Patent number: 10385757Abstract: A cooling device for an internal combustion engine is provided. During assembly, the radiator and the cooler are connected by first connecting the radiator and the cooler via a lower plug-in connection as a result of a vertical joining motion and then bringing the radiator and the cooler into a slightly tilted position. The position is achieved via limited swiveling mobility of the lower plug-in connection, whereby the required degree of freedom is created so that the required distance of the radiator and of the cooler for attaching the upper first plug-in connection can be set. The upper-first plug-in connection is then attached in a final assembly step via an attachment device that is substantially orthogonal to the plane of the cooler. The limited mobility ensures that thermal or production-related tolerances due to the different operating temperatures of the radiator and the cooler are compensated during operation.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2012Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Volkswagen AktiengesellschaftInventors: Joerg Ohlhoff, Bernd Schiemann, Marco Schmidt
