<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a heat exchanger keeping performance while increasing the pressure resistance strength of a header. <P>SOLUTION: The heat exchanger has a header 13 and a plurality of flat pipes 11a-11h. The header 13 extends in the vertical direction, and a refrigerant flows therein. Each of the plurality of flat pipes 11a-11h is inserted into the header 13 at different height positions, and the refrigerant flows therein. The header 13 has a first outer shell wall forming member 131 and an integrated molded member 132. The first outer shell wall forming member 131 forms a part of the outer shell wall. The integrated molded member 132 is integrally molded with a plurality of blocks 134a-134i and a second outer shell wall forming part 133. The plurality of blocks 134a-134i are located inside the assembled first outer shell wall forming member 131 and second outer shell wall forming part 133, and holes penetrating in the longitudinal direction of the header 13 are formed to each of them. The second outer shell wall forming part 133 forms the rest of the outer shell wall. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
