  • Publication number: 20200240714
    Abstract: The tube (5) of a heat exchanger (1) is produced from a strip of material (11), the strip of material (11) having two end parts joined such as to form the tube (5). The strip of material (11) forming the tube (5) is folded on itself such as to define at least one fold (13) formed by two strip portions (13a, 13b) with continuity of material. At least one strip portion (13a, 13b) of the fold (13) is a strip portion (13a, 13b) for protecting the tube (5) in the event of an impact from an element outside the tube (5) and is formed in an intermediate part (11 b) of the strip of material (11).

  • Patent number: 10605547
    Abstract: A heat exchanger is disclosed. The heat exchanger includes a protective device, mutually parallel tubes through which a first fluid circulates, and perpendicular fins connecting two successive flat tubes, a second fluid circulating between said flat tubes by passing through said fins, the protective device being apertured so as to allow the circulation of the second fluid through the fins. The protective device includes fixing spikes which are inserted forcibly between the fins.

  • Patent number: 9975168
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a heat exchanger tube (1) by bending a metal strip (11), said tube (1) having an internal partition (19) formed by joining the ends of opposing edges (11a, 11b), said partition facing a projection (50) that extends into the heat exchanger tube (1) at a joining zone (22). The method comprises the following steps: locally stamping the metal strip (11) in order to produce a projection at the joining zone (22); and bending the metal strip (11) in order to form said heat exchanger tube (1), such that the projection extends into the tube (1). The invention also relates to such a tube (1) and to a heat exchanger (3) comprising a bundle of said tubes (1).
