  • Patent number: 6964297
    Abstract: A heat exchanger design is described which includes header plates, apertures, seals and flow tubes. A plurality of apertures in at least one header plate are configured to allow a flow tube to be inserted into or removed from the aperture as a whole at an angle. A seal is included within the aperture and is supported by differing diameters of the aperture wall. The seal engages the flow tube in a manner to allow high pressure operation of the heat exchanger when the flow tube is perpendicular to the header plate.

  • Patent number: 5433268
    Abstract: An improved radiator construction comprising a cooling tube having a barbed end, preferably with an adjacent collar, spaced apart sufficient to engage an elastomeric seal. The seal and tube are positioned in the opening of a radiator or heat exchanger header so that the tube barb and collar and the engaged seal cooperate to retain the cooling tube in the header.
