| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a heat exchanger with a particular crimped joint configuration between the manifold and the main body of said heat exchanger. To achieve the joint, the manifold comprises cavities distributed close to its perimetral edge, i.e., the edge that is coupled to the main body. The main body has a stepped seat on which the manifold is supported. Around the seat, the main body has a segment externally surrounding the manifold, at least in a band adjacent to its perimetral edge. This perimetral band has slots defining strips located between said slot and the free edge such that the strips, which are plastically deformed towards the inside of the cavities of the shell, establish a joint with a very rigid and strong coupling force. |
