each other. The fluid passage may be arranged at an angle relative to air flow direction.

  • Finned plate heat exchanger
    Patent number: 6536516
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes an extruded base member having a planar central portion and spaced-apart cooling fins extending from one side of the planar central portion. A cross-over member is located on the other side of the planar central portion and includes a plurality of spaced-apart flow channels that communicate with inlet and outlet manifolds formed in the base member or the cross-over member, or partially in both the base member and the cross-over member.
