Abstract: A header-tank assembly (100a) includes a tank (10a), a gasket (20a) and a header (30a). The tank (10a) includes a plurality of first engagement elements (12a) configured thereon. The gasket (20a) includes a plurality of second engagement elements (22a) configured thereon. The second engagement elements (22a) are complimentary to and engages with the first engagement elements (12a) to mount the gasket (20a) along a periphery of a foot portion (14a) of the tank. The header (30a) is crimped to the foot portion (14a) of the tank (10a) with the gasket (20a) disposed between the header (30a) and the foot portion (14a) of the tank (10a).

Abstract: A protection device 1 for a heat exchanger, comprising a grid 10 with an upstream surface 11 and a downstream surface 12, both located on opposite sides of the grid 10, the grid 10 being attachable to the heat exchanger 40 with attachment means 11 so that the downstream surface 12 can face a side of the heat exchanger 40, wherein the protection device 1 further comprises a shock absorber 20 attached to the grid 10 so that the shock absorber 20 least partly protrudes from the downstream surface 12 of the grid 10.

Abstract: A protection system for a heat exchanger is disclosed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The protection system includes at least one net with a first pair of opposite sides and a second pair of opposite sides. The at least one net is deployed over at least one heat exchanger core to cover at least a portion of the at least one heat exchanger core, wherein the at least one net is mounted to either one of a pair of side plates of the at least one heat exchanger core and a pair of headers of the heat exchanger by means of a plurality of engagement elements to deploy the at least one net over the at least one heat exchanger core.

Abstract: A protective grid system for ducts of a cooling module of a vehicle is disclosed. The system includes housing and at least one protective grid. The housing includes at least one inlet connected to the ducts for receiving air that had extracted heat from a region to be cooled and at least one outlet for egress of the air there through. The at least one protective grid is mounted over at least one of the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet to prevent articles of a predetermined size from entering inside the ducts of the cooling module while still permitting egress of air there through.
