Publication number: 20170248371Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger including exchange components and fluid flow components (2, 2?, 3), at least one fluid collecting tank (11, 11?) into which the exchange components open out (2, 2?, 3), at least one collecting plate (10) for holding the exchange components (2, 2?, 3) and a housing (4) for accommodating the exchange components (2, 2?, 3). The exchanger is characterized in that it includes a flange (5) for fixing the collecting tank (11, 11?) on the housing (4). Thanks to the invention, the transmission of stresses from the flange (5) to the collecting plate (10) is avoided, which means that a thinner collecting plate (10) is able to be formed.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2017Publication date: August 31, 2017Inventors: Paul GARRET, Eric PINIARSKI

Patent number: 9599412Abstract: The heat exchanger (1) of the invention has exchange elements (2, 3?) and a casing (4) for accommodating the exchange elements (2, 3?). The casing (4) is formed by a plurality of walls connected together. The exchanger (1) is characterized in that the casing (4) has two L-shaped walls. The casing (4) is easier to manufacture and store.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2009Date of Patent: March 21, 2017Assignee: VALEO SYSTEMES THERMIQUESInventors: Paul Garret, Yoann Naudin, Philippe Faille

Patent number: 9297594Abstract: The invention relates to a collector plate (10) for a heat exchanger comprising a web (12) equipped with openings for the passage of tubes of the heat exchanger and a groove (14), known as a receiving groove, to accept a header tank cover, able to accept a gasket (104) and part of the cover and having a base (18) and two flanges, respectively an inner flange (16) and an outer flange (20) which are connected to the base (18). The inner flange (16) is connected to the web (12) and is subdivided into at least two disjointed portions, the two disjointed portions are separated by at least one recess (30), and the recess (30) between the two disjointed portions of the inner flange (16) is at least in the region of a site of the collector plate (10) that is intended to accept a bent part of the gasket (104). The invention also relates to a heat exchanger comprising the collector plate (10).Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2009Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: VALEO SYSTEMES THERMIQUESInventors: Christian Riondet, Jean-Marc Lesueur, Alan Day, Paul Garret, Eric Piniarski, Claire Piniarski
