  • Patent number: 10871335
    Abstract: A heat exchanger may include a first collecting tank and a second collecting tank. The first collecting tank may include a first collecting pipe having a first collecting pipe opening for letting in a fluid and a second collecting pipe having a second collecting pipe opening for discharging the fluid. The second collecting tank may be arranged opposite the first collecting tank and may include a third collecting pipe and a fourth collecting pipe. The heat exchanger may also include a plurality of heat exchanger pipes fluidically connecting the first collecting pipe to the third collecting pipe and the second collecting pipe to the fourth collecting pipe. The heat exchanger may also include a separating wall arranged in each of the first collecting pipe and the second collecting pipe respectively dividing each into a first pipe section and a second pipe section.

  • Publication number: 20200200492
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiving box (2) for a heat exchanger (1) for receiving and fluidically supplying tube bodies (3) of the heat exchanger (1), wherein the receiving box (2) has a box body (9), which limits at least one duct (12), which is fluidically connected to receptacles (11), in which the tube bodies (3) are received. A simplified production and/or an increased mechanical stability of the receiving box (2) are/is attained in that the box body (9) forms an injection tube (17), which is separated from the duct (12) and which is fluidically connected to at least one of the at least one ducts (12) via an outlet opening (18). The invention further relates to a heat exchanger (1) comprising such a receiving box (2).

  • Patent number: 10393183
    Abstract: A bearing location for rotatably supporting a shaft on a carrier structure about a rotation axis may include a bearing opening disposed in the carrier structure. The bearing opening may include an cylindrical inner bearing face on an inner periphery arranged coaxially with the rotation axis. The inner bearing face may interact with a cylindrical outer bearing face disposed on an outer periphery of the shaft. An annular seal may be arranged coaxially with the rotation axis and may include a labyrinth seal have at least one annular rib and at least one annular groove. An inner sealing gap and an outer sealing gap may be disposed radially between walls of the rib and walls of the groove. The inner sealing gap and the outer sealing gap may each extend annularly and may be arranged coaxially with the rotation axis.
