Abstract: A disinfection device with a pressure vessel which has an interior space for receiving a medium, and with at least one radiating device which is arranged such that it emits radiation into the interior space of the pressure vessel, wherein one or several surfaces of the interior space of the pressure vessel are formed at least partially as a reflection surface for the radiation. A particularly reliable sterilization of medical or dental compressed air in the pressure vessel is made possible. One or several disinfection devices according to the invention can be provided in a compressor system for providing compressed air for dental applications, in a dental treatment device with a compressed air device and/or in a connection device with one or several tube sections for guiding compressed air for dental applications.

Abstract: A process for producing a turbulence device (1) which is to be mounted in at least one flow duct of a heat exchanger of a motor vehicle includes the steps of, in a first process step, at least one shaping operation is used to produce at least one substantially meandering turbulence device (30) with substantially smooth walls (2) from a substantially continuously planar sheared strip (9), wherein a longitudinal direction (RLR) of the walls runs substantially parallel to a forward feed direction (VSR) of the sheared strip (9), and in a second process step, wall sections are deformed at least by an angle (?) in relation to the forward feed direction (VSR), in such a way that undercuts (3) are produced in relation to the forward feed direction (VSR, RLR), wherein the substantially continuously planar sheared strip (9) is cut into turbulence devices (1) of predetermined lengths before carrying out the second process step.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing a turbulence apparatus and to an apparatus for producing the turbulence apparatus which is to be held in at least one flow duct of a heat exchanger of a motor vehicle, comprising the following process steps: in a first process step, at least one shaping operation is used to produce at least one substantially meandering turbulence apparatus (30) with substantially smooth walls (2) from a substantially continuously planar sheet-metal strip (9), wherein a longitudinal direction (LR) of the walls (2) runs substantially parallel to a forward feed direction (VR) of the sheet-metal strip (9).

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-channel flat tube (1) for a heat exchanger, especially for use in motor vehicles, which comprises a first lateral wall (14), a second lateral wall (15) substantially parallel to the first lateral wall (14), and at least one curved end section (17). A projection (9) from the material of the lateral wall (14, 15) is configured on at least one lateral wall (14, 15) on the inside facing a fluid flow in the interior of the flat tube (1). On the outside facing away from the fluid, the lateral wall (14, 15) is substantially planar in the area of the projection (9).

Abstract: The invention relates to a soldered heat exchanger network comprising folded flat multichamber tubes and wave-like ribs that are provided with fins. The multichamber tubes encompass at least two chambers, each of which is formed by folded webs that are soldered in the interior of the multichamber tube. According to the invention, the wave-like ribs (13, 14) are provided with fin-free fields (17a, 17b; 18a, 18b) in the area of the web or webs (7, 8).

Abstract: A multi-chamber tube for a heat exchanger arrangement of a motor vehicle has at least two chamber sections which extend parallel to each other and side-by-side. Different liquid or gaseous heat transfer media are used in the chamber sections which have widths significantly greater than their heights. At least one chamber section has a greater height than at least one other chamber section. The multi-chamber tube is used in a coolant radiator and charge air cooler combination.
